英语记叙文

第一篇：英语记叙文

记叙文是以写人、记事、状物为主要内容，以叙述和描写为表达方式的文章。以写人为主的记叙文，应该注意肖像描写、行动描写、语言描写、心理描写以及对细节的描写，考生应根据写作的要求，灵活掌握，突出重点。

以写事为主的记叙文，应该注意交待六要素（时间、地点、人物、事件、原因、结果），应该注意描写先后顺序以及记事的相对完整，注意把握好事情的开始、发展、高潮及结局。

以与景为主的记叙文，应该注意景物的主要特征，景物描写的层次，以及人与物的情感交融。

记叙文写作要点如下：

１． 明确写作目的和叙述的中心思想，段落叙述始终围绕着主题而展开，避免空间的叙述和与主题无关的内容。２． 一篇好叙述文需要直接或间接表达以下六个问题，即：when？该事发生的时间，where？该事发生的地点，who？人物角色是谁，what？发生的是什么事，why？该事发生的原因，以及how？事件的结果是如何造成的等等。３． 一篇记叙文，无论长短如何都应该是一个完全独立的事实，因此，在下笔时必须明确：该从何处开始叙述，该在何处结束叙述，以及应该提供何种事实才能使叙述完整。４． 写作顺序可以采用“顺叙”、“倒叙”和“穿插叙述”的方法，但初学者最好采用“顺叙”的方法进行训练，以情节发生时间的先后为序

记叙文也曾记事文，用于记叙事情的发展变化或人物的经历，它简单易学又很常用，所以最适合学生学习英语作文。它可以通过记日记的形式进行练习。学记叙文时习作者可将自己一天的活动（或一次活动）依时间顺序或空间顺序记下来。当然，随着写作水平的提高，以后就应该打破这种顺序的限制。

记叙文必须包括以下几点：

(1)所叙述的事件都应包括开头(beginning)，主体(main body)和结尾(ending)三个部分。不论叙述一个人或一件事，必须有情节发展的过程。有时可以有冲突、高潮，这样文章不会平淡无奇。

(2）要确定用第一人称写还是用第三人称写。第一人称使人读来亲切，第三人称容易使读者有身临其境的感觉。

(3)记叙文应该包括六要素，即：时间（when）、地点(where)、人物(who)、事件(what)、原因(why)和结果(how)。可以以事件发生的时间次序写，也可以以事件发生的先后写。以写“春游”为例，可先简单写如何准备（before the spring outing），然后是文章主体春游的过程（during the spring outing），碰到什么问题（如天气、事故等突发事件），如何解决。最后简单写感想（after the spring outing）。写活动细节要详细得当，写感想要有真实流露。叙述的方式可以分顺序、倒叙和插叙。由于记叙文总是记叙一个事件，所以往往用过去时态。

（4）记叙文难免要用对话。对话可以衬托出说话者的个性，幽默的对话可以使记叙文显得生动。

【例1】

Debbie and Simon are students.On Saturday mornings, when they are not at school, they are at work.They have part-time jobs with the Sunbeam Travel Company.They are sitting in the office.Debbie and Simon looked up as the door opened and a middle-aged, well-dressed lady entered.She glanced at them both, hesitated a moment, then walked over and sat down opposite Debbie.Debbie greeted her cheerfully, and got down to business.“I want to go by train from Germany to Paris.Can you…?”

Simon sighed, picked up some paper from his desk and took it over to the fax machine.Mr Yang, one of Sunbeam’s senior employees, was standing there.He said, “What’s up, Simon? You don’t look very happy?”

“Nothing,” Simon said.Mr Yang put his hand on Simon’s shoulder.“Come on,” he said.“Tell me.I’m your friend as well as your colleague.” He gave an encouraging smile.“It’s the customers,” Simon said.“They always prefer Debbie to me.I can’t understand it.” “I can.It’s the way you communicate.”

“How can that be?” Simon said.“I don’t even get a chance to speak to them.”

“Communicating is more than speaking and listening, Simon.Your body language is important, too.”

“What kind of language is that?”

“It’s the way you stand and sit and walk.It’s your gesture and the expression on your face and in your eyes.Your whole appearance communicates things, even when you are not speaking.”

“The way you look at customers doesn’t give them a good impression, Simon.For example, you often rest your head on your hand.You look downwards.You don’t smile.You don’t turn your head or your body toward the customers.”

“ But look at Debbie.She’s holding her head up.She looks at a customer’s eyes.She turns her head and her body towards the customer.Your body language is telling customers to go away.Debbie’s is making them feel welcome.That’s why they go to her, and not to you.”

After that, Simon tried to improve his body language.He sat up and smiled at the customers.This seemed to work.Minutes later, a very beautiful girl entered.She looked at Debbie and Simon and, without hesitation, sat down opposite Simon and gave him a big smile.A few moments late, she left, still smiling.Mr Yang came over at once and said, “Well, Simon, you certainly made a good impression on that customer.Well done.”

“That wasn’t a customer,” Simon said.“That was my sister.She wanted to borrow some money for lunch.”

