写作是对语言掌握的最高境界。尤其是考试中的作文，必须是吸引人的，精彩的，（MOE认为)正确的。

只要掌握关键技巧，小学英文作文不再头疼！

小学作文 Narrative fiction essay

技巧一：行云流水 essay flow
tools: 5W1H, commonsense/logical thinking. Avoid problem of disjointed narrative/disrupted flow of plot. Assume examiners are stupid
bad example: Annie was walking back home from school. Suddenly, she saw a cat stuck in the tree.
good example: Annie was walking home from school. Suddenly, she heard a loud meowing coming from the trees. Upon closer look, Annie found a cat stuck in the tree.

技巧二：七情六欲 character's emotions/feelings

喜 Happy – elated
激 Excited – brimming with excitment
伤 Sad – melancholy
怒 Angry – enraged, inflamed
急 Anxious – dilated pupils, adrenaline rush
惊 Shock – paralyzed with fear

作文中关于人物的情感描写是至关重要的！考官们不想看到冰冷冷硬帮帮的人物性格。Examiners want characters to react emotively to the given situation. They like drama.
