作为一种将阅读和写作紧密结合的新题型,读后续写在2016 年10 月浙江省高考英语试题中首次亮相,之后2020 年至2022 年新高考Ⅰ卷和新高考Ⅱ卷也采用了该新题型,随着越来越多的省份采用读后续写新题型,如何提高读后续写的分数成为了师生需要迫切解决的问题。读后续写的评分主要从内容、语言和结构三个维度进行。学生的续作想要拿高分,在内容方面要在原文的基础上创造出新的内容,并与原文保持内容上的有效协同;在语言方面,要准确恰当地使用丰富的词汇和句型;在结构方面,要与原文有逻辑地衔接,并能够使用恰当的衔接手段使续作完整、连贯。在三个评分要点中,语言是基础,有了语言做支撑,构建的情节才可能有逻辑地被表达出来。

然而,反观学生续作,有的学生词不达意,有的学生使用的词汇、句法简单且单一,换句话说,语言的积累和运用能力在很大程度上限制了学生们发散性思维的展开和创新性思维的呈现。因此,本文将基于过去7 年的读后续写高考真题,提炼总结出不同主题和场景下的精彩句型,为同学们建构一个读后续写微型语料库,旨在助力学生积累丰富语言,提升语言能力,进而促进学生创造性思维的表达。

一、考情梳理

截止到2022 年,历年高考真题中,读后续写一共出现了13 次,表1 分析了每一道考题的体裁、话题、主题语境以及主题语境下的场景。

表1 浅析近7 年高考英语读后续写题

基于以上分析,不难发现读后续写涉及的场景可以归纳为以下几类:脱险类、助人类、个人成长类、家庭生活类、爱护动物类,每一个场景下又可以继续细分,具体如表2 所示。

表2 近7 年读后续写题场景归纳

一个语义场内存在某些特定且相关的语言表达,这些表达汇聚在一起承担着特定的语义功能,因此笔者从以上微场景中提炼了一些常用语料,构建了一个读后续写微型语料库,供同学们参考使用,旨在解决续作中言语匮乏、词不达意等问题。
