Question

【题目】阅读下面短文，然后按要求写一篇150词左右的英语短文。

I am a 19-year-old girl named Gina. When I was 17, I gave blood for the first time. It was a little scary because I don’t like needles and I am afraid of looking at my own blood.

The blood drive was in the high school gym. I determined to help because I had read the poster about how much one pint(品脱：计量单位) of blood could do for someone else.

After signing a form, I lay in the chair. When I waited for the nurse to get to me, one girl I didn’t know well noticed my nervousness and sat next to me, telling me what a good thing we were doing for someone else. It took a long time to get a pint. But somehow, I suddenly felt like an adult when my first blood donation was finished. I had overcome my fear in order to do something selfless that would benefit others.

Now ,I still donate blood. The Red Cross calls and invites me to blood drives, and I always try to go. It’s not scary any more. It’s something you do for others, without getting anything in return.

Answer 1

【答案】

In the passage, Gina, a 19-year-old girl, shared us her first experience of donating blood, in which she realized that what she did would benefit others and made her an adult.

People’s opinions on donating blood vary from person to person. Some people believe it’s good to both patients and donators. However , others are willing to give blood because they think it may be harmful to their health.

As to me, I am in favor of the first idea. Those people who need blood must be seriously ill or badly injured, so you can save life if you donate blood in time. Besides, donating blood will not do harm to our health. According to doctors, we even can benefit from it physically.

When growing up, teenagers should begin to do something for the society and other people. Donating blood is a good way to help us understand our social responsibility and the meaning of giving.

【解析】

试题分析：该类写作考查考生阅读理解、要点概括、用英语叙事说理等多方面能力。解答此类试题，除了要注意一般写作规范之外，还要准确理解所给文章的中心思想并准确予以解读和概括。需要首先概括所给材料内容，然后介绍不同看法和自己的看法。应该用三段式结构。要尽量使用高级词汇和句型。

【亮点说明】本文首先介绍了Gina的情况，然后提出人们的不同看法，用as to me作为纽带，联系到自己的看法，最后提出倡议。文中使用了一些连接词，如 besides，however等。还用过了状语从句if you donate blood in time.定语从句who need blood等等，较好地完成了写作任务。
