Introduction or BackgroundIt may include an outline of the terms of reference or the reasons for the decision to write the report (see below).Explain the background to the issue/problem/topic (this could be the history, etc. that helps us understand the issue/problem/topic.What are the different points of view/opinions about the issue/problem/topic? What is likely to happen in the future?This report was requested by a number of students having difficulty understanding how to write a report.This report aims to give students a plan to follow when preparing their material and an example of the layout of a report.The material for this report was gathered from various books and web sites which will be referred to later. This format is not the only way to write a report. It is written especially for students undertaking Academic English. However it can be a useful guide to any student in any subject.3. Scope of Report or Research Objectives Outline the purpose of your report.The scope of the report should define major issues or research objectives to be addressed by the report.If in doubt, ask you teacher. They may be able to help you find the right place to look for information.4. Research MethodologyMost reports will include:∙ 4.1 primary sources of information –surveys, questionnaires∙ 4.2 secondary sources of information –books, internetThis section needs to detail how the information for the report was obtained and any limitations. The place to start is in your own head. How much do you already know about the topic? Write everything down.Use the library. Not just the internet. There are books, magazines, newspapers, and staff to help you. Take notes and organise the information ina folder.Remember to write down all the information about any book or web site, etc.for the bibliography: author, title, date published, publisher and placepublished (see Appendix B of this report).Note taking skills are necessary when reading information and you mustsummarise much of that information.5. Detailed FindingsThe largest section of the report– it will contain all the information and analysis, including tables, charts and diagrams.The body must be divided into logical sections and subsections with headings identical to those in the Table of Contents.It will include headings and sub-headings which reflect the contents of eachsection.Although a report starts with a synopsis do not start writing it until AFTER you finish the introduction, body and conclusion in that order.5.1 FIRST DRAFTDivide the body of the report into headings and subheadings, so each section can be written on its own. This makes the task seem easier.Use the passive voice (revise this section of English on Cue, Module 5). Use short sentences and simple, formal language. Include pictures if you want to make it more interesting e.g. ”Diagram 2 shows that……”Use your computer’s spell check and print preview where possible. Plan the pages carefully. Careless layout will lose marks. Check grammar andpunctuation.When referencing a book, etc. in your writing remember quoting directly must use quotation marks e.g. “There are many reasons why people visitAustralia…..” (Smith 2012).Indirect quotes (paraphrasing): Smith (2012) says there are many differentreasons people want to visit Australia.Save two copies: one on your computer and one on a USB. Lost work meansstarting again.5.2 SECOND DRAFTProducing the second draft is not hard once your first draft of the report isedited, typed and saved.6. Conclusion and RecommendationsThis is a summary of the main findings of the report, especially those that are for the reader/client.Conclusion should tell what the detailed findings mean for the reader/client in relation to the scope of the report or research objectives.The recommendations should list the action that you recommend should betaken based on these conclusions.6.1 CONCLUSIONIt is hoped this guide will benefit students in at least two ways. Firstly, to givea step by step method to report writing. Secondly, it is to be used as anexample of report writing.The process of report writing is obviously a long and complex one. Each step should be completed before moving on to the next one. Do NOT put off starting to research and write just because it is difficult.Make sure the information in the report is relevant to the topic and discusses the issues mentioned in the introduction.6.2 RECOMMENDATIONS+ Take one step at a time+ Do not waste time+ Use all the resources available+ Talk to your teacher if in doubt+ Start now7 BIBLIOGRAPHYThe bibliography is an alphabetical list of references used in preparation of the reportStudents should refer to their textbook for guidelines on how to correctlyreference information sources.Jordan, R.R (1990) Academic Writing Course, Collins ELT, London.Mangubhai, Francis and Pritchard, R (1996) English on Cue, USQ,Toowoomba..au/ecologicalfootprint/globalfootprint/index.aspAPPENDIXThe appendices section is for material that is relevant and is referred to in the report, but is too long or is not necessary to be included in the body of the report.Examples: QuestionnaireAppendices to be labelled: Appendix A, Appendix B etc.WRITING A BIBLIOGRAPHYTake careful note of the order in which the information appears below –alphabetically!

