§课文原文 Passage
1Headline: Old Books, New Lives: Our School's Free Library Corner. Byline: By Wendy Cheung, 2A. What happens to a book after you have read it a hundred times? That question is the hook of this article. Last Monday, our school opened a “Free Library Corner” beside the tuck shop, and more than 300 books found new owners within an hour.
2The lead paragraph explains the news; the body gives the details. The queue started forming before eight in the morning, and some students came with their own bags. The Student Union asked everyone to donate books they no longer read. “I never thought my old storybooks could make someone else smile,” said Form 1 student Jason Lee. That quotation became the heart of the article. Teachers added dictionaries and magazines, so the shelf now holds over 500 titles.
3The union plans to restock the corner every month. From this angle, the project looks set to grow: small actions bring big smiles. A small shelf, a big idea: perhaps the best stories are the ones we pass on, and perhaps the best readers are the ones who share. Next month, the corner will welcome mystery novels and science books. Mr Chan, our vice-principal, says he hopes every classroom will soon have its own corner. Why not bring a book you have finished and give it a new life?

3逐步讲解 Steps
- Hook考点：杂志文章写作评分重视开头能否吸引读者，hook 是内容分与技巧分的双重项目。方法：以读者想知道答案的问题开场，问题必须与主题直接相关，不可为花俏而花俏。例如：范文以 What happens to a book after you have read it a hundred times? 开首，一本书读一百遍之后会怎样，读者为寻找答案自然读下去。易错处：考生常写出与内容无关的问题，或问题之后迟迟不给答案；hook 之后应尽快交代新闻要点，让悬念有着落，开场才算成功。
- Body考点：body 段考查细节的具体程度，空泛的叙述难以取得内容分，数字与时间是关键。方法：按时间或逻辑顺序展开，写清楚何时、何地、何人、何事，并配以数字。例如：范文写 The queue started forming before eight in the morning，又写 Teachers added dictionaries and magazines, so the shelf now holds over 500 titles，时间与数字并用，场面具体可信。易错处：考生常堆砌形容词而缺少数据；与其说很多书，不如写出五百本这类实数，说服力立即不同。
- End考点：结尾考查收束与呼应的能力，既要重申立意，又要给读者行动方向，是格式与立意的双重收口。方法：先回扣文章主旨，再以呼吁或邀请收结，语气积极。例如：范文以 small actions bring big smiles 点出小行动带来大意义，再以 Why not bring a book you have finished and give it a new life? 邀请读者参与捐书，呼应开头的问题。易错处：考生常草草以一句无关话收尾，或忽然引入新话题；结尾必须回应开头的 hook 与全文角度，首尾呼应才算完整。
- headline考点：headline 是杂志文章格式题的必查项目，格式与吸引力同时评分，错漏直接扣格式分。方法：设计带有反差、对比或悬念的标题，并用冒号分隔主副题。例如：范文标题 Old Books, New Lives: Our School's Free Library Corner，old 与 new 形成对比，前半制造张力，后半交代事件与地点，资讯与吸睛兼备。易错处：考生常把标题写成平淡的普通句式，例如 We opened a library corner，毫无张力；又或只有主题没有副题，缺少地点资讯，两面皆失。
- byline + lead考点：格式题要求准确放置 byline 与 lead，位置与内容同样计分，错位是最常见的失分原因。方法：byline 紧接标题之下，写 By 加姓名与班别；lead 第一段交代新闻要点，包括时间、地点、事件与数据。例如：范文写 By Wendy Cheung, 2A，随即在首段交代 more than 300 books found new owners within an hour，一小时内三百本书找到新主人，新闻要素齐全。易错处：考生常把 byline 放到文末，或 lead 段迟迟不入题；新闻要点必须在第一段出齐，这是倒金字塔结构的铁律。
- quotation考点：引述句是杂志文章的灵魂，考评常特别检查有没有直接引语以及其格式是否正确。方法：挑选能够代表文章角度的人物原话，用引号标示，并在引语后交代说话人的姓名与身份。例如：范文引述 'I never thought my old storybooks could make someone else smile,' said Form 1 student Jason Lee，引号内是原话，后面补上身份与姓名，格式完整。易错处：考生常只写转述而无直接引语，或引语之后漏写 said 加身份；引述宜有一至两句，并选情感真挚的话，文章才有人味。
- angle考点：angle（切入角度）决定全文讯息，角度模糊或中途偏离是立意分的主要失分原因，属高阶写作考点。方法：动笔前先定一句核心讯息，之后每一段都为这句话服务，无关内容果断删除。例如：范文的角度是 small actions bring big smiles，小行动带来大欢笑，因此排队、捐书、引述与呼吁全部围绕分享与善意展开，立意集中。易错处：考生常写作中途离题，加插与主旨无关的资料；检查时逐段自问此段是否推进核心讯息，答案是否定的便删去，宁短勿散。
