1. why to read original edition novel

要想真正提高外语水平,阅读原版小说是必经之路,正如不是每个人都能成为外语高手一样, 不是每个人都能够有毅力读完N本原版小说的.(我特佩服门卫,能够把一本都上N遍,如果我有这种毅力的话,早就成为高手了…)

2. fundamental conditions

语法:系统准确的掌握语法. 基本上,如果是E,高中毕业以后这一点都达到了

词汇: 熟练词汇>2.5k, 认知词汇>5k

工具书:一本C-E,

一本E-E,或者用文曲星代替,但我偏好字典----词汇认知学指出,词汇的记忆效果与词汇的检索时间正相关(我现在读法文,由3本D, F-C,F-E,F-F)

3. 选材,仁者见仁,就我个人而言, 我偏好当代中篇作品(我现在选了一本Marcel Pagnol 写于1957年的, 280pages)

4. 前期工作:

查找百科全书或相应的工具书,了解到作者的生平,作品,世人的评价.

5. 阅读中的词汇学习:

每天阅读6 pages(6X225=1350字),在阅读过程中碰到new words先做标记,读完后再查D, 把生词记载在本子上,并及时背诵(我现在最怕的就是这一点,会不会半途而废???)

6. how to read

我准备默读, 这是我的习惯,朗读太费尽了,泛读也没有意义,介于精泛之间

7. read what

我主要研究其词汇搭配.词汇的用法是语言中最难的,比如,法语中最简单的一个介词à,用法不计其数,在大型D上有好几页,为什么同样的词汇在名家手下就生龙活虎,到了我的手下就一潭死水呢?我认为这应该是读原版小说的最根本目的.

记得AS以前告诫我,要多学词法,少背词汇, 可惜一直没有好好的实行, 现在,我就以法语作为实验品吧…再次谢谢AS!!!

我准备把注意力集中在届词,练词,动词上面,因为名词和形容词的用法太简单了,不知这样是否OK?

8. how to digest

每读完一章写一篇读后感,相当于开卷考试,经常并及时背诵本子上的new words

9. 结语

方法人人都有,上面只是我个人的对策,真诚的希望大家对阅读原版小说提出意见和建议.

Today is Saturday, I don’t need to go to school, so I decided to take some morning exercises. Early in the morning, I went out of the house and looked around, the city was so quiet. With few cars, the air was fresh, I felt so comfortable. Besides the people who took the morning exercise, I found some people who worn the orange uniform, they were working. This was the first time for me to see the cleaners work in the morning, they were easily neglected, because they worked so early and when the time for people to go to work, cleaners rested. Watching these cleaners working, I feel so thankful for them, they were doing the greatest job. People praised them as the city’s dressers, they kept the city clean all the time and brought comfort to people. They are the respectable people, we should applause for them.

Because the Palace Museum is a place of five thousand years of brilliance

and ancient culture, so he has long been a tourist attraction in my heart, and

this summer vacation I have finally made a dream come true.

In Beijing I will ride my father and mother went to the tiananmen square,

across tiananmen square, the meridian gate of the world-famous greeted the hall

of supreme harmony, the hall of supreme harmony majestic, magnificent, colorful

glazed tile, such as a long arranged very neat. Curved corner with a monster,

four up the eaves of the cock appear grand hall of supreme harmony, to the hall

of supreme harmony, seventy-two large andalusite carved dragon painted chicken

shows the architecture of the feudal monarchy. The golden roof reflects the

majesty and status of the ancient Chinese emperors. The great hall looked solemn

and solemn, but the beauty of the appearance was so monotonous and heavy that I

was in vain. I dont know why I feel as if a group of puppets are standing

respectfully on either side of the house. Incense sticks up in the incense

burner, and the emperor sits high in the temple. The Palace Museum, a symbol of

the ancient kingship, has been invaded by a brick and a brick. It is far from

the palace of Buckingham Palace.

In the afternoon, we in addition to the front door, look back at taihe

light standing in tiananmen square, this magnificent buildings, so the layout of

the orderly, so solemn, not amazing, hope this trip to the Forbidden City will

become my eternal memory.

