高考临近，有关2012年高考英语作文的命题预测很多，参考命题预测可在一定程度上帮助考生把握复习的整体方向，有的放矢。历年高考作文题的功能，主要表现在两个方面，一个是评价功能，第二个是导向功能。高分网高考频道小编支招考生，考生可参考当地最近五年的高考作文题目，结合社会热点，从中分析规律，得出2012高考英语作文大的命题方向。

1、参考历年真题，总结规律。一般来说，高考英语作文体裁相对稳定，考生可参考当地最近五年的高考作文题目，从中分析规律，得出大的命题方向。如陕西对高考英语作文这一板块的考察，从新课改后重点突出的是学生对日常文体的应用，从09年至11年分别以电子邮件或写回信的方式让学生表达出对老师的真挚友谊、与家长沟通学习压力、或解决一些基本的学习难点等。因此我们不难看出，高考对学生作文的考察，会从学生的生活、学习、交友、家庭、社会活动等高中生较熟悉的层面，结合应用文的常见考察点：申请类、投诉类、感谢类、祝贺类等进行综合考察。

2、把对语言基础的应用作为考前强化重点。近年来的高考作文都非常注重考查学生的语言综合运用能力，根据《普通高中英语课程标准》对写作技能目标的要求，英语作文写作须“能根据所读文章进行转述或写摘要;能根据用文字及图表提供的信息写短文或报告;能写出语意连贯且结构完整的短文，叙述事情或表达观点和态度;能在写作中做到问题规范、语句通顺。”2012年高考英语作文的命题趋势，仍将会把学生对语言基础的应用作为首要考察点。

3、关注热点话题。纵观近几年的高考作文，可以发现，题材始终贴近社会、贴近现代生活，是中学生所熟知的热点话题。

除了把握好命题原则，掌握高考英语作文写作技巧更不可少：

1、审题：审题是做到切题的第一步。所谓审题就是要看清题意，确定文章的中心思想、主题，并围绕中心思想组织材料。

2、进行构思，列出简单的提纲，打造文章之骨架：审好题、立好意后，就要写提纲，打造文章的骨架。文章布局要做好几件事：安排好层次段落，铺设好过渡，处理好开头和结尾。

3、扩展成文：根据字数多少扩展成篇。扩展的内容一定要紧扣主题，千万不要写那些与主题不相关的内容。展开的方式包括：顺序法、举例法、比较法、对比法、说明法、因果法、推导法、归纳法和下定义等。可以根据需要任选一种或几种方式。

What is optimism? Optimism is when you meet with difficulties, you will have the courage to face it. What is pessimistic? Pessimism is when you meet problems, you cant challenge head-on, will only like little puss-head, tightly in there, says you are a very timid person.

If you live with optimism, you will have a lot of friends, also can have good luck comes upon you. As long as with an optimistic attitude to face life, your life will step by step to rise again, the future will certainly be like big stars send out light. As I am optimistic person, so there are a lot of good friends to accompany me around.

Be careful! Some students always with pessimistic mood in the face of all things, as long as they unwilling or in a bad mood, drop by drop tears, really upset people. Facing the challenges of life, if you are a optimistic person, what would you do? If you are a pessimist, how would you solve? Because I am a optimistic person, I would say, "ok! You can do better next time." But if I am a pessimistic person, may be a is a sign of weakness.

I think optimism and pessimism is a picture of life on paper, and we can help you with all the colors of the colorful life in different patterns. As long as have an optimistic attitude, can let me have a happy mood, brave to face all kinds of difficulties.

什么是乐观呢?乐观就是当你遇到困难，你会勇于面对。那什么是悲观呢?悲观是当你遇到问题，你不会迎头挑战，只会像缩头乌龟一样，紧紧的缩在那里，表示你是一个很胆小的人。

如果你以乐观的态度过生活，你会有很多朋友，也会有好运降临在你身上。只要以乐观的态度面对生活，你的人生就会一步又一步的往上升，未来肯定会像大明星一样散发光芒。像我就是乐观的人，所以身边有许多好朋友陪伴我。

小心了!有些同学总以悲观的心情面对所有事物，他们只要不甘心或心情不好，都一滴一滴地流下眼泪，真是让人懊恼。面临人生的各种挑战，如果你是乐观的人，你会怎么做?如果你是悲观的人，你会怎么解决?因为我是乐观的人，我会说:“没关系!下次可以做得更好。”但如果我是悲观的人，可能会一 蹶不振。

我觉得乐观和悲观是生活上的图画纸，我们可以用五彩缤纷的色彩帮自己的人生画上不同的图案。只要拥有乐观的态度，就能让我有一份快乐的心情，勇敢去面对各种难关。

Since the childhood, I would cultivate the good habit of reading. The good habits can help me to increase knowledge, make I am not a tunnel vision.

