669个雅思写作基础语法扣分点介绍
全文共 740 字
+ 加入清单雅思考试中写作作为文字输出最多的一个部分,不仅考察了同学们的英语写作能力,而且很多细节语法只是的掌握程度也很能在雅思写作中体现出来,而从以往的雅思写作考试来看,扣分的点往往不是那些有难度的语法,而是一些最基础的语法知识。
一、such as与for example的混用
我们知道,在表示举例子的时候,such as与like是完全等同的,如:Wild flowers such as/like orchids and primroses are becoming rare。
但是同学们对于Such as、for example 的把握还是不够准确。我们都知道,后者接句子前者接词语表示举例子。于是就有了下面的写法:
There is a similar word in many languages, such as in French and Italian。
这里的such as改为for example为好,因为in French and Italian其实是there is a similar word in French and Italian的简化,所以要用for example来引出例证。再来看几个类似的例子:
It is possible to combine computer science with other subjects, for example physics。
二、assume 及claim 使用不够准确
我们知道, think,assume,claim是议论文中常用引出观点的动词。在实际作文中,同学们往往认为几个词的意思是一样的,完全可以代换,所以拿过来就用。甚至还有同学把consider也拿过来与之混用。我们首先还是从定义来看这几个词的不同:

篇1:关于英语论文的写作格式和规范
全文共 5936 字
+ 加入清单规范英语论文的格式,使之与国际学术惯例接轨,对从事英语教学,英语论文写作,促进国际学术交流都具有重要意义。下面是小编为你带来的关于英语论文的写作格式和规范,希望对你有帮助。
一、英语论文的标题
一篇较长的英语论文(如英语毕业论文)一般都需要标题页,其书写格式如下:第一行标题与打印纸顶端的距离约为打印纸全长的三分之一,与下行(通常为by,居中)的距离则为5cm,第三、第四行分别为作者姓名及日期(均居中)。如果该篇英语论文是学生针对某门课程而写,则在作者姓名与日期之间还需分别打上教师学衔及其姓名(如:Dr./Prof.C.Prager)及本门课程的编号或名称(如:English 734或British Novel)。打印时,如无特殊要求,每一行均需double space,即隔行打印,行距约为0.6cm(论文其他部分行距同此)。
就学生而言,如果英语论文篇幅较短,亦可不做标题页(及提纲页),而将标题页的内容打在正文第一页的左上方。第一行为作者姓名,与打印纸顶端距离约为2.5cm,以下各行依次为教师学衔和姓、课程编号(或名称)及日期;各行左边上下对齐,并留出2.5cm左右的页边空白(下同)。接下来便是论文标题及正文(日期与标题之间及标题与正文第一行之间只需隔行打印,不必留出更多空白)。
二、英语论文提纲
英语论文提纲页包括论题句及提纲本身,其规范格式如下:先在第一行(与打印纸顶端的距离仍为2.5cm左右)的始端打上 Thesis 一词及冒号,空一格后再打论题句,回行时左边须与论题句的第一个字母上下对齐。主要纲目以大写罗马数字标出,次要纲目则依次用大写英文字母、阿拉伯数字和小写英文字母标出。各数字或字母后均为一句点,空出一格后再打该项内容的第一个字母;处于同一等级的纲目,其上下行左边必须对齐。需要注意的是,同等重要的纲目必须是两个以上,即:有Ⅰ应有Ⅱ,有A应有B,以此类推。如果英文论文提纲较长,需两页纸,则第二页须在右上角用小写罗马数字标出页码,即ii(第一页无需标页码)。
三、英语论文正文
有标题页和提纲页的英语论文,其正文第一页的规范格式为:论文标题居中,其位置距打印纸顶端约5cm,距正文第一行约1.5cm。段首字母须缩进五格,即从第六格打起。正文第一页不必标页码(但应计算其页数),自第二页起,必须在每页的右上角(即空出第一行,在其后部)打上论文作者的姓,空一格后再用阿拉伯数字标出页码;阿拉伯数字(或其最后一位)应为该行的最后一个空格。在打印正文时尚需注意标点符号的打印格式,即:句末号(句号、问号及感叹号)后应空两格,其他标点符号后则空一格。
四、英语论文的文中引述
正确引用作品原文或专家、学者的论述是写好英语论文的重要环节;既要注意引述与论文的有机统一,即其逻辑性,又要注意引述格式 (即英语论文参考文献)的规范性。引述别人的观点,可以直接引用,也可以间接引用。无论采用何种方式,论文作者必须注明所引文字的作者和出处。目前美国学术界通行的做法是在引文后以圆括弧形式注明引文作者及出处。现针对文中引述的不同情况,将部分规范格式分述如下。
1.若引文不足三行,则可将引文有机地融合在论文中。如:
The divorce of Arnolds personal desire from his inheritance results in “the familiar picture of Victorian man alone in an alien universe”(Roper9).
这里,圆括弧中的Roper为引文作者的姓(不必注出全名);阿拉伯数字为引文出处的页码(不要写成p.9);作者姓与页码之间需空一格,但不需任何标点符号;句号应置于第二个圆括弧后。
2.被引述的文字如果超过三行,则应将引文与论文文字分开,如下例所示:
Whitman has proved himself an eminent democratic representative and precursor, and his “Democratic Vistas”
is an admirable and characteristic
diatribe. And if one is sorry that in it
Whitman is unable to conceive the
extreme crises of society, one is certain
that no society would be tolerable whoses
citizens could not find refreshment in its
buoyant democratic idealism.(Chase 165)
这里的格式有两点要加以注意。一是引文各行距英语论文的左边第一个字母十个空格,即应从第十一格打起;二是引文不需加引号,末尾的句号应标在最后一个词后。
3.如需在引文中插注,对某些词语加以解释,则要使用方括号(不可用圆括弧)。如:
Dr.Beaman points out that“he [Charles Darw in] has been an important factor in the debate between evolutionary theory and biblical creationism”(9).
