2024期末考试英语记叙文写作指导

全文共 5333 字

+ 加入清单

记叙文是记人叙事的文章,它主要是用于说明事件的时间、背景、起因、过程及结果,即我们通常所说的五个" W "( what, who, when, where, why )和一个" H "( how )。记叙文的重点在于"述说"和"描写",因此一篇好的记叙文要叙述条理清楚,描写生动形象。下面就谈谈英语记叙文的特点和写好记叙文的基本要领。

一、记叙文的特点

1. 叙述的人称

英语的记叙文一般是以第一或第三人称的角度来叙述的。用第一称表示的是由叙述者亲眼所见、亲耳所闻的经历。它的优点在于能把故事的情节通过"我"来传达给读者,使人读后感到真实可信,如身临其境。如:

The other day, I was driving along the street. Suddenly, a car lost its control and ran directly towards me fast. I was so frightened that I quickly turned to the left side. But it was too late. The car hit my bike and I fell off it.

用第三人称叙述,优点在于叙述者不受"我"活动范围以内的人和事物的限制,而是通过作者与读者之外的第三者,直接把故事中的情节展现在读者面前,文章的客观性很强。如:

Little Tom was going to school with an umbrella, for it was raining hard. On the way, he saw an old woman walking in the rain with nothing to cover. Tom went up to the old woman and wanted to share the umbrella with her, but he was too short. What could he do? Then he had a good idea.

2. 动词的时态

在记叙文中,记和叙都离不开动词。所以动词出现率最高,且富于变化。记叙文中用得最多的是动词的过去的,这是英语记叙文区别于汉语记叙文的关键之处。英语写作的优美之处就在于这些动词时态的变化,正是这一点才使得所记、所叙有鲜活的动态感、鲜明的层次感和立体感。

3. 叙述的顺序

记叙一件事要有一定的顺序。无论是顺叙、倒叙、插叙还是补叙,都要让读者能弄清事情的来龙去脉。顺叙最容易操作,较容易给读者提供有关事情的空间和时间线索。但这种方法也容易使文章显得平铺直叙,读起来平淡乏味。倒叙、插叙、补叙等叙述方法能有效地提高文章的结构效果,让所叙之事跌宕起伏,使读者在阅读时思维产生较大的跳跃,从而为文章所吸引,深入其中。但这些方法如果使用不当,则容易弄巧成拙,使文章结构散乱,头绪不清,让读者不知所云。

4. 叙述的过渡

过渡在上下文中起着承上启下、融会贯通的作用。过渡往往用在地点转移或时间、事件转换以及由概括说明到具体叙述时。如:

In my summer holidays, I did a lot of things. Apart form doing my homework, reading an English novel, watching TV and doing some housework, I went on a trip to Qingdao. It is really a beautiful city. There are many places of interest to see. But what impressed me most was the sunrise.

The next morning I got up early. I was very happy because it was a fine day. By the time I got to the beach, the clouds on the horizon were turning red. In a little while, a small part of the sun was gradually appearing. The sun was very red, not shining. It rose slowly. At last it broke through the red clouds and jumped above the sea, just like a deep-red ball. At the same time the clouds and the sea water became red and bright.

What a moving and unforgettable scene!

5. 叙述与对话

引用故事情节中主要人物的对话是记叙文提高表现力的一种好方法。适当地用直接引语代替间接的主观叙述,可以客观生动地反映人物的性格、品质和心理状态,使记叙生动、有趣,使文章内容更加充实、具体。试比较下面两段的叙述效果:

I was in the kitchen, and I was cooking something. Suddenly I heard a loud noise from the front. I thought maybe someone was knocking the door. I asked who it was but I heard no reply. After a while I saw my cat running across the parlor. I realized it was the cat. I felt released.

这本来应是一段故事性很强的文字,但经作者这么一写,就不那么吸引人了。原因是文中用的都是叙述模式,没有人物语言,把"悬念"给冲淡了。可作如下调整:

I was in the kitchen cooking something. "Crash!" a loud noise came from the front. Thinking someone was knocking at the door, I asked, "Who?" No reply. After a while, I saw my cat running across the parlor. "Its you." I said, quite released.

