情景导入
学校要接待一批外国交换生,英语老师请同学们写一篇短文,推荐"我们城市里最棒的一个地方"。
小舟想推荐西湖边的浙江图书馆,也想推荐清河坊历史街区,可怎么写才能让人"一看就想去"?
推荐类作文的灵魂是最高级 + 理由:不只是说 the best place,还要回答"为什么是最好"——最方便?最有趣?东西最好吃?这一讲我们学会用"是什么 → 为什么最好 → 怎么去"三步,把推荐写得让人心动。
核心词汇
推荐地点话题词汇:
| 类别 | 常用词汇 |
|---|---|
| 地点 | Hefang Street(清河坊街)、the West Lake(西湖)、the bookstore(书店)、the museum(博物馆)、the food street(美食街) |
| 评价 | the best(最好的)、the most interesting(最有趣的)、the most popular(最受欢迎的)、the cheapest(最便宜的)、the closest to...(离……最近的) |
| 理由 | delicious snacks(美味小吃)、friendly service(友好的服务)、a long history(悠久的历史)、beautiful views(美丽的风景) |
| 出行 | take the subway(乘地铁)、by bus(乘公交)、it takes only ten minutes(只需十分钟) |
句型与结构
三段式结构:
- 开头段(是什么):If you ask me about the best place in Hangzhou, my answer is Hefang Street.(点出推荐对象,可用 if 句吊起兴趣)
- 主体段(为什么最好):给出 2~3 条理由,每条"最高级 + 具体例子"——It has the most delicious snacks in town. You can try Dingsheng cake and West Lake lotus root starch. It is also one of the oldest streets, so you can learn a lot about the history of Hangzhou.
- 结尾段(怎么去 + 呼吁):It's easy to get there—just take Subway Line 1 to Ding'an Road. Don't miss it!
核心语法:最高级:
- 结构:the + 最高级 + 比较范围——the best place in town / the most popular of all
- 单音节加 -est:cheapest、oldest;多音节加 most:the most interesting
- one of the + 最高级 + 复数:one of the oldest streets(最古老的街道之一)
提分句型:
- 定语从句:It is a street that has a history of over 800 years.(这是一条有八百多年历史的街。)
- not only...but also:You can not only taste snacks but also watch traditional handicrafts.(你不仅能品尝小吃,还能看传统手工艺。)
- 祈使句收尾:Don't miss it!(千万别错过!)
听说训练
写前口头操练(先说顺再下笔):
- The best place in Hangzhou is Hefang Street. (杭州最棒的地方是清河坊街。)
- It has the most delicious snacks in town. (它有城里最好吃的小吃。)
- Just take Subway Line 1 and you'll get there. (只要乘地铁一号线就能到。)
辨析对比
| 比较级 | 最高级 | |
|---|---|---|
| 比较对象 | 两者之间 | 三者及以上范围内 |
| 结构 | 比较级 + than | the + 最高级 + in/of 范围 |
| 例句 | This street is older than that one. | It is the oldest street in Hangzhou. |
注意:最高级前的 the 不能丢——It is oldest street ❌ → It is the oldest street ✅;范围介词也有讲究:in + 地点(in town),of + 群体(of all the streets)。
文化角
在英语国家,人们出行前很依赖"评价文化":餐厅、景点都会看网上的 reviews(点评)和 star ratings(星级)。像 five stars(五星好评)、highly recommended(强烈推荐)都是高频表达。你的推荐作文其实就是一篇英文"种草笔记"——理由具体、信息实用(怎么去、花多久),才是打动读者的关键,这和写好一条五星点评是同一个道理。
易错点
- 最高级丢 the:It is best place ❌ → It is the best place ✅。
- 范围介词用错:the tallest of town ❌ → the tallest in town ✅;in 接地点,of 接同类群体。
- 只喊口号不给理由:It's the best! It's great!——每个"最"都要跟一个具体例子撑腰。
中考真题
假如你是李华,一批外国交换生即将来访。请写一篇短文向他们推荐你所在城市最棒的一个地方,内容包括:
- 推荐的地方是哪里;
- 推荐理由(至少两点);
- 出行建议。
要求:80 词左右,可适当发挥。

诵读小贴士:背诵时把三个最高级 the best、the most delicious、the oldest 读得响亮,体会"the + 最高级 + in 范围"的节奏。First / Second 领起两条理由,结尾祈使句 Don't miss it! 干脆有力——这就是推荐文的"收束拳"。
