【權(quán)威點(diǎn)評(píng)】

這是一篇說明文。文章指出休閑活動(dòng)對(duì)身體健康的好處，也相信人們會(huì)越來越關(guān)注休閑活動(dòng)，以保持身體的健康。

全文中心突出，層次分明，語言精練，條理清晰。作者對(duì)話題的積極意義表述恰當(dāng)，所介紹的休閑方法有可操作性。總之，這是一篇優(yōu)秀的學(xué)生作文。

【思路解析】

首先，用列舉法說明什么是休閑活動(dòng)，并指出了休閑活動(dòng)的重要性；然后，從反面介紹許多人一味地學(xué)習(xí)和工作，忽略了休閑活動(dòng)，從而對(duì)身心健康帶來不良的影響，并就此提出了一些可促使改善不良影響的休閑活動(dòng)項(xiàng)目；最后，呼吁人們維持工作與休閑的平衡，保持身心健康。

★典題例解

請(qǐng)你根據(jù)下列內(nèi)容提示，寫一篇100詞左右的英語短文。

內(nèi)容包括：

1.你參與過或看過的一次歌唱比賽，以及你當(dāng)時(shí)的感受。

2.同學(xué)們對(duì)參加歌唱比賽利弊的看法。

3.如有機(jī)會(huì)參加歌唱比賽，你會(huì)參加嗎？

【寫作提示】

1.審題立意

本文是一篇要求寫一次參與過或看過的歌唱比賽的經(jīng)歷和感受的記敘文。行文時(shí)，要通過比賽經(jīng)歷、參賽的感悟（或看賽的經(jīng)歷和感悟）及同學(xué)們對(duì)這種娛樂活動(dòng)的評(píng)價(jià)來表明自己的看法和觀點(diǎn)。

2.布局謀篇

文章開頭應(yīng)要介紹曾經(jīng)參與或目睹的歌唱比賽，可以用“It is my honor to...”等句型來表明自己有幸參與過或目睹過該活動(dòng)。接下來，交代參賽選手的狀況或與自己的（經(jīng)歷）作對(duì)比。比賽過程要敘述清楚，可夾敘夾議，以突出心理感受，然后指出比賽的結(jié)果和同學(xué)們的看法。最后，進(jìn)一步表明自己對(duì)歌唱這種娛樂活動(dòng)的看法和態(tài)度。

3.詞句表達(dá)

◆詞語

③nervous緊張的

④try one's best to do竭力做某事

⑤calm down（使）平靜

④I won the first/second...prize in the contest.我獲得了比賽的第一名/第二名/……。

⑤It is good for...to improve...skill.這有利于……提高……技能。

4.語法建議

本文是寫自己曾經(jīng)參與或所見的一次歌唱比賽的經(jīng)歷，因此時(shí)態(tài)應(yīng)以一般過去時(shí)為主。由于行文是作者自述，所以使用第一人稱比較合適。

【參考范文】

It was a great honor that I had a chance to take part in a singing contest in our schoollast week.

There were ten competitors in our contest and I was the last one to sing.I was very nervous when I was waiting for my turn to sing because the other competitors all sang well.However，I tried my best to calm down myself.Finally，I won the second prize in the singing contest.Some of my classmates thought that the singing contest could improveourself-confidencewhileothers thought that it wasted our study time.

If I have an opportunity to join in a television singing contest，I will take it because it is good for me to improve my singing skill.