二、写好记叙文的基本要领

1. 头绪分明,脉络清楚

写好记叙文,首先要头绪分明,脉络清楚,明确文章要求写什么。要对所写的事件或人物进行分析,弄清事件发生、发展一直到结束的整个过程,然后再收集选取素材。这些素材都应该跟上述五个" W "和一个" H "有关。尽管不是每篇记叙文里都必须包括这些" W "和" H ",但动笔之前,围绕五个" W "和" H "进行构思是必不可少的。

2. 突出中心,详略得当

在文章的框架确定后,对支持故事的素材的选取是很关键的。选材要注意取舍,应该从表现文章主题的需要出发,分清主次,定好详略。要突出重点,详写细述那些能表现文章主题的重要情节,略写粗述那么非关键的次要情节。面面俱到反而使情节罗列化,使人不得要领。这一点是写好记叙文要解决的一个基本问题,也需要一定的技巧。如:

One night a man came to our house and told me, "There is a family with eight children. They have not eaten for days." I took some food with me and went.

When I finally came to that family, I saw the faces of those little children disfigured (破坏外貌) by hunger. There was no sorrow or sadness in their faces, just the deep pain of hunger.

I gave the rice to the mother. She divided the rice in two, and went out, carrying half the rice. When she came back, I asked her, "Where did you go?" she gave me this simple answer, "To my neighbors - they are hungry also!"

3. 用活语言,准确生动

记叙文要用具体的事件和生动的语言对人、事、物加以叙述。一篇好的记叙文的语言既要准确、生动,又要表现力强,这样才能把人、事描写得具体生动,其可读性才强。试比较下面一篇例文修改的前后效果。

原文:

One day Xiaoqiang was wandering away. He was soon lost among people and traffic. He could not find the way back home and started crying. Just then, two young students who were passing by found him standing alone in front of a shop and crying. They went up to Xiaoqiang and asked him what had happened. Xiaoqiang told them how he got lost and where he lived. The two students decided to take him home. Mother was pleased to see Xiaoqiang come back safe and sound. She invited the two students into the house and gave them some money, but they didnt take it. She served them with tea but they left.

修改后:

The other day, five-year-old Xiaoqiang left home alone and wandered happily in the street. After some time, he felt hungry so he wanted to go back home. But he found he was lost among the crowded people and heavy traffic. When he could not find the way home, he started and crying. Just then, two young students who were passing by from school found him sanding crying in front of a shop. They immediately went up to him.

"Little boy, why are you standing here crying?" they asked.

"I want Mom, I go home." said the boy, still crying.

"Dont worry, well send you home."

And they spent the next two hours looking for the boys house. With the help of a policeman, they finally found it.

When the worried mother saw her son come back safe and sound, she was so thankful and she invited the students into her house. Gratefully, she offered them some money, saying it was a way to express her thanks, but the young students firmly refused it and left without even a cup of tea.

篇1: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”。

篇2:大学英语六级考试作文模板:文凭与知识

全文共 1044 字

+ 加入清单

It is generally believed that a high diploma guarantees a promising future. Some people identify high diplomas with profound knowledge and exceptional competence. Companies also tend to emphasize the academic achievement of a job candidate. Like it or not, there does exist a social reality – the higher diplomas one gets, the more popular he becomes。

On the contrary, other people claim that a high diploma doesn’t automatically translate into knowledge. A diploma, in their eyes, is only the acknowledgment of one’s educational experience rather than a guarantee of one’s ability. Therefore, we can never measure the depth of one’s knowledge by the grade of one’s diploma. Besides, many knowledgeable people don’t have a high diploma. Take Bill Gates for example. His dropping out of college cannot deny the fact that he is one of the world’s most learned men。

So I must say no one should ever equate a diploma with knowledge, because a diploma is nothing but a proof of a short-term study while genuine knowledge needs one’s lifelong devotion。

篇10:2024关于英语图画作文写作方法

全文共 724 字

+ 加入清单

英语一考生要在三十分钟内写出160-200个词汇的文章,英语二的考生需要完成150个词汇左右的文章。写作时要求主题突出、结构清晰、文字通顺、连贯性好,祛除语法错误。在考试过程中,考生能在有限时间内详细解读考题设问要求,并匠心独运的构想、拟题、列提纲,最后完成一篇考场佳作,这需要前期十分认真的备考。

在写作中,考生要特别注意文章的中心思想是否切题,论据是否足够充分,如不充分则要对论据详细展开。句语句、段与段连接要自然,逻辑关系清晰明晰,切忌不要出现与主题无关的句子。人称、时态等细节处要保持一致,单词拼写、大小写以及标点也要注意到位。

由于近些年图画作文较热,是考研英语写作中出现频率最高的一类文体,我们来重点学习一下这种文体的写作方法

图画作文通常是给出一幅或多幅漫画或图片,所给图画多反映当前的热点社会现象或热点社会现实。这类作文难度较大,要求考生首先仔细剖析图画内容,并通过文字形式将图中所包罗的思想内容准确无误地表达出来。大家可将此类作文转化为三段或四段式的提纲作文写作。

