日記：
日記是用來記敘事件或談感受的以記敘文或簡單議論文為體裁的一種書面表達。包括日期（年、月、日），位置在左上角。天氣狀況在右上角。有時可另起一行附小標題，也可不要。特別注意日記敘事多用過去時態，但為了生動，一些議論或景色、天氣的描寫及對話引語，也可以用現在時態。日記可分為記事、描寫及抒情等，通常用第一人稱來寫。日記一般按事情發生的先后順序記述，所以有時需要借助一些表示先后順序的詞語。如：at first, then, later on, afterwards, soon, finally, at last等。一些有關天氣的英文表達： Fine (晴), Very fine (晴朗), Rainy (雨), Cloudy (陰), Snowy (雪), Windy (風), Very hot (熱), Pretty warm (相當暖和), Shower (陣雨), Thundering (雷雨), Dense fog (濃霧), A little rain, later cloudy (小雨轉多云). 典型例文：August 5, 2000 Saturday FineEarly in the morning, we all set off for the beach.
