大象juǎn其实对于这类题型我们需要注意的问题是：1、写什么 2、怎么写 这两个问题。今天我们将以一道题目为例，探讨读后续写的方法，帮助考生快速理清思路，写出高分短文。读后续写快速理清思路的三步法：5R解读故事；4句定框架和3大原则（即：五四三法）
题目：
读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两端，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Mike licked the last of the mint chocolate chipice cream. It was almost time to leave. He jumped into the car with his parents and headed off to the Olympic-sized pool for the big swim meet.
When hisrace came up, Mike was confident. He was strong and swift. Mike climbed out the pool, smiling. He had just won first place, making him the fastest boy in his age group.
“Congratulations, son,” his father said. His mom gave him a hug, even though he was soaking wet.
A week later, it was time for another swim meet. Like before, Mike decided to enjoy his favorite ice cream flavor. Mike remembered that the last time he had won a race, he also ate mint chocolate chip ice cream first. Maybe he’d win again.
He’s takenfirst place again in his race. Mike was feeling pretty good. As it turned out, Mike decided to have some mint chocolate chip Ice cream before every one of the next few swim meets. He began to think of it as his lucky charm. After several months of placing in the top positions of every race he swam, Mike was feeling unbeatable. And he wouldn’t admit it, but all that ice cream was adding a few pounds to his athletic swimmer’s build.
It didn’t take long after that for Mike to start coming in second place-and then third-and then last place in his races. The lucky mint chocolate chip ice cream had lost itsmagic.
On the day of his next swim meet, his mother sat down at the table with him. “Mike, we all love ice cream, but it’s nothealthy for your body to eat so much of it. Maybe it’s time to quit the sweet treats for a while, especially before you go swimming.
Mike unwillingly agreed. He went to the swim meet, and didn’tperform well. His father offered to go running with him a few days a week to help him feel better and strengthen his muscles. The extra weight soon disappeared, and Mike found himself breathing easier at swim practices.
Itwas the last meet of the season, and Mike wasn’t sure what to expect. He felt healthy again, but he didn’t know if he still had any speed in the pool.

速写方法
第一步：Analyze the story：5Rs
1. Read for characters:Mike, his parents, teammates, Ice cream
2. Read for conflict / problems：Ice cream and Mike’s performance: Whether is it a Lucky charm
3. Read for plot:
4. Read for emotional changes:
① When his race came up, Mike was confident.
② Mike was feeling pretty good.
③ After several months of placing in the top positions of every race he swam, Mike was feeling unbeatable.
④ Mike unwillingly agreed.
5. Read for theme
What contributes to Mike’s success in swimming?
第二步：四句定框架
写读后续写不同于写其它作文，有可能需要先倒着写的
Step 1: 先把最后一句写好，即：主题句
Mike realized that one’s lucky charm was nothing but his diligence.
Step 2: 再把衔接句写好，即第一段的最后一句：
He dashed to the finish line.
Step 3: 紧接着每段的提示语句写角色的情感：
As he dove into the water, he kicked his legs and stretched his arms as far as he could.
It struck endless energy and motivation into his body.
Mike’s jaw dropped as he realized he had beaten his own best time, and everyone else’s too.
The flowers in his heart were already in bloom.
第三步：补充完整每段的中间部分
记住三大原则：
1.Action—Response原则：角色A的所言、所行、所感、所想会引起其它角色的一系列反应的。每段对话1-2句，不一定两个人都要说话，无声的动作也是一种response。
2.Conflict—Solution原则：一般而言第二段会有问题的solution，但本文和高考的读后续写文章出题不一样，因为solution在所给文章中就已经有了。同时思考：能否在第一段出现一个问题，然后把它解决了或者没有解决。一方面是增加看点，另一方面也是给第二段铺垫。
3.Negative—Positive原则：写作中一定要体现情感的变化，无论前面是这样的变化，最终都是积极的。
最终成文：
