一、英语日记的写作格式:
1、日记的第一行,要写明年、月、日与星期,然后要写明当天的气候状况,如果是游记,还要写明地点。
下面是一些常用的描写天气的英语词语:
寒冷 icy cold; 炎热 scorching heat; 晴 clear ; 阴 overcast ; 多云 cloudy ;
小雨 light rain ; 大雨 heavy rain; 毛毛雨 drizzle; 阵雨 shower;
下雪 snow; 冰雹 hail; 虹 rainbow;北风 north wind ;西南风 southwester; 东南风 southeaster;东北风northeaster;西北风 northwester;
2、日记正文
可以是叙事、描述、说明、议论等各种形式。其实,由于日记是非常随便的,因此上述文体常常结合在一起使用。日记内容取自生活,可长可短,有时无事可记,一两句也可以。切忌今天记,明天不记,三天打鱼,两天晒网,破坏了记日记的情趣。另外,日记也应该尽可能讲究一些文采,切忌写成流水账。
二、以下是写英语日记的一些注意事项:
1、注意英语日记的格式:
英语日记的格式是:在左上角写日期、星期。日期的写法是:月、日、年、星期几,如:M arch 10th,2002,Sunday 2002年3月10日,星期日(也可以写成:Sunday,March 10th,2002.)。
写好日期之后,在该行的右边写上该天的天气情况,常用形容词或名词表示。如:Sunny,Fine,Cloudy,Windy,Rainy,Snowy,Foggy(雾),Frosty(霜),Stormy(暴风雨)等。
日记可以有标题,但通常省略。日记的正文是日记的主要部分,写在星期和日期的正下方,可以顶格写,也可以内缩3—5个字母。
2、注意英语日记的内容:
日记是每天生活的记载。生活的内容很广泛,但写作时应有所选择,最好是记下当天最有意义、感受最深的事情,不可详略不分地记流水账。日记的写法灵活、形式多样,可以叙事,可以明理,也可夹叙夹议。所使用的句子最好用自己学过的且很熟悉的句型。尽量避免长句,少用一些华丽的词藻。
3、注意英语日记的时态:
由于日记一般是在晚上记载当天所发生的事,因此谓语动词通常用一般过去时态或现在完成时态,有时也可以用一般现在时态。
4、注意英语日记的人称:
由于日记的内容多是记叙自己亲身经历、耳闻目睹或抒发自己的感想,所以多用第一人称I或we(有时也可把I或we省略)。
写英语日记,能使听、说、读、写、译等基本技能得到全面发展,希望大家能持之以恒地写日记,从而提高自己的英语水平。
三、下面是一篇关于寒假的日记。
January 18, 2013 Friday Sunny
I am free now as I am spending my winter holiday.
Although we have some homework, we can finish them in several days. And the rest time we can make good use of. My god! We have been very tired after hard studying. In winter holidays, I want to have full sleep and eat good food in order to replenish myself. Last but not the least, I will have a good rest.
I have rested for a week. I began to feel bored. So I went out with my friends. They are my best friends in the middle school. We didn’t go to someplace special. We just saw the other. We had lunch together. While we were having lunch, we were still talking about the new school and new friends. Yes! A year later, we have grown riper. And we learned much more things and got new life. We haven’t enough time to play, to waste and to lose the way. We only have two years. Two years to go, we will get the real life which belongs to us.
