+ 加入清单小编导语:英语作文是英语考试中的一个得分点,那么在写作过程中有什么技巧呢,下面是小编收集整理的相关资料,希望对您有所帮助。
1、首尾呼应,画龙点睛在文章的结尾,把含义较深的话放在末尾,以点明主题,深化主题,起到画龙点睛的效果。如“I Cannot Forget Her” (我忘不了她)的结尾:
After her death, I felt as if something were missing in my life. I was sad over her passing away, but I knew she would not have had any regrets at having given her life for the benefit of the people.
2、重复主题,句结尾回到文章开头阐明的中心思想或主题句上,达到强调的效果。如“I Love My Home Town”(我爱家乡)的结尾:
I love my home town, and I love its people. They too have changed. They are going all out to do more for the good of our motherland.
3、自然结尾随着文章的结束,文章自然而然地结尾。如“Fishing”(钓鱼)的结尾:
I caught as many as twenty fish in two hours, but my brother caught many more. Tired from fishing, we lay down on the river bank, bathing in the sun. We returned home very late.
4、含蓄性的结尾
用比喻或含蓄的手法不直接点明作者的看法,而是让读者自己去领会和思考。如“A Day of Harvesting”(收割的日子)的结尾:
Evening came before we realized it. We put down our sickles and looked at each other. Our clothes were wet with sweat, but on every face there was a smile.
5、用反问结尾
虽然形式是问句,但意义却是肯定的,并具有特别的强调作用,引起读者深思。如“Should We Learn to Do Housework?”(我们要不要学做家务?) 的结尾。
Everyone should learn to do housework. Dont you agree, boys and girls?
6、指明方向,激励读者结尾表示对将来的展望,或期待读者投入行动。如“Lets Go in for Sports”(让我们参加体育运动)的结尾:As we have said above, sports can be of great value. They not only make people live happily but also help people to learn virtues and do their work bettter. A sound mind is in a sound body. Lets go in for sports.

(5)思想性。新标准对写作的要求,增加了情感因素,在准确流畅表达写作要点的同时,适当增加句子的感情色彩,增加一些人情味,使文章读起来更亲切,完全达到与读者进行交流的目的。
(6)美观性。指的是卷面书写规范、清楚、干净、整洁。
五、写作步骤
高考英语作文素材,每次写作前问自己四个问题:这篇文章的体裁格式是怎样的?主体时态用什么时态?人称用第几人称?可以分几段,之间用什么过渡词、连接词?带着这四个问题去审题,搞清楚文章的主要内容,然后列出提纲。最后丰富自己的提纲就可以了。

篇5:高考英语写作指导策略之探究的论文
全文共 2168 字
+ 加入清单【论文摘要】在高考英语试题中,写作是有效提高学生整体成绩的重要手段,写作是目的也是为了测试学生直接运用英语表达的能力而设置的,因此通常都会放在试卷的最后面作为压轴题出现。在高考英语写作要求中,明确提出要让考生运用所学知识进行书写,能组词成句、组句成文,语句符合英语语法和习惯。在写出的书面材料中,要求达到:切中题意,文理通顺,语言准确,得当。那么,怎样才能在高考英语写作中出类拔萃呢?这正是本文要探讨的内容。
一、有的放矢,了解高考英语写作要点
要对高考英语写作的题型及内容有所了解,才能把握好高考英语写作的考点,在此基础上才能找到行之有效的对策及方法。纵观近几年各省高考英语试题中,写作测试的命题思路,有一种从指导性写作逐步向半开放式写作过渡的趋势。半开放式写作,具体地说,就是给考生们提供一定的材料(包括图、文或图文结合)然后要求学生根据材料来进行书面表达,这样的考题形式,既限制了考生随心所欲的思维,又给予考生适当的发挥空间。这种命题方式能较好地考查考生的语言组织能力、书面表达能力以及思维能力。而在文体方面,记叙文、议论文、应用文及书信为最常见的写作题材。因此,我们可以做一个形象的比喻,写文章就像工厂里制造一台机器那样,首先要确定机器由几部分组成,然后对这几部分分别细化,形成初步的设计图;再根据要求对初步的设计图进行完善、补充、修改,随之形成最终的设计图;然后我们再按照图纸的设计,使用我们所掌握的零件去制造出机器;同样的道理,学生写作时可参照以下模式:
1.理解话题:学生在动笔前必须对指定的话题进行反复细读,认真思考,理解其真正的含义,了解出题者的意图,这是进行写作的第一步;
2.明确文体,确定人称时态:这一阶段的判断中,主要强调近十年高考最常见的两种文体:(1)说明文:必须按照事物的原貌加以说明、介绍、解释,常采用一般现在时,被动语态也常使用;(2)记叙文:通常采用第一人称,描述本人的经历或耳闻目睹之事;或用第三人称讲述他人的事情,如果是过去的事情,要用过去时。
