 答题步骤

（一）确定体裁和题材

 答题步骤

（二）确定主题句

通过审题确定体裁和主题后，就要确定主题句。写主题句最保险的方法就是把中文提纲的各句译成英语。（直译保守，意译最佳）

 答题步骤

（三）扩展主题句（1）Listing

列举法是指列举具体的事实或要点来逐步说明和论证主题思想、展开段落的方法。采用列举法的时候，需要注意两点。是要点的罗列要遵循一定的顺序

要使用合适的过渡词语。

 答题步骤

（三）扩展主题句（2）Example

举例法也是一种常用而且有效的展开段落的方法。它是通过生动、典型的实例对比较复杂或者抽象的观点进行阐述的方法。写作时提供的例子必须认真选择，保证例子能够恰如其分，能够准确地说明问题。

举例法常用的一些表达方式包括 for example, for instance, such as, a case in point, to illustrate, in illustration of, by way of examples, I can’t find a better example than…等。举例法其实是一种 “细节描述法” 原文：He dances very well.改后：His gift for dancing in a style that no one has even imagined, known as the

“moonwalk” made him an instant superstar. 答题步骤

（三）扩展主题句（3）C & C

段落的主题要指出两件以上事物的相同或相异之处时，便可采用比较或对比的方法。“比较 Comparison”用于描述所比对象的相似之处，而“对比 Contrast”则用于描述所比对象不同之处。

比较和对比一般采用两种方法来组织： 逐点比较：逐个问题进行双方面的比较

整体对照：先叙述一方的全部细节，再叙述另一方的全部细节

比较和对比法常用过渡词：like, likewise, unlike, similarly, in the same way, on the other hand, compared with, by comparison, in contrast to, on the contrary, but, yet, instead, while, whereas, however, nevertheless 等。

 Comparison & Contrast: Useful Expressions

Similarities

is similar to Both Also Too as well Differences

on the other hand however

On the other hand, winter is much colder in A.However, winter is much colder in A.A has a mild winter, but / while B has a cold one.In contrast to A, B has a cold winter.A differs from B by having a cold winter.Spring weather in A is similar

to spring weather in B Both A and B have rain in the spring.A also has a rainy spring season.A has a rainy spring season, too.As well, A has rainy spring season.but / while

in contrast to differs from

 答题步骤

（三）扩展主题句（4）C & E

因果关系法（Cause and Effect）是指根据事态发展的因果关系来展开段落的一种写作方法，这种方法常用在说明文和议论文中。

写作的时候，可以从原因入手推导出结果，也可以从结果入手推导出原因。因果关系又是比较复杂，一种事物或现象的起因往往是多方面的，而某种原因也可能会引起多种后果，还有可能多种原因导致了多种后果。一果多因：先写出结果然后分析原因 一因多果：先分析原因然后说明后果  答题步骤

（三）扩展主题句（5）Classification

划分和分类法（Classification）就是把要阐述的内容按其属性的不同分门别类、分层次地表达清楚。使用这种方法可使文章层次分明，表达清楚，逻辑性强。

划分指把一个整体分成若干部分，逐个阐述。比如，苹果包括果皮、果肉、果核等组成部分。

分类是指按一定的原则和特点把若干个体纳为一类，使具有相同特征的事物归入同一类别。例如，绘画可以分为水彩画、油画、中国画、版画等等类别。进行划分和分类时，特别需要注意的是要有明确而统一的标准。Classification = Example + C&C

分类法实际是举例法和对比法两者结合在一起的一种方法。为了描写上的方便，我们常常对主题句中提出的某些观点、事物举例加以说明。当所举的例子比较多时，我们常常将它们进行分类，并进行比较。

