作文指导
记叙文(例：记人)
【体裁导航】
在高考写作中，要求直接对人物描述的文章不是很多，但写人的记叙文却是同学们必须掌握的。《普通高中英语课程标准(实验)》对记叙文的写作作了明确要求，所以，记叙文的写作，应引起同学们的重视。
记叙文的写作，一般应考虑六个要素：时间、地点、人物、事件的起因、经过和结果。遇到以图表的形式提供的材料时，注意要点应齐全。
写记叙文时，由于多是叙述过去发生的动作，所以，叙述中常用过去时态，当然有时也会出现一般现在时或其他时态，尤其是在直接引语里。
写人、记事、描述地点或刻画场景，最常用的文体可能就是记叙文了。因而，平时遇到一些好句子，就应当多记。例如：
Joan is a pretty gentle lady in her early twenties.
My sister is a boyish girl.She has short and straight hair like a boy’s.
He is a handsome young man with bright eyes and broad shoulders.
以上例句都是用于描述人的好句子，应首先学会灵活套用。长此以往，潜移默化，同学们的表达自会在不知不觉中达到“即便信手拈来，却也恰到好处”的境界。
写人的记叙文当然离不开记事，但两者的侧重点有所不同。记人者，以人为主导，所写的事都是为衬托人物服务的，所以，记述时，外貌的描写、性格的刻画等等，都要服务于人物，不可喧宾夺主、本末倒置。

One possible version：
Thomas Edison
Born in America, Thomas Edison was a great scientist and inventor.He was once thought to be a boy who was not worth educating.In fact, he was a man full of imagination.
I admire Edison a lot because of his great contribution to the world.He had more than 1,000 inventions.
In his life time, he was always eager to know how things worked, which helped him to earn the nickname “the Wizard of Melo Park”．He was also so diligent that he worked day and night. And this explained why he had so many great inventions.
What impresses me most is his famous saying, “Genius is one percent inspiration and ninetynine percent perspiration.” Probably I cannot be an Edison myself, but I can be a hardworking learner.From him, I realize the secret to success is not when or where you were born, but what you are doing and how you do it in your life.
