我第一次用英语作值日报告
【内容提示】
一年前，你是高一年级学生。有一天，英语老师让你们从那天开始轮流用英语作值日报告。你们都怕讲不好，老师鼓励说这是你们练习说英语的好机会，不用害怕。轮你作报告的一天到来了，你有些紧张。开始，把该说的话都忘了，不敢看同学。后来，你突然发现自己说错了什么，又把下句给忘了。但是，同学们似乎没有发现你的错误，仍旧注意听你讲。老师平静地看着你。你从老师慈祥的脸上得到了鼓励。你沉默了几秒钟后接着往下讲，心跳得更厉害了，脸也红了。你讲的笑话并不长，但你却觉得用了好长时间才讲完。你没听见老师怎么评价，只听见有些男女同学窃窃私语：“她说了些什么呀？”这是你永远难忘的一次值日报告。

my first english duty report
郭芸芬
i still remember the day when i did my first english duty report a year ago. i was then a student of senior i. one day, the english teacher told us that from then on we would make a duty report in english. someone made faces and many cried out, “oh! what an idea!”
“why, you are so afraid of it!”the teacher was surprised.
“our english is so poor!”some of us shouted. we are afraid we can'tdo it well.
“that is a good chance to practise your spoken english. don't worry about it. have a try,”the teacher said encouragingly. we became silent at once.
the day came when it was my turn to make a duty report. the girl who sat beside me kidded① me, “are you afraid? oh, you look a little nervous.”i nudged② at her, then slowly got up from my seat and went to the front of the classroom. as a shy girl, not accustomed to speak in public, i felt my heart beat fast.

now i was standing on the platform . i took a look at my classmates and then plucked up③ my courage to speak up. the teacher stood beside me, smiling. i wanted to tell an english joke but i was so nervous that i forgot to begin with“it's my turn to give you a duty report.”i didn't dare to look straight at my classmates, but kept looking at the wall or the ceiling. i felt that they were staring at me.
suddenly i found i had made some mistakes, which made me forget what the next sentence should be . but the classmates were still listening to me attentively④.they seemed not to have noticed the mistakes. they were all waiting for me to go on with my report . the teacher looked at me calmly. from his kind face i could see that he was encouraging me to go on. having stood in silence for a few seconds, i found the next sentence. i continued. my heart was beating faster now and my face turning red. the joke was not long, but it took me quite some time before i could finish it.as soon as i finished speaking, i ran to my seat and dropped my head on the desk. i could not hear what the teacher said. but i clearly heard some boys and girls whispering, “what did she say?”

that was my first duty report. when i recall it, i can't help laughing. i will never forget it.
