It was the worst day ever. In fact, that’s what we named it, all caps:WORST DAY EVER. The exact date was March 19, 2007, and I’ll never forget it.
这是有史以来最糟糕的一天。事实上，这就是我们对它的命名，大写：史上最糟糕的一天。确切的日期是2007年3月19日，我永远不会忘记。
The day began as usual. My husband, Alan, a manager working for a national restaurant chain, entered his office in our home to participate in conference calls. From my spot in the kitchen, I could overhear his conversation with his boss. It turned out that my fears were confirmed. Alan’s position had been dismissed. I hugged my husband as my heart sank. What were we going to do Would we lose our house if we couldn’t afford to pay our mortgage(按揭贷款) “We’ll be fine, ”he said . “I know, ”I responded . But, frankly, neither of us was very convincing.
一天照常开始。我的丈夫Alan是一家全国连锁餐厅的经理，他走进我们家的办公室参加电话会议。在我厨房的位置上，我可以无意中听到他和老板的谈话。事实证明，我的恐惧得到了证实。阿兰的职位已被撤销。我拥抱了我的丈夫，心里一沉。我们打算怎么办？如果我们付不起抵押贷款，我们会失去房子吗(按揭贷款) “我们会好起来的，”他说。“我知道，”我回答。但是，坦率地说，我们俩都不太令人信服。
I wanted to crawl back in bed and pull the covers over my head, but I had to go to work. So, I quickly showered, dressed, and made my way to work. It was a few hours into my shift when I received a call from the doctor’s office. “You have cancer, ”he stated. “What ”It sounded like something completely ridiculous, since I was a positive and healthy runner. That day I forgot how I arrived home.
我想爬回床上，把被子盖在头上，但我必须去上班。所以，我很快洗了个澡，穿好衣服，然后去上班。刚上完班几个小时，我就接到了医生办公室的电话。“你得了癌症，”他说。“什么？”这听起来很荒谬，因为我是一个积极健康的跑步者。那天我忘了我是怎么到家的。
I thought about how wonderful things had been up until this day. Alan and I had enjoyed a happy life in our lovely suburban home. We loved our jobs, traveling and fancy dinners. It was all too good to last, I thought. Now it’s time to pay back for all those amazing years. I imagined hospital beds, my bald head and worse. I prepared myself for a future of coping(应对), or no future at all .
直到今天，我还在想事情是多么美妙。阿兰和我在郊区的家里过着幸福的生活。我们热爱我们的工作、旅行和丰盛的晚餐。我想，这一切太好了，无法持续。现在是时候为那些令人惊叹的岁月付出回报了。我想象着医院的病床，我的光头，甚至更糟。我为未来的应对做好了准备(应对), 或者根本没有未来。
I cried and Alan held me in his arms. “Someday in the future, we’re going to write about today, ”he whispered in my ear, “and we’ll call it Worst Day Ever. ”
我哭了，阿兰把我抱在怀里。“将来的某一天，我们要写今天，”他在我耳边轻声说道，“我们会称之为有史以来最糟糕的一天。”

文本分析：
文章大意---我和丈夫曾经幸福地生活着，但是有一天被我认为是最糟糕地一天。这一天丈夫丢了工作，医生给我打来电话，确认我得了癌症。我放声哭泣，丈夫安慰我，说未来我们将这一天称之为最糟糕地一天。
读后续写情节发展：
-接下里，丈夫努力投简历找工作，进行很多次面试。我则积极治疗癌症。尽管每天面对很多挑战。我们依然乐观向上。
第二段--功夫不负有心人。几个月后，我们的努力终于得到了回报。艾伦在找到了一个新职位，薪水福利很丰厚。我的肿瘤医生完成了她的检查，结果非常令人鼓舞。最糟糕的一天教会了我们如何在更深、更深刻的层面上珍惜每一个人。
参考范文：
In the following days, we both got right to work. Alan began calling everyone he could think of with possible connections in the restaurant industry. He tirelessly applied and interviewed for dozens of positions. We were able to find a brilliant oncologist who immediately began to perform intensive scans and other tests to determine the stage and severity of my cancer. Time dragged on. Our anxiety was high, but we kept our heads up and always looked forward.
After several months, our hard work eventually paid off. Within several months, Alan was offered a new position at a thriving restaurant chain, with excellent pay and terrific benefits. My oncologist completed her tests, and the results were more than encouraging. Worst Day Ever itself stripped away all the trivial stuff and shone a bright spotlight on all the important things, like faith, family, perseverance, love, and health. Alan and I were blessed with an abundance of these things. We’ll never, ever take them for granted again. Worst Day Ever taught us how to cherish each one, on a much deeper, more profound level.