值得注意的是,本例中引文作者的姓已出现在引导句中,故圆括弧中只需注明引文出处的页码即可。
4.如果拟引用的文字中有与论文无关的词语需要删除,则需用省略号。如果省略号出现在引文中则用三个点,如出现在引文末,则用四个点,最后一点表示句号,置于第二个圆括弧后(一般说来,应避免在引文开头使用省略号);点与字母之间,或点与点之间都需空一格。如:
Mary Shelley hated tyranny and“looked upon the poor as pathetic victims of the social system and upon the rich and highborn...with undisguised scorn and contempt...(Nitchie 43).
5.若引文出自一部多卷书,除注明作者姓和页码外,还需注明卷号。如:
Professor Chen Jias A History of English Literature aimed to give Chinese readers“a historical survey of English literature from its earliest beginnings down to the 20thcentury”(Chen,1:i).
圆括弧里的1为卷号,小写罗马数字i为页码,说明引文出自第1卷序言(引言、序言、导言等多使用小写的罗马数字标明页码)。此外,书名A History of English Literature 下划了线;规范的格式是:书名,包括以成书形式出版的作品名(如《失乐园》)均需划线,或用斜体字;其他作品,如诗歌、散文、短篇小说等的标题则以双引号标出,如“To Autumn”及前面出现的“Democratic Vistas”等。
6.如果英语论文中引用了同一作者的两篇或两篇以上的作品,除注明引文作者及页码外,还要注明作品名。如:
Bacon condemned Platoas“an obstacle to science”(Farrington, Philosophy 35).
Farrington points out that Aristotles father Nicomachus, a physician, probably trained his son in medicine(Aristotle15).
这两个例子分别引用了Farrington的两部著作,故在各自的圆括弧中分别注出所引用的书名,以免混淆。两部作品名均为缩写形式(如书名太长,在圆括弧中加以注明时均需使用缩写形式),其全名分别为Founder of Scientific Philosophy 及 The Philosophy of Francis Baconand Aristotle。
7.评析诗歌常需引用原诗句,其引用格式如下例所示。
When Beowulf dives upwards through the water and reaches the surface,“The surging waves, great tracts of water, / were all cleansed...”(1.1620-21).
这里,被引用的诗句以斜线号隔开,斜线号与前后字母及标点符号间均需空一格;圆括弧中小写的1是line的缩写;21不必写成1621。如果引用的诗句超过三行,仍需将引用的诗句与论文文字分开(参见第四项第2点内容)。
五、英语论文的文献目录
论文作者在正文之后必须提供论文中全部引文的详细出版情况,即文献目录页。美国高校一般称此页为 Works Cited, 其格式须注意下列几点:
1.目录页应与正文分开,另页打印,置于正文之后。
2.目录页应视为英语论文的一页,按论文页码的顺序在其右上角标明论文作者的姓和页码;如果条目较多,不止一页,则第一页不必标出作者姓和页码(但必须计算页数),其余各页仍按顺序标明作者姓和页码。标题Works Cited与打印纸顶端的距离约为2.5cm,与第一条目中第一行的距离仍为0.6cm;各条目之间及各行之间的距离亦为0.6cm,不必留出更多空白。
3.各条目内容顺序分别为作者姓、名、作品名、出版社名称、出版地、出版年份及起止页码等;各条目应严格按各作者姓的首字母顺序排列,但不要给各条目编码,也不必将书条与杂志、期刊等条目分列。
4.各条目第一行需顶格打印,回行时均需缩进五格,以将该条目与其他条目区分开来。
现将部分较为特殊的条目分列如下,并略加说明,供读者参考。
Two or More Books by the Same Author

1962.vii-xxxix.
如果引言与著作为同一人所写,则其格式如下例所示(By后只需注明作者姓即可):

篇2:高中散文写作基础知识
全文共 3186 字
+ 加入清单所谓散文,从广义说,是与诗歌、小说、戏剧相并列的一种文体;从狭义说,是一种自由、灵活,短小精悍,表现真人真事真实感情的文体。感情充沛没有感情就不称其为散文。散文对作者主观感情的要求是所有文体中仅次于诗歌的。散文一般的写作规律是:对事物、人生、景物突然有了感悟,感悟深入升华,敷衍成文。这感悟就是散文的意味之本,是散文的中心立意。可是要表现这样的中心立意,就是抒情。所以好的散文,记叙、议论都带有强烈的感情,字里行间都渗透着感情。以下是高中散文写作基础知识,欢迎阅读。
一、精于立意
散文的立意其实就是散文的感悟,有感悟才有散文的写作。散文的立意要求独特,就是说作者的感悟是体现作者的独特情志、独特感受、独特体验的感悟,是他人所不能产生的精神产生。依靠对生活的深入观察、感受、理解。散文立意只要从生活实际出发,凭着鲜明的感受,敏锐的观察能力,同人民同时代共同跳动的脉搏,深厚的感情,丰富的想象,深沉的思索,就会感到我们生活中洋溢着的是诗意。这诗意,是使我们心灵受到触动的东西,使我们眼睛豁然开朗的东西,思想突然升华的东西,感情更为纯洁的东西,它就是诗的灵感。我们要为自己的散文立意去努力捕捉这各心灵的颤动,思想的闪光点。
