篇1:高考英语记叙文写作方法

全文共 1008 字

+ 加入清单

记叙文是以写人、记事、状物为主要内容,以叙述和描写为表达方式的文章。

以写人为主的记叙文,应该注意肖像描写、行动描写、语言描写、心理描写以及对细节的描写,考生应根据写作的要求,灵活掌握,突出重点。

以写事为主的记叙文,应该注意交待六要素(时间、地点、人物、事件、原因、结果),应该注意描写先后顺序以及记事的相对完整,注意把握好事情的开始、发展、高潮及结局。

以与景为主的记叙文,应该注意景物的主要特征,景物描写的层次,以及人与物的情感交融。

记叙文写作要点如下:

1. 明确写作目的和叙述的中心思想,段落叙述始终围绕着主题而展开,避免空间的叙述和与主题无关的内容。

2. 一篇好叙述文需要直接或间接表达以下六个问题,即:when?该事发生的时间, where?该事发生的地点,who?人物角色是谁,what?发生的是什么事,why?该事发生的原因,以及how?事件的结果是如何造成的等等。

3. 一篇记叙文,无论长短如何都应该是一个完全独立的事实,因此,在下笔时必须明确:该从何处开始叙述,该在何处结束叙述,以及应该提供何种事实才能使叙述完整。

4. 写作顺序可以采用“顺叙”、“倒叙”和“穿插叙述”的方法,但初学者最好采用“顺叙”的方法进行训练,以情节发生时间的先后为序。

记叙文高考指引

记叙文是高考书面表达中比较常用的一种形式。

1)记叙文要写作者比较了解的人或事物。

2)仔细审题,看准题目要求,确定文章的主题。文章的内容、结构、层次及所用语言都应围绕主题进行。

3)具体详细地描述。要使文章有说服力,叙述就必须繁简疏密相间。详细具体的描写有助于读者对所叙述的人物或事件等有个深刻的印象。

4)写作时要避免句子单调、毫无花样。这就要求写作时长短句结合,注意衔接词的运用。

5)叙述要生动。要使文章叙述生动,具有吸引力,必须请注意词汇的选择,时态的运用以及上下文的一致问题。词语的运用应注意是否恰当、通顺、简洁和准确。时态的运用应注意上下文的相关性、连续性,要与表达的内容一致。

6)叙述的顺序。大多数情况下叙述都是按照事情的发展及时间的先后进行的,但有时也可以采用其它顺序,如倒叙、插叙等。

7)人称。一般说来,记叙文用第一人称或第三人称来叙述。用第一人称叙述的优点是:文章比较生动、形象,使读者有身临其境的感觉,因而加强了故事的真实感和感染力。其缺点是,描写的范围受到限制。一篇文章中,由于角色的变化,人称也要随之而变,但应注意前后一致性。

全文共 1130 字

自主招生又称自主选拔,是高校选拔录取工作改革的重要环节。一般通过考试后招生学校会与其签订招生考试合同,签订合同后,一般可享受降低10分至几十分录取的优惠政策。你是如何看待这一策略的呢?

Theres a heated discussion that universities should or should not independent recruitment of students test.

Some of my school students think that independent recruitment is right.Firstly,it can relieve the universities because it can save many procedures.Secondly,its the universities own right to do it.Because these universities can choose the students they like.

The rest of my schoolmates dont agree the independent recruitment of students test.First of all,it abandons the cultural advantage of our country and isnt good to spread our culture.Because the traditional recruitment method has its own benefit to the country and students.If we give up this way,we have to find an unknown way,which may sacrifice many students interest.Furthermore,it can mislead the basic education method.Because if most of universities recruit independently,many courses will be ignored.

I dont agree with the independent recruitment of students test.I think we should insist the successful and continuous recruitment methods because it proves to be true.

篇3:英语四级写作的应对方法

全文共 1223 字

+ 加入清单

写作包括两部分,一是要求在35分钟内写一篇150字左右的短文,二是要求在10分钟内写一个50--60字的便条。这两部分均为命题作文,作文内容与大学生的日常生活、学习都密切相关,另外也有社会热点问题,比如环保、旅游、健身等,题目理解起来都比较容易。

短文写作部分文体为议论文,一般采用三段式的结构,第一段为论点,第二段为论据,第三段为结论。最高要求为文章内容切题,思想表达清楚,论据充分,论证严密,基本无语言错误。要想写好一篇文章,应该注意一下写作步骤:

