黄石公园于1871年成立,是当时世界上第一个国家公园。如今,举世闻名的黄石公园,已经成为国家公园的名片和样本,或可以说它已经超越了美国第一国家公园的地位,成为世界各地的游人追求亲临的景点之一。
第三天,我们一早出发,前往黄石公园。路上,我们参观了熊世界(Bear World),其实要我说,就是一个动物世界,这里面不仅有灰熊棕熊大熊小熊,还有狼、鹿、牛、猪、火鸡、孔雀、鸭子、天鹅,甚至还有一个特别稀有的动物种——四不像!我们在熊世界中参观了许久,看到这些可爱的动物,很高兴也很激动,依依不舍的离去了。
黄石公园的温度很低,天气也比较恶劣,时雨时晴,这样的季节甚至还会下雪。开天窗的晴天机会比较少,但是,导游这个天气预测专家,估计当天下午会晴天,于是就带着我们左右奔波,在黄石公园内疯狂的游览。虽然说累点,但把黄石公园80%的重要景点都参观完毕,效率很高,天气也给足了面子,很是晴朗。大家都赞叹导游的`高明!
在这些景点中,我印象最深的有三个——老忠实泉(Old Faithful Geyser)、西大拇指(West thumb和许许多多的热温泉。
老忠实泉大约相隔九十分钟就喷发一次。可以说是以水的形式上演的火山喷发。其实很久以前,老忠实泉六十分钟左右就喷发一次,但是由于地壳的变化,如今相隔九十三分钟才喷发一次。虽然说我们看的时候,老忠实泉的喷发高度也不是非常高,至少离六十米还差一点。但是,老忠实泉真的因其名而得其性格,多少年来,它依然忠实,按时喷发,向世人展示了它的性格,或说是它的品质。也许它现在老了吧,但是,年轻时那远大的梦想依然在所有人心中铭记。
西大拇指是黄石湖加上雪山组成的一幅壮丽的山水画。天气还很冷,水面上的冰还没有化。只有边上的一点水孩子们出来透透气。我觉得可以用长白湖间接的比喻西大拇指。但是,西大拇指的湖水很静、很净,也比长白湖更加宽广。而且,在黄石湖边,还有许多小温泉,冒着热腾腾的热气,给人一种和谐的如梦如幻般的美感。在长白湖和西大拇指间,真的难分伯仲,你很难找到一个合适的标准区分两者谁更美丽。
温泉也是黄石公园的一大亮点。许许多多或大或小的温泉冒着汩汩的热气,流露着一股硫磺的味道,有些温泉甚至是五彩缤纷的,在夕阳下显得那样光彩,那样明亮。第一天的黄石游,在夕阳和小雨的交接中结束了。这一天,我们收获了不少快乐,不过收获的更多的,是阳光!
1。 叙述的人称
英语的记叙文一般是以第一或第三人称的角度来叙述的。用第一称表示的是由叙述者亲眼所见、亲耳所闻的经历。它的优点在于能把故事的情节通过“我”来传达给读者,使人到真实可信,如身临其境。如:
The other day, I was driving along the street。 Suddenly, a car lost its control and ran directly towards me fast。 I was so frightened that I quickly turned to the left side。 But it was too late。 The car hit my bike and I fell off it。
用第三人称叙述,优点在于叙述者不受“我”活动范围以内的人和事物的限制,而是通过作者与读者之外的第三者,直接把故事中的情节展现在读者面前,文章的客观性很强。如:
Little Tom was going to school with an umbrella, for it was raining hard。 On the way, he saw an old woman walking in the rain with nothing to cover。 Tom went up to the old woman and wanted to share the umbrella with her, but he was too short。 What could he do? Then he had a good idea。
2。 动词的时态
在记叙文中,记和叙都离不开动词。所以动词出现率最高,且富于变化。记叙文中用得最多的是动词的过去的',这是英语记叙文区别于汉语记叙文的关键之处。英语写作的优美之处就在于这些动词时态的变化,正是这一点才使得所记、所叙有鲜活的动态感、鲜明的层次感和立体感。
3。 叙述的顺序
记叙一件事要有一定的顺序。无论是顺叙、倒叙、插叙还是补叙,都要让读者能弄清事情的来龙去脉。顺叙最容易操作,较容易给读者提供有关事情的空间和时间线索。但这种方法也容易使文章显得平铺直叙,读起来平淡乏味。倒叙、插叙、补叙等叙述方法能有效地提高文章的结构效果,让所叙之事跌宕起伏,使读者在阅读时思维产生较大的跳跃,从而为文章所吸引,深入其中。但这些方法如果使用不当,则容易弄巧成拙,使文章结构散乱,头绪不清,让读者不知所云。
4。 叙述的过渡
过渡在上下文中起着承上启下、融会贯通的作用。过渡往往用在地点转移或时间、事件转换以及由概括说明到具体叙述时。如:
In my summer holidays, I did a lot of things。 Apart form doing my homework, reading an English novel, watching TV and doing some housework, I went on a trip to Qingdao。 It is really a beautiful city。 There are many places of interest to see。 But what impressed me most was the sunrise。
The next morning I got up early。 I was very happy because it was a fine day。 By the time I got to the beach, the clouds on the horizon were turning red。 In a little while, a small part of the sun was gradually appearing。 The sun was very red, not shining。 It rose slowly。 At last it broke through the red clouds and jumped above the sea, just like a deep-red ball。 At the same time the clouds and the sea water became red and bright。
What a moving and unforgettable scene!
5。 叙述与对话
引用故事情节中主要人物的对话是记叙文提高表现力的一种好方法。适当地用直接引语代替间接的主观叙述,可以客观生动地反映人物的性格、品质和心理状态,使记叙生动、有趣,使文章内容更加充实、具体。试比较下面两段的叙述效果:
I was in the kitchen, and I was cooking something。 Suddenly I heard a loud noise from the front。 I thought maybe someone was knocking the door。 I asked who it was but I heard no reply。 After a while I saw my cat running across the parlor。 I realized it was the cat。 I felt released。
这本来应是一段故事性很强的文字,但经作者这么一写,就不那么吸引人了。原因是文中用的都是叙述模式,没有人物语言,把“悬念”给冲淡了。可作如下调整:
I was in the kitchen cooking something。 "Crash!" a loud noise came from the front。 Thinking someone was knocking at the door, I asked, "Who?" No reply。 After a while, I saw my cat running across the parlor。 "It's you。" I said, quite released。
导入:
第1段:Some people hold the opinion that A is superior to B in many ways. Others, however, argue that B is much better. Personally, I would prefer A because I think A has more advantages.
正文:
第2段:There are many reasons why I prefer A. The main reason is that ... Another reason is that...(赞同A的原因
第3段: Of course, B also has advantages to some extent... (列出1~2个B的优势
结论:
第4段: But if all these factors are considered, A is much better than B. From what has been discussed above, we may finally draw the conclusion that ...(得出结论 オ
