情景导入
班级文化节要做一面"好朋友照片墙",每张照片旁边要配一段英文介绍:My Friend and I。
小舟和好朋友大力从小学就是同桌,可他写来写去只有 We are good friends. He is tall. I am short. 干巴巴的。
其实这类作文的"引擎"是比较级:taller、more outgoing、study harder……先写相同点,再写不同点,最后点出"正因为互补,我们才是好朋友"——一篇有温度又有语法亮点的作文就完成了。
核心词汇
人物比较话题词汇:
| 类别 | 常用词汇 |
|---|---|
| 外貌 | taller(更高)、thinner(更瘦)、stronger(更壮)、shorter hair(更短的头发) |
| 性格 | more outgoing(更外向)、quieter(更文静)、funnier(更风趣)、more serious(更严肃)、friendlier(更友好) |
| 学习 | study harder(学习更努力)、be better at math(数学更好)、read more books(读更多书) |
| 相同点 | both(两者都)、the same as(和……一样)、similar(相似的)、enjoy doing the same things(喜欢做同样的事) |
句型与结构
三段式结构:
- 开头段(介绍朋友):My best friend is Dali. We have been friends since primary school.(朋友是谁 + 关系多久)
- 主体段(同与不同):先相同——We both like playing basketball, and we go to the same school. 再不同——Dali is taller and more outgoing than me. He always makes us laugh. I am quieter, but I study harder than him, so I often help him with math.
- 结尾段(点题升华):Although we are different, we get on well and help each other. That's why we are best friends.
核心语法:比较级:
- 结构:A + be/动词 + 比较级 + than + B——He is taller than me.
- 单音节加 -er:taller、shorter;多音节加 more:more outgoing、more serious
- both 的位置:We both like sports. = Both of us like sports.
提分句型:
- as...as 同级比较:I am as tall as my father now.(我现在和爸爸一样高了。)
- 比较级 + and + 比较级:We are getting closer and closer.(我们的关系越来越亲密。)
- That's why...:That's why we are best friends.(这就是我们成为好朋友的原因。)
听说训练
写前口头操练(先说顺再下笔):
- My best friend is Dali and we both like basketball. (我最好的朋友是大力,我们都喜欢篮球。)
- He is taller and more outgoing than me. (他比我更高、更外向。)
- Although we are different, we help each other. (虽然我们不同,但我们互相帮助。)
辨析对比
| 写法 | 例句 | 说明 |
|---|---|---|
| 口语常用 | He is taller than me. | than 后直接用宾格,中考写作完全可用 |
| 正式写法 | He is taller than I am. | than 后接完整从句,更正式 |
| 错误写法 | He is taller than I ❌ | 单独一个主格挂在句尾,不建议 |
注意:还要防止"比较对象不对等"——His hair is longer than me ❌(头发和"我"比?)→ His hair is longer than mine ✅(他的头发比我的长)。
文化角
英语里关于朋友的谚语特别多:A friend in need is a friend indeed.(患难见真情。)Birds of a feather flock together.(物以类聚。)西方文化也强调 opposites attract(性格互补的人互相吸引),这和"我和朋友比一比"的写作思路不谋而合——不同不是问题,互补才是友谊的黏合剂。作文结尾引用一句谚语,是稳稳的加分项。
易错点
- 双重比较:more taller ❌ → taller ✅,-er 和 more 只能选一个。
- 比较对象不对等:My hair is longer than you ❌ → longer than yours ✅。
- 只写不同忘了相同:先用 both 写共同点,再转折写不同点,文章才完整。
中考真题
假如你是李华,学校英语报开展 My Friend and I 征文活动。请写一篇短文介绍你和好朋友,内容包括:
- 你们的相同之处;
- 你们的不同之处(外貌或性格,至少两点);
- 你们为什么能成为好朋友。
要求:80 词左右,可适当发挥。

My best friend is Dali. We have been friends since primary school in Hangzhou.
We are the same in many ways. We both like playing basketball, and we often play together after school. However, we are also different. Dali is taller and more outgoing than me. He always makes everyone laugh. I am quieter, but I study harder than him, so I often help him with math, and he helps me with sports.
Although we are different, we get on well and help each other. That's why we are best friends.
点评:① 结构清晰:介绍—相同—不同—点题;② 比较级用得准:taller、more outgoing、quieter、harder;③ 亮点句型:both、although 让步、That's why 收尾;④ 约 95 词,"互补见友谊"立意佳。
考点
- 人物比较类作文对应八年级上 I'm more outgoing than my sister 单元,核心考查形容词、副词比较级的构成与使用;
- 评分要点:相同点与不同点都要写到,比较对象对等(mine / yours),性格词汇丰富;
- 备考策略:给自己和好朋友各准备 3 个形容词(外貌 1 + 性格 2),列一张"同与不同"小表格,考场按表成文。

诵读小贴士:背诵时注意两个"转折路标"——However 领起不同点,Although 引出升华段。比较级 taller、more outgoing、quieter、harder 连读几遍,形成语感:单音节加 -er,多音节加 more,写作时就不会犹豫。