3.初拟提纲,再理解话题:明确文体的基础上,草拟写作提纲;提纲是文章的骨架,可以是一句活,也可以是一个词组,由于考试时间所限,提纲内容不必面面俱到,但必须体现文章的整体结构和思路;目前绝大部分高中学生在英语写作时,还习惯于使用母语进行构思,然后将构思好的中文内容翻译成英文,这种情况是正常的;关键在于翻译过程中的语言表达必须符合英语语言的表达习惯
4.开始写作:提纲完成后,应根据提纲充实内容,如果说提纲是骨架的话,那么这时你必须将骨架填充血肉;具体的说就是要扩展要点,连词成句,适当地变换句型,组句谋篇成文;注意应简明扼要,层次分明、用词准确、语法概念清楚,使文章更具说服力,然后在写作完成后,还要对文章进行快速的检查,减少单词的拼写错误和句子表达的错误。
二、高考英语写作指导的具体策略
根据以上对历年高考英语写作试题的分析,我们可以从以下三个方面去指导学生进行写作:
1.细读材料,认真审题
仔细阅读书面表达题所给材料的全部内容,准确理解题目要求。需要认真审查的内容有:(1)文章的开头和结尾是否已给出;(2)用第几人称写作,书面表达要求中会明确指出使用第一人称还是第三人称;(3)提供的情景是图画、图表,还是提纲,如果是连环画,要注意故事情节的连贯性,确定合理的情节发展;(4)是否提供参考词汇,如果提供有参考词汇,写作中最好要用到;(5)采用什么文体,如果是议论文,要有论点、论据和结论三部分。如果是应用文,要注意其格式。如果是记叙文,要抓住六个要素:时间、地点、人物、事件、事情起因、事情的发展与结果。
2.恰当选择词语和句式
认真审题后,就可以列提纲了,将重点单词、短语、句型写在提纲里,关于选词切忌使用生僻词语,要求做到用词准确、得体、达意。选择句式时,尽量使用多种句式,如强调句、倒装句、各种名词性从句、定语从句、状语从句和固定句型等,长句和短句视情况交错使用,这样可以提高文章的档次,使文章生辉。
选词大多是在一组同义词或近义词之间进行。例如,我们要表达“好”这个意思,一般来说,大家会马上想起“good”,因为口语中我们经常说agoodfriend、goodluck、agoodpicture等。但是,在不同的短语中,可以选择不同的英语单词使表达更加准确、生动、形象。
3.多背常识性语句,扩大知识面
语言是有规律的,不同体裁的书面表达都有其常识性语句。如果同学们平时有大量的语句积累,在写作时就能把积累的东西调动起来。这些常识性语句既可增加文章的连贯性、逻辑性和可读性,同时还能提供地道的表达方式。写人物介绍时,应着重写人物的姓名、性别、年龄、职业、身高、健康状况、业余爱好、工作态度、与人相处和社会评价等语句。例如:lipingisagoodteacher,whoisthirtyyearsold.heis175centimetrestallandheishealthy.等。

篇6:英语作文写作10大技巧
全文共 4406 字
+ 加入清单学生写作时,如果仅局限在把内容交代清楚的水准上,只选用一些普通的、直截了当的词,或一律使用简单句平铺直叙,那么,这样写出来的文章就会像一碗白开水,呆板、单调,没有可读性。下面是小编整理的英语作文写作10大技巧,欢迎阅读。
1. 灵活改变句子开头
在通常情况下,英语句子的排列方式为“主语+谓语+宾语”,即主语位于句子开头。但若根据情况适当改变句子的开头方式,比如使用倒状语或以状语开头等,会使文章增强表现力。如:
(1) There stands an old temple at the top of the hill.
→ At the top of the hill there stands an old temple.
在小山顶上有一座古庙。
(2) You can do it well only in this way.
→ Only in this way can you do it well.
只有这样你才能把它做好。
(3) A young woman sat by the window.
→ By the window sat a young woman.
窗户边坐着一个年轻妇女。
2. 避免重复使用同一词语
为了使表达更生动,更富表现力,同学们在写作时应尽量避免重复使用同一词语来表示同一意思,尤其是一些老生常谈的词语。如有的同学一看到“喜欢”二字,就会立刻想起like,事实上,英语中表示类似意思的词和短语很多,如 love, enjoy, prefer, appreciate, be fond of, care for等。如:
I like reading while my brother likes watching television.
→ I like reading while my brother enjoys watching television.
我喜欢看书,而我的兄弟却喜欢看电视。
3. 合理使用省略句
合理恰当地使用省略句,不仅可以使文章精练、简洁,而且会使文章更具文采和可读性。如:
(1) He may be busy. If he’s busy, I’ll call later. If he is not busy, can I see him now?
→ He may be busy. If so, I’ll call later. If not, can I see him now?
他可能很忙,要是这样,我以后再来拜访。要是不忙,我现在可以见他吗?
(2) If the weather is fine, we’ll go. If it is not fine, we’ll not go.
→ If the weather is fine, we’ll go. If not, not.
如果天气好,我们就去;如果天气不好,我们就不去了。
(3) She could have applied for that job, but she didn’t do so.
→ She could have applied for that job, but she didn’t.
她本可申请这份工作的,但她没有。
4. 适当运用非谓语结构
非谓语结构通常被认为是一种高级结构,适当运用非谓语结构,会给人一种熟练驾驭语言的印象。如:
(1) When he heard the news, they all jumped for joy.