When I arrived at the park, I found, to my surprise, that there were so many people there.Besides old people, who are the usual early risers to do Taijiquan boxing, a lot of youngsters were also there, running, jumping or talking.In the east of the park, I even saw an old lady showing some school children and workers how to do sword-play.这段文章把作者早上散步时所看到的人分为三类：老人、青年人和一位老太太。这样描写既突出了各类人的特点，又写出了他们的共性——清晨锻炼身体。这是典型的分类法。 Classification: Useful Expressions is a kind of Coal is a kind of non-renewable resource.can be divided into Energy resources can be divided into two types.is a type of falls under belongs to is a part of fits into

Coal is a type of non-renewable resource.Coal falls under the category of non-renewable resources.Coal belongs to the category of non-renewable resources.Coal is a part of the category of non-renewable resources.Coal fits into the category of non-renewable resources.Coal is grouped with non-renewable resources.is grouped with is related to Coal is related to other non-renewable resources.Coal is associated with other non-renewable resources.is associated with

 答题步骤

（三）扩展主题句（6）Definition

定义法是通过简单易懂而且准确的语言阐明某事物的性质和特征来发展段落，使读者对某事物比较抽象的或是难以把握的一些特征有一个较清晰的认识。定义法常用于说明、描写和论证，以提供更多的具体解释来说明某一概念或术语。通常有三种方法对一个词、一条术语或谚语、一个概念下定义：给出同义词、用一个带有定语从句的复合句、用一整段文章，而以第三种方法最为常用。 答题步骤

（三）扩展主题句（7）T（P）&S  时间法（Time）

在记叙文叙述一个故事或者一系列事件时，通常按事件发生的先后顺序排列句子。

在说明文中叙述一件事应该遵循的程序或步骤时（Process)，也常用时间顺序法。

 空间法（Space）

在描写文中描述一个地方、事情或人物外貌时，常按空间顺序（自左至右，由近到远，由上至下，由下到上，由里到外，由外到里，由中间到两边等顺序）来展开段落。

引出要剖析的现象或者问题, 然后评论

Recently the rise in problem of/(phenomenon of)...has cause/aroused public/popular/wide/ worldwide concern.Recently the issue of the problem of/the phenomenon of...has been brought into focus.(has been brought to public attention)

Inflation/Corruption/Social inequality...is yet another of the new and bitter truth we have to learn to face now/constantly. 如何开头

（三）：引用法

先引出名人名言或者有代表性的看法, 来引出文章要展开论述的观点!

“Knowledge is power.” such is the remark made by Bacon.This

remark has been shared by more and more people.“Education is not complete with graduation.” Such is the opinion of a great American philosopher.Now more and more people share his opinion.How often we hear such statements/words like these /this “.........”

In our own days we are used to hearing such traditional complains as this “......”.

如何开头

通过对过去、现在两种不同的倾向、观点的比较 , 引出文章要讨论的观点.For years,...had been viewed as...But people are taking a fresh look now.With the growing..., people........People used to think that...(In the past,....)But people now share this new.

如何结尾

（一）结论型

对所讨论的问题提出建议性的意见, 包括建议和具体的解决问题的方法.While it cannot be solved immediately, still there are ways.The most popular is....Another method is...Still another one is.....Awareness/Recognition of the problem is the first step toward the situation.

一定要写一个主题句，放在文章的开头（保险型）或者结尾，让读者一目了然，必会平安无事！

特别提示：隐藏主体句可是要冒险的！

To begin with, you must work hard at your lessons and be fully prepared before the exam（主题句）.Without sufficient preparation, you can hardly expect to answer all the questions correctly. 写作过程中的七原则（2）长短句原则

写一个短小精辟的句子有时可以起到画龙点睛的作用。而且如果我们把短句放在段首或者段末，也可以揭示主题：

As a creature, I eat;as a man, I read.Although one action is to meet the primary need of my body and the other is to satisfy the intellectual need of mind, they are in a way quite similar.强烈建议： 长短结合、错落有致