The annual Chinese New Year came in 2008, the Spring Festival has come exceptionally busy, it is accompanied by the festive sound of firecrackers, sky in full bloom, and colorful fireworks came.

提纲：

(1) 家乡的地理位置；

(2) 解放前的情况；

(3) 解放后的变化；

My Home Town

My home town is a beautiful place. It stands beside a wide river and is rich in fish and rice.

But in the old days it was a poor and backward little town. Many people had no work. They lived a hard life.

In 1949 my hometown was liberated. Since then great changes have taken place there. The streets have been widened. Factories, schools, hospitals, cinemas and theatres have sprung up one after another. The life of the people is greatly improved.

I love my hometown. All the more I love its people. They are working hard so as to make it still richer and more beautiful.

[我的家乡初中英语作文120字

I always think there is not enough time. For example， I have just taken a

three-day holiday. But when I look back， I just feel that it‘s only one day.

There goes a proverb， “Time is money”。 Now I want to say， time is more precious

than money， because when money is spent， we can earn some more again. However，

when time is gone or lost， never will it return.

Time goes without being noticed. The time for our study and work is usually

limited. So I think we must make full use of our time. But it‘s a pity that I am

always not aware of the importance of time until it’s too late.

So I think， I should get into the good habit of saving time because wasting

time is equal to wasting one‘s life. Do not put off what can be done today till

tomorrow!

游记，是中学生感到最难写的一类作文，因为随着游程的行进，耳闻目睹的情景不胜枚举，很难将材料组织得当，往往写成流水账。如何将自己的游程清清楚楚、有详有略的记叙？如何避免将游记写成景点介绍？这些都是我们今天要谈的问题。

国庆长假你是否游历了祖国的名山大川？是否踏访了华夏的文明古迹？是否流连于桂林的山水中？是否沉醉在丽江的灯影里……旅游，丰富了我们的生活，增长了我们的见识。当我们结束愉快的旅程后，烦恼接踵而来。父母和老师往往不会让我们“白”游一场，写篇作文当作“总结”与“汇报”常常成了旅游的“附件”。

最让大家头疼的是旅游涉及的时间长，景点多，如何才能写得不像流水账，又有自己的特点呢？

首先是“舍”。只有学会舍弃，才能有重点的描写。景点太多，一一赘述很难做到详细、具体。只有突出最有特色的地方才能写出特点，写清游历的情况。例如，你到云南旅游，一路走来，昆明的石林、大理的洱海、丽江的古城，还有玉龙雪山，处处皆景。你必须忍痛割爱，选择其中的一个作为写作的重点，其他最多用一两句话带过。只有这样你才能把游历的情况说清楚。

其次是“短”。这个“短”，不是指的篇幅短，而是指文章涉及的时间跨度要短。不要从出发开始写，一直写到全天的游程结束。这样无端生出的枝节会很多，烦扰了自己的思路。就从你到达这个景点写起，写到景点游览结束。时间的集中会有助于你更好地组织材料，突出景点的特色。

再次是“真”。这一点是同学们最容易忽略，也是最能体现写作水平的。很多人以为写游记就是把景点的情况告诉别人。其实不然。游记，就是游历的记录，更强调了自己独特的游览感受。游览同一个地方，大人和孩子的感受会不同，男生和女生游览的感觉也有差异。怎样将自己的独特感受表达出来呢？那就是将自己游览过程中的“发现”写出来。这些发现可以是“摸一摸”“闻一闻”“听一听”“找一找”，甚至是“猜一猜”，也就是把你游览时的所见、所做、所闻、所思写下来。游记最忌讳的就是通篇景物描写，有了自己的活动出现在游览的过程中那才是属于你自己的游览经历。

最后是“趣”。旅游之所以能吸引人，首先就是有趣味。那么，你的游记也要把你在游历过程中感受到的趣味表达出来。这种“趣味”的内涵很广：可以是放肆的玩耍，可以是悠闲的漫步，可以是滑稽的场面，亦可以是别样的风俗……只要是觉得有意思的就不妨多写两笔，把自己的快乐和大家分享！

掌握了以上“四字”要诀，估计再提笔写游记你就有了一些头绪了吧？

最后还有一个很重要的事情要交代：任何游记，对于景点的环境描写是必不可少的部分，这里可要写得细致生动哦。

Dim lamp, I looked at the cup of tea, boiling water, the impact of time and

time again, let me feel the fragrance of tea. That bitter taste in his mouth, a

point slightly sweet, but also by my greedy mouth to the occupation, and eyes

dim, hazy outlines of the memory, can no longer be hazy memory already.

