The relativistic external shock model of gamma-ray burst(GRB) afterglows has been established with five free parameters, i.e., the total kinetic energy E, the equipartition parameters for electrons ε_e and for the magnetic field ε_B, the number density of the environment n and the index of the powerlaw distribution of shocked electrons p. A lot of modified models have been constructed to consider the variety of GRB afterglows, such as: the wind medium environment by letting n change with radius,the energy injection model by letting kinetic energy change with time and so on. In this paper, by assuming all four parameters(except p) change with time, we obtain a set of formulas for the dynamics and radiation, which can be used as a reference for modeling GRB afterglows. Some interesting results are obtained. For example, in some spectral segments, the radiated flux density does not depend on the number density or the profile of the environment. As an application, through modeling the afterglow of GRB 060607A, we find that it can be interpreted in the framework of the time dependent parameter model within a reasonable range.