1.审题:作文评分的第一个要求就是内容切题,因此审题特别关键。专业四级作文都是命题作文,而且多有中文提示或提纲,所以你首先应了解命题的基本要求,理解题目的真正意图,然后确定提纲中的关键词及各要点间的逻辑,整理自己的思路,对自己所想到的内容进行组织和全面安排。尤其对要讨论的问题,该涉及的内容,所需的事实、例证、阐述、说明和总结等,在头脑中形成一个整体的构思。

2.组织段落:构思好之后,根据构思的提纲,运用选好的材料,恰当地运用连词,合理安排段落,使文章条理清楚、内容连贯。段落的组织主要是通过扩展句对主题句的支持或说明来进行的。各段的主题句在审题构思时就应基本形成,主题句确定下来,接着就是通过一系列的扩展句,来说明、论证或阐述主题句的思想。常见的段落展开方法有列举、举例、比较和对比、因果、叙述、归类、下定义等,考试时应灵活运用。

3.修改:也就是说要删除与主题不相干的内容,检查句子时态、语态等。特别应注意单词的正确拼写;字母大小写和标点符号;数的一致性(包括主语与谓语以及名词与其限定语的单复数一致性);指代关系(包括指代的一致性和代词的选用);动词形式(时态、语态、语气)等方面。

关于考试过程中短文写作的时间分配问题。我们知道,短文写作的时间为35分钟, 要力争写完写好, 这就要求考生做到有条不紊,忙而不乱,充分发挥自己应有的水平。建议按照如下的方案分配时间: 审题1~2分钟;组织素材, 细节和关键词: 4~5分钟;起草: 20~25分钟;修改定稿: 4~5分钟。

最后要说明的是,从某种意义上来说,专业四级考试作文有其固定的写作格式、结构,而对于固定的题型,有固定不变的表达法。因此,大家有理由相信只要训练方法得当,搞好写作是不难的。大家不妨试试多背范文和常用句型,包括各类型作文的开头、结尾句、中间展开、过渡句,以及比较、图表说明等的常用句型和表达法,然后自己多动笔写一写,只要按这样的方法进行练习,相信在一定时间内就可以在写作上取得满意的分数。因为是三段式作文,写作的时候一定注意第一段提出的论点要简洁明了,开门见山;第二段的论据要能充分说明论点,论证条理清楚;第三段的结论要水到渠成,切忌草率,严谨完整的结尾是取得高分的保证。

便条写作最主要的是注意格式正确,交待清楚,比如请柬、贺信、道歉函等,要注意称呼、正文、签名等的格式,一定要把相关的时间、地点、原因及主要事件内容交待清楚。

(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。

It is believed that education is an important way to improve citizens’ cultivation, as education is so vital, our government pays special attention on education, many policies have been advocated, college enrollment is on way of expanding, it is a good phenomenon for students, while the expansion also has negative side.

人们相信教育是提高城市居民素养的重要重要方法,正因为教育如此的重要,我们政府特别注重教育,提出了很多的方针,大学扩招正在进行中,这对学生来说是好的现象,然而扩招也有负面。

On the one hand, college expansion gives students more chances to get higher education. In China, there is a large population, every child should be educated according to the government’s policy, teenagers are forced to get education before high school. But every student wants to go to college and get the high education, they must pass the college entrance exam, still many students don’t have the chances. The expansion provides students more hopes, more students can have the chances to go to college.

一方面,大学扩招给学生带来了接受高等教育的更多机会。在中国存在很多人口,每个孩子都应该接受政府政策式的教育,青少年被强制接受九年教育。但是每个学生都想要上大学,接受高等教育,他们必须通过高考,但是仍然有很多同学没有上大学的机会。扩招给学生带来了希望,更多学生可以有机会上大学。

On another hand, the expansion also means the lower standard for students to go to college, which won’t bring students good teaching resource. For the purpose of making money, some schools lower their standard, they don’t make the relative change, thus not every student can have the fair chance to use the resource. This is not good for the improvement of the students.

另一方面,扩招同时意味着学生进大学的门槛的降低,这不会给学生带来好的教育资源。为了挣钱,一些学校降低了标准,它们不做出相应的改变,这样并不是每个学生都能有公平的机会去享受资源。这对学生的提高是不好的。

The expansion of college enrollment is good for students, while the government should supervise the schools to improve their teaching resource.

大学的扩招对学生来说是好的,然而政府应该监督学校去提高他们的教育资源。

Our university has the first level equipments and the most experienced teachers,also has the best students(laugh).I consider it to be a honor that Ive got a chance to study here and I sincerely hope that we could live wonderful lives in our campus!