Work as much as “cook a meal,” a playful little, the teachers serious

“inhibition” the laughter of the Miao, the pressure of the heavy, “created” in

the dreams of us - growing pains. Open the heavy book of memories, that little

thoughts, perhaps tired of back and some memories back.

“At first” arrive, I am a fragile being “enemy” aimed at the

“vulnerability” opened a fierce shot, that vulnerable, I, in the “blood” at the

expense of ground could be a “sleeping inside burning the midnight oil to see

volume, Dreaming rang Beishi ”and I once again stood up. Those days are dark,

puzzled me, and learn and sometimes I have to find a seat has not yet withered

and yellow grass, and sometimes a desk, windowsill side to see the rows of trees

standing in the distance is hard, for the only be able to issue a final touch of

Brilliant Green. What are those trees? I have no way of knowing what effect this

relationship? As long as they are trees, would be sufficient. When I looked at

them a daze, the heart will be a myriad of thoughts, when my eyes back to the

tree when the mood suddenly see the light, the pressure disappeared and instead

engaged in learning among busy.

As it is known to us all ,LuXun is a famous Chinese writer. He is not only

a writer, thinker, but also the founder of Chinese Literature . He wrote many

classic (经典的)novels and his stories, which are translated many languages, were

made into film,such as The True Story of AH Q and The New Years Sacrifice,which

deeply showed peoples suffering in the old days.

Because of his achievement to Chinese literature, Chairman Mao spoke highly

of him. Besides, some of his works were selected into the text books in high

school and university. I think youll gain a lot from reading his works.

My school is very beautiful. It is Nanhai Experimental School. There are

third floor and the fourth floor. The music rooms are on the third floor and the

fourth floor. My class room is on the fifth floor. I am in Class9， Grade 6.

There are five gardens in our school. In the gardens there are many beautiful

flowers， grass and trees. There is a big playground in my school.

就“说明对象”而言，英语说明文可分为对“客观具体事物”的说明和对“主观抽象观念”的说明两大类，比如：对“LASER（激光）”、“Computer Problem of Year XX（计算机XX年问题）”等等的说明都是对客观或者具体事物的说明，而“The Successful Interview（谈成功的面试）”、“How to Write Good English Composition（如何才能写好英语作文）” 等是对主观抽象观念的说明。对我们中学生朋友来说，在汉语说明文的教学中似乎比较侧重前者，即解释客观具体事物的说明文。但在英语说明文中，阐述和说明 “主观抽象观念”的说明文占了很大的比重，其中有些类似汉语中的议论文。但是无论是对“客观具体事物”的说明还是对“主观抽象观念”的阐述，英语说明文从结构上看大致可分为三个部分：第一部分一般是文章的第一段，提出文章的主题，也就是说，文章想要阐述、说明的主要内容；第二部分是文章的主体，可由若干个段落组成，对文章的主题进行展开说明；第三部分是结尾段，对文章的主题作归纳总结。从英语说明文的结构可以看出，要写好英语说明文的关键在于第二部分如何对文章主题进行展开说明。在英语中，常见的用来展开文章主题的方法有下列几种：

1.罗列法（listing）

在文章开始时提出需要说明的东西和观点，然后常用first，second，…and finally加以罗列说明。罗列法广泛地使用于各类指导性的说明文之中，下面这篇学生作文就是用罗列法写成的：

Early Rising

Early rising （早起） is helpful in more than one way. First， it helps to keep us fit （健康）。 We all need fresh air. But air is never so fresh as early in the morning. Besides， we can do good to our health from doing morning exercise （做早操）。

Secondly， early rising helps us in our studies. We learn more quickly in the morning， and find it easier to remember what we learn in the morning.

