今天4月10日,星期天。你和李明一起在家做老师在课上讲的实验:将蜡烛放在装了水的盘子里,点燃一会儿后,上面盖上一个玻璃杯,蜡烛熄灭后,杯中的水面会升高。请将这一实验过程以日记的形式记下来。
要求:80个单词左右,格式正确,表达准确。
Sunday,April 10
Today was (1) Sunday. I stayed at home. Li Ming came to see me. He said,“Have you remembered an (2) experiment that the teacher told us in class?Lets do it. OK?” So we put a candle,a glass and a dish on the desk. We made the dish half full of water,put the candle on the dish,and then lit it. After the candle burned for three minutes,we put the glass on (3) the candle. After a while the candle stopped burning,and the water inside the glass rose. How interesting the experiment was!I love science!

名师总评:
小作者的日记紧扣题目的要求,符合日记的格式,词数也符合要求。行文流畅,意思连贯。文中的连接词和从句使用得当。作者在对实验过程进行描述时,准确地运用了几个并列的动词,例如文中下加线部分用and连接三个并列的动词,使动作连贯,语义紧凑。最后两个感叹句充分表达了作者对科学实验的兴趣和热爱。日记中虽然有几处错误,但瑕不掩瑜,这仍是一篇较好的作文。
修改点拨:
(1) 日记是星期天当日所写,所以应将was改为is。 此处出现这种错误,可能是因为后文多用过去时态所所致。
(2) experiment后面跟有一个限制性定语从句,前面应用定冠词the,可用来特指今天课堂上所做的试验。故应将an改为the。
(3) 玻璃杯是罩在蜡烛“上”的,所以应将on改为over。 over有“(笼罩)在……上”的意思。

随着物质生活水平的不断提高,人们对生活的质量有了更高的要求。养成良好的生活习惯,要求有一个健康的身体,都是自然而然的事情。请根据如下提示,写一篇题为“Good Eating Habits and Health”的短文,词数:100个单词左右。
提示:
1. 过去人们的饮食习惯。
2. 现在人们的生活水平提高了,人们的饮食习惯发生了改变。
3. 日常生活中人们吃的肉、鱼、蛋类食物以及垃圾食物过多了。
4. 对保持健康的几点建议。
Good Eating Habits and Health
Today,people know that it is important to have good eating habits and keep health (1). In the past,people ate three meals at home. At that time they ate less meat and fish but more vegetable (2). They were very strong and seldom fell ill.
Now life has become better and peoples eating habits have changed. They eat more meat,fish,eggs and the (3) other foods with more fat and often enjoy eating junk food as (4) hamburgers,hot dogs,French fries and chips. But they are not good for health and people may become ill somehow. Why?
I think more meat,fish and junk food,less exercise are bad for health. The better our life,the more important for us to get into good eating habits.

名师总评:
作者开门见山,直接切入主题,短文紧紧围绕所给的提示进行阐述。条理分明,行文较连贯,层次清楚。作者能够正确地使用英语中的重点句式,如: it is important to do ...; the more ...,the more ...,简单句和复合句交替使用,因此读起来流畅顺口。作者不只是简单地陈述饮食习惯与健康有关这一事实,而且还对如何保持健康提出了自己的看法。文中有几处错误应注意改正。
修改点拨:
(1) 将health改为healthy。 “保持健康”通常用keep healthy表示,其中keep为系动词,后接形容词作表语。
(2) vegetable为可数名词,应改为vegetables。 此处出错是因为作者在行文中的惯性思维,受前文meat,fish影响所致。
(3) the other通常指两者或两部分中的“另一……”,含特指意义。此处并非特指,所以应去掉定冠词the。
(4) 应将as改为介词like或在as前加such。
