参考范文(提升版):
Everyone has his dream job. Some want to be teachers and some want to be doctors. For me, I want to be a writer.
Becoming a writer in the future has always been my dream, because I feel excited about writing my own stories. Besides, it's enjoyable to read the interesting works of those great writers. I hope that one day my stories will be interesting enough for people to read.
In order to get closer to my dream, I know what I need to do every day. It includes not only trying to read books every day, but also sharing my ideas with teachers and friends. These are just the first two things to make my dream come true. There is still a long way to become a writer, but I will try my best to keep doing it.
这是一篇提纲作文。时态是一般将来时和一般现在时,本文要求以"放飞梦想,成就自我"为题结合提示内容完成这篇发言稿,写作中要首先介绍自己的梦想职业是什么;然后介绍原因;最后介绍怎样实现梦想职业的原因。注意运用好词好句,同时注意恰当使用连词,使文章上下文联系更为紧密。
作文内容全面,运用好词好句,如:for sb.;dream of doing sth.;feel excited about doing sth.;want to do;in the future;enjoy doing sth.;make one's dream come true;need to do sth.;try to do sth.;share...with...;at first;in order to do;get closer to;not only...but also;keep doing sth.等。好词好句的运用为文章增色不少,如:现在完成时和状语从句I have always dreamed of being a writer in the future, because I feel excited about writing my own stories.;宾语从句和状语从句I hope that one day my stories will be interesting enough, so people can enjoy reading mine.;宾语从句To make my dream come true, I know what I need to do every day.;动名词做主语Becoming a writer in the future has always been my dream, because I feel excited about writing my own stories.等。连词because、besides、so、but、not only...but also、and的运用使文章上下文联系更为紧密。
4.One possible version:Dear Jim, How's everything I haven't heard from you for a long time. I miss you very much. I have finished my exams. I did very well in the exams. Now I'm spending my holiday at home. I'm very busy every day, especially today. I have so many chores to do. I have to do my homework, of course. I started about an hour ago, but I haven't finished. Then I have to water flowers and do some shopping. My father has just bought me a personal computer. In the evening I will have a computer class. Now I have learned to send e-mails to my friends. It's very interesting. I'm looking forward to hearing from you.Yours,Li Ming
首先要认真阅读前面的提示认真审题,确定文章的中心。注意文章文体、人称和时态。本文主要李明向吉姆介绍自己的最近情况,因此现在完成时和一般现在时运用较多。根据情景的发展,按顺序安排好材料。同时应选用合适的连接词或过渡词,使文章具有一定的连贯性。当然,写作时尤要注意文章结构的合理,表述的条理性和准确性。要使用一些固定短语和句型,如heard from;do well in; water flowers;I have so many chores to do;My father has just bought me a personal computer等这些短语和句子的运用会让文章增色不少。
学习中注意总结,牢记一些固定句式及短语,写作时就可以适当引用,使文章的表达更有逻辑性,更富有条理。
