Answer 1

How Cao Chong Had the Elephant Weighed
Cao Cao was very glad to have received an elephant as a present. He wanted to know how heavy the elephant was. But there was no scale (秤) big enough to weigh such a huge creature.
One day. Cao Chong said to his father, “I’ve found a way to weigh the elephant.Cao Chong asked a man lo lead the elephant onto a boat. When the boat slopped sinking， the man draw a line along on the boat side. After the elephant was led away, Cao Chong had some men put stones into the boat until the water reached the line.
Cao Chong asked the men to weigh each stone from the boat and put down the number.“Add up all the numbers and we will know the weight of the elephant.”Cao Chong said to his father ④with kind of pride. (83 words)

試題分析：動筆前首先要認真審題，根據(jù)提示可知本文是要求講述“曹沖稱象”的故事，所以對于我們大部分學(xué)生來說，組織材料較為容易。如果對于這個故事熟悉的話，按照原文翻譯過來也可。但是寫作中也要注意一下幾點問題。1.首先要明確被問本文應(yīng)該寫成記述文的形式，因此就要按照開頭，經(jīng)過和結(jié)尾的三段式結(jié)構(gòu)來寫。2.由于這是介紹過去發(fā)生的故事，所以本文主要時態(tài)就是一本過去時態(tài)，人稱以第三人稱為主。
【亮點說明】這篇短文使用了大量的固定句式和短語，為文章增色不少。如:be glad to很高興做某事；enough to足夠做某事；add up加起來等。學(xué)習(xí)中注意總結(jié),牢記一些固定句式及短語,寫作時就可以適當(dāng)引用, 讓文章更出彩。
