英語課中，Jason老師經常會拿出一些圖片給大家描述，口語課上、寫作課上都會有這樣的環節。圖片可以引發大家思考，發揮想象力，是口語課和寫作課上必備的工具?？墒侨绾蚊枋鲆粡垐D片呢？很多同學說了一堆，信息是片面的也是凌亂的。今天Jason老師帶大家一起描述一張圖片。
你會如何描述這張圖片呢？
想象下你想說什么，如果對方看不見這張圖，你準備從哪里開始描述？如何讓對方的腦海里浮現出同樣的畫面？
描述一張圖片
第一步：你想要表達什么？不確定？沒關系，利用
Who … ? Where … ? What … ? When … ? Why … ? Which … ? How … ?來設定幾個問題
這些問題的答案會提供給你思路
QuestionAnswer
Who are the people in the picture?… a girl / a waiter
Where are they?… outside dining /in a restaurant/ Beijing, China
What are they doing?… She is sitting at a table. She is smiling. The waiter is clearing dishes.
When was the picture taken?… on a warm day , April (she is wearing summer clothes)
Why …is she in this restaurant?… on holiday.
How …would you describe the girl/the waiter?would you describe the setting (location)?… She: beautiful/stunning, gorgeous, young, relaxed, in her 20’s… He: smartly-dressed… lovely, delightful, pleasant, quaint, charming
這些問題中有一些很重要，他們可以幫助我們確定足夠的信息。
第二步：寫出一些句子
The picture is of a stunning girl in her twenties and a smartly-dressed waiter.
They are in a delightful restaurant.
The restaurant is in Beijing, China.
She is smiling at the camera.
He is clearing dishes.
It is a warm day. She is on holiday.
第三步：做些改進。把圖片中的信息和句子連接起來。如果所有的句子都是簡單句，行文就像小孩子一樣，但是不是一定要把所有的句子都連接起來。有時，簡單句更直接，更完美。你需要讓讀者理解你的句子。你的行文應該是簡單句和復雜句并存的。你可以使用并列連詞和（或者）從屬連詞來把句子連接起來。至少有一種連接方式吧？大家可以參考之前Jason老師的文章《學英語 如何寫好一個句子》
The picture is of a stunning girl in her twentieswhois in a charming restaurant (whichis) in Beijing, China.
It’s a warm Spring dayandshe is on holiday.
Whilea smartly-dressed waiter clears the table, she smiles sweetly at the camera.
或者:
In the picture, a gorgeous girl in her twenties is dining in a quaint restaurant in Beijing, China.
這是一個簡單句，只有一個主語和一個動詞。
She is on holiday, it’s a warm day in April,andshe is smiling happily at the camerawhilea smartly-dressed waiter clears the table.
第四步：形成段落
Example #1
The picture is of a stunning girl in her twentieswhois in a charming restaurant in Beijing, China. It’s a warm Spring dayandshe is on holiday.Whilea smartly-dressed waiter clears the table, she smiles sweetly at the camera.
Example #2
In the picture, a gorgeous girl in her twenties is dining at a quaint restaurant in Beijing, China. She is on holiday, it’s a warm Spring day,andshe is smiling happily at the camerawhilea smartly-dressed waiter clears the table.
現在該你了，參考這4步描述一張圖片，Jason老師經常讓學生描述的圖片，你可以從中選擇一張或者全部練一遍。用上面的流程，祝寫作愉快！
