David and Roy decided to go for a bicycle ride with three other students: Robert, Helen and Betty. But Robert’s father couldn’t afford to buy a bike for him. So they were going to borrow one for him.

The students had planned to meet at 8 o’clock. But Robert, Helen and Betty were half an hour late, for they had to come a long way since they found the bridge over the stream had been washed away.

When they told the bad news to David and Roy, David said nothing and kept silent for a moment. After a while, an idea came into his mind. “Do you think we could rebuild it?”

All of them agreed and started to consider this seriously. They decided to rebuild the bridge before they went for the bicycle ride. Betty said she could ask her brother to make a plan for them.

The biggest problem was to get enough wood. The next day they visited nearly every house in the village. Mr. Robinson agreed to supply the wood so long as they did the work. Several people promised to give money if they could build a new bridge because it was a short cut for them.

The students worked for nearly a week under Mr. Robinson’s guidance. At the end of a

week of hard work, the bridge was completed. They all agreed to ask Mr. Robinson to officially open the bridge. “He has helped us most,” David said.

“And tomorrow morning we can go around to all the houses,” added Roy, “and tell the people that the bridge will be officially opened at six o’clock. Then we can remind them about their promises about money,” Roy added.

“But we don’t really want that, do we?” said Robert.

“Yes,” said Helen. “We need it and I think we should collect it.” She glanced quickly at the others, who nodded.

The next day, the students visited all the houses again. They were surprised when they saw how pleased the people were with them. By two o’clock they had collected over a hundred dollars. By five o’clock, unknown to Robert, they had spent it.

【答案】 At six the students gathered at the bridge. Mr Robinson appeared with nearly forty of the people of their district. In a short speech he praised the students for their efforts. “And now I declare the bridge open”,he said, “and I have a small surprise for you”. He turned to his son and received a small metal sign from him. Climbing down the bank, he nailed it on the side of the bridge. “Students Bridge” it said. The neighbors clapped,and the students felt even more pleased with their work.

David turned to Robert and said,we have a surprise for you! Look! Look!Helen pushed a new bike through the crowd and gave it to the astonished Robert. “Now you see why we wanted the money,”she said.You can ride the new bike to take a trip with them, Robert was so moved to tears that he thanked his friends again and again. The friends went for the bicycle trip happily.

【解析】

这是一篇记叙文，文章主要讲述了五个学生决定一起去骑自行车，但他们发现必须经过的一座桥被冲走了。于是同学们决定重建这座桥。有的人承诺他们若能建好这座桥，就给他们钱，经过一个多星期的努力，桥建好了，他们成功募集了100多美元。

续写部分分为两段，第一段开头是：六点钟学生们聚集在桥上……，所以应该写鲁滨逊先生出现在桥上，并对学生们的工作表示赞扬，学生们由此对自己的努力也感到满意。第二段开头是：大卫转身对罗伯特说:“我们要给你一个惊喜!”。故接下来应该与上文相呼应，同学们用募集来的钱给罗伯特买了一辆自行车，罗伯特非常感动。
