Question

假设你叫林洋，收到了你的笔友Susan的一封信，请你给她写一封回信。在信中回答她的问题，提出你的建议，并就此事谈谈你的看法。
Dear Lin Yang,
I have a problem these days. My mother doesn’t allow me to watch TV even on weekends. She says as a middle school student, my job is to study. After I finish my homework, she says, I should read books and watching TV is bad for me. But I think I need a rest and watching TV helps me learn a lot too.
Do you have the same problem? What do you think of my mother’s decision? What should I do?
Yours,
Susan

Answer 1

One possible version:
I don’t have this problem. My mother allows me to watch TV after I have finished my homework.
I think your mother shouldn’t do like this. As a student, study is our main job, but it is not all of our life. We also need a rest and enjoy ourselves. Watching TV is a good way for us to relax. Besides, some TV programs are good for our study.
I think you should talk about it with your mum. Look for some information on the Internet to help you. You can also ask your father for help.

试题分析：本文的写作首先表明自己有没有这方面的问题，如没有可以开门见山的切入主题I don’t have this problem.然后对他妈妈的做法自己表示并不赞同，并陈述理由，学习并不是生活的全部study is our main job, but it is not all of our life.看电视也是对于我们放松是非常好的方法Watching TV is a good way for us to relax.同时一些电视节目对我们的学习帮助也是非常大的some TV programs are good for our study.最后表明自己的看法和建议，如多和妈妈进行沟通you should talk about it with your mum.或者向爸爸寻求理解和帮助You can also ask your father for understanding and help.
点评：初中英语的作文，着重考察学生连词成句的能力，要在“准”字上下功夫。在写作中注意人称与谓语动词的数关系和动词时态等诸多方面。在对所出现的问题或是采取的措施描写中注意使用连词或是好的句式如have a  far-reaching effect on sth对…有深远的影响，only 置于句首的倒装及only when …,can we…等。对于中学作文的写作，尽量将所学的知识运用到作文中，写出富于变化、结构紧凑的文章，不要出现中式英文。在平时的练习中，注意多背诵范文，对于写的好的句子进行默写，考试时就能写出准确地道的作文。
