1Friday, 20th March
Weather: Rainy
2Today was a day full of surprises. I was a little sad at first because of the rain, as we could not play outside at lunchtime. In the morning, I felt nervous because we had a maths test. When I opened the paper, my mind went blank for a moment. Luckily, I remembered Ms Lee's tips and finished every question. I felt like a hero when I handed in my paper.
3In the afternoon, our class teacher announced the results of the art competition. I felt excited when she called my name — I won first prize! My painting of the harbour will be shown in the school hall. My friends jumped up and shouted, 'Well done!' I was so happy that I almost cried.
4After school, Mum bought me a mango cake to celebrate. We shared it with Grandma and talked about my day. I felt happy and thankful at the same time. Even the rain could not wash away my smile. I will keep this page in my diary and smile again every time I read it. I am excited about tomorrow too.

3逐步講解 Steps
- 格式考點是日記格式的頭兩行:先寫日期與天氣,例如 Saturday, 21st March. Weather: Sunny. 日期包括星期、日子與月份,天氣用一個詞。方法是把這兩項當常常記的固定抬頭,每次動筆先寫齊。寫齊這兩項,日後重溫便一目了然,知道那天是星期幾、天氣如何,回憶便有憑據。易錯之處是漏寫天氣,或把星期與月份的開頭字母細寫;抬頭寫得規矩,格式分便穩拿,這是日記題的第一關。
- 時態考點是日記的時態:記述當天發生的事,主體用過去式,例如 I went to Ocean Park and saw the pandas. went 與 saw 都是不規則過去式,要個別記牢。方法是先定時態的框架:記事用過去式,談現在的想法用現在式,寫將來的計劃用將來式,三種時態各司其職。易錯之處是全篇現在式,把已發生的事寫成 I go、I see;動筆前先問自己:這件事發生了沒有?發生了便用過去式,這一問能避免大半時態錯誤。
- 內容考點是日記內容的配搭:事件加感受,例如 I saw pandas. I was so excited! 方法是挑一至兩件最難忘的事來寫,每件事後面跟一句感受。只記事而沒有感受,日記便像流水帳;情感才令文字有溫度。易錯之處是寫了五六件事卻每件一筆帶過,篇篇平面;倒不如集中寫一兩件,寫得深入,事件與感受交替出現,日記讀起來便立體動人,這也是內容分的關鍵。
- 第一人稱考點是日記的人稱:用第一人稱 I 書寫,句子直接而親切,例如 I was so happy that I smiled all day. 方法是全篇保持同一人稱,由第一句到最後一句都是 I。日記的好處是可以直接寫出心底想法,這是日記與其他文體的分別,也是它最動人的地方。易錯之處是人稱忽然轉換,由 I 跳成 he 或 she,讀者便糊塗了;寫完檢查一遍人稱,前後一致才交卷,這是穩分的最後一步。
- 格式三行考點是日記開頭的三行格式:日期 Friday, 20th March、天氣 Rainy、稱呼 Dear Diary。三行從上而下依次寫好,然後才開始正文。Dear Diary 是日記的傳統稱呼,令文章像與老朋友交談,語氣自然親切。易錯之處是三行次序顛倒,或漏寫稱呼;格式是日記的門面,三行寫得整整齊齊,閱卷者一看便知基本功扎實,這一關切不可失,練習時便要按三行的次序養成習慣。
- 事件配感受考點是事件配感受的寫法:每寫一件事,便補上一句感受,例如 I saw pandas. I was so excited! 感受句用 I was 加情緒形容詞,如 excited、tired、proud,事件與感受交替出現,日記讀起來才立體。易錯之處是感受句千篇一律,全篇只會一個 happy;情緒詞宜輪流運用,高興、疲倦、自豪各有各的寫法,情感便有層次,文章便有起伏,這是日記寫得動人的秘訣。