Thirdly， early rising enables （使能够） us to plan the work of the day. We cannot work well without a good plan. Just as the plan for the year should be made in the spring， so the plan for the day should be made in the morning.

Fourthly， early rising gives us enough time to get ready for our work， such as to wash our faces and hands and eat our breakfast properly.

Late risers may find it very difficult to form the habit of early rising. They ought to make special efforts to do so. As the English proverb says，“Early to bed and early to rise， makes a man healthy， wealthy and wise.”

罗列法经常用下列句式展开段落，我们可以注意模仿学习：

There are several good reasons why we should learn a foreign language. First of all， …Secondly， …And finally， …

We should try our best to plant more trees for several good reasons First of all， …Secondly， …And finally，

必须指出的是，有时罗列法并不一定有明确的first， second…等词，但文章还是以罗列论据展开的。

2.举例法（examples）

举例法是用具体的例子来说明我们要表达的意思，常用for example， for instance， still another example is…等词语引出。下面这篇学生作文就是用举例法写成的：

Recreation

It is impossible to keep in good health unless we take enough recreation （娱乐）。 The mind， too， needs change to make it fresh and vigorous （有活力的） There is much truth in the old saying， All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.“

There are many games which boys and girls can play after their school work is done， for instance， football， tennis， and kite-flying. Other examples of recreation are boating， fishing， gardening， cycling， walking， chess-playing， and reading. Persons who sit much at their business should take a kind of recreation that will supply their muscles （肌肉） with exercise. Those who spend most of their time in the open air and do manual work （体力活） should adopt （采纳） reading or some other quiet form of recreation.

Cycling is said to be an important means of recreation， but many persons foolishly tire out themselves by cycling too much. The same may be said in regard to football. Tennis is a pleasant form of recreation. Many persons take great delight in boating. Fishing requires much patience， and there is much danger of taking cold by sitting still on a cold day too long. A good brisk （轻松） walk is one of the finest forms of exercise. For persons engaged in outdoor labor， chess-playing is another excellent form of recreation.

可以看出，举例法和罗列法有时可以结合使用：即用罗列法来列出例子，用例子充实罗列的说明。

3.比较法（comparison and contrast）

比较法是对两个对象进行比较，从而进行说明的写作手法。比较法又可细分为比较相同点（comparison）和比较不同点（contrast）两种方法，比如：

From Paragraph to Essay

Although they are different in length （长度）， the paragraph and the essay are quite similar in structure （结构）。 For example， the paragraph starts with either a topic sentence （主题句） or a topic introducer followed by a topic sentence. In the essay， the first paragraph sets up the topic focus （主题所在） Next， the sentences in the body of a paragraph develop the topic sentence. Similarly， the body of an essay consists of a number of paragraphs that discuss and support the ideas given in the introductory （引导的） paragraph. Finally， a concluding sentence （结束句） ——whether a restatement， conclusion， or observation——ends the paragraph. The essay， too， has a concluding paragraph which ends the essay logically and satisfactorily. Although there are some exceptions （例外）， most well written expository （说明文的） paragraphs and essays are similar in structure.

可以看出，在比较相同点的时候，常用到similarly，also，too，in the same case，in spite of the difference等这样的词语。

European Football and American Football

Although European football is the parent of American football， the two games show several major differences. European football， sometimes called association football or soccer， is played in 80 countries， making it the most widely played sport in the world. American football， on the other hand， is popular only in North America （the United States and Canada）。 Soccer is played by eleven players with a round ball. Football， also played by eleven players in somewhat different positions （位置） on the field， is played with an elongated （拉长的） round ball. Soccer has little body contact （接触） between players and therefore needs no special protective equipment. Football， in which players make the greatest use of body contact to stop a running ball-carrier and his teammates， needs special protective equipment. In soccer， the ball is advanced toward the goal by kicking it or by butting （顶） it with the head. In American football， on the other hand， the ball is passed from hand to hand or carried in the hands across the opponents （对手） goal. These are just a few of the features which distinguish （区别） association and American football.