→ Hearing the news, they all jumped for joy.
听了这消息他们都高兴得跳了起来。
(2) As I didn’t know her address, I wasn’t able to get in touch with her.
→ Not knowing her address, I wasn’t able to get in touch with her.
由于不知道她的地址,我没法和她联系。
(3) As he was born into a peasant family, he had only two years of schooling.
→ Born into a peasant family, he had only two years of schooling.
他出生农民家庭,只上过两年学。
5. 结合使用长句与短句
在英语写作中,过多地使用长句或过多地使用短句都不好。正确的做法是,根据实际情况在文章中交替使用长句与短语,使文章显得错落有致,这样不仅使文章在形式上增加美感,而且使文章读起来铿锵有力。如:
At noon we had a picnic lunch in the sunshine. Then we had a short rest. Then we began to play happily. We sang and danced. Some told stories. Some played chess.
→ At noon we had a picnic lunch in the sunshine. After a short rest, we had great fun singing and dancing, telling jokes and playing chess.
中午我们晒着太阳吃野餐。休息一会儿后,我们唱的唱歌,跳的跳舞,还有的讲笑话、下棋,大家玩得很开心。
6. 适当使用短语代替单词
(1) He has decided to be a teacher when he grows up.
→ He has made up his mind to be a teacher when he grows up.
他已决定长大了当老师。
(2) He doesnt like music.
→ He doesnt care much for music.
他不大喜欢音乐。
(3) He told me that the question was now under discussion.
→ He told me that the question was now being discussed.
他告诉我问题现正正在讨论中。
7. 恰当套用某些固定表达
(1) He was very tired. He couldn’t walk any farther.
→ He was too tired to walk any farther.
他太累了,不能再往前走了。
(2) The film was very interesting. Both the teachers and the students liked it.
→ The film was so interesting that both the teachers and the students liked it.
这电影很有趣,学生和老师都很喜欢。
(3) Your son is old. He can look after himself now.
→ Your son is old enough to look after himself now.
你的儿子已经长大,可以自己照顾自己了。
8. 尽量使句子带点“洋味”
(1) Dont worry. Be bold and try it, and youll learn it soon.
→Dont worry. Just go for it, and youll get it soon.
别担心,大胆试一试,你很快就会学会的。
(2) Thank you for playing with us.
→Thank you for sharing the time with us.
谢谢你陪我玩。
9. 综合使用各类所谓的“高级”结构
(1) Now everyone knows the news. I think Jim must have let it out.
→ Now everyone knows the news. I think it must have been Jim who has let it out.
现在人人都知道这消息了,我想一定是吉姆把它泄露出去的。
(2) We had to stand there to catch the offender.
→ What we had to do was (to) stand there, trying to catch the offender.
我们所能做的只是站在那儿,设法抓住违章者。
(3) If her pronunciation is not better than her teacher’s, it is at least as good as her teacher’s.
→ Her pronunciation is as good as, if not better than, her teacher’s.
如果她的语音不比她的老师好的话,至少也不会比她老师的差。
10. 适当使用名言警句点缀
在写作时根据实际情况恰当地用上一两句名言警句来点缀文章,不仅使文章显得有深度、有智慧,而且会让文章在评分中上一个“得分档次”。如:
(1) As the proverb says, “Where there is a will, there is a way.” Though you fail this time, you needn’t lose heart. As long as you work hard and stick to your dream, you will succeed one day.
(2) There is a proverb goes like this “Life isn’t a bed of roses.” It is ture that it is likely for everyone to meet problems and difficulties in life.
(3) In the modern world, more and more people live alone, which is not so good for our life. It is better for us to make more friends and enjoy friendship. Just as a proverb says, “A near friend is better than a far-dwelling kinsman.”

It is reported that tourists to China’s Great Wall can now leave their mark on a fake wall recently built near the real wall in Badaling if they pay 999 yuan.
In China, many visitors have the hobby of carving graffiti on places of interest, especially on some famous cultural relics. Last year I went to the Great Wall and found many people had left names and ugly words on the Wall, which destroys many historic bricks. In my opinion, such people should feel ashamed of leaving their marks on the great relics which were created by our ancestors.