Book report 的规范格式
Book report 的规范格式：1. Introductory ParagraphThe first sentence should state for which instructor and class the book-report is being written.The second sentence should state the title of the book and the author's name.The third sentence should tell how many pages the book has and the name of the publisher.The fourth sentence can state basic bibliographic information about the book. Bibliographic information means not only the author and title but also what company published the book, what year it was published in and any other relevant information such as the edition and if the book has been translated, simplified or abridged. (see copyright page and the back of the title page.)The next sentence should state the reason(s) you decided to read this book. Why did you choose this particular book? Typical reasons might be:o You like the author.o You like this type of book (i.e. mystery, western, adventure or romance, etc.).o Someone recommended the book to you.o It was on a required reading list.o You liked the cover.These reasons do not have to be complex. Most people choose the books they read because they like the author or somebody recommended it to them. If you chose the book because you like the author, then state why you like that author.An optional sentence can be used if the cover (back cover) of the book gives you any additional information then add a sentence with that information.o Was the book a best seller?o Are there X million copies in print?o Did it win any major awards?2. Main Character(s) ParagraphThe first sentence of this paragraph should state who the main character or characters of the book are, and why they are important. Refer to this person or these persons as the Main Character or Main Characters.You will need at least a complex sentence for this, and probably more than one sentence.3. Other Characters ParagraphYou should compose at least one sentence for each of the other prominent or important characters in the book. State the name of each of the other important characters, and the key role that each one plays in the bookMost books have five or six prominent characters besides the main character, so simply listing each one and stating their role in the book will give you a good sized paragraph.4. Plot Summary ParagraphThis is perhaps the hardest paragraph to write in five sentences or so. If you have to write a bit more don't worry. Here are the main points to cover:o State the type of book (Mystery, Western, etc.).o What place or country was the book set in?o What time period was the book set in? (19th century, the present, ancient Rome, the 23rd century).o Other physical locations which are important, like: ships, airplanes, houses, or buildings.o Other notable attributes of the book. (Was it violent, scary, fast paced, etc.).o What is the main character trying to do?o What is the outcome of the book?o etc.Make sure you cover all of the major parts of the plot. You might have to go back through the book, chapter by chapter, and make a few notes.5. Personal Impressions and Conclusion ParagraphSimply talk about what you liked or did not like about the book. Use this paragraph as your conclusion. It should summarize your overall impressions of the book and bring the report to a close.o Start with a sentence that states that you are now writing a conclusion. (For example: "My final thoughts on 'A Fine Balance' are that it is a fascinating book but I am not entirely sure if I completely understood the thematic message of the book."o Restate your reasons why you liked and/or disliked the book using different words. o Write two sentences that talk about the books good points and weak points.o Write a sentence or two about what you learned from the book.o Close with a sentence that states whether you would recommend the book to others.Don't be afraid to give your own honest impressions of the book. After all, if you've read the book thoroughly, you are entitled to your own interpretation of it.Typically, your book report should not exceed two double-spaced pages, and it should be somewhere between 600 and 800 words in length.Research AssistanceThis site, which claims to be the best single research source online, maintains an inventory of more than 25,000 research reports on thousands of subjects; many of which are book summaries. Most are available for immediate download. If your subject isn't already in their archives, they will do custom research and writing for you. You can download existing papers and/or order custom research papers 24 Hours a Day!This is the Lakewood Public Library student guide to completing a book report... oris it? There are two closely related terms to be aware of here. Book Reports andBook Reviews. Many people use both terms in the same breath but there areimportant differences. A book report is completely factual. It includes informationon the author, title, place and year of publication as well as a summary of thecontent of the book. A book review, on the other hand, is much more personal. It isreally an expression of the reader's opinion of the work, or of specific aspects of thework. The review will probably include much of the same factual content as thereport, but it is the reader's personal opinions that are most important. For thepurposes of this guide we will be dealing with the book report. A short sectiontoward the end of this guide will give you some ideas for book reviews.The steps to follow for your book report are:Choosing Your BookReading the BookThe Outline of Your ReportThe Draft and the Final ReportChoosing Your BookPerhaps your teacher has assigned a specific book for you to read. If this is the case you can skip this section and move on to READING THE BOOK. If you are able to pick the book of your choice you must first decide whether you want to read fiction or non-fiction. Do you love reading history books, or do you prefer novel reading? This is an important question to ask yourself. If you do a book report on a book which you dislike several problems arise. Firstly, you are not going to enjoy writing a report on such a book. Secondly, your report is going to be almost entirely negative. Whether this is an accurate reflection of the book or not the reader of your report will probably be turned off by your attitude. There is nothing wrong with selective criticism, but a book report which criticizes the author and his work at every turn is self defeating. So, choose your book carefully. The result will be more pleasureable, both for yourself and for whoever reads your report.Here are some links to book report pages on the Internet. You should find some good ideas about the type of book you want to read on these pages. Many of the reports are very simply constructed. However, they should give you some ideas both about the types of book you might want to read, as well as how you might want to construct your report.•Essay Depot-Book Reports•Book Adventure•CLP Teen Reads•Just for Kids Who Love Books•Reading the BookIn the hustle and bustle of modern everyday life the simple pleasure of reading a good book is often forgotten. There is nothing easier yet more satisfying than sitting down in a favorite place to read. Find somewhere quiet and private where you are unlikely to be disturbed. Try to pick the place where you can be transported into the world of the book with a minimum of distraction. It is fine to read your book in asingle sitting, or you can read it over a number of days. Know your limitations here. Do not make yourself read a set number of pages or chapters every day. This can make your reading a chore. Read as much as you are comfortable with and then put the book down until you are ready to start again. Mark where you stopped with a bookmark or a slip of paper. Try not to let a long time elapse between readings. A day or two, at most, is probably about right.If you have a cheap personal copy of the book you are reading you might want to mark parts of the text which interest you. Do this in pencil. A word of warning here! Marking books is not a good habit to get into. During the course of your educational career you will meet many professional book lovers who will take a dim view of you marking books which are not your own. Talk to any college librarian if you want to hear a long history of irretrievably damaged books! A better idea than marking your book is to keep a notebook beside you so that you can write brief notes and page numbers you might want to come back to. You could do this during a second reading. This way you can read