二、善于构思
构思是写作者对生活素材进行去粗取精、去伪存真、由此及彼、由表及里的加工、提炼的过程。如何寻找线索:散文的材料是很散的,每一个材料都是一颗珍珠,但这些珍珠互相之间有内在联系,我们要寻找一根线,用笔作针,将这些散落的珍珠穿起来,成为一串光彩夺目的珠圈、项链。
哪些东西可以作为线索:(六种常用的线索)一是感情线索。我们的感情在生活中发生变化,如由厌恶到喜爱,或从厌恶到喜欢,就可以用这条感情的线索把一些似乎没有关联的材料联结起来。如杨朔的荔枝蜜。二是事物线索。把发生在不同地点、不同时间、不同情况下的事件组合在一起。许多托物咏志的散文就是以物为线索的。三是人物线索。如写某一个人物在不同时间、不同地点的活动,可以用这个人物作为线索串连起来,也可以用另一个人物把不同时间、不同地点、不同人物、不同内容的事物串连起来。这个人物还可以是写作者本人我。四是思绪线索。如面对某一事物、景物沉思暇想,通过联想和想象,把有关的材料组织在一起,表达原定的主题思想。五是景物线索。通过景物描写,在写景中融进写作者的思想感情。六是行动线索。如游记以游程行踪为线索。
三、创造意境
散文的意境是情与景的交融,是意与境的统一,是作者浸透了时代精神的主观感情、意志与自然环境和社会环境的统一。散文的这种意境,应是诗的意境,即所谓诗情画意。散文应该创造出一种淡雅、闲静、情景交融的意境。巧于布局:不少散文的布局都要巧设文眼,开头往往似谈家常,结尾则加以深化,画龙点睛,并且首尾呼应,通体一贯,有机结合。明于断续:散文要散得起来,除了选材要有技巧之外,就是在叙写上要注意断续的技巧。是于断续,才能使散文的行文上挥洒自如。
四、感情具体
散文以感悟为灵魂,但感情是什么,得在文章中说明白。有些散文含蓄,不明说感,但文章中的景致、人物、事件均可以指向感悟。感悟的清楚明白如同记叙文的主题一样,要明白畅晓,让人觉得可喜,引人思考,同时要清楚的出现在文章中。散文和记叙文的最大区别:散文中所写的人生、自然、事件、景物等,都从自身感悟出发,是作者对事物特殊意义和美的发现。这种发现是知觉、思维、感觉的综合思维结果,体现了作者的深思妙悟,是散文的情、理、意、味。而记叙文是记录生活中的人和事,并不从作者的感悟出发。
散文的取材十分广泛,人间万像、宇宙万物、各色人等、宏观微观无不涉及,而这些材料一旦出现在文章中,就立即刻上了作者的主观感悟,代表着作者的人生经验、观点感受。所以,同样的材料,不同的作者所看到的内涵是不同的。这里,我们把散文的取材叫形,把作者的感悟叫神。
散文的文体特点就是:形散神聚。即所有的材料经过作者巧妙的构思联想,这些看似无关联或关联不紧密的材料(形散),但它们都指向同一主旨。这就是散文形散神聚的好处,可以让文章活泼灵动,变化多端散文的写法较其他文体更活泼自由,不拘一格。常见的方式是抒情,即使是记叙,也是带有强烈感***彩的。散文常把记叙、抒情、议论等融为一体,夹叙夹议。散文的结构追求自然而然的境界。在材料选取上,一般运用联想手法。
总体来看,抒情的散文有时气势磅礴,有时低吟轻唱;记叙的散文如诗如画,曲径通幽;议论的散文情真意切,精彩纷呈......但是不管作者怎样安排文字,怎样组织材料,归根结底还是为了表达他对人生或自然的特殊感悟。入笔细微,以小见大。一般的散文写作,我们可以从细小的方面入笔,做到以少胜多,以小见大。实际上,生活中的一件小事,一涕一笑;事物中的一枚叶片、一粒沙土......都可以体现出大的主题。对于一个有心人来说,这些小的事物同样可以写出好的文章。夹叙夹议,感情真实。不论何种感情,都要真实的表现出作者的状况。散文因为有对生活和事物的感悟,就得有夹叙夹议的的表达方式。
散文具有记叙、议论、抒情三种功能,与此相应,散文可分为记叙性散文、抒情性散文和议论性散文三种。
⒈记叙散文
以记叙人物、事件、景物为主的散文,称为记叙散文。
记叙散文叙事较完整,写人人物形象鲜明,描写景物倾注作者的情感。这类散文与短篇小说相似,但又有明显的区别。就叙事而言,散文所述的事件不要求情节完整,更不追求曲折变化,而小说对叙事的要求要较散文高得多;另外,散文在叙事的时候需要饱蘸情感,小说的情感则主要由人物体现出来,不须作者明确抒发。就写人而言,小说要求努力塑造典型人物形象,典型人物是作者虚构出来的。而散文中的人物则是在真人真事的基础上,进行某些剪裁加工,注重对人物进行写意式的描绘。
根据该类散文内容的侧重点不同,又可将它区分为记事散文和写人散文。
偏重于记事的散文以事件发展为线索,偏重对事件的叙述。它可以是一个有头有尾的故事,如许地山的落花生,也可以是几个片断的剪辑,如鲁迅的从百草园到三味书屋。在叙事中倾注作者真挚的感情,这是与小说叙事最显著的区别。
偏重于记人的散文,全篇以人物为中心。它往往抓住人物的性格特征作粗线条勾勒,偏重表现人物的基本气质、性格和精神面貌,如鲁迅藤野先生。人物形象是否真实是它与小说的区别。
另外,这类散文中还有一种偏重于描写景物的一类,这种散文描写一地的景物,除一些风土志以外,主要是游记性散文。它的内容十分广泛,山川景色、风俗民情、名胜古迹都属记游范围。游记散文最主要的特点是:作品所描写的景物必须完全真实,不允许夸饰和虚构;但又不是照相似的实录,而是作者融情于物,达到情景交融。
⒉抒情性散文
主要用以抒发作者主观情感的散文叫抒情散文。
富有情感是所有散文的共同特征,但与其他散文相比,抒情散文情感更强想象更丰富,语言更具有诗意
抒情散文主要用象征、比兴、拟人等方法,通过对外在形象的描绘来传达作者的情思,因此借景抒情和托物言志是这类散文最常用的手法。而直抒胸臆的方法,在文章中可以出现,但通篇用此一法者并不多见。