1、认真审题

在审题时,考生要在认真剖析图画所反映的内容以及出题者出题意图的前提下,通过表层含义剖析图画真正想要说明的问题是什么,深入研究图画的表层含义和深层含义,从而挖掘出其深层含义以确定文章的中心思想。

2、确定写作重点

认真审题后,考生就要确定写作重点了,根据剖析和研究的结果列出提纲并安排段落。确定每一个段落的主题和写作重点,考生要根据题目要求对选材进行筛选。

3、确定写作提纲

篇11:小升初英语写作简单技巧

全文共 1130 字

+ 加入清单

导语:英语小升初入学考试中的作用越来越大,小六的学生英语水平差距不大,如何才能在小升初英语考试中脱颖而出,小升初英语写作成为关键,下面是小编收集的如何写出高分英语作文方法,欢迎大家阅读!

书面表达是考查学生英语综合水平的一个重要途径,很多孩子英语口语好,却无法写好英语作文。而现实情况却是从初一甚至从小学开始就已经有了对书面表达的考查,所以练习英语写作也是我们学而思小升初课程的重要环节,帮孩子们打好基础。

1、语法:这是现在孩子们在英语写作中丢分最多的一项。

(1)写完作文后要记得检查:语法知识需要靠我们平时一步步积累,但是孩子们要注意在写完作文之后一定要细心检查自己的作文,一些学过的语法点不要再错了。

(2)避免使用自己拿不准的句子:很多孩子喜欢用长句、复合句等。可是又对这些句子掌握得不是很牢固,所以很容易出错。一切拿不准的词和句子,都应该使用自己会的简单句和简单词,这样才能给考官留下好印象。

2、格式:拿到作文题,一定要把握好题目的要求,看清是哪种类型的题目,确定好相应的格式。

常考的题如日记,日记的格式就是需要在第一行左方顶格写上日期和星期,右方写上天气,然后再开始写正文。需要提醒大家的是,日记基本上都是描写已经发生过的事情,所以孩子们注意一定要用一般过去时哦!

还有一类常考的作文题型就是书信,书信的格式更需要大家注意:

3rd April 2008

Dear Mr. I

How are you these days? I will go to shanghai for my holiday.

Yours truly,

Nancy

3、词汇:如果在文章中能够正确使用一些高级词汇和词组,而不再是简单词汇,这会让老

师耳目一新。例如:如果要孩子们来写holiday。很多孩子们一开始就会写I went to …… last year. 用went就很大众化了,但是如果用take a trip这个词组就会显得你的英语水平跟其他人不一样了!对于词汇这个点,我向孩子们提两点建议:

(1)词汇需要平时积累,但是大家积累的时候一定要注意灵活使用学过的词。大家已经学过很多词组和单词了,可是大家都不会拿出来用,原因就是在于大家学的时候只记得了它的意思,没有认识该怎么使用,该在什么情况下使用。所以大家以后学习词汇的时候一定要翻翻词典学习例句,自己也拿来造个句子,要知道自己以后该怎么用。

(2)学习语言并不是纸上谈兵,练习写作也应该要多加练习。熟能生巧,练得多了,自然也就会知道什么时候用什么词,该怎么写作文了。

4、书写:这一点看似不重要,却最影响老师对你作文的整体评价。我们不要求要做到美观,但那是一定要整洁、认真。这样老师也能很快读懂你的文章,更能对你作文产生好的印象。

篇12:2024年6月英语六级作文写作技巧

全文共 2170 字

+ 加入清单

导语:英语写作除了要求大家在词汇量和语法上有一定的积累外,也需要大家注意总结一些常用的写作技巧。下面是yjbs作文网小编为您收集整理的资料,希望能够对您有所帮助。

一、“功能段落”突破CET写作

诚然,六级写作是需要背模板的,但绝不是盲目地背。

整篇背诵模板不是最有效的方法,因为模板的写作思路是固定的,然而很多时候试题的命题思路可能与所背模板思路不同。因此,可能导致“所背非所考”,甚至导致文不对题,生搬硬套。

但是,无论六级写作话题如何变化,一般都对应三个或两个汉语提纲。只要按提纲要求去写相应的内容段落,就做到了紧扣主题。历年写作提纲可以总结为六种功能段落:现象描述、危害分析(弊)、原因分析、建议措施、观点阐述(观点的本质为利弊:支持方观点等于分析“利”,反方观点等于分析“弊”)、意义阐述(利)。

