Answer 1

【答案】Dear Lisa,

I'm glad to hear from you. I am very happy that you have great interest in learning Chinese. Let me tell you the story about the idiom Cheng Men Li Xue.

It is a story during the Northern Song Dynasty. There was a student called Yangshi. He had a confused problem. He wanted to ask famous teacher Cheng Yi. When he arrived his house, the teacher was having a nap. So the page boy asked Yangshi to visit the teacher another time. But Yangshi refused. Suddenly it started snowing. The page boy asked him to come in and wait in the house since it was very cold. However, Yangshi stood in front of the gate. Even later it snowed heavily. After the teacher finished all the things, Yangshi still stood in the snow. Then the teacher asked him, “Why not come another day? How silly you are!”. Yangshi said, “I have learned something from you, I can't disturb you, and I must show my respect for you”. Finally, Cheng Yi was moved by Yangshi's action and taught him a lot.

It shows us that we should show our respect to our teachers. Hope it will help you to understand.

Yours,

Li Hua

【解析】

这是一篇看图作文，要求我们根据图示给自己的英国笔友Lisa写信，给她解释“程门立雪”这个成语的含义。写作前，应仔细观察图片，弄清楚图片中发生的事情，然后用英语表达出来。审题可知，这篇文章的主要内容应包括：首先引入Lisa学习中遇到的问题，点明写这封信的目的；然后重点是解释该成语的含义，根据图片提示进行表达；最后谈一谈自己对这个成语的理解和感悟。短文中开头和结尾部分应使用一般现在时态；主体部分用一般过去时，注意谓语动词的正确形式，尤其是不规则动词过去式的变化。写作时应注意：首先应将题目中要求的所有内容都包括在内，包括题目中给出的提示词，在写作时应用上。注意分清结构和层次，叙述应清晰、有条理。其次应注意英语的表达问题，在词序以及表达上英语与汉语有很多不同的地方，不能根据汉语思维逐词翻译，应从整句话的结构出发，选择适当的句型、词汇和短语进行表达。句式结构可以简单句为基础，穿插并列句以及复合句，为提升作文档次，可使用被动语态、非谓语动词等复杂结构。同时语句之间使用恰当的连接成分，使上下文意连贯，表达自然、流畅。
