【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了迪伦和母亲Khadine及双胞胎弟弟一起搬到美国，希望有新的开始，但是生活却过得不如意，双胞胎弟弟有严重的心脏病，Khadine需要打工赚钱，迪伦负责照顾弟弟，迪伦相信教育是他们摆脱困境的唯一出路，所以他向母亲承诺，他将是家里第一个上大学的人，他刻苦学习，但在迪伦大学入学考试的几周前，他家因为付不起房租而不得不住在收容所，但那不是一个学习的好场所。
【详解】1.段落续写：
①由第一段首句内容“但迪伦继续追寻他的梦想。”可知，第一段可描写迪伦如何刻苦学习。
②由第二段首句内容“申请几周后，他收到了一个信封，里面有好消息。”可知，第二段可描写迪伦考上了大学以及母亲知道后的反应。
2.续写线索：白天工作迪伦——迪伦晚上专心学习——完成入学考试——收到录取通知书——递给母亲通知书——感悟
3.词汇激活
行为类
①专心学习：fcus n ne’s study/cncentrate n ne’s study
②完成：finish/cmplete
③递给某人某物：hand sth. t sb./pass sth. t sb
情绪类
①激动：excitement/thrill
②高兴：jy/delight
【点睛】[高分句型1] The nise didn’t bther him as he was fcused n his study and the prmise that he had made t his mther. (由that引导的限制性定语从句)
[高分句型2] In great excitement, he rushed back t the shelter and handed the letter ver t his mther, wh cried ut f jy. (由关系代词wh引导非限制性定语从句)
