“点评：”

这是一篇根据图示内容展开的说明文。这种题型常考，应在平时加以训练，掌握表达技巧。

这是一篇口头介绍校园情况的文章，因为开头和结尾已经给出，因而不必考虑格式，只需要使用正确的表达方式。根据内容提示，作者开门见山地说明了大家现在所处的位置，并以此为基点展开了说明。在文中，作者运用了空间位移法和大量的表示方位的介词短语，如on our right, in front of us, across the garden, behind the classroom building等，同时还运用了含有介词的非限制性定语从句，并在多处根据上下文的需要，使用了倒装句，如“…in which there are a dozen labs for physics, chemistry and biology and 2 language labs”，又如“On your left is the experiment building…”等，这些短语和手法的运用使得文章结构紧凑，连贯，语言丰富，把复杂的方位表达得一清二楚，值得大家学习效仿。
