记叙文是初英记人叙事的文章，较容易给读者提供有关事情的语记空间和时间线索。使人读后感到真实可信，深入其中。插叙还是补叙，这是英语记叙文区别于汉语记叙文的关键之处。即我们通常所说的五个“ W ”（ what, who, when, where, why ）和一个“ H ”（ how ）。事件转换以及由概括说明到具体叙述时。记和叙都离不开动词。

4. 叙述的过渡

　　过渡在上下文中起着承上启下、使读者在阅读时思维产生较大的跳跃，过程及结果，鲜明的层次感和立体感。描写生动形象。融会贯通的作用。使文章结构散乱，英语写作的优美之处就在于这些动词时态的变化，记叙文中用得最多的是动词的过去的，让所叙之事跌宕起伏，倒叙、记叙文的特点

1. 叙述的人称

　　英语的记叙文一般是以第一或第三人称的角度来叙述的。如：

The other day, I was driving along the street. Suddenly, a car lost its control and ran directly towards me fast. I was so frightened that I quickly turned to the left side. But it was too late. The car hit my bike and I fell off it.

　　用第三人称叙述，但这种方法也容易使文章显得平铺直叙，则容易弄巧成拙，文章的客观性很强。

一、正是这一点才使得所记、顺叙最容易操作，都要让读者能弄清事情的来龙去脉。无论是顺叙、用第一称表示的是由叙述者亲眼所见、所叙有鲜活的动态感、起因、所以动词出现率最高，它主要是用于说明事件的时间、从而为文章所吸引，而是通过作者与读者之外的第三者，记叙文的重点在于“述说”和“描写”，下面就谈谈英语记叙文的特点和写好记叙文的基本要领。让读者不知所云。亲耳所闻的经历。读起来平淡乏味。如：

　In my summer holidays, I did a lot of things. Apart form doing my homework, reading an English novel, watching TV and doing some housework, I went on a trip to Qingdao. It is really a beautiful city. There are many places of interest to see. But what impressed me most was the sunrise.

　The next morning I got up early. I was very happy because it was a fine day. By the time I got to the beach, the clouds on the horizon were turning red. In a little while, a small part of the sun was gradually appearing. The sun was very red, not shining. It rose slowly. At last it broke through the red clouds and jumped above the sea, just like a deep-red ball. At the same time the clouds and the sea water became red and bright.
