2024年中考英语写作之看图作文

全文共 2621 字

+ 加入清单

现在是各大学校放寒假的时间,年后要参加中考的同学们要注意了,趁着假期要好好恶补一下英语哦,下面是小编收集整理的中考英语作文写作指导,希望对您有所帮助。

最近几年的中考英语当中,很多省市已经摆脱了单一作文模式,采用一大一小两个作文相结合的模式。例如,去年辽宁沈阳中考英语作文就是一个小作文,应用文-写假条,加上一个大作文,汉语提示作文构成。今年,北京中考英语作文也将是两个,一个看图作文在加上一个提示作文构成。这一讲,我们先来学习一下看图作文的写法。

看图作文要求考生按照所给图画,通过合理的联想将一组画面的内容正确地表达出来。看图作文与其他类型作文的不同之处在于,它除了要求考生有英语语言表达能力,还要求考生有观察能力、分析能力和想象能力。

写好看图作文应注意的事项1、结合文字提示,正确理解图意。一般情况下,看图作文在提供图画的同时也附带有简要的文字提示,我们可以利用文字提示去正确地理解图意,得到要点。切忌孤立地看图而忽视文字提示。

写作从图画的细节出发。所谓细节,就是指图画中的人物、事件、地点、环境、时间、动作等。依据图画细节,就可以把图画的内容用英语具体而生动地表达出来了。

例题分析(例题)

同学们,看到下面的四幅图片及相应的报道后,你感到最担忧的是哪两种情形?请简述你担忧的理由并提出建议或希望。

要求:

⒈ 从所给素材中任选两种情形进行阐述,不可多选或少选。

⒉ 条理清楚,意思连贯,语句通顺,标点正确;

⒊ 词数 80 ~ 100。

参考词汇: 建议 suggest v. suggestion n.

气体 gas n. 污染 pollution n.

THE POLLUTIONS

① One third of the worlds people dont have enough clean water.

② More and more diseases are caused by polluted air.

③ People are disturbed quite often by kinds of noises.

④ Every person in our city makes about 1.8 kilos of rubbish every day.

这道看图作文题,主题和图片连接得不是很紧密。从考查的形式上来说,虽是看图,实质上却属于提示性的作文。这个作文应该结合个人的观点,选择的余地还是很大的。做这个题应该注意几个方面:

1、认真读题。注意,题目虽然给了四幅图,但是却只要求写其中的两个就行。

2、题意要求的是阐述个人的观点-最担忧的两种情形。而不是对图片进行描述。

3、结合所给的提示。提示中,对每种污染都进行了阐述,考生可以这些描述进行写作。

4、注意字数,语法,拼写等,避免错误。

下面是两个例文,大家可以参考一下。

One possible version:

The environment is becoming worse and worse. There are many kinds of pollution I worry about. The most serious two are water pollution and air pollution, because people cant live healthily with dirty water and polluted air, nor can animals. More and more diseases are caused by polluted air.

I think factories should not pour dirty water into the river directly or produce more waste gas. Wed better go on foot or by like instead of by car, because more cars mean more waste gas. We should make our world more and more beautiful.

Another possible version:

The first fact I worry about is noise pollution. People cant sleep well if there is too much noise. Thats why so many people prefer to live in the countryside rather than live in the noisy city. I suggest all the factories and cars shouldnt make terrible noises. If they make terrible noise that isnt allowed, they will be fined, and we can also produce the cars which cant make terrible noise.

The other pollution is rubbish pollution. If everyone makes so much rubbish, one day we may live in a world filled with rubbish. Some people throw the waste paper about. I suggest rubbish should be put into different kinds of dustbins or paper bags.

下面,我们来看看这道题的评分标准。一般来说,各地的评分标准都和下面的这个标准差不多。这个最高的标准,实际上也就是我们写作的目标。

评分标准:

1. 内容完整,语句流畅,无语法错误,书写规范,给9-10分;

2. 内容较完整,语句较流畅,基本无语法错误,书写较规范,给6-8分;

3. 内容不完整,语句欠流畅,语法错误较多,书写较规范,给3-5分;

4. 只写出个别要点,语法错误较多,书写欠规范,只有个别句子可读或不知所云,给0-2分。

看图作文不可小视。希望大家掌握答好这种题型的要点,并积累词汇。

篇1:英语考研作文命题依据及写作技巧

全文共 1564 字

+ 加入清单

导语:小编提醒大家,要想把作文写好,要想在考研写作中得高分,平时一定得多阅读优秀的范文,特别是一些漂亮精彩的句型。同时也有必要掌握一些写作模式和技巧,不断地模仿练习,最后才能真正打造出高分作文。

一、命题依据

考研话题牵涉面广,包罗万象,变幻莫测。但从历年考研真题研究中可以发现写作基本上可粗略地划分为两大类话题:永恒话题(everlastingtopic)和热点话题(hotissue)。所谓永恒话题,是指那些不以时间和空间的转移为转移的话题。这类话题一般都是一些宏观的大话题,没有明显的时代印痕。如有关社会道德范畴的话题。另一大类是热点话题,即近几年或某一年特殊的社会现象, 媒体普遍报道过或公众普遍谈论的话题。如AdvertisementonTV(93),温室的花朵经不起风雨(2003)等,所以,平时在生活和学习中留意类似话题的英文素材预以备战不妨是个好的办法。

二、写作技巧

1.精心构造全文的引言段

考研作文阅卷老师每天工作量很大,工作时间也较长,因此长时间批改水平参差不齐、质量高下不一的作文难免感到疲劳,厌倦,甚至气恼。据测试统计,一口气读完12 篇后才走神的人极少,定力惊人。因此,在考研写作三段制中,第一段最能吸引他们的目光和注意力,因为考研作文采用的是总体评分法(GlobalScoring),作文评卷老师往往主要凭借第一段的总体印象打分。有人把文章的第一段说成是黄金段落,说老师就是在这一段中不断地“淘金”。这一说法是很有道理的,因此,作文要想得高分,一定要精心构造全文的第一段,最大限度地满足阅卷老师的期待心理,力争给他留下良好的第一印象。经验告诉我们,阅卷老师在看完文章的第一段后就已基本上给文章定了分数档次,即使在第二,第三段中发现文章中的其他一些美中不足之处,他也只是微调几分,总体分数还是比先定的档次低的文章要好得多。总之,引言段在全文三段中的重要性再怎么强调也不过分。如果要按重要性依次递减的顺序来排的话,那么应是引言在先,其次是结尾段,再次是拓展段。

2.制造语言的闪光点

“言之无文,行而不远”,同理语言干瘪平淡,让人看之面目可憎,读后味如嚼蜡。要想攫住阅卷老师匆匆的一瞥,留住他们的兴奋点,就非得在语言上猛下功夫,多制造些表达上的闪光点。语言是思维的外壳,语言的好坏直接影响到实际作文分数的高低。语言表达的亮点体现在小到一个词,短语大到一个句子中。高分作文往往是“锱铢必较”,几乎字字计较。很多人作文分数很低往往是因为用词面太窄。当然,词汇的积累是有个过程的。可惜的是,很多同学只能认词,却不能再现,更不用说写作时运用了。

3.避免中国式英语

母语为非英语的人学习英语时往往会将母语的思维和表达方式直接迁移到英语表达当中。中国人学英语时往往会受母语根深蒂固的影响,最易造出中国腔的英语。有人把“价格便宜”直接写成“The price is cheap”,把“这件事小菜一碟”说成“This is a small dish”,让人看后苦笑不得。因此要尽量摆脱中国试英语,方法看来只有一条:多看外国人写的文章,多多阅读。不难想象,阅卷老师如果在短短的二百字文章中到处看到Chinglish,他无法使自己对你文章的印象好起来。

4.尽量有路标词

路标词(signalword)又称衔接词(connectives)就像灯塔为在茫茫大海中航行的船只指引方向一样,它能突出文章的层次性和逻辑性。英语文章讲究启承转合。“启”就是开启观点:“承”就是接着话茬进一步发展论证或补充:“转”就是讲相反或对立的观点:“合”就是总结概括。一篇文章若没有路标词便会杂乱无章的乱堆在一起,给人凌乱没有条理的感觉。标志词或衔接词的作用绝对不可小觑。

此外,多种句型的交替使用,文章脉络层次的分明,论据的合理充分等在写作中都应引起足够的重视。

篇2:2024年中职应用文写作基础

全文共 3260 字

+ 加入清单

写作训练是掌握技能的必经途径,所以,要掌握应用文的写作,学生必须多练。因此,作为《应用写作》课的科任老师必须要掌握一套激发学生愿意甚至喜欢进行应用文写作的教学技巧。

一、兴趣与写作的联系

(一)兴趣的概念

兴趣是人积极探究某种事物的认识倾向。这种认识倾向使人对某种事物有稳定的指向、倾向,并具有向往的心情。如对书法感兴趣的人,不论是现场观摩即席挥毫还是观看电视上的书法讲座,都会全神贯注;在日常的谈论中,对书法也会津津乐道;对报刊杂志上有关书法展览和比赛,也总是予以极大的关注。

由此可见,要使学生喜欢应用文的写作,我们作为老师的,就是要想方设法使他们对应用文的写作产生兴趣。

(二)兴趣与需要的关系

兴趣和需要有着密切的联系。兴趣的发生以一定的需要为基础。当一个人有某种需要时,他必然会对有关事物予以关注,也就是对有关事物发生兴趣,不仅反映已有的需要,又可产生新的需要,不断探究,并在需要的基础上激发动力,去做好或完成感兴趣的事情。

需要对于兴趣的产生是直接的,而应用文是一种在日常生活中非常实用的文章,在学习、生活、工作中经常用到,所以,只要我们做老师的,做个生活的有心人,就不愁找不到写应用文的需要。学生一旦对应用文有了需要,也就对应用文的写作产生了兴趣,那学生怕写应用文的难题就迎刃而解了。

二、激发学生进行写作兴趣的种类

激发学生对应用文的写作兴趣,按照对象的不同,可以分为以下几种:

(一)学校实际的需要

《应用写作》是一门应用性行极强的学科,即使在学校读书期间也可能经常用到。在一个学期里每个阶段都可能会用到一些应用文。一般来说,开学初估计要用到的应用文有计划、规章制度、通知等;学期中可能遇到的有:申请书、演讲稿、广播稿、新闻、调查报告等;期末可能用到的有求职信、总结等。读书期间运用的知识,对于学生来说是最感兴趣和最容易掌握的,所以,作为《应用写作》的科任老师,应该要因地制宜,因势利导,利用学生要写好这类文章,争取得到好的结果这个心理需求,学习和掌握所学的应用文。

(二)社会现实的需要

社会上每天都会发生很多新事情新情况,这些新事情新情况有些是意义重大,如汶川大地震、中国2008年的奥运会、神舟飞船上天、爱国人士保钓行动等大事可以写成新闻;有些社会上的事情与学生有直接的关系,如有关禁止中小学生进入某些娱乐场所的通告、青少年犯罪的通报等,都可以通过引导,激发学生的写作兴趣和热情。

(三)学生家庭的需要

一个家庭就是一个社会的缩影,一个家庭不管是贫穷的还是富裕的,都会经历很多事情,这些事情都很有必要用到一些应用文,从而获得较大的利益和保障。如果一些比较富裕的做生意的家庭,可能要写的应用文将会有:广告、合同、法律文书、请柬等;比较困难的家庭也可能要用申请书、感谢信等。不管哪一种情况,老师都可以引导学生进行写作,帮助学生,为家庭提高经济效益,创造幸福和谐的生活,。

(四)学生自身的需要

学生在读书过程中,也会很多时候要用到应用文,如入学时学生干部竞选,可以学习演讲稿的写作,提高竞争能力,为班级、为自己写计划,做好一个学期的打算;一个学期里可能有的活动如演讲比赛、田径运动会、晚会,这些活动就可以写演讲稿、新闻稿、解说词;期末如果是毕业班的学生,就要引导写求职信,以期通过有创意、水平高的求职信,谋得一份好工作。

(五)创设情境的需要

应用文虽然也被称之为实用文体,但并不是所有的应用文在学生的读书时期都可以用得上。实际上,《应用写作》这本教材里,有很多文体学生在读书期间是用不上的,如公文的大多数文种、经济应用文、涉外应用文等,对于这些文体,科任老师只能创设一定的环境和情景,让学生有一种身临其境的感觉,从而使之不写不快,这样同样能达到训练写作,巩固和提高应用文写作水平的目的。

三、激发写作兴趣的运用

学生对写作训练有了兴趣,这只是写作训练的第一步,也是非常重要的的一步。但要学生真正达到提高学生应用文写作水平的效果,还要做好一系列的工作。

(一)在教学过程中一定要把握好时机,

人们常说,机会是属于有准备的人。学校、社会、家庭、学生个人并不是任何时候都有应用文等着去写的,所以,我们做老师的就要做个有心人,把握好每一种文体练习的机会。

1.对于写学校需要的应用文,科任老师接到上课任务后,就要了解在一个学期中,学校、班级要开展什么活动,需要那些文体,做到心中有数。

2.对于写社会需要的应用文,科任老师要像抓小偷的警察一样时刻竖起耳朵,及时捕捉社会上出现的新事物新情况,然后把材料发给学生或者引导学生何如获取材料,最后要求按要求进行写作。

3.对于写家庭需要的应用文,科任老师应该在开学的第一节课后,就布置学生,关注自己的家庭需要,如有需要写的及时提出来,让大家一起写,把写得最好的应用文交给他的家里。这样,学生得到了锻炼,需要应用文的学生家庭又得到了一篇质量较高的应用文,真正起到了一箭双雕的作用。

4.对于写学生需要的应用文,方法与第一点差不多,只不过写作的目的而已。第一点的写作目的是为集体,这一点所说的写作目的是为个人。

5.对于创设情境而写的应用文来说,就不需要把握什么时机了。这种教学方法,不受现实的限制,更能发挥老师的能动性,只要老师充分发挥想象力,从趣味性以及从学生的切身利益相关的角度出发,创设出生动有趣的情景就可以说已经成功了。

(二)要根据需要调整上课的内容

应该说,绝大部分的应用文的文体都不会与上述五点需要同步,科任老师应该把需要用的文体调前或者推后来学习,然后按照学校、社会、家庭、学生的需要指导写作,由于所写的文体与学生的需要关系密切,学生一定会仔细听,认真写,从而达到学好应用文的目的。

(三)要做好指导工作

对应用文的教学,并不只是引导学生对写作感兴趣就行了,在教学中,首先要上好应用文的文体知识,然后指导学生认真审题,特别是指导好学生运用所写的文体知识,选取有用的材料进行写作。这个方面很重要,指导得好,学生就会觉得应用文并不难写,就会有兴趣写下去,指导得不好的话,结果也会相反,从而大大地影响应用文的教学效果。

(四)注意反馈信息,不断总结提高写作水平

学生把需要写好的应用文用到需要的地方之后,科任老师要时刻注意学生所写的应用文的效应和反响。例如是学生为自己写演讲稿的,就要了解学生的演讲是否成功、是否获奖。是学生为自己写求职信的,就要了解他们的求职是否成功,是为班级写规章制度的,要向班主任了解有没有采纳;是为家庭而写的法律文书,就要了解有没有帮助打赢官司;写的广告是否提高了经济效益;为社会而写的动态新闻稿件是否得到广播或发表等等。对于取得好结果的,要及时给予总结,找出成功的地方,便于今后继续发扬,取得更大的成功;对于失败的应用文,也要找出失败的原因,避免重蹈覆辙。

四、注意事项

运用上述方法进行应用文的写作教学时,还要做好以下几点:

(一) 兴趣与强制结合

兴趣这个东西,并不是人人都可以激发,种种文体都可以引起学生的兴趣,对一些启而不能发的学生或者难以激发写作兴趣的文体,做老师的必须实行强制的措施,强调写作的要求和交文时间。这样,才能达到全班步调一致的整体效果。

(二)方法交叉运用

以上五种激发学生进行写作的方法只是为了说明清楚而分开说明,并不是每一种文体只能用一种方法,有时候,同一文体可以用两种甚至几种激趣法。例如,写经济合同,既可以是为自己写的,也可以是为家庭和社会某些企业而写。通过多种方法进行引导,学生的写作兴趣就会更大,写作就会更积极,写作水平也就提高得更快。

(三)注重训练实效

按照唯物主义的观点,世界上没有一成不变的事物,也没有绝对最好的方法,激发学生对应用文写作兴趣的方法不是唯一,相信除了本文所列的方法意外,还有很多好方法,只要在实际训练效果明显的,就应该采用哪一种(包括本文没有列举的)。

一位著名的教育家说过这样一句话,没有教不好的学生,只有不会教的老师。的确,只要我们做老师的从多个方面、多种渠道去想,是有很多方法和技巧可以激发中职学生的对应用文的写作兴趣,从而提高他们应用文的写作水平。

篇3:优秀英语作文写作指导:六级写作高分七大技巧

全文共 4291 字

+ 加入清单

不管做什么是,找对技巧很重要。下面语文迷网整理了英语六级的写作技巧,供大家阅读参考。

一、 长短句原则。

工作还得一张一弛呢,老让读者读长句,累死人!写一个短小精辟的句子,相反,却可以起到画龙点睛的作用。而且如果我们把短句放在段首或者段末,也可以揭示主题:As a creature, I eat; as a man, I read. Although one action is to meet the primary need of my body and the other is to satisfy the intellectual need of mind, they are in a way quite similar. 如此可见,长短句结合,抑扬顿挫,岂不爽哉?牢记!