这是一篇用比较不同点的手法写的说明文。从文章中可以看出：however，on the other hand，in contrast，but，nevertheless等表示转折的词语常用来引导对不同点的比较。

4.定义法（definition）

定义法也是英语说明文中常用的写作手法，特别是在对具体事物概念进行说明时经常使用。定义法的基本要素是定义句。英语中常见定义句的模式是：

被定义对象is所属类别+限制性定语

可以看出，定义句中限制性定语越详细，定义就越精确，比如：

A bat is a small mouse-like animal that flies at night and feeds on（以……为食品）fruit and insects but is not a bird.

其实，在英—英词典中，对英语单词的英文解释就是定义法的典型例子。比如，看看Longman词典对student和teacher的定义是很有意思的：A student is a person who is studying at a place of education or training. A teacher is a person who gives knowledge or skill to sb. as a profession （专业）。

5.顺序法（sequence of time， space and process）

顺序法是指按时间、空间或过程的顺序进行说明的一种写作手法。比如按照时间顺序介绍一个科学家的生平，用空间顺序阐述逐渐开发西部的重要意义，用过程顺序法解释葡萄酒的生产过程等等。

下面这篇学生作文就是用顺序法写成的：

Coal

Coal underwent （经受） many changes before it became the bright， brittle （脆的）， black substance which we now use. During ancient times （在上古时代）， when the earth enjoyed a very warm and wet climate， the land was covered with large forests and big plants. As time went on， the ground changed and began to sink （下沉） a little. These very large numbers of trees and vegetables received a deposit （沉淀） of sand and clay. This layer of sand and clay pressed upon the layer beneath and prevented it from contact with air. These trees and plants received the pres sure and changed its appearance.

Generations after generations （几世纪后）， as the ground kept gradually sinking， another layer of sand and clay was again deposited （积聚） above the layers already formed. A great pressure was thus exerted （作用） and the peat （泥煤） was changed into the black and brittle substance which is known as coal.

Coal is a kind of mineral which is formed by nature as above stated. It is an important industrial material and is chiefly used as fuel. It is very valuable in the industrial world. The place where coal deposit is called a coal mine （煤矿）。 In China， coal mines are largely found in the north-west part of the country. Shanxi is a famous province for producing coal. It has the most coal of China.

6.分类法（classification）

分类法是将写作对象进行分类说明的一种写作手法。比如：著名的英国哲学家弗朗西斯·培根（Francis Bacon）在其脍炙人口的《谈读书》（Of Studies）一文中就用到了分类法：

Some books are to be tasted， others to be swallowed， and some few to be chewed and digested， that is， some books are to be read only in parts， others to be read， but not curiously， and some few to be read wholly， and with diligence and attention. Some books also may be read by deputy， and extracts made of them by others； but that would be only in the less important arguments， and the meaner sort of books…

参考译文：书有可浅尝者，有可吞食者，少数则须咀嚼消化。换言之，有只须读其部分者，有只须大体涉猎者，少数则须全读，读时须全神贯注，孜孜不倦。书亦可请人代读，取其所需摘要，但只限题材较次或价值不高者……

——转摘自《英汉翻译教程》（张培基等）

可见，如果能够根据具体情况，选用合适的写作手法，就可为文章增添无穷的魅力。

除了上述提到的6种展开英语说明文主题的写作方法之外，还有因果法、归纳法等其他方法。但相比之下，对于中学生来说，上述6种方法是首先值得掌握的。另外必须指出的是：在一篇文章中往往是以一种写作手法为主，同时辅以其他写作手法。有时，甚至会几种写作手法混用而不分主次。因此，必须根据具体情况，选用合适的展开主题的写作手法，才能写出优秀的英语说明文。

【复习要点】

1、了解命题作文与半命题作文的区别

2、掌握人物外貌描写与心理描写方法

3、学习一人一事与一人几事的写法；

4、掌握描写场面，记叙活动的方法；

5、掌握定点观察，描写景物的方法；

6、学会参观记、游记的写法；

7、掌握描写动物、植物和物品的记叙文的写法。

（一）写人

1、掌握人物外表描写的方法

要介绍一个人，首先要把这个人的外貌特征讲清楚。外貌特征，一般指人的长相、身材、衣着、动作、语言和神态。描写时，一定要写出人物的特点。所谓特点，就是这个人与其他人不同的地方。