So personally I quite agree with this brilliant project though it has caused criticism from some people. The Great Wall would be ruined one day if we didn’t take any steps to protect it. The fake wall is a really good idea because it will protect our relics as well as making profits from the project.(124 words)
英语写作指导:
英语学习中,在英语书面表达时,每次写作前问自己四个问题:这篇文章的体裁格式是怎样的?主体时态用什么时态?人称用第几人称?可以分几段,之间用什么过渡词、连接词?带着这四个问题去审题,搞清楚文章的主要内容,然后列出提纲。最后利用自己有把握的英语句子丰富自己的提纲就可以了。
(1)条理性。指的是合理布局文章结构。首先,在文章思路、组织材料、叙述顺序等方面要有一定的条理性。其次,根据需要,安排好段落,各段之间要层次分明,也要重视每一段的开头和结尾,开头语往往是总起句,结尾语往往是总结句。
(2)准确性。指要求写出语法正确的句子,包括时态、语态、用词和句法等,要准确、地道地表达。必须要牢牢掌握一些常用句型或习惯表达,避免中式英语,在实践中不断总结中英用法的差异,养成用英语思维写作的习惯。高考英语作文素材。
(3)流畅性。指根据整篇文章思想的需要,有效采用不同的连接手段,清晰段落,使文章层次清楚、行文连贯。
(4)简洁多样性。简洁性就是语言简洁,不重复。多样性就是能随情景内容的变化写出句式多样的语句。这也是新课程标准对写作的评价标准。
(5)思想性。新标准对写作的要求,增加了情感因素,在准确流畅表达写作要点的同时,适当增加句子的感情色彩,增加一些人情味,使文章读起来更亲切,完全达到与读者进行交流的目的。
(6)美观性。指的是卷面书写规范、清楚、干净、整洁。在高考书面表达中,书面整洁是也是一个主观评分标准,所以在高考中保持书面整洁是必要的。
总结:那么在高考作文中,除了自己的一些英语知识的巩固还需要的是自己的情绪和思维。写作期间保持稳定的情绪,按照自己的思维完成写作,从总结文章中—布置文章结构—使用表达的语句—下笔连贯。最后当然是要检查是否出现拼错字,句子语法有误等。
篇8:1汉语环境影响英语写作的几个方面
全文共 743 字
+ 加入清单1.1词汇方面
如果把写英语作文比作建楼房的话,英语词汇在英语写作中起着砖、瓦的作用,是句子的最基本的组成部分,所以词汇是我们高中英语教学中的重点,单词听写是课堂教学必不可少的一个环节,但学生的词汇量毕竟有限,遇到问题时,便会用汉语词汇去补充英语词汇的空缺。
例如:交通十分繁忙。误:The traffic is busy. 正:The traffic is heavy.
她和一位教授结婚了。误:She married with a professor.
正:She married a professor.
英语词语的词义往往比较复杂,并和汉语有着一定区别。这种不同就会会导致学生仅把写作当作一词一句的翻译来做,结果是事倍功半。
1.2语法方面
英语中难点就是时态,语态的掌握。英语中常用时态共十六种,语态分为主动语态与被动语态,语气有陈述语气与虚拟语气之分。不同的时态有它特有的句法结构。如现在进行时态使用be+v-ing形式来表示。现在完成时则用have/has +p.p来表示。一般将来时则用shall/will/be going to+v来表示。英语中时间意义的表达是通过动词的时和体来加以反映,而汉语中不存在时、体等,汉语则依靠表示时间的副词(如“曾经”、“正在”、“已经”、“将要”)作状语,或利用虚词“了”、“着”、“过”等作补语这一语法手段来体现,动词本身无任何变化。在英语中,“already”和“ever”常常用在完成时态之中,不能与表示过去的时间状语连用。学生常常把上述句子错译成“Yesterday I have been to the park.”“Five years ago,they have known each other.”又如在英语中,我们常常用否定前置来
篇9:高考英语写作错误分析:否定模糊
全文共 1314 字
+ 加入清单导语:高考英语书面表达想拿高分并不容易,首先你要避免一些在学生中比较常见的几种错误才行。下面小编为大家整理了高考英语写作常见的错误,希望大家在考试中能够避免。
有的同学对于否定的概念模糊,不知如何否定,有时会写出不合规则或有异义的句子。
1. 我认为没有必要买大的。
误:I think its not necessary to buy the bigger one.
正:I don’t think it is necessary to buy the bigger one.
析:有些动词如think, believe, expect, suppose, imagine, guess, fancy等的主语是第一人称单数且一般现在时,表示否定的观点应用I don’t think…,而I think… not则属于汉语式表达习惯。
2. 我们直到天全黑了才到家。
误:We arrived home until it became completely dark.
正:We didn’t arrive home until it became completely dark.
析:此汉语句子里面尽管没有否定词,但until用于肯定句时意为“直到…为止”;用于否定句时,其意为“在…以前”。因此,表示“直到…才”用not…until。
3. 如果没有受到邀请的话,我是不会去参加舞会的。
误:I’ll not go to the party unless I’m not invited.
正:I’ll not go to the party unless I’m invited.
正:I’ll not go to the party if I’m not invited.
析:unless“除非”、“如果不”,常可用if…not来替换。误句中的条件状语从句双重否定表示肯定,结果与原句意思相反。
4. 那孩子不够大不能去上学。
误:The child is not old enough not to go to school.
正:The child is not old enough to go to school.
正:The child is too young to go to school.
析:这是学生最容易写错的句子。enough to“足以、足够”。原句中“不够大不能去上学”意思是“不够上学的年龄”,故应译为not old enough to go to school。
5. 他们两个都不说英语。
误:Both of them don’t speak English.
正:Neither of them speaks English.
析:中国学生特别对于all…not 和both…not等这种部分否定结构,很容易理解成全部否定。两者全部否定用neither, 三者以上用none。
6. 开车时再小心也不过分。
误:You can be too careful in driving a car.
正:You can not be too careful in driving a car.