强烈建议:在文章第一段(开头)用一长一短,且先长后短;在文章主体部分,要先用一个短句解释主要意思,然后在阐述几个要点的时候采用先短后长的句群形式,定会让主体部分妙笔生辉!文章结尾一般用一长一短就可以了。

二、 主题句原则。

国有其君,家有其主,文章也要有其主。否则会给人造成“群龙无首”之感!相信各位读过一些破烂文学,故意把主体隐藏在文章之内,结果造成我们稀里糊涂!不知所云!所以奉劝各位一定要写一个主题句,放在文章的开头(保险型)或者结尾,让读者一目了然,必会平安无事!

特别提示:隐藏主体句可是要冒险的!To begin with, you must work hard at your lessons and be fully prepared before the exam(主题句). Without sufficient preparation, you can hardly expect to answer all the questions correctly.

三、 一 二 三原则。

领导讲话总是第一部分、第一点、第二点、第三点、第二部分、第一点… 如此罗嗦。可毕竟还是条理清楚。考官们看文章也必然要通过这些关键性的“标签”来判定你的文章是否结构清楚,条理自然。破解方法很简单,只要把下面任何一组的词汇加入到你的几个要点前就清楚了。

1)first, second, third, last(不推荐,原因:俗)

2)firstly, secondly, thirdly, finally(不推荐,原因:俗)

3)the first, the second, the third, the last(不推荐,原因:俗)

4)in the first place, in the second place, in the third place, lastly(不推荐,原因:俗)

5)to begin with, then, furthermore, finally(强烈推荐)

6)to start with, next, in addition, finally(强烈推荐)

7)first and foremost, besides, last but not least(强烈推荐)

8)most important of all, moreover, finally

9)on the one hand, on the other hand(适用于两点的情况)

10)for one thing, for another thing(适用于两点的情况)

建议:不仅仅在写作中注意,平时说话的时候也应该条理清楚!

四、短语优先原则。

写作时,尤其是在考试时,如果使用短语,有两个好处:其一、用短语会使文章增加亮点,如果老师们看到你的文章太简单,看不到一个自己不认识的短语,必然会看你低一等。相反,如果发现亮点—精彩的短语,那么你的文章定会得高分了。

其二、关键时刻思维短路,只有凑字数,怎么办?用短语是一个办法!比如:I cannot bear it. 可以用短语表达:I cannot put up with it. I want it. 可以用短语表达:I am looking forward to it. 这样字数明显增加,表达也更准确。

五、多实少虚原则

原因很简单,写文章还是应该写一些实际的东西,不要空话连篇。这就要求一定要多用实词,少用虚词。我这里所说的虚词就是指那些比较大的词。

比如我们说一个很好的时候,不应该之说nice这样空洞的词,应该使用一些诸如generous, humorous, interesting, smart, gentle, warm-hearted, hospitable 之类的形象词。

再比如: 走出房间,general的词是:walk out of the room 但是小偷走出房间应该说:slip out of the room 小姐走出房间应该说:sail out of the room 小孩走出房间应该说:dance out of the room 老人走出房间应该说:stagger out of the room 所以多用实词,少用虚词,文章将会大放异彩!

六、 多变句式原则。

1)加法(串联)都希望写下很长的句子,像个老外似的,可就是怕写错,怎么办,最保险的写长句的方法就是这些,可以在任何句子之间加and, 但最好是前后的句子又先后关系或者并列关系。比如说:I enjoy music and he is fond of playing guitar. 如果是二者并列的,我们可以用一个超级句式:Not only the fur coat is soft, but it is also warm. 其它的短语可以用:besides, furthermore, likewise, moreover

2)转折(拐弯抹角)批评某人缺点的时候,我们总习惯先拐弯抹角说说他的优点,然后转入正题,再说缺点,这种方式虽然阴险了点,可毕竟还比较容易让人接受。所以呢,我们说话的时候,只要在要点之前先来点废话,注意二者之间用个专这次就够了。The car was quite old, yet it was in excellent condition. The coat was thin, but it was warm. 更多的短语:despite that, still, however, nevertheless, in spite of, despite, notwithstanding

3)因果(so, so, so)昨天在街上我看到了一个女孩,然后我主动搭讪,然后我们去咖啡厅,然后我们认识了,然后我们成为了朋友…可见,讲故事的时候我们总要追求先后顺序,先什么,后什么,所以然后这个词就变得很常见了。其实这个词表示的是先后或因果关系!The snow began to fall, so we went home. 更多短语:then, therefore, consequently, accordingly, hence, as a result, for this reason, so that

4)失衡句(头重脚轻,或者头轻脚重)有些人脑袋大,身体小,或者有些人脑袋小,身体大,虽然我们不希望长成这个样子,可如果真的是这样了,也就必然会吸引别人的注意力。文章中如果出现这样的句子,就更会让考官看到你的句子与众不同。其实就是主语从句,表语从句,宾语从句的变形。举例:This is what I can do. Whether he can go with us or not is not sure. 同样主语、宾语、表语可以改成如下的复杂成分:When to go, Why he goes away…

5)附加(多此一举)如果有了老婆,总会遇到这样的情况,当你再讲某个人的时候,她会插一句说,我昨天见过他;或者说,就是某某某,如果把老婆的话插入到我们的话里面,那就是定语从句和同位语从句或者是插入语。The man whom you met yesterday is a friend of mine. I don’t enjoy that book you are reading. Mr liu, our oral English teacher, is easy-going. 其实很简单,同位语--要解释的东西删除后不影响整个句子的构成;定语从句—借用之前的关键词并且用其重新组成一个句子插入其中,但是whom or that 关键词必须要紧跟在先行词之前。

6)排比(排山倒海句)文学作品中最吸引人的地方莫过于此,如果非要让你的文章更加精彩的话,那么我希望你引用一个个的排比句,一个个得对偶句,一个个的不定式,一个个地词,一个个的短语,如此表达将会使文章有排山倒海之势!Whether your tastes are modern or traditional, sophisticated or simple, there is plenty in London for you. Nowadays, energy can be obtained through various sources such as oil, coal, natural gas, solar heat, the wind and ocean tides. We have got to study hard, to enlarge our scope of knowledge, to realize our potentials and to pay for our life. (气势恢宏) 要想写出如此气势恢宏的句子非用排比不可!

七、挑战极限原则。

既然十挑战极限,必然是比较难的,但是并非不可攀!原理:在学生的文章中,很少发现诸如独立主格的句子,其实也很简单,只要花上5分钟的时间看看就可以领会,它就是分词的一种特殊形式,分词要求主语一致,而独立主格则不然。比如:The weather being fine, a large number of people went to climb the Western Hills. Africa is the second largest continent, its size being about three times that of China. 如果你可以写出这样的句子,不得高分才怪!

篇5:关于写好读后感的写作基础

全文共 1419 字

+ 加入清单

导语:读后感是指读了一本书,一篇文章,一段话,几句名言,一段音乐,或一段视频后,把具体感受和得到的启示写成的文章,读后感也可以叫做读书笔记,是一种常用的应用文体,也是应用写作研究的文体之一。简单说就是看完书后的感触。那么怎样才能写好读后感呢?小编跟大家分享关于如何写到读后感的写作基础!

从结构上看,一篇读后感至少要有三个部分的内容组成:一是要介绍原作的篇名内容和特点;二是根据自己的认识对原作的内容和特点进行分析和评价,也就是概括地谈谈对作品的总体印象;三是读后的感想和体会。即一是说明的部分,二是要有根据评价作品的部分,三是有感而发,重点在“感”字上。

首要的一点是“读”。“读”是感的基础,“感”是由“读”而生。只有认真的读书,弄懂难点疑点,理清文章的思路,透彻的掌握文章的内容和要点,深刻地领会原文精神所在,结合历史的经验、当前的形势和个人的实际,才能真有所“感”。所以,要写读后感,首先要弄懂原作。

其次要认真思考。读后感的主体是“感”。要写实感,还要在读懂原作的基础上作出自己的分析和评价。分析和评价是有所“感”的酝酿、集中和演化的过程,有了这个 分析和评价,才有可能使“感”紧扣原作的主要思想和主要观点,避免脱离原作,东拉西扯,离开中心太远。

所以,写读后感就必须要边读边思考,结合历史的经验,当前的形势和自己的实际展开联想,从书中的人和事联系到自己和自己所见的人和事,那些与书中相近、相似,那些与书中相反、相对,自己赞成书中的什么,反对些什么,从而把自己的感想激发出来,并把它条理化,系统化,理论化。总之,想的深入,才能写的深刻感人。

然后,要抓住重点。读完一篇(部)作品,会有很多感想和体会,但不能把他们都写出来。读后感是写感受最深的一点,不是书评,不能全面地介绍和评价作品。因此,要认真地选择对现实生活有一定意义的、有针对性的感想,就可以避免泛泛而谈,文章散乱,漫无中心和不与事例挂钩等弊病 。

怎样才能抓住重点呢?

我们读完一部作品或一篇文章后,自然会受到感动,产生许多感想,但这许多感想是零碎的,有些是模糊的,一闪而失。要写读后感,就要善于抓住这些零碎、甚至是模糊的感想,反复想,反复作比较,找出两个比较突出的对现实有针对性的,再集中凝神的想下去,在深思的基础上加以整理。也只有这样,才能抓住具有现实意义的问题,写出真实、深刻、用于解决人们在学习上、思想上和实践上存在问题的有价值的感想来。

最后,要真实自然。就是要写自己的真情实感。自己是怎样受到感动和怎样想的,就怎样写。把自己的想法写的越具体、越真实,文章就会情真意切,生动活泼,使人受到启发。

从表现手法上看,读后感多用夹叙夹议,必要时借助抒情的方法。叙述是联系实际摆事实。议论是谈感想,讲道理。抒情是表达读后的激情。叙述的语言要概括简洁,议论要准确,抒情要集中。三者要交融一体,切忌空话、大话套话、口号。

从表现形式上看,也有两种:一种是联系实际说明道理的。这是用自己的切身体会和具体生动的事例,从理论和实践的结合上阐明一个道理的正确性,把理论具体化、形象化,使之有血有肉,有事有理,以事明理,生动活泼。另一种是从研究理论的角度出发,阐发意义。根据自己的研究和理解,阐明一个较难理解的思想观点,或估价一部作品的思想意义。它的作用是从理论上帮助读者加深对原文的理解。这一种读后感的重点仍在“感”字上,但它的理论性较强,一定要注意关照议论文论点鲜明、论据典型、中心明确突出等特点。

篇6:电影剧本的写作基础知识

全文共 4454 字

+ 加入清单

电影剧本是部故事片的指南或概要吗?是蓝图吗?是图表吗? 小编收集了电影剧本的写作基础,欢迎阅读。

第一章电影剧本是什么?

在本章我们将介绍戏剧式结构的示例

电影剧本是什么?

是一部故事片的指南或概要吗?是蓝图吗?是图表吗?

是一系列通过对话和描写来叙述的形象、场景、段落等,就像一串联系在一起的珍珠项链一样吗?是 一幅梦境中的风景画吗,是一些思想的汇集吗?

电影剧本究竟是什么?

首先,它不是小说,当然它也绝对不是戏剧。

如果你看一部小说而且尝试着去确定它的基本特性时,你会发现那种戏剧性行为动作、故事线等,时 常是发生在主要人物的头脑中。我们(读者)是在偷窥主人公的思想、感情、言语、行为动作、记忆、梦 幻、希望、野心、见识和更多的东西。如果出现了另外一位人物,那么故事线则随着视角而变化,但时常 是又返回到原来的主要人物那里。在小说中,所有的行为动作都发生在人物的头脑中──在戏剧性行为动 作的“头脑幻景”之中。

在戏剧(舞台剧)中,行为动作和故事线则发生在舞台前拱架下面的舞台上,而观众是第四面墙,偷听舞台人物的秘密。人物用语言来交谈他们的希望、梦幻、过去和将来的计划,讨论他们的需求、欲望、恐惧和矛盾等。这样,戏剧中的行为动作产生于戏剧的对白语言之中,它本身就是用口头讲述出来的文字

电影则不同。电影是一种视觉媒介,它把一个基本的故事线戏剧化了。它所打交道的是图像、画面、一小片和一段拍好的胶片;一个钟在滴滴答答地走动、一个窗子正在打开、一个人在看、两个家伙在笑、一辆汽车在弯道上拐弯、一个电话铃在响等等。一个电影剧本就是由画面讲述出来的故事,还包括语言和描述,而这些内容都发生在它的戏剧性结构之中。

一部电影剧本就是一个由画面讲述出来的故事。

它象名词(noun)──指的是一个人或几个人,在一个地方或几个地方,去干他或她的事情。所有的电影剧本都贯彻执行这一基本前提。

一部故事片是一个视觉媒介,它是把一条基本的故事线加以戏剧化。如同所有的故事一样,它有一个明确的开端、中段和结尾。如果我们拿来一个电影剧本,把它象一幅画那样挂在墙上来审视,那么它看起 来就象下面那个图表。

第一幕 第二幕 第三幕

开端(beginning) 中段(middle) 结尾(end)

│ │

A──·───┼───·───────┼─────Z

│ │

建 置(setup) 对抗 (confrontation) 结 局(resolution)

第1~30页 第30~90页 第90~120页

情节点Ⅰ(Plot Point) 情节点Ⅱ

第25——27页 第85——90页

所有的电影剧本都包括这一基本的线性结构。

我们把这一电影剧本的模式称之为示例(Paradigm)①。

它就是一个模特儿,一个式样,一个构思的规划。

表中的示例象一张桌子:一张桌面加上(通常是)四条腿。在此示例范围内,可有方桌子、长桌子、圆桌子、高桌子、矮桌子、矩形桌子、可调节的桌子等等。以此示例为样板,我们可以随意制作各种各样的桌子──反正都是一张桌面加上(通常是)四条腿。

这个示例是确定无疑的。

上面的图表就是一个电影剧本的示例。

下面我们将其分解:

第一幕,或称开端

一个标准电影剧本的篇幅大约有120页,或长两个小时。

不论你的剧本全用对话、全用描写,或两者兼有之,均可按一分钟一页来计算。

规矩是不变的──电影剧本中的一页等于银幕时间一分钟。

第一幕是开端,可看成建置(setup)部分,这是因为你要用30页左右的稿纸去建置(确定)你的故事。如果你去看电影,你时常会自觉或不自觉地做出判断──你是否喜爱这部影片。今后看电影时,请注意一下,你需要多长时间做出你是否喜爱这部影片的决定。一般大约十分钟左右。也就相当于你写的电影剧本的头十页。你应该及时地抓住你的读者。

你应该用大约十页的篇幅来让读者明白谁是你的主要人物,什么是故事的前提,故事的情境是什么。以《唐人街》(Chinatown)为例:第一页使我们知道杰克·吉蒂斯(杰克·尼科尔森JackNicholson饰)是地区调查所的一位不拘小节的私人侦探。在第五页我们认识了一位墨尔雷太太(狄安娜·莱德Di-

aneLadd饰)。她要雇用杰克·吉蒂斯去调查“我丈夫和谁正在乱搞”。这是这部电影剧本的主要问题,而且它提供了一股导致最后解决的戏剧动力。

在第一幕结尾处要有一个情节点。所谓情节点就是一个事变或事件,它紧紧织入故事之中,并把故事转向另一方向。这一事件一般出现在第25~27页之间。在《唐人街》之中,当报纸上发表了声称墨尔雷先生在“爱巢”之中被人抓住的故事之后,真的墨尔雷太太(费伊·邓纳维FayeDunaway饰)和她的律师来到事务所,恐吓说要提出诉讼。她是不是那位雇用杰克·尼科尔森②的真的墨尔雷太太?又是谁雇人冒充墨尔雷太太呢?这一切都是为什么?这个事件就把故事转引到了另一个方向:杰克·尼科尔森作为事件的幸存者必须弄清楚,是谁在摆布他,并且为了什么。

第二幕,或称对抗

第二幕是你故事的主体部分。一般是在剧本的第30页至90页。它之所以称为电影剧本的对抗部分,是因为一切戏剧的基础都是冲突(conflict)。一旦你给自己的人物规定出需求(need),亦即在剧本中他想要达到什么目的,他的目标是什么,你就可以为这一需求设置障碍(obstacles),这样就产生了冲突。在《唐人街》这个侦探故事中,第二幕就是杰克·尼科尔森与一些势力发生了冲突,这些势力不愿意让他调查出谁应该对墨尔雷先生之死以及争水丑闻负责。杰克·尼科尔森所需要克服的障碍支配着这个故事的戏剧动作(dramaticaction)。

第二幕结尾处的情节点一般发生在第85页至90页之间。在《唐人街》中,第二幕的结尾的情节点就是:杰克·尼科尔森在墨尔雷先生被谋杀的水池中找到了一副眼镜,并知道它不是墨尔雷的就是属于那个谋杀者的。这样就把故事引入到结局部分。

第三幕,或称结局

第三幕通常发生在第90页至第120页之间,是故事的结局。

故事是如何结束的?主人公怎么样了?他是活着还是死了?

他是成功还是失败了?等等。你的故事需要有一个有力的结尾,以便使人理解并求得完整。那种模棱两可,含义暧昧的结尾,现在已经过时了。

所有的电影剧本都贯彻着这一基本的线性结构。

戏剧性结构可以被规定为:一系列互为关联的事情、情节或事件按线性安排最后导致一个戏剧性的结 局。

如何安排这些结构组成部分,决定了你的电影的形式。以《安妮·霍尔》(AnnieHall)为例,它是一个由闪回来叙述的故事,但也有一个明确的开端、中段和结尾。《去年在马里昂巴德》 AnneederniereaMarienbad)也是一样。《公民凯恩》(CitizenKane)、《广岛之恋》(Hiroshimamonamour)和《午夜牛郎》(MidnightCowboy)都是如此。

所以这个示例是起作用的。

第一幕 第二幕 第三幕

│ │

────·─┼──────·─┼─────

│ │

建置 对抗 结局

情节点Ⅰ 情节点Ⅱ

Ⅰ Ⅱ

它是一个模特儿,一个式样,一个构思的规划;一个技巧高超的电影剧本就是这个样子的。它为我们提供了关于电影剧本结构的总观。如果你弄清楚了它就是这个样子的话,你可以简单地把你的故事“装”进去就行了。

所有的好电影剧本都符合这个示例吗?