在文章第一段（开头）用一长一短，且先长后短。

2）在文章主体部分，可先用一个短句解释主要意思，然后在阐述几

个要点的时候采用先短后长的句群形式。文章结尾一般一长一短。

 写作过程中的七原则（3）多变句式原则

1）简单句、并列句和复杂句交替使用。

 简单句只包含一个主谓结构，个个成分都是单词或短语的句子。 并列句包含两个或更多互不依从的主谓结构，分句由并列连词来连接

 复合句的某个成分，如主语、宾语、表语、同位语、定语、状语等，由

另一个句子承当

 写作过程中的七原则（3）多变句式原则

2）插入语使句子有层次感

 Mr liu, our oral English teacher, is easy-going.3）排比句使句子朗朗上口

 Whether your tastes are modern or traditional, sophisticated or simple, there is plenty in London for you. We have got to study hard, to enlarge our scope of knowledge, to realize our potentials and to pay for our life. 写作过程中的七原则（4）连接词原则

改卷老师一般通过一些关键性的“标签”（连接词）来判定你的文章是否结构清楚，条理自然。

 1)first, second, third, last = firstly, secondly, thirdly, finally(不推荐，俗) 2)most important of all, moreover, finally

(一般)

(一般) 3)in the first place, in the second place, in the third place, lastly  4)to begin with, then, furthermore, finally  5)to start with, next, in addition, finally

(强烈推荐)

(强烈推荐)

(强烈推荐) 6)first and foremost, besides, last but not least  7)on the one hand, on the other hand  8)for one thing, for another thing

(适用于两点的情况)

(适用于两点的情况) 写作过程中的七原则（5）多下少上原则

一定要多用具体的下义词，少用空洞的上义词。

 我们说很好的时候，不应说nice这样空洞的词，应用一些诸如generous, humorous, interesting, smart, gentle, warm-hearted, hospital之类的形象词。

positive, favorable, rosy（美

好的)，promising（有

希

望的)，perfect, pleasurable , excellent, outstanding, superior替换good。

 dreadful, unfavorable, poor, adverse, ill(有害的)替换 bad，但如果bad做表语，可以有be less impressive替换

 affair ,business ,matter 替换thing  beneficial, rewarding替换helpful

 写作过程中的七原则（6）短语优先原则

写作时，尤其是在考试时，如果使用短语，有两个好处：

1）用短语会使文章增加亮点，如果老师们看到你的文章太简单，看不到一个自己不认识的短语，必然会看你低一等。相反，如果发现亮点—精彩的短语，那么你的文章定会得高分了。

2）关键时刻思维短路，只有凑字数，怎么办？用短语是一个办法！

 I cannot bear it.可以用短语表达：I cannot put up with it. be indicative of ,be suggestive of ,be fearful of 替代 indicate, suggest ,fear  bear in mind that 替换remember  写作过程中的七原则（7）挑战极限原则

在学生的文章中，很少发现诸如独立主格的句子，其实独立主格很简单，它就是分词的一种特殊形式，分词要求主句的主语和分词短语转换成完整句子时的主语一致，而独立主格则不然。

 The weather(being)fine, a large number of people went to climb the Qinling Mountains. Africa is the second largest continent, its size being about three times that of China. 四级作文总结  宏观：审题

1）几段 2）字数比例 3）每一段几层 4）每一层要点  中层：句型、逻辑 1）主题句必须攻克（三段）2）学会拓展  微观：词汇、衔接

第二篇：英语中书信的种类

英语中书信的种类

1）邀请信

邀请信有正式和非正式之分，也有介于两者之间者。正式邀请信一般属于公函类，私人邀请信一般属于非正式文体。邀请朋友、熟人参加某一聚会时，再词句上不一 定多加斟酌，用词太正规倒显得关系不密切。但是如果与被邀请人不太熟悉的话，最好用正式文体。如虽认识但并不十分了解，文体可介于两个者之间。由此可见，私人邀请究竟用什么文体，关键看与被邀请人之间的亲疏的程度。邀请信要明确写出活动（是晚会、晚餐还是一般的聚会等）、活动的时间地点组织这项活动的理 由，有时还应告诉对方可能出席的人，另外一般希望对方给予答复。