your book right through uninterrupted.How many times should you read the book? This is a personal choice. Obviously you have to read it cover to cover at least once. Twice is recommended. If you really love the book you may find yourself reading it a third or even a fourth time. Many people have a favorite book which they read over and over again the way that you might watch a favorite movie. If you are lucky enough to find such a book the actual writing of your report will be more of a pleasure than a burden.The Outline of Your ReportYou have read your book. Your next step will be to organize what you are going to say about it in your report. Writing the basic elements down in an outline format will help you to organize your thoughts.What will you include in the outline? Follow whatever instructions your teacher has given you. If you are on your own, however, the following guidelines should help.Let's assume for the moment that you've chosen a work of fiction. We'll start with a description of the book. The description should include such elements as:1.The setting—where does the story take place? Is it a real place or animaginary one? If the author does not tell you exactly where the storyis set, what can you tell about it from the way it is described?2.The time period—is the story set in the present day or in an earlier timeperiod? Perhaps it is even set in the future! Let your reader know.3.The main character(s)—who is the story mostly about? Give a briefdescription. Often, one character can be singled out as the main character,but some books will have more than one.4.The plot—what happens to the main character? WARNING! Be carefulhere. Do not fall into the boring trap of reporting every single thing thathappens in the story. Pick only the most important events. Here are somehints on how to do that. First, explain the situation of the main character asthe story opens. Next, identify the basic plot element of the story--is themain character trying to achieve something or overcome a particularproblem? Thirdly, describe a few of the more important things that happento the main character as he/she works toward that goal or solution. Finally,you might hint at the story's conclusion without completely giving awaythe ending.The four points above deal with the report aspect of your work. For the final section of your outline, give your reader a sense of the impression the book made upon you. Ask yourself what the author was trying to achieve and whether or not he achieved it with you. What larger idea does the story illustrate? How does it do that? How did you feel about the author's style of writing, the setting, or the mood of the novel. You do not have to limit yourself to these areas. Pick something which caught your attention, and let your reader know your personal response to whatever it was.What about non-fiction?If given the option, you might have chosen a non-fiction biography, history, or a factual text on another subject of interest to you. In that case, the descriptive section of your report should include:1.subject—an initial statement on the general subject of the book.2.summary—your summary of what the author had to say about the subject.Again, pick only the most important points to discuss. For a biography,describe some of the key events in the person's life. For a history or othersubject, describe some of the main points made about the subject. If thebook is divided into different chapters, you can often use those divisions asa guide to what the main points are.After you've described your book, express some of your thoughts about what you've read. What seemed to be the author's main reason for writing the book? What was the most interesting thing you learned about the book's subject? Why did you find it interesting? You might also give your opinion on how the subject was presented. Did the author hold your interest?Remember! Whether you are writing about fiction or non-fiction you must be sure to recognize the main idea or ideas in the book. So be sure that you have a good understanding of it before you begin writing. Keep the book beside you while youare writing your report so that you can refer to it when necessary.For more information about outlines take a look at our studentguide to Research Paper - Making an OutlineThe Draft and the Final ReportThe DraftYour draft will be a fleshing out of the ideas from your outline. Don't worry about being too neat as noone else will be reading this part of your work. You can write additional notes in the margins but try to make sure that, when you come back to write your final report, you can understand the exact order of your material.The Final ReportIf you have followed the advice on these pages you should be ready to write your final report. Thoroughly familiarize yourself with your draft before you put pen to paper or fingers to keyboard. All of your revisions should have been made on your draft so your job now is to make sure that your presentation is correct. Check your grammar and your spelling. Try to use a word processor if possible. Typed reports look better than handwritten ones. They are easier for your teacher to read and they are easier for you to correct. Cutting and pasting your work can be a real bonus here.These pages are a very basic guide to constructing a book report. It is strongly recommended that you supplement what you have learned here by looking below at some of the Library's holdings of books on book reports and book reviews.Study Guide AidsYou might also want to quickly review the book you have read by referring to a couple of the series which are available at the library. Masterplots and Cliffs Notes provide quick summaries of classic texts. They are particularly useful when you are trying to make sense of a complicated plot or a lengthy list of characters.For more coverage of classic works and mostly adult level material, try these online sources:ShmoopSparkNotesClassicNotes by GradeSaverNovelGuideLPL tip: Cliffs Notes are available in the circulating collection onthe second floor while Masterplots can be found in the Referencecollection.A word of warning here. These resources should only be used to reinforce what you have learned while reading your book. You cannot write a good book report without reading the book itself! Don't rely completely on Masterplots or Cliff Notes. You deny yourself the pleasure of reading, and your teacher will know!A Final Note - Get as much information as you can from yourteacher before attempting your own report. Find out exactly whathe/she expects you to do. Finally, enjoy yourself. As we saidearlier this need not be a chore. Book reporting can be one of themost enjoyable types of assignment and it can really help todevelop your critical faculties. We hope that this short guidegoes some way towards helping you in your endeavors.Book ResourcesAuthor: Sutherland, Zena.Title: The Best in Children's Books: The University of Chicago Guide to Children's Literature, 1985-1990.Publisher: Chicago: University of Chicago Press, 1991.Location: MAIN JUVENILE: j028.52 Sutherland.Author: Colligan, Louise.Title: Scholastic A+ Junior Guide to Book Reports.Publisher: New York, N.Y. : Scholastic, c1989.Location: MAIN JUVENILE: j808.04 242 : MADISON JUVENILE: j808.04 242 Author: Horning, Kathleen T.Title: From Cover To Cover: Evaluating and Reviewing Children's Books.Publisher: New York: HarperCollins, c1987Location: MAIN JUVENILE: j028.162 HorningAuthor: Teitelbaum, Harry.Title: How To Write Book Reports.Publisher: New York: Monarch Press, 1982, 1975.Location: MAIN ADULT: 808 857Author: James, Elizabeth.Title: How To Write Your Best Book Report.Publisher: New York: Lothrop, Lee & Shepard Books, c1986.Location: MAIN JUVENILE: j372.623 514Author: Allen, Eliot D.Title: A Short Guide To Writing a Critical Review.Publisher: Deland, Fla.: Everett/Edwards, c1975, 1978 printing.Location: MAIN ADULT: 808.066028 114读书报告是一种非常有用的实用体裁，它可以帮助我们记录复习学过的知识并提高我们的概括能力、综合能力、分析能力和评判能力。

About a Concise Summary
The summary should not include details or examples that appear in the article / work, unless a general concept cannot be understood without an illustration of what is meant, of course, the summary should be written in your own words to demonstrate that you have understood the article / work. You should never copy sentences directly from your reading. Because a summary is a miniature version of the original reading, you should not express your opinion about the subject matter. You will have the opportunity to do this in the Critique section.