析:cannot…too“无论作…也不过分”。

Halloween is a holiday celebrated on October 31. By tradition, Halloween begins after sunset. Long ago, people believed that witches gathered together and ghosts roamed the world on Halloween. Today, most people no longer believe in ghosts and witches. But these supernatural beings are still a part of Halloween.
万圣节前夜是在10月31日庆祝的一个节日,根据传统,万圣节前夜的庆祝活动从太阳落山开始。在很久以前,人们相信在万圣节前夜女巫会聚集在一起,鬼魂在四处游荡。现在,大多数人们不再相信有鬼魂和女巫的存在了,但是他们仍然把这些作为万圣节前夜的一部分。

欺骗或攻击是现代万圣节的风俗。孩子们穿着特殊的衣服走街串巷,讨取糖果和玩具之类的赏赐。如果他们得不到任何的赏赐,就可能会对屋主大搞恶作剧或者胡闹了。
The tradition of the Jack o Lantern comes from a folktale about a man named Jack who tricked the devil and had to wander the Earth with a lantern. The Jack o Lantern is made by placing a candle inside a hollowed-out pumpkin, which is carved to look like a face.
南瓜灯的传统来自于一个民间传说。一个名叫Jack的人戏弄了恶魔,之后就不得不提着一盏灯在地球上流浪。南瓜灯是用雕刻成脸型,中间挖空,再插上蜡烛的南瓜做成的。

Halloween is also associated with supernatural creatures like ghosts and vampires. These creatures are not part of the natural world. They dont really exist... or do they?
万圣节还和一些诸如鬼魂和吸血鬼之类的超自然的生物有关。这些生物不是自然界的一部分。他们实际上是不存在的......或许他们其实真的存在?
Witches are popular Halloween characters that are thought to have magical powers. They usually wear pointed hats and fly around on broomsticks.

There are many people who think that wealth is better than health. I used to think so until one day I read a story about Howard Hughes. He was an American billionaire who got anything he wanted. However, in the last twenty years of his life, his health began to deteriorate and he was miserable. He had the best doctors and nurses. However, he could still find no relief. I realized that health is worth all the money in the world. If you have millions of dollars but your health is poor, you will not be able to do what you want to do. So I would like to say dont hurt yourself trying to make money. Instead take care of your body and be happy with what you do have. Health is more important.
很多人都认为财富宫比健康更重要。在读到Howard Hughes的故事之前,我也是这么认为的。Howard Hughes是美国的一个亿万富翁,能得到他想得到的任何东西。但是在他生命最后的二十年中,他的身体变得很糟糕,他很悲惨。他有最好的医生和护士,但仍得不到解脱。我意识到在这个世界上,好的身体抵得上所有的金钱。因为即使你有百万美元但身体糟糕,也不能做你想做的事情。因此我想说的是关心你的身体,对你所拥有的一切感到高兴,不要为挣钱损害你的身体。健康更重要。
Which is more important, health or wealth? It is a hot topic among people. I can hardly answer this question. I didnt realize that health is more imporant until I saw a businessmans real life.
A successful businessman, one of my fathers friends, devoted himseff to his business. He works from morning to night every day. There is no weekends in his mind. He often says, "I must earn much money so that I can get what I want. "Lately, he is ill. Though he has a lot of money, he can do nothing but lie in the hospitals bed.
So I think health is more important than wealth. People can do nothing if they are always in poor health, let alone happiness. No matter we are rich or not, we can not ignore the importance of health.
健康和财富哪个更重要?这是人们常爱谈论的一个话题。我以前回答不出这个问题,但是现在从一个商人的真实生活中我意识到健康更重要。
我父亲的一位朋友,一个成功的商人,全身心投入到他的工作中。每天从早工作到晚,在他心目中根本没有周末的概念。他经常说:“我必须多挣钱,这样就可以想干什么就干什么。”近来,他病倒了,除了躺在医院病床上,什么也不能做。
所以,我认为健康比财富更重要。如果一个人身体总是不好,他什么也做不成,更不用谈幸福了。不管我们贫穷还是富有,都不能忽视健康的重要性。

篇12:初中英语作文的写作方法
全文共 1683 字
+ 加入清单不少同学在问了,英语作文怎么写?如何写好英语作文,下面是小编为大家收集的初中英语作文的写作方法,欢迎阅读。
初一英语写作题,题材一般是写人、写事、写物、写景、日记、书信、通知、便条等文体。一般来说,不同的写作题材,它的人物,时间,写作的重点也是不尽相同的。下面结合一些常见的题型介绍一下写作的注意事项以及写作技巧。
各地的评分标准略有差异,但是都包括以下几个方面:整体印象、语言表达、词数规定等几方面内容。我们在写作中要尽量避免扣分,争取有加分点。当然用英文写作不同于用母语那样得心应手,常常会受到生词、语法、惯用法的限制,只要同学们平时注意两种语言的异同性,抓住写作要点,也可妙笔生花。
1、为了保证文章层次分明、条理清楚,要把时间固定下来,如:记叙一件事要用过去时;写经常发生的事或对人物的描写,要用一般现在时。整个文章中的人称要一致,首尾呼应,不要随意改动,以免造成误解。