如果能够掌握住六种功能段落的写作实际就掌握了六级考试写作考题的最本质特征。那样的话,无论题目如何变化,我们准备都是有的放矢的。反观,死背模板容易导致生搬硬套,甚至文不对题。

二、写作短期提分方略

在了解了六级考试在命题特点的基础上,考生在备考阶段最需要准备的是两个内容:思路和表达。思路解决怎么写的问题,表达解决写什么的问题。如果拿到一个作文题目,你知道应该按照什么思路去写,又知道应该写什么表达,这篇作文就已经成功了一半。

表达积累

表达分为四个层次:词句段篇。其中篇章层面只要按照提纲要求去组织文章即可,因此篇章方面不足为虑。段落方面按照“功能段落”的六种形式去识别,也小菜一碟。

背写:思路+表达

很多同学考前也在背,背的滚瓜烂熟,脱口而出,觉得自己水平很牛!上了考场也顺利将文章写了出来,却得了一个很低的分数,为什么?因为单词都拼错了。请牢记:口头背诵得再好不等于能够写对。背写是提高写作和翻译唯一也是最有效的方法。

那么,背写什么内容哪?答案是思路和表达。思路上文中已有论述,遣词和造句的表达方面应该紧密结合功能段落来背诵有效句式和用词。考生不必刻意追求适用难词,但可以将常见词汇稍作替换:如,

exceedingly, extremely, intensely替换very;

an army of/a great many/a host of 替换a lot of;

advancement 替换 development;

positive, favorable, promising(有希望的), perfect, pleasurable, excellent, outstanding, superior替换good;

give rise to, lead to, result in, trigger 替换cause;

harbor the idea that, take the attitude that, hold the view that替换think;

beneficial, rewarding替换helpful;

bear in mind that替换remember;

enjoy, possess替换have;

shopper, client, consumer, purchaser替换customer……

表达精彩体现在三个方面:遣词、造句、连贯。

三、复习安排建议

总体原则:先背再写、阶段总结、适当模拟。

先背再写:基础较差同学一定要先背一些功能句式和教材相关范文,然后模仿该作文的思路和表达去写。背写的目的是积累语言表达实力,同时练习书写的公正和优美。建议书写较差的考生买本英语字帖练一下书写,也许你会有意外的惊喜。

阶段总结:每过一周就要问自己几个问题:所背诵的表达可以用来写什么类型的文章?该类文章的相关词汇或表达有什么?关键词如何避免重复?请记住:没有复习,没有巩固。

适当模拟:在熟练掌握背写了六种功能段落的思路和表达之后,可以结合适当题目在写作中运用所讲所背所总结提分词汇、句式。建议大家能够灵活运用,做到一例多用。

附注:

中心句放开端

文章中心句是整个文章的主题和写作围绕的中心,通常应该放在段落的开端,这样一方面能够让阅卷老师一眼看出文章表达的主旨意思,起到开门见山的作用;另一方面可以使文章条理层次更加清晰,逻辑性强,文章的整体结构合理。中心句在作文中可以起到承接上下文的作用,放在段尾也可以起到总结全文的作用。这一方法对于写作初学者来说还是有一定困难的,因此在六级考试中,为了减少不必要的错误和损失,大家尽量将中心句放到文章的开头以保万无一失。

关键词要具体

文章的中心句一般是通过关键词来表现和限制文章的主旨思想的,所以为了突出主题,关键词需要尽量写得具体些。这里对“具体”的要求主要体现在两个方面:一方面是要具体到能限制和区分文章段落层次的发展;另一方面是要具体到能说明段落发展的方法。精确仔细地突出关键词是清楚地表达文章主旨、写好段落中心句的重要前提之一,这对考生来说有一定难度。

设问扩充内容

中心句及关键词确定后,文章的大概框架已经清晰了,这时候就需要选择和主题有关的信息和素材来填充这个框架。实质上,针对关键词测试每一个所选择的素材就是一个分类的过程。有一种常用的行文方法就是句子展开前加以设问,然后解答,即设问-解答(why-because)的方法,利用问题引出自己需要的话题再加以解答表现自己的观点,同时紧紧围绕主题。

篇14:初中英语作文写作技巧精选

全文共 1003 字

+ 加入清单

要点:实际上中考英语写作就等于两个字,翻译!因为中考英语写作一般会给出几个要点,要求必须在文章中有所体现。文章写的再好,只要缺少要点就会扣分。所以要点,也就是文章的第二段内容,要做到全,围绕中心。