However, Boxtel, a man living in the next door, also has a crush on the money. He then supervises every movement of Cornelius secretly for fear that Cornelius may grow better tulips than his own. Besides this, he also carries out many surreptitious activities to destroy Cornelius’tulips by all means. Once a while, he accuses Cornelius of harbouring letters that might be harmful to the government so that Cornelius is sent to the prison without giving provocation. This nearly causes him to death. Even here, Cornelius manages togrow tulips with the help of Rosa, the daughter of the prison-keeper. But unfortunately, their first black tulip is stolen byBoxtel. It’s Rosa who proves the truth and saves Coenelius byherself!It’s a happy ending in this novel as it says “Those who have suffered much, have a right to be happy.” This quotation brings the whole story to an end and will certainly motivate readers to go on.Rosa herself will remain as quite a good example, too.Besides, “justice could defeat evil however difficult it is and whatever the process would be” can be easily seen as the author’sdeep philosophy towards life.By reading it, the reader can both enjoy the plots and bestimulated!Sample 2A Book Report of The Black TulipBy Huang Xin, Talents Class, XX I have recently read the simplified version of The Black Tulip published by Shanghai Translation Press. This novel was written by the distinguished French writer Alexandre Dumas Pere, the pioneer of the Romanticism Literature Movement in France. He was so popular that his works had been translated into several languagesand welcomed by readers all over the world.This novel took 17th century Dutch bourgeois revolutionary period of intense political struggle and the turbulent life as itsbackground.This gist of the story is as follows. The leading role Cornelius is a young doctor who completely doesn’t inquire about politics. He loves growing tulips and is trying to cultivate a black tulip without any other color on it at all. In order to obtain the considerable bonus offered by the government to the first man whocultivates the very kind of black tulip, Boxtel, Cornelius’ neighbor, tries to destroy and steal the bulbs of Cornelius, even kill him. Fortunately, Cornelius in the prison gets acquainted with the prison-keeper’s daughter Rosa and they fall in love. Under Rosa’s help, Cornelius realized hisdream and achieves happiness at last.It’s firmly believed by some people that when you become rich and successful, happiness will naturally follow. After reading this novel, I believe that nothing is further from the truth. To my mind, the secret to happiness lies in your successful work, in your contribution towards others’ happiness and in your wealth you haveearned through your own honest efforts.Firstly, in order to obtain happiness, you should achieve your successful work, in order to achieve your successful work, you篇二：英语读书报告要求及范文(1)英语读书报告格式要求范文There is no standard form for a book report.

How to Write a Book ReportWriting a book report is an essential skill for students at all academic levels. It is an effective way to demonstrate an understanding of the key aspects and themes of a book. While the format may vary from teacher to teacher, certain elements must be included.The following guidelines will help you write an impressive book report.1.Read the Book CarefullyThe first step to writing a good book report is to read the book carefully.

This will help you remember key points and will serve as a reference when writing the report.3.Choose the Right FormatDepending on your teacher’s requirements, choose the format that suits your writing style. Usually, book reports are written in the third person, but some teachers may allow a first-person narrative.4.Start With an IntroductionAn introduction is an essential component of a good book report. It should introduce the author, title, and genre of the book. Briefly, discuss the book’s background, including when it was published and who the target audience is.5.Summarize the PlotProvide a brief summary of the main events in the book. Make sure to include the setting, the main characters, and the conflict. Be concise and focus on the most critical aspects of the story.6.Discuss the ThemeIn this section, analyze the themes of the book. Talk about how they relate to the plot, characters, or setting. Provide examples that support your analysis and explain how they contribute to the overall story.7.Discuss the CharactersCharacters are a crucial element of any book.

How to write a bookreport
Perhaps your teacher has assigned a specific book for you to read. If you are able to pick the book of your choice you must first decide whether you want to read fiction or non-fiction. Do you love reading history books, or do you prefer novel reading? This is an important question to ask yourself. If you do a book report on a book which you dislike several problems arise. Firstly, you are not going to enjoy writing a report on such a book. Secondly, your report is going to be almost entirely negative. Whether this is an accurate reflection of the book or not the reader of your report will probably be turned off by your attitude. There is nothing wrong with selective criticism, but a book report which criticizes the author and his work at every turn is self defeating. So, choose your book carefully. The result will be more pleasureable, both for yourself and for whoever reads your report.
