particularly interested in seeing,we bought an excellent guidebook and read it thoroughly before leaving.
Friendly warnings didn’t change our planning,although we might have more prudently checked with the U.S.State Department’s list of troublespots.We didn’t see a lot of children among the foreign visitors during our six-day stay in Istanbul,but we found the tourist areas quite safe,very interesting and varied enough even to suit our son,whose oft-repeated request is that we not see “every single” church and museum in a given city.
Vaccinations weren’t needed for the city,but we were concerned about adapting to the water for a short stay.So we used bottled water for drinking and brushing our teeth,a precaution that may seem excessive,but we all stayed healthy.
Taking the advice of a friend,we booked a hotel a 20-minute walk from most of Istanbul’s major tourist sites.This not only got us some morning exercise,strolling over the Karakoy Bridge,but took us past a colorful assortment of fishermen,vendors and shoe shiners.
From a teenager and pre-teen’s view,Istanbul street life is fascinating since almost everything can be bought outdoors.They were at a good age to spend time wandering the labyrinth of the Spice Bazaar,where shops display mounds of pungent herbs in sacks.Doing this with younger children would be harder simply because the streets are so packed with people;it would be easy to get lost.
For our two,whose buying experience consisted of department stores and shopping mall boutiques,it was amazing to discover that you could bargain over price and perhaps end up with two of something for the price of one.They also learned to figure out the relative value of the Turkish lira,not a small matter with its many zeros.
Being exposed to Islam was an important part of our trip.Visiting the mosques,especially the enormous Blue Mosque,was our first glimpse into how this major religion is practiced.Our children’s curiosity already had been piqued by the five daily calls to prayer over loudspeakers in every corner of the city,and the scarves covering the heads of many women.
Navigating meals can be troublesome with children,but a kebab,bought on
the street or in restaurants,was unfailingly popular.Since we had decided this trip was not for gourmets,kebabs spared us the agony of trying to find a restaurant each day that would suit the adults’ desire to try something new amid children’s insistence that the food be served immediately.Gradually,we branched out to try some other Turkish specialties.
Although our son had studied Islam briefly,it is impossible to be prepared for every awkward question that might come up,such as during our visits to the Topkapi Sarayi,the Ottoman Sultans’ palace.No guides were available so it was do-it-yourself,using our guidebook,which cheated us of a lot of interesting history and anecdotes that a professional guide could provide.Next time,we resolved to make such arrangements in advance.
On this trip,we wandered through the magnificent complex,with its imperial treasures,its courtyards and its harem.The last required a bit of explanation that we would have happily left to a learned third party.

三种写作体裁:记叙文、议论文、应用文。
教师应从以下四个方面指导学生进行英语记叙文写作: (1)明确五个W和一个H
要写好记叙文,首先要确定先写什么,最后写什么,然后用五个W和一个H的方法开始布局谋篇,即what(什么事),who(什么人),when(什么时候),where(什么地点),why(什么原因),how(怎么样)。整个写作内容的确定、写作材料的筛选,都要围绕这五个W和一个H进行。 (2)确定以第几人称及以何种顺序展开叙述
一般来说,英语记叙文要以第一人称(I/we)和第三人称(he/she/it/they)来展开叙述。第一人称是从“参与者”的角度进行叙述;第三人称是以“观察者”的身份展开叙述,要根据具体情况合理选用。
在确定了人称之后,要确定展开记叙的顺序。在英语记叙文中,最常用的是按事情发展的时间或空间顺序进行记叙。 (3)在塑造人物、展开情节上下工夫
记叙的任何事情都是由人来进行的,人物塑造的好坏是衡量记叙文好坏的一个