这是一篇很典型的优秀记叙文。有开头、主体和结尾，有记叙文的六要素，有故事情节的发展过程。文章中的对话衬托了说话者的个性，结尾令人回味。

【例2】

A happy Journey During the Spring Festival holidays, Mother and I had been invited to spend several days at my aunt’s at Xiamen.As we had some rather heavy luggage, we had to go to the station by taxi, and father went to see us off.We bought our tickets and then sat down in the waiting room till it was time for us to leave.As we entered the platform, we had to show our tickets.We got into the carriage, which was not at all crowded, so we were able to find a good seat by the window.When the train started we said good-bye to each other, and father told us to take care of ourselves.At first I found it very interesting to look out of the window.The train traveled quickly and smoothly along, passing farms and villages, over one or two bridges and through some tunnels.After an hour or two, however, I began to feel tired of sitting still, although the seats and cushions were comfortable enough and I looked forward to the end of the journey.After a long train ride we reached our destination at last.As soon as we stepped down from the train we saw aunt and two cousins, who had come to meet us on the platform.文章第一段写了这次旅行的缘由。第二段写了买票、上车、与家人告别。第三段写了旅途的所见所闻和感受。结尾一段写了到达目的地，字里行间洋溢着作者的愉快心情。

【例3】

My Daily life I get up at six o’clock every day.I dress myself quickly and then I brush my teeth, wash my face and hands.I comb my hair.After that I go to the courtyard to do morning exercise.I read Chinese or English aloud for twenty minutes or more.I take my breakfast at ten to seven and get ready for school at sever sharp.I have four lessons in the morning and two in the afternoon.I study hard and always help my classmates with their lessons.I came home for lunch at noon and go to school again at half past one.School is over at five.After supper I read newspapers or watch TV for half an hour.I prepare my lessons between half past seven and half past nine.I go to bed at ten.The above is a brief account of my daily life on weekdays.There is no school on Sundays.I usually review my lessons in the morning and visit some friends or have a chat with my friends on the Internet in the afternoon.【例4】

An Interesting experience It was a fine day yesterday.Early in the morning, I went swimming in the sea with a friend of mine.We set out very early on bikes, carrying bottles of water, bags of cakes and so on.On the way we breathed the fresh air and laughed heartily.When we reached the shore there were already a large number of people enjoying themselves on the seashore.Some were playing in the sand and others were looking for seashells here and there.Many boys and girls were learning to swim in the sea.I couldn’t wait to jump into the sea.The sea water felt a little cold.But I was so happy that I forgot all about it.I was a little afraid at first, but my friend encouraged me and taught me.Little by little, I could swim a short distance.It was great fun to be able to float in the water.Tired from swimming we lay down on the seashore, bathing in the sun, drinking, eating, and talking about our life and future.At about 4 p.m.we returned home with salt on our bodies and freshness in our hearts.【例5】

“Thank you, Mrs Li.But you are so busy.What’s more, you are in poor health yourself.” “Never mind.” With the words, she took out of the textbook and began to explain the text.From then on she came to help me every now and then.With her help, I caught up with my classmates though I was rather poor in English before.练习题：

写法指导(writing directions)1.记叙文的结构

记叙文通常有三种结构类型:(1)顺序型:按时间发生的先后顺序所作的叙述。它能使人物,事件的叙述有头有尾,脉络清楚，有较强时空层次性，比较契合我国读者的接受心理。顺序常常不单独使用，多与其他叙述手法交叉，从而使叙述曲折生动，跌宕多姿.顺序型的结构模式是:总述+分述+结尾.这是一种按照事件开端→发展→高潮→结局的自然顺序进行叙述的客观记叙方法。(2)倒叙型:先写结局,后写事件经过的叙述方法.所谓倒叙,是把事件的结局或其发展过程中的某一重要断面提到文章前面，写完结局或断面,然后才按时间顺序写.这种笔法吸引读者。倒叙的结构式是:本事+往事.在这个模式中,本事=总叙开端+分叙发展或高潮+结尾结局.这是客观事物发展过程中的主要事件被颠倒的自然顺序的反映.倒叙文一般把本事中原有的往事写在本事的结局之后.(3)合叙型:这是顺序和倒叙互相结合的一种叙述方法.在叙述某事的过程中暂时中断线索,插入另一件事的叙述。对全文来说，插入仅是一个片段，插叙完后，文章仍回到原来的事件叙述上来。这种插叙不是叙述的主体部分，一般不会发生在主流的时间范围内。若把这种插叙删去，虽然会削弱主体的深刻性，但不明显影响主要情节的完整性。合叙型的结构模式是:总叙+结尾.2.英语记叙文的语言特点

英语记叙文的重要语言特点包括:(1)以一般过去时为主,各种时态为辅,合理使用丰富多采的谓语动词时态.(2)多用动词，特别是动态强的行为动词.(3)使用直接引语.要写好英语记叙文,就语言运用方面而言,应该在上述但方面多下功夫.3.写作方法

写好英语记叙文的基本方法是:首先明确所要记叙的要素，即五个w和一个h(when,where,who,what,why,how).一般来说，要把事件和人物活动写清楚，这六个要素缺一不可。然后，确定以第几人称的视角以及何种顺序展开记叙,以保证记叙的条理性;最后，多在塑造人物、展开情节上下功夫,使文章能引人入胜.叙文主要是由时间(when)、地点(where)、人物(who)、事件(what)、原因(why)和结果(result)六要素构成。一般来说，记叙文要把事件和人物活动写清楚，这六要素缺一不可。

叙事类写作以叙述事件为主，可以说事件是记叙的核心。写事件要交代事情的来龙去脉，可按事件发生的时间先后顺序依次叙述。同时要求重点突出，目的明确，详略得当。当然，构思新颖也是写好叙事文 的重要要求。这里的构思就是指文章的立意要新颖，组织材料和表现手法上要巧妙。在句式上，表示本人的经历或耳闻目睹的事件用第一人称，表示他人的经历和事件用第三人称。

