1、 日记是人们对日常生活的记录，用来记述自己一天生活的所见、所闻、所问、所思、所感。英文日记通常由两部分构成，即书端和正文，其格式与中文相同，下面就是英文日记各部分的书写格式示意图：
那么，用英语写日记应注意哪些方面的问题呢？
1. 注意日期、星期和天气的书写位置。
日期和星期要写在正文的左上角，其顺序多是“星期 + 月、日、年”，也有把星期放在后面的，如“ 2003 年 11 月 22 日，星期一”可写为“ Monday November 22, 2003 或 November 22, 2003 Monday ”。天气情况应写在正文的右上角，如： Fine,
2、Rainy, Cloudy, Windy 等。
2. 关于标题的书写。
在日期和天气的下一行中间可以写上日记小标题，也可以不写标题。
3. 关于正文的书写。
正文是关于一天生活的记载，也是日记的主题。在书写正文时要做到： 1 ）要选择当天感受最深刻、最有意义的事件来描述，不要写成简单的流水帐； 2 ）日记的内容多是亲身经历和耳闻目睹的事情，所以要用第一人称来写； 3 ）日记多是在当天晚上来记述当天发生过的事情，因为动词时态常使用过去时，但使用时必须灵活掌握，如景物描写、议论某事、对话引语等要使用现在时态； 4 ）日记应以时间发生的先后顺序来展开，并且要
3、简明扼要，条理清楚，写出真实感。

［点到为止］
小作者能用准确、地道的语言，简练的语句非常生动地描写出了野炊的场面。这篇文章条理清楚，尤其是“ some … some … , others …”句型，以及 singing, eating 等现在分词作伴随状语的运用，使这篇日记增色不少。本文结尾使用了一个感叹句，更加反映出小作者对这次野炊的真实情感。
