A good book is like a good friend. My favourite book is

A good book is like a good friend. My favourite book is *The Old Man and the Sea* written by Hemingway. My father gave it to me as my 13th birthday gift.
The book tells a story of an old fisherman named Santiago. He didn't catch any fish for 84 days, but he never gave up. Later he got a huge marlin, and he fought against dangerous sharks with great courage on his way back.
I have learned a lot from the book. It teaches me that we should never lose heart when we meet difficulties in life. Whenever I want to give up after failing my exams, the book will cheer me up just like a true friend.

这是一篇主题为"A Good Book, a Good Friend"的征文类书面表达，符合八年级英语写作要求：
1. 写作框架梳理：
① 第一部分承接给定开头，直接点明最喜欢的书籍名称，可补充小细节丰富内容；
② 第二部分用一般现在时清晰介绍书籍的核心情节，对应第二个写作要点；
③ 第三部分结合自身感受，用所学的现在完成时表述自己从书中收获的道理，升华书籍如同好友陪伴的立意。
2. 注意事项：行文使用已学的衔接词让逻辑更通顺，避开超纲词汇，保证总词数达标，覆盖全部要求的写作要点。