【赏析】 a football game yesterday we had a football game against the team from class four.their players were good.we really felt a little afraid of them.but zhang xin, the leader of our class team, said, although they are good players, their team is weak.zhang xin is about 1.68 meters tall and his number is twelve.he can kick two or three goals every match.then he told us,remember that we are a team and well win the game.at the beginning of the match, a player from class four ran with the ball.zhang xin ran over quickly to stop him.he got the ball and kicked the goal!he kept on passing the ball to other players.we passed the ball to each other like him.the players from class four were getting anxious.they were angry with us.but we continued to pass the ball.at last we kicked four goals and they kicked two.we won the game!we were very happy.篇二：大学英语记叙文500字范文 a long way last semester, i worked in a restaurant at my spare time.at the beginning, it was extremely hard for me to learn the roles and remember the recipes.i had to stand there and smile.at the end of the day, i was so tired that i almost could do nothing.after a few days of working, the head waiter told me that i could take charge as a chief.i knew if i worked hard, i would take charge of a room.it meant i can get more tip.i was glad to do that.as new, it was not an easy thing to serve all customers well.sometimes, i dished up wrongly.or i forgot the customers requirements.what is worse, i overturned the plates twice.however, i could not be defeated because of these difficulties.one day, i was about to be off duty when three foreigners came here.because other colleagues could not speak english well, i had to stay to serve them.it was my first time to talk with a foreigner.however, suddenly, my mind was blank even though i had memorized 3000 words.how can i talk to them? i began to speak slowly, but think fast.excuse me, what can i do for you? i said it word by word.at the same time, i showed them the menu.no, we order ··· with some rice.they said so quickly that i seldom couldnt know what they wanted.pardon? i asked with embarrassment.oh, we want tomatoes and eggs.look at this, xi hong shi chao ji dan, he showed me a note with some chinese characters.i got it.what else? i tried my best to keep calm as i could.i had no reason to laugh at them because of my bad english.water, please.then, a pot of tea was on the table.the more terrible thing was that the rice was sold out.how can i explain this to them? we were closing the store for the night.it was normal.however, we had been alternative.hum, there is no rice left.how about noodles? like this and this.i felt embarrassed extremely.i could not translate the name to them and just showed the picture in the menu to them.maybe they were hungry, or they had no choice.they agreed me.they said something and laughed.i could hardly understand it.but it was not my business.the thing that i need to do was serve them more considerate.they were eating and i was to go back to hostel.before long, they finished their supper and said: how much? so, i had to stay more minutes.i gave them the bill.it is too expensive.they yelled.i knew it was too expensive here.but i had no idea.i could do nothing for them, just smiled to them.finally, i gave them the bills and i got rid of the serve.at the way to school, i saw them and we went the same way.they were students too.it is memorable.each for it was the first time makes a dent in my heart.gaining self-confidence means half success.i believe myself and wont lose confidence any more.篇三：英语记叙文写法

记叙文大致可以分为两大类：以记人为主的记叙文和以叙事为主的记叙文。前者主要是对人物的经历、活动或者性格特征进行叙述；后者则是对某一事件的发生、发展过程和结果进行叙述。前者重在描述人物的活动，而后者则重在表述事件的发生发展过程。

二．六大要素

记叙文的写作要注意交待清楚六大要素，即时间(time)、地点(place)、人物(character)、事件的原因(cause)、经过(process)和结果(effect)。1.简要介绍你最好的朋友。2.你们之间的故事。3.你对朋友的理解。

范文：

my best friend upon the words “best friend”, a figure jumps into my mind(jump这个词使一个人物形象活灵活现地展现在读者眼前)—zhang ye—my schoolmate in senior high school and also my best friend.during the three years in high school, we shared countless moments of laughter and tears, joy and sorrow.(排比句式能使表达更有力度，而且将与朋友的共同经历描绘得丰富多彩)she is of medium height and slim figure.though not strong, she is really a girl with amazing stamina(毅力).despite the similarities in our outlook on life and living, it is always she, the physically weaker one, who encouraged and urged me to finish some tasks when i attempted to give up.when we were preparing for the national entrance exam, she cheered me up emotionally and would give me a hand whenever i was in trouble.but for everything she did for me, i couldn’t have had this opportunity to give a decent job with a decent pay.after the exam, she got enrolled by tsinghua university in beijing while i went to a college in south china.for the past several years, we have been in touch and share everything we are experiencing, sad or happy, dull or exciting.true friendship lasts life long.friendship is a magic.it can melt the ice in one’s heart and blow away the mist on one’s mind.it can inspire others and outdo the self.(再次应用排比句式表达了对友谊真谛的理解，感人至深)i believe the friendship between zhang ye and me will be the life-time beacon for both of us.记叙文篇

记叙文写作方法与技巧 一．概念

记叙文也称叙述文，是一种以记叙/叙述的手法来表述人物、事件的文体。常见的属于记叙文文体的作品有：故事、游记、通讯、新闻报道、历史、人物传记、日记和回忆录等。记叙文大致可以分为两大类：以记人为主的记叙文和以叙事为主的记叙文。前者主要是对人物的经历、活动或者性格特征进行叙述；后者则是对某一事件的发生、发展过程和结果进行叙述。前者重在描述人物的活动，而后者则重在表述事件的发生发展过程。二．六大要素

记叙文的写作要注意交待清楚六大要素，即时间(time)、地点(place)、人物(character)、事件的原因(cause)、经过(process)和结果(effect)。