托物言志式散文,即象征性散文,作者将情感融于某个具有象征意义的具体事物,借助象形联想或意蕴联想把主观情感表现出来。如杨朔的多数散文,矛盾的白杨礼赞等。
借景抒情的散文,将感情寓于景物之中,赋景物以生命,明写景,暗写情,做到情景交融,情景相生。如朱自清的荷塘月色、刘白羽的日出等。
⒊议论性散文
以发表议论为主的散文称为议论散文。
它与抒情散文一样注重情感的抒发,不同的是议论散文重于理智,抒情散文重于感情。
它又不同于一般的议论文,用事实和逻辑来说理,而主要用文学形象来说话,是一种文艺性的议论文。
它既有生动的形象,又有严密的逻辑;既要以情动人,又要以理服人;融形、情、理于一炉,合政论与文艺于一体。鲁迅先生的杂文、陶铸的松树的风格等都是典型的议论散文。

篇4:2024高考英语写作素材精选:冬至习俗
全文共 1325 字
+ 加入清单Winter solstice is the earliest Chinese festival, call it yesterday, as early as the han dynasty had formed when we are familiar with todays twenty-four solar terms. Twenty-four solar terms, every 15 days for a throttle, a throttle is divided into three. As the winter solstice is divided into "hou earthworms knot; 2 hou elk horn, three HouShuiQuan move." Are the ancients from traditional agricultural production routine. Fade as the farming civilization, modern agriculture is affected by season is not very big, such as the vegetables all the year round in the greenhouses, traditional throttle effect on guidance and restriction of agricultural farming is also a little bit fade.
People now pay more attention to the throttle keeping in good health, in winter it was the season of supplements. After spring, summer, autumn three season, the body organs need to enter a state of rest during the winter, physical consumption in winter supplements in the past. Left the teacher said, so also have "winter signings, dozen tiger next year" the proverb.
冬至是中国最早的节日,称之为冬节,早在汉代时候已经形成了我们今天熟悉的二十四节气。二十四节气,每十五天为一个节气,一个节气分为三候。如冬至分为“一候蚯蚓结;二候麋角解,三候水泉动。”都是以古人从传统农业生产生活规律中总结出来的。随着农耕文明逐渐消退,现代农业受季节的影响不是很大,比如大棚里的菜一年四季都可以吃到,传统节气对农业种田的辅导和制约作用也在一点点消退。
现在的人们更多关注的是节气养生,冬季也是进补的季节。经历春夏秋三季后,身体各个器官在冬季需要进入休息的状态,过去身体上的消耗在冬天进补。左老师说,因此也有“冬季进补,来年打虎”的俗语。
篇5:写作基础-互文
全文共 610 字
+ 加入清单一、互文是一种修辞手法,又叫互辞,互参。
在古代汉语中,上下两句或一句话中的两个部分,看似各说一件事,实则是互相呼应,互相阐发,互相补充,说的是一件事。解释时要把上下句的意思互相补足,否则就会理解出错。
比如:
“将军百战死,壮士十年归”。——《木兰诗》
如果翻译成“将军经过百战之后都战死了,回来的都是久经战场的壮士”,我们明显可以感觉到逻辑上讲不通,就是因为它用了互文的修辞手法。这一句是说:“将军和壮士经历了很多年征战,有的战死,有的归来”
应该翻译成“将军和壮士们经过多年征战,有的光荣殉国,有的载誉而归”
互文的表现形式:
同句互文。即在同一个句子里出现的互文。
比如:
1.朝晖夕阴。 ——《岳阳楼记》
意思是“朝晖夕阴”和“朝阴夕晖”。“朝”和“夕”、“晖”和“阴”是互文。
以下句子也都一样。
2.“秦时明月汉时关” 。“秦”和“汉”是互相补充。
3.“主人下马客在船”
4.“东船西舫悄无言”
5.“东犬西吠”
二、邻句互文。即在相邻的句子里出现互文!
比如:
1.不以物喜,不以己悲。——《岳阳楼记》
意思是 不因“物”﹝所处的环境﹞或“己”﹝个人的遭遇﹞而喜,也不因“物”或“己”而悲。)
2.将军百战死,壮士十年归

古代汉语中对互文修辞的解释是:“参互成文,含而见文。”具体地说,互文的特征是“文省而意存”,主要表现在两个方面:
一、结构特征:互省。比如上面例子。
二、语义特征:互补。比如“当窗理云鬓,对镜贴花黄”——《木兰诗》。

篇7:写作基础:写一个人的记叙文
全文共 697 字
+ 加入清单导语:写人的记叙文怎么写呢?有哪些方法可以更好地写好一个人的记叙文呢?我们来看看吧!