The so-called "reading is the key to knowledge". While reading, if you have any new words, I will be looking for "teacher" dont talk to me to solve problem, so I know the increasingly rich vocabulary.

Old saying: a scholar need not leave his home to know whats going on in the world. In spare time, I also read newspapers. Reading newspapers can not only let me know what happened at home and abroad, can also be vigilant about everything around them. Newspaper has a "student is in the heavens and the earth" to let the students write. I can earn money not only can read the article written by other students, so as to improve their writing ability, so why not?

In addition, I also read some illustrated books. These books can bring me entertainment, can let me temporarily put the heavy homework and all troubles were thrown to the outside of the cloud nine. It can make me happy, easily absorb knowledge.

Because I have the habit of reading, parents often buy all kinds of books for me. Whenever my birthday, because friends know my hobbies, so receive gifts, for the most part, are books. Over time, my collection of books, in the study almost doesnt even have the location of the station! The family called my study "little library".

The book was my companion! My friends, let us to cultivate the good habit of reading. It will specific will benefit you.

从小，我就培养了阅读的好习惯。这好习惯能帮助我增加知识，使我不至于成为井底之蛙。

所谓“阅读就是开启知识宝库的钥匙”。在阅读时，要是遇到任何的生字新词，我便会找“不说话的老师”为我解决难题，所以我认识的词汇日益丰富。

俗语说:秀才不出门，能知天下事。在空闲时，我也会阅读报章。阅读报章不但能让我知道国内外所发生的事，也能对周遭的事情提高警惕。报章里头设有’’学生天地’’让学生们投稿。我不但能从中赚取稿费也能阅读其他学生所写的文章，从而提高自己的写作能力，何乐而不为呢?

此外，我也会阅读一些图文并茂的图书。这些图书能带给我娱乐，能让我暂时把繁重的功课及一切烦恼都被抛到九霄云外。它的却能让我快乐地，轻松地吸取知识。

由于我有阅读的习惯，因此父母常买各式各样的书籍给我。每当我生日时，由于朋友都知道我的爱好，所以收到的礼物绝大部分都是书籍。久而久之，我的藏书汗牛充栋，书房里几乎连站的位置都没有了!家人都称我的书房为“小小图书馆”。

书本真是我的良伴!朋友们，且让我们一去培养阅读的好习惯吧!它肯特定会使你受益无穷。

写作包括两部分，一是要求在35分钟内写一篇150字左右的短文，二是要求在10分钟内写一个50--60字的便条。这两部分均为命题作文，作文内容与大学生的日常生活、学习都密切相关，另外也有社会热点问题，比如环保、旅游、健身等，题目理解起来都比较容易。

短文写作部分文体为议论文，一般采用三段式的结构，第一段为论点，第二段为论据，第三段为结论。最高要求为文章内容切题，思想表达清楚，论据充分，论证严密，基本无语言错误。要想写好一篇文章，应该注意一下写作步骤：

1.审题：作文评分的第一个要求就是内容切题，因此审题特别关键。专业四级作文都是命题作文，而且多有中文提示或提纲，所以你首先应了解命题的基本要求，理解题目的真正意图，然后确定提纲中的关键词及各要点间的逻辑，整理自己的思路，对自己所想到的内容进行组织和全面安排。尤其对要讨论的问题，该涉及的内容，所需的事实、例证、阐述、说明和总结等，在头脑中形成一个整体的构思。

2.组织段落：构思好之后，根据构思的提纲，运用选好的材料，恰当地运用连词，合理安排段落，使文章条理清楚、内容连贯。段落的组织主要是通过扩展句对主题句的支持或说明来进行的。各段的主题句在审题构思时就应基本形成，主题句确定下来，接着就是通过一系列的扩展句，来说明、论证或阐述主题句的思想。常见的段落展开方法有列举、举例、比较和对比、因果、叙述、归类、下定义等，考试时应灵活运用。

