Tom Perry concentrated hard. The rocket competition would begin shortly. He
had never lost a contest, but that didn’t calm him. Being on top counted, and he
pushed himself to remain there.
The other kids, however, rarely came over to him. No way was he going to let
them ignore that he’d win again. Still, he often wondered: why didn’t winning make
people like him better?
He opened his toolbox and began assembling(组装)his launch pad. Then he
checked his rocket again. It looked perfect — especially compared to the others.
But one caught his eye. A thin boy named Ed lifted it carefully. Its paint shone in
the sunlight, and its parts fit perfectly. His critical eye detected that this rocket could
beat his. “Nice rocket,” said the boy nervously. “Thanks,” Tom replied flatly, and
then regretted it. “Where do you usually launch it? I’ve never seen you here.” “In the
field behind my house.”
“You don’t care for these contests?”
“I never really thought about them. I keep pretty much to myself.”
The announcer explained the competition. Tom barely listened, his gaze
constantly drifting to Ed’s rocket. Suddenly his heart did a leap — as Ed lifted the
rocket to place it on the launch pad, his fin(翼)had caught against something,
pulling it away from the fuselage(机身)— not enough to break it off, just enough
to loosen it.
But Ed hadn’t noticed. He glanced back at Tom and gave a thumbs-up. Tom felt a
surge of guilt but decided he wasn’t going to say anything. Anyway, it was up to Ed
to keep checking his rocket.
Then the competition began. Most rockets gained respectable heights, while a few
shot wildly. Tom watched, but the knowledge he had about what was wrong with their
rockets soured within him. It was like something he had stolen.
“Ed Malovich will be our next contestant,” the announcer said, interrupting
Tom’s daydream. Immediately Ed lifted his rocket and headed to the launch area.

Paragraph 1: Without thinking, words flowed from Tom’s mouth, surprising even
himself.
Paragraph 2: Minutes later, Ed’s rocket blasted(轰鸣)skyward, shooting up as if
unstoppable.一、文章分析与续写构思
1. 文章类型与续写思路
该文章属于成长友谊与道德抉择类读后续写。故事围绕主人公Tom在火箭
比赛中的心理挣扎展开,核心冲突是“胜利与道德”的选择。续写需聚焦Tom
的内心转变,从自私竞争到道德觉醒,最终实现情感成长。
构思思路:
第一段(开头语已给出):Tom突然开口提醒Ed火箭故障,需描写其冲动背后
的心理突破(如愧疚感爆发、道德觉醒)。
第二段:Ed修复火箭后成功发射,Tom从中领悟到比胜利更重要的价值(如友
谊、真诚),完成情感升华。
布局与框架:
承接转折:Tom的提醒需自然衔接原文“他突然开口”;
情感递进:从愧疚到释然,最后反思成长;
结局设计:Ed的成功发射象征Tom的道德胜利,而非比赛胜利。
巧妙设计点:
让Tom的提醒并非完全无私(如夹杂竞争本能),但最终被善意主导;
通过环境描写(如阳光、火箭升空)烘托情感转折;
结尾用Tom的心理独白点明主题:“真正的胜利是赢得尊重”。
注意事项:
保持人称(第三人称)、时态(一般过去时)与原文一致;
沿用原文关键词(如rocket, launch pad, fin, fuselage);
衔接原文细节:Ed的火箭“翼片松动”、Tom的“愧疚感”和“批判性眼
光”。
2. 故事山模式与原文分析故事山模式:
开端:Tom自信但孤独,准备比赛;Ed与Tom有一定的相似之处;
发展:发现Ed的火箭潜在优势及故障;
高潮:Tom挣扎后选择提醒Ed;
结局:Ed成功发射,Tom获得情感成长。
伏笔与冲突点:
伏笔:Ed火箭“翼片松动但未脱落”、Tom“批判性眼光”和“愧疚感”;
冲突点:Tom在“获胜”与“道德”间的抉择;
隐含线索:Tom对人际关系的渴望(“为什么胜利不能让人更喜欢他?”);
解决方案:Tom通过道德行为实现自我救赎,赢得尊重。
