（五）读后续写练习
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。
My dad, George, only had an eighth grade education. A quiet man, he didn't understand my world of school
activities. From age 14, he worked. And his dad, Albert, took the money my dad earned and used it to pay family
expenses.
I didn't really understand his world either: He was a livestock trucker, and I thought that I would surpass (超
过) anything he had accomplished by the time I walked across the stage at high school graduation.
Summers in the mid-70s were spent at home shooting baskets, hitting a baseball, or throwing a football,
preparing for my future as a quarterback on a football team. In poor weather, I read about sports or practiced my
trombone (长号).The summer before my eighth grade I was one of a group of boys that a neighboring farmer hired to work in
his field. He explained our basic task, the tractor fired up and we were off, riding down the field looking for weeds
to spray with chemicals. After a short way, the farmer stopped and pointed at a weed which we missed. Then we
began again. This happened over and over, but we soon learned to identify different grasses like cockleburs,
lamb's-quarters, foxtails, and the king of weeds, the pretty purple thistle. It was tiring work, but I looked forward
to the pay, even though I wasn't sure how much it would amount to.
At home, my dad said, "A job's a big step to growing up. I'm glad you will be contributing to the household."
My dad's words made me realize that my earnings might not be mine to do with as I wished.
My labors lasted about two weeks, and the farmer said there might be more work, but I wasn't interested. I
decided it was not fair that I had to contribute my money.
The pay arrived at last.

【参考答案】
The pay arrived at last. Although the job was very tiring, I was very happy in my heart for I got something
from my work. The toil of labor was forgotten for the time being. I thought I should have my own money and
planned how to spend it. “How much money have you earned?” Dad asked. I was surprised, reluctant to say my
income. The next morning, my dad’s livestock truck started running. I saw my father’s hard-working figure and
thought of his words “A job’s a big step to growing up”.
I understood immediately what my parents were worried about. They were worried that I was too selfish to
give. I realized that my labor was very hard, but my growth and our whole family had been depending on the hard
work of my parents! Dad never complained about unfairness! He even seemed to think that was fair. I thought,
“I’ve only worked for two weeks, but how many years my father has worked!” In the evening, Dad came back. I
proudly took out my own money and handed it to Dad.