3.修改：也就是说要删除与主题不相干的内容，检查句子时态、语态等。特别应注意单词的正确拼写；字母大小写和标点符号；数的一致性（包括主语与谓语以及名词与其限定语的单复数一致性）；指代关系（包括指代的一致性和代词的选用）；动词形式（时态、语态、语气）等方面。

关于考试过程中短文写作的时间分配问题。我们知道，短文写作的时间为35分钟, 要力争写完写好, 这就要求考生做到有条不紊，忙而不乱，充分发挥自己应有的水平。建议按照如下的方案分配时间: 审题1～2分钟；组织素材, 细节和关键词: 4～5分钟；起草: 20～25分钟；修改定稿: 4～5分钟。

最后要说明的是，从某种意义上来说，专业四级考试作文有其固定的写作格式、结构，而对于固定的题型，有固定不变的表达法。因此，大家有理由相信只要训练方法得当，搞好写作是不难的。大家不妨试试多背范文和常用句型，包括各类型作文的开头、结尾句、中间展开、过渡句，以及比较、图表说明等的常用句型和表达法，然后自己多动笔写一写，只要按这样的方法进行练习，相信在一定时间内就可以在写作上取得满意的分数。因为是三段式作文，写作的时候一定注意第一段提出的论点要简洁明了，开门见山；第二段的论据要能充分说明论点，论证条理清楚；第三段的结论要水到渠成，切忌草率，严谨完整的结尾是取得高分的保证。

便条写作最主要的是注意格式正确，交待清楚，比如请柬、贺信、道歉函等，要注意称呼、正文、签名等的格式，一定要把相关的时间、地点、原因及主要事件内容交待清楚。

OnCredit Card

At present, a wide ofcredit cards issued by major banks and shopping malls are thriving in collegesand universities across the nation, with a multitude of college students makingup a growing population of card holders. Indeed, one out of five students isestimated to be in possession of at least one credit card, and the figure isexpected to be on the steady , thelatest data published by Yangtze Evening Post suggests。

Like anything prior tothe emergence of this small piece of plastic, the increasing popularity ofcredit card on campus has both bright and dark sides. On the one hand, youngadults in college, free from the trouble of pocketing a considerable sum ofcash, could enjoy the convenience of credit cards and purchase expensive goodsby installments. On the other hand, however, the irresponsible and excessiveuse of the cards by these youngsters, the majority of whom are fresh out ofmiddle school incapable of budgeting their money, can make them heavily in debtwhich will take them years to pay off。

On my personal level,while enjoying a host of conveniences the credit card may bring, we couldntafford to ignore a fact: in most cases,parents are our sole financial sources.Instead of spending without anyrestrict, we are supposed to put studies on the top of our agenda and moveourselves beyond heavy dependence upon our parents。

英语四级考试目的是推动大学英语教学大纲的贯彻执行，对大学生的英语能力进行客观、准确的测量，为提高我国大学英语课程的教学质量服务。下面是小编为大家带来的基础薄弱如何进行英语四级写作训练的知识，欢迎阅读。

英语四级写作备考可分为四大步骤：

一、 背诵：

首先认真研究历年四级写作真题，重点研究2001年6月—2005年12月的11次真题，分析近年来四级写作的出题规律和考试重点，从语言、结构、 内容三大层面，认真研读经典写作真题范文：语言方面学习范文中的精彩词汇、词组、句型；结构方面学习范文的框架结构、内在逻辑、关联词、同义替换和代词替换；内容方面学习范文的论点、论据和论证。同时背诵精彩写作范文，要求滚瓜烂熟、脱口而出、多多益善，扎扎实实提高自己的写作实力。历年英语四级六级真题 >>

二、默写：

背诵熟练之后默写下来，仔细对照原文，会发现你默写的文章与原文有一些语法、拼写、标点的区别，这些区别就是你的写作弱点，学习关键在于针锋突破，不要全面出击。这些弱点正是你在考试中扣分的原因所在，把这些弱点意义克服，分数自然就会提高。

三、 中译英：

首先将写作真题范文译为中文，或参考范文的正确译文，然后进行中译英的工作，根据自己的理解把中文译为英文，最后对照英文原文，你会发现你的译文与原文存在较大的差别，这些差别正是你写作低分的症结所在。同样的一个中文句子，仔细对比一下你使用了哪些词汇、词组和句型，原文使用了哪些，这样你的写作水平才会逐渐提高。