由于记叙文中所涉及的要素比其他文体相对要多、要复杂，所以整篇文章的结构安排就显得尤其重要，安排不合理就会使读者产生混乱的感觉。

记叙文的展开一般都是以时间为主线来组织所要叙述的内容，使读者对文章中的人物或事件有一个比较清晰的了解。记叙文的结构安排通常有三种形式:正叙、倒叙和插叙。正叙是英语叙述文中最常用的一种结构，即以人物出现、活动或事件开始发生的时间点作为记叙的起点，然后按照人物活动的展开、事件发生发展的自然顺序进行叙述。倒叙则是在文章的开头就交待人物活动或事件发展的结果。插叙这一结构在我们的英文写作中很少用到。

三．时态

记叙文讲述的大多是过去已经发生的活动或事件，因此用过去时态(一般过去时、过去进行时、过去将来时、过去完成时)的作品比较多。但有时为了使文章显得更加真实、亲切和生动，也可以使用现在时态(一般现在时、现在进行时、现在将来时、现在完成时)。

四．人称

记叙某个人物的经历、活动或某件事情的经过离不开叙述的主体，即 “人称”。记叙文中的人称大多采用第一人称或第三人称的形式。第一人称的叙述主观色彩较浓，可以增强文章的真实感，有利于表述细腻的情感和细节的过程；第三人称的叙述可以超越时空的限制，更加真实、客观地表述某一人物活动或事件的全过程。

无论采用第一人称，还是采用第二人称，都要保持全文叙述主体的人称的一致性。注意：句式尽量要多变，不要通篇文章的句子都以人称代词开头，否则文章会显得单调沉闷。例如: i loved the book first because of its beautiful heroine.then i found it a romantic love story which greatly moved me.i now find that it is better taken as the growth story of a naive girl into a strong-willed woman.i realize that it is the essence of the book that attracts such big number of faithful readers.这一段描述在用词、内容、逻辑上都不错，但过多地使用了以“i”开头的句子，使文章略显单调乏昧，给读者的印象大打折扣。

五．措辞与表达

在全国大学英语四级考试的各种作文体裁中，记叙文需要应试者具有更全面的语言技能与篇章组织能力。四级考试中常见的议论文和说明文分别要求语言的准确性和论证的合理性、可信性；而记叙文的语言则以生动、真实、贴切为准则。同一个记叙文题目，不同的人会描述不同的人物经历或事件，又很少有固定的表达或句式可供参考，这时作者的综合语言水平就会表现出来，对能否取得高分起到了相当重要的作用。这就要求考生平时要多注意语言的磨练和积累。

六．记叙文写作技巧

1.仔细审题，明确主题，选准素材，罗列提纲。2.写好第一段 最好能采用一个复句并且用上几个四级水平的单词或词组。这样的文章开篇方式会使读者或阅卷人确信接下来的文章也一样精彩。

我们来看这样一段文章的开头: the results of the college entrance examination came.i tore open the envelope.as soon as i saw the score，tears streamed down my face.i fell into my bed and did not get up the whole day.all was over.what is the meaning to live on earth? for the first time，i thought of death，of being a vagrant and of being single all my life.i was only seventeen.wasn’t it cruel to me? my father was hurt and he could not stand it that his son was a disgrace.he was angry beyond words.my mother kept silent，and often i saw her in tears.horror filled the house.怎么样，你自己是否也被一种失落与绝望的气氛所笼罩，并且期待着看到作者接下来会做些什么呢? 3.结构要清晰

下笔之前一定要对整篇文章的结构有一个完整的构想，作文的框架、主题和脉络是最

重要的采分点。要清楚每一段要陈述哪些内容，这样不仅可以增强文章的逻辑性和可接受性，还可以使整篇作文的行文水到渠成，不会有凑字数的烦恼。4.尽量多使用表示转折、顺接、因果和时间的连接词

如first、second、moreover、for one thing„for another、on the one hand„on the other hand等。这样既可以显示语言功底，又增强了记叙内容的连贯性和生动性。5.文章不要写得太长

有的考生遇到触动自己内心情感的记叙文题目时就“一发不可收拾”，但由于时间有限，结果草草收尾，甚至没有结尾。四级作文毕竟是应试作文，只要充分发挥出自己的英语语言水平，表述出所规定的内容就可以了。6.要多用四级词汇，要使句式多样化

没有语言错误并不是高分作文的保障（基本没有语言错误只是8分的基本要求)；作文想达到11分以上，四级词汇和句型必须达到一定的比例。如，表示“重视”的词汇有stress，emphasize等，但选用短语attach importance to更能吸引阅卷人的注意；disagree和frown on sth.都表示反对或不赞成，前者就平淡，后者表达意思很生动，更能引起阅卷老师的注意。

简单句和复合句合理搭配，长短句交替使用，会增强文章的节奏感，使描写更生动，给阅卷老师留下深刻印象。如：(1)名词化手段：用名词或名词词组替换一个句子或句子的主要部分，然后使这个名词或名词短语成为另外一个句子的组成部分，以达到合并句子的目的。如： we were very much surprised． mary refused the invitation． we were very much surprised at／by mary’s refusal of the invitation．(2)定语化手段：根据语义关系，可以把其中一句转换成形容词或形容词性成分、分词短语、定语从句等，如：

the winnerwas in no mood for speeches． the winner was hot and tired． thewinner，hot and tired，was in no mood for speeches．(转换成形容词短语)7.字迹清楚，卷面整洁。尽量不涂抹。8.最后的2—3分钟，进行修改检查。

