Sample writing
I think it’s a good idea to spend time with your family on your birthday. My birthday is on the 16th March. I usually go to my favourite local restaurant to celebrate it. I do this because I like to sit around a big table with my family and enjoy the food together. But this year, I want to do something meaningful on my birthday. I want to save up some money and donate it to a library. The library can use the money to buy books for children. It will be a nice way to help others and make my birthday even more special.

I like taking photos because they help me remember fun times with my family.
我喜欢拍照,因为照片能帮我记住和家人在一起的欢乐时光。
核心结构:这是一个原因状语从句,主句是“I like taking photos”(我喜欢拍照),由“because”引导原因从句“they help me remember fun time with my family”(因为它们能帮我记住和家人的欢乐时光)。
关键短语:“taking photos”:动名词短语作宾语,意为“拍照”(“take photos”的动名词形式,用于“like”后表示习惯性喜好);
“help sb. do sth.”:固定搭配,意为“帮助某人做某事;
“fun times with my family”:意为“和家人在一起的欢乐时光”,“with my family”作后置定语修饰“fun times”。
Language points
I’d like to watch it grow with me.
我想看着它和我一起成长。
核心结构:“I'd like to”是“I would like to”的缩写,意为“我想要……”,后接动词原形,表达意愿。
关键用法:
“watch sb./sth. do sth.”:固定搭配,意为“观看某人/某物做某事”(此处“grow”用原形,强调看到动作的全过程);
“with me”:介词短语作伴随状语,意为“和我一起”。
Language points
It’s a great idea to plant a tree for your birthday.
生日时种一棵树是个很棒的主意。
核心结构:这是典型的 “It's + 名词/形容词 + to do sth.” 句型,其中“It”是形式主语,真正的主语是后面的不定式短语“to plant a tree for your birthday”(生日时种一棵树),用形式主语是为了避免句子头重脚轻。
关键短语:
“plant a tree”:意为“种一棵树”;
“for your birthday”:介词短语作目的/时间状语,意为“为了你的生日/在你生日时”。
Language points
I usually have a party with my friends to celebrate.
我通常会和朋友举办派对来庆祝。
核心结构:主句为“I usually have a party with my friends to celebrate”,“usually”是频度副词,意为“通常”,表示习惯性动作。
关键用法:
“have a party”:固定短语,意为“举办派对”;
“with my friends”:介词短语作伴随状语,意为“和朋友们一起”;
“to celebrate”:不定式短语作目的状语,说明举办派对的目的是“庆祝”。
Language points
I also want to do something different.
我也想做一些不一样的事。
核心结构:主句为“I also want to do something different”,“also”是副词,意为“也”,用于句中(实义动词前);“want to do sth.”是固定搭配,意为“想要做某事”。
关键用法:
“something different”:形容词“different”修饰不定代词“something”,需后置(不定代词的修饰语一律后置),意为“不一样的事”;
“want to do”:后接动词原形,表达“想要做……”的意愿。