篇12:小升初英语作文的写作技巧

全文共 3637 字

+ 加入清单

英语写作和汉语写作一样,要写出好文章除了要有好的内容外还少不了好的结构,而句子的好坏又取决于选词造句。小编收集了关于英语作文的写作技巧,欢迎阅读。

一、措辞

1、选择生动准确的词

词是语言的基本单位,人们要表达思想,就要选择适当的词语,这是写作的基本要求。

词可分为一般概念的词(general words)和具体概念的词(specific words)。表示一般概念的词含义模糊;表示具体概念的词含义明确,表达准确,生动形象。写作时合理地使用具体概念的词能够使句子表达的意思准确,内容生动,更富有感染力。试比较下面各组句子:

(l) A few houses were destroyed yesterday (general)

Five houses burnt down yesterday (specific)

(2)His relatives gave him two gifts(general)

His aunt and uncle gave hima watch and a Pen as the birthday gifts。(specific)

(3) Jack went to the window and looked at the crowd outside(general)

Jack tiptoed to the window and peeped into the room(specific)

上面各组句中,第一个句子抽象概括,给人以空泛的感觉:第二个句子用词具体,有个件,使人感到意思确切,生动逼真。

2、使用英语成语和习语

人们在长期使用语言的过程中,积累了大量的习惯表达法。这些成语、习语内涵丰富,语言生动活泼。文章中适当地使用这类短语,可避免语言的单调贫乏,使句子生动而富于内涵。如:

(l)George has lost his social position since his business failed.

可改为:George has come down in the world since his business failed

(2).Maybe you have time to go to the cinema,but I have more importavt businessto attend to.

可改为:Maybe you have time to go to the cinema,but I have other fish to fry.

3、用词的宽度

用词的宽度可以反映出写作者所掌握的词汇量。如果一个人掌握的词汇量大,那么当表达同一概念有不同的表达方法时,则可以换一种说法。如:

The teachers maintained that the students should give up love for the sake ofleaming Students,however,hold that fordidding love among college students is nogood.

这两句话里,谓语分别用了maintain和hold。如果将它们换为think,所表达的意思相同,但用词宽度则不如原文。这两句话中for the sake of,give uP,is no good等都是用词宽度的表现。

所以在英语写作中有意识地适当增加用词宽度既能体现学以致用的原则又能使文章取得良好效果。

二、句子的多样化

英语中,同一思想用不同句式表达,其效果会大不相同。要想写出好的文章,就要不断地变化句子的结构形式。

l、长短句交替使用

句子的长短是为表达思想服务的。英语短句结构简单,意思明白具有生动活泼而又干脆利索的表达效果,而长句结构复杂,信息丰富,能表达成熟的思想与复杂的概念。一味地使用长句或短句会使文章显得单调,乏味,从而影响文章的总体效果。科学地交替使用长短句使句子结构变化多样,不仅给文章带来顿挫起伏的语言美感,而且可以受到理想的修辞效果。请看下面的这段话:

She returned to her office.There was a note under the door. It was from Mr May.He said he was waiting for her in the coffee room.And he bad not found her sister.Hewas sorry to have missed her.

这段话用了一连串的短句,读起来单调呆板,平淡无味。为使文字更加生动,意思更加明确可改为:

When she returned to her office,the found a note from Mr May under the door.He said he was waiting for her in the coffee room and hadnt found her sister yet.Headded that he was sorry to have missed her.

修改后三个句子长短不一,读起来就给人以不同的感觉。

又如《大学英语》第一册第十课 Going Home,当汽车驶至 Brunsnick,车上的年轻人看见黄手帕时,出现了以下这两行文字:

Then,suddenly,all of the young people were up out of thelr seats,screamlng andshouting and cryin, doing small dances of joy.All except Vlngo.这两句话一长(23个词)一短(3个词),彼此衬托互为凸现。第一句的两个and和四个-ing词,把热闹、喧哗的气氛喧染极至,长句之后,蜂回路转,一个仅三个词的短句扑入读者的双目几乎沸腾的场面顿时凝固但其余音未绝,此时外表虽冷漠,内心却炙热难当。

2、句子开头的多样化

“主-谓-宾”、“主-系-表”是英语的基本句型,主语领先句也是用得最多的句型。写作中为避免形式单一,当句子可以用主语开头,同时又可以其它结构开头时,不妨变换一下。如:

(1)Defeated in the minor exchanges,I now play my queen of trumps.(分词短语做状语开头)

(2)There are two ways in which one can own a book.( there be句型开头)

(3)Equally important is a good habit of reading(表语开头)

以上各句都可以用主语开句,但在篇章中通过改变句子开头,文章就会疏落有致,语言形式丰富多采。

3、句子结构的多样化

写作中可以通过句型结构的变化来增添文采,强化表现力。如:

(l) The love of the liberty is the love of the others;the love of power ls thelove of ourselves.