检查的内容不是“大处着眼”，而是“小处着手”；不是考虑作文的框架结构，而是留心细枝末节。即检查：(1)动词时态是否正确(还包括主句与从句中的谓语动词时态)；(2)主谓语是否一致；

(3)代词的指代关系是否清楚； ’(4)动宾搭配是否合适；(5)用词是否错误；(6)冠词；

(7)大小写、标点符号；

(8)漏写、误写和拼写错误。

七．范文分析 directions: now you are allowed thirty minutes to write a passage on the title my best friend.you should write at least 100-120 words following the outline given below in chinese: 1.简要介绍你最好的朋友。2.你们之间的故事。3.你对朋友的理解。

范文：

my best friend upon the words “best friend”, a figure jumps into my mind(jump这个词使一个人物形象活灵活现地展现在读者眼前)—zhang ye—my schoolmate in senior high school and also my best friend.during the three years in high school, we shared countless moments of laughter and tears, joy and sorrow.(排比句式能使表达更有力度，而且将与朋友的共同经历描绘得丰富多彩)she is of medium height and slim figure.though not strong, she is really a girl with amazing stamina(毅力).despite the similarities in our outlook on life and living, it is always she, the physically weaker one, who encouraged and urged me to finish some tasks when i attempted to give up.when we were preparing for the national entrance exam, she cheered me up emotionally and would give me a hand whenever i was in trouble.but for everything she did for me, i couldn’t have had this opportunity to give a decent job with a decent pay.after the exam, she got enrolled by tsinghua university in beijing while i went to a college in south china.(对3年中两人共同勉励、共同奋斗经历的叙述为读者展示了一段难忘的人生时光，确实不愧为best friend)for the past several years, we have been in touch and share everything we are experiencing, sad or happy, dull or exciting.true friendship lasts life long.friendship is a magic.it can melt the ice in one’s heart and blow away the mist on one’s mind.it can inspire others and outdo the self.(再次应用排比句式表达了对友谊真谛的理解，感人至深)i believe the friendship between zhang ye and me will be the life-time beacon for both of us.评析：

这是一篇典型的人物记叙文。大多数人物记叙文都遵循一个比较固定的写作套路，即: 第一段叙述文中人物与作者的关系，并对人物进行综合评价;第二段叙述文中人物其个人或与作者共同的某段经历、活动;第三段进行综合叙述。本文的第一段总体叙述了两个人相识相知的经历并用一个排比结构总括了两人共同经历的苦与乐、欢笑与泪水(laughter and tears，joy and sorrow)。第二段通过对具体事例的叙述将人物的性格特点表现得淋漓尽致，也丰富了best friend这个称谓的具体内涵。最后一段作者陈述了自己对友谊真谛的感悟，使文章的主题得到升华。而其中所使用的句式和词汇(melt the ice in one’s heart;blow away the mist on one’s mind;inspire others and outdo the self)也展示了作者深厚的语言功底。

八．参考模版 篇五：英语记叙文 记叙文_英语题库

要点概述：

记叙文是以记人、叙事、写景、状物为主要内容，以记叙、描写为主要表达方式的一种文体，通常分为三类： 1.以人物为主的记叙文，即以人物为中心组织材料，围绕这个人物来写一件事或两件事。2.以事件为主的记叙文。即以事件为中心组织材料，围绕中心事件，可以写一个人或几个人。3.以写景状物为主的记叙文，应注意的是，在一篇记叙文中，写人、写景、写事往往是交织在一起的，不可截然分开，但各有侧重。

写记叙文通常应遵循以下几点： 1.交待要素，即人、时、地、事。2.按事件发生的先后顺序叙述，做到完整具体。3.重点突出，目的明确，不要玩弄词藻，讲清言明即可。

写作时还要注意，用第一人称时主要是本人的经历或耳闻目睹之事；用第三人称时则主要是他人的经历和事情。记叙文所记的都是过去发生的事，所以原则上通常都用过去时态写，但有时也用历史现在时和戏剧现在时。

第三篇：英语记叙文

今年夏天，我在广州一家生产圣诞树的工艺品公司工作。可能这是至今为止我一生中最劳累和艰辛的经历。庆幸的是，在这段时间里，我的好友王燕陪我一起度过。

每天，我们六点起床，必须在7点之前吃完早餐，因为7点就是我们上班时间。我的工作岗位叫组合，就是把制作圣诞树的叶子用铁丝根据指导员所给的订单做成不同类型的枝条。这些听起来简单，也确实不是难事，因为它们是体力劳动面非脑力劳动。我们的工作时间是从早上7点到12点，下午13：40到18：40，晚上17：40到21：40，一共12个小时。在我工作期间没有椅子可坐，只能一直站着。如果我被发现拿来什么东西当作椅子，我将受到扣工资的处罚。因为在管理者的眼里，这项工作站着完成效率更高。公司还有很多其他苛刻的条款。比如，如果我是3楼的工作人员去了2楼的卫生间上厕所，将被认为违反厂规。如果我去卫生间的时间超过他们的规定，将被视为旷工。监督的人不需要在车间内视察，因为他们在每个角落都装有摄像头，只需坐在办公室里瞪着他们的双眼观察视屏就够了。如果发现某人违反了某条规定，立刻有人来到你工作的位置，递给你一张写有你违反某条规定并附有公司总裁签名的内部罚单。

