六年级下册英语第一单元试卷作文比较级全文共6篇示例，供读者参考篇1Comparing Things with Adjectives: A Fun Adventure!Hi there! I'm so excited to tell you about what I've been learning in my English class lately. We've been talking all about comparative adjectives and how we can use them to compare different things. At first, I thought it would be kind of boring and confusing, but it's actually been really fun and interesting!Let me give you some examples of comparative adjectives we've learned:Bigger, smaller, taller, shorter, faster, slower, louder, quieter, smarter, sillier, funnier, sadder, happier...the list goes on and on!Basically, a comparative adjective is a describing word that lets you compare two things. If I say "Tim is taller than Jack," the word "taller" is the comparative adjective. It's telling us that Tim's height is greater than Jack's height.One thing that's really cool is you can compare pretty much anything using these adjectives - people, animals, objects, youname it! I like to look around my classroom and make comparisons. Like, "My pencil case is bigger than Jenny's pencil case." Or "The window is higher than the door." It's a fun way to practice using the adjectives.My teacher taught us some spelling rules for making the comparative form too. If the adjective is just one syllable, like "tall", you add "-er" to make it "taller". But if it's a longer word with more than one syllable, like "beautiful", you put "more" in front to make it "more beautiful". There are some irregular ones too that don't follow those rules, like "good" becomes "better". It's a bit tricky, but we're getting the hang of it!Using comparatives is really handy for all sorts of situations. Like if I'm trying to describe two different books to a friend, I could say "This book is funnier than that one." Or if I'm talking about my baby sister and baby brother, I could say "My sister is quieter than my brother." You get the idea!My favorite use of comparatives is probably when I'm trying to persuade my mom to get me something, haha. "This video game is SO much cooler than that boring old one I have!" Or "The new soccer ball I want is way better quality than my old one." I'm sure lots of you can relate to trying to convince your parents like that!In class, we've been doing all sorts of fun activities to practice comparative adjectives. We've played games where we have to put adjectives in the right order from smallest to biggest. We've had competitions to see who can make the funniest comparisons. We've done writing exercises where we have to compare two people, places or things in detail.One of my favorite activities was when we had to go around the classroom in pairs and find two objects to compare using as many adjectives as possible. My partner and I compared a stapler to a pencil sharpener. The stapler was "heavier, bigger, more useful and more expensive" while the sharpener was "smaller, lighter, noisier and less important". It was hilarious coming up with all those crazy comparisons!Overall, I've really enjoyed learning about comparative adjectives. They make my English sound more descriptive and interesting. Plus, using them feels like a fun little game or challenge. Whenever I'm talking about two different things now, I'm always thinking "How can I compare them using an adjective?"I definitely don't find comparative adjectives boring or confusing anymore. In fact, I'm going to use one right now - learning them has been way more fun than I expected! I can'twait to see what other kinds of awesome adjectives we're going to learn about next. This English stuff just keeps getting better and better!篇2Title: The Great Comparison GameHey there! It's me, your friendly neighborhood sixth-grader, here to share my thoughts on comparative adjectives. You know, those fun little words that help us compare things and figure out which one is bigger, smaller, faster, or whatever else we're looking at.Let me start by saying that learning comparative adjectives was a game-changer for me. Before, I could only describe things in simple terms, like "big" or "small." But now, with these awesome adjectives, I can really get into the nitty-gritty details and express myself in a way that's way more specific and interesting.For example, instead of just saying a dog is "big," I can say it's "bigger than a cat." See how much more information that gives you? It's like putting on a pair of super-powered comparison glasses that let you see the world in a whole new way.Speaking of glasses, let's talk about my favorite comparative adjective: "cooler." Because let's be real, when you're asixth-grader, being cool is kind of a big deal. And with comparative adjectives, I can say things like "My new sneakers are cooler than yours" or "That video game is way cooler than the last one."Now, you might be thinking, "But what if I want to compare more than two things?" Well, my friend, that's where superlative adjectives come in. These bad boys let you take the comparison game to the next level by finding the biggest, smallest, fastest, or coolest of the bunch.Like, if I wanted to say who the coolest kid in our class is, I could use the