用英语记日记是提高英语写作技能的有效方法之一。 与其他写作形式相比, 它短小, 省时。它能帮助我们培养用英语思考的习惯。如果我们坚持这样做, 渐渐地我们就学会了用英语来表达我们的思想。
在用英语记日记的过程中, 我们不可避免地要遇到许多困难。首先, 经常发生这样的事, 我们很难找到恰如其分的词或短语来表达我们的思想。其次, 在汉语中有许多习惯说法, 我们很难把它们准确地译成英语。 当然, 还有一些其他的困难, 我们可能在用英语记日记中遇到。
至于我, 我的建议是, 我们应该在手头随时准备好一个笔记本和一本汉英词典。每当有困难的东西难住我们时, 我们可以先在笔记本记下来, 然后查词典。如有必要, 我们也可以向英语老师请教。 总之, 我认为, 用英语记日记对提高写作能力是十分有用的。
Keeping a diary in English is one of the effective ways to improve our English writing ability. Compared with other forms of writing, it is shorter and takes less time. It can help us to cultivate the habit of thinking in English. If we persist in this practice, gradually we’ll learn how to express ourselves in English.
In keeping a diary in English, we inevitably run up against a lot of difficulties. In the first place, it often happens that we have trouble finding appropriate words and phrases to give expression to our mind. Secondly, there are many idiomatic ways of saying things in Chinese. And it is extremely hard for us to put them into English properly. Certainly, there are some other roadblocks we may come across in our keeping a diary in English. |