刚开始的几天，因为长久的站立，我的脚很痛，我的朋友也是。但我们互相鼓励，我们相信我们可以坚持下去。后来，渐渐地脚麻木了，感觉不到痛了。在我的工作岗位上很容易被铁丝弄伤。每天我的双手，双腿上有很多小伤口。可悲的是，每天我都要洗衣服。你可以想象，满是伤口的双手泡在放有洗衣粉的水里是什么感觉，那种钻心的疼痛让我想大哭一场。很长一段时间，全身都是麻木的，手上，胳膊上，腿上受伤了都毫无感觉，直到晚上回到寝室洗澡才发现早已干枯的血迹。每个星期天的下午我们放假。也许你会认为我们可以好好的去放松一下，但对我们而言这是不可能的。一个星期高负荷的体力劳动耗尽了我们的力气。我们任何地方也不想去，只想躺在床上恢复体力。

正如哲学上常说的一句话：任何事都有两面性。正因为工作的辛苦，使我认识到将来要以脑力劳动者而不是体力劳动者的身份工作是多么重要。人们常说：幸福要对比才能知道。当我在那个公司里工作时，我想幸福就是能坐在教室里认真啃课本，而不是在36℃的高温下做体力劳动。

This summer, I was in Guangzhou Christmas tree arts and crafts a production company.Perhaps this is by far the most tired of my life and trying experience.Fortunately, at this time, Wang Yan, my friends with me through.Every day we get up at six, you must eat breakfast before 7 o'clock, because 7:00 is our time to work.I called the combination of jobs, is to make the leaves the tree with wire

every Sunday afternoon.You might think we can go to relax properly, but for us it is impossible.High load of manual labor a week exhausted our strength.We do not want to go anywhere, just lying in bed to recuperate.As philosophy often say: anything has two sides.Because of hard work, made me realize that going to be the mental rather than manual work as how important it is.People often say: happy

第四篇：英语记叙文：The Present

The Present

It was the old lady's birthday.She got up early to be ready for the post.From the second floor flat she could see the postman when he came down the street, and the little boy from the ground floor brought up her letters on the rare occasions when anything came.Today she was sure the would be something.Myra wouldn't forget her mother's birthday, even if she seldom wrote at other times.Of course Myra was busy.Her husband had been made Mayor, and Myra herself had got a medal for her work the aged.The old lady was proud of Myra, but Enid was the daughter she loved.Enid had never married, but had seemed content to live with her mother, and teach in a primary school round the corner.One evening, however, Enid said, “I've arranged for Mrs.Morrison to look after you for a few days, Mother.Tomorrow I have to go into hospital——just a minor operation, I'll soon be home.”

In the morning she went, but never came back——she died on the operating table.Myra came to the funeral, and in her efficient way arranged for Mrs.Morrison to come in and light the fire and give the old lady her breakfast.Two years ago that was, and since then Myra had been to see her mother three times, but her husband never.The old lady was eight today.She had put on her best dress.Perhaps——perhaps Myra might come.After all, eighty was a special birthday, another decade lined or endured just as you chose to look at it.Even if Myra did not come, she would send a present.The old lady was sure of that.Two spots of colour brightened her cheeks.She was excited——like a child.She would enjoy her day.Yesterday Mrs.Morrison had given the flat an extra clean, and today she had brought a card and a bunch of marigolds when she came to do the breakfast.Mrs.Grant downstairs had made a cake, and in the afternoon she was going down there to tea.The little boy, Johnnie, had been up with a packet of mints, and said he wouldn't go out to play until the post had come.“I guess you'll get lots and lots of presents,” he said, “I did last were when I was six.”

What would she like? A pair of slippers perhaps.Or a new cardigan.A cardigan would be lovely.Blue's such a pretty colour.Jim had always liked her in blue.Or a table lamp.Or a book, a travel book, with pictures, or a little clock, with clear black numbers.So many lovely things.She stood by the window, watching.The postman turned round the corner on his bicycle.Her heart beat fast.Johnnie had seen him too and ran to the gate.Then clatter, clatter up the stairs.Johnnie knocked at her door.“Granny, granny,” he shouted, “I've got your post.”

He gave her four envelopes.Three were unsealed cards from old friends.The fourth was sealed, in Myra's writing.The old lady felt a pang of disappointment.“No parcel, Johnnie?”

“No, granny.”