四、 写作：

进行完上述工作之后，在考前必须进行写作的工作，只有动笔写作，才会发现自己的问题。可以写5—10篇真题或模拟题，模仿自己曾经背诵过的精彩词汇、词组、句型、框架和范文，写出一篇新的文章。最初不要求速度，但考前一定要进行模考，半小时写出一篇120－150词的文章。写完之后仔细修改其中的语言错误，将其改的更加精彩。

英语写作基础不太好的四级考生，必须按照上述步骤严格进行；基础较好的考生学习顺序正好相反，首先写作，直接写作英语四级真题；其次中译英，在研读原文之前，进行中译英的工作，译完对比，找出差距；然后背诵；最后默写。同时可以准备自己的写作框架，应用文和论说文分别形成固定的写法，积累精彩句型。

题目： Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay based on the picture below. You should comment on the role of mobile phone in peoples communication. You are required to write at least 120 words but no more than 180 words.

参考范文: The Role of Mobile Phone in Peoples Communication

The popularity of smartphones has exerted great influence on the way people communicate, so much so that an increasing number of individuals contend that face-to-face communication is being replaced by texts and images on the mobile phone.

There are more than one angle to consider this phenomenon. On one hand, it is pleasantly acknowledged that smartphones shorten the distance between families and friends. Even people from different sides of the globe can share pictures, feelings and thoughts through various types of apps on the phone, thus building a long-distance connection. On the other hand, as the picture warns us, too much smartphone addiction interferes with peoples real-life communication. Statistics show that over 70 percent of face-to-face communication consists of facial expressions and body language, which is why people should stay away from mobile phones when they have the chance to actually talk and communicate with others.

In a word, mobile phones act as an appropriate platform where people can always stay in tough however long the distance is, but a wise man should know when to put down his phone.

96年6月份曾考过此题，今天来看，似乎更有现实意义。这是一道负面社会现象题，那么挖掘其背后根源，并找出解决方案，就成为探讨的主要方面，而提纲也正是如此。三个提纲各属其类，界限清晰，直接按提纲写三段即可。段1为提出现象，确立研究对象。提纲1翻译后仅一句话，作为一段话则显内容单薄，字数匮乏，所以需进一步发挥。不妨从例证角度扩充，举例时即可基于国内现状，也可纵观全球，显然前者更易行。可从我国西南地区的生活缺水，水价上升，以及河流干涸等细节方面铺陈。段2是原因分析，建议分析主观原因和客观原因两方面。所谓主观原因即是基于人的思想意念，心理意识，行为动机以及行为举措，比如人们节约意识的淡漠或者人们误认为淡水取之不尽等不当想法。而客观原因则是从非人角度出发，如社会发展，人口激增，甚至污染的加剧等方面出发，这些因素均使得淡水消耗的增加。当然，考场上由于时间紧迫，无法细想，可能会写出的两个全是主观类或客观类的原因，其实也无妨，只要二者不同即可，谨防虽言明两原因，但实则彼此混淆，出现逻辑不清的窘况。段3是措施分析，措施可从官方措施和民众措施两方面写起，也可加入作为现代年轻人，我该如何约束自己，从生活中小事做起节约水资源等内容。总之，在内容上考生尽可发挥想象力，纵马驰骋，原则依旧：切题者皆可。

(2)Part-time Jobs for College Students

1.目前大学校园里很多学生业余时间做兼职

2.对于大学生是否该做兼职工作，人们看法不一

3.我的看法

这是一道校园话题，在内容上即涉及现象，又涉及观点，能很好地考察到学生的综合分析能力。提纲1依旧是现象提出，看到提纲1，大家脑海里会浮现很多熟悉的场景，如校园布告栏里张贴着的兼职广告，校园论坛上也经常发布的一些兼职信息等等，这些都可反映在段1中。所以当我们第一眼看到话题或提纲时，脑海中常常会浮现出相关场景，把这些画面定格，进行详细描绘即可，即自然又切题。当然，段1也可从学生的兼职渠道以及兼职类型等方面加以发挥。总之，提纲是总领，而符合总领的任何附属内容都可写。段2是人们对此学生兼职的不同看法，一正一反。切记在表达上述两类观点时，提出其相关论据。段3是提出作者本人看法。本人看法既可选择上述任一方(只要不极端)，也可提出与上述均异的第三类观点，对于极度偏激的正反方观点则需做一番调和与勾兑(这个一般很少见)。需要提醒的是，继提出己方观点后，还应补充其他内容，如论据；也可写我的下一步做法，甚至可写我所认为的大家对此问题所应采取的对策云云。

