【语篇解读】
本篇完形填空是一篇记叙文，讲述了一只老鼠在圣诞前夕在农户家偷食的故事。文章通过这个故事阐明一个道理：当想着自己会有奇迹惊喜发生的时候，可能别人会给以另外一个意想不到的奇迹。不要太过于乐观，要随时准备着不同的状况出现。
[31].考查副词。从后文hewaswatchingforamiracle(奇迹).他期待一个奇迹可以推断出此处应该是满怀希望地hopefully。
[32].考查形容词。从后文提到Itneededafamily.说明这个房子应该是没有人的，故选empty。
[33].考查名词。后文提到他从昨天开始一直没有吃东西，这里只能是肚子发出声音，故选stomach。
[34].考查名词。下文hefilledhisbagwithwheat有复现词bag,因此这只老鼠当时拿的就是bag.
[35].考查连词。A.although尽管；B.until直到；C.whereas然而；D.unless除非。根据上下文这只老鼠的日子一直过的很好，有了猫日子就不好过了，应选until直到。
[36].考查动词。A.leap跳跃B.sniff嗅，闻C.tremble战栗发抖D.withdraw撤走，取走
根据上文，这只老鼠一想到这只猫应是害怕，所以选C
[37].考查动词。Helookedaroundcautiously。他谨慎的环顾四周，说明他应是偷偷溜入的。stealinto偷偷进入。
[38].考查形容词。根据上文这里应用一个贬义词。因而选nervous他正在紧张的往他的包里装麦子。
[39].考查动词。这只老鼠应是felt感觉到猫在他耳边呼气。
[40].考查副词。这只老鼠感受到猫在他旁边，那他的心脏一定是剧烈的跳动。Wildly疯狂地，野生地
[41].考查动词。通过lukily可以得知这只老鼠应是escape逃脱了猫的捕抓。
[42].考查了形容词。原来住的FarmerMike有了猫所以他的日子不再好过，但是有了goodnews,因而选择newfamily新搬来了一家。
[43].考查动词。因为此时是圣诞前夕，当然要选择celebrate共同庆祝圣诞节。
[44].考查动词短语。A.comeacross偶然遇见B.comefrom来自C.comeoff脱落D.comeup发生，上来，出现。因而只能comeup汽车出现在路上。
[45].考查形容词。Zigfried’sChristmasmiracledidarrive!所以这里应该表达一个好的概念。A.comealive活跃起来。这个房子活跃起来。
[46].考查动词。根据上文，此处也应该表达一个好的概念，所以应该是enjoy享受每一小时。
[47].考查连词，根据上下文，上文都是说他正在享受圣诞前夕的这个时刻，但是最后听到孩子们的讨论会送猫作为圣诞礼物，这只老鼠就高兴不起来的。正好是一个转折关系，因而填however。
[48].考查形容词。Christmaswhenhewasdrinkinghotchocolate正在喝热巧克力说明这里应用一个褒义形容词。故选satisfiedsmile满意的笑容。
[49].考查名词。孩子们应该是在讨论discussion会收到什么圣诞礼物。
[50].考查名词。复现现象。前面第18题提到露出满意笑容，这里应填smile.

【解析】
由上面的表格可以看出，最近四年以来湖北的高考英语短文写作都是给出了部分的英语和汉语提示，要求要结合一个事例来写一篇除诗歌以外，文体不限，词数为120左右的文章。
就作文形式来看，今年的高考的作文形式还是沿用了最近几年高考的模式，考生对这种形式的作文还是比较熟悉的。在期中，期末考试和高三的二月，四月以及五月的调考中，都对这种作文题型进行了训练，在平常的练习中，也对这种题型的写作进行了归纳总结。
就2013年短文写作的具体题目来看，给出了英文提示Weallknowthat“sticksandstonesmaybreakourbones”,butweshouldalsobeawarethatwordscanhurtpeople,too.没有像2010年和2011年那样给出中文，这也稍稍增加了审题的难度，特别是对于英语基础不是很好的同学。但就我们平常所讲的分析句子结构的技巧来说，要着重注意句子的but后强调的部分“wordscanhurtpeople”，刚好这些词汇是比较简单的初中学过的单词，所以对于英语基础不太好的同学，即使提示语前半句看的不太懂，只要明白“wordscanhurtpeople”的含义，就把握了写作要求的题意。
就短文写作要求的内容来说，考生必须写一个语言能够伤害人的事例。对于高中生来说所接触的最多的是和家人，同学，朋友，老师等，所以选择自己身边的事例比较好，这样可以做到有话可说。
就短文写作的表达形式来说，除了基本的扣题，有相应的事例和篇幅符合要求，卷面整洁以外，要合理的用一些衔接词、高级词组、句型、含语法点的高级句子（强调句，倒装句，从句，非谓语等），来增加文采。在写作过程中，写事例要用过去时态，遇到自己不太会写的可以变换说法，保证意思差不多就可以了。
