第１堂課─經驗敘述篇
無論是誰，都會有值得拿出來寫成一篇文章的經驗。就算沒有經驗，也一定聽過別人說他們的經驗。英文作文常以最平易近人的題材出題，所以瞭解如何形容自己的經驗就很重要了。而且即使題目沒有直接點出「經驗」兩字，大部份的作文還是可以提到經驗，例如在議論文中舉自己的經驗為例證，或是在圖片題型中描述圖中角色的經驗。因此，描述經驗非常重要，不會的話就寫不出一篇好的英文作文！
●●模板攻略步驟藍圖
Step 1. 到底是怎樣的經驗？
What? Who? When? Where? Why? How? 牢記這雖然老套但偏偏就是這麼好用的5W1H，不但可以充實文章的內容，更能讓讀者清楚瞭解狀況。
以題目An Unforgettable Day為例：
What? 什麼事？要是你不說清楚，讀者可搞不清楚你難忘的一天到底做了什麼。在這裡就可以說My most unforgettable day is the day I moved to a new house. 「我最難忘的一天就是我搬到新房子的那一天。」
Who? 誰？例如I moved to the new house with my parents and my brother.「我和我的父母和哥哥一起搬到新房子。」
When? 什麼時候？例如It was when I was ten years old.「那時我十歲。」
Where? 在哪裡？例如Our new home was at the north of our old home.「我們的新家在舊家的北邊。」
Why? 為什麼？例如We had to move because my father found a new job.「我們必須搬家，因為我爸找到新工作。」
How? 如何做？例如We hired a moving truck to help us move.「我們雇了一台搬家卡車來幫我們搬家。」
有了這些詳細的說明，就可以完成相當充實、字數也夠多的第一段了。
Step 2. 讓畫面活起來！
光是只有「什麼時候、做了什麼」等等的事實，只會讓文章看起來有如課本一樣都是艱深難記的年代、人名。不想要讀者看作文像看課本一樣痛苦吧？這時候就要回想發生這個經驗時的情形。有什麼特別的地方？為什麼這件事就是比其他事值得一寫？為什麼你會記得這件事記那麼久？
例如，你可以說Because we were moving to another city, I had to say goodbye to my friends. I thought I would never see them again, and it made me very sad. It was raining very hard that day, and we hugged and cried in the rain.「因為我們要搬去另一個城市，我得跟我的朋友說再見。我覺得我再也見不到他們了，這讓我很傷心。當天雨下得很大，我們在雨中抱著哭。」
這麼一來，漸漸就有畫面了。
Step 3. 再加上感想！
講完發生了什麼事之後就直接結束了會太突然，也沒有一個結論。這時就可以加上你的心得感想。這件事讓你感覺如何？發生了這件事後，你的人生有什麼改變？有讓你從此對某些事情改觀嗎？同樣的經驗你還想要再體驗一次嗎？例如，你可以說After that experience, I learned to cherish my friends even more. No matter old friends or new, I enjoyed every moment with them, because I can never know when they might be taken from me.「經過這次經驗，我學會更珍惜我的朋友。無論是舊朋友還是新朋友，我享受和他們在一起的每一刻，因為我永遠不會知道他們究竟何時必須與我分開。」
就算題目只叫你描述事情，閱卷老師看到只有敘事而沒有感情的文章，還是會覺得好像少了什麼。用自己的感想收尾，可以讓文章更完整也更生動。

An Embarrassing Experience
I will never forget the embarrassing experience that happened to me when I was a junior high school student. No matter when I think of this memorable experience, I still feel mortified and cannot help blushing.
I can still remember that it happened when I was in a school play, and I got a very important role: Romeo in Romeo and Juliet. The whole school came to watch our performance. I felt ecstatic because I could act in front of such a large audience. I thought I was very handsome and felt very proud. I was so proud that I forgot to watch where I was going, and fell off the stage. The crowd laughed so hard! Even the principal was laughing. The image of my principal laughing so hard that his glasses fell off has always remained clear in my mind.
This precious experience has changed my attitude towards life. Would that this had never happened, I would have become an arrogant person. This is the reason why I will always remember the experience.
一次丟臉的經驗
我永遠不會忘記我還是國中生時發生在我身上的丟臉經驗。無論我什麼時候想起這個難忘的經驗，我總是覺得很窘，忍不住臉紅。
我還記得這件事是在我演出一齣學校的戲劇時發生的。我拿到一個很重要的角色：羅密歐與茱麗葉裡的羅密歐。全校都來看我們的表演，我覺得超興奮，因為我可以在這麼多觀眾前表演。我覺得我超帥，很驕傲。我驕傲到忘記注意我要走去哪裡，結果摔下舞台。全場哄堂大笑，連校長都在笑。校長笑到眼鏡都掉下來的畫面永遠會清晰地留在我心中。
這個珍貴的經驗改變了我對人生的看法。如果它沒有發生，我會變成一個驕傲的人。所以，我永遠不會忘記這個經驗。