肯定是的。

但不必盲目相信我的话。你把它当成一件工具来使用它;对它发生疑问,去研究它,并且思考它。

也许有人不相信它。可能不相信会有什么开端、中段和结尾。你可能说:艺术如同生活一样,它充其量不过是在某个巨大的中间部分中偶然发生的几个个人的“重要时刻”,并没有什么开端也没有什么结尾。它正如库特·冯尼格特(KurtVonnegut)所称,是“一系列偶然的时刻被随意地串联在一起”。

我不同意上述这种看法。

请问:一个人出生、生活到死亡,难道不象是开端、中段和结尾吗?

想一想伟大文明的兴起与衰亡吧──如:古埃及、古希腊、古罗马帝国,它们都是从一个小小的社团萌芽,发展到权力鼎盛时期,然后衰败直至覆灭。

想一想一颗星的诞生与消亡,或者宇宙的开端,根据现在大多数科学家已经赞同的“大统一”理论,如果宇宙有其开端的话,那它必然也应该有一个结尾。

想一想我们身体的细胞吧!它们从补充、恢复到再生这一循环周期要用多少时间呢?只要七年──在七年中我们身体中一些细胞要死亡,别的一些细胞要生殖、活动、死亡,然后再生。

想一想你获得某项新工作的第一天吧!你要和新同事相识,要承担一些新的职责,直到后来你决定离职、退休或者被解雇。

电影剧本也毫无例外。它们有自己明确的开端、中段和结尾。

这是戏剧性结构的基础。

如果你不相信这个示例的话,那请再做一次检验,来证明我错了。请去看一部影片或看几部影片,看一看它们是否符合这个示例。

如果你对电影剧本写作感兴趣的话,你就应该时常这样去做。你看的每一部影片都能成为你的学习材料,帮助你理解什么是故事影片,什么不是故事影片。

你还应该尽可能多读电影剧本,以便使你明白剧本的形式和结构。现在很多电影剧本印成了书,在许多书店里出售。也有一些剧本已绝版了,但你可以在自己的藏书里去找,或者从大学里的戏剧艺术部的图书馆里去借阅。

我让我的学生们阅读并研究一些电影剧本,如:《唐人街》、《网络》(Network)、《洛奇》(Rocky) 、《秃鹰的三天》(ThreeDaysoftheCondor)、《非法挣钱人》(Hastler)(选自简装本的罗伯特·罗逊的《三个剧本集》,现已绝版)、《安妮·霍尔》,《哈罗德与摩德》(HaroldandMaude)等。

这些剧本都是很好的教材。如果找不到它们,那就读一下你所能看到的任何电影剧本,读得越多越好

示例是有用的。

它是所有好的电影剧本的基础。

练习:

到电影院去看电影。当影院光线暗淡下来影片开始后,请问一下你自己究竟需要多少时间能做出“喜 欢”或“不喜欢”这部电影的决定。一旦你明确做出决定后,请看一下手表,记下时间。

如果你发现一部你真正欣赏的影片,不妨再看一遍。看一看这部影片是否真正符合这个示例。再看一看你自己能否分解出各个部分,找出它的开端、中段和结尾。记下:故事是如何开始建立的,你需要多少时间能知道这个影片讲的是什么,你是否被这部影片所吸引,或者是被硬拖到影片故事中去。然后再找出

第一幕结尾处与第二幕结尾处的情节点,看看它们是如何导致结局的。

————————

①原文Paradigm本书均译为“示例”。但这个词的实际意义比通常我们所理解的示例有更广泛的外延 涵义。在语法学中,这个词专指(动词、名词的)词形变化表。而本书作者使用这一词则指电影剧本结构的变化表,为了统一,本书内则把此词译为“示例”。

②本文作者在分析电影剧本及影片时,习惯把剧中人和扮演者混在一起议论。

篇7:应用文写作基础知识

全文共 11168 字

+ 加入清单

小编今天与大家一起探讨一下应用文写作基础知识

第一节 应用文的主题

应用文写作基础知识既有与一般文体写作的共通之处,更多的是其在写作知识运用上的独特性,只有掌握其独特性,才能正确、规范地写好应用文体。

一、主题的特点 (主题单一性、主题先行性、主题显露性)

应用文的主题就是解决问题的方法、建议。其主题是十分明确直接的,主题的确立大多不是写作者有感而发,而是应客观实际的需要,为解决实际问题而产生的,由此可以说应用文主题就是解决问题的具体方法。因此应用文的主题具有以下特点:

文学作品的主题是从生活中、从已获取的材料中提炼出来的,往往反对主题先行。而应用文主题的确立与文学作品主题的确立不同,其主题确立在全文写作之前,所谓“意在笔先”。因为应用文总是先产生了具体问题而后产生写作的需求,而解决这一问题的方法、结论往往也产生在文章写作之前;同时执笔者的写作行为往往也是被动的,是应解决问题而动笔,写作的过程更是确切地体现主题。如《国务院关于同意黑龙江省调整哈尔滨市部分行政区划的批复》一文就是为答复《调整哈尔滨市部分行政区划的请示》而写的文章,表示同意请示提出的请求事项而作,主题一定是确立在写作之前。

一般说文学作品的主题具有其复杂性,对主题的理解更呈多元化。然而应用文的主题则必须单一、明确,读者对主题的理解不允许多元,而要求理解上的同一性,这样才利于统一认识,更有利于问题的解决。如:《关于当代青年消费问题的调查报告》一文就消费观念、消费现状、消费趋势和消费结构等四个方面,展开调查,尽管涉及面广,材料较丰富,但文章紧紧围绕“当代青年消费”这一中心,内容集中,一题一议,主题单一、明确。

文学作品的主题要求含蓄、曲折,令人回味。而应用文写作就不同,要求直截了当地点明主题,表明态度,提出解决问题的措施和办法,对文章所涉及的各类问题,必须有明确的观点立场,应该怎么做,解决什么问题,达到什么目的,都要明确地表达出来。

二、主题的表现方法 (标题显旨、开头点旨、结尾点旨)

应用文主题的表达要做到明确、显露。那么怎么才能做到主题从文章中显露出来呢?下面就给大家介绍几种表现方法:

标题显旨,就是在文章的标题中直接点明主题。如《三季度物价水平再次转降,出口增速趋于稳定》,这篇经济活动分析报告的标题就直接点明了主题,让人一看就大致明白了文章的主要内容,主题十分显露。这不失为是一种使主题显现的好方法。

这种方式是在文章的开头或每一段落的开头用简短的语句陈述主题,使主题凸现出来。如《 2001 年经济形势展望》一开头就指出: “展望 2001 年,经济回升的势头还比较微弱,促进经济的持续向好仍然需要克服许多困难。” 开宗明义,点明主题。再如《靠名牌赢得市场——关于深圳市飞亚达(集团)股份有限公司的调查》一文在 “启示:现代企业必须重视实施名牌战略” 的小标题下,分三段来阐述这一问题,在每段开头用段首句点明主旨:第一段的段 首句: 实施名牌战略是提高产品质量、提升企业品味的内在要求。 第二段的段首句: 实施名牌战略是企业参与市场竞争尤其是国际市场竞争的客观需要。 第三段的段首句: 实施名牌战略是增强国家经济实力的重要手段。 在这三句主题句的提示下,每段的中心就十分明了。

这种方式是在文章的的结尾之处点明文章主题。如李政道的论文《基础、应用科学与生产三者关系》一文就是采用这一方法结尾。文章的结尾指出: “我再重复一下,没有基础学科就没有应用学科,没有应用学科就没有生产学科,三者是紧密结合在一起的。” 非常清晰地显示了主题。

三、主题的作用 (主题决定材料的选取、主题决定文种的选用、主题决定结构的安排、主题决定表达方式的选用)

第二节 应用文的材料

一、材料的特点 (材料的真实性、材料的现实和新颖性、材料的典型性)

应用文写作对材料是十分依赖的,常言道“巧妇难为无米之炊”,为了表现主题我们需要收集一系列材料,或综合或舍取运用到文章的写作之中,使主题真实立体地表现出来。应用文材料的使用除了与文学作品有共通之处外,更多地体现自身特点:

应用文在材料的选用过程中不准改变材料本身性质,必须保持材料的真实性,对材料的时间、地点、数据、事实过程及结果都不能任意改动,否则就会使材料本身的价值发生变异,导致歪曲事实的真相,弄虚作假的后果,失去应用文的主题应有的价值,不仅不能解决问题,反而于事无补。应用文要求的真实是“绝对的真实”,也就是说所有材料要确凿无误、持之有据。不仅对搜集到的材料要反复核实,在材料的解释上,也要有科学的态度,实事求是。

应用文写作是为了解决现实问题而作的即时之作,其主要的材料需选取能反映现实的新颖材料。所谓现实是指,围绕文章要解决的问题所存在的事实(数据)材料而非通过联想和推论得到的材料。如在《新的消费热点:出门旅游过年》一文中,为了陈述出门旅游过年的现状,就采用了大量的事实(数据)材料: “根据国家旅游局对江苏、广东、云南、海南、北京、福建、广西、四川、黑龙江、湖南、山东、山西等 13 个省、自治区、直辖市的调查,……今年春节期间,这些地区直接由旅行社接待的国内旅游人次比往年至少有 15 %的增长……以上 13 个省、区、市的旅行社,春节期间共接待旅游者 124 万人次,旅行社营业收入 14 亿元。” 文中采用的材料都是新近现实发生的,这是大多数应用文材料的特点。所谓新颖是指,材料本身是新近产生的,如新事实、新政策、新的统计数据、新发现的问题等和用新的角度重新审视其新意。

所谓典型性是指那些最能支持主题和说明问题的材料。典型材料可以是一个具体的事例,一些有说服力的数据和一些带有普遍性的现象。如题为《“小解放”为何俏销湖北》的市场调查报告中,在说明“优质服务获得良好口碑”这一经验时,采用了这样一则事实材料: “去年 10 月的一天傍晚,河南省郑州市某单位的一辆小解放牌车在去广州途径武汉时,在武汉黄鹤楼处出现问题,求助电话打到了该销售中心,中心经理立即亲自带队迅速赶到现场,发现该车是用户对后驱动桥端面螺丝没拧紧而发生齿轮油漏尽,导致差速器锥齿烧损。当维修人员在后半夜将修好的车交给用户时,用户激动地说虽然我们不属于该省管辖,又没带保用手册,并且问题又是因我们使用不当所致,你们还这样及时周到地服务,太让我们感动了!‘小解放走到哪服务到哪,此言不虚,以后再买车,还买‘小解放。” 这一材料就是一则很能表现主题的材料,是典型的材料。 直接获取

二、材料的选取 (获取材料的方法、间接获取、围绕主题,挖掘材料的意义、材料的使用 根据主题的需要,进行详略处理、合理安排材料,注重条理)

如何获取材料,哪些材料是应用文写作值得关注的?下面我们谈谈这个问题:

在实践之中积累材料。在自身及周围同事的工作实践中做个有心人,时刻关注有价值的事件及数据,如在工作中及时对做了什么工作、采用了什么方法、取得了什么效果、有哪些人参与等信息及时记录收集。

在观察中掌握材料。在观察时要做到实事求是,防止主观武断、先入为主,同时要全面、系统、动态地进行观察,以获取真实、广泛、完整的材料,并能把观察所得及时整理成文字,给写作提供基础。

在调查中拓展材料。个人的实践和视野总是有限的,观察也不可能做到深入细致,这样就需要走向实际、走向社会,向有关人士了解情况,做一些调查,以扩大自己的视野,获取材料上的补充。经济类的应用文,调查是必不可少的步骤,如市场调查报告,市场预测报告需在调查之后,才能动笔。

通过查阅文献资料获取材料。应用文写作材料常常从有关文件、正式出版物,以及会议资料中获取材料,为写入具体文章之用,因此大量查阅文献资料来获取材料,是应用文写作经常采用的方法。

获取材料是写作的第一步。总的来说,获取材料要求以多为好,以全为贵。材料多了,便于比较、鉴别,更有选择的余地;材料全面,观点才能不至于偏颇,因此,动笔之前,应当围绕主题,占有详尽而充实的材料。

其次,强调对感性材料的分析研究,不能停留在表面的认识上,要挖掘材料能凸现主题的一面,使其在文章中发挥挖掘主题的作用。如有这样一则材料 : 某日,某国驻广州领事馆的外交官员去珠江三角洲某市参观,市长亲自接待,但讲不好普通话请了一个翻译,本来 10 分钟就可以讲完的话,结果用了 20 分钟。此外交官用标准的普通话问:广东不是在大力推广普通话吗么? 这则材料从不同的角度可展现不同的主题,但意义深浅不一。从较粗浅的角度看,可表现“市长不重视说普通话”的主题;进一步挖掘可表现“我们的官员素质的高低,直接关乎办公的效率”。这样的材料还可以根据主题的需要进行开拓。同学可以动动脑筋来挖掘一下。

使用材料时,要分清主次。对材料的加工整理,无非是为了突出文章的主题,加强应用文的表达效果,处理材料的详略要以此为据。突出事件特征的材料要详写,一般材料可略写;处于主体地位的材料详写,处于从属地位、过渡的材料略写;读者不熟悉的材料详写,熟悉的略写;材料之间角度相异的详写,材料之间相同的略写。

根据主题的需要,按照一定的组织形式,安排材料的先后顺序,在安排顺序时要考虑材料的主次、时间的先后、材料间的逻辑顺序、人们认识事物的规律、事物发展的过程等因素。

最后,数字材料是应用文写作中十分重要的材料,数字有时比文字材料更具体、准确、更能说明问题。因此,要注意: ⑴ 真实、准确地用好数据材料。 ⑵ 运用统计数据,展开分析论证,更好地为主题服务。 ⑶ 适当地使用统计图表。 ⑷ 变抽象的数字为具体,使其形象。如有两篇介绍乐山大佛的文字,其中一篇在介绍时用了这样一些数字: “乐山大佛身高 71 米 ,头高 14 . 7 米 ,宽 10 米 。” 这些数字看似具体清晰,但比较抽象,大佛的高大这一主题没有凸现出来。另一段文字这样写道: “佛像有三十多层楼高,耳朵有四人高,每只脚背上可以停五辆解放牌汽车,脚大拇指上,可以摆一桌酒席。” 这段文字也用了数字,但采用文字叙述的方法,使抽象的数字形象了,大佛的高大形象仿佛就在眼前,极好地体现了主题。

第三节 应用文的结构

一、应用文结构的特点 (固定性、条理性、文种不同结构不同)

应用文是经过长期写作实践,逐渐形成较固定的写作结构,以适应实际工作需要,使写作更快速,阅读更便捷,提高办事效率。特别是公文写作,其格式更规范,结构更固定。

应用文写作要求有严密的思路,表现在结构上以求清晰有条理。在写作中要根据主题的需要安排好结构。如写事件,就应按“开端——发展——结果”的顺序安排结构;写问题就应按“发现问题——分析问题——解决问题”的顺序安排结构。

凡文种都有相对稳定的结构样式,应用文写作结构安排需适应不同文体的要求。如写合同就需要将合同的条款按标的、数量、质量、价款等内容分条列项地写清楚;写通知要按目的依据、事项、执行要求的顺序安排结构。

二、常见的应用文结构模式

(一)单段式

正文内容用一个自然段来表达。用于内容少而单一,不便分开,往往采用一段文字来表达。如写在商品外包装上的说明文;公文中的函、批复,也常用一段文字来进行写作。“玉兰油”写在外包装上的说明: “经实验证明能帮助减少细纹。四星期内,肌肤重现青春光泽。请不要涂抹在眼睛及眼睑周围。如不慎入眼,即用清水彻底洗清。如有持续眼睛刺激,请向医生咨询。如有持续皮肤刺激,请停止使用。请置于儿童接触不到的地方。” 这就是单段式。

(二)两段式

正文内容用两个自然段来表达。用于内容简单,不需每层内容都分段。这种结构模式,一般用于以下几种情况:

1 .把结语部分内容和主体内容分开写,单列一个自然段,成为两段式。即行文的缘由和行文事项为一段,希望、要求等结语为一段。

2 .写作目的缘由、行文事项各为一段。

3 .在转发、发布性公文中,将发布或转发的文件名和发文意见列为一段,执行要求另为一段。

4 .在答复性公文中,将表示收到对方文件为一段,而答复事项为另一段。

5 .没有开头、结语部分,将主体内容列为两段。

(三)三段式

这是短篇应用文比较规范的常用模式。正文把写作目的缘由、写作事项、结尾分为三段来写。

(四)多段式

它用于内容较多,篇幅较长的应用文书,总共有四个自然段以上。一般是开头概述基本情况、说明原因、目的、依据,结尾单独成段或省略结尾,主体部分内容分为若干个段,各部分不分条列项。如短文式的说明书、简单的市场预测报告等。内容多、篇幅长的应用文书,一般不宜采用多段式,宜采用将主体内容分成几部分,用小标题或总分条文式。

(五)条款式

用分条列项的形式安排结构。规章制度、计划、合同和职能部门的一些文书,较多使用这种形式。全文从头到尾都用条款组织内容,给人以眉目清楚、排列有序的印象。

(六)表格式

这是应用文不同于其他文体所特有的一种结构形式。表格式通常有以下两种形式:

1 .由职能部门或企事业管理部门或企业如银行、厂矿、公司等单位,事先印制好表格式的规范文本,将有关内容分项列出,各项之后留下空白,让使用或合作单位和个人按规定填写。表格文书一般要注明填写要求和注意事项。如申请专利、商标的文书、合同、税务征管文书、财务会计文书,大都采用这种形式。