如何阅读一本书的读书报告范文
如何阅读一本书的读书报告范文英文回答：When reading a book report, I usually start by looking at the summary or the main points of the report. This gives me a general idea of what the book is about and what the author's main arguments or themes are. I pay attention to the structure of the report, such as how the information is organized and if there are any key points that are highlighted.Next, I like to read the analysis and interpretation sections of the report. This is where the reader delves deeper into the themes, characters, and writing style of the book. I look for insights and critical thinking that help me understand the book on a deeper level. For example, if the report discusses the symbolism in a novel, I pay attention to how the symbols are interpreted and how they contribute to the overall meaning of the story.I also pay attention to any personal reflections or reactions the writer includes in the report. I find it interesting to see how different readers respond to the same book. For instance, if the report mentions that the writer was moved by a particular scene in the book, I tryto imagine myself in that moment and think about how Iwould have reacted.In conclusion, reading a book report is not just about understanding the content of the book, but also aboutseeing it through the eyes of another reader. It helps me gain new perspectives and insights that I may not have considered on my own.中文回答：阅读一本读书报告时，我通常会先看摘要或主要观点。

如何写读书报告
Teachers love to assign book reports. Did you ever wonder why? Sure, you could think of it as a cruel attempt to force you to read. But it might be a little more than that!Your teacher's goal is to broaden your understanding of the world and society. That is what good books do!What Is Included in a Book Report?Book report content will vary according to grade level. Middlegrade-level book reports will provide the basic details about a book, a summary of the plot, and some comments regarding the student's opinions and impressions.As students mature and advance, the book reports should include a little more.As students enter high school and higher grades, they will start to explain and explore the messages that are contained inbooks--messages about life and its important experiences. Students will begin to share their own opinions about these messages (themes) contained in books.Your Book Report IntroductionThe introduction segment of your book report provides an opportunity to make a good first impression!You should try to write a strong introductory sentence that grabs your reader's attention. Somewhere in your first paragraph, you should also state the book's title (italicized), the topic, and the author's name.High school-level papers should include publication information as well as brief statements about the book's angle, the genre, the theme, and a hint about the writer's feelings in the introduction.First Paragraph Example: Middle School Level:The Red Badge of Courage, by Stephen Crane, is a book about a young man growing up during the Civil War. Henry Fleming is the main character of the book. As Henry watches and experiences the tragic events of the war, he grows up and changes his attitudes aboutlife.First Paragraph Example: High School Level:Can you identify one experience that changed your entire view of the world around you? Henry Fleming, the main character in The Red Badge of Courage, begins his life-changing adventure as a naive young man, eager to experience the glory of war. He soon faces the truth about life, war, and his own self-identity on the battlefield, however. The Red Badge of Courage, by Stephen Crane, is a coming of age novel, published by D. Appleton and Company in 1895, about thirty years after the Civil War ended. In this book, the author reveals the ugliness of war, and examines its relationship to the pain of growing up.BodyBefore you get started on the body of the report, take a few minutes to jot down some helpful information by considering the following points.Did you enjoy the book?Was it well written?What was the genre?(fiction) Which characters play important roles that relate to the overall theme?Did you notice reoccurring symbols?Is this book a part of a series?(nonfiction) Can you identify the writer's thesis?What is the writing style?Did you notice a tone?Was there an obvious slant or bias?In the body of your book report, you will use your notes to guide you through an extended summary of the book. You will weave your own thoughts and impressions into the plot summary.ConclusionAs you lead to your final paragraph, consider some additional impressions and opinions:Was the ending satisfactory (for fiction)?Was the thesis supported by strong evidence (for non-ficton)? What interesting or notable facts do you know about the author? Would you recommend this book?Conclude your report with a paragraph or two that covers these additional points. Some teachers prefer that you re-state the name and author of the book in the concluding paragraph. As always, consult your specific assignment guide.Book reports can help learners improve their reading comprehension and enhance their ability to analyze the story and the characters. Generally speaking, a book report is usually composed of three major parts. They are:information about the writer (his name, the books he has published, the years of his birth and death, the publisher of the book)a summary of the book (the story and main characters)some comments on the book (personal interpretation of the meaning of the book)When giving the information about the writer, the learner writershould include some historical and social background to which the book is related. To make things clear, the learner writer should read some reference materials, such as biographies of the writer and histories of the period in which the book was written.A book report should contain a summary of the book under discussion. The summary should be concise, clear and easy to understand. The learner writer should make sure that the summary be subjective and center on the major theme of the book. As for the tense of the book report, it depends on the subject matter of the book. If it is a novel or a play or a science fiction, the present tense is more appropriate while the past tense is required for nonfiction such as history books.The third part and also the most important part of a book report is the comment. In this part, the learner writer's job is to evaluate the book according to his or her own personal interpretation and discuss the merits (优点) and demerits (缺点) of the book, the social and/or historical significance of the book. If the learner writer is competent enough to discuss the writing style of the author, he or she should feel free to do so._________________A SampleSons and Lovers is a novel written by David Herbert Lawrence and it was first published in 1913 in London by Wyman & Sons.D.

