作文指導
記敘文(例：記人)
【體裁導航】
在高考寫作中，要求直接對人物描述的文章不是很多，但寫人的記敘文卻是同學們必須掌握的。《普通高中英語課程標準(實驗)》對記敘文的寫作作了明確要求，所以，記敘文的寫作，應引起同學們的重視。
記敘文的寫作，一般應考慮六個要素：時間、地點、人物、事件的起因、經(jīng)過和結果。遇到以圖表的形式提供的材料時，注意要點應齊全。
寫記敘文時，由于多是敘述過去發(fā)生的動作，所以，敘述中常用過去時態(tài)，當然有時也會出現(xiàn)一般現(xiàn)在時或其他時態(tài)，尤其是在直接引語里。
寫人、記事、描述地點或刻畫場景，最常用的文體可能就是記敘文了。因而，平時遇到一些好句子，就應當多記。例如：
Joan is a pretty gentle lady in her early twenties.
My sister is a boyish girl.She has short and straight hair like a boy’s.
He is a handsome young man with bright eyes and broad shoulders.
以上例句都是用于描述人的好句子，應首先學會靈活套用。長此以往，潛移默化，同學們的表達自會在不知不覺中達到“即便信手拈來，卻也恰到好處”的境界。
寫人的記敘文當然離不開記事，但兩者的側重點有所不同。記人者，以人為主導，所寫的事都是為襯托人物服務的，所以，記述時，外貌的描寫、性格的刻畫等等，都要服務于人物，不可喧賓奪主、本末倒置。
【寫作示例】
請根據(jù)下面所提供的資料，寫一篇介紹潘瑋柏(Will Pan)的英語短文。
潘瑋柏，當今著名歌手，英俊瀟灑，身高1.74米，1980年8月6日在上海出生。會漢語和英語兩種語言。他喜歡籃球，最喜歡的音樂是Hip Hop、R&B和華語流行音樂(Chinese Pop Music)。他為人隨和、活潑好動、笑容燦爛。他的愿望就是能夠成為“super idol”(超級偶像)。
注意：1.可根據(jù)內(nèi)容要點適當增加細節(jié)以使行文連貫；
2．詞數(shù)：120左右。
【寫作要領】
一、審題要點
1．體裁：記敘文；
2．時態(tài)：一般現(xiàn)在時；
3．人稱：第三人稱。
二、內(nèi)容要點
1．潘瑋柏的概況描述；
2．他的業(yè)余愛好及性情；
3．他的愿望。
【金點模板】
一、開頭
參考句式：
1．Will Pan, who was born on...，is a．..
2．Will Pan, one of the...，was born...

as well as；not only...but also... ；though；although... ；however；but...
三、結尾
參考句式：
1．Wish he will succeed!
2．Wish his dream come true!
3．Good luck to him!
4．Wish him a fantastic future!

One possible version：
Thomas Edison
Born in America, Thomas Edison was a great scientist and inventor.He was once thought to be a boy who was not worth educating.In fact, he was a man full of imagination.
I admire Edison a lot because of his great contribution to the world.He had more than 1,000 inventions.
In his life time, he was always eager to know how things worked, which helped him to earn the nickname “the Wizard of Melo Park”．He was also so diligent that he worked day and night. And this explained why he had so many great inventions.
What impresses me most is his famous saying, “Genius is one percent inspiration and ninetynine percent perspiration.” Probably I cannot be an Edison myself, but I can be a hardworking learner.From him, I realize the secret to success is not when or where you were born, but what you are doing and how you do it in your life.