结构:中考最流行的结构就是三段式,深受各地区中考英语写作阅卷老师的喜爱。为什么尼?因为这种结构十分清晰。“观点——要点——总结”让人一目了然。三段式的第一段:简单明了,开门见山,不超过2句话,如,我们想表达小强很强壮,第一段直接说XQis extremely strong。观点明确,这一句足矣。

第二段:分2-3点说为什么他强壮。1. 每天吃10顿饭,He has ten mealseveryday!详举吃的是什么。2. 每天运动2小时,He does exercise 2 hours a day!详举做了什么运动。

第三段:经过第二段的论证,可以得出结论。但请注意,不能完全照抄第一段,要有升华。也可以提出希望和建议等。如,Howstrong and robust XQ is!I hope to be him one day!

逻辑:这里的逻辑实际指的就是逻辑词。最常用的就是表示递进的,转折的,总结的逻辑词等。递进:除了first,second,third,finally等还可以使用高级点的,如first of all(首先),in addition,whatsmore,moreover(都是另外的意思),in a word,all inall(表示总结的)。转折:but,yet,however等。真正有经验的阅卷老师会很注意这些逻辑连接词,因为这些词体现了这个文章的思路。

语法:其他几点都不是硬性的要求,不那样做不能说是错,只能说是不好,但是语法却是硬性的。如,单词的使用,时态等。

亮点:当我们将前八个字都做得很完美的时候也只能得到一个二等文的上。要想得到一等文,最后两个字,亮点至关重要。大家设想如果我们是阅卷老师。有两篇写人美丽的作文摆在我们面前,都是结构清晰的三段式,要点都很全,都用了一些逻辑词,都没有语法错误,但是A篇只用了beautiful,good-looking,B篇却用到了attractive,charming,catching等,我坚信正常人都会给B篇高分的。这些高级一点的词汇,词组,句型便是我们得到一等文的最有力的绝招。所以,以后写英语作文要养成一般词汇限量用的好习惯。

删除诸如"who is”或"that is"类的关系代词,变从句为短语,例:

句:The novel, which is written in three parts, told a story that took place in the Middle Ages.

修改后:The three-part novel told a story set in the Middle Ages.

注:把句中的"three parts"改用形容词来表达,节省了四个不必要的单词"which is written in"。我们经常可以将关系代词如"that"去掉,这只会引起最少的变动。

篇17:2024年英语说明文写作技巧

全文共 411 字

+ 加入清单

英语说明文写作技巧说明文是阐述事物的特征、本质、性能、结构、用途或科学原理的一种文体。其说明的对象可以是具体的,如:自然环境,仪表设备等;也可以是抽象的,如概念定律等。

说明文的写作相对于论说文来说,有一定的套路可循,因此不是十分复杂。说明科技方面的内容常用定义法、比较对比法、分类法、因果法等;说明自然环境方面的内容常用时间次序法、分类法等。当然,随着对象的不同,具体应该采用的方法也会有所不同。

说明文的写作应该注意的事项有下面几点:

1.语言简明扼要,通俗易懂,避免夸张华丽的辞藻,要把真实的一面展现在读者面前。

2.说明时一定要把握一个中心主题。说明文中细枝末节较多,但不能喧宾夺主。

3.说明的次序非常重要。合理的次序会使文章条理清楚,脉络明晰。因此,练习时可以尝试不同的次序进行写作,找出最合理的一种。

4.由于说明文写实性较强,有时难免会让人感到没有生气。因此,可以适当使用一些比喻、拟人等修辞手段,来增加文章的色彩。

英语书面表达是体现个人水平的一个主要因素,也是各种考试考查的重要内容。怎样才能提高英语写作能力呢?方法是多种多样的,但最重要的是夯实学生的语言基本功,打好坚实的基础。语言的基本功在写作教学中体现为准确应用词汇和正确使用句型结构的能力,语句的组织衔接和谋篇布局的能力。在学生真正地掌握语汇用法的前提下,比较行之有效的方法是把句型教学放在写作情景中进行教授,培养学生的应用和运用能力。

在句型结构教学中,应尽多设计一些写作情景,使句型结构服务于教学,这样不仅提高了学生的写作兴趣,也加强了教学的目的性和针对性。为了提高写作能力和写作水平,本文主要归纳和总结了英语写作中常用的一些重点句型。希望能给同行们在教学中,学生在学习上有一些帮助。

以形式主语it引导的句型。

句型1.

It (so) happened(chanced) that +clause. = sb. happened /chanced to do sth. =sb.did sth. by chance. 如:

篇20:2024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。
