Ask students to rewrite the diary entry. A sample version:On the next day, I teamed up with a couple from my hotel (Peter an
19、d Terri) and hired a car. We spent all day driving around city. Theres a great drive marked out for tourists. It has blue and white signs with seagulls on them to show way to go. Its a 79km round-trip that takes in all the famous spots. We stopped many times to admire the view and take photographs.
20、Now we have really good idea of what the citys like. In the evening, I went to Chinatown with Peter and Terri. Chinese immigrants settled in this area in the 1850s. The fronts of the buildings are decorated to look like old buildings in southern China. There are some interesting temples here, and a
21、number of markets and a great many restaurants. Also there are art galleries and a museum containing documents, photographs and all sorts of objects about the history of Chinese immigration, but its closed in the evening.

Show the following on the screen.Description of a placeJust as an artist uses paint to create a picture, a writer uses words to create a description. Desriptive writing creates a picture of a person, place, thin
23、g or event. A description essay is generally developed through sensory details. Here are some tips about the description.1. Selecting details: The writer should choose those that help to bring out the dominant characteristic.2. Catching the features of the place: You should mainly write about the th
24、ings that make it different from other places.3. Giving your view points: Places may be described for their own sake, as in essays on visits to famous scenic places. 4. Giving your purpose: You should describe the place for the purpose of revealing the personality and character of a person, or creating a feeling or mood.
