今天和大家分享的是可以运用在读后续写中的细节描写素材，同学们赶紧学起来！
读后续写基本是以记叙文为主，而记叙文是以记人叙事为主要内容，以叙述为主要表达方式来反映丰富多彩的现实生活的一种文体。一般来说，完成一篇完整的记叙文写作，需要选取合适的角度、按照一定的顺序组织素材进行叙述，其中包括六个基本要素：时间、地点、人物，事情的起因、经过和结果，即我们通常所说的五个“W”（what, who, when, where, why）和一个“H”（how）。除此之外，鲜明的主题和生动的语言，也是一篇优秀的记叙文所不可或缺的。
描写作为记叙文的一种辅助的表达方式对加强文章的表现力发挥着重要的作用，它要求我们善于捕捉细节、刻画细节，有时还可以用上比喻、拟人、夸张等修辞手法。一篇好的作文往往因为一两处细节描写而出彩。同样地，议论、抒情的表达方式对记叙文主题的展现也发挥着重要的作用。
在写作中，对人物情感的描写常常能使人物的形象显得生动鲜活。人的情感可以分很多种，如喜悦、满意、失望、悲伤、憎恨、愤怒、惊讶、恐惧、赞赏等等。在英语中有很多不同的词和句式来表达这些不同的情感。

If the Dream Is Big Enough, the Facts Don’t Count
I used to watch her from my kitchen window, she seemed so small as she muscled her way through the crowd of boys on the playground. The school was across the street from our home and I would often watch the kids as they played during recess. A sea of children, and yet to me, she stood out from them all.
I remembered the first day I saw her playing basketball. I watched in wonder as she ran circles around the other kids. She managed to shoot jump shots just over their heads and into the net. The boys always tried to stop her but no one could.
I began to notice her at other times, basketball in hand, playing alone. She would practice dribbling and shooting over and over again, sometimes until dark. One day I asked her why she practiced so much. She looked directly in my eyes and without a moment of hesitation. She said, “I want to go to college. The only way I can go is if I get a scholarship. I like basketball. I decided that if I were good enough, I would get a scholarship. I am going to play college basketball. I want to be the best. My Daddy told me if the dream is big enough, the facts don’t count.”
Well, I had to give it to her—she was determined. I watched her through those junior high years and into high school. Every week, she led her varsity team to victory.
One day in her senior year, I saw her sitting in the grass, head cradled in her arms. I walked across the street and sat down in the cool grass beside her. Quietly I asked what was wrong. “Oh, nothing,” came a soft reply. “I am just too short.” The coach told her that at 5’5”she would probably never get to play for a top ranked team—much less offered a scholarship—so she should stop dreaming about college.
She was heartbroken and I felt my own throat tighten as I sensed her disappointment. I asked her if she had talked to her dad about it yet. She lifted her head from her hands and told me that her father said those coaches were wrong. They just did not understand the power of a dream. He told her that if she really wanted to play for a good college, if she truly wanted a scholarship, that nothing could stop her except one thing — her own attitude. He told her again, “If the dream is big enough, the facts don’t count.”
The next year, as she and her team went to the Northern California Championship game, she was seen by a college recruiter. She was indeed offered a scholarship, a full ride, to a Division I, NCAA women’s basketball team. She was going to get the college education that she had dreamed of and worked toward for all those years.
It’s true: If the dream is big enough, the facts don’t count.
我曾经常常从厨房窗口观察她，她用力挤过操场上的一群男生时显得那么瘦小。学校在我们房子的对面，经常可以看见孩子们在课间休息的时候玩耍。那里有一大群孩子，但是对于我来说，她在人群中一样突出。
我记得第一次看见她时，她正在打篮球。我惊奇地看着她绕着那些孩子跑。她越过其他孩子的头顶成功投进球。男孩们总是试图拦阻她，但是没人能做到。我开始在其他时候注意她，她总是独自一人，手里拿着篮球练习。她一次次地练习带球，投篮，有时一直持续到天黑。有一天我问她为什么这么勤奋地练习。她直视着我的眼睛，毫不犹豫地说：“我想上大学。只有获得奖学金我才能上学。我喜欢篮球。我决定了如果我足够优秀，我就可以获得奖学金。我打算进校队。我想成为最优秀的球员。爸爸告诉我心中有目标，风雨不折腰。”
是啊，我得承认——她意志很坚定。在初中，高中那些年岁里，我一直看着她。每周，她都会带领校队赢得胜利。她高三那年，我看见她坐在草地上，头埋进臂弯。
我穿过街道，坐在她旁边凉凉的草地上。我小声地问她出什么事了。“哦，没什么，”她柔和地回答。“我就是太矮了。”教练告诉她一米六五的她没法跻身高水平的球队——更不用说得奖学金——所以她不要再奢望上大学了。她很伤心，感觉到她的失望我也觉得喉头发紧。
我问她有没有把这事告诉她父亲。她从臂弯中抬起头，说她父亲说那些教练是错误的。他们不知道梦想的力量。他告诉她如果她真的想进一所好大学打球，如果她真的想得到奖学金，没有事情可以阻挡她，除了一样东西——她自己的态度。他对她说：“心中有目标,风雨不折腰。”第二年，当她和她的队伍进入北加州锦标赛时，她被一位大学招聘人员接见。她真的获得了奖学金，并且成为NCAA女子篮球队一队正式球员。她这么多年梦寐以求和不断拼搏的大学之梦终于圆了。
