My Granny
The one I love best is my granny. The one who loves me best is also my granny . She is so kind that everyone who knows her likes her very much. But I＇m sorry to say that my dear granny got cancer.
It was a cold day, but my heart was even colder. I could not accept the fact that my granny got cancer. Facts are facts. Only an operation could help her. The doctor told us she was too weak to be operated on, but my granny insisted that she could stand it. So the doctors did the operation. After the operation, my granny could not sleep, or eat, or say a word because of the pain .
Every one of my family felt sad. My granny noticed this, so she tried her best to nod and smile to us . We smiled back. Every day, my granny said she felt better but actually the pain was still there. Once, she said to me, “Yangyang, my dear. I＇ll be all right.”
My granny was growing thinner and thinner, but she was still smiling. The smile gave us hope.
The other day , I went to the hospital to see my granny . She said , “Spring is coming. Though I＇m in hospital, I can feel the warmth. Yangyang I think I＇ll go home soon.”
How I hope she would be home soon!

【寫法指要】
本文雖用語簡單，但寫得娓娓動聽，字裡行間透露出對親人的真情實感。這是因為作者用了一些修辭句法的緣故。例如，開頭兩句用的是回文（chiasmus）辭格；第二段和第四段第一句用的是層遞（climax）辭格；第四段第一句後半部分用的是蟬聯（anadiplosis）辭格等。