记一个人的写人记叙文,大致有以下三种情况:
(一)通过写一件事写一个人。有的文章写人只写了一件事,写这一类的作文要注意以下几点:
1、要选择有代表性的生动事例画写。反映一个人的精神面貌的事例是很多的,通过一件事写人就要选取最有代表性的生动事例来写。
2、要写出事情的发展过程,使人物的形象逐步完整。
3、要把事情写具体。用一个典型事例记叙一个人,应该把这一事例写具体,这样人物形象才能丰满。
4、为了使读者对人物了解得更全面,使重点记叙的这件事有充分的依据和坚实的思想基础,使人物的形象更加丰富,文章的开头可以对人物作简要的介绍。
(二)通过几件事写一个人。
我们在生活中会接触到各种各样的人,有时使用一件事来反映一个人就显得比较单簿,不足以充分反映人物的特点及其品质,因此,必须用两三件事才可能说的明白,再现得充分。
通过几件事写一个人,要注意以下几点:
1、几件事不能相互矛盾,人物的性格在几件事中要和谐、统一。
2、概括交代和具体描写相结合。在一篇简短的作文中要用几件事写一个人,不可能将每一件事详细叙述,因此一般可以彩杨交代和具体描写相结合的方法。即先概括交代一些事例,再具体记叙一两件事。
(三)通过对比的方法写一个人。
通过对比方法写一个人,一般有三种:第一种是同一个人前后相比,说明这个人变化;第二种是对一个人的认识前后相比,说明这个人的品质;第三种是一个人同另一个人比,突出歌颂其中一个人。
通过对比的方法写一个人要注意:
(1)要突出主要人物及其主要特点。
(2)要写出人物的真实表现,不要捏造事实,采用拔高或贬低的方法。

2. Damaging Research
A study by National Parent-Teacher Organization revealed that in the average American school, eighteen negatives are identified for every positive that is pointed out. The Wisconsin study revealed that when children enter the first grade, 80 percent of them feel pretty good themselves, but by the time they get to the sixth grade, only 10 percent of them have good self-images.
3. Education and Citizenship
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9:新闻写作基础知识:通讯
全文共 2626 字
+ 加入清单通讯,是运用叙述、描写、抒情、议论等多种手法,具体、生动、形象地反映新闻事件或典型人物的一种新闻报道形式。小编收集了新闻写作基础知识:通讯,欢迎阅读。
通讯是以叙述、描写为主要表达方式,将具有新闻价值的人物或事件及时、具体、生动地予 以报道的新闻体裁。
一、通讯特点
通讯作为报刊、电台等媒体最主要的体裁之一,新闻性显然是基本的特征。而新闻性中,真 实、时效、思想性及典型意义构成了它的不同层面。就报道对象言,或是人物、事件,或是 经验、成果、工作情况、社会风貌等,都必须是真实的,不允许虚构或“合理想象”,而且 报道对象应该具有必须的思想性和典型意义。就报道时效言,通讯虽不及消息这般快速敏捷 ,有时为将人物、事件报道细致完整需时较长,但也必须及时,仍须有很强的时效概念。除 去真实、时效的新闻性特征,通讯的主要特点有:
1、生动性。
通讯尤其是人物通讯具有一定的文学色彩。消息在表达上主要 是平面的叙述,语言追求简洁 、明快、准确。通讯则较多借用文学手段,可以描写、抒情、对话,可以用比喻、象征、拟 人等修辞。因此通讯在语言和表达方法上都具有一定的文学性,它在报道真实的人和事的过 程中,善于再现情景,平添许多生动和形象,给人以立体感、现场感。
此外,通讯虽然一般以第三人称叙述为主,但在“见闻”、“采访记”一类的通讯中,也采 用第一人称。不过其中的“我”主要起见证人或采访线索的作用。在效果上第一人称的使用 也增加了一些亲切感。
2、完整性。
通讯须相对完整、具体地报道人物或事物的过程。消息侧重写 事,叙述 简明扼要,一般不展开情节。通讯可写人物也可写事件,其材料比消息丰富、全面,其容量 比消息厚实、充足。它要求详尽、具体地报告事件的经过、演绎人物的命运,充分展开情节 ,甚至描写细节和场面。这些既是生动性的表现,同时也是内容完整性、具体化的要求。
3、评论性。
通讯须运用夹叙夹议的方法对人或事作出直接的评论。消息是 以事实说话,除 述评消息一般不允许作者直接发表议论。通讯则要求在报道人物或事件的同时,表露记者的 感情与倾向。然而通讯的评论不同于议论性文体的论证,它须时时紧扣人物或事件,依傍事 实作适时的、恰到好处评价点拨。因此这是一种通过描写、叙述、抒情等表达手段进行的议 论,它的特点是以情感人,理在情中。
二、通讯种类
1、人物通讯
是以人物的思想、言行、事迹和命运为报道内容的通讯。 人物通讯并非仅仅 是“名人通讯”,报道对象的选择取决于其蕴含的新闻价值,一般来说人物必须具有先进性 或典型性。在取材上可写“全人全貌”,也可截取片断着重写人物的某个侧面或阶段。此两 类一般以人物的“行”为主,而“人物专访”则以写人物的“言”为主。通过记者的专访, 记述人物的谈话,从而揭示其精神世界。
2、事件通讯
是以具典型意义的事件为报道对象的通讯。事件通讯时效 性较强,它围绕中 心事件选材,虽不着力刻划人物,但往往通过典型事件表现一群人或一个集体。所以它通过 较为详尽地展示事件的完整过程,挖掘其意义,揭示其本质,进而反映社会风尚,弘扬时代 精神。 除人物通讯与事件通讯外,另有:“工作通讯”,这是介绍某单位先进事迹,传播其典型经 验和做法,以指导一般的通讯;“概貌通讯”,这是记述某地区、部门、行业、工程的新面 貌、新气象的通讯。报刊上常见的“见闻”、“纪行”、“巡礼”、“散记”均属此类。此 外,还有以写一段片断、一个场景、一场冲突为对象的“新闻故事”、“小通讯”之类,它 们以生动、快捷的形式宣传新人新事新风尚,实为通讯家属中不可忽视的一员。
