题目内容

9.We're always looking for well-written reviews of books,music,movies,television shows,websites,video games and other products.When writing a review,concentrate on exactly what you liked or didn't like.Give examples of strengths and weaknesses,be descriptive and provide background information on an author,director,actor or musician,if possible.Find professional reviews in magazines or newspapers and see how reviewers deal with their topic,but be sure to express your own voice in your review.
Grammar Hint for Reviews:When describing a book,movie,album or anything else,use the present tense.
Book Reviews
Discuss an author's technique,strengths and weaknesses instead of focusing on the plot.Does the story flow?Is there a strong sense of character and place?Did you stay up until dawn to finish it?Is it good reading for teenagers?What influence did it have on you and why?If you've read other books by the same author,discuss how this book compares.
Movie Reviews
Think of the major Oscar categories and consider the performances,music,lighting and setting,etc.Do these work together?Did some hold up while others didn't?If the movie is based on a book,discuss whether one is better than the other and why.If the movie is a remake,compare the film to its original.
Remember that a well-written movie review should discuss strengths and weaknesses.Some readers may not have seen a movie yet,so don't give away an exciting scene or the ending!
College Reviews
Begin by providing an overview of the college,including location,size and a description of the campus and/or dorm life.Think about all aspects of your college visit.What academic,athletic and after-class programs are available?What are the students like?What makes the college different from others?Every school has strengths and weaknesses.Be objective.Consider what the school has to offer and who might enjoy or benefit the most from attending there.