2、不要为了追求“一鸣惊人”而去找一些生冷的词汇,对这些一知半解的词你不会用,不知道如何搭配,结果可能适得其反,使文章显的生硬、不协调,甚至错误百出,所以要使用有把握的词,避免不必要的失分。比如说发生了一起意外事件,我们通常用“have an accident ”来表示,不要错误的使用“have an incident”。
3、注意不同语言的表达习惯,也是写好英语作文的重要环节,如“我的理想是做一名歌手”,很多同学写成“My ambition is to do/make a singer,” “to do”表示“做”或者“干”,“to make”表示“制作”,而“做一名歌手”则表示“成为一名歌手”应该用“be/become a singer”;又如“看书、看报”应用“read a book/newspaper”,而不是“see a book/newspaper”。因此,平时应该注意不同语言的表达习惯,切忌望文生义或一味生搬硬套。
4、有些同学因怕出错而只写短句或简单句,写出的文章过于幼稚、空洞乏味。要使文章有血有肉就要把平时学的知识用进去,如:定语从句、宾语从句、非谓语动词和比较等句型,关键时用上一、二个,就能使文章不同凡响,更有文采,特别是对关联词的使用,如“so that”、“not…but ”“not only...but also”等,会使你的文章逻辑结构紧密、层次鲜明、条理清楚,更能显示出你的英文功底,但要做到这些并非一日之功,要靠平时的不断训练和积累。
5、最简单的增分点就是认真的书写。工整漂亮的书写会给评卷老师留下美好的第一印象,在扣分时自然会“手下留情”,而且很多地区都在写作上有1分的书写分。只要平时多下点功夫,得到这一分并不难。
注意事项
最后将英语写作的基本步骤和技巧归纳为以下几个环节:
1、细心审题细读题目中每一项提示或观察所给的每一幅画,明确文章的中心思想,弄清题意,确定写作体裁,掌握所要表达的要点做到心中有数,避免随心所欲,文不对题。
2、理顺要点在所给提示或图上标出要点,然后按事件先后的顺序或各要点之间的内在联系排序,分出层次。如果是看图作文,则要按图构思,这样做既可避免要点遗漏,又可使表达内容条理清楚。
3、构成框架将理顺的要点或每幅图画的含义加以连贯,构成写作的整体框架,进一步定人称、定时态语态、定顺序、定段落、定开头结尾。基本框架构成后,写作就有了把握。
4、组织句子用自己最熟悉的短语或句型将理顺的要点逐句表达出来,多用简单句,用有把握的复合句。要扬长避短,避难就易。若遇到表达障碍,可换一种说法,将一句变成两、三句,只求达意。
5、串句成篇将写好的句子连贯地组织起来,注意上下句的逻辑关系,适当采用递进、让步、转折、因果等关联词语,使短文浑然一体,层次分明,过渡自然。6、检查修改文章草成后,默读1~2遍,检查修改,尤其要注意人称、大小写、拼写、习惯用语、格式有无错误,要点有无遗漏,文句有无语病,词数是否恰当,行文是否连贯。
英语写作水平的提高是一个渐进的过程,只要同学们在平时多加训练,多读文章,做一个有心人,就能在英语作文中取得理想的成绩

3.作者的观点必须鲜明,不能模棱两可
4.论证自己的观点是议论文的最关键的部分。论证手段与英语说明文中的一些写作手法相同,常用的有罗列法、举例法、因果法、比较法等等。
5.对于较长的英语议论文还可以在文章结尾时对全文要点作一小结。
下面这篇学生作文是较为典型的一篇英语议论文:
Should Examination Be Abolished (取消)?
The examination system has come to be the main theme (主题)of modern education. One should take an examination andsucceed in passing it before he could be admitted, promoted or graduated. As it plays so important a role in the realm of education (教育的领域) it is under much criticism (评论) as to its validity (有效性) . People who are in favour of it try to develop this system more; those who are against it believe that such a system should be abolished. Should examination be abolished? In my opinion it should be.
Many people think that an examination is the only means to test knowledge, but, in fact, that is not true. A few questions given in an examination could by no means cover the whole field of the subject. Thus those who are able to answer them may be the poorest of the students and yet happen to know just a few points about that subject.
Id like to say that, because of the existence of the examination system, students pay so much attention to gaining high marks, that they often forget the chief purpose of education. The so-called clever students devote (贡献) themselves to the study of textbooks only. They, of course, know nothing but the skeleton (梗概) of knowledge. The end and aim of education, however, is to enable students to learn how to live. To do this, students must get themselves to do all kinds of training, physicalas well as mental. The present examination system has discouraged students from making such an attempt.
Moreover, since the students try so hard to put their lessons into memory in as short a time as possible, psychologically (心理上来看), they soon forget the whole subject as soon as the examination is over. Surely this is one of the greatest wastes ever made in the history of civilization.
Lastly, in order to get high marks, there is a great temptation (诱惑) for students to cheat (作弊) in an examination. Indeed, such a practice becomes the means to the end. They cheat their teachers, their parents and also themselves. Such a tendency would impair (损害) our moral standards (道德标准) .
