给你看一篇范文,这也一个国内来的朋友的8年级孩子刚刚写的Setting,就是故事开头的描写片段。老师在全班读的时候让全班同学闭上眼睛静静地听,感受一下意境。朋友说他小孩花了15-20分钟写的,连草稿都没打。我复印一份,然后昨晚连夜又敲到了电脑上,黑灯瞎火的也不知道敲错了没有。
Abandoned lot – Stargazing
As darkness thickens over the Greaser's empty lot, the stars begin to appear in countless numbers. They spread across the night sky, like a spell cast by a powerful magician. By the time the distant noises of city fade away, the stars have became as numerous as the grains of sand on the beach. Listening to the chilly air blow across the barren lot, the tinge of uneasiness in our hearts soon became just a memory from the past. The stillness engulfs us, soothing our nerves, and calming our emotions. The sub-zero temperature stings the skin, but our minds are strangely relaxed. Happy and carefree thoughts flow through the atmosphere as we begin to lose count of the hours. Half-consciously, the stars seem to have re-scattered themselves, making even a more beautiful painting of light. On the horizon, the reddish smudge to brighten; the darkness lifts and the stars dim. As the dawn of a new day appears, the star fall into their sleep, but they will return again to shine over the Greaser's lot.