2 .作者单位临时制作的表格式文书。根据写作目的,将有关统计数据编制成表格。

三、应用文结构的基本内容及写法

(一)标题

应用文写作的标题,要求充分体现主题,有的标题还有规范要求。这与文学作品形式多样、灵活多变的标题有着明显的不同。应用文的标题通常有三种形式:

1 .公文式标题。这类标题程式性强,表达直接而少变化,主要用于公文。

2 .新闻式标题。新闻式标题通常又称文章式标题,又可分为单标题和双标题两种形式。单标题有的直接提出文章主题,如 “小商品也要高质量” 、 “做好纪检信息工作实践与体会” ;有的概述主要内容,如 “积极财政政策仍将持续至少两到三年的时间” ;有的在标题中提出问题,如 “日本经济何时走出低谷” 。

双标题是有正题和副题的双行标题,其中正题符合单标题的要求,更多地突出文章主题,副题则对正题起补充作用,常常说明应用文的内容范围和文种,如 “靠名牌赢得市场——关于深圳市飞亚达(集团)股份有限公司的调查” 、 “繁重 · 活跃 · 稳定 · 上升—— 2002 年国内市场发展趋势” 。

3 .论文式标题。这类标题或表达文章的观点和内容或点明所论述范围。如 “核心竞争力——企业制胜的根本” 、 “双峰县农村劳动力转移的调查与思考” 。

(二)开头

应用文写作开头担负着统领全文,揭示主题或全文的作用。开头要求开门见山,直接显露,常见的开头方式有:

1 .概述式。这种方式要求用简明扼要的语言,围绕主题介绍有关情况或背景。如一篇题为《加强民族团结 繁荣民族事业》的总结开头: “山东省青州市是少数民族居住比较集中的地区之一,有回、满、蒙古、朝鲜、土家等 27 个民族, 2 . 6 万余人,占全市人口的 2 .5 %。近年来,青州市积极加强 民族团结,繁荣民族事业,有力地推动了全市经济和社会各项事业全面发展。” 就是用了这一开头方式。报告、会议纪要、调查报告等文种也常用此开头方式。

2 .说明依据式。开头引用上级指示精神或有关法律,常以“根据”、“按照”、“遵照”等词语领起下文。如《关于粮食政策性财务挂帐停息的意见》一文的开头: “根据中共中央、国务院关于妥善解决粮食财务挂帐问题的一系列文件精神,结合各地清理粮食财务挂帐的实际情况,经过反复研究,对粮食财务挂帐实行停息的有关政策提出如下意见”。 这种方式常在通知、批复、通告、规章等文种的开头使用。

3 .陈述目的式。开头以简明的语言,直接说明写作的目的和意义,常用介词“为”、“为了”领起下文。如《国务院关于成立经济贸易办公室的通知》一文开头写道: “为适应加快改革开放和经济建设的新形势,加强宏观调控和协调日常经济工作,国务院第 100 次常务会议决定,……”。

4 . 说明原因式。开头常用“由于”、“鉴于”、“因为”等词领起下文,也可以简述发文原因,再引出写作目的。如《广州市建设用地起坟通告》的开头 “因建设的需要,经核准,市公安局天河区分局征用天河区东圃镇堂下乡(村)土地。为便利建设工程顺利进行,……”。

5 .议论式。开头用议论的表达方法,表达作者的看法,提出观点。如《现代化企业需要什么样的复合型会计人才》的开头: “随着社会主义市场经济的不断深入发展,会计工作也不断拓宽,过去那种单一的会计知识结构已远远不能适应会计管理工作的需要,会计人员作为企业经济管理的重要的专门人才,必须相应地提高自身的专业素质,改变原来那种单一的知识结构,以适应市场经济发展的需要。因此,培养造就一批复合型会计人才是当前会计工作的一项重要任务,也是企业发展向现代化迈进的关键所在。”

6 .提问式。先提出问题,然后引出下文。这种开头方式能引起读者的注意和思考。这种开头方式常见于调查报告、学术论文的写作。如《核心竞争力——企业制胜的根本》的开头: “在激烈的市场竞争中,一个企业制胜的根本是什么?为什么有的企业能长盛不衰,有的企业只能成功一时,而有的企业却连一点成功的机会都没有?笔者一直为这些问题所困惑。” 这篇论文就是采用了提问式开头。

(三)结尾

应用文的结尾讲究言尽意尽,不留“余味”,不添“蛇足,更不能草率。常用的结尾方法有:

1 .强调式。对文中提出的问题作强调说明,以引起重视。

2 .结论式。对文中的主要观点或问题,加以归纳总结或略作重申,以加深印象。

3 .说明式。对与主体内容有关但性质不同的问题或事项作补充交代、说明,以保证内容的完整性,如公文结尾交待施行日期、执行范围、传达对象、与该文规定不符的原有规定如何处置等;论文结尾处说明尚未解决而应另作讨论的问题。

4 .号召式。提出希望,发出号召,展望未来。如公文的通报、市场预测、计划等常用这种结尾形式。如《关于成都矿产综合利用研究所值班人员勇斗歹徒先进事件的通报》一文结尾就是采用这一方法。

5 .建议式。针对设定的施行目标、产生的问题提出意见和建议。

除了上述几种结尾方式,还有请求式、责令式、表态式等不一一列举,有的则没有结尾,自然收尾。

第四节 应用文的表达方式及语言

一、表达方式

应用文写作中常用的表达方式只有叙述、说明、议论三种,而描写、抒情一般在广告、调查报告、经济新闻等文体中偶尔使用。我们现在只谈叙述、说明、议论这三种方式在应用文体中的使用。

(一)叙述

叙述这种表达方式是应用文体写作常用的一种方法。有的以叙述事实作立论的依据,如通报、经济活动分析报告、市场调查、总结等;有的以叙述事实为依据进行决策和预测;有的对事实作如实反映和记载,如会议纪要、合同、诉讼公文等。叙述在应用文写作中有如下几个特点:

1 .以记事为主

应用文写作反映现实,解决问题,与记叙文以写人为主不同,而是多以记事为主,如反映经济活动状况、市场情况、经济信息、介绍典型经验、阐述事情原委、总结工作等,采用叙述来记事。

2 .叙述客观真实

文学作品的叙述可作艺术加工,所述事件不必是客观存在的事实。但应用文不同,其所述事实,必须客观真实,不允许对事实夸大或缩小,更不能歪曲事实或主观臆造,否则就会导致决策失误,使经济活动混乱,使企业和消费者蒙受损失。如市场预测所依据的市场事实失真,那么预测结果必定出现很大的偏差,从而导致决策的失误。

3 .以概括叙述为主

文学作品需通过叙述细节来塑造人物形象,展开故事情节。而应用文写作则是通过叙述为文章得出正确结论作依据。如通报的叙述是为后面阐述事实的性质,达到对这一事件学习,鉴戒或引起注意的目的而服务的。叙述本身不是全文的核心(主题)所在,因而应用文写作的叙述大多用简明扼要的概括叙述。

4 .多用顺叙

为使应用文条理清晰,让读者掌握理解所述的客观事实,在文章中常常使用顺叙。在叙述时有的按照时间顺序,有的以事件发展的顺序,有的按人们认识事物的客观过程来叙述,这样叙述能使较复杂的事实头绪清晰,一目了然。

5 .语言较平实

应用文的语言要求平铺直叙,较少使用修饰性词语,笔法较朴实。因为应用文语言是需把握问题实质,直接表现主题,为主题服务,而不像文学作品那样文笔的曲折,主题的含蓄 , 讲究语言的修饰性、词语的色彩,常用修辞手法,应用文的实用性决定了其语言的简洁朴实。

(二)说明

说明这一表达方式在应用文中是与叙述相结合的,起到对客观事物真实介绍说明的作用,有很多文种都依赖这一表达方式。如说明书、报告、请示、经济活动分析、合同、自荐书等,都离不开说明。说明在应用文写作中表现出以下几个特征:

1 .说明客观、科学

通过说明真实客观地反映事物的真实面貌,本质特征,这就要求说明需客观、科学、严肃。

2.多用数字进行说明

说明不但要客观真实,而且要做到准确无误,用数字进行说明就能起到这样的作用。因此在应用文写作中就少不了数字进行说明,特别是需要反映量的变化时,数字的作用就尤为突出。

3.综合使用多种说明方法

在说明方法使用的过程中,常常是多种方法结合同时使用。如数字说明和比较说明、定义说明和分类说明等说明方法结合运用,这样可以把事物说得更具体、准确。

(三)议论

应用文写作常常用议论的方式进行评论、分析,探寻事物发展的规律,阐述主题。其议论有以下几个特点:

1 .重数据、重材料

与议论文的议论不同,应用文中议论不是靠言论的雄辩,而是需要无可辩驳的事实材料和数据为依据,正可谓“事实胜于雄辩”。应用文反对不切实际的议论。如在一篇《三季度物价水平》的经济活动报告中,对该季度的物价水平转降的情况分析是这样议论的:“ 三季度,居民消费价格总水平同比上涨 0.8 %,涨幅比二季度缩小 0.8 个百分比,其中 9 月份已转为下降,同比下降 0.1 %;社会商品零售价格总水平同比下降 0.9 %,已连续 4 个月处于下降之中,并且降幅在不断增大;工业品出厂价格指标同比下降 1.7 %,降幅比二季度增大 1.4 个百分点。各种物价总水平再次全面转降在很大程度上是外生性涨价因素所致,但这也清晰地表明困扰我国经济的紧缩和总需求不足问题并未真正消除,而只是被外生性涨价因素掩盖起来了。一旦政策支持力度减弱,经济就会再次下降。” 这段文字在议论时采用了大量的数据材料,材料充分,议论切合实际,得出的结论有说服力。

2 .常与说明、叙述等方式结合使用

夹叙夹议、说议结合,是应用文中的议论特点。应用文写作往往不单独进行完整的议论,议论依赖于所叙述的事实和说明的现象,是在事实和现象的基础上进行议论。如在一篇《靠名牌赢得市场》的调查报告中,文章是这样写的:“ 90 年代初,瑞士、日本各种品牌的钟表开始大规模进入中国市场。面对严峻的市场形势,公司决策层认真研究数量和质量的辩证关系,决定借鉴国外钟表工业发展的成功经验,走‘少而精的道路,即以提高‘单位面积的产出取胜,生产高技术含量、高附加值的产品,在工艺上精益求精,把人、财、物集中用到刀刃上,争取在最短的时间里后来居上。 ”这段文字采用夹叙夹议方法,材料具体,剖析深入,语言生动活泼。

二、 语言运用

应用文的语言与文学创作的语言有较大的差别,其主要特点是:

(一)程式化

程式化的语言是写作实践的产物,是应用写作实践中常用的习惯用语,这种语言已经约定成俗,得到广泛的认可和共识。学习掌握这种语言的关键是表达要简明合乎规范。程式化的语言根据功用不同,可大致分为下列几方面内容:

(二)书面化

应用文的写作性质决定其语言风格表现为简明、规范、严肃,而书面语能较好达到这一语言要求,因而应用文语言大多采用书面语进行书写。如《中共中央关于接受宋庆龄同志为中国共产党正式党员的决定》中写道: “她一贯是共产党最亲密的战友,是中国各族人民包括台湾同胞和海外侨胞衷心敬爱的领袖之一,是爱国主义、民主主义、国际主义和共产主义的伟大战士,是保卫世界和平事业久经考验的前驱,是全体中国少年儿童的慈爱的祖母……。” 中的“同胞”、“战士”、“祖母”等用的都是书面语,改为口语就不合适了。

(三)常用数词

应用文写作常用数字来说明问题,因此经常大量使用数字。在分析问题、说明问题时,运用数字,可以比较明确地表达事物的状态,从而加深对该事物的认识。如一个企业管理是否先进,只有运用同行业国内外的对比数字才能说明。邓小平同志在《关于科学和教育工作的几点意见》中,讲到我国科研人员少、队伍小时用了三个数字:美国科研队伍有 120 万人;前苏联是 90 万人;我们是 20 多万人。这三个数字勾勒出三个国家科研队伍的基本状况,十分清晰地说明了我国科研人员少、队伍小的现状。应用文常用的数字有以下几种:

(四)运用应用文语言的要求

1 .叙述语言需简洁、概括。

在进行叙述时要用最简短的语言陈述特定时空的信息,通过概述事实的主干,而不应纠缠于耗时费事的具体情节之中。如有一篇表彰通报是这样写的: “ ××× 在科学研究上走的是一条不平凡的路,他全心扑在科研上,而忘记了个人的事。有一次孩子病了,他妻子在家里忙着护理,打电话到 ××× 单位叫他赶回家把孩子送医院治疗。 ××× 接了电话答应后,电话筒一放他又埋进了实验。他妻子在家中左等右等等不到他回家,急得像热锅上的蚂蚁,又往 ××× 单位打电话,这时 ××× 正潜心做实验,电话铃声都没听见了。他妻子又急又气只好打 120 急救中心的电话,才把孩子送往医院治疗。他的小孩高烧退后,还在问他妈妈:‘爸爸又出差了吗?或者还没下班……” 该公文将 ××× 先进事迹作为表彰决定的理由时,不懂得以最简洁的文字陈述特定时空的信息,通过快叙概述事实的主干,而仍用记叙文慢叙写话的方法表述公文事实,结果摆脱不了耗时费字的情节纠缠,公文内容冗长,不简明扼要,失去了公文的品味,违背了文约事丰的要求。

2 .语言表达要严谨、有分寸。

应用文语言表达是否严谨有分寸,关系到对问题的判断、处理是否合理、准确。如一份处理决定,其中这样写道: “李××在 1998 年 9 月间收受×××工程公司的 50 万元的巨款。案发后李××还和×××工程公司经理及会计订立攻守同盟,妄图掩盖其过错”。 文中“过错”一词有失严谨,表述与事实不符,李××的行为不是过失而是严重犯罪。

3 .数据语言书写要规范、清晰、准确。

具体要做到以下几点:( 1 )在同一篇文章中序数数字的体例要统一,不能体例混杂。如 “农历初一至初 7 放假” 一句,前后数字体例书写不规范,需统一书写。同时分数与小数的体例也必须统一。如 “该县企业所得税收入完成 95.6 万元,比去年增长百分之十三 ” 也出现了混写的错误。( 2 )表示公元世纪、年代、年、月、日、时刻均需使用阿拉伯数字 , 而星期则用汉字。如” 21 世纪 ” 、“ 90 年代 ,“星期五”。( 3 )邻近两个数字并列表示概数时,应该用汉字书写,数字与数字之间不能用顿号将其隔开。如“ 3 、 4 天 ” 应写成”“三四天”,“七、八种”的“七”和“八”之间不能用顿号隔开。

4 .朴实、简洁。

应用文的语言要求准确无误,朴实无华,简洁有力,不像有些文学作品用华丽多彩的语言去描摹事物,呈现事物的形象,而是提倡朴素美,简洁美。如一篇公文是这样写的: “ 2000 年某天深夜,乌云密布,雷声隆隆,大雨倾盆而下,刹那间,美丽富饶的鱼米之乡被一片汪洋吞没。接连几天如注的暴雨,淹没了田野、冲毁了村庄和工厂,交通、电力、通讯一度中断。这百年不遇的特大洪涝灾害,给我乡造成了不可估量的损失。……” 这段语言就违反了应用文语言的写作要求,带有浓厚的文学色彩,不够朴实、简洁,也有失真实。

升初作文怎么写,怎么才能构思一篇好作文。下面是小编分享的关于小升初作文的写作基础,欢迎大家阅读!