學會了模板式句型之後，你已經具備寫作的基本功力了，以下提供兩篇範文再看看別人的作文都怎麼寫，別忘了看最後的小分析為你解說喔！
1. What I Did Last Summer
During the last summer vacation I worked part-time at a bookstore. As an assistant to the storekeeper, I had to classify books and put them on the proper shelves. At first, I was not quite sure where to put each book. However, after a few days, I was able to help a customer find the book that he was looking for. I liked this job very much in that I could learn about many books; what was better, during my break time, I could read as many books as possible. Therefore, it seems that I became a knowledgeable person after the part-time job.
By working part-time, students can not only earn their own pocket money, but they can also gain some working experience and earn their tuition. In addition, they can acquire a feeling of independence and a sense of responsibility. But a part-time job should by no means affect studies. And students are not allowed to work at places such as KTVs, night clubs, and saloon bars. In other words, students cannot be too careful when choosing their part-time job.
去年夏天我做的事
去年暑假，我在一家書店打工。我是店主的助手，要把書分類、放到正確的架子上。一開始，我不太確定每本書要放哪裡。但是過了幾天後，我已經可以幫顧客找到他要找的書了。我很喜歡這個工作，因為我可以學關於許多書的知識，而且在我休息的時候我可以想看多少書就看多少書。因此，我在打這個工之後似乎成為一個知識豐富的人了。
打工不但可以讓學生自己賺零用錢，也可以讓他們獲得工作經驗、賺學費。而且，他們可以得到一種自主、負責的感覺。但是打工絕對不能影響讀書，而且學生不可以在KTV、夜店、沙龍吧工作。也就是說，學生在選擇打工地點的時候，一定要很小心。
小分析：不但說出自己的經驗，也在結尾舉出其他的打工地點作比較，並提出警惕，是個下結論的好方法。

第二段描述你現在對這個經驗的看法。
評分標凖：內容5分，組織5分，文法4分，用字遣詞4分，拼字、大小寫及標點符號2分。
【中文翻譯 】
我永遠不會忘記我去年夏天到美國洛杉磯時發生的丟臉的經驗。無論我何時想起這個糟糕的經驗，我都覺得很後悔，忍不住要搖頭。我記得這件事發生在我剛下飛機，覺得又累又餓的時候。我到機場的麥當勞排隊等著點餐。就在那時，排在我前面的一個高大的外國人踩到了我的腳趾頭。他可能沒發現他作的好事，不過我可是痛得不得了。我用中文裡一些不堪入耳的字眼一直咒罵著他。突然，他轉過頭來，用中文對我說了聲：「對不起。」當時我實在是嚇了一跳，以致我根本來不及想辦法回應。他難過的臉一直鮮明地留在我心裡。
如果我可以回到那個時候，我想我應該會跟他說：「沒關係。」那時的我實在是太不理智，以致於我忘記了一件重要的事情：「人非聖賢，孰能無過？原諒才是聖賢之道！」而我也太容易生氣，不但自己不高興，也讓別人不舒服。從這個珍貴的經驗，我學到如何作個更冷靜的人。我也學到了俗話「不要在別人的背後說壞話」說得真對！

自由發揮的參考解答範本：
1. A Sad Experience
I will never forget the sad experience that happened to me when I was a little boy. Whenever I recalled this event, I always felt sad and couldn’t help shedding bitter tears.
I remember that it happened when I was playing in front of my home with my puppy. She was a very sweet and naughty puppy, and we had lots of fun together every day. I threw a ball at her and told her to fetch it and bring it to me. As she barked happily and ran towards the ball, a speeding truck appeared out of nowhere and crushed my puppy right in front of my eyes. The frightening image has always remained clear in my mind.
This sad experience taught me that I need to cherish life and those around me more, because we never know what would happen next. Now, I do my best to enjoy and savor every moment I have with those around me. Would that this had not happened, I would have become a careless, less loving person. This precious experience has changed my perspective on life. This is the reason why I will always remember the experience.
