写作技巧(Tips)
你曾经写过信给妈妈吗？可能我们平常跟妈妈生活在一起，觉得写信没有什么必要，但其实有很多事情也许我们想让妈妈知道，但是又不好意思直接开口。那么就写信吧。一开始就写出要对妈妈说的事情哦。
我们第一段的建议开头句就是：Today I’m going to tell you something really special.今天我要跟你说一件非常特别的事情。
因为是写信，所以不用不好意思哦。把平常心中对妈妈的一些感受给表达出来吧。
我们第二段的建议开头句就是：I also want to tell you one thing, I love you so much.我还想告诉你一件事情，我真的很爱你。
平常妈妈真的对我们照顾地无微不至，最后我们就写出报答妈妈的方法。妈妈看了，一定会很高兴。
我们第三段的建议开头句就是：I made up my mind that I will study harder and help you to clean the house.我已经下定决心要更努力地用功读书，并且帮你把家里整理干净

我还想告诉你一件事情，我真的很爱你。I also want to tell you one thing, I love you so much.虽然每次你念我不够用功的时候，我都会顶嘴。I usually talk back to you when you say that I don’t study hard enough.但事实上，我只是想要你再多称赞我一点。But in fact I just want you to praise me more.我一定会尽我所能得到好成绩，并且受到老师的赞扬。I will try my best to get good grades and get praise from my teacher.所以不要再因为我的成绩而感到沮丧了，好吗？So don’t feel frustrated about my grades, OK?