一、素材的多角度立意

意大利着名画家达·芬奇的老师对达·芬奇所说的自己画蛋的体会:即使是同一只蛋,只要变换一下角度,形状便立即不同了。这告诉我们对生活中发生的事件我们可以多角度分析。文章源于生活,它的立意亦应多角度进行。

我们以一个发生在同学们身边的事件为例。

今年春天,我和爸爸来到高尔夫球场,第一次学打高尔夫球。看教练做很简单,我按照教练的要求去做,却发现和想象的不同,要么杆碰不上球,要么球出去就偏离了方向,经历了一次次失败,我终于成功了。

就这一事例,我们可从如下角度立意:

1、最大的敌人是自己,战胜自己就会走向成功;

2、一招一式,看似简单,做起来难,失之毫厘,谬以千里;

3、成功需要方法;四、运动带来快乐……

这样,一个素材,可以根据命题的不同,确定立意,设置情节,确定描写重点。但无论从哪个角度立意,打球的动作细节是不能丢的。

二、练习写好文章的细节

学生练习作文的过程中,很多孩子注意了情节的起伏,语言的流畅,但总感觉文章空泛,这是为什么呢?忽视了细节描写。

怎样写好细节,简单地说,细节描写要还原生活,去发现场景细节、服饰细节、语言细节、动作细节、心理细节等,按照生活本来的面目去描摹。一篇文章,恰到好处地运用细节描写,能起到烘托环境气氛、刻画人物性格和揭示主题思想的作用。

如何将“陌生叔叔帮我把车修好”写细,我们首先要还原生活场景,在头脑中勾勒出雪中修车图,再从这一图画中去寻找描写的细节。

这是一位同学的作文片断:“叔叔迅速地摘下手套,用右手拿着链条,左手帮着把链条搬过去,链条一点点地扣上去了,一节一节地扣住了后轮的齿轮。‘咣当’一声,链条滑了出来,这一次努力前功尽弃。我的心咯噔一下,万一叔叔告诉我修不好,我该怎么办呀!可事情并非如我想象,只见叔叔向拢起的双手呵了呵气,又蹲下了身子。他为了不让链条弹开,用右手把链条往前面齿轮上套住,然后右手拉住链条往后齿轮上移,左手护住链条不让它再滑出来。后来,他看到位置有些偏,就用左手把它移正再装,洁白的雪花落在了他冻得通红的满是油污的手上,我知道他的手一定很冷,很冷,可他的心一定很热,很热。终于,链条一节一节地和齿轮扣住了。他猛一转脚踏板,车子居然又完好地转动起来。”文章中最直观的细节是叔叔修车的动作细节,摘、拿、套、拉、护、移、转等动词的使用,写出了叔叔雪中修车的不容易,突出了人物精神。其次应当是外貌细节和心理细节的描写衬托了人物美好的心灵。

每个人观察生活的角度和经历不同,再现的生活场景也就不同,但无论采用怎样的方法,我们达到这样一种境地为最好——做到写人则如见其人,写景则如临其境。

三、整理生活中的素材

努力回忆六年来的校园生活,家庭生活中记忆尤为深刻的小事,哪怕是一次单手磕鸡蛋的经历都不要放过。因为孩子有对生活的观察、积累,有真实的体验、感受,他的表述一定会具体而生动,他所表达的情感一定是真实的。翻翻过去的作文、周记,从多个角度,搜集这样的素材,将细节完整地记录下来,进行分类整理。

有些家长大量地看作文选、杂志,想帮助孩子从上面搬些素材下来。我不大同意这样的做法,因为那不是孩子的生活,他很难像成人一样具有缜密的思维,进行合理的想象情节,他也很难描摹当时的细节,这样的作文不能打动读者。不如让作文选、杂志成为勾起孩子回忆生活的媒介,从与作者相似的经历中挖掘写作素材。如:从作文选上看奶奶为我掖被子的细节,想到冬天,妈妈买药回来,为我滴眼药时怕我嫌凉而搓手的动作,这样一来写母爱的文章就有了素材。

四、努力锤炼文章的语言

佳酿总是经过酿造才有它独特的芳醇,文章也是一样,经过锤炼的语言才是有生命力的语言,孔子说“言之无文,行而不远。”说的就是这个道理。

我们可尝试这样的几种方式,让语言焕发色彩。

在句式变换上下工夫。在表达强烈的情感时,可以将陈述句用反问、设问或感叹句的形式表达。

在准确地运用词汇上下工夫。在文章中可以用一些拟声词来丰富表达;另外,可使用叠词使描绘更加准确,而且能使语言具有节奏感,从而让语言富有音乐美。再有,四字词语和成语的使用,会使语言表达更为简练。   在恰当地运用修辞上下工夫。修辞不但使文章语言生动活泼,而且能调节音节,增强语言的音乐美,提高语言的表达效果。例如:“风追着雨,雨赶着风,风和雨联合起来追赶着天上的乌云,整个天地都处在雨水之中”一句,意思是说“大雨来了”。但是作者使用了拟人的手法,把风、雨当作正在奔跑的人,飞快地追赶天空的乌云,这样一说比“大雨来了”更能表现出雨来的之快、之急、之大。当然,修辞方法还有引用、夸张、排比、设问、反问等等,我们应根据需要采用。

An important aspect of education in the United States is the relationship between education and citizenship. Throughout its history this nation has emphasized public education as a means of transmitting democratic values, creating equality of opportunity, and preparing new generations of citizens to function in society. In addition, the schools have been expected to help shape society itself. During the 1950s, for example, efforts to combat racial segregation focused on the schools. Later, when the Soviet Union launched the first orbiting satellite, American schools and colleges came under intense pressure and were offered many incentives to improve their science and mathematics programs so that the nations would not fall behind the Soviet Union in scientific and technological capabilities.

Education is often viewed as a tool for solving social problems, especially social inequality. The schools, t is thought, can transform young people from vastly different backgrounds into competent, upwardly mobile adults. Yet these goals seem almost impossible to attain. In recent years, in fact, public education has been at the center of numerous controversies arising from the gap between the ideal and the reality. Part of the problem is that different groups in society have different have different expectations. Some feel that children should be taught basic job-related skills; still others believe education should not only prepare children to compete in society but also help them maintain their cultural identity (and, in the case of Hispanic children, their language). On the other hand, policymakers concerned with education emphasize the need to increase the level of student achievement and to improve parents in their children’s education.

Some reformers and critics have called attention to the need to link formal schooling with programs designed to address social problems. Sociologist Charles Moscos, for example, is a leader in the movement to expand programs like the Peace Corps, Vista, and Outward Bound into a system of voluntary national service. National service, as Moscos defines it, would entail “the full-time undertaking of public duties by young people whether as citizen soldiers or civilian servers-who are paid subsistence wages” and serve for at least one year. In return for this period of service, the volunteers would receive assistance in paying for college or other educational expenses.

Advocates of national service and school-to-work programs believe that education does not have to be confined to formal schooling. In devising strategies to provide opportunities for young people to serve their society, they emphasize the educational value of citizenship experiences gained outside the classroom. At this writing there is little indication that national service will become a new educational institution in the United States, although the concept is steadily gaining support among educators and social critics.

4. The Teacher’s Role

Given the undeniable importance of classroom experience, sociologists have done a considerable amount of research on what goes on in the classroom. Often they start from the premise that, along with the influence of peers, students’ experiences in the classroom are of central importance to their later development. One study examined the impact of a single first-grade teacher on her students’ subsequent adult status. The surprising results of this study have important implications. It is evident that good teachers can make a big difference in children’s lives, a fact that gives increased urgency to the need to improve the quality of primary-school teaching. The reforms carried out by educational leaders like James Comer suggest that when good teaching is combined with high levels of parental involvement the results can be even more dramatic.

Because the role of the teacher is to change the learner in some way, the teacher-student relationship is an important part of education. Sociologists have pointed out that this relationship is asymmetrical or unbalanced, with the teacher being in a position of authority and the student having little choice but to passively absorb the information provided by the teacher. In other words, in conventional classrooms there is little opportunity for the students to become actively involved in the learning process. On the other hand, students often develop strategies for undercutting the teacher’s authority: mentally withdrawing, interrupting, and the like. Hence, much current research assumes that students and teachers influence each other instead of assuming that the influence is always in a single direction.

5. Education Philosophy

For the past fifty years our schools have operated on the theories of John Dewey (1859-1953), an American educator and writer. Dewey believed hat the school’s job was to enhance the natural development of the growing child, rather than to pour information, for which the child had no context, into him or her. In the Dewey system, the child becomes the active agent in his own education, rather than a passive receptacle for facts.

Consequently, American schools are very enthusiastic about teaching “life skills” –logical thinking, analysis, creative problem--solving. The actual content of the lessons is secondary to the process, which is supposed to train the child to be able to handle whatever life may present, including all the unknowns of the future. Students and teachers both regard pure memorization as an uncreative and somewhat vulgar.

In addition to “life skills”, schools are assigned to solve the ever growing stoke of social problems. Racism, teenage pregnancy, alcoholism, drug use, reckless driving, and are just a few of the modern problems that have appeared on the school curriculum.

This all contributes to a high degree of social awareness in American youngsters.

6. Student Life

To the students, the most notable difference between elementary school and the higher levels is that in junior high they start “changing classes”. This means that rather than spending the day in one classroom, they switch classrooms to meet their different teachers. This gives them three or four minutes between classes in the hallways, where a great deal of the important social action of high school traditionally takes place. Students have lockers in these hallways, around which thy congregate.

Society in general does not take the business of studying very seriously. Schoolchildren have a great deal of free time, which they are encouraged to fill with extracurricular activities—sports, clubs, cheerleading, scouts—supposed to inculcate such qualities as leadership, sportsmanship, ability to organize, etc. those who don’t become engaged in such activities or have afterschool jobs have plenty of opportunity to “hang out”, listen to teenager music, and watch television.

Compared to other nations, American students do not have much homework. Studies also show that American parents have lower expectations for their children’s success in school than other nationalities do. (Historically, there has not been much correlation between American school success and success in later life.) “He’s just not a scholar”, the American parents might say, content that their son is on the swim team and doesn’t take drugs. (Some of the young do choose to study hard, for reason of their own, such as determining that the road to riches lies through Harvard Business School.)

What American schools do effectively teach is the competitive method. In innumerable ways children are pitted against each other—whether in classroom discussion, spelling bees, reading groups, or tests. Every classroom is expected to produce a scattering of A’s and F’s (teachers often grade A=excellent; B=good; C=average; D=poor; and F=failed). A teacher who gives all A’s looks too soft—so students are aware that they are competing for the limited number of top marks.

Foreign students sometimes don’t understand that copying from other people’s papers or from books is considered wrong and taken seriously. Here, it is important to show that you have done your own work and are displaying your own knowledge. It is more important than helping your friends to pass, whom we think do not deserve to pass unless they can provide their own answers. Group effort goes against the competitive grain, and American students do not study together as many Asians do. Many Asians in this country consider their group study habits a large contributor to their school success.

7. Adult Education

After complaining about many aspects of American life, a 40-year-old woman from Hong Kong concluded, “But where else could someone my age go back to school and get a degree in social work? Here you can change your whole life, start a new business, do what you really want to do.”

So at least to this person, school requirements weren’t inhibiting. And to millions of others, adult education is the path to a new career, or if not to a new career, to a new outlook. Schools generally encourage the older person who wants to start anew, and besides regular classes, schedule evening classes in special programs. Today there are so many people of retirement age in college that it is no longer remarkable.

8. Moral Relativism in American

Improving American education requires not doing new things but doing (and remembering) some good old things. At the time of our nation’s founding, Thomas Jefferson listed the requirements for a sound education in the Report of the Commissioners for the University of Virginia. In this landmark statement on American education, Jefferson wrote of the importance of education and writing, and of reading history, and geography. But he also emphasized the need “to instruct the mass of our citizens in these, their rights, interests, and duties, as men and citizens.” Jefferson believed education should aim at the improvement of both one’s “morals” and “faculties”. That has been the dominant view of the aims of American education for over two centuries. But a number of changes, most of them unsound, have diverted schools from these great pursuits. And the story of the loss of the school’s original moral mission explains a great deal.

Starting in the early seventies, “values clarification” programs started turning up in schools all over America. According to this philosophy, the schools were not to take part in their time-honored task of transmitting sound moral values; rather, they were to allow the child to “clarify” his own values (which adults, including parents, had no “rights” to criticize). The “values clarification” movement didn’t clarify values; it clarified wants and desires. This form of moral relativism said, in effect, that no set of values was right or wrong; everybody had an equal right to his own values; and all values were subjective, relative, and personal. This destructive view took hold with a vengeance.

In 1985 The York Times published an article quoting New York area educators, in slavish devotion to this new view, proclaiming, “They deliberately avoid trying to tell students what is ethically right and wrong.” The article told of one counseling session involving fifteen high school juniors and seniors. In the course of that session a student concluded that a fellow student had been foolish to return one thousand dollars she found in a purse at school. According to the article, when the youngsters asked the counselor’s opinion, “He told them he believed the girl had done the right thing, but that, of course, he would not try to force his values on them. ‘If I come from the position of what is wrong,’ he explained, ‘then I’m not their counselor.’”

Once upon a time, a counselor offered counselor, and he knew that an adult does not form character in the young by taking a stance of neutrality toward questions of right and wrong or by merely offering “choices” or “options”.

In response to the belief that adults and educators should teach children sound morals, one can expect from some quarters indignant objections (I’ve heard one version of it expressed countless times over the years): “Who are you to say what’s important?” or “Whose standards and judgments do we use?”

The correct response, it seems to me, is, is we ready to do away with standards and judgments? Is anyone going to argue seriously that a life of cheating and swindling is as worthy as a life of honest, hard work? Is anyone (with the exception of some literature professors at our elite universities) going to argue seriously the intellectual corollary, that a Marvel comic book is as good as Macbeth? Unless we are willing to embrace some pretty silly position, we’ve got to admit the need for moral and intellectual standards. The problem is that some people tend to regard anyone who would pronounce a definitive judgment as an unsophisticated Philistine or a closed-minded “elitist” trying to impose his view on everybody else.

The truth of the real world is that without standards and judgments, there can be no progress. Unless we are prepared to say irrational things—that nothing can be proven more valuable than anything else or that everything is equally worthless—we must ask the normative question. It may come, as a surprise to those who fell that to be “progressive” is to be value-neutral. But as Matthew Amold said, “the world is forwarded by having its attention fixed on the best things” and if the world can’t decide what the best things are, at least to some degree, then it follows that progress, and character, is in trouble. We shouldn’t be reluctant to declare that some things, some lives, books, ideas, and values are better than others. It is the responsibility of the schools to teach these better things.

At one time, we weren’t so reluctant to teach them. In the mid-nineteenth century, a diverse, widespread group of crusaders began to work for the public support of what was then called the “common school”, the forerunner of the public school. They were to be charged with the mission of school felt that the nation could fulfill its destiny only if every new generation was taught these values together in a common institution.

The leaders of the common school movement were mainly citizens who were prominent in their communities—businessmen, ministers, local civic and government officials. These people saw the schools as upholders of standards of individual morality and small incubators of civic and personal virtue; the founders of the public schools had faith that public education could teach good moral and civic character from a common ground of American values.

But in the past quarter century or so, some of the so-called experts became experts of value neutrality, and moral education was increasingly left in their hands. The commonsense view of parents and the publicthat schools should reinforce rather than undermine the values of home, family, and country, was increasingly rejected.

There are those today still that claim we are now too diverse a nation, that we consist of too many competing convictions and interests to instill common values. They are wrong. Of course we are a diverse people. We have always been a diverse people. And as Madison wrote in FederalistNo.10, the competing, balancing interests of a diverse people can help ensure the survival of liberty. But there are values that all American citizens share and that we should want all American students to know and to make their own: honesty, fairness, self-discipline, fidelity to task, friends, and family, personal responsibility, love of country, and belief in the principles of liberty, equality, and the freedom to practice one’s faith. The explicit teaching of these values is the legacy of the common schools, and it is a legacy to which we must return.

9. Schools Should Teach Values

People often said, “Yes, we should teach these values, but how do we teach them?” this question deserves a candid response, one that isn’t given often enough. It is by exposing our children to good character and inviting its imitation that we will transmit to them a moral foundation. This happens when teachers and principals, by their words and actions, embody sound convictions. As Oxford’s Mary Warnock has written, “You cannot teach morality without being committed to morality yourself; and you cannot be committed to morality yourself without holding that some things are right and others wrong.” The theologian Martin Buber wrote that the educator is distinguished from all other influences “by his will to take part in the stamping of character and by his consciousness that he represents in the eyes of the growing person a certain selection of what is, the selection of what is ‘right’, of what should be.” It is in this will, Buber says, in this clear standing for something, that the “vocation as an educator finds its fundamental expression.”

There is no escaping the fact that young people need as example principals and teachers who know the difference between right and wrong, good and bad, and who themselves exemplify high moral purpose.

As Education Secretary, I visited a class at Waterbury Elementary School in Waterbury, Vermont, and asked the students, “Is this a good school?” They answered, “Yes, this is a good school.” I asked them, “Why?” Among other things, one eight-year-old said, “The principal Mr. Riegel, makes good rules and everybody obeys them.” So I said, “Give me an example.” And another answered, “You can’t climb on the pipes in the bathroom. We don’t climb on the pipes and the principal doesn’t either.”

This example is probably too simple to please a lot of people who want to make the topic of moral education difficult, but there is something profound in the answer of those children, something education should pay more attention to. You can’t expect children to take messages about rules or morality seriously unless they see adults taking those rules seriously in their day-to-day affairs. Certain must be said, certain limits lay down, and certain examples set. There is no other way.

We should also do a better job at curriculum selection. The research shows that most “values education” exercises and separate courses in “moral reasoning” tend not to affect children’s behavior; if anything, they may leave children morally adrift. Where to turn? I believe our literature and our history are a rich quarry of moral literacy. We should mine that quarry. Children should have at their disposal a stock of examples illustrating what we believe to be right and wrong, good and bad—examples illustrating what are morally right and wrong can indeed be known and that there is a difference.

What kind of stories, historical events, and famous lives am I talking about? If we want our children to know about honesty, we should teach them about Abe Lincoln walking three miles to return six cents and conversely, about Aesop’s shepherd boy who cried wolf if we want them to know about courage, we should teach them about Joan of Arc, Horatius at the bridge, and Harriet Tubman and the Underground Railroad. If we want them to know about persistence in the face of adversity, they should know about the voyages of Columbus and the character of Washington during the Civil War. And our youngest should be told about the Little Engine That Could. If we want them to know about respect for the law, they should understand why Socrates told Crito: “No, I must submit to the decree of Athens.” If we want our children to respect the rights of others, they should read the Declaration of Independence, the Bill of Rights, the Gettysburg Address, and Martin Luther King, Jr.’ “Letter from Birmingham jail.” From the Bible they should know about Ruth’s loyalty to Naomi, Joseph’s forgiveness of his brothers, Jonathan’s friendship with David, the Good Samaritan’s kindness toward a stranger, and David’s cleverness and courage in facing Goliath.

These are only a few of the hundreds of examples we can call on. And we need not get into issues like nuclear war, abortion, creationism, or euthanasia. This may come as a disappointment to some people, but the fact is that the formation of character in young people is educationally a task different from, and prior to, the discussion of the great, difficult controversies of the day. First things come first. We should teach values the same way we teach other things: one step at a time. We should not use the fact that there are many difficult and controversial moral questions as an argument against basic instruction in the subject.

After all, we do not argue against teaching physics because laser physics is difficult, against teaching American history because there are heated disputes about the Founders’ intent. Every field has its complexities and its controversies. And every field has its basics, its fundamentals. So they are too with forming character and achieving moral literacy. As any parent knows, teaching character is a difficult task. But it is a crucial task, because we want our children to be healthy, happy, and successful but decent, strong, and good. None of this happens automatically; there is no genetic transmission of virtue. It takes the conscious, committed efforts of adults. It takes careful attention.

