一次不愉快的经历
【内容提示】
你是一名女生。在你12岁时发生过一件不愉快的事情,请你把它按下列要点写成一篇短文:
①那是一个周末。妈妈给了你两张电影票让你独自去看电影;一张你自己用,把另一张卖掉,票价是两角。(因为你妈妈忙于家务,顾不上去。)
②你匆匆忙忙到了电影院。你把票拿在手上,寻找买票人。一个长得英俊的年轻小伙子走上前来,面带微笑要买你的票。
③问过价钱后,他掏邮一张10元的钱让你找,你不知所措。他说让你等等,他去电影院商店换钱。你左等右等不见他来,走过去一看,他进了男厕所。这时你意识到他骗了你。

【写法指要】
1)本文是一篇叙述过去某时发生的一件事的文章,所以我们把它称为过去记叙文(past narration)。文章通过叙事和对话,把人物的活动描写得活灵活现,我们好像在看一段电影剪辑。
2)文中有不少体现人物性格的好的表达,如“in a grat hurry”,“with a big smil”,“That's grat. Say, how much?”,“without much thinking”,“without knowing what to do”,“H had savd twnty fn, but lost his honour.”
