4.日记：

日记是用来记叙事件或谈感受的以记叙文或简单议论文为体裁的一种书面表达。包括日期（年、月、日），位置在左上角。天气状况在右上角。有时可另起一行附小标题，也可不要。特别注意日记叙事多用过去时态，但为了生动，一些议论或景色、天气的描写及对话引语，也可以用现在时态。日记可分为记事、描写及抒情等，通常用第一人称来写。日记一般按事情发生的先后顺序记述，所以有时需要借助一些表示先后顺序的词语。如：at first, then, later on, afterwards, soon, finally, at last等。一些有关天气的英文表达： Fine (晴), Very fine (晴朗), Rainy (雨), Cloudy (阴), Snowy (雪), Windy (风), Very hot (热), Pretty warm (相当暖和), Shower (阵雨), Thundering (雷雨), Dense fog (浓雾), A little rain, later cloudy (小雨转多云).
