关于个人介绍写作的建议
•Use 'come from' for the city or country where you were born. Use 'live' for the city where you currently live.
•Use the present simple tense to explain what you do every day.
•Use 'have' or 'have got' to speak about your children, pets, etc.
•Use 'a' the first time you mention something. For example, I live in a house. Then use 'the' after the first time you write about it. For example, I live in a house. The house is in Seattle.
•Remember to use he, his, him for boys and men and she, her, her for girls and women. Use 'our' when speaking about the whole family.
•Use 'like doing' when speaking about hobbies.
介绍你出生的城市或国家时，要用come from。介绍你现在居住的城市时，要用live。
用一般现在时来介绍你的日常生活。
用have或have got来介绍你的孩子、宠物等等。
第一次提及的事物前面，用a。例如，I live in a house.再次提到就用the.例如，I live in a house. The house is in Seattle.
记住，在指代男孩子或男人时，用he、his和him，指代女孩子或女人时，用she、her和her。在指代整个家庭时，用our。

Tips for Writing a Personal Description about a Friend
介绍朋友的技巧
•Remember to add 's' to the present simple tense when writing about other people.
•In the present simple tense, 'doesn't' takes the 's' in the negative form. Remember to use 'doesn't + verb' in the negative.
•Use sometimes, often, never, etc. before the main verb in a sentence.
•Remember to use he, his, him for boys and men and she, her, her for girls and women.
•Use 'enjoys doing' when speaking about hobbies. It's okay to connect a few verbs using commas, but place 'and' before the final verb in the list when speaking about someone's hobbies. For example, She enjoys playing tennis, swimming and riding horses.
记住在介绍别人的时候，一般现在时里要加上s。
在一般现在时里，否定形式中的doesn’t要带上s。记住，在否定句中使用doesn’t+动词。
在一个句子中，在主动词前使用sometimes、often、never等词。
记住，在指代男孩子或男人时，用he、his和him，指代女孩子或女人时，用she、her和her。
在介绍别人的爱好时，使用enjoy doing。你可以用逗号将几个动词连起来，但最后一个词语前就要用and。例如，She enjoys playing tennis, swimming and riding horses.