10. College Pressures

Mainly I try to remind that the road ahead is a long one and that it will have more unexpected turns than they think. There will be plenty of time to change jobs, change careers, change whole attitudes and approaches. They don not want to hear such liberating news. They want a map—right now – that they can follow unswervingly to career security, financial security, Social Security and, presumably, a prepaid grave.

What I wish for all students is some release from the clammy grip of the future. I wish them a chance to savor each segment of their education as an experience in itself and not as a grim preparation for the next step. I wish them the right to experiment, to trip and fall, to learn that defeat is as instructive as victory and is not the end of the world.

My wish, of course, is na?ve. One of the national gods venerated in our media—the million-dollar athlete, the wealthy executive—and glorified in our praise of possessions. In the presence of such a potent state religion, the young are growing up old.

I see four kinds of pressure working on college students today: economic pressure, parental pressure, peer pressure, and self-induced pressure. It is easy to look around for villains—to blame the colleges for charging too much money, the professors for assigning too much work, the parents for pushing their children too far, and the students for driving themselves too hard. But there are no villains: only victims.

“In the late 1960s.” one dean told me. “The typical question that I got from students was ‘Why is there so much suffering in the world’ or ‘how I can make a contribution?’ Today it’s ‘Do you think it would look better for getting into law school if I did a double major in history and political science, or just majored in one of them?’” many other deans confirmed this pattern. One said: “They are trying to find an edge—the intangible something that will look better on paper if two students are about equal.”

Note the emphasis on looking better. The transcript has become a sacred document, the passport to security. How one appears on paper is more important than how one appears in person. A is for Admirable and B is for Borderline, even though, in Yale’s official system of grading, A means “excellent” and B means “very good.” Today, looking very good is no longer good enough, especially for students who hope to go on to law school or medical school. They know that entrance into the better schools will be an entrance into the better law firms and better medical practices where they will make a lot of money. They also know that the odds are harsh. Yale Law School, for instance, matriculates 170students from an applicant pool of 3,700; Harvard enrolls 550 from a pool of 7,000.

It’s all very well for those of us who write letters of recommendation for our students to stress the qualities of humanity that will make them good lawyers or doctors. And it’s nice to think that admission officers are ready reading our letters and looking for the extra dimension of commitment or concern. Still, it would be hard for a student not to visualize these officers shuffling so many transcripts studded with As that they regard a B as positively shameful.

The pressure is almost as heavy on students who just want to graduate and get a job. Long gone are the days of the “gentleman’s C.” when students journeyed through college with a certain relaxation, sampling a wide variety of courses-music, art, philosophy, classics, anthropology, poetry, religion—that would send them out as liberally educated men and women. If I were an employer I would rather employ graduates who have this range and curiosity than those who narrowly pursued safe subjects and high grades. I know countless students whose inquiring minds exhilarate me. I like to hear the play of their ideas. I do not know if they are getting As or Cs, and I do not care. I also like them as people. The country needs them, and they will find satisfying jobs. I tell them to relax. They cannot.

Nor can I blame them. They live in a brutal economy. Tuition, room, and board at most private colleges now come to at least $7,000, not counting books and fees. This might seem to suggest that the colleges are getting rich. But they are equally battered by inflation. Tuition covers only 60 percent of what it costs to educate a student, and ordinarily the remainder comes from what college receives in endowments, grants, and gifts. Now, the remainder keeps being swallowed by the cruel costs—higher every year—of just opening the doors. Heating oil is up. Insurance is up. Postage is up. Health-premium costs are up. Everything is up. Deficits are up. We are witnessing in American the creation of a brotherhood of paupers—colleges, parents, and students, joined by the common bond of debt.

Today it is not unusual for a student, even if he works part time at college and full time during the summer, to accrue $5,000 in loans after four years—loans that he must start to repay within one year after graduation. Exhorted at commencement to go forth into the world, he is already behind as he goes forth. How could he not feel under pressure throughout college to prepare for this day of reckoning? I have used “he,” incidentally, only for brevity. Women at Yale are under no less pressure to justify their expensive education to themselves, their parents, and society. In fact, they are probably under more pressure. For although they leave college superbly equipped to bring fresh leadership to traditionally male jobs, society has not yet caught up with this fact.

Along with economic pressure goes parental pressure. Inevitably, the two are deeply intertwined.

I see many students taking pre-medical courses with joyless tenacity. They go off to their labs as if they were going to the dentist. It saddens me because I know tem in other corners of their life as cheerful people.

“Do you want to medical school?” I asked them.

“I guess so,” they say, without conviction, or “Not really.”

“Then why are you going?”

“Well, my parents want me to be a doctor. They are paying all this money and …”

Poor students, poor parents, they are caught in one of the oldest webs of love and duty and guilt. The parents mean will; they are trying to steer their sons and draughts toward a secure future. But the sons and daughter want to major in history or classics or philosophy—subjects with no “practical” value. Where’s the payoff on the humanities? It’s not easy to persuade such loving parents that the humanities do indeed pay off. The intellectual faculties developed by studying subjects like history and classics—an ability to synthesize and relate, to weigh cause and effect, to see events in perspective—are just the faculties that make creative leaders in business or almost any general field. Still, many fathers would rather put their money on courses that point toward specific profession—courses that are pre-law, pre-medical, pre-business, or, as I sometimes heard it put, “pre-rich.”

But the pressure on students is severe. They are truly torn. One part of them feels obliged to fulfill their parents’ expectations; after all, their parents are older and presumably wiser. Another part tells them that the expectations that are right for their parents are not right for them.

I know a student who wants to be an artist. She is very obviously an artist and will be a good one—she has already had several modest local exhibits. Meanwhile she is growing as a well-round person and taking humanistic subjects that will enrich the inner resources out of which her art will grow. But her father is strongly opposed. He thinks that an artist is a “dumb” thing to be. The student vacillates and tries to please everybody. She keeps up with her art somewhat furtively and takes some of the “dumb” courses her father wants her to take—at least they are dumb courses for her. She is a free spirit on a campus of tense students—no small achievement in it—and she deserves to follow her muse.

Peer pressure and self-induced pressure are also intertwined, and they begin almost at the beginning of freshman year.

“I had a freshman student I’ll call Linda,” one dean told me, “who came in and said she was under terrible pressure because her roommate, Barbara, was much brighter and studied all the time. I could not tell her that Barbara had come in two hours earlier to say the same thing about Linda.”

The story is almost funny—except that it is not. It is symptomatic of all the pressure put together. When every student thinks every other student is working harder and doing better, the only solution is to study harder still. I see students going off to the library every night after dinner and coming back when it closes at midnight. I wish they would sometimes forget about their peers and go to a movie. I hear the clacking of typewriters in the hours before dawn. I see the tension in their eyes when exams are approaching and papers are due: “Will I get everything done?”

Probably they won’t. They will get blocked. They will sleep. They will oversleep. They will bug out.

Part of the problem is that they are expected to do. A professor will assign five page papers. Several students will start writing ten page papers to impress him. Then more students will write ten page papers, and a few will raise the ante to fifteen. Pity the poor student who is still just doing the assignment.

“Once you have twenty or thirty percent of the student population deliberately overexerting,” one dean points out, “It’s bad for everybody. When a teacher gets more and more effort from his class, the student who is doing normal work can be perceived as not doing well. The tactic work, psychologically.”

Why cannot the professor just cut back and not accept longer papers? He can, and he probably will. But by then the term will be half over and the damage done. Grade fever is highly contagious and not easily reversed. Besides, the professor’s main concern is with his course. He knows his students only in relation to the course and does not know that they are also overexerting in their other courses. Nor is it really his business. He did not sign up for dealing with the student as a whole person and with all the emotional baggage the student brought along from home. That’s what deans, masters, chaplains, and psychiatrists are for.

To some extent this is nothing new: a certain number of professors have always been self-contained islands of scholarship and shyness, more comfortable with books than with people. But the new pauperism has widened the gap still further, for professors who actually like to spend time with students do not have as much time to spend. They are also overexerting. If they are young, they are busy trying to publish in order not to perish, hanging by their figure nails onto a shrinking profession.

If they are old and tenured, they are buried under the duties of administering departments—as departmental chairmen or members of committees—that have been thinned out by the budgetary axe.

Ultimately it will be the students’ own business to break the circles in which they are trapped. They are too young to be prisoners of their parents’ dreams and their classmates’ fears. They must be jolted into believing into themselves as unique men and women who have the power to shape their own future.

“Violence is being done to the undergraduate experience,” says Carlos Hortas. “College should be open-ended: at the end it should open many, many roads. Instead, students are choosing their goal in advance, and their choices narrow as they go along. It’s almost as if they think that the country has been codified in the type of jobs that exist-that they’ve got to fit into certain slots. Therefore, fit into the best paying slot.”

“They ought to take chances. Not taking chances will lead to life of colorless mediocrity. They’ll be comfortable. But something in the spirit will be missing.”

I have painted too drab a portrait of today’s students, making them seem a solemn lot. That is only half of their story; if they were so dreary I wouldn’t so thoroughly enjoy their company. The other half is that they are easy to like. They are quick to laugh and to offer friendship. They are not introverts. They are usually kind and are more considerate of one another than any student generation I have known.

Nor are they so obsessed with their studies that they avoid sports and extracurricular activities. On the contrary, they juggle their crowded hours to play on a variety of teams, perform with musical and dramatic groups, and write for campus publications. But this in turn is one more cause of anxiety. There are too many choices. Academically, they have 1,300 courses to select from; outside class they have to decide how much spare time they can spare and how to spend it.

This means that they engage in fewer extracurricular pursuits than their predecessors did. If they want to row on the crew and play in the symphony they will eliminate one; in the ‘60s they would have done both. They also tend to choose activities that are self-limiting. Drama, for instance, is flourishing in all twelve of Yale’s residential colleges, as it never has before. Students hurl themselves into these productions—as actors, directors, carpenters, and technicians—with a dedication to create the best possible play, knowing that the day will come when the run will end and they can get back to their studies.

They also cannot afford to be the willing slave of organizations like the Yale Daily News. Last spring at the one-hundredth anniversary banquet of that paper—who’s past chairmen include such once and future kings as Potter Stewart, Kingman Brewster, and William F. Buckley, Jr.—much was made of the fact that the editorial staff used to be small and totally committed and that “newsies” routinely worked fifty hours a week. In effect they belonged to a club; Newsies is how they defined themselves at Yale. Today’s students will one or two articles a week, when he can, and he defines himself as a student. I’ve never heard the word Newsie except at the banquet.

If I have described the modern undergraduate primarily as a driven creature who is largely ignoring the blithe spirit inside who keeps trying to come out and play, it’s because that’s where the crunch is, not only at Yale but throughout American education. It’s why I think we should all be worried about the values that are nurturing a generation so fearful of risk and so goal-obsessed at such an early age.

I tell students that there is no one “right” way to get ahead—that each of them is a different person, starting from a different point and bound for a different destination. I tell neither them that change is a tonic and that all the slots are not codified nor the frontiers closed. One of my ways of telling them is to invite men and women who have achieved success outside the academic world to come and talk informally with my students during the year. They are heads of companies or ad agencies, editors of magazines, politicians, public officials, television magnates, labor leaders, business executives, Broadway products, artists, writers, economists, photographers, scientists, historians—a mixed bag of achievers.

I asked them to say a few words about how they got started. The students assume that they started in their present profession and knew all along that it was what they wanted to do. Luckily for me, most of them got into their field by a circuitous route, to their surprise, after many detours. The students are startled. They can hardly conceive of a career that was not pre-planned. They can hardly imagine allowing the hand of God or chance to nudge them down some unforeseen trail.

11. To Err Is Wrong

In the summer of 1979, Boston Red Sox first baseman Carl Yastrzemski became the fifteenth player in baseball history to reach the three thousand hit plateaus. This event drew a lot of media attention, and for about a week prior to the attainment of this goal, hundreds of reports covered Yaz’s every more. Finally, one reporter asked, “Hey Yaz, aren’t you afraid all of this attention will go to your head?” Yastrzemski replied, “I look at this way: in my career I’ve been up to bat over ten thousand times. That means I’ve been unsuccessful at the plate over seven thousand times. That fact alone keeps me from getting a swollen head.”?

Most people consider success and failure as opposites, but they are actually both products of the same process. As Yaz suggest, an activity that produces a hit may also produce a miss. It is the same with creative thinking; the same energy that generates good creative ideas also produces errors.

Many people, however, are not comfortable with errors. Our educational system, based on “the right answer” belief, cultivates our thinking in another, more conservative way. From an early age, we are taught that right answers are good and incorrect answers are bad. This value is deeply embedded in the incentive system used in most schools:

Right over 90% of the time = “A”

Right over 80% of the time = “B~”

Right over 70% of the time = “C~” Right over 60% of the time = “D~” Less than 60% correct, you fail.

From this we learn to be right as often as possible and to keep our mistakes to a minimum. We learn, in other words, that “to err is wrong.

Playing It Safe

With this kind of attitude, you aren’t going to be taking too many chances. If you learn that failing even a litter penalizes you (e.g., being wrong only 15% of the time garners you only a “B” performance), you learn not to make mistakes. And more important, you learn not to put yourself to situation where you might fall. This leads to conservative thought pattern designed to avoid the stigma our society puts on “failure”.

I have a friend who recently graduated from college with a Master’s degree in Journalism. For the last six month, she has been trying to find a job, but to no avail. I talked with her about situation, and realized that her problem is that she doesn’t know how to fail. She went through eighteen years of schooling to try any approaches where she might fail. She has been conditioned to believe that failure is bad in and of itself, rather than a potential stepping-stone to new ideas.

Look around. How many middle managers, housewives, administrators, teachers, and other people do you see who are to try anything new because of this failure? Most of us have learned not to make mistakes in public. As a result, we remove ourselves from many learning experience except for those occurring in the most private of circumstances.

Different Logic

From a practical point of view, “to err is wrong” makes sense. Our survival in the everyday world requires us to perform thousand of small tasks without failure. Think about it: you wouldn’t last very long if you were to step out in front of traffic or stick your hand a pot of boiling water. In addition, engineers whose bridges collapse, stock brokers who lose money for their clients, and copywriters whose ad campaigns decrease sales won’t keep their jobs very long.

Nevertheless, too great an adherence to the belief “to err is wrong” can greatly undermine your attempts to generate new ideas. If you are more concerned with producing right answers than generating original ideas, you’ll probably make uncritical use of the rules, formulae, and procedures used to obtain these right answers. By doing this, you’ll by-pass the germinal phase of the creative process, and thus spend litter time testing assumptions, challenging the rules, asking what-if questions, or just playing around with the problem. All of these techniques will produce some incorrect answers, but in the germinal phase errors are viewed as a necessary by-product of creative thinking. As Yaz would put it, “if you want the hits, be prepared for the misses.” That’s the way the game of life goes.

Errors as Stepping Stones

Whenever an error pops up, the usual response is “Jeez, another screw up, what went wrong this time?” the creative thinker, on the other hand, will realize the potential value of errors, and perhaps say something like, “Would you look at that! Where can it lead our thinking?” and then he or she will go on to use the error as a stepping stone to a new idea. As a matter of fact, the whole history of discovery is filed with people who used erroneous assumptions and failed ideas as stepping-stones to new ideas. Columbus thought he was finding a shorter route to India. Johannes Kepler stumbled on to the idea of interplanetary gravity because of assumptions that were right for the wrong reasons. And, Thomas Edison knew 1800 ways not to build a light bulb.

The following story about the automotive genius Charles Kettering exemplifies the spirit of working through erroneous assumptions to good ideas. In 1912, when the automobile industry was just beginning to grow, Kettering was interested in improving gasoline engine efficiency. The problem he faced was“knockthe phenomenon in which gasoline takes too long to burn in the cylinder-thereby reducing efficiency.

Kettering began searching for ways to eliminate the “knock.” He thought to him, “How can I get the gasoline to combust in the cylinder at an earlier time?” the key concept here is “early”. Searching for analogous situations, he looked around for models of “things that happen early.” He thought of historical models, physical models, and biological models. Finally, he remembered a particular plant, the trailing arbutus, which “happens early,” i.e., it blooms in the snow (“earlier” than other plants). One of this plant’s chief characteristics is its’ red leaves, which help the plant retain light at certain wavelengths. Kettering figured that it must be the red color, which made the trailing arbutus bloom earlier.

Now came the critical step in Kettering’s chain of thought. He asked himself, “How can I make the gasoline red?” perhaps I’ll put red dye in the gasoline—maybe that’ll make it combust earlier.” He looked around his workshop, and found that he didn’t have any red dye. But he did happen to have some iodine—perhaps that would do. He added the iodine to the gasoline and, lo and behold, the engine didn’t “knock”.

