IV重点语法（句子成分）学会写句子★★★★
掌握五种基本句式
句子成分构成了英语中各种各样的句子，但英语中最基本的句式只有五种，其他各种句式都是由这五种基本句式转换而来。五种基本句式如下：
一、主语＋谓语(不及物动词)
该句式常用来表示主语的动作或状态。其特点为：句子的谓语动词都能表达完整的意思，这类动词叫做不及物动词，后面可以跟副词、介词短语、状语从句等。
Immediately, a crowd gathered around us.一群人马上围拢在我们的身旁。
Bathed in the sunshine, we jumped and cheered with joy.沐浴在阳光中，我们高兴得欢呼雀跃。
[演练]　完成句子

In order to keep fit, ______________________________.
2．这里高楼林立、绿树成荫。
Here ___________________________with green trees growing quickly.
【答案】1.we should exercise regularly 2. many high buildings have appeared
二、主语＋谓语(及物动词)＋宾语
该句式特点为：谓语动词均为实义动词，都是主语发出的动作，但不能表达完整的意思，必须跟有一个宾语(宾语可以由名词、代词、动名词、不定式等来充当)，即动作的承受者，才能使意思完整。
Then I wiped the dust off all the furniture.然后我扫去所有家具上的灰尘。
On the other hand, a lot of factories can"t employ enough workers.另一方面，很多工厂却雇佣不到足够的工人。
[用法指南]　该句式的谓语动词要用及物动词。如果是不及物动词，后面一定要跟介词构成及物词组。
In China, these knots stand for friendship, love and good luck.在中国，这些中国结代表友谊、爱和好运。
[演练]　完成句子

2．当今，许多大城市的人们在抱怨交通拥堵。
Nowadays, people in many big cities_________________________________.
【答案】1. we have developed a good friendship 2. are complaining about the heavy traffic
三、主语＋系动词＋表语
该句式就是常说的主系表结构。此句型侧重说明主语是什么或怎么样，谓语动词需用系动词(主要是be动词)，表语多为形容词，也可以是名词、介词短语、不定式及分词等。
Such a situation is of great concern.这样的情况引起了极大的关注。
As a matter of fact, failure isn"t so terrible.实际上，失败并非那么可怕。
[演练]　完成句子

2．全世界的环境问题正变得越来越严重。
Environmental problems __________________________all over the world.
【答案】1. country life is more beneficial 2. are becoming more and more serious
四、主语＋谓语(及物动词)＋间接宾语＋直接宾语
该句型中的谓语动词必须跟两个宾语才能表达完整的意思。一个是表示人的间接宾语；一个是表示物的直接宾语。一般间接宾语在前面，直接宾语在后面。
We should give them enough respect.我们应该给予他们足够的尊重。
At the same time, parents are giving their children too much protection.同时，父母给孩子的保护太多了。
[演练]　完成句子
1．格林先生将就如何学好英语给我们作一场报告。
___________________________________ on how to learn English well.
2．幸运的是， 她答应了我一个重新面试的机会。
Fortunately, ________________________________________ to interview.
【答案】1. Mr. Green will give us a speech 2. she promised me another chance
五、主语＋谓语(及物动词)＋宾语＋宾语补足语
该句型中的动词虽然是及物动词，但是只跟一个宾语还不能表达完整的意思，必须加上一个补充成分来说明宾语，才能使意思完整。宾语补足语是用来补充说明宾语的情况的，直接跟在宾语之后。
I will keep traffic rules in mind all the way.
我会一直牢记交通规则。
Obviously, a good learning habit can help us to speed up to reach our destinations.

V书面表达（学会写日记journal）★★★★★
如何写英语日记
【方法指导】
日记是用来叙述一天中所发生的重要事情的文体，特别是那些具有教育意义和值得回忆、查阅或参考的事情，其素材应是最有趣或最有感受的一些事情。日记的写作手法灵活，形式多样，以记叙文或简单的议论文为体裁，词数不宜太多。
1.格式
通常在左上角写日期，顺序可以是月、日、年(如August 5th,2016)，也可以是日、月、年(如5th August,2016)。月份常可写缩略式，如：Jan.，Oct.，Dec.等，如果要写星期，星期要紧挨日期，它既可以放在日期前面，也可以放在日期后面，之间不用标点，但要空一格，在右上角写天气情况(如：rainy，sunny，cloudy，fine等)，第二行开始写日记的正文。
2.时态
记日记的时间，一般是当天晚上或第二天，所做的事情已经过去了，所以动词多用过去时态，间或用过去完成时和过去进行时。当表示习惯的动作、客观事实、普遍真理、名言或谚语时，要使用一般现在时。如果要发表自己的打算或决心，可使用一般将来时。
3.表示天气状况的词语[来源:学,科,网Z,X,X,K]

参考范文
May 20th，Saturday Cloudy and drizzle
Yesterday my classmates and I went on a picnic. According to our plan we would climb the West Mountain. Early in the morning all of us gathered at the gate of our school. We started off at seven. Soon a little rain began to fall. We kept on riding for an hour till we reached the foot of the mountain.
The little rain stopped then. We began to climb. Soon we reached the top of the mountain. How beautiful it was when we looked at the view from the top. We sang，played chess，had the pictures taken on the top of the mountain and had lunch on the rocks. How happy we were!
After lunch we went down the mountain and got home at four，tired out.