（1）非正式邀请信，如；Coventry St.London

Sept.15th, 1999.Dear Jack,I am going to the cinema to see the Red River Valley and I have two tickets.Would you like to come? The film starts at 7:30 p.m.Maybe we can meet at the Covent Garden Station at 7:00 p.m.and have a drink before the film starts.Please phone me at home to let me know.Looking forward to seeing you.Love

Mary

这封信是写给朋友的，所以用语比较随便，比较口语化。

（2）正式邀请信，如：

Dear Ms.Gupta;

It’s our great pleasure to announce that Jan.19th is the 3rd anniversary of the founding of our corporation.We have a small party as follows: 7:00p.m.,Jan.19th, Room No.123, Kunlun Hotel.At this moment, we would like to express our sincere gratitude to our clients for both courtesy and support over the past three years.Please confirm if you plant to attend.Yours Sincerely,Lewis

这是一封正式邀请信，十分正规，无论从句式，还是用语都十分讲究。

(3)介于正式和非正式之间的邀请信，如：

No.4 Middle School

Beijing 100034

April 29th,2000

Dear Miss Katherine,I am very pleased to write to you.My name is Yu Hong and I am monitor of Class One, Grade Three of the No.2 Middle School of Ji'nan.Last year, you came here to give a speech, which was “Fast Reading”.My classmates and I all thank you very much.We will have an English evening at 7:00--9:00 on the evening of May 4th in our classroom.Would you please come and attend the evening party? At the party, we will sing English songs, play games and so on.And we are anxious to invite you to come to sing us an English song.After that we can enjoy the music.We hope to see you soon.Yours

Yu Hong

这封信是写给一位外籍教师的，这位外籍教师曾经到过这所学校，虽然作者认识，但并不十分了解。

2）感谢信

感谢信可分为感谢馈赠、感谢款待、感谢帮助、感谢送行和感谢探病等。

感谢信一般包括以下几点：

①对收信人的称谓；

②写信的目的；（Thank you for…）

③致谢并详述所收到的礼物或得到的帮助等；

④结尾及谦称。

如：

3)求职信

求职信属于公务信函，格式和用词比较规。信的内容大体上分为三部分

①写信的目的，②自我介绍，③要求。

注意下面几点：

①写信的目的要直截了当地在信的开头提出。

②自我介绍部分主要介绍自己的学历、工作经历、解决问题的能力等等。在行文、用词上要表现出自信、恳切的态度，语言简明扼要，突出介绍自己的优点，与众不同的特长或有利条件。还要紧扣用人单位的需求，巧用词语，有国地说服对方，此职非你莫属。

③最后提出进一步联系的途径，如：时间、地点。还可以主动提出接受面试或考核等。

④求职信在写作特点上主要用第一人称以及动词的一般现在时。如：

Ms Li Ling

P.O.Box 231

Beijing

July 10,1999

Dear sir(s),I have just read in the newspaper that a secretary of the English language in wanted in your company.I am therefore writing to you to introduce myself.I'd like to get the job.I am a girl college student of 22 years old.My name is Li Ling.I am studying in the language department.I can speak, read and write English very well.As a second language, I can read and speak a little French.I have some work experience as a typist in my spare time at school, and as a tourist guide during summer holidays.The bosses I worked for were all satisfied with my work.I am sure I'll satisfy you as well.You can get more information about my studies and work from the college.I am looking forward to visiting your office at any time for a talk or a test.Faithfully

Li Ling

4)回信

写回信时应特别注意正确理解写信人的意图、所提问题、必须对写信人的问题给予明确的答复。如下例： No.1 Middle School of Nanjing,Jiangsu, China