英文读后感的格式模板
英文读后感的格式模板When we read an English book or story, it's really fun to write a reading report about it. Here is how we can do it in a simple way that all of us kids can understand.1. Introduction.At the beginning, we should say what the book is called. For example, I read a book named "The Little Prince". It's a very famous book. Then we can talk a little bit about the author. The author of "The Little Prince" is Antoine de Saint - Exupéry. He must be a very imaginative person because he wrote such a wonderful story.In this part, we can also say why we chose to read this book. I chose "The Little Prince" because my teacher told us it was a very special book. She said it was full of deep thoughts but also easy to understand. And when I saw the cover of the book, it had a cute little prince on it. That made me really want to read it.2. Summary of the Book.Next, we need to tell what the book is about. In "The Little Prince", the little prince comes from a very small planet. He travels to different planets and meets all kinds of strange people. There is a king who only likes to give orders but no one really listens to him. There is also a very vain man who only likes to be praised all the time.On Earth, the little prince meets a fox. The fox tells him that "One sees clearly only with the heart. Anything essential is invisible to the eyes." This is such a beautiful and important sentence in the book. The little prince also meets a pilot whose plane has crashed in the desert.They become friends and the little prince tells the pilot about his adventures.3. My Favorite Part.Now, we can talk about our favorite part of the book. My favorite part is when the little prince meets the fox. The way they talk to each other is so warm. The fox asks the little prince to tame him. It's like a very special friendship. The fox says that if the little prince tames him, the wheat fields will remind the fox of the little prince's golden hair. It makes me feel that friendship can be so magical.I also like the pictures in the book. They are simple but very vivid. They make me feel like I am really in the story, following the little prince on his journey.4. What I Learned from the Book.After that, we should say what we learned from the book. From "TheLittle Prince", I learned that we should look at things with our heart. Not all important things can be seen by our eyes. For example, love and friendship are very important, but we can't touch them like we touch a toy or a book. But we can feel them in our heart.Also, I learned that we should be kind to others. Just like the little prince, he is always polite and curious about the people he meets. He doesn't judge them too quickly.5. Conclusion.Finally, we can end our reading report. We can say if we would recommend this book to others. I would definitely recommend "The Little Prince" to all my friends. It's a book that can make you laugh and alsomake you think. It's like a little treasure that you can keep in your heart forever.So, this is how we can write an English reading report. It's not too hard, right? As long as we really understand the book and write down our true feelings, it will be a great reading report.。
How_to_Write_a_Reading_Report_of_a_Book
How to Write a Reading Report of a BookWriting reading reports can help learners improve their reading comprehension(理解) and enhance（提高）their ability to analyze the story and the characters. Generally speaking, a book report is usually composed（组成）of three major parts.They are:1. Information about the writer (his name, the years of his birth and death, the books he has published, comments on him and his books, etc.)2. A summary（概要）of the book (the story and main characters)3.“My favorite…”(what impresses the learner writer most)4.Some comments（评论）on the book (personal interpretation of the meaning of the book)When giving the information about the writer, the learner writer should include some historical and social background to which the book is related. To make things clear, the learner writer should read some reference（参考）materials, such as biographies（传记）of the writer and histories of the period in which the book was written.A reading report should contain a summary of the book under discussion. The summary should be concise, clear and easy to understand. Try to tell the main points/plots in a short paragraph of 8-10 sentences. (Note: Do not copy or translate!) The learner writer should make sure that the summary be subjective （主观）and center on the major theme of the book. As for the tense（时态）of the book report, it depends on the subject（主题）matter of the book. If it is a novel or a play or a science fiction, the present tense is more appropriate while the past tense is required for nonfiction such as history books.The third part and also the most important part of a reading report is what the book impresses the learner writer most. It is better to focus on one matter: theme, character, scene, plot, or language.At last, in comment（评论）part, the learner writer's job is to evaluate thebook according to his or her own personal interpretation（解释）and discuss the merits (优点) and demerits (缺点) of the book, the social and/or historical significance of the book. If the learner writer is competent enough to discuss the writing style of the author, he or she should feel free to do so. Don’t be too simple as to say: “It’s really a good book”, or “The hero of the novel is a very good man”.Sample:(Information about the author)The book In Contempt was written by Christopher A. Darden. Chris Darden is famous for being one of the prosecuting attorneys in the court case The People vs. Simpson. He has worked hard his whole life to reach the status he has now achieved. He proved to America that even though he wasn't a high-priced private lawyer that he could present a well-thought out and planned case under the tremendous pressure he and the other prosecutors had to endure during the Simpson case.