2、掌握人物心理描写的方法。

比较细致地对人物的思想感情和内心活动进行描写，称为心理描写。心理描写，主要写人物的内心活动，即人物心里想些什么，尤其要写好莱坞人物在特定环境中的内心矛盾、斗争。心理描写有正面描写和侧面描写两种方法。

正面描写，也叫直接描写，这是常用的方法，一般有以下三种：

一是借用作者的笔让人物倾吐自己的思想，抒发自己的真情实感。常用在第一人称“我”身上，《十六年前的回忆》就是这种方法。

二是直接、客观地分析描写人物内心活动，对文章中的人物的思想活动及产生这种想法的原因等进行合理推测。如《穷人》一文就是这种方法。

三是用回忆或梦境、幻觉来寄托人物的情思。如《凡卡》中，凡卡只能借助回忆、梦境来表达内心情感。

侧面描写，也叫间接描写，主要借助环境、景物、天气等进行烘托。如《十里长街送总理》中的环境描写。

3、掌握一人一事的记叙文的写法。

一人一事是写作的基本功。用一件事写人，一定要弄明白“一件事”所包含的意思。用一件事写人，一定要把这件事情发生的时间、地点、人物和事情的起因、经过和结果都写清楚，对这件事的相关内容进行“插叙”或“补叙”，但要注意略写。

4、掌握一人几事记叙文的写法。

注意：一是所选的几件事都必须表现同一个人的同一个特点，不能一件事表现一个特点。二是所选的几件事最好不在同一个场合，内容不大同小异，应一件比一件深刻、深入。如《我的伯父鲁迅先生》中就讲了几件事，一件比一件深刻。

（二）叙事

1、掌握记叙一件事的方法。

所谓叙事，就是以完整地叙述一件事的发生、发展、结局来表达作者的思想感情的一种文体。要把一件事情写清楚，有三种方法：一是按事情发展顺序写；二是按时间的推移顺序写；三是空间位置的变换顺序写。无论按哪种顺序都必须交代清楚“六要素”。

2、掌握记叙几件事的方法。

记叙几件事必须围绕一个中心来写，不能几件事有几个中心。要写好文章，要注意几件事间的衔接、过渡。

3、掌握描写场面的方法。

要写好场面，离不开观察。观察时要有目的，有重点，有顺序。场面描写以“动”为主，要刻画特定环境中的活动，使整个场面有静有动、有声有色、形象真实而富浓厚的生活气息。场面有两种情况：一是自己参加进去的；二是自己看到的场面。描写场面，要有一定的线索，一定的顺序，常用以下几种方法：一是由主要的到次要的；二是定点观察，按空间顺序描写，按一定的方位顺序去表达；三是采用移步换景法，按自己活动的顺序去观察。

4、掌握记叙活动的方法。

活动是指有目的、有计划、有组织、有准备、有许多人参加的一系列行为的总称。记叙活动，开头也要和记叙文一样，先交代一下活动的时间、地点和人物，接着写活动的开始、经过和结果，重点是写活动的经过。

（三）写景状物

1、掌握定点观察、描写景物的方法。

写景状物就是指在观察的基础上，把自然景色或一些动物、植物、建筑物和其它物品描写，陈述出来的写作方法。

观察是写景状物的基础，观察时一定要确立好观察点，固定了观察点，对观察对象按一定顺序进行观察注意景物出现的顺序和变化。

观察时要讲求方法，写景顺序有四种：一是按景物方位来写，由远及近，由近及远，由里到外，由外到里，由上到下，由下到上等；二是按时间顺序写；三是按景物类别写；四是按人们认识事物的规律来写。