三、通讯写作
1、关于选材与提炼主题
占有材料对通讯写作来说就是通过扎实细致的采访广泛搜集第一手材料。随后在纷繁的直接 材料中剥离出典型材料、背景材料。这些材料不仅要求真实,而且要有意义,具有典型性、 指导性,同时还要有意味,具有具体、完整、感人的生动性、情节性。在这般基础上根据深 和新的原则提炼主题,通讯才可能呼应社会关注热点,反映时代风尚特点,宣传党的路线方 针,从而以正确的舆论引导人,以先进的人物激励人,以真实的事件震撼人。然而通讯写的 是真人真事,其主题必须从实际生活中提炼而来,不能随意“拔高”,更不能虚构夸大,它 永远不能违背新闻的真实性原则。
2、关于写人
事因人生,人以事观。人与事虽不可分,但在人物通讯与事件通讯中的确有以人为主和以事 为主之别,为叙述方便故而分之。 写人在文学创作中已积累丰富经验,在“非虚构”的原则下,我们不妨可借用其多种手段, 并注意以下三个方面:第一,形与神兼备。即不仅要写出人物的行为和事迹,更要展示其精 神世界;第二,言与行统一。人物语言、行为表达、传递出人物的思想,而不同的语气、句 式、词汇及动作表情、神态等是极富个性色彩的内心表露形式。写好了人物的言与行,无疑 是写活了人;第三,画龙必须点睛。如果说言行、事例、情节勾勒出人物的整体形象称为“ 龙” ,那么揭示人物行为意义,指出人物个性特点的评点便是“睛”。“画龙”用的是纪实的叙 述、描写,“点睛”则是超脱的议论或抒情。
3、关于叙事
通讯离不开写事,事件通讯更须完整地叙述事件的起因、人员、场面、结果等,以交待事件 的复杂性和社会影响度。叙事要注意两点:第一,理清主线、丰满细节。一个新闻事件的发 生、发展过程中,有因有果,有人有事,头绪多而关系复杂,作者须理清主线,按事件原貌 将其完整地、动态地、立体地呈现给读者。而为实现这一目标,就须选择典型的细节。一篇 优秀的事件通讯,必然有几个生动感人的细节来充分展示主线,使作品丰满而具现场感。第二,时间为经、时间为纬。通讯须有一定的时间要领因为事件、故事总在于一定的时间和空间中。纺织好时空画面既是一个结构总是也是一个表达方法问题。篇幅不长而情节不太复杂的事件通讯可多运用插叙、补叙、分叙等手段,充分展开矛盾和利用背景材料,使文章有变化起伏。容量大而情节复杂的事件通讯则常常运用时空交叉方式,以时间推进、空间变换等手段来切割事件,构成若干侧面。经过作者精心的组合剪辑将事件完整而利落地报告于世。
显然选材与提炼主题是各类通讯写作中必须面对的,而写人与叙事则因通讯品种不同而有所侧重。但是通讯的写作模式也必然带来约束,因而通讯的散文化写法亦开始为人注目。所谓 的散文化倾向有以下几个特点:(一)生活面更趋广阔,(二)结构不拘一格,(三)技法更多样 化,(四)报道呈系列化。
篇10:英语论文的格式与写作方法
全文共 5884 字
+ 加入清单语言和内容是评判一篇英语论文质量高低的重要依据;但是,写作格式规范与否亦是一个不可忽略的衡量标准。小编收集了英语论文的格式与写作方法,欢迎阅读。
一、英语论文的标题
一篇较长的英语论文(如英语毕业论文)一般都需要标题页,其书写格式如下:第一行标题与打印纸顶端的距离约为打印纸全长的三分之一,与下行(通常为by,居中)的距离则为5cm,第三、第四行分别为作者姓名及日期(均居中)。如果该篇英语论文是学生针对某门课程而写,则在作者姓名与日期之间还需分别打上教师学衔及其姓名(如:Dr./Prof.C.Prager)及本门课程的编号或名称(如:English 734或British Novel)。打印时,如无特殊要求,每一行均需double space,即隔行打印,行距约为0.6cm(论文其他部分行距同此)。
就学生而言,如果英语论文篇幅较短,亦可不做标题页(及提纲页),而将标题页的内容打在正文第一页的左上方。第一行为作者姓名,与打印纸顶端距离约为2.5cm,以下各行依次为教师学衔和姓、课程编号(或名称)及日期;各行左边上下对齐,并留出2.5cm左右的页边空白(下同)。接下来便是论文标题及正文(日期与标题之间及标题与正文第一行之间只需隔行打印,不必留出更多空白)。
二、英语论文提纲
英语论文提纲页包括论题句及提纲本身,其规范格式如下:先在第一行(与打印纸顶端的距离仍为2.5cm左右)的始端打上 Thesis 一词及冒号,空一格后再打论题句,回行时左边须与论题句的第一个字母上下对齐。主要纲目以大写罗马数字标出,次要纲目则依次用大写英文字母、阿拉伯数字和小写英文字母标出。各数字或字母后均为一句点,空出一格后再打该项内容的第一个字母;处于同一等级的纲目,其上下行左边必须对齐。需要注意的是,同等重要的纲目必须是两个以上,即:有Ⅰ应有Ⅱ,有A应有B,以此类推。如果英文论文提纲较长,需两页纸,则第二页须在右上角用小写罗马数字标出页码,即ii(第一页无需标页码)。
三、英语论文正文
有标题页和提纲页的英语论文,其正文第一页的规范格式为:论文标题居中,其位置距打印纸顶端约5cm,距正文第一行约1.5cm。段首字母须缩进五格,即从第六格打起。正文第一页不必标页码(但应计算其页数),自第二页起,必须在每页的右上角(即空出第一行,在其后部)打上论文作者的姓,空一格后再用阿拉伯数字标出页码;阿拉伯数字(或其最后一位)应为该行的最后一个空格。在打印正文时尚需注意标点符号的打印格式,即:句末号(句号、问号及感叹号)后应空两格,其他标点符号后则空一格。
四、英语论文的文中引述
正确引用作品原文或专家、学者的论述是写好英语论文的重要环节;既要注意引述与论文的有机统一,即其逻辑性,又要注意引述格式 (即英语论文参考文献)的规范性。引述别人的观点,可以直接引用,也可以间接引用。无论采用何种方式,论文作者必须注明所引文字的作者和出处。目前美国学术界通行的做法是在引文后以圆括弧形式注明引文作者及出处。现针对文中引述的不同情况,将部分规范格式分述如下。
1.若引文不足三行,则可将引文有机地融合在论文中。如:
The divorce of Arnolds personal desire from his inheritance results in “the familiar picture of Victorian man alone in an alien universe”(Roper9).