Therefore, I am of the opinion, in conclusion, that the examination system should be abolished.
篇16:自考英语写作基础题型
全文共 2348 字
+ 加入清单一、单项选择题
(1)先易后难:一些考题的答案比较容易选定,可以先从这些考题入手。平时练习时,应以基础为主,主要精力不应放在偏题、怪题上。
(2)分析考查意图、运用相关知识:应学会分析出题者考查的意图,明确相关题的测试点是什么,然后运用所学知识,进行分析、判断,再进行选择。
(3)利用暗示进行选择:注意考题涉及的语境范围。平时应注重对习惯用语表达、惯用法和中英文化差别等方面知识的积累。
(4)运用排除法:可采取语言排除、逻辑排除、语法排除或选择排除等方法。先排除较容易、较明显的错误选项,缩小范围,而后对剩余的选项进行比较分析,最后确定答案。
二、完形填空题
1、搭配判断法。
根据对以往试题的分析,搭配型考题在完形填空题中占的比例最高。搭配型问题主要测试常见搭配的熟练程度,比如说哪些词要搭配不定式、动名词或某种从句,哪些词必须与某个介词搭配。我们在复习时要特别注意短语动词和介词的固定搭配。
2、结构判断法。
结构型问题主要包括句型、句式、连接词的选择等,解题时要运用句法知识,把握关键词,从而做出迅速正确的判断。完形填空题中有很多是利用语法的正确性与逻辑的排斥性间的矛盾来设计的。因此考生应结合上下文的合理性及意义关系的逻辑性选择最佳答案。完形填空中常考的逻辑关系主要有:
(1)转折、让步关系:这种关系表明后一种观点或事实与前一种观点或事实相比有些出乎意料。
常见的表示转折、让步的词或词组有:but,still,yet,however,though,although,no matter,in spite of,anyway,even if等。
(2)因果关系:
表示原因的连词或词组有:because (of ),due to,owing to,thanks to,since,for,as等。
表示结果的词或词组有:so,therefore,then,as a result,in consequence,consequently,thus等。
(3)递进、补充关系:这种关系表示对前一事实或观点做进一步阐述。
常用的词、词组有:moreover,likewise,besides,in addition,also,too,not only…but also,apart from,what‘s more 等。
(4)对比、比较关系:对比观点或事物间的差异性,比较观点或事物间的同一性。
表示对比的词或词组有:in contrast,by contrast,on the contrary,conversely,unlike,oppositely 等。表示比较的词或词组有:like,in comparison,compare…with,as,just as等。
3、词义判断法。
词汇型问题也是完形填空的一个考点,主要测试考生在段落语篇中把握语义连贯性的能力,提供选择的词可能是近义词、近形词也可能是随意拼凑的四个选项,遇到这类题,既要联系上下文,又要具有扎实的词汇基础,有时还须根据自己的文化背景知识做出判断、选择答案。
三、阅读理解
在做阅读理解题时,除了掌握前面介绍的基本题型、基本法则外,还要进行有意识的阅读训练。提高阅读能力的训练主要可以从下面几个方面入手:词汇、方法、侧重点。
1、词汇:猜词的技巧。
在阅读过程中,不可避免地会碰到不认识的单词,考试中又不允许查词典,有些不认识的单词对文章的理解影响不大,可以忽略。但有些不认识的单词则会影响阅读者对文章理解的正确性。在这种情况下,必需猜测词的含义,这就需要利用猜词的技巧了。
最基本的猜词技巧有两种:一是根据构词法的规则猜,构词法的规则在前面的章节中已有介绍,这里就不重复了;另一种猜词的技巧是根据上下文的描述、解释、列举、比较等,运用已有的知识,分析、推断该词的含义。常用的猜词技巧可归纳为以下几种:
(1)利用词根、词缀构词法推测词义。通过构词法推测词义是最常用的方法之一。
(2)分析文中对该词的直接定义推测词义。
作者在行文中有时不得不使用某些难词、偏词,为使读者理解,作者常常会在文章中直接解释该词语。作者或通过同位语,或使用定语从句加以阐明,或用冒号、破折号、括号给出,或用语篇标志词引出,这类语篇标志词有:that is (to say); e.g.;oor,in other words;to put it in another way等。如:
She is bilingual.In other words,she speaks English and French equally well.(bilingual:会说两种语言的)。
(3)分析文中对该词的近义复述推测词义。
同一短文中前后两个句子、短语或单词通常有互释作用,可以从上下文的复述中获取与某一单词或短语相关的信息以猜测词义。如:
It is difficult t
o list all of my fathe‘s attributes because he has so many different talents and abilities.(attribute:特质;才能)
(4)分析文中对该词的对比和并列表述推测词义。
利用上下文中的对比或并列表述猜测词义是最常用、最可靠的方法。有不少句子会在上下文中给出某个生词(尤其是偏词、难词)的同义词或反义词,运用对比或并列表达对这些生词加以推测。通过了解词与词之间的连接关系,特别是一些语篇标志词,如:however;on the other hand;nevertheless等,我们不难推断这些生词的词义。如:
If you agree,write “yes”;if you dissent,write “no”。(dissent:不同意)
篇17:2024高考英语写作高分技巧
全文共 1064 字
+ 加入清单下面是由语文迷网小编精心为大家整理的英语写作高分技巧,供大家阅读参考。
一、要善于模仿
一些同学的办法往往是背一堆范文,然后再到考场上进行一个“剪切”、“粘贴”的工作,真正的模仿重点永远要放在一定的句式结构上,而非个别的词汇。有一个句式说:“…for the simple reason that…”表示某种现象的原因是什么,用在高考(课程)写作中,我们就可以拿来解释为什么自行车在中国如此的流行:“The bicycle is very popular in China for the simple reason that…”。然而,很多同学一谈到原因仍然是“…because…”。如果要表示“总是能够”的概念,很多同学提笔就会写can always,但理想的句子应该是用双重否定表示强烈的肯定,用never fail to。
二、要灵活变通
在批改过上万份同学们英语(课程)作文中,经常能发现一些将中文生硬地翻译成英文的表达法。有一句话叫做“立志如山,行道如水”,写英文作文,一定要有决心把它写好,有信心把意思表达清楚,这是“立志如山”;但关键是遇到问题时要有个灵活的态度,能像流水一样变通解决问题。有个翻译界的故事说:在某大型国际会议的招待会上,一道菜是用鸡蛋做的。与会的客人问翻译:“What is it made of”本来是非常简单的一个问题,结果翻译太紧张,忘了“egg”这个词,但是他急中生智,回答:“It is made of Miss Hen’s son.”这里,就是一个灵活变通的范例。绕道表达,是写作中应该常常运用的一种方法。
三、要细心观察
注意英语中一些表达上的习惯。比如在正式文体的写作中,很少用 “it isn’t”这样的略缩形式,而往往是一板一眼地写作 “it is not”。同理,在正式文体中的日期一般不缩写,阿拉伯数字一般会用英文表达(特别长的数字除外)。