superlative form and say, "Sarah is the coolest kid in our class." Boom! No more arguments or debates, just pure, undisputed coolness.But you know what? With a little practice and patience, it all started to click. And now, using comparative and superlative adjectives feels as natural as breathing.In fact, I've even started using them in my everyday life, like when I'm trying to convince my parents to let me stay up late or buy me that new video game. "But Mom, Dad, this game is way cooler than the last one!" Or, "I promise I'll be the quietest kid inthe whole neighborhood if you let me stay up for one more hour."Anyway, I could go on and on about how awesome these adjectives are, but I think you get the idea. Learning them has been a total game-changer for me, and I'm sure it will be for you too.So, the next time you're trying to describe something, don't just settle for "big" or "small." Unleash the power of comparative and superlative adjectives and really paint a picture with your words. Trust me, your writing (and your cool factor) will thank you for it.Happy comparing, my friends!篇3My Big ComparisonsWhen you're in 6th grade, there are a lot of things to compare. Like which snack is tastier - chips or cookies? Which video game is more fun - Mario Kart or Fortnite? And of course, which is the coolest - dinosaurs or sharks?Speaking of snacks, in my opinion chips are way better than cookies. Chips are crunchier and more satisfying to eat. You canget so many different flavors too - barbecue, sour cream and onion, nacho cheese. My favorite are the spicy Takis chips. Cookies are just too sweet sometimes. Unless they're chocolate chip, then I can pound down a dozen no problem!Video games are sort of a toss up. I love the classic fun of Mario Kart racing and tossing banana peels at my friends. But Fortnite is way more intense with the building and battling. I think I'm slightly better at Mario Kart since I've played it for years. Fortnite takes a lot more skill with the aiming and building. Sometimes I get tired of being eliminated right away by a sweat! Both games are a blast to play with my buddies though.Now let's get to the real debate - dinosaurs versus sharks. In my mind, there's no question that dinosaurs take the win for coolness. They are the OGs, the original giant reptiles that ruled the land for like 165 million years! There's just something epic about anything with "saur" at the end of its name - Tyrannosaurus, Brachiosaurus, Pterodactylsaurus. Sharks are awesome too with their powerful jaws and sleek torpedo shapes. But they've only been around for a measly 450 million years. That's nothing compared to dinosaurs!Just look at some of the dinosaurs and how awesome they were. The Tyrannosaurus Rex was like 40 feet long and hadbanana-sized teeth. Its jaw could crushthousands of pounds. Definitelysomething you don't want to mess with! The Brachiosaurus was a huge plant-eater that was 85 feet tall. That's taller than a 6 story building! And don't even get me started on the Pterodactyl, one of the largest flying creatures ever with that ridiculously long beak.Sharks have some amazing qualities too, like the Great White's ability to leap straight out of the water to snatch seals. Or the Hammerhead's unique shaped head that gives it super cool visual perception. The Megamouth Shark is one of the biggest sharks and can swallow entire bait balls of fish with its gigantic mouth. Definitely dangerous creatures that deserve respect.But when you break it all down, sharks just can't compete with the sheer size, scale, and dominance of the mighty dinosaurs. Dinosaurs even preyed on shark ancestors like the smaller, crappier reptiles they were. If there was ever a standoff between a T-Rex and a Great White, I'd put my money on the massive land beast with teeth the size of bananas. He'd probably just stomp the shark or give it one killer bite. Sorry sharks, you're amazing creatures, but dinosaurs will forever be cooler and more badass.Those are just a few of my thoughts on comparing some of the epic things in this world. Of course, there are lots of other good comparisons out there to debate. Like whether LeBron or Michael Jordan was better? If tacos are tastier than burritos? And who would win in a fight between a velociraptor and a honey badger?But I'll leave those for another time. For now, I've got to get ready for my cousin's birthday party this weekend. His mom is making his favorite dessert - a giant chocolate chip cookie cake. Probably not as good as chips, but I'll still crush it like the hungry dinosaur I am! Thanks for reading my comparisons. Let me know if you agree or have any to add!