(Summary)As one may expect, the majority of this book is taken up with the Simpson case. Chapter one details his life from birth, his childhood in a working class district of Richmond, California and his becoming a district attorney of Los Angeles in 1981. Chapters two and three mostly consist of stories of him and his brother, Michael, stealing from local stores or his brothers’ drug deals. When Michael hit his mid-teens he started selling marijuana off the front porch of the house and Chris was his lookout. In return, he was told that he would be cut in on the action but never was. No matter what, Michael always told Chris never to use drugs. Throughout the book Chris Darden refers to his brother as a good role model for him no matter what he did. (“My favorite…” : can be shorter and more focused )I found this book to be very well thought out and well written. Most people would assume that this book was written with the intentions of making a quick-buck off the misfortune of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman. I, however, do not believe this to be true. The way that the author speaks of the victims in the book and the way he spoke of them before, and after the trial shows that he really cared about the lives of these people that he didn't even know. He even went as far as to say in the book that this was the first case that affected him personally and emotionally.This book is funny and at other times the mood is more serious. The few chapters in the beginning were the funny ones. In these chapters he writes about his childhood and works his way forward to when he starts to work in the District Attorney's Office. Specifically he tells about how he was caught stealing a Hostess Fruit pie at the corner store, sneaking crackers from his house pantry, and being teased about having false teeth as a child. As he writes and talks about when he gets older the mood changes and gets more serious.He writes a lot about his brother who was a big influence on him when he was young. Darden retells stories of how he and his brother, Michael, would salvage old, broken radios from the trash and repair them and then sit on Saturday nights listening to the local R and B station. His brother would always comment on how the Temptations were the best band ever. Also, he tells of the time when his brother was smoking a joint in their bedroom when their father came bursting into the room. Thinking quickly, Chris' brother swallowed the still lit joint. His father smelled the marijuana but never found any evidence of the joint.As he tells about his childhood, he remembers how his grandmother would ask him what he wanted to be when he grew up and as far back as he could remember he would say that he wanted to be a lawyer. Christopher Darden grew up like a lot of black families of that time period, poor. They did have enough money to buy a 30,000 house and they always had a pantry full of food. Not many people from his neighborhood ever made much of themselves but he always believed in himself and his grandmother always believed that he could do anything that he put his mind to. She was the only person that believed he could be a lawyer and always introduced him as a future lawyer.In high school Chris followed in his brother's footsteps and joined the track team. This would be his ticket to a scholarship at Berkeley University, and the start to his law career. After completing college, he applied for a job in the District Attorney's Office, and surprisingly got the job at the Los Angeles District Attorney's Office in 1981. Through the years, he worked his way up through the ranks of the D. A. s' Office and became a very prominent lawyer. He worked for 14 years before the Simpson case was brought before him. He never expected to work the case but sometimes strange things happen. He worked hard to prove that Simpson was guilty but justice was never found.Out of the 20 murder cases that Darden had worked, the Simpson case was the only one he lost. After he lost, he vowed never to work in law again.(Conclusion/ comments)I didn't find this book particularly useful, but it was a very good book to read and it gave me more insight as to what has happened in Chris Darden's life and what he went through during the Simpson case. When I got the book I approached it like most students do when they have a book report to write. I didn't want to read the book but had to in order to get a good grade. As I started to read the first chapter, which was about the Simpson case I realized that the book wasn't just the boring drivel you would expect from a lawyer. It was intelligently written and had amusing stories from his childhood and fraternity days. Although I didn't want to read it' it wasn't as bad as I had expected, and I found it to be enjoyable and informative.。

If you chose the book because you like the author, then state why you like that author.An optional sentence can be used if the cover (back cover) of the book gives you any additional information then add a sentence with that information.o Was the book a best seller?o Are there X million copies in print?o Did it win any major awards?2. Main Character(s) ParagraphThe first sentence of this paragraph should state who the main character or characters of the book are, and why they are important. Refer to this person or these persons as the Main Character or Main Characters.You will need at least a complex sentence for this, and probably more than one sentence.3. Other Characters ParagraphYou should compose at least one sentence for each of the other prominent or important characters in the book. State the name of each of the other important characters, and the key role that each one plays in the bookMost books have five or six prominent characters besides the main character, so simply listing each one and stating their role in the book will give you a good sized paragraph.4. Plot Summary ParagraphThis is perhaps the hardest paragraph to write in five sentences or so. If you have to write a bit more don't worry. Here are the main points to cover:o State the type of book (Mystery, Western, etc.).o What place or country was the book set in?o What time period was the book set in? (19th century, the present, ancient Rome, the 23rd century).o Other physical locations which are important, like: ships, airplanes, houses, or buildings.o Other notable attributes of the book. (Was it violent, scary, fast paced, etc.).o What is the main character trying to do?o What is the outcome of the book?o etc.Make sure you cover all of the major parts of the plot. You might have to go back through the book, chapter by chapter, and make a few notes.5. Personal Impressions and Conclusion ParagraphSimply talk about what you liked or did not like about the book. Use this paragraph as your conclusion. It should summarize your overall impressions of the book and bring the report to a close.o Start with a sentence that states that you are now writing a conclusion. (For example: "My final thoughts on 'A Fine Balance' are that it is a fascinating book but I am not entirely sure if I completely understood the thematic message of the book."o Restate your reasons why you liked and/or disliked the book using different words. o Write two sentences that talk about the books good points and weak points.o Write a sentence or two about what you learned from the book.o Close with a sentence that states whether you would recommend the book to others. Don't be afraid to give your own honest impressions of the book. After all, if you've read the book thoroughly, you are entitled to your own interpretation of it. Typically, your book report should not exceed two double-spaced pages, and it should be somewhere between 600 and 800 words in length.Research AssistanceThis site, which claims to be the best single research source online, maintains an inventory of more than 25,000 research reports on thousands of subjects; many of which are book summaries.

