Getting Lost|迷路记

Getting Lost

迷路记

提示：

　　前往陌生的地方，可能突然找不到路，几经波折后，才到达目的地。请以 "Getting Lost" 为题，写一篇文长至少 120 个单词（words）的文章，叙述一段迷路的经验。文分两段，第一段说明这个迷路经验的背景，第二段则描述如何找到目的地或最后发生了什么令人意想不到的结果。

审　题

每个人或多或少都有迷路的经验，迷路的原因通常是因为前往目的地的过程中，发生了一些无预警的小插曲，导致自己置身于不熟悉的环境当中，面临潜在的危险事物，或难以脱困的窘境，事件结局也因此常充满不确定性。

根据提示，可知本篇作文是记叙文，简而言之，就是在说故事。说故事的要领在于生动、有趣。除此之外，还须安排布局，要点如下：

1. 架构：不只记叙文，任何文体都要有一条线索贯穿全文。那就是开头（主题句），中间（发展）和结尾（结论）。

2. 角度：记叙文常用第一人称或第三人称的观点来叙述。前者以『我』为出发点，读起来比较亲切，后者以『他』为立场，叙述比较客观。

3. 顺序：记叙文最常用的是『按时间顺序』的方式来书写。这种方式最调理分明，容易把事情交待清楚。偶有用『倒叙法』来写，但初学者不宜尝试。

动动脑（Brainstorming）

第一段：说明最难忘的一次迷路经验在何时发生（when）、前去该地方的原因（why），以及迷路的过程（how）：

‧拿到机车驾照当天，我骑着机车去参加和朋友的午餐聚会；虽然我事先查过地图，但我还是被实际的路况给弄胡涂了。

‧有一年夏天我去俄国念书，而我的学校在莫斯科郊区；搭完地铁后，我转乘到错误的公交车而找不到前往学校的路。

‧上个月我和朋友去爬山，我们都很喜爱这项活动，所以决定展开 5 天的旅行来征服雪山；旅行的最后一天，我早起去取干净的水来做早餐，但却找不到路回去扎营的地点。

第二段：叙述找到目的地的方式（how）和这次迷路经验的结局（what）：

‧我把机车停在 1 个捷运站附近，然后搭捷运赴约；聚会结束，我发现机车被拖吊，必须付罚金才能取回车子。

‧我遇到 1 位来自台湾的好心男子，他也要去相同的地方，所以我们一同前往；巧的是，这名男子结果是我的同学。

‧我明白自己离帐篷处不远，于是我升起火好让朋友知道我所在的地方；他们花了 1 个小时找到我，但幸好他们办到了，我才得以平安归来。

范文：

Everyone gets lost at one point or another. The day I got my motorcycle license, I wanted to ride my new scooter to a lunch date with some of my friends. However, things didn't go as expected. Even though I planned my route on a map beforehand, I was unfamiliar with the roads and got confused.

Luckily, there was an MRT station not too far from where I stopped, so I quickly parked my scooter and jumped on the MRT. When I got to the restaurant, my friends questioned me about what had happened. After the meal, I took the MRT back, and much to my shock, my scooter had been towed away. I had no option but to take a taxi to retrieve it. Then, I settled the NT$800 fine to get my scooter back, which was a hefty price to pay for getting lost.

The day I got my motorcycle license, I wanted to ride my new scooter to a lunch date with some of my friends.

　　每个人都曾经迷路过。我拿到机车驾照当天，想要骑新机车去参加一些朋友的午餐聚会。不过，事情不如预料中的那样发展。即使事先在地图上规划好路线，但我因为不熟悉路况而被搞胡涂了。

　　所幸，距离我停下来的地方不远处有个捷运站，于是我很快把机车停好并搭上捷运。抵达餐厅时，朋友们纷纷询问我发生了什么事。用餐完毕后，我搭捷运回去停车的地方，让我非常震惊的是，我的机车遭到拖吊。我别无他法，只好搭出租车去取回机车。之后，我付了 8 百元台币的罚金才拿回机车，这次迷路的代价还真是高得吓人。