2、掌握参观记、游记的写法。

写这类文章要注意以下四点：

一是在文章的开头要简明扼要地交代清楚参观的时间、地点、人物、对象、目的。

二是一定要把参观的过程写清楚。 三是参观记结尾可谈点参观后的感受工收获。

四是要做到点面结合，既要突出“点”，又要用“面”作陪衬。

写游记时，要学会取舍材料。有特点或印象深刻的要详写，一般的景物要略写。

3、掌握描写动物、植物和物品记叙文的写法。

写好动物要注意四点：

第一、抓住动物的外形特征写；

第二、抓住动物的生活习性写；

第三、抓住动物鸣叫的声音写；

第四、写出动物与人的关系。

写好植物要注意：

第一、要着眼于各种植物特征；

第二、注意植物的形态、颜色、气味及生长变化情况；

第三、要按一定顺序来写；

第四、记叙植物随着生长环境的变化而发生的变化；

第五、可以运用拟人、比喻或想象等手法作动态描写。 第六、要带着感情去写。

写物品要注意以下四点：

第一、要细心观察，抓住物品的整体、局部、细节和特征；

第二、要写清物品的结构；

第三、要交代清楚物品的来历和用途；

第四、要融进对物品听感情；

4、掌握借景抒情和托物言志的方法。

要做到写文章景中含情，情中有景，情景交融，必须根据感情抒发的需要，选择最能表达自己感情的景物并抓住物点进行详细具体，生动形象的描绘。

要熟练说理的艺术，必须懂得基本的论证方法，就事论理法的论证的方法。写作议论文如果不善说理，也就是不善论证 。所谓论证，就是运用典型的论据来阐明论点和证明论点的方法，可以说，论证方法运用 恰当，论点、论据之间的逻辑关系紧密，论文也就深刻有力，下面介绍一些常见的论 证方法。

所谓就事论理法，就是人们常说的用事例进行论证，通过对具体事例的分析，揭示其蕴含的 普遍意义。这种方法可以运用正面事例进行论证，也可以运用反面事例进行论证，如：

《小议“知错就改”》

廉颇与蔺相如的故事大家都知道吧！渑池会上，蔺相如立了功，回国后，赵王 任命他做上卿，位在廉颇之上。廉颇不服气，瞧不起蔺相如，还说要羞辱他。而蔺相如不予 理会，以国家大事为重。廉颇听说以后，觉得蔺相如很宽厚，就赤膊背着荆条亲自到他家请 罪。他们从此成了同生共死的朋友。这就是传颂千古的“将相和”。

蔺相如的宽宏大量暂且不说，廉颇的知错就改就很令人佩服。

人无完人，这是大家都相信的，每一个人都或多或少有一些小毛病和错误，但很多人的小 毛病和错误都没能改掉，理由是：改不了。有的人明知自己错了，却不想去改，也许 碍于面子，出于自尊心，也就将错就错了。这些人都没能像廉将军那样知错就改。难道廉将 军就没有自尊心吗？只要想改正错误，其它的因素就不重要了。只是人们没有意识到知错就 改的必要性。

千里之堤，毁于蚁穴。这已经是听得耳根都生茧子的一句话。如果开始有了蚂蚁，那怕是多 一些，能够被除去，那么也不至于千里之堤都毁了吧！人有错误和缺点没关系，只要下决心 去改正，那就会日臻完善的。如果不去改正，天长日久就会因一错再错而铸成大错，到那 时就悔之晚矣。

鲁迅先生小时候，有一次为了给母亲抓药上学迟到了，受到老师批评（老师是不知情的）。自 那天起，鲁迅再也没有迟到过，仍然天天去抓药，却总是早早的到书塾去。他当时并没因为 有理由，而且是正当理由便不去改正它。这也是知错就改的一个好例子。

总之，知错就改有利于自己的提高，要做到这一点，既容易也不容易，关键是看你怎样面对 人生，面对自己的过失。终身求善知美者必以闻过修身为大德；否则，诿过贻患，不但注定 成不了大事，还可能引来蚁穴溃堤的难堪。（孙楠）

在这个习作中，作者运用了将相和的故事和鲁迅先生小时候的故事这样两个正面典型事例 来证明“知错就改”的重要性。像前面我们提到的习作《坚持就是胜利》一文中，还运用 了反面的事例进行论证。这都是就事论理法的运用。
