It s hard for me to prepare the form of a compositionand organize sentences. Could you tell me how to deal with thisproblem? I would reallyappreciate if you offe
38、r me some good methods. Best wishes, Cindy Hi Cindy, A composition is really a story and any story is toldto an audience. There is a form for this and it is in three parts. First, tellthem(the audience) what you are going to tell them. Then tell them, and finallytell them what you told them. Parts o
39、ne and three are short and most of theinformation is in part two. It works like this. Lets say you are asked to write a 200-wordcomposition about your visit to the Great Wall. You would begin with an openingsentence or two saying something like “The Great Wall of China is a national landmark that is
40、 famous around the world. I visited it last summer There s a saying from Spiderman: Withgreat power comes great responsibility( ). and I wantto tell you about it.” That uses about 25 words to tell them what you are goingto tell them. The second part would be about 150 words and wouldcontain informat
41、ion about the Great Wall such as how long it is, when it wasbuilt, who built it and why, the fact that it is one of the seven wonders ofthe world and you would talk about how you felt and what you thought when youvisited this national treasure. This is telling them. Finally, you would use about anot
42、her 25 words to saysomething like “That was my first visit to the Great Wall and it was a very emotional experience to actually touchsomething so old and famous. 每个中国人至少参观长城一次.Iplan to go back whenever I can.” Here, you are telling them what you told themin the story and wrapping it all up into a ne
43、at package. This formula(惯例)works for both compositions and speeches and I thinkyou will find it helps to organize your thoughts. I hope its helpful.