这里,圆括弧中的Roper为引文作者的姓(不必注出全名);阿拉伯数字为引文出处的页码(不要写成p.9);作者姓与页码之间需空一格,但不需任何标点符号;句号应置于第二个圆括弧后。
2.被引述的文字如果超过三行,则应将引文与论文文字分开,如下例所示:
Whitman has proved himself an eminent democratic representative and precursor, and his “Democratic Vistas”
is an admirable and characteristic
diatribe. And if one is sorry that in it
Whitman is unable to conceive the
extreme crises of society, one is certain
that no society would be tolerable whoses
citizens could not find refreshment in its
buoyant democratic idealism.(Chase 165)
这里的格式有两点要加以注意。一是引文各行距英语论文的左边第一个字母十个空格,即应从第十一格打起;二是引文不需加引号,末尾的句号应标在最后一个词后。
3.如需在引文中插注,对某些词语加以解释,则要使用方括号(不可用圆括弧)。如:
Dr.Beaman points out that“he [Charles Darw in] has been an important factor in the debate between evolutionary theory and biblical creationism”(9).
值得注意的是,本例中引文作者的姓已出现在引导句中,故圆括弧中只需注明引文出处的页码即可。
4.如果拟引用的文字中有与论文无关的词语需要删除,则需用省略号。如果省略号出现在引文中则用三个点,如出现在引文末,则用四个点,最后一点表示句号,置于第二个圆括弧后(一般说来,应避免在引文开头使用省略号);点与字母之间,或点与点之间都需空一格。如:
Mary Shelley hated tyranny and“looked upon the poor as pathetic victims of the social system and upon the rich and highborn...with undisguised scorn and contempt...(Nitchie 43).
5.若引文出自一部多卷书,除注明作者姓和页码外,还需注明卷号。如:
Professor Chen Jias A History of English Literature aimed to give Chinese readers“a historical survey of English literature from its earliest beginnings down to the 20thcentury”(Chen,1:i).
圆括弧里的1为卷号,小写罗马数字i为页码,说明引文出自第1卷序言(引言、序言、导言等多使用小写的罗马数字标明页码)。此外,书名 A History of English Literature 下划了线;规范的格式是:书名,包括以成书形式出版的作品名(如《失乐园》)均需划线,或用斜体字;其他作品,如诗歌、散文、短篇小说等的标题则以双引号标出,如“To Autumn”及前面出现的“Democratic Vistas”等。
6.如果英语论文中引用了同一作者的两篇或两篇以上的作品,除注明引文作者及页码外,还要注明作品名。如:
Bacon condemned Platoas“an obstacle to science”(Farrington, Philosophy 35).
Farrington points out that Aristotles father Nicomachus, a physician, probably trained his son in medicine(Aristotle 15).
这两个例子分别引用了Farrington的两部著作,故在各自的圆括弧中分别注出所引用的书名,以免混淆。两部作品名均为缩写形式(如书名太长,在圆括弧中加以注明时均需使用缩写形式),其全名分别为 Founder of Scientific Philosophy 及 The Philosophy of Francis Baconand Aristotle。
7.评析诗歌常需引用原诗句,其引用格式如下例所示。
When Beowulf dives upwards through the water and reaches the surface,“The surging waves, great tracts of water, / were all cleansed...”(1.1620-21).
