The Board Meeting had come to an end. Bob started to stand up and knocked into the table, spilling his coffee over his notes. ''How embarrassing! I am getting so clumsy(笨拙的) in my old age. ''

Everyone had a good laugh, and soon we were all telling stories of our most embarrassing moments. It came around to Frank, who sat quietly listening to the others. Someone said, ''Come on, Frank. Tell us your most embarrassing moment. ''

Frank laughed and began to tell us of his childhood. ''I grew up in San Pedro. My Dad was a fisherman. He had his own boat, but it was hard making a living on the sea. He worked hard and would stay out until he caught enough to feed a big family. Not just enough for our family, but also for his Mom and Dad and the other kids that were still at home. ''

He looked at us and said, ''I wish you could have met my Dad. He was strong from pulling the nets and fighting the seas for his catch. When you got close to him, he smelled like the ocean. No matter how much my mother washed his clothes, they would still smell of the sea and of fish. ''

Frank's voice dropped a bit. ''When the weather was bad, he would drive me to school. He had this old truck that he used in his fishing business. That truck was older than he was. Half the time, he would slam to a stop and the old truck would belch(喷出) a cloud of smoke. He would pull right up in front, and it seemed like everybody would be standing around and watching. Then he would lean over and give me a goodbye kiss on the cheek and tell me to be a good boy. It was so embarrassing for me. Here, I was twelve years old. I was a big boy and my Dad would lean over and kiss me goodbye! ''

He paused and then went on, ''I remember the day I decided I was too old for a goodbye kiss. When we got to the school and came to a stop, he had his usual big smile. He started to lean toward me, but I put my hand up and said, 'No, Dad. ' ''

Answer

Paragraph 1:

It was the first time I had ever talked to him that way, and he had this surprised look on his face. I said, ''Dad, I'm too old for a goodbye kiss on the cheek. I'm too old for any kind of kiss. '' My Dad looked at me for the longest time, and his eyes started to tear up. ''You're right, '' he said. ''You are a big boy…a man. I won't kiss you anymore. ''

Paragraph 2:

Frank got a funny look on his face, and the tears began to well up in his eyes. And he spoke. ''It wasn't long after that when my Dad went to sea and never came back. It was a bad weather day when most of the fishermen stayed in, but not Dad. He had a big family to feed. The ocean has swallowed him up.''

【解析】

这是一篇读后续写。文章讲述了一个故事。董事会结束时Bob不小心打翻了咖啡，他觉得很尴尬。后来，大家都开始讲述自己记忆中最尴尬的场景。

续写分为两部分。第一部分的开头是：那是我第一次用那样的方式和他讲话，他脸上出现了惊讶的表情……所以可以接着写：我说：“爸爸，我已经足够大，不要在我脸颊上吻别了！那已经不适合我了。”父亲看着我，眼睛里涌出了泪水。他说：“你是对的。你现在已经是个大男孩了，不，你已经是个男子汉了，我以后不会在亲吻你了。”

第二段的开头是：弗兰克脸上出现了一个滑稽的表情，然后泪水模糊了他的双眼……所以可以接着写：他接着说：“在那之后不久，我爸爸去出海就再也没有回来过了。那天的天气不好，所有的渔人都待在家，除了我的父亲，因为他有一大家要养。海洋吞没了他。”

续写是要注意所写内容要符合故事逻辑，基础时态是一般过去时，但直接引语要根据具体情况来判断。
