1.?????? Proverbs

1. A graduation ceremony is an event where the commencement speaker tells thousands of students dressed in identical caps and gowns that individuality is the key to success.

2. The primary purpose of a liberal education is to make one’s mind a pleasant place in which to spend one’s time.

3. Next in importance to freedom and justice is popular education, without which neither freedom nor justice can be permanently maintained.

4. The classroom--not the trench--is the frontier of freedom now and forevermore.

5. Education’s purpose is to replace an empty mind with an open one.

6. It is the purpose of education to help us become autonomous, creative, inquiring people who have the will and intelligence to create our own destiny.

7. You see, real ongoing, lifelong education doesn’t answer questions; it provokes them.

8. People will pay more to be entertained than educated.

9.the most important function of education at any level is to develop the personality of the individual and the significance of his life to himself and to others. This is the basic architecture of a life; the rest is ornamentation and decoration of the structure.

10. The essence of our efforts to see that every child has a chance must be to assure each as equal opportunity, not to become equal, but to become different-to realize whatever unique potential of body, mind, and spirit he or she possesses.

11. A great teacher never strives to explain his vision-he simply invites you to stand beside him and see for yourself.

12. If you can read and don’, you are an illiterate by choice.

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3:写作基础:小学生怎样写好写景作文

全文共 3911 字

+ 加入清单

同学们在习作中经常要描写景物,你你知道怎样写好写景作文吗?下面是小编为大家带来的小学生怎样写好写景作文的知识,欢迎阅读。

一、学习抓景物特点的几种方法。

同学们,地各有貌,不同的环境有不同的特点。因此,我们要仔细观察景物,抓住特点写具体,让人有身临其境之感。请看以下片断,想想作者是怎样抓住景物特点写的。

1.出示“夏日的中午,万里碧空上飘着朵朵白云。这些白云,有的几片连在一起,像海洋里翻滚着银色的浪花,像层峦叠嶂的远山,有时在一片银灰色的大云层上,又飘浮着一朵朵大小不一、形状不同的云朵儿,就像岛屿礁石上怒放的海石花。”这个片断作者是抓住了白云的形状、大小进行描写的。

2.请同学们再读以下几个片断,看看这几位作者又是怎样抓住景物特点写的?

①“这地方的火烧云变化极多,一会儿红彤彤的,一会儿金灿灿的,一会儿半紫半黄,一会儿半灰半百合色。葡萄灰,梨黄,茄子紫,这些颜色天空都有,还有些说也说不出来,见也没见过的颜色。”这个片断作者抓住了火烧云的色彩绚丽的特点进行描写的,从而反映了火烧云的美。

②“远处,几棵栎树呆立不动,一群一群的羚羊和驼鸟走来走去。一条弯弯的小河缓缓地向东南流去,岸边盛开着一簇簇美丽的鲜花。”这个片断作者抓住了栎树、羚羊、驼鸟、小河、鲜花的数量进行描写的。

③“傍晚,青蛙‘呱呱’地叫起来,啄木鸟‘笃笃’地啄着树杆。甲虫‘嗡嗡’地叫。扬科躺在河边静静地听着。”这个片断作者抓住了青蛙、啄木鸟、甲虫发出的声响进行描写,反映了小音乐家扬科对音乐的喜爱。

3.写景除了抓住景物的形状、大小、色彩、数量、声响这些方面进行描写外,还可以从那些方面抓住景物的特点进行描写呢?还可抓住景物的神韵、动态变化来写。例如

①“现在正是枝叶繁茂的时节。这棵大榕树好像在把它全部生命展示给我们看。那么多的绿叶,一簇堆在另一簇上面,不留一点缝隙。翠绿的颜色明亮地在我们眼前闪耀,似乎每一片树叶上都有一个新生命在颤动,这美丽的南国的树!”这段描写作者抓住了大榕树枝繁叶茂中所表现出的神韵进行描写,使我们感觉到她充满了生命力。

②以上描写“火烧云”的片断。作者是抓住了火烧云短时间里色彩变化多、快的特点,反映了火烧云的美、奇。

③“清晨,江面上格外平静,碧波荡漾,银光闪烁,海鸥在江面上展翅飞翔。此时,我总爱伫立在江堤上向北眺望吴淞口,那一望无际的江面,水天相连。一陈清风拂来,猛吸一口新鲜空气,顿时令人心旷神怡。江堤边的树林里,鸟儿清脆的叫声此起彼伏。一群老人在堤岸边散步,打太极拳……当阳光撒满江面的时候,江面开始沸腾了。你看,那大小船只来来往往,川流不息。机帆船的马达声、大轮船的汽笛声,江浪的撞击声交织在一起,奏响了一支雄壮的交响乐。“呜“的一声汽笛。一艘万吨轮由远而近,所到之处涌起两排巨浪,呈八字形,像两条白龙朝两面三刀岸滚来,浪花扑打在江边的岩石滩上,溅起一簇簇白花……傍晚,夕阳把江面映得通红。此时,我和小伙伴们总爱到江边的岩石堆上捉螃蜞。一个傍晚可捉二、三十只。晚上,沸腾的江面恢复了宁静。这时,停靠在码头上的万吨巨轮灯火辉煌,和天上的繁星交相辉映,把船边的江水也映红了。江风阵阵,迎面袭来,驱散了夏日的暑意。”这个片断作者抓住了江面从早到晚的变化,写出了江面特有的美景。