篇4Comparing Things: The Better, The BestSchool is back in session after the long summer break, and I've got comparing things on my mind. You see, our first unit in English class this year is all about using comparative adjectives and talking about how one thing is better or worse than another. At first I thought it would be pretty easy, but man, have I learned there's a lot more to it than just adding "-er" to some words!Let me give you some examples of what I'm talking about. Take two kids for instance - Jeff and Sarah. Jeff is taller than Sarah, but Sarah is smarter than Jeff. So in that case, Jeff is the tall-er one, while Sarah is the smart-er student. Get it? By adding -er to the adjectives "tall" and "smart", we can compare the two kids.But wait, there's more! What if we wanted to compare Jeff and Sarah to the rest of the kids in our class? Well, then we might say that Sarah is the smartest student, and Jeff is one of the tallest boys. See how I added "-est" to make it the superlative form? That lets us know Sarah is smarter than everyone, and Jeff is pretty much as tall as the tallest kids get.Comparing things using -er and -est is just the start though. We also have to watch out for irregular adjectives that don't follow that pattern. Like "good, better, best" instead of "good, gooder, goodest." Or "bad, worse, worst." Tricky, right? My teacher says we just have to memorize those irregular ones.Then there are some two-syllable adjectives like "happy" or "quiet" where you have to say "more happy" or "less quiet" instead of "happier" or "quieter." It's enough to make your head spin! And for adjectives with three or more syllables, we alwayshave to use "more" or "less" rather than -er and -est. Like "more beautiful" instead of "beautifuler."Whew, I'm getting a little tongue-tied just writing about all the rules! But I'm trying my best to get it down because comparing things is really important, not just in English class but in life.Like when I'm trying to decide between two different video games, I might compare how fun they are, how challenging the levels are, what the graphics look like, etc. I'll say something like "Call of Battle seems more fun but less realistic than Assigned Destroyers 5. But Assigned Destroyers has better graphics and harder levels." See what I mean?Or if my parents are trying to pick a restaurant for my sister's birthday dinner, we might compare cuisine types. "The Thai place has spicier dishes but the Mexican restaurant is probably less expensive."We compare things all the time without even realizing it! Picking outfits based on which shirt looks cooler. Deciding which cookie is the biggest or gooiest. Debating whether the beach or the lake is the better place for swimming. It's just part of how we analyze options and make choices.Some comparisons are pretty silly when you think about them too. Like, which is the tastiest: broccoli or ice cream? Duh, ice cream wins that one hands down for most people! Although I guess there could be some weird broccoli-obsessed person out there who might pick that. To each their own, I guess.Comparing things doesn't just have to be about picking favourites or giving opinions either. In science class, we might compare how much faster sound travels through solids than gases. Or in math, figuring out whether 48 is greater than or less than 62. Those are just stating factual, objective comparisons based on measurements and data. Totally different than debating which football team is better!So yeah, using comparatives is just a really core part of human language and reasoning in general. We all do it naturally every single day, whether we're aware of it or not. It's how we weigh options, form preferences, evaluate data, you name it. Even little kids start doing it from basically the moment they begin putting sentences together!But now that I'm in the 6th grade, my English teacher wants us to get really technical about the proper ways to form comparatives. All the rules about when to use -er versusmore/less, how to handle irregular adjectives, making things superlative with -est, and so on. It's a lot to try to remember!I can't wait until we move on to the next unit though, because I've heard it's all about using metaphors and similies for comparing things in an even more creative, figurative way. Maybe something like "his sneakers are as white as fresh snow" or "her hair shimmered like diamonds in the sunlight." Now those arer eally fun ways to compare things that go beyond just -er and -est!Although I do have to admit, learning all the nitty-gritty details of comparatives now will probably make me appreciate those figurative comparisons a lot more when we get to them. It's hard work, but step-by-step I'm getting betterat this whole comparing things business.Okay, I think that's more than enough examples and ramblings from me on this topic! I've pretty much compared every type of comparison that I can think of. Hopefully I managed to make a decent shot at writing this essay from a 6th grader's point of view. Let me know if you need any clarification or have additional instructions. But if not, I'll stop here and just say - thanks for letting me practice this unit's concepts throughwriting. Practice really does make perfect...or should I say, practice makes you more perfect at things? You get the idea!