(平行结构.这类结构整齐、紧凑;句子生动、鲜明,语义贯通、语势强劲有力。)

(2)The days when we suffered from oppression and exploitation are gone.(这样表达文字通顺,但语意不很突出。)

改为:Gone are the days when we suffered fron oppression andexploitation.

(采用倒装句结构后,充分体现出受剥削受压迫的人民解放后扬眉吐气的心情。)

三、观点切题结构合理

这是写作中最重要的要求之一它要求写作开门见山直入主题。如写一篇谈“健康重要性”的文章,提示是1、健康的重要性;2、保持健康的方法;3、我的看法。按要求文章应按三个自然段来写,而每段开头都必须是提示的内容,因此,三段可以这么开头:

l.Good health is important to everyone of us.

2.There are many ways which can help build up our health.

3.As for me,I like running as well as playing basketball and football.

除了开门见山以外,论述的内容必须与提示保持一致,否则文章的语言再好,也只能算是失败之作。一般来说,这类文章的每个自然段都由三部分组成,即主题句,论述句和结论句。主题句由提示给出,论述句提供观点来论证主题句,结论句则是总结、归纳、概括主提句的观点。

总之,要写出一篇好的英语作文不是一朝一夕就能做到的。除了借助以上方法之外,还需从平时入手,勤写多练,以提高自己的写作水平和语言表达能力。

篇13:假期旅行大学英语

全文共 1172 字

+ 加入清单

So called self-help traveling refers that travelers themselves arrange travel route, travel time, and all the other matters during travel, without any guide and team leader. Nowadays this kind of traveling model is gaining more and more popularity among college students. According to the survey, over 80% of college students prefer self-help traveling to following a tour group。

Why are college students so fond of self-help traveling? Above all, self-help traveling gives travelers more freedom and space. College students don’t like being restricted. They want to arrange their travel as they wish. Moreover, self-help traveling provides college students a good chance to improve their adaptability and viability. Besides, the expenses in self-help traveling are controlled by travelers themselves. It is a good choice for those college students who have not much money for their disposal。

As a college student, I enjoy self-help traveling very much, and I have benefited a lot from it. For one thing, I have appreciated many amazing scenery that those travelers who follow tour groups can not. For another, self-help travel helps me learn how to deal with people better。

篇14:2024年高考英语作文写作技巧

全文共 4366 字

+ 加入清单

下面是关于高考英文写作技巧以及必备高分句型,希望对同学们有所帮助!

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。

临考在即,同学们要牢记英语写作的基本要领,特编顺口溜如下:细审题,巧构思,列要点,防遗漏。写日记,同汉语;书信,通知格式要牢记。看清图表细梳理,写人记事按顺序;完稿后查遗漏,整洁干净莫忘记。

篇15:小升初英语作文写作基础

全文共 1289 字

+ 加入清单

导语:英语写作是一种创作性的学习过程。下面是小编收集的小升初英语作文写作技巧,欢迎大家阅读!

英语写作是一种创作性的学习过程。启动知识信息储存,构思立意,谋篇布局,遣词造句,对语言表达的正确性和准确性、思维的逻辑性和文章的条理性都比口语要求更高。通常英语写作有以下几个特点:紧扣教学大纲对考生书面表达的要求;以有指导的写作为主(guidedwriting),便于考生在短时间内构思成文;突出试题的交际性,考查考生在特定的情景中运用语言的能力;增强试题的实用性,所选话题贴近学生学习生活,为学生所熟悉;看图作文主要考查考生运用所学知识解决实际问题的能力。

英语写作注意两点

一、先审题,弄清写作要求审题是写好作文的前提,也是书面表达的基础。如果写偏了题,语言表达再好也很难得高分。审题时要注意两个方面:

1.认真地看两遍题目,包括提示,全面了解写作要求。

2.理清思路,确定体裁、框架结构和内容。

二、用英语进行思维英语写作时必须排除汉语思维的干扰。

从现在起应逐渐加大阅读量和听的输入量,将阅读、听力训练与书面表达有机地结合起来。经常体会和领悟作者传递信息和表达思想的方式。在话题讨论和写作中经常运用所学到的表达方式就会有所创造。还要尽量做到“五多”:多看、多听、多思考、多用心体验和感悟身边的人和事、多用英语说和写自己的体验和感受。

最后一个月如何训练英语写作

1.重视增加阅读量是提高英语写作的途径之一。

目前,考生在进行大量阅读的同时,应注重所读材料的文章结构以及连接词的运用(ontheotherhand,however,furthermore)、作者的表达方式(词汇、习惯用语和典型句子的使用)、作者是如何进行叙述和议论的。

2.在教师的指导下,平时应勤写多练。

练习写作应从基本功抓起。在中译英翻译训练过程中,加强积累适量的词汇、词组和增加各种类型句子的运用。把握好各种句型和词汇的搭配,并从各类题材和体裁着手,多阅读好的范文。然后模仿写作,作文写好之后,一般都要修改。第一遍收笔后,先看一看结构,然后从字词上推敲,使文章“充实”起来。更重要的是经老师修改过的作文一定要仔细地看一至两遍,然后再认真地抄写一遍,收获将会很大。

英文写作“四步走”

由于时间限制,考试时必须在所限定的时间内完成英语作文。英语作文步骤如下:

1)作文动笔之前一般都要先打腹稿。在确立中心上、运用材料上、篇章结构上,充分酝酿。

2)考虑好想写多少句子,该用哪些动词和词组等。

3)边写边思考内容的连贯性,语言和句子的准确性。

4)写完后一定要再细看一遍。

主要体裁作文写作技巧

(一)写提示议论文应考虑的几点:

1.文章开头,能依据提示确立主题句(topic)阐明观点或看法。

2.会使用连接词分层次说明理由、缘由(supportingsentences)。

3.归纳总结,首尾呼应。

(二)看图作文应考虑的几点:

1.看懂图片,把图片展示的人物、地点、时间、事件等有机地串联起来,使之成为内容连贯的句子。

2.确定短文须用的时态和该用的人称。

3.确定体裁(说明文还是记叙文),接着用简洁的语句描述图片或图表大意。

4.根据图片或图表大意议论。

篇17:关于英语说明文的写作方法

全文共 8391 字

+ 加入清单

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。

this is not only the city where I was born, but also the only place Ive never been able to leave. 5 years ago, I moved from here to another city to begin my college life. The day I left ## I felt as a fish out of water.

this is the only place where Ive walked past a schoolyard and pictured a future son or daughter of mine playing balls.

I love this city. She’s small and quiet. Every day I live here, I could have the safety feeling which I got when my mother held me in her arms.

I love this city. She is very beautiful and lovely. Everywhere you can see the flowers, grass and trees. The shops are full of all kinds of goods. When you walk in the street, you can feel the gentle wind touching your face and breathe the fresh air.

I love this city. The climate here is very warm which is very suitable for people to do some outdoors activities.

I love this city. She is where I have lived for ____ years with my parents, my good friends, and my teachers who have supported me. She has almost all my memories.

I love the night of ##. People sit in the gardens of their houses or in the small restaurants, chatting, drinking and enjoying the delicious seafood which is abundant in our city.

I love the sunrise of ##. When I was still a little girl, my parents and I used to climb up the hill in the morning to see the sunrise. When the beautiful sun went up, the gentle breeze brought us the fragrance of the flowers, the golden sunshine made our hair shimmer, and my heart would be filled with hope and happiness!

Maybe someday I will have to leave this city, but no matter where I would go I will never forget this city, its people, its trees and its sunrise. Yes, everything that it gave me could be given by other places, but my love won’t be changed, because it is my home town.

不但是我出生的城市,也是我无法离开的唯一地方,我的家乡。5年以前,我离开这里到另外一个城市开始我的大学生活。离开##的那天,我感觉自己像是一条离开了水的鱼儿。

当我走过一座校园,想象我未来的儿子或女儿能在这里玩耍。##,就是唯一一个让我有这种想法的地方。

My life in the University of Education

How time flies! It has been about two years since I came to the University of Education. Every coin has two sides. On the one hand, I am quite satisfied with my university life. On the other hand, life in my university is not as satisfactory as what we had expected.

University is not only a place where you can learn something useful from textbooks, but also a place where you can improve your ability to communicate with others.