Maybe the parcel was too large to come by letter post.That was it.It would come later by parcel post.She must be patient.Almost reluctantly she tore the envelope open.Folded in the card was a piece of paper.Written on the card was a message under the printed Happy Birthday —— Buy yourself something nice with the cheque, Myra and Harold.The cheque fluttered to the floor like a bird with a broken wing.Slowly the old lady stooped to pick it up.Her present, her lovely present.With trembling fingers she tore it into little bits.El Nino El Nino means “little boy” in Spanish;when capitalized, it refers to the Christ child.This innocent-sounding name originated in the 19th century, when Peruvian sailors noticed that every few years around Christmastime, waters near the coasts warmed up and the current shifted southward.But this “little boy” plays havoc around the globe.El Nino occurs when weather patterns in the tropical Pacific shift violently.Normally, strong westward-blowing trade winds off South America push surface water toward Asia.Just as blowing on hot coffee pushes the liquid up against the opposite side of the cup, the trade winds pile warm water against the coastlines of Australia, Indonesia and the Philippines.Above the warm water, moist air rises, lowering atmospheric pressure and triggering the tropical showers that nourish the rain forests of Asia.Meanwhile high-altitude winds travel back toward South America.There, the cooled air sinks, raising atmospheric pressure and suppressing rain along most of the Pacific coast, making it one of the driest regions in the world.But with El Nino, the pattern reverses.Atmospheric pressure in the Western Pacific rises, setting the stage for drought from Australia to India.The trade winds decrease, or in extreme years reverse to blow eastward.As a result, a huge mass of warm water flows back toward South America, causing storms from Chile to California.Meanwhile, over the Pacific, ten-mile-high storm clouds further heat the atmosphere, fueling a stronger-than-normal jet stream, which often splits in two.One branch moves north, warming the Pacific Northwest, central Canada and Alaska.Another branch surges south, producing heavy rains in the U.S.Gulf States and Southwest.El Nino's vast impact on humans has often been catastrophic.The El Nino of 1982-83 inflicted $13 billion in damage and claimed some 2,000 lives.In Australia day turned to night when a dust storm blanketed Melbourne;brush fires raged in its wake.In place of its normal monsoon, Southern India got dried-up crops and the threat of mass starvation.At the same time, violent rainstorms devastated the Western Hemisphere: Peru's fishing industry — once one of the richest in the world — was wiped out, and seaside towns were washed into the Pacific.Is there a good side to El Nino? There can be.Zebiak notes that the number of tropical hurricanes in the Atlantic is reduced during an El Nino year.One theory is that winds created by El Nino shear off the tops of Atlantic hurricanes, aborting them before they reach full force.And a team of scientists in Israel who study tree rings and satellite cloud pictures concluded that El Nino may bring precious moisture to the thirsty Middle East.A new study even shows the EI Nino deserves credit for encouraging plant growth and helping to control pollutant to global warming.Forms of Transportation People traveling long distances frequently have to decide whether they would prefer to go by land, sea, or air.Despite the fact most of people choose to travel by train or bus, the most popular forms of transport in China, I like to go by air.(点出要比较的交通工具，表明自己的选择是飞机)Hardly anyone can positively enjoy sitting in a train for more than 10 hours.（主题句）Though the price is reasonable, I can’t bear the notorious condition that train compartments often get cramped and stuffy.Reading or talking to your seatmates are only a partial solution, for the monotonous rhythm of the wheels clicking on the rail soon lulls you to sleep.（首先讨论乘火车：其优点是廉价，但缺点是不舒服，时间长）

Long bus journeys are even less pleasant, for it is quite impossible even to read.（主题句）Though you can travel fairly safely at high speeds since highways are built, the greater part of the journey is still spent on the narrow, bumpy roads which are crowded with traffic.Like the train journey, you arrive at your destination almost exhausted.（其次讨论乘长途汽车：其缺点同样是不舒服，耗时间）

Nothing can match airplanes for speed and comfort though they have the reputation of being dangerous(in fact, the accident rate is much lower than traveling by train and bus).For a couple of hours you sit in a deep armchair to enjoy an exhilarating experience: the extraordinary sight of mountains and deep valleys bellow, of unbroken clouds with the sun shining brilliantly above.The journey is so smooth and fast that you arrive at the destination before you know where you are.（最后讨论飞机，其优点是速度快有舒服）

True, airplanes have the grave disadvantages of being the most expensive form of transport.But nothing is precious than time.Not only does the flight take you only a few hours, but you arrive fresh and uncrumpled.You won’t have to spend the next day recovering from a long and arduous journey like traveling by train and bus.（承认飞机出游的缺点是价格昂贵，但通过对时间的看法，进一步说明乘飞机的好处）Chinese Children and American Children All young children, whatever their culture, are alike in their charm and innocence — in being a clean slate on which the wonders and ways of the world are yet to be written.But during the years I study in a college near Chicago, I learned that American and Chinese children are different in several ways.（引出要比较的主题：美国小孩和中国小孩）

First, young American children tend to be active, enthusiastic and direct.They express themselves openly whatever they want to say.Chinese children, on the other hand, tend to be passive, quiet and to beat around the bush when voicing their demand.They usually wait to be asked and are lacking in initiative spirit.（美国孩子主动，直率；中国孩子被动，婉转）

Second, American children show their independence.They pride themselves on making their own decision and being responsible for it.Their Chinese counterparts, however, are still looking to their parents and grandparents to tell them what to do in terms of which school they should select and which job they should accept.（美国孩子独立性强；中国孩子依赖性强）

Third, American children tend to more self-reliant.They are taught to believe that money is earned not given.They buy things with their own money.Every piece of housework — be it washing the dishes or mowing the lawn — has a price.But their Chinese counterparts don’t have any knowledge of earning money through housework.They take it for granted that their parents will pay for anything they fancy.（美国孩子做家务为了钱；中国孩子没有做家务挣钱的观念）Children who grow up in a particular culture share certain values and assumptions.It is not surprising that in a society where individualism and self-reliance are stressed, children behave more confidently and independently, while in a culture which places the value on respectfulness and moderation, children are more quiet and passive.（归纳：中美两国孩子多方面的不同反映了两国价值观念的不同）

Modes of Traveling With the increased standard of living and the declining working weeks, more and more city-dwellers are taking their holidays in scenic spots and places of interest.Most of them like to join package tours as this mode of travel is said to be most convenient.But I prefer to travel individually for freedom.(倾向于自助旅游)It is true that joining a package tour can bring great convenience.You don’t have to worry about room and board during the travel, nor about your transportation.The guide will take care of everything.What you do is to follow the guide and enjoy the scenery.But you lose your freedom for this.At the sight of his/her flag waving, you have to take yourself away from the scenes you are marveling at and follow the guide whose sole interest is to cover all spots according to his schedule, regardless of the weather or your health condition.（先肯定旅行社优点，马上分析其缺点）

