To My Bosom Friend
I was sad when you told me that you would go abroad. I＇m going to lose a bosom friend①.
When people say that I speak English fluently, I know, I owe the praise to you.
Do you remember that English class, when we were learning the text The Necklace? The teacher asked me to act Mathilde and you to act Jeanne. I was so nervous that my voice trembled, but you spoke so naturally and nicely. How I admired you! After class, you said to me:“Don＇t be afraid, and don＇t be shy. If you like English you must open your mouth.”I was deeply touched by these words.
Since then we spoke English whenever we met each other trying our best to express ourselves in English.
I＇ll never forget the Sunday when we saw the American film Turning Point. Though the actors and the actresses spoke very fast and I coudn＇t catch every word of the story, I got the main idea. Then we talked about the film for almost the whole day. It was, moreover, my turning point. From then on, I began to watch English on Sunday, to listen to Radio Beijing and began to pay more attention to English programs. We are both fond of American pop songs②. Sometimes we go to the movies, sometimes we go to the English Corner at the People＇s Park to practise our oral English.
Now, you are leaving me, but I＇ll never forget the happy days we have spent together. I＇ll never forget you. I hope you won＇t forget me and other classmates of yours. Above all, I hope you won＇t forget our motherland where you were born, and have been living. I hope you will study and work hard to achieve great achievements and then to render ③ service to repay ④ our country.

【寫法指要】
本文作者滿懷感激之情表達了對與知心朋友相處時的快樂日子的懷念。文章選材很巧妙，只選擇了課后摯友鼓勵自己開口講英語和周日看美國電影《轉折》之后自己在聽說方面的轉折兩個情節(jié)。但是，讀者讀來倍感情深意切。同時，文中有些地方用第二人稱來寫，更使人感到作者所抒發(fā)的感情的親切。
