【点睛】
连词成句的技巧
技巧一
首先在做题时要将第一个单词大写，其次要注意句中的标点符号。如果是陈述句一定要先找到主语，然后找动词，一定要将时间和地点放在后面。如果是疑问句，要先找到疑问词，然后找助词，主语，在没有疑问词的情况下找动词，再找主语。
技巧二
注意特殊句型，连词成句的题目其实有规律可循。
技巧三
注意句子是否完整，有很多学生做完题目之后会出现句子不完整，单词抄错的情况，这就是常见的漏词、有错别字的情况。在平时要养成良好的学习习惯，做完题之后要认真检查。在英语中人名、专有名词有需要大写，与中文有很大区别，所以在平时要特别注意。如果是完整的句子有主谓宾，介词需要放在句子末尾，数量放在名词前面。

【答案】范文：
Trees are important to us
Trees are really important in our daily lives. They take in harmful gases and release oxygen into the air for people and other living things to breathe. They make our city more beautiful and less noisy. A lot of things that we use come from trees. The benches we sit on in the parks, the nuts we eat and the pencils we use are all from trees.
However, nowadays, trees on the earth are in great danger. We must try our best to protect the trees, woods and forests on the earth and plant more trees every year.
In a word, trees are our good friends.