篇5My Struggles with the Comparative DegreeHi there! My name is Emily, and I'm a 6th-grader at Oakwood Elementary School. I love learning new things, but sometimes, certain topics can be really tricky. One area that has given me a hard time lately is the comparative degree in English.Let me start by explaining what the comparative degree is all about. You see, when we want to compare two things or people, we often use adjectives like "tall," "smart," or "funny." But sometimes, we need to show which one is taller, smarter, or funnier than the other. That's where the comparative degree comes in.In English, we usually form the comparative degree by adding "-er" to short adjectives, like "tall" becomes "taller." For longer adjectives, we use the word "more" before the adjective, like "more intelligent." And if we want to compare three or more things, we use the superlative degree, which is formed by adding "-est" to short adjectives or using "most" before longer adjectives.Sounds simple enough, right? Well, let me tell you, it's not always that straightforward! There are all sorts of exceptions and irregular forms that make my head spin.One of the first challenges I faced was with adjectives that have more than one syllable. For example, "beautiful" is a three-syllable word, so the comparative form should be "more beautiful." But then there are words like "handsome," which is two syllables, but the comparative form is "handsomer," not "more handsome." How confusing is that?And don't even get me started on irregular forms! Why is the comparative of "good" not "gooder" but "better"? And why is the comparative of "bad" not "badder" but "worse"? It's like the English language is playing a cruel joke on us students!I remember one time in class when we were practicing comparative and superlative forms, and my teacher asked us to complete the sentence: "She is the _____ girl in the class." Now, I knew the adjective was "pretty," so I confidently wrote "prettiest." But then my friend Sarah raised her hand and said, "No, it's 'most pretty.'" We argued back and forth until our teacher had to intervene and explain that both forms were technically correct, but "prettiest" is more commonly used.Another tricky aspect of the comparative degree is when you're comparing two things that are equal. In that case, you use the word "as" followed by the adjective. For example, "John is as tall as his brother." Seems simple, right? But then there are phrases like "not as tall as" or "not so tall as," which can be confusing to remember.And let's not forget about the different rules for comparing quantities or measurements. For example, when comparing lengths or distances, we use "longer" or "shorter," but for weights or heights, we use "heavier" or "taller." It's like there's a whole separate set of rules just for those types of comparisons!Despite all these challenges, I'm determined to master the comparative degree. I've been practicing with flashcards, doing extra worksheets, and even making up silly sentences to help me remember the different forms. Like, "My brother is funnier than a clown on a pogo stick," or "This math problem is harder than a rock."I've also been paying extra attention in class and asking my teacher for help whenever I'm stuck. She's been really patient and encouraging, which has made a huge difference.One thing that has helped me a lot is finding real-life examples of comparative forms in books, movies, or evenconversations with my friends and family. It's amazing how often we use comparative language without even realizing it!For instance, the other day, my friend Sarah and I were discussing our favorite snacks. Sarah said, "I think chocolate chip cookies are tastier than plain sugar cookies." Right away, I recognized the comparative form of "tasty" and felt proud of myself for catching it.Another time, I was reading a book, and the author described a character as "braver than a lion." I immediately thought, "Aha! Comparative degree using '-er' with a short adjective."It's these little moments of recognition that make me feel like I'm slowly but surely getting the hang of the comparative degree. And while it's still a challenging topic for me, I'm not letting it get me down.After all, learning a new language is never easy, but that's what makes it so rewarding. Every time I overcome a hurdle like the comparative degree, I feel a sense of accomplishment that motivates me to keep pushing forward.So, if you're also struggling with the comparative degree or any other aspect of English, don't lose hope! Keep practicing,asking questions, and looking for examples in the world around you. And most importantly, be patient with yourself. Learning takes time, but with perseverance and a positive attitude, you'll get there.Who knows, maybe one day I'll be able to say, "I'm more confident with the comparative degree than anyone in my class!" But for now, I'll settle for being just a little bit better at it than I was yesterday.