Jan.23rd, 2000

Dear Jack

Thanks for your letter.Yes, I have some difficulty in learning English.For example, I can't tell the difference between written English and spoken English.Sometimes I often make

mistakes while speaking to others.I want to improve my spoken English.But I don't know how.Would you please give me some advice? As you say, it is really difficult to write toe Chinese characters, but don't worry about it.Have you considered doing plenty of practice? And I suggest you write them as much as possible.I think it will be of great help.I'm looking forward to hearing from you again.Best wishes.Yours

Li Ling

原信中作者问到英语学习的情况，同时征求学习汉语的建议并谈到自己在学习汉语的过程中遇到的问题。回信中作者对来信中的问题作了详细的回答并给出了建设性的建议。

邀请信有正式和非正式之分，也有介于两者之间者。正式邀请信一般属于公函类，私人邀请信一般属于非正式文体。邀请朋友、熟人参加某一聚会时，再词句上不一 定多加斟酌，用词太正规倒显得关系不密切。但是如果与被邀请人不太熟悉的话，最好用正式文体。如虽认识但并不十分了解，文体可介于两个者之间。由此可见，私人邀请究竟用什么文体，关键看与被邀请人之间的亲疏的程度。邀请信要明确写出活动（是晚会、晚餐还是一般的聚会等）、活动的时间地点组织这项活动的理 由，有时还应告诉对方可能出席的人，另外一般希望对方给予答复。

（1）非正式邀请信，如：Coventry St.London

Sept.15th, 1999.Dear Jack,I am going to the cinema to see the Red River Valley and I have two tickets.Would you like to come? The film starts at 7:30 p.m.Maybe we can meet at the Covent Garden Station at 7:00 p.m.and have a drink before the film starts.Please phone me at home to let me know.Looking forward to seeing you.Love

Mary

这封信是写给朋友的，所以用语比较随便，比较口语化。

（2）正式邀请信，如：

Dear Ms.Gupta,It's our great pleasure to announce that Jan.19th is the 3rd anniversary of the founding of our corporation.We have a small party as follows: 7:00p.m.,Jan.19th, Room No.123, Kunlun Hotel.At this moment, we would like to express our sincere gratitude to our clients for both courtesy and support over the past three years.Please confirm if you plant to attend.Yours Sincerely,Lewis

这是一封正式邀请信，十分正规，无论从句式，还是用语都十分讲究。

（3）介于正式和非正式之间的邀请信，如：

No.4 Middle School

Beijing 100034

April 29th,2000

Dear Miss Katherine,I am very pleased to write to you.My name is Yu Hong and I am monitor of Class One, Grade Three of the No.2 Middle School of Ji'nan.Last year, you came here to give a speech, which was “Fast Reading”.My classmates and I all thank you very much.We will have an English evening at 7:00--9:00 on the evening of May 4th in our classroom.Would you please come and attend the evening party? At the party, we will sing English songs, play games and so on.And we are anxious to invite you to come to sing us an English song.After that we can enjoy the music.We hope to see you soon.Yours

Yu Hong

这封信是写给一位外籍教师的，这位外籍教师曾经到过这所学校，虽然作者认识，但并不十分了解。

2）感谢信

感谢信可分为感谢馈赠、感谢款待、感谢帮助、感谢送行和感谢探病等。

感谢信一般包括以下几点：

①对收信人的称谓；

②写信的目的；（Thank you for…）

③致谢并详述所收到的礼物或得到的帮助等；

④结尾及谦称。

3）求职信

求职信属于公务信函，格式和用词比较规。信的内容大体上分为三部分：

①写信的目的，②自我介绍，③要求。

注意下面几点：

①写信的目的要直截了当地在信的开头提出。

②自我介绍部分主要介绍自己的学历、工作经历、解决问题的能力等等。在行文、用词上要表现出自信、恳切的态度，语言简明扼要，突出介绍自己的优点，与众不同的特长或有利条件。还要紧扣用人单位的需求，巧用词语，有国地说服对方，此职非你莫属。

