18.句意:上周日,我问了五个同学他们最喜欢的电视节目。classmate,同班同学,根据空前面的five可知是五个同学,用复数名词,故答案为classmates。

As for my father, he likes watching the news. He wants m know what's going on around the world. He likes sports news best because he's a sports fan. What about my mother? Soap operas are her favorite! She likes to follow the stories and find out what happens next.
That's all. Thanks!
【知识点】应用文写作
【解析】【分析】这是一篇发言稿,首先注意发言稿的正确格式。要有称呼,主题句,另外还要有结束语That's all. Thanks!。根据题目的要求介绍自己和家人喜欢看的电视节目,所以至少有三个人的喜好:自己、爸爸、妈妈。写作时注意英语的句子结构与汉语的不同,需要平时对课本上的课文要正确地理解,会仿照课文的句子写出正确的英语句子,所以注意用一般现在时,用第一人称来叙述。
【点评】短文结构分明,有主题句,有对每个家庭成员的爱好进行分述。写作中注意使用了固定短语learn from;as for;go on;find out等。短语时态正确,语句通顺,句子表达准确。
