Answer 1

  Today my classmates and I went to the Old People’s Home on foot at 3 pm. As soon as we got there, we began to clean the rooms and wash clothes for the old people. Some of us talked with them. After that we gave them some per­formances. The old people all enjoyed themselves. We stayed there for about two hours before we walked home at 5 o’clock.
I felt very happy for what I had done although I was tired. I think everyone should look after and respect old people.

解析这是一则日记，有给定的要点，注意要点的全覆盖，文章层次要分明、条理清楚，要把时间固定下来，这是记叙一件事要用过去时;整个文章中的人称要一致，首尾呼应，不要随意改动，以免造成误解。这篇文章主要以第一人称为主，还要注意不同语言的表达习惯，也是写好英语作文的重要环节，因此，平时应该注意不同语言的表达习惯。例如文章里的I felt very happy for what I had done although I was tired.就是很好的宾语从句的例子。