Individual travel, however, gives you a great degree of freedom.In climbing mountains, you can choose to drive up in cable cars, or take pleasure in the process of climbing.You can decide when to start your way, where to linger a little longer and which spot to be skipped over to save time for another spot.You can always adjust your plan.（转到自助旅游，详细阐述其优点）

Traveling alone, you may encounter inconvenience such as getting accommodation for the night and a place for meals.But you can choose the hotel and restaurant to your liking, and avoid the embarrassment of being forced to share a table or a room with a stranger.（用一句话承认自助旅游有食 宿困难，但在这一点上继续分析其优点）

To have a holiday tour is to enjoy and relax yourself, and to relax thoroughly, freedom is of essence.If you lose the freedom of action, it is no longer a holiday in anything but name.For this reason I like traveling alone with several friends.（归纳自助旅游优点，结论）

Studying Abroad With the improved living standard and China more open to the world, more and more young people choose to pursue their higher education in foreign countries, such as America, Britain or Australia.Generally speaking, the advantages of studying overseas outweigh its disadvantages.(利弊兼具，作者并无明显的赞成或反对态度)The main benefit of studying abroad is academic one.Obviously in western colleges and universities, the laboratories are more sophisticated, and book resources more up-to-date.More importantly, they have first-rate professors who are aware of all the latest developments in their respective fields.Hence the standard of teaching is much higher.Besides academic benefits, there are other advantages.For example, exposure to foreign culture and contact with students from different countries and different backgrounds will broaden their mind and make them more tolerant.Living alone in the foreign land will also offer greater opportunity to develop their independence, their personalities and many other interpersonal skills.Despite these obvious advantages, we should not overlook negative effects.For example, the overseas students may experience loneliness and homesickness, an experience so overwhelming that many could not endure it.Though overseas study has its drawbacks, the advantages are obvious.Provided that it is financially feasible, an oversea education may do a person more good than harm.（谨慎的肯定态度）Will Phones Kill Letter Writing?

According to a recent survey made by the China Daily, about 200 million Chinese are using phones as their daily communications means instead of writing letters.So some people say that phones will kill letter writing.But I don’t think so.My argument that phones will not kill letter writing lies in at least three aspects.First, letter writing as a traditional way of communication still has some advantages over phones.For example, if people want to express something confidential to their close friends, they will turn to letter writing.Another example is that rural workers who are working far away from their hometown are more likely to write letters to their families than to make phone calls for the purpose of saving money.Second, letter writing is more authoritative and formal in some way.For instance, people who are doing business will write formal business letters to do a deal;people who want to recommend or introduce someone to someone else will write letter of recommendation or letter of introduction, etc.Last but not least, letter writing is still regarded as a token of friendship among friends.People always write letters to show their everlasting love and affection.All in all, letter writing is still very popular among people.It is still a good way for people to communicate with each other and it is impossible to be killed by phones.Easy Ways to Avoid an Argument

It's natural to take offense if someone is rude.You may think, what a jerk!But blurting out how you feel will only make matters worse.Dealing with difficult people is a part of everyday life, and there are ways you can stand up for yourself without starting an argument.I call these techniques “ Tongue Fu!” Handle arguments with humor.All of us tend to lose our temper.If you find yourself in a difficult situation, try having fun with it.As an IRS worker explained to me, “ Almost everyone who comes in here is hostile.Instead of taking offense, we've posted bulletin boards with comic strips that poke fun at the IRS, which we jokingly call the Income Removal Service.When taxpayers see these, their attitudes change for the better.” When people complain, don't explain.The phone rings at work.You pick up and the caller launches into a complaint: “I asked for a catalogue three weeks ago and I still don't have it!What kind of business are you running, anyway?” Don't bother explaining that half the staff is out with the flu.Well-intentioned though they may be, such explanations usually add to the complainer's anger because they come across as excuses.Avoid explaining in detail what went wrong.Instead, agree, apologize and then move on to what can be done about it.Simply say: “You're right.I'm sorry you haven't received it yet.If I can have your name and address again, I'll personally put it in the mail to you today.” Agree to disagree.A man I know said he and his wife went to her parents' house for dinner one night.“While we were eating,” he recalled, “I mentioned that the highway construction was stalled again.My father-in-law said he was glad.'That highway never should've been built!It's destroying an important historical valley.' ”Well, I spend over an hour each way commuting to work.I told him I thought the highway was a necessary evil because there are four times as many cars as there were ten years ago, on the same number of road.My wife's dad grumbled that it was typical of my selfish generation to think more about our commuting time than a significant archeological site.“I lost my patience and said, 'You can't stop progress.' That did it.My father-in-law stood up and walked away, saying, 'I don't have to sit here and listen to this at my own dinner table.' ”I wish the whole thing had never happened.If I had been alert to his feelings about the matter, I could have prevented the whole unfortunate incident by saying, 'Let's agree to disagree about this,' and politely directing the conversation to something else.“ One effective way to avoid an argument is to say, ”We're both right!“ and move on to a safer topic.For example, you and your wife disagree about how to discipline your teenager, and your discussion is turning into an argument.Just because you aren't seeing eye to eye doesn't mean you're enemies.Saying ”Hey, we both want the same thing" can get you out of the quarrelsome mode and get you working together again.No matter what the situation, augments are a waste or, at best, a misuse of time.By avoiding meaningless arguments, everybody wins.