During the year university study, I can not only acquire a lot of book learning, but also foster various abilities. All types of extracurricular activities such as sports meets, speech contests, different social gatherings and traveling provide opportunities to make friends, many of these friendships may last a long time. I like talking and playing with others, so I own many friends. Sometimes I feel lonely, angry and also homesick. But fortunately I own these good friends. They helped me spend these sad days. I find words cannot express my sincere thanks to them. But I know when they need help; I will do everything that I can do to help those who helped me before.

I like going to the library where you can find these words on the wall: "Knowledge is power." and "Keep silence!" after class every day. Because I know that we must learn every day. I think the life in university of Education is full of freedom, but I never waste time. Life is not easy

for everybody, especially for those who hopes to lead a happy life”, a famous lady once said. That is to say, you have to try your best to learn and to pass exams in order to make your life become better and better with time going on. So I never give up learning even go to the college.

Sometimes I also want to own more free time to do my own things. But we have too many classes. So I think life in my university is not as satisfactory as what we had expected. The teaching method is boring; instead of lecturing, some teachers just "read" lessons. I hate it. I want to more free time in class.

During the time I spend at the University of Education, I not only develops my intellectual abilities, I also develop social skills as well as knowledge and wisdom necessary for choosing a future career.

In short, we should value our life in the University of Education. Although there are many things lacking, the four years in the university is a worthwhile period in our whole lifetime.

篇20:中考英语作文写作要素

全文共 1382 字

+ 加入清单

一、审题要清

看到考题后,先不要急于动笔,要仔细看清题目要求的内容。在自己的头脑中构思出一个框架或画面,确定短文的中心思想,不要匆匆下笔,看懂题意,根据提供的资料和信息来审题。审题要审格式、体裁、人物关系、故事情节、主体时态、活动时间、地点等。

二、要点明确

要点是给分的一个重要因素。为了防止写作过程中遗漏要点,同学们要充分发挥自己的观察力,把情景中给出的各个要点逐一罗列出。

三、列出提纲

为写作做好准备。根据文章要点短文的中心思想将主要句型、关键词语记下,形成提纲。

四、写顺全文

写短文时要做到五个方面:

1.避免使用汉语式英语,尽量使用自己熟悉的句型。

2.多用简单句型,记事、写人一般都不需要复杂的句型。可适当多使用陈述句、一般疑问句、祈使句和感叹句。不用或少用非谓语或独立主格结构等较复杂的句型。

3.注意语法、句法知识的灵活运用。语态、时态要准确无误;主谓语要一致,主语的人称和数要和谓语一致;注意冠词用法,例如:It takes Tom half an hour to go to school by bus.中的an不能写成a;注意拼写,例如:fourteen,forty,ninth等不要写成forteen,fourty,nineth等;注意标点符号和大小写。

4.描写人物时,要生动具体,可以选择使用下列词汇,例如:外形:tall,short,fat,thin,strong,weak,pretty等;颜色:red,yel-low,blue,white,green,brown,black等;心情:glad,happy,sad,excited,anxious,interest-ed等;情感:love,like,hate,feel,laugh,cry,smile,shout等。

5.上下文要连贯。同学们应把写好的句子,根据故事情节,事情发生的先后次序(时间或空间),使用一些表示并列、递进等过渡词进行加工整理,使文章连贯、自然、流畅。同学们应注意下面过渡的用法:并列关系:and,as well as,or…;转折关系:but,yet,how-ever…;时间关系:when,while,after,before,then,after that…;因果关系:so,there-fore,asaresult…;目的:in order to,in order that,so as to,so that…;列举:for example ,such as…;总结性:in general,in all,in a word,generally speaking…

五、没有病句

中考作文时,由于时间紧、内容多,同学们出错在所难免。因此,改错这一环节必不可少。中考作文评卷是根据要点、语言准确性、上下文的连贯性来给分,根据错误多少来扣分。因此中考时花几分钟时间用来检查错误显得尤为重要。检查错误应从以下几个方面入手:(1)看字数是否达到要求,看有无遗漏要点。

(2)看文体格式是否正确规范。

(3)看有无语法或用词上的错误。

(4)看单词拼写、字母大小写是否有错,标点符号有无遗漏或用错等等。

(5)注意时态、语态、人称是否上下文一致。

六、先打草稿

考试中,书面表达应做到先打草稿,写完后多读几遍,检查是否有误,然后再抄到试卷上,注意字迹要工整,不涂、不画、不勾不抹,避免不必要的扣分。