篇11:高中英语作文写作技巧

全文共 1148 字

+ 加入清单

1、审题:审题是做到切题的第一步。所谓审题就是要看清题意,确定文章的中心思想、主题,并围绕中心思想组织材料。

2、进行构思,列出简单的提纲,打造文章之骨架:审好题、立好意后,就要写提纲,打造文章的骨架。文章布局要做好几件事:安排好层次段落,铺设好过渡,处理好开头和结尾。

3、扩展成文:根据字数多少扩展成篇。扩展的内容一定要紧扣主题,千万不要写那些与主题不相关的内容。展开的方式包括:顺序法、举例法、比较法、对比法、说明法、因果法、推导法、归纳法和下定义等。可以根据需要任选一种或几种方式。

在这一步骤中还需注意三方面问题:

1、确保提纲中段落结构的思路与各段主题句的一致性。只有这样,才能保证所写段落不偏题、不跑题。

2、要综合考虑各个段落的内容安排,避免段落内容的交叉。

3、用好连接词,注意段落间、句子间的连贯性。要做到所写文章层次分明,思路清晰,文字连贯,就需要在句与句之间、段与段之间架起一座座桥梁,而连接词起的正是桥梁作用。

在扩展的过程中也有些窍门,以下几点可供参考:

1、在整篇文章中,避免只是用一两个句式或重复用同一词语。英语中存在着极为丰富的同义词,准确地使用同义词可以给读者清新的感觉。同时要灵活运用各种句式,如倒装句、强调句、省略句、主从复合句、对比句、分词短语、介词短语等,从而增加文章的可读性。

2、使用不同长度的句子。如果一个意思用一句话写不清楚的话,通过分句和合句或用两句、三句来表达,增强句子的连贯性和表现力。

3、改变句子的开头方式,不要总是以主、谓、宾、状的次序。可以把状语至于句首,或用分词等。

4、学会使用过渡词。递进furthermore,moreover,besides,in addition,then,etc ;转折however,but,nevertheless,afterwards,etc ;总结finally,at last,in brief,to conclude,etc ;强调really,indeed,certainly,surely,above a11,etc ;对比in the same way,just as,on the other hand,etc。

5、确定文章用第几人称写,基本时态是什么。使用人称时人物不能张冠李戴或指代不明。时态要尽量保持一致。

检查修改:要检查复核,不要写完了事。

要留时间通读全文,修改可能出现的错误。检查上下文是否连贯,句子衔接是否自然流畅。检验的标准主要是句子是否通畅,该用连词的地方用了没有,所用的连词是否合适,是否有语法错误,主谓是否一致,动词的时态、语态、语气的使用是否正确,词组的搭配是否合乎习惯,是否有大小写、拼写、标点错误等,还有就是注意卷面整洁。

可归纳为:中心突出,主题明确;层次清楚,条理清晰;表达

篇12:高考写作基础指导:写作基础训练

全文共 2716 字

+ 加入清单

(一)素质训练,也叫基础训练

快速作文训练的中心是“快”,这种训练是在学生具有一定的写作基础和掌握了一定的写作技巧的基础上求“快”、求“好”的训练,如果写作素质太差,就没法进行快速训练。达到下列目的:

1、提高写作兴趣,培养写作情感

心理学告诉我们,兴趣是获得知识、形成技能技巧、开发智力的动力。因此,任何形式的教学都必须严格遵循兴趣性原则。只有当学生对写作文产生了浓厚的兴趣时,快速作司文训练才会有成效。心理学同时告诉我们,兴趣与当前的需要有关,因此提高学生写作兴趣的办法虽然是多种多样的,但是其中重要的一条便是向学生进行快速写作目的教育,如果学生认识了快速作文的必要性,他就会对作文产生浓厚的兴习趣。另外,出作文题要紧跟形势,与时代同步,要切合学生的生活实际,命题要尽量新,能激发学生的写作兴趣,使学学生有话可写。

2.积累写作材料

这一点要贯穿到整个快速作文训练的始终,但在基础训练阶段要重点抓。“巧妇难为无米之炊”,没有写作材料,再好的写作高手也难以完篇。因此,一定要求学生分专题记住;一些典型材料,譬如有关爱国主义,党的领导,尊重知识,改革开放,廉政建设,学雷锋等等,每个方面都要记住一两个典型材料。材料的积累,教师只能做指导,要让学生自己去找,不要全班统一,全班统一了,写作的论据就会雷同。所积累的材料要注意三点:一要典型,二要准确,三要记牢。要强调用脑记,要背,不能光靠笔记本。材料越充足,写作速度就越快。

3.丰富写作语言

如果学生语言贫乏,写作时搜索枯肠也找不到一句恰当的话来表达自己的意思,往往写了涂,涂了又写,就无法提高写作速度。如果词汇不丰富,写到中途某个字不会写或者没有一个恰当的词来表达自己的意思,这样写作就会“卡壳”,当然也就达不到快速作文的目的。因此,写作语言的训练和词汇的积累是十分重要的。丰富写作语言的方法之一是,背书和加强课外阅读,书读得越多,背得越熟,作文就会越通顺,语言就会有文采,不会老说口水话。再就是指导学生学习群众生动活泼的语言,克服学生腔。另外,要指导学生积累词汇,词汇丰富,写起作文来就能得心应手,速度也就快了。

4.训练书写能力

书写能力的高低直接影响写作速度。因此进行快速作文教学,必须强化书写能力训练。作文不是书法竞赛,并不要求铁画银钩,但也不能龙飞凤舞,我们要求学生养成良好的书写习惯,把字写得清楚、规范、工整。具体做法主要是临摩字帖,每个学生应备有两本字帖,一本正楷,一本行书,先练正楷,后学行书,逐日临摩,坚持不懈,定能收到良好的效果。总之,通过素质训练,要使学生想写作文,爱写作文,并且有东西可写,话写得通顺。

(二)思维训练

快速作文的关键是快速思维训练。思维是人脑对客观事物本质特征和规律性的认识。快速思维则要求学生在分析、综合,比较、抽象、概括和具体化的整个思维过程中,思维活动应具有广泛性、独立性、敏捷性和创造性。一见到作文题能立即做出反应,要求审题、立意、谋篇、布局的全过程不超过五分钟。抓好快速作文思维训练主要从三个方面入手:

1、树立正确的世界观

思维是人脑对客观事物的概括的、间接的反映。要正确反映客观世界,首先必须具有正确的世界观。因此,要和政治课相配合,组织学生学习马列主义、毛泽东思想,掌握辩证唯物主义和历史唯物主义的基本原理,要了解当前党的各项方针政策。正确的政治观点、思维观点是快速思维的定向器和指示灯。因此,必须教育学生关心国家大事,树立远大理想,加强政治修养,提高政治觉悟。

2.加强抽象思维训练

议论文的构思过程,实际上就是抽象思维的过程,因此,必须教给学生分析、概括、综合、判断等基本逻辑方法和纵向思维、逆向思维、反向思维、辐射思维等思维方法。训练抽象思维的方法是多种多样的,我认为最有效的方法是组织学生进行讨论和辩论。课堂讨论应允许学生和老师唱“对台戏”,要鼓励学生在课外争论问题,学生争得面红耳赤的时侯,也就是思维最活跃、最敏捷的时候。

3.进行形象思维训练

写记叙文离不开想象、联想、幻想等形象思维活动。要求学生在很短的时间内写好一篇记叙文,没有扎实的形象思维训练是不行的。训练形象思维的方法之一是有目的地指导学生观察事物的基本形象,牢记心头,并组织学生参观、访问。要重视写回忆录,回忆录的写作过程实际就是训练形象思维的过程。

总之,通过这一步训练,要达到开拓学生思维的目的,使学生变得思维敏捷,对作文题反应迅速,想象力丰富,要改变学生中普遍存在的思维迟钝、思想涣散的不良习惯。

(三)写作速度训练

第一步素质训练是基础,第二步思维训练是关键,这第三步的速度训练则是目的。整个快速作文训练的最终目的就是要求学生能够快速写作。如果第一、二步训练都抓得扎实,速度训练就会见效。基本做法是严格要求,限时作文。为了提高速度,每次作文都只能安排一个课时,一定要严格要求,当堂完卷。要求学生做到快速审题,快速立意,快速布局谋篇,快速写作,快速修改。总之,一切都要立足于一个“快"字。40分钟的时间分配大致是这样的:审题、立意(确定中心思想)和谋篇布局(编写作提纲)不超过5分钟,写作30分钟,修改5分钟。通过训练,这个要求一般学生都能做到。另外,在班内开展快速作文竞赛也是个提高写作速度的好办法,一搞竞赛,学生的兴趣就来了。刚开始进行速度训练时,有些学生是跟不上的,40分钟怎么也写不完。怎么办呢?二是多加鼓励,切忌指责;二是暂时迁就,但绝不放松要求。时间一到,一律收卷,没写完也要收卷。这样,学生下次写作文就有一种紧迫感和时间观念。有些学生,一讲快速作文,字就乱涂乱画。碰到这样的学生怎么办呢?不能操之过急,分两步走,先要求写完800字,再要求字迹清楚。作文不是书法竞赛,不要求铁画银钩,只要字体工整,文字规范就行。个别字迹潦草的学生,要加强教育和书写指导。

(四)技巧训练

第三步训练要求解决写作速度问题,这一步训练便是"快”中求巧,同时,也是对速度训练成果的巩固和提高。基本方法是专题指导,讲练结合。如果前三步抓得扎实,这一步训练往往水到渠成。通过这一阶段的训练,不但要使学生熟练地掌握各种文体的写法和技巧,更重要的是要掌握快速写作的技巧。比如快速审题、快速立意、快速谋篇布局、快速写作、快速修改等技巧,都要分专题进行归纳,总结和指导,还要能快速应付写作中随时出现的“卡壳”现象,诸如走题、空洞、松散、结构混乱、词不达意、字不会写等毛病的纠正和意外情况的应付办法。至于这些快速写作的具体技巧和方法,我在下面将作专门介绍,在这里就不一一赘述。

(五)综合训练

通过以上四步训练,学生基本掌握了快速写作的方式与技巧,具备了快速写作的基础。为了全面提高快速作文的能力,必须进行综合训练。

篇13:网络评论写作基础知识

全文共 1297 字

+ 加入清单

网络评论是就某个新闻事实或新闻事件借助网络媒体所发表的评论。小编收集了网络评论写作基础知识,欢迎阅读。

一、网络评论的概念

网络评论是就某个新闻事实或新闻事件借助网络媒体所发表的评论。主要区别于电视、报刊、广播等传统媒体上刊载的评论。网络评论与传统媒体的载体不同,严格意义上,网络转载的其他媒体的评论,不属于网络评论,网络评论是借助网络媒体所发表的原创评论。

二、网络评论的特点

据有关数据显示,中国网民数量已达5.64亿,其中,10—19岁网民是最大的用户群体,拥有高中学历者占到39.4% ,主要构成群体是青年学生和城市白领。由于网络载体的原因,网络评论与报纸、电视等评论存在不少差异,其特点是:反应迅速、文章短小、观点鲜明、论证新颖、语言鲜活。

1、反应迅速。新闻事件发生后,纸媒、电视等媒体要发布评论,有时要受制于出版和播出时间的限制,而网评不受这个限制。比如人民网人民网评在发布莫言获得诺奖的评论就发表在2012年11月11日当天,而人民日报《让文学回归我们的内心》则在第二天了,人民日报海外版《从莫言获奖说起》、《莫言获奖空前不绝后》则在2012年11月13日。

2、文章短小。纸媒评论一般字数在1000——1200字左右,人民日报的“人民论坛”字数在1200字左右;而网络评论字数一般在1000字以内,人民网的“人民网评”现在一般在1000字左右;新华网的“新华网评”则在800字左右的较多。

3、 观点鲜明。网评的观点受制于网络媒体的特点和网络受众的特点,它的观点通常都是开门见山,直抒胸臆。不像纸媒评论以及杂文那样,需要铺垫、绕弯,而是直接提出自己的观点,紧接着就论述。但是网络评论的标题制作一般较长,基本上是把新闻事件和观点同时表达出来。

4、论证新颖。网络是一个新媒体,网络评论的作者新人也较多,许多人没有传统媒体的条条框框,与我们生活着的现实世界联系紧密,从论证技巧到语言文字都有着新鲜的痕迹。王石川的《致考生,努力了你就无悔青春》这篇评论,就借用了年轻人喜欢的歌曲《致青春》,拉近了评论与年轻读者的距离。“青春是一场渐行渐远的诗歌,无论悲欢,都是记忆;无论好坏,都不是终点。走过这段路,轻装上阵,迎接下一个渡口。”他的这种观点在《致青春》的歌曲氛围中,是很容易被考生们接受的。

5、语言鲜活。网络评论在很多时候都使用了网络语言。除了文中使用以外,有许多网评标题也都是由鲜活的语言组织起来的:《“电荒”源于利润“掐架”》、 《新车改:没有执行力,“神马”仍将都是“浮云》 、《 “菜鸟”能给马云下多大的蛋》.......

网络语言是伴随着网络的发展而新兴的一种有别于传统平面媒介的语言形式。它以简洁生动的形式,一诞生就得到了广大网友的偏爱,发展神速。比如“杯具”、“神马都是浮云”、“ 斑竹 ”等等。鲜活的网络语言甚至影响了正规的纸媒。2010年11月10日《人民日报》头版头条刊登《江苏给力“文化强省”》一文,就用了网络词汇“给力”,中国组织人事报评论:《正确对待群众的“拍砖”》就用了网络语言“拍砖”。

所以,网络评论写作,要使用网络语言,这样,写出的评论才是网络评论而不是别的什么评论。

篇14:大学基础英语写作诀窍

全文共 3888 字

+ 加入清单

写作英语的第二大重头戏,仅次于阅读。但是这部分又经常被考生忽略,考前不动手,依赖临考模板,很难写出高分作文。下面是小编为大家整理的大学基础英语写作诀窍,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。

- 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。

- 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。

- 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。

- 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?

- 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。

- 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、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。

- 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。

- 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。

5、结合使用长、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。

-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、使用短语代替单词

使用短语代替单词。

- 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。

- He doesnt like music.→ He doesnt care much for music.

他不大喜欢音乐。

- 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、套用某些固定表达

套用某些固定表达

- 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。

- 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。

- 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、使用地道英语

使用地道英语

- 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。

-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“高级”结构

综合使用“高级”结构

- 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。

- 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、引用名言警句点缀

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”。

- 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.- 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.- 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.”

篇16:2024高考英语作文写作基本原则

全文共 4219 字

+ 加入清单

一、 主题句原则

国有其君,家有其主,文章也要有其主。否则会给人造成“群龙无首”之感!相信各位读过一些破烂文学,故意把主体隐藏在文章之内,结果造成我们稀里糊涂!不知所云!所以奉劝各位一定要写一个主题句,放在文章的开头(保险型)或者结尾,让读者一目了然,必会平安无事!

特别提示:隐藏主体句可是要冒险的!

To begin with, you must work hard at your lessons and be fully prepared before the exam(主题句).

Without sufficient preparation, you can hardly expect to answer all the questions correctly.

二、 长短句原则

工作还得一张一驰呢,老让读者读长句,累死人!写一个短小精辟的句子,相反,却可以起到画龙点睛的作用。而且如果我们把短句放在段首或者段末,也可以揭示主题:

As a creature, I eat; as a man, I read. Although one action is to meet the primary need of my body and the other is to satisfy the intellectual need of mind, they are in a way quite similar.

如此可见,长短句结合,抑扬顿挫,岂不爽哉?牢记!

强烈建议:在文章第一段(开头)用一长一短,且先长后短;在文章主体部分,要先用一个短句解释主要意思,然后在阐述几个要点的时候采用先短后长的句群形式,定会让主体部分妙笔生辉!文章结尾一般用一长一短就可以了。

三、 一二三原则

领导讲话总是第一部分、第一点、第二点、第三点、第二部分、第一点…如此罗嗦。可毕竟还是条理清楚。考官们看文章也必然要通过这些关键性的“标签”来判定你的文章是否结构清楚,条理自然。破解方法很简单,只要把下面任何一组的词汇加入到你的几个要点前就清楚了。

1)first, second, third, last(不推荐,原因:俗)

2)firstly, secondly, thirdly, finally(不推荐,原因:俗)

3)the first, the second, the third, the last(不推荐,原因:俗)

4)in the first place, in the second place, in the third place, lastly(不推荐,原因:俗)

5)to begin with, then, furthermore, finally(强烈推荐)

6)to start with, next, in addition, finally(强烈推荐)

7)first and foremost, besides, last but not least(强烈推荐)

8)most important of all, moreover, finally

9)on the one hand, on the other hand(适用于两点的情况)

10)for one thing, for another thing(适用于两点的情况)

建议:不仅仅在写作中注意,平时说话的时候也应该条理清楚!

四、 短语优先原则

写作时,尤其是在考试时,如果使用短语,有两个好处:其一、用短语会使文章增加亮点,如果老师们看到你的文章太简单,看不到一个自己不认识的短语,必然会看你低一等。相反,如果发现亮点—精彩的短语,那么你的文章定会得高分了。其二、关键时刻思维短路,只有凑字数,怎么办?用短语是一个办法!比如:

I cannot bear it.

可以用短语表达:I cannot put up with it.

I want it.

可以用短语表达:I am looking forward to it.

这样字数明显增加,表达也更准确。

五、 多实少虚原则

原因很简单,写文章还是应该写一些实际的东西,不要空话连篇。这就要求一定要多用实词,少用虚词。我这里所说的虚词就是指那些比较大的词。比如我们说一个很好的时候,不应该之说nice这样空洞的词,应该使用一些诸如generous, humorous, interesting, smart, gentle, warm-hearted, hospital 之类的形象词。再比如:

走出房间,general的词是:walk out of the room

但是小偷走出房间应该说:slip out of the room

小姐走出房间应该说:sail out of the room

小孩走出房间应该说:dance out of the room

老人走出房间应该说:stagger out of the room

所以多用实词,少用虚词,文章将会大放异彩!

六、 多变句式原则

1)加法(串联)

都希望写下很长的句子,像个老外似的,可就是怕写错,怎么办,最保险的写长句的方法就是这些,可以在任何句子之间加and, 但最好是前后的句子又先后关系或者并列关系。

比如说: I enjor music and he is fond of playing guitar. 如果是二者并列的,我们可以用一个超级句式:Not only the fur coat is soft, but it is also warm. 其它的短语可以用:besides, furthermore, likewise, moreover

2)转折(拐弯抹角)

批评某人缺点的时候,我们总习惯先拐弯抹角说说他的优点,然后转入正题,再说缺点,这种方式虽然阴险了点,可毕竟还比较容易让人接受。所以呢,我们说话的时候,只要在要点之前先来点废话,注意二者之间用个专这次就够了。

The car was quite old, yet it was in excellent condition.

