2.话题分析
围绕这一话题,命题人常常设置让学生就自己喜欢的电视节目或电影发表自己见解的写作题目。在写此类话题作文时要掌握表达自己喜好或观点的短语和句型,明确对某一事物的看法,并说明原因。时态以一般现在时为主。

I asked some of my friends about their favorite TV shows. Here are their answers.① Judy likes soap operas best② because she thinks they are very funny and romantic. Alex's favorite TV shows are sports shows. He likes doing sports and he wants to know more about sports. Li Ling likes to watch English shows. She likes English very much. She wants to learn it well and improve her listening. As for③ me, I like talent shows. I don't mind English shows or sports shows but I can't stand soap operas because they are too boring.
例文解析
①开篇引出话题,简洁明了。
②学习 Judy likes …best、Alex's favorite …等句式的变化,避免表达句式单一,增强文章的可读性。
③学习 as for、don't mind、can't stand等短语的运用,学以致用,使文章意思连贯,表达准确。
易错提醒:
A. favorite本身意为“最喜欢的”,故没有最高级形式。
B. boring“令人厌烦的”,一般用来修饰物。此处不能用 bored。
