As a lucky student, I attended the 1998 NESCMSS held in the beautiful seaside city of Yantai from July 25 to 30, which was sponsored by the English Coaching Paper Office. Over 100 students all over the country and 30 English teaching experts from home and abroad took part in the activity. All the camperswere required to speak English. During the four days, a series of English activities were held including the Second National English Debate for Middle School Students and the Third National English Speech Competition for Middle School Students. We also visited some places of interest. A colourful English evening was held on July 29. The camp provided us with a valuable opportunity to speak English, make friends and exchange learning experience. I found my English much improved at the end of the camp. Never in my life shall I forget the impressive days in Yantai.

第二篇：如何写好高考英语说明文 高中英语作文资料

如何写好高考英语说明文

一、文体特点

说明文是指以说明为主要表达方式，来说明事物的情况、特征或道理的文体。其特点在于说明性、知识性和实用性。

二、写作技巧

写说明文时要注意以下几点：

1. 要仔细观察，抓住事物的特征。说明事物，不仅要抓住其外部形态特征，更重要的是要抓住事物的本质特征，因为本质特征是区别于其他事物的标志。

2. 安排好合理的说明顺序。对于实体事物的建造过程、产品的生产过程、事物的演变过程等往往按时间顺序来说明；对于实体事物的形状、构造应按空间顺序来说明；要介绍事物的性质、种类、功能和阐述事物的含义、原理、特点等应按逻辑顺序来说明。

3. 要灵活地采用不同的说明方法，如定义说明、注释说明、举例说明、分类说明、比较说明、引用说明、比喻说明、描述说明、数字说明和图表说明等。

4. 要注意语言准确，简洁平实，做到表达清晰、条理清楚、层次分明，具有严格的科学性。

5. 写说明文时通常采用一般现在时态，用于强调客观事实。