④我们的教室和操场中间,有一条甬道,甬道两旁是两排齐刷刷的梧桐树。春风给它满枝叶苞,点点鹅黄,片片嫩绿。夏日,一张绎叶就是一个绿色的巴掌,托着一轮骄阳。一棵树就是一把漂亮的遮阳伞,树下清风习习。梧桐美在秋天。每天中秋过后,几场秋雨。几阵秋风,把那叶子染成锈红色。此时,蓝王码电脑公司软件中心高空,秋阳淡光,梧桐白白的躯干,红红的树冠,显得分外娴静、妖娆,优雅、庄重。走在这甬道上,置身在画图中,沉浸在恬适的氛围里。不必可惜,西北风一夜刮尽树叶,那遍地铺金,不正象征这金色的丰收季节吗?冬天,梧桐粗壮的树干,光秃的枝桠,倔强地挺立在那里,顶严寒,斗风雪。看到它,缩颈袖手的人会挺起胸来,凝视它的身影,会油然而生敬意。这个片断作者抓住了梧桐树在一年四季的不同特点,反映了作者对校园梧桐树的喜爱和赞美之情。

二、总结抓景物特点,写好景物的几种方法。

同学们,以上这些片断告诉我们,要写好景物,可抓住景物的形状、大小、色彩、数量、声响、神韵、变化等这些方面进行描写。这样就可抓住景物的特征,使读者感到鲜明生动,有身临其境之感。当然,并不是在写每样景物时,都要运用以上这些描写方法,应根据所写景物的特征,有所侧重地选择景物描写方法,而且写时要展开丰富的联想。另外,还须注意描写景物也要按一定的顺序,一层一层地写。有的按景物的远近写;有的按方位写;有的按整体与局部的关系写,等等。但不能像列清单一样地把所有景物都写下来,要抓住特点,有重点地写。最后,要说的是:不管写什么景物都要写出自己的真情实感。

描写景物开头

在文章的开头,运用景物描写,为文中所写的人和事渲染环境、提供背景,能给人以美好清新的印象。写景的内容,可以是天气情况、自然风光、建筑设施,可以是动景静景、远景近景、美景劣景、大景小景等。小朋友们都爱好景物,也最喜欢写景,这种开头,会一下子抓住读者,有助于增强读者的阅读兴趣。

当然,开头运用景物描写,要注意三个方面:一是写景的文字不能过多,不能一写到景物,就没完没了,无始无终,结果,景物写了很多,显得头大身子小,文章不匀称;二是要重点突出,主要景物多写一些,次要景物点一下即可,不能样样都写,结果都没有写好;三是写景是为人和事服务的,要与文中所写的人和事有密切关联,景与人事不能脱节,更不能把景物写成了文章的累赘。

请看下面这个开头

瓦蓝瓦蓝的天,丝丝缕缕的轻云如烟般缭绕,夕阳的光辉洒满田间,万条金线接天浮动,玫瑰色的光彩,映在绿得发黑的菜上,叶面上像抹了一层油,亮闪闪的。

这段文字,是习作《路过天堂》的开头,用的全是景物描写,主要是仰视之景,夕阳下的美景,蓝天、轻云、夕照的光彩、碧绿的菜叶,渲染了美好的情境,为写“我”下文“路过天堂寨”提供了优美的环境背景。读后有身临其境之感,令人心驰神往,显然是一个好的开头。

三、景物的描写手法。

所谓描写景物,通常指描写自然景物,但也包括对社会景物即社会环境的描写。

景物描写是小学生作文的重要内容。景物描写的内容十分广泛。山川大地,风雷云电,春夏秋冬,清晨午夜……以及这些事物的交错组合就构成了景物描写的对象。写作的目的则因文而异。有的在歌颂祖国山河的壮丽,有的则借写景而抒发某种感情。

要写好景物,应该注意以下几个方面

一、抓住景物的特征。

对所写景物认真观察,抓住特点,是写好这类文章的前提。而能否抓住景物的特点,关键在于作者细心的观察,并将观察所得铭记于心。正所谓静观默察,烂熟于心。因此,要求在观察中,善于抓住不同季节、不同时间、不同地区中景物呈现出的颜色、形态、声响、气味等方面特有的变化,善手通过眼、耳、鼻、舌、身等感官去观察、体会。这样,才能抓住景物特征加以描写。为此,一要注意不同季节的特征。一年有春、夏、秋、冬四季,季节的变化会引起景物的变化。每个季节的景物都有各自的特征;二要注意时间变化的特征。有的景物在不同的时间往往各有特征。白昼、夜晚、早晨、黄昏都为景物涂上了不同的色彩;三要注意气候不同的特征。同一景物在雨中、风中、雾中、雪中所展现的景观是不同的,四要注意不同的地理特征。南方、北方、城市、乡村、高原、平地,不同的地域,有着各自不同的景物特征。

二、要选好观察的角度。

选好观察的角度,就要先确立好观察点。要根据表达的需要运用固定立足点和变换立足点观察景物的方法,或远观、或近觑、或仰视、或俯瞰。同时,要注意观察的顺序,是由近及远,还是由远而近?是由上而下,还是由下而上?这是指空间的变换。还可以时间的变化或游览的先后为顺序。这样,所描写的景物才不会杂乱无章。总之,要做多角度、多侧面的描写。

三、安排好描写的顺序。

景物描写的顺序一般分为空间顺序和时间顺序两种

空间顺序--一般