篇6My Amazing Adventures with ComparativesComparing things is super fun and useful! In English class this semester, we've been learning all about the comparative degree. At first, it seemed a bit tricky, but now I'm getting the hang of it. Let me tell you about some of the hilarious situations where I've used comparatives recently.It all started a few weeks ago when my friends and I were hanging out at the park. Miguel brought his new pet hamster, Speedster. Speedster is the funniest little furball you've ever seen! He was zipping around the picnic table at lightning speed."Whoa, Speedster is faster than my cat at home!" I exclaimed, using the comparative adjective 'faster.'"You're right, Jake. I think he might even be faster than a cheetah!" Sara chimed in with a giggle.Miguel looked so proud of his supercharged hamster. "He's definitely the fastest hamster in the whole neighborhood!"We all nodded in agreement. Speedster was impressively fast compared to other rodents we knew. Using comparatives helped us express just how speedy that little guy truly was.A couple days later, my younger brother Timmy and I were watching cartoons together. There was a scene where two characters were having an eating contest, devouring massive piles of spaghetti. It was both disgusting and mesmerizing at the same time."That purple monster is eating way more spaghetti than the polka-dot one!" Timmy pointed out.I decided to apply what I'd learned about comparatives. "You're absolutely right, Timmy. The polka-dot guy can't eat as much as the other one."Timmy's eyes went wide. "Wow Jake, good job using that comparing word thingy correctly!"I beamed with pride at putting my new English skills to use. Even simple conversations become learning opportunities with comparatives.My favorite comparative situation happened just last weekend though. Our family went on a hiking trip in the mountains. The scenery was breathtaking up there! Tall pine trees, sparkling streams, and vistas stretching out for miles and miles.At one point, we came across a stunning waterfall. Icy blue liquid cascaded down a rocky cliff probably 60 feet high. It was easily one of the most beautiful sights I'd ever witnessed."This waterfall is much taller than the one we saw last summer!" my dad remarked."You're so right, honey," my mom agreed. "And I think the water is colder too. Just look how fast it's moving over those rocks."I decided to jump in with my own comparative observation. "The water looks way cleaner too. It's so crystal clear, even clearer than our swimming pool!"We all had a good chuckle at my silly but accurate comparison. Spending quality time with my family while flexing my English skills... what could be better?By this point, I felt like quite the comparative pro. Using'more,' 'less,' '-er,' and other comparative phrases had become second nature to me. I started looking for opportunities to use them everywhere I went.At the grocery store with my mom, I commented, "These apples look redder and bigger than the ones we got last week!"Brushing my teeth before bed, I'd grin into the mirror and say, "My teeth look whiter than ever after using this new toothpaste!"I even started using double comparatives, like when I told my dad, "Your mustache looks thicker and more magnificent with every passing day!"He playfully ruffled my hair and said, "Why thank you, my boy. Yours will be just as thick and manly one day too!"Comparatives have infiltrated every part of my life now. Anything and everything can be compared to something else. The more I use them, the more natural and fun it becomes.What's the biggest, most valuable lesson I've learned through this grammar journey? Comparatives help us make sense of the world around us. They allow us to precisely articulate how one thing relates to another in a clear, vivid way.Without comparatives, we'd really struggle to explain our experiences in-depth. We'd be stuck just stating objective facts without that extra descriptive punch. Like, "That roller coaster was fast and that ice cream was cold." Okay, sure, but how fast? How cold compared to what?By utilizing comparatives, we can paint a much richer picture with our words. "That brand new roller coaster was faster than a race car! And the mint chocolate chip ice cream was even colder than a winter night in Alaska!"See what I mean? Isn't that way more engaging and evocative? With comparatives, our self-expression levels up in a major way. We can analyze, critique, and evaluate the world through a compelling comparative lens.So in the end, my adventures with the comparative degree have been an enriching, illuminating experience. I've gained a powerful tool for vividly describing my reality. Whether I'm discussing pets, food, nature, or anything else, I can whip outthose handy comparative words to make my point louder and clearer.I can't wait to see what other realms I get to explore with my awesome comparative superpowers. Comparing the deliciousness of burritos from different restaurants? No problem! Analyzing which soccer players are bigger, stronger team assets? You'd better believe I'm on it! Determining whether my dad's snores are louder than a jackhammer drilling through concrete? Hey, I'll give it a comparative crack!The possibilities are endless for this elementary grammar maven. Adjectives, adverbs, comparatives of all sorts - bring them on! My brain's ready to run laps around the English language like never before. Thanks to comparatives, my world just got way more interesting and expressive. I'd say that's pretty darn valuable in my book!。
