Question

阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。

The darkness was gathering as she wobbled(颤颤巍巍)in high heels (高跟鞋) along the side of the highway. The car had come to an unexpected stop, and like a normal teenager she did the only thing she could think of..get out and walk.

It was cold and late, and home was far away. This could be a long night. If only someone would stop and offer her a ride. She prayed for help and dragged herself forward.

The lights of a truck shone from behind as it approached. "Maybe he will stop," she hoped. The brake lights flashed on as it stopped. Next moment, the car door opened. A wordless invitation was extended and she understood. Without hesitation, the girl climbed up into the seat and closed the door. Slowly the truck pulled back onto the road and disappeared into the night, never to be seen again.

I woke up in a cold sweat, frightened. Was it a dream or was it a vision? It was unbelievably real, and the girl was my daughter! I jumped from my bed and ran to her room. Her bed was empty.

I stood in horror trying to think why she hadn't come home. As the mental fog began to lift, I remembered she was visiting her friend that evening. Perhaps she stayed there for the night. It was 1:30 a.m., but I raced to the phone and dialed a number.

"Hello?" The voice was heavy with sleep.

"Hey. Sorry to wake you. Becki didn't come home tonight and I was wondering if she stayed at your place."

"No, she left here a few hours ago. She should have been home at least by midnight!" The voice on the other end began to reflect my own panic.

Over the next forty-five minutes I alternated between lying in pray and pacing the floor in anxiety.

At 2:15 a.m. lights appeared as a car turned up our long driveway. I could tell immediately that it was not my daughter's car.

Answer

My face pressed against the window and found it was hard to breathe. The car pulled in front of the house, out of it emerged my precious daughter, making her way up the steps. Tears stinging my eyes, I threw open the door, pulled her inside and hugged her tightly. The dream was just too real and I could hardly believe I was now having my daughter in my hug. I wondered if it was because my pray was answered. Then through my blurred vision I saw a lady stepping out of the car.

"Mom, she gave me a ride home." Becki said. "My car broke down on the highway and if she hadn’t given me a ride, I would never have made it home in my high heels at midnight." she continued, exposing her blistered ankles. My heart shuddered at the thought of what panic she experienced when she staggered alone along the dark highway at night. She must be an angel for Becki! I approached the lady and invited her inside. Now, I was definitely grateful to her for extending a helping hand.

【解析】

这是一篇读后续写。文章讲述了作者梦到自己的女儿在高速路上打车的场景。醒来后发现女儿真的不在家，而且作者从女儿的朋友处确认她已经离开，本该最迟在午夜回到家。作者很担心，在家里焦急地踱步。后来发现有车靠近家的方向，但不是女儿的车。

根据第一段的开头“我把脸凑在窗户边去看，感觉很难呼吸”可知，后面可以接着写：车最终在作者家门口停下来，作者的女儿从车里出来，毫发无损。作者松了口气，并告诉了女儿她的噩梦。在与女儿谈话时，作者注意到了车里的女人，等。

根据第二段的开头“Becki说‘妈妈，她是开车送我回家的人。’”可知，后面可以接着写：作者女儿给她解释坐别人车回来的原因，以及事情的经过。作者看到女儿受伤的脚踝很心痛，同时邀请女士进屋，对她帮助女儿的行为表示感谢，等。

用五个以上的关键词加大了写作难度。考生应熟悉关键词，以便在适当时候加以应用。写作完成后，要将关键词下划线。