(3)Private Cars of Today

1.目前私家车越来多了

2.私家车为人们带来的益处和问题

这道题只有两个提纲，所以建议在完成提纲要求内容之后再补充一段相关内容，可以在提纲2之后续补段3(如举措类：如何合理地限制私家车的出行以减少废气排放等等)，也可在1，2之间插入一段(如原因分析，即为何私家车越来越多)。先来看提纲1，依然是事实陈述，看到提纲1，会很容易联想到马路上川流不息的过往车辆，以及高峰期令人沮丧的堵车，那么即可将这些内容付诸笔端。再看提纲2，是私家车给人们生活带来的影响，该事实是一中性事实，则需辩证地分析其影响的两面性，一方面它带来好处，如让人们的出行变得更自由更方便，另一方面它带来坏处，如排放废气，污染环境，或造成交通堵塞等等。

1.同学们中普遍存在的压力是什么;

2.我的压力是什么;

3.我是如何成功缓解我的压力的。

Less Pressure, Better Life

Hello, boys and girls!

Pressure is a serious problem in today’s world. Students in our class are under too much pressure. Some students can’t get on well with their classmates, while others may worry about their exams.

I’m always under pressure, too. My parents want me to be the top student in class. So they send me to all kinds of training classes at weekends.

Last Monday evening, I had a talk with my mother. I told her I was not lazy. I really felt tired. I needed time to relax. My mother agreed with me at last. So I think a conversation with parents is necessary to solve the problem.

That’s all. Thank you!

Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic A Witness of a Theft Incident. You should write at least 120 words, and base your composition on the outline below:

1）描述你在公共场所目睹的一次扒窃事件

2）谴责这种不文明的现象

【思路点拨】

本题属于提纲式文字命题。提纲第1点要 求描述一次事件的经过，提纲第2点要求对事件进行评论，由此可判断本文应为记叙文。 根据所给提纲，本文应包含如下内容：交待事件背景；描述扒窃事件的经过和最后结果；谴责这种不文明 的现象，提出解决建议。

A Witness of a Theft Incident Yesterday, I witnessed a theft incident on my way home. The thief was so rampant that it left me a very deep impression. It was in the rush hour, when many people were buying tickets at the subway station. A woman took her purse out and paid for the ticket. Then she put her purse back into her bag and turned to leave, when a mid-aged man brushed past her muttering Excuse me. She didnt feel unusual and went into the station. Indeed, her purse had been stolen by that man. To our surprise, the thief seems not to be nervous at all and even began to look others up and down. Maybe he was searching for the next target. At that time some persons, including me, witnessed the process. But unfortunately, no one dared to warn that woman. This incident makes me ashamed and leaves me a deep thought. The pickpocket has posed a great threat to residents and visitors property safety. Undoubtedly, it is an urgent thing to take action to prevent pickpocket. However, it cannot depend on the police only. Instead, it needs our common efforts. We can not shut our eyes and mouths to the pickpocket any more. It should be kept in our minds that our forces are far beyond those thieves.

[不文明现象英语四级作文预测

A man was going to the house of some rich person. As he went along the road, he saw a box of good apples at the side of the road. He said, "I do not want to eat those apples; for the rich man will give me much food; he will give me very nice food to eat." Then he took the apples and threw them away into the dust.

He went on and came to a river. The river had become very big; so he could not go over it. He waited for some time; then he said, "I cannot go to the rich mans house today, for I cannot get over the river."

He began to go home. He had eaten no food that day. He began to want food. He came to the apples, and he was glad to take them out of the dust and eat them.

Do not throw good things away; you may be glad to have them at some other time.

【译文】

一个人正朝着一个富人的房子走去，当他沿着路走时，在路的一边他发现一箱好苹果，他说：“我不打算吃那些苹果，因为富人会给我更多的食物，他会给我很好吃的东西。”然后他拿起苹果，一把扔到土里去。

他继续走，来到河边，河涨水了，因此，他到不了河对岸，他等了一会儿，然后他说：“今天我去不了富人家了，因为我不能渡过河。”

他开始回家，那天他没有吃东西。他就开始去找吃的，他找到苹果，很高兴地把它们从尘土中翻出来吃了。

不要把好东西扔掉，换个时候你会觉得它们大有用处。

My dream is very simple, it is also difficult - travel painter. Since I was young, I want to be a painter, but I dont want to be a painter to draw in the studio all day. I like to travel, like watching the scenery, want to see the landscape, so when I grow up I want to be a painter, travel at a place, a place, I painted all the pictures make it a memoir, to the old time will be very pleased.