许多同学在写作文时,习惯于把 “since” “because” “for”这样的词放在句首引导原因状语从句。事实上,在我们见到的英语报刊杂志文章中,这样的从句一般都是放在主句之后的。另外, “and”也常常被误放在一句话的开头,表示两个句子之间的并列或递进关系。其实,经常留心地道的英语文章能发现,如果是并列关系,完全可以不用连词;如果是递进关系,用 “furthermore” “what is more”更为普遍。
四、要心有全局
英文写作如果结构意识良好,应试写作就简化成为一个填空的过程了,适当地填入观点、素材,文章就自然而然立起来了。

篇20:诚信的重要性英语作文
全文共 3071 字
+ 加入清单In the busy city of New York, such an astonishing thing that ever happened.
On a Friday night, a poor young artist stood at the gate of the subway station, playing his violin. Though the music was great, people were quickly going home for the weekend. In this case, many of them slowed down their paces and put some money into the hat of the young man.
The next day, the young artist came to the gate of the subway station, and put his hat on the ground gracefully. Different than the day before, he took out a large piece of paper and laid it on the ground and put some stones on it. Then he adjusted the violin and began playing. It seemed more pleasant to listen to.
Before long, the young violinist was surrounded with people, who were all attracted by the words on that paper. It said, “Last night, a gentleman named George Sang put an important thing into my hat by mistaken. Please come to claim it soon.”
Seeing this, it caused a great excitement and people wondered what it could be. After about half an hour, a middle-aged man ran there in a hurry and rushed through the crowd to the violinist and grabbed his shoulders and said, “Yes, it’s you. You did come here. I knew that you’re an honest man and would certainly come here.”
The young violinist asked calmly, “Are you Mr. George Sang?”
The man nodded. The violinist asked, “Did you lose something?”
“Lottery. It’s lottery,” said the man.
The violinist took out a lottery ticket on which George Sang’s name was seen. “Is it?” he asked.
George nodded promptly and seized the lottery ticket and kissed it, then he danced with the violinist.
The story turned out to be this: George Sang is an office clerk. He bought a lottery ticket issued by a bank a few days ago. The awards opened yesterday and he won a prize of $500,000. So he felt very happy after work and felt the music was so wonderful, that he took out 50 dollars and put in the hat. However the lottery ticket was also thrown in. The violinist was a student at an Arts College and had planned to attend advanced studies in Vienna. He had booked the ticket and would fly that morning. However when he was cleaning up he found the lottery ticket. Thinking that the owner would return to look for it, he cancelled the flight and came back to where he was given the lottery ticket.
Later someone asked the violinist: “At that time you were in needed to pay the tuition fee and you had to play the violin in the subway station every day to make the money. Then why didn’t you take the lottery ticket for yourself?”
The violinist said, “Although I don’t have much money, I live happily; but if I lose honesty I won’t be happy forever.”
Through our lives, we can gain a lot and lose so much. But being honest should always be with us. If we bear ourselves in a deceptive and dishonest way, we may succeed temporarily. However, from the long-term view, we will be a loser. Such kind of people are just like the water on the mountain. It stands high above the masses at the beginning, but gradually it comes down inch by inch and loses the chance of going up.