The coat was thin, but it was warm.

更多的短语:despite that, still, however, nevertheless, in spite of, despite, not with standing

3)因果(so, so, so)

昨天在街上我看到了一个女孩,然后我主动搭讪,然后我们去咖啡厅,然后我们认识了,然后我们成为了朋友…可见,讲故事的时候我们总要追求先后顺序,先什么,后什么,所以然后这个词就变得很常见了。其实这个词表示的是先后或因果关系!

The snow began to fall, so we went home.

更多短语:then, therefore, consequently, accordingly, hence, as a result, for this reason, so that

4)失衡句(头重脚轻,或者头轻脚重)

有些人脑袋大,身体小,或者有些人脑袋小,身体大,虽然我们不希望长成这个样子,可如果真的是这样了,也就必然会吸引别人的注意力。文章中如果出现这样的句子,就更会让考官看到你的句子与众不同。其实就是主语从句,表语从句,宾语从句的变形。

举例:This is what I can do.

Whether he can go with us or not is not sure.

同样主语、宾语、表语可以改成如下的复杂成分:

When to go, Why he goes away…

5)附加(多此一举)

如果有了老婆,总会遇到这样的情况,当你再讲某个人的时候,她会插一句说,我昨天见过他;或者说,就是某某某,如果把老婆的话插入到我们的话里面,那就是定语从句和同位语从句或者是插入语。

The man whom you met yesterday is a friend of mine.

I don’t enjoy that book you are reading.

Mr liu, our oral English teacher, is easy-going.

其实很简单,同位语--要解释的东西删除后不影响整个句子的构成;定语从句—借用之前的关键词并且用其重新组成一个句子插入其中,但是whom or that 关键词必须要紧跟在先行词之前。

6)排比(排山倒海句)

文学作品中最吸引人的地方莫过于此,如果非要让你的文章更加精彩的话,那么我希望你引用一个个的排比句,一个个得对偶句,一个个的不定式,一个个地词,一个个的短语,如此表达将会使文章有排山倒海之势!

Whether your tastes are modern or traditional, sophisticated or simple, there is plenty in London for you.

Nowadays, energy can be obtained through various sources such as oil, coal, natural gas, solar heat, the wind and ocean tides.

We have got to study hard, to enlarge our scope of knowledge, to realize our potentials and to pay for our life. (气势恢宏)

要想写出如此气势恢宏的句子非用排比不可!

七、 挑战极限原则

既然是挑战极限,必然是比较难的,但是并非不可攀!

原理:在学生的文章中,很少发现诸如独立主格的句子,其实也很简单,只要花上5分钟的时间看看就可以领会,它就是分词的一种特殊形式,分词要求主语一致,而独立主格则不然。比如:

The weather being fine, a large number of people went to climb the Western Hills.

Africa is the second largest continent, its size being about three times that of China.

如果您可一些出这样的句子,不得高分才怪!

篇17: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.”

英语作文虽然不像语文作文在考试

高三英语作文写作技巧:练习

“没有规矩,不成方圆,英语作文写作技巧。”对于一般英语学习者而言,写出优秀的文章有赖于后天习得,但并不意味着机械背诵、生吞活剥,或者照搬照抄、人云亦云。所谓研习,需要有独立思考和个人的判断,本着“他山之石,可以攻玉”的精神,汲取文章的精华部分加以研究。研习主要侧重两个方面,包括文章章法和语言表达。文章章法指文章的行文思路、布局谋篇、结构安排、逻辑顺序。许多学习者面对一个话题,可能存在两种不同的困惑,一是下笔千言,但离题万里;二是思绪万千,却无从落笔。导致两种困惑的根源皆在于欠缺思考问题、组织思路的恰当方式,以至于文章不得要领、章法紊乱。这就要求我们从全篇脉络角度多研习范文,之后领悟如何以演绎法行文、怎样用归纳法谋篇以及如何围绕特定话题拓展思路等等。此外,研习还要侧重于语言表达,包括遣词造句和句子、段落之间的各种衔接手段,以期在自己日后的写作中派上用场,因为英文写作皆通一理。只有善于借鉴,勤加研究,才会借他人的优势和长处,提高自己的写作水平。

高三英语作文写作技巧:背诵

背诵是提高写作的又一有效途径。要学好写作文,首先要处理好语言输入与输出之间的关系。前者是后者的前提条件。如果头脑空空如也,就根本谈不上写出像模像样的文章。只有读过大量东西,并且有意识地将其中精彩部分储存于记忆之中(commit the highlights to memory),才能保证下笔流畅、文通字顺。因此,背诵对于写作极为重要。但背诵不是机械记忆,而是有选择性的背诵,是有意义的记忆。因为机械背诵的结果要么是记忆很快就荡然无存、了无痕迹,要么是无法活学活用、付诸实践。背诵包括五个方面:重点词汇、常用套语、精彩句子、优秀段落、经典篇章。

高三英语作文写作技巧:重点词汇

美妙的用词及搭配皆在此列,像fall victim(受害),stand a fair chance(大有希望)这种地道的动宾搭配要勤加记忆。为了积累写作词汇,应将文中同属一个话题的用词汇总归纳,组成主题词族(topic family)。归类记忆可以使自己日后即写即用,得心应手。下文是一篇阐释爱心的优秀文章,多处用词精巧,现将文中关于爱心这一主题的词汇总结如下:

emotional strength 情感的力量

the noblest of human emotions人类最高尚的情感

no thought of gain不计得失

the lamp of love爱心之灯

help the victims of natural disasters支援自然灾害受害者

donate whatever they can倾囊相助

help their needy fellow citizens 帮助有需要的同胞

be ready to give a helping hand 随时准备伸出援手

—When we use the word "love", we do not simply mean an attraction to a person of the opposite sex, which is a very narrow definition of the word。 Love is emotional strength, which can support us no matter how dark the world around us becomes。 In fact, throughout history people of many different cultures have regarded love as the noblest of human emotions。

As an example of the power of love, we should remember how the Chinese people of all nationalities respond to the call to help the victims of natural disasters every year。 Although their incomes are still low by international standards, people all over the country do not hesitate to donate whatever they can — be it money or goods — to help their needy fellow citizens。 Moreover, they do this with no thought of gain for themselves。

In my opinion, the best way to show love is to help people who are more unfortunate than we are。 We should always be ready to give a helping hand to those who are in trouble, no matter whether they are family members or complete strangers。 In this way, we can help to make the world a better place, for the darker the shadows of sorrow become, the more brightly the lamp of love shines。

当我们用“爱”这个词时,我们不仅仅指异性对一个人的吸引,这只是对这个词非常狭隘的解释,小学生作文《英语作文写作技巧》。爱心是一种情感的力量,不论我们周围的世界多么黑暗,爱心都能支撑我们。事实上,纵观历史,不同文化背景的人都把爱看成是人类最高尚的情感。

说到爱心的力量,我们马上就会想起每年中国各族人民是如何响应号召支援自然灾害受害者的。尽管按照国际标准他们的收入还处于低水平,全国人民毫不犹豫地倾囊相助——不管是钱还是物——帮助那些有需要的同胞。而且,他们这么做并不考虑自己的得失。

我认为,表达爱心的最好方式是帮助比我们更加不幸的人。我们应该随时准备向有困难的人伸出援助之手,无论他们是家庭成员还是素昧平生。这样,我们就能够助一臂之力把世界变成一个更美好的地方,因为,悲伤的阴影越黑暗,爱心之灯的光芒就越闪亮。

篇19:写作基础:作文语言如何出彩

全文共 1632 字

+ 加入清单

语言是思想的载体,是感情的凭借,一切文章都要靠语言来实现,那么作文语言如何出彩呢?一起来学习下吧:

一.锤炼动词、形容词

要使作文语言新颖脱俗,鲜明生动,必须注重锤炼字词,尤其要重视对动词和形容词的锤炼。如:“低垂的天幕压着我的胸口,灰暗和沮丧撕裂着我的心。”“我们伟大组多的形象第一次在我心灵的胶片上感光。”前句中“撕裂”一词毕现了苦闷无边,失落伤痛,仿佛心叶被一点点地撕裂开,流淌着殷红的血的情景。句子那灵动的文笔,神奇的表达效果,均仰仗于动词的灵巧运用,使人倍感新颖别致。形容词妙用也别具情态。如:“爷爷站成一轮弯弯的月亮,目送着孙子远去。”句中动词和形容词的精心锤炼,使“爷爷”的形象如一尊雕塑凸现于眼前。

二.巧用修辞手法

巧妙运用修辞手法,可化抽象为具体,化腐朽为神奇,变枯燥为生机。如比喻的巧妙运用:“如血的残阳像一位戴着红斗笠的侠客。”“晚霞飘落在天边,宛如一匹红丝绸,召唤着从远古走来的吹箫人。”这是描写“飞天”壁画而运用的绝妙比喻。再如引用的巧妙:“初三的寒假,我迷上了网页设计,整宿整宿地不睡觉,可谓走火入魔。‘入魔’过了火,母亲免不了大发雷霆,喝令‘查封’电脑。”句中引用武术术语和现代新语词,使得文句既活泼俏皮,又富于自我解嘲的情味。还有引用名人名言也能使文句生动新奇:“感受成长的烦恼,你或许会崇拜尼采,只因他说过‘没有痛苦,只有卑微的幸福’。”

三.独创妙语佳句

这是根据文章表达需要,独辟蹊径创新语句的一种方法。比如:“一支钢笔用得像博物馆的‘三八大盖枪’,可还不能光荣‘下岗’。”“‘高三’两字很沉,我觉得分量超过了‘高山’。”“说实在的,班主任可真是黑,相信漂白几次后也不会输给包公的。班主任的海拔不高,头顶到地面距离为1.6452926m。”上述一系列创新出来的佳此妙句,读后给人以极美的艺术享受。

四.力求含蓄风趣

含蓄的语言耐人寻味,含英咀嚼,如嚼橄榄。语言风趣,能使文章活泼,不觉呆板。比如:“每日,总是‘夕阳红’们迎来一轮红朝日,小公园里早一片‘刀光剑影’了。”其中,不说老年人而说“夕阳红”,不明说耍刀舞剑晨练之情景,却用“刀光剑影”来描摹,既含蓄又新颖,且不乏韵味。又如:“为什么牛儿满天飞,因为我班的男生正在地上吹。”这善意、风趣的语言写绝了男生的“超级特长”——吹牛,也表现出集体生活的情趣。

五.注重新奇组合

组装是一种创新过程,其方式有多种:

1、张冠李戴。如:“他一而再,再而三地‘犯规’,最后荣幸地受到校长的‘亲切接见’。这将本不应该用于批评学生的词语“犯规”、“亲切接见”用在句中,既诙谐又风趣。

2、褒词贬用。如:“今日美国已是螃蟹十足了。今日到中东上思想政治课,明日到东亚开人权学习班,刚在南斯拉夫踢完了热身赛,又跑到印度半岛当裁判。”在这段话里,美国十足的霸气,一个标准的国际警察的可恶形象,通过褒词贬用的的方式充分地表现了出来。

3、巧借熟语。如:“美国之所以多年来与台湾保持着暧昧关系,全然是为了自己的被窝温暖。换句话说,如果台湾这只热水袋不能保障美国伸在亚太地区的脚趾暖和,甚至还倒灌冷风,他立马就会把台湾蹬出被窝去。”“被窝”“热水袋”“灌冷风”等日常生活用语,用在分析美国与台湾的关系上,使人顿觉耳目一新。

4、错位搭配。例如:“一道道幽怨的眼神凝成线,组成网,网住了班主任的脚步。”“亲切而温暖的歌词像家乡的柑橘缀满枝头和我的双肩。”句中的“眼神”可以“凝成线,组成网”,还能“网住班主任的脚步”,“歌词”“缀满枝头和我的双肩”,这些临时的错位搭配,使句子情韵深醇,清新至极。

5、旧词新用。如:“小学时,桌上的‘三八线’总是一厘米、一毫米量得丝毫不差,常常由于不慎侵入了同桌的‘领土’,爆发‘自卫反击战’……‘天下大势,分久必合,合久必分’,到了初中,同桌就有了两种关系:一种是民族融合式,另一种是和平演变式。”上述例句中的旧词,被作者赋予了全新的意蕴,绽露出了新的格调,新的风韵。

篇20:写作基础方法分享

全文共 1956 字

+ 加入清单

1、博览,精读,从范文和例文中体会和学习各种写法。

写作和阅读不可分割。读写结合,从范文中借鉴,极有助于提高写作能力。古人说:读书破万卷,下笔如有神,熟读唐诗三百首,不会吟诗也会吟,劳于读书,逸于作文,这些经验之谈,是有道理的。

阅读对于写作的作用是多方面的。首先,博览群书,可以开阔思维,活跃文思。陆机说:伫中区以玄览,颐情志于典坟。他认为观察事物可激发文思,研读古籍也可以丰富文思。有些人写文章如行云流水,笔到之处,文意丰富,言辞自然,这和他读书多有极大关系。其次,阅读还可以吸取和丰富写作材料。从根本上说,写作中的材料都是取自社会生活,但一个人的阅历有限,不可能对宇宙间过去和现在的所有事物都去直接观察和感受。广泛阅读,则可以帮助我们了解自己不可能亲自去接触、认知的生活和知识,从而丰富自己的写作材料。第三,阅读又是掌握写作规律、学习写作方法的有效途径。别人的好文章读得多了,耳濡目染,便会懂得文章作法。鲁迅先生也特别提倡这一点。他说:凡是已有定评的大作家,他的作品,全部就说明着应该怎样写。他称这为实物教授法。熟读名篇佳作,往往会从写法上加以效仿。读多了,效仿的次数多了,慢慢主会变成自己的方法,并能有所改进和创造。第四,阅读又可以丰富我们的词汇,提高运用语言的能力。一切古今中外名著,都是语言巨匠用提炼加工而成成的规范化的语言写成的,阅读名作,可以帮助我们更好地丰富语汇,了解更多的句式和修辞手法掌握运用评议的基本规律,提高运用评议的技巧。

2、多写多练,勇于实践,不断摸索

写作方法和技巧的掌握,最主要的途径还是要靠自己的实践。凡是有成就的作者在谈写作经验时,没有一个不强调做字。清人唐彪对此有一段精辟的论述,他说:学人只喜多读文章,不喜多做文章;不知多读乃藉人之功夫,多做乃切实求已功夫,其曾益相去远也。人之不乐多做者,大抵因艰难费力之故;不知艰难费力者,由于手笔不熟也。若荒蔬之后作文艰难,每日即一篇半篇无不可;渐演至熟,自然易矣。他在另一段话里又说:谚云,读十篇不如作一篇。盖常做则机关熟,题虽甚难,为之亦易;不常做,则理路生,题虽易,为之则难。沈虹野云:文章硬涩由于不熟,不熟由于不做。这些话讲得都是极为中肯的。

练习写作,要端正态度,防止和克服一些不正确的思想。首先要有信心。初学写作,可能写不好,如同小孩子学走路,开始时总是要摔跤的,但走着走着,也就学会了。写作也是一样,开始写不好是正常的,关键是不要因此失掉信心。只要持之以恒,慢慢就会上路。一些写作上很有成就的文章家、作家,他们的文化程度原来并不高,开始时也写不好。但他们不怕失败,不怕别人讥笑,能从实践中总结经验教训,不断摸索,终而取得成功。

练习写作,要防止自卑或自负心理。有些人开始时劲头很大,但写一段之后就停下来,不是由于失败而自卑,就是由于自满而止步。这些都是提高写作能力的大障碍。鲁迅先生就:一个作者,自卑固然不好,自负也不好;容易停滞。我想,顶好是不要自馁,总是干,但也不可自满,仍旧总是用功。写作是一种相当复杂的精神劳动,想要一蹴而就,一下子就写出好文章是不可能的。自卑和自负都容易停滞、倒退,只有总是用功,不停的干,才能有所长进。

初学写作往往还有一种急躁情绪,一下子就想写长篇大作,而不注重基本功的训练。殊不知做任何事情都要注意打基础和练基本功。基础不牢,功底不厚,事情就很难办好,只有脚踏实地,由小到大,由简至繁,由粗到精,才能逐步掌握写作要领,真正有所成就。

3、多听意见,深入思考,反复修改

文章是客观事物的反映。客观事物是复杂的,人们对客观事物的认识也要有个过程。只有深入思考,反复加工,才能正确、恰当地反映客观实际,表达好自己的思想感情。

修改是写作中的一个重要环节,是保证文章质量、提高写作水平的重要途径。有些人信奉所谓一挥而就,文不加点,写完后自己不看,不改,也不请教别人,这样就很难发现问题,更谈不到精益求精。有人是为了怕麻烦,写完了事,至于写得如何,他就不管了,这是一种不负责任的表现。它们都是提高写作水平的拦路虎、绊脚石。

修改文章,还要虚心求教,多听别人的意见。因为一个人的认识和能力总是有限的,只有躬身求教,博采众长,文章方能长进。古今中外许多大作家,不但善于向作家学习,还能向师友以及一般读者求教。相传唐代大诗人白居易每作诗,令老妪解之,问曰:解否?妪曰:解,则录之,不解,则又复易之。法国大作家莫里哀常把自己的作品读给女仆吃后悔药,每读完一部新作,女仆都称赞说写得好,莫里哀以为她文化低,是有意讨好主人。有一次,莫里哀故意把写失败了的剧本念给她听,结果女仆瞪大眼睛说:这不是先生写的。莫里哀听后非常震惊。可见文化低的人同样也能够鉴别文章的好坏。这里的关键是虚心,要有群众观点,放得下架子,才能得到有益的帮助。