这里,被引用的诗句以斜线号隔开,斜线号与前后字母及标点符号间均需空一格;圆括弧中小写的1是line的缩写;21不必写成1621。如果引用的诗句超过三行,仍需将引用的诗句与论文文字分开(参见第四项第2点内容)。
五、英语论文的文献目录
论文作者在正文之后必须提供论文中全部引文的详细出版情况,即文献目录页。美国高校一般称此页为 Works Cited, 其格式须注意下列几点:
1.目录页应与正文分开,另页打印,置于正文之后。
2.目录页应视为英语论文的一页,按论文页码的顺序在其右上角标明论文作者的姓和页码;如果条目较多,不止一页,则第一页不必标出作者姓和页码(但必须计算页数),其余各页仍按顺序标明作者姓和页码。标题Works Cited与打印纸顶端的距离约为2.5cm,与第一条目中第一行的距离仍为0.6cm;各条目之间及各行之间的距离亦为0.6cm,不必留出更多空白。
3.各条目内容顺序分别为作者姓、名、作品名、出版社名称、出版地、出版年份及起止页码等;各条目应严格按各作者姓的首字母顺序排列,但不要给各条目编码,也不必将书条与杂志、期刊等条目分列。
4.各条目第一行需顶格打印,回行时均需缩进五格,以将该条目与其他条目区分开来。
现将部分较为特殊的条目分列如下,并略加说明,供读者参考。

篇13: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。
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17:写作基础知识—散文的写作
全文共 1502 字
+ 加入清单导语:中国是一个散文大国。古今的散文大家和作品,享誉很高。我们这里要学习的主要是抒情散文,也涉及叙事散文和其它类型的散文。作者可以根据自己的人生阅历、文化素养和爱好,或写作抒情散文,或作叙事散文,或写文化散文,或作智慧散文,或写游历散文,或作其它类型的散文。
其次,要认清散文的写作特点。散文是一种内容丰富、题材广泛、篇幅短小、体裁多样、形式灵活、文情并茂的文体。
在写作上,它有以下六个特点:
(一)内容丰富,题材广泛散文的内容涉及自然万物、各色人等、古今中外、政事私情……可以说是无所不包、无所不有的。可以写国内外和社会上的矛盾、斗争,写经济建设,写文艺论争,写伦理道德,也可以写文艺随笔,读书笔记,日记书简;既可以是风土人物志、游记和偶感录,也可以是知识小品、文坛轶事;它能够谈天说地,更可以抒情写趣。凡是能给人以思想启迪、美的感受、情操的陶治,使人开阔视野,丰富知识,心旷神怡的,都可选作散文的题材。
(二)思想警辟,诗意盎然散文多是真情实感的产物,那些优秀的篇章,都有思想火花的闪耀,表现着作者对时代和人生的深刻认识与精辟见解。
(三)短小精悍,自由灵活有人称散文是文艺战线上的“轻骑兵”,就是因为它具有篇章短小精悍、形式灵活自由的特点。
(五)直抒胸臆,自具风格文学作品都是带有感情的,但小说、戏剧的作者,往往把自己强烈的感情倾注在人物形象的塑造上,作者对生活的感受、对人物的爱憎褒贬,一般是通过间接的方式表现出来的。而散文则不一样,它常常象诗歌一样,每每用直接抒情的方式抒写胸臆,不仅使读者知其理、晓其事,而且悟其心、感其情,因此,散文要求作者写真情实感。真情是散文的生命,只有直抒胸臆,把真情实感捧给读者,才会赢得读者的喜爱。作家贾平凹在回答“散文创作要不要绝对真实”的问题时说:“这个问题争论很多,又都没有一定结论。我个人的体会,还是倾向于‘绝对真实’四个字。所谓真实,主要是指在感情以及运用环境和事件上。古人写的散文,题材也是很广泛的,但古人写散文,都是有感而发。今人写散文,多多少少存在着一些为写而写的现象,所以在绝对真实问题上就出现了所谓‘理论与实践上的不一致。’也正因为如此,这些散文就写得不那么成功了。
(六)惨淡经营,文采斐然优秀的散文不可能是“掉以轻心”写出来的,它们都是作者惨淡经营、刻意加工的结晶。秦牧指出:“一篇小小的散文也许写作时间仅仅是一两个小时,但却要求作家深厚的素养,而且不断扩大和丰富这种素养。把散文当作是‘小功夫’,‘掉以轻心’的写作态度,是很不利于我们散文创作的繁荣发展的。即使是怎样熟练的名作家,我们也要求他们在写作一篇小文章时,采取‘大象搏狮用全力,搏兔也用全力’的态度。”有些散文家提倡散文的“整体 美”,也是要求作者在内容和形式上都“惨淡经营”。整篇文章是惨淡经营、刻意加工写成的,它的语言就是精炼的,文采斐然的。这是由于作者运用的是散文笔调。那么什么是“散文笔调”呢?
可以说,散文笔调一方面表现在它的行文灵活自如,另一方面则表现在它十分讲究文采。散文的文采不仅有华丽的,而且有朴素的。
小编结语:学习散文写作,既要掌握华丽的文采,也要掌握朴素的文采。写得华丽并不容易,写得朴素更难。徐迟的文章是很有文采的,他常用赋的方法兼用比、兴修辞,使得文采华美。但是他说:“只有写得朴素了,才能显出真正的文采来。古今大散文家,都是这样写作的。越是大作家,越到成熟之时,越是写得朴素。而文采闪耀在朴素的篇页之上。”我们还要看到,不管是华丽的还是朴素的,散文的富有文采的语言都是从新鲜、活泼的口语中来的,也是对优秀的古代散文创造性的继承,也是作者仔细选择、锤炼和加工的结果。

篇20:打下GMAT写作坚实基础的三个方法
全文共 559 字
+ 加入清单强化阅读。读书破万卷,下笔如有神,大量的阅读能丰富词汇量,提高语感,增长见识。阅读材料可以选择两个来源,一是原版国外名著,因为它们是英语规范语言的结晶;二是杂志、报刊和互联网等,这些资源是接触新词汇、新概念、新观点的好工具。
学以致用。GMAT写作的基本要求就是能在一般商业环境中有效和准确表达自己的观点。在国内如果不是在外企,恐怕很难有和他人用英语口头或者书面交流的机会。这时候可以考虑去一些英语聊天室或者聊天工具上和说英语的国内或国外朋友交流。国内比较热门的英语聊天室有263的英语角,有不少国内英语高手,也有一些国外朋友。ICQ,Yahoo Messager等也是结识国外朋友,练习书面英语的好地方。
专项提高。创造一个动笔的机会,要在GMAT写作中取得高分,还需要针对性练习。GMAT写作是分析性写作,或者要求和某一事物针锋相对提出和证明自己的观点,或者要求支持对方观点,属于议论文范畴。议论文的关键是自圆其说和有理有据,其篇章布局都有一定规律可循,可以当做新八股文来作:复述事实提出自己观点分点说明并举例证明总结。
GMAT写作高分之路没有捷径,需要考生不断拓展自己的阅读为GMAT写作打下坚实的基础,也需要考生平时留言中英文的思维差别,多了解英文的思维和逻辑和论证方法,做好充足的准备,GMAT作文高分不会遥远。
