我是一个中国人

审题构思：题目要求用第一人称或第三人称，还要符合“我是中国人”这一中

心。不可写成议论文，记叙的事情可大可小，但必须有一点意义。

Mr. Li was hurrying to attend a lesson of an Australian teacher when he caught

sight of the red light. In Gold Coast there were much fewer passers-by than in

Shanghai, especially at 1:30 p. m. when people were busy working. Nobody would

have noticed him had he neglected the red light.

However, he waited, and waited for the green light.  " There might be

something wrong with the light," thought he, but anything against the traffic rules

was out of the question, for he wass a visiting Chinese teacher. Just then came an old

Australian gentleman, who felt surprised at the foreigner waiting alone by the road.

"Good afternoon," he said in Japanese, unexpectedly. "Good afternoon, but

sorry I don't know much Japanese, for I am a Chinese,". responded Mr. Li, in

English. Obviously astonished, the Australian explained he took it for granted that

 

Mr. Li was from Japan, for Japanese tourists were always in good manners.

 

Mr Li often tell us students to always remmember we're from China,and we Chinese people are always in good manners. (177 words)

【中文翻译】李老师正在赶去听一位澳大利亚教师的课，就在这时看到红灯亮了。在黄金

  海岸，行人远远比_L-海少得多，尤其在下午1:30人们都在忙于工作的时候。他如

  果不顾红灯，不会有任何人注意到他。可是他一直等着绿灯。“说不定灯出毛病

  了，”他想。可是任何违反交通规则的事情都是不可能的，因为他是来自中国的访

问教师。正在这时来了一个澳大利亚老先生，他看到这个外国人独自等在路边觉

得奇怪。“下午好，”他意外地用日语说。“下午好，可是抱歉，我不大懂日语，因为

我是中国人，”李老师用英语应答。澳大利亚人显然感到惊讶，解释说他满以为李

先生是日本人，因为日本旅游者总是风度翩翩的。李老师常常告诉我们学生:永远

记住我们来自中国，我们中国人总是很有风度的。

  【亮点分析】内容方面，值得一提的是细节的交代，例如“赶去听课”，“马路行

人稀少，闯红灯也不会有人看到”，为下文等绿灯做了铺垫。对于老外的小误会没

有作过多的解释和评论，但是李老师对学生的教导却不可或缺、因为既是全文的结

尾，又是全文的中心.语言方面，亮点有:caught sight Of/would have noticed/out of 

the question/took it for granted that/be in good manners等。
