第一，注意日記的格式：一般是左上角寫當天的日期，右上角寫當天的天氣情況(cloudy/ clear/ windy/ rainy/ fine/ snowy…)。日期通常采用兩種寫法：一種是按“月、日、年”順序；另一種是按“日、月、年”的順序。注意要在年份之前有一個逗號，而且月份通�？捎每s寫詞（如：Jan., Feb., Mar.等）。如果需要寫星期，可將其寫在日期的前面或后面。如：Monday, May15th, 2008或May15th, 2008, Monday
第二，抓準日記的時態(tài)：日記記敘的時間通常是在當天的下午或晚上，因此所用的時態(tài)多為過去時態(tài)。但應(yīng)靈活掌握，如果日記敘述天氣、描寫景色或為了描寫生動，也可用現(xiàn)在時。
第三，日記一般按事情發(fā)生的先后順序記述，所以常需借助一些表示先后順序的詞語，如at first, then, later on, afterwards, finally, at last等。一定要注意句與句、段與段之間的連接和過渡，適當使用一些過渡詞語使其連接緊湊、過渡自然。
第四，確立日記的中心要點，盡量突出主題，可以通過對某個細節(jié)、某個側(cè)面的描寫來突出主題，千萬不要寫成一個流水帳。

This morning our teacher told us something about the Hope Project in class. She said, “Now in the countryside many children still can’t go to school because of poverty. Can you offer them assistance？”
After school, I went directly home. When I entered my room, I saw the little box in which I kept my pocket money. Though I wanted to buy a pocket recorded, I decided to sand my money to the children who are eager to go to school. So I began to write a letter to them at once. After finishing it, I went to the post office and posted all my pocket money, which will make a difference to some children.
I felt very happy today because I’ve done a food deed.

Thirty-eight years ago, the late Chairman Mao called on us to learn from Lei Feng. To mark the occasion, we organized an activity at a nearby bus station today.
At 8 o’clock in the morning, we arrived at the 712 bus station, where we were warmly welcomed by the drivers and conductors. Then we broke up into several groups. Some of us taught some drivers and conductors English, while others cleaned the buses. Still others directed traffic at the crossroads near the bus station and helped the elderly cross the street.
Staff members of the bus station and our classmates then took part in a general knowledge quiz on the Olympic Games in the afternoon, which was great fun for both sides. Around four o’clock, we said goodbye to one another, and left very happy on the way home.
Today’s activity has taught us the new meaning of the spirit of Lei Feng : Sharing with others what you have--- your time, energy, or knowledge--- makes you feel warm in your heart. It has truly made a difference in how I feel about myself.