③最后提出进一步联系的途径，如：时间、地点。还可以主动提出接受面试或考核等。

④求职信在写作特点上主要用第一人称以及动词的一般现在时。如：

Ms Li Ling

P.O.Box 231

Beijing

July 10,1999

Li Ling

4）回信

写回信时应特别注意正确理解写信人的意图、所提问题、必须对写信人的问题给予明确的答复。如下例： No.1 Middle School of Nanjing,Jiangsu, China

Jan.23rd, 2000

Dear Jack,Thanks for your letter.Yes, I have some difficulty in learning English.For example, I can't tell the difference between written English and spoken English.Sometimes I often make

mistakes while speaking to others.I want to improve my spoken English.But I don't know how.Would you please give me some advice?

And I suggest you write them as much as possible.I think it will be of great help.I'm looking forward to hearing from you again.Best wishes.Yours

Li Ling

原信中作者问到英语学习的情况，同时征求学习汉语的建议并谈到自己在学习汉语的过程中遇到的问题。回信中作者对来信中的问题作了详细的回答并给出了建设性的建议。

1外地的游客们：

你们好！

我是古都西安的一个小市民，在我眼中，西安的的确确是一个国际旅游大都市，今天就让我来介绍介绍西安的旅游圣地吧。

秦始皇陵及兵马俑可算得上是西安名声最大的旅游圣地了吧！在兵马俑博物馆里，所有的陶人个个造型逼真，队阵规模庞大、气势雄伟，更令人惊讶的是所有陶人中竟无一雷同。

距秦始皇陵兵马俑最近的就属华清池了，这是一个沐浴的好地方，在唐代，曾是唐玄宗及爱妃杨玉环游玩沐浴的场所。现在，每年的4月到10月，每晚8点，都会在这里上演历史情景剧《长恨歌》。华清池上，就是那著名的骊山，因为远看像一匹青马，所以称为“骊山”。

在西安市区内，还有许多旅游圣地。如那具有极高艺术价值、珍藏着3000多种艺术珍品的陕西历史博物馆；又如那珍藏着王维、王羲之、吴道子等著名书法家、诗人、画家的作品的碑林博物馆，还有那有“晨钟暮鼓”之说的钟鼓楼。

在曲江新区，还有两个不得不去的地方。一是大雁塔和大慈恩寺。在大雁塔北广场，有一个孩子们都喜欢去的地方-----亚洲最大的音乐喷泉广场。二是大唐芙蓉园。这是西北最大、能充分展示盛唐风貌的大型皇家园林式文化主题公园。

西安还有城墙、青龙寺、兴庆宫公园、清真寺、半坡博物馆等一些旅游圣地。西安的旅游胜地真的多的数不胜数，还不快来西安转一转？

2亲爱的同学们：

你们好!

每个家庭都是温暖的，爱自己的家，爱自己的亲人便是爱自己。而在我们的成长中，失败后让我们不气馁的往往是父母，而成功的时候和我们一起分享喜悦的也总是我们的父母。在现在的日子里你是否想过与爸妈交朋友呢？

记得那个周日，家里买来一个大盆与一盆土，妈妈打算让我们在里面种些菜，体验下收获的乐趣。于是刚买回来我和老爸就开始动手了，我先负责把土犁好，可是犁土并不简单。于是叫来了妈吗一起帮忙。土又黑又硬，想把它犁好可不是个小事，还要便挑出里面的脏东西。妈妈先带着我犁左边的土，妈妈说：“这土这么硬，不如加点水。”听了这话我突然豁然开朗，在土里刨了刨便去准备水，拿来喷壶，那场景可热闹了。