Make travel painter is very simple, it is also difficult, simply because the painting can follow ones inclinationsly, difficult because require a lot of money, if the money up, everything is not so difficult. So I always think of it as a distant dream, not desire anything. I was stupid, not the topic, others taught several times I also learn cant, so I can only rely on study hard, but I am trying to learn, also can be to average. Mother is very worried about my study, I know I like painting, just give me a quote for a painting class. I will go to in order to dream, learn to draw, start is difficult, then more draw more skilled, up to now I have to calligraphy and painting a picture intermediate difficulty of feng shui and sketch. If you ask me to learn a few years of painting, painting now? I sorry to tell you: "five years, um... study on the pictures." But you dont laugh oh, Ive been coming to the end, the clever boy than I also want to learn at least four and a half years.

Remember I also cant talk at all at the age of three or four, others see I dont speak, think that Im a mute, mother heard, very afraid, teaches me to mother tongue every day. In five or six years old, I would speak, but up to now, I speak not clear, sometimes against the elder sister call I couldnt say any words clearly, so I practice every day. What does this have to do to talk with travel painter? Then you have to go listen to me carefully.

Painting at the age of five or six, I see this two word, mother didnt teach, I just say out, mother very happy, just call me a pen to draw, then, of course, I can only draw four feet birds. And so it all began.

Time flies, suddenly I have already become a big girl, but never change is I the passion for painting.

我的梦想很简单，也很困难-旅行画家。我从小就想当一名画家，但我不想成为整天在画室里画画的画家。我喜欢旅游，喜欢看风景，想把看到的风景画下来，所以长大后我想做一个旅行画家，到了一个地方，画一个地方，把我画的所有的画做成一个回忆录，到老的时候会很欣慰。

做旅行画家很简单，也很困难，简单是因为可以随心所欲地画画，困难是因为需要庞大的资金，如果资金搞定了，一切也就没有那么困难了。所以我一直都把它当做一个遥远的梦想，不会奢望什么。我很笨，不会的题，别人教了好几遍我也学不会，所以我只能靠努力学习了，可我在努力学习，成绩也只能是中等偏上。母亲很担心我的学习，知道我喜欢画画，就给我报了一个画画班。我为了梦想，就去去学画画了，先开始很难，后来越画越熟练，到现在我已经可以字画一幅中级难度的风水画和素描了。如果你问我学了几年的画，现在画什么?我会不好意思的告诉你：“五年，嗯……学上人头像了。”不过你不要笑哦，我已经到了极限了，比我聪明的孩子也要至少学四年半。

记得三四岁的时候我根本还不会说话，别人见了我不会说话，以为我是个哑巴，母亲听了，很害怕，每天都教我学母语。到了五六岁的时候，我才会说话的，可是到现在，我有时说话都不清楚，害的姐姐叫我连话都说不清楚，所以我每天都会练习说话。这说话跟旅行画家有什么关系呢?那你得听我细细道来了。

五六岁时，我看到画画这两个字，母亲没教，我自己就说出来了，母亲很高兴，就叫我用笔画画了，当然那时我只会画四脚小鸟。于是这一切就这么开始了。

时间过得很快，转眼我已经成了一个大姑娘了，但永远不变的是我对画画的那份热情。

内容包括：

1. 简要介绍造成现在学生学习压力大的原因。

2. 你认为来自于English Online调查结果的放松方式是否有效，为什么?

3.谈谈你个人自我放松的有效做法(至少三点)。

Dear fellows,

Not only adults but also we students often feel stressed because we have too much homework to do, and we are very busy studying every day, we don’t have our own time to do what we are interested in. We are very tired and sleepy all day, so we should learn to deal with it. What should we do to relax?

From the result of the survey, I think doing sports with classmates is a good way to relax. Because it’s good for our health and it can make us relaxed.

I also have three ways to relax ourselues. First, we can listen to music. Second, we can go to the movies with our parents on weekends. Don’t study at home all the weekend. Third, when we feel tired, we can think about something interesting.

I hope my suggestions can help you.Thanks!