There are two closely related terms to be aware of here. Book Reports andBook Reviews. Many people use both terms in the same breath but there areimportant differences. A book report is completely factual. It includes informationon the author, title, place and year of publication as well as a summary of thecontent of the book. A book review, on the other hand, is much more personal. It isreally an expression of the reader's opinion of the work, or of specific aspects of thework. The review will probably include much of the same factual content as thereport, but it is the reader's personal opinions that are most important. For thepurposes of this guide we will be dealing with the book report. A short sectiontoward the end of this guide will give you some ideas for book reviews.The steps to follow for your book report are:Choosing Your BookReading the BookThe Outline of Your ReportThe Draft and the Final ReportChoosing Your BookPerhaps your teacher has assigned a specific book for you to read. If this is the case you can skip this section and move on to READING THE BOOK. If you are able to pick the book of your choice you must first decide whether you want to read fiction or non-fiction. Do you love reading history books, or do you prefer novel reading? This is an important question to ask yourself. If you do a book report on a book which you dislike several problems arise. Firstly, you are not going to enjoy writing a report on such a book. Secondly, your report is going to be almost entirely negative. Whether this is an accurate reflection of the book or not the reader of your report will probably be turned off by your attitude. There is nothing wrong with selective criticis m, but a book report which criticizes the author and his work at every turn is self defeating. So, choose your book carefully. The result will be more pleasureable, both for yourself and for whoever reads your report.Here are some links to book report pages on the Internet. You should find some good ideas about the type of book you want to read on these pages. Many of the reports are very simply constructed. However, they should give you some ideas both about the types of book you might want to read, as well as how you migh t want to construct your report.∙Essay Depot-Book Reports∙Book Adventure∙CLP Teen Reads∙Just for Kids Who Love Books∙Reading the BookIn the hustle and bustle of modern everyday life the simple pleasure of reading a good book is often forgotten. There is nothing easier yet more satisfying than sitting down in a favorite place to read. Find somewhere quiet and private where you are unlikely to be disturbed. Try to pick the place where you can be transported into the world of the book with a minimum of distraction. It is fine to read your book in asingle sitting, or you can read it over a number of days. Know your limitations here. Do not make yourself read a set number of pages or chapters every day. This can make your reading a chore. Read as much as you are comfortable with and then put the book down until you are ready to start again. Mark where you stopped with a bookmark or a slip of paper. Try not to let a long time elapse between readings. A day or two, at most, is probably about right.If you have a cheap personal copy of the book you are reading you might want to mark parts of the text which interest you. Do this in pencil. A word of warning here! Marking books is not a good habit to get into. During the course of your educational career you will meet many professional book lovers who will take a dim view of you marking books which are not your own. Talk to any college librarian if you want to hear a long history of irretrievably damaged books! A better idea than marking your book is to keep a notebook beside you so that you can write brief notes and page numbers you might want to come back to. You could do this during a second reading. This way you can read your book right through uninterrupted.How many times should you read the book? This is a personal choice. Obviously you have to read it cover to cover at least once. Twice is recommended. If you really love the book you may find yourself reading it a third or even a fourth time. Many people have a favorite book which they read over and over again the way that you might watch a favorite movie. If you are lucky enough to find such a book the actual writing of your report will be more of a pleasure than a burden.The Outline of Your ReportYou have read your book. Your next step will be to organize what you are going to say about it in your report. Writing the basic elements down in an outline format will help you to organize your thoughts.What will you include in the outline? Follow whatever instructions your teacher has given you. If you are on your own, however, the following guidelines should help.Let's assume for the moment that you've chosen a work of fiction. We'll start with a description of the book. The description should include such elements as:1.The setting—where does the story take place? Is it a real place or animaginary one? If the author does not tell you exactly where the storyis set, what can you tell about it from the way it is described?2.The time period—is the story set in the present day or in an earlier timeperiod? Perhaps it is even set in the future! Let your reader know.3.The main character(s)—who is the story mostly about? Give a briefdescription. Often, one character can be singled out as the main character,but some books will have more than one.4.The plot—what happens to the main character? WARNING! Be carefulhere. Do not fall into the boring trap of reporting every single thing thathappens in the story. Pick only the most important events. Here are somehints on how to do that. First, explain the situation of the main character asthe story opens. Next, identify the basic plot element of the story--is themain character trying to achieve something or overcome a particularproblem? Thirdly, describe a few of the more important things that happento the main character as he/she works toward that goal or solution. Finally,you might hint at the story's conclusion without completely giving awaythe ending.The four points above deal with the report aspect of your work. For the final section of your outline, give your reader a sense of the impression the book made upon you. Ask yourself what the author was trying to achieve and whether or not he achieved it with you. What larger idea does the story illustrate? How does it do that? How did you feel about the author's style of writing, the setting, or the mood of the novel. You do not have to limit yourself to these areas. Pick something which caught your attention, and let your reader know your personal response to whatever it was.What about non-fiction?If given the option, you might have chosen a non-fiction biography, history, or a factual text on another subject of interest to you. In that case, the descriptive section of your report should include:1.subject—an initial statement on the general subject of the book.2.summary—your summary of what the author had to say about the subject.Again, pick only the most important points to discuss. For a biography,describe some of the key events in the person's life. For a history or othersubject, describe some of the main points made about the subject. If thebook is divided into different chapters, you can often use those divisions asa guide to what the main points are.After you've described your book, express some of your thoughts about what you've read. What seemed to be the author's main reason for writing the book? What was the most interesting thing you learned about the book's subject? Why did you find it interesting? You might also give your opinion on how the subject was presented. Did the author hold your interest?Remember! Whether you are writing about fiction or non-fiction you must be sure to recognize the main idea or ideas in the book. So be sure that you have a good understanding of it before you begin writing.