老妈像一个指挥官，又像一个熟练兵法的老兵，先让我往那喷，她便快速的往那里刨，不过一会儿，这盆便犁好，看着它，我和老妈特高兴。接着老爸就来显神通了，让我快速把香菜种子拿过去。我心里一阵欢喜，心想：终于可以大开眼界了，老爸可是有经验的呀！他在封口处小心翼翼拿剪刀绞开，在手中先放了一个，在土里拿指头往下探，不一会儿大约一个指甲盖长短的土坑就映入我的眼帘。我睁大眼睛瞪着看他它，巴不得马上就把它学会。老爸接着从袋子中小心翼翼地拿出种子，往坑里慢慢放。我看到后急急地准备埋，可是爸爸立马拦住了我：“现在还不能埋，现在埋了，现在埋了，一会儿你又怎么记得这里埋种子了？“爸爸的话显然说服了我，接下来就是我大显身手的时候了。

我照猫画虎地埋种子一个，两个……五个，六个……十个，十一个，不一会儿，我就放满了种子。这些种子并没有我想像地那么漂亮，有点白，并不是很绿，总之，一开始我并不喜欢它。种子很小，取的时候要很小心，如果再像我这样抓取的话那么肯定种不好的。(范文网　www.xiexiebang.com)种子小到一个指甲缝一样，我真希望它能早日生长，快快长大。这几天它已发芽了，看着那一个个绿色的苗，感到一家人的功夫没白费，而我和老爸老妈的关系又进了一步。

我希望菜苗能像我一样茁壮成长，健康的长大，而我一定会像爸妈照顾我一样好好看照小菜苗。希望所有的朋友们都能和自己的爸妈交朋友，爱上自己的家庭，爱上自己的亲人，有一个平安快乐的家。

此致

敬礼

书信格式范文3:童年趣事

亲爱的妈妈：

您好！三八妇女节就要来到了，祝您节日快乐！您陪伴我走过了11个春夏秋冬，看着我一点点成长，非常感谢您。回想过去的点点滴滴，有许多难忘的童年趣事令我至今记忆犹新。

妈妈，您还记得吗？在我6岁那年，您买回来一大盒浴盐，要给我洗澡，看着盒子里白花花的盐，我十分好奇地问：“盐也能洗澡吗？”“当然了，而且洗完了还很香呢！”随后，浴缸里出现了许多雪白雪白的泡沫，它们越来越多，就像一座用棉花堆成的小山，我迫不及待地像一条小鱼似的钻进了“棉花堆”里。哇！真是好滑好香呀，一股玫瑰的香气钻进了我的鼻子，我边洗澡边玩儿起了那些可爱的泡泡们，它们在灯光的照射下，变幻着七彩的光芒，有的还被我吹到了空中，慢慢飘舞，这次的泡泡浴洗的真是太过瘾了，我一直赖在浴缸里，不愿意离开。

又过了一个星期，您没在家，爸爸让我自己洗澡，我立刻翻箱倒柜找起了您说的那个什么盐，可怎么找也没有找到，我灵机一动，反正都是盐，就从厨房里端出了盐罐子，往浴缸里放了足足五大勺，打开水龙头，可是为什么没有泡泡呢？我的“棉花山”哪里去了呢？可能洗洗就有了，我自以为是的钻进了水里，上次又滑又香的感觉完全没有了，不管我怎么撩水、拍水，就是不见泡泡的踪迹，真令我失望。很快嘴里涩涩的咸味和身上一阵阵的刺痒，令我赶紧爬了出来。您回来后，看到卫生间里满地的水和盐罐子，还没来得及开口，我就边挠着痒痒边诉苦：“您这个洗澡的盐坏了，没有泡泡，洗完了身上还特别痒。”您听后哈哈大笑起来，笑得眼角都流出了泪花，“傻孩子，炒菜的盐怎么能洗澡呢？浴盐才是洗澡用的。”随后，您从卧室里找出了浴盐，帮我又洗了一个香喷喷的泡泡浴，我的身上才不痒了，这都是我自以为是酿成的后果。

后来，每次洗澡，我都会想到这件有趣的童年往事。妈妈，您还记得吗？

敬礼！
