【习作点评】
写作要求:
请就下面故事写一篇120字左右的短文。
从前,遥远山庄有一少年,酷爱读书。然而因家境贫寒,无钱买书。他听说远方有一户富人家收藏着各种书籍,乐交诚实少年。于是,少年长途跋涉,借书求知。富人说:“只要爱护书籍,及时交还,可随意借书”。
历时多年,少年总是及时读完所借书籍,从不延迟交还。就这样,该少年博览群书,长大后成了大科学家。
习作原文:
There was once an honest boy in a far away① mountain village. He was very fond of reading.But his family was too poor to buy him any books. Far away from the village there lived a rich man who had a library in which he kept all kinds of books. This man liked honest teenagers. When the boy learned it②, he walked a long way to visit him and asked the rich man to borrow③ him some books. “You can borrow any books as you like if only you keep them clean and return them on time④,” the man said.
For many years the boy always finished to read⑤ the books in a given time and was never late in returning them back⑥. In this way the boy read a lot of books and when he grew up, he became a great scientist.
点评:
本文写出了全部要点,层次分明,语言通顺,复合句用得不错。但有几处语法错误:①把 far away 改为faraway。faraway是形容词,意为“遥远的”,只能作前置定语,不能作状语。far away是固定词组,意为“很远”,只能作表语、状语和后置定语,如第4句。②it 改为 this。 it 代替前面提到的名词,而且与前面的名词指同一物。this 代替上文的内容。③把 borrow 改为 lend 。因为borrow 是“借入”,而 lend 是“借出”。④把 on time 改为 in time 。on time 是“准时”,指正好在规定的时间内,既不迟,也不早。in time 是“及时”,指按照预定的时间还有富余,可做些别的事情。⑤to read 改为 reading。 finish后只能用v-ing形式作宾语,不可用不定式作宾语。 finish reading意为“读完”。⑥把 back 去掉。因 return 意为“归还(give sth back)”。
【习作练兵】
1. 请根据中文提示,用英语写出下列故事。
有位妇女心脏病犯了,去看医生。这位大夫是新来的,并不认识她。于是先问了她一些问题。其中一个问题是:“你多大岁数?” 她答道:“大夫,我记不起来了,我得好好想想。”她想了一会儿,然后说:“我现在想起来了,结婚时,我是18岁,我丈夫30岁。现在我丈夫60岁,这正好是30岁的两倍。所以我现在是18岁的两倍,那就是36岁。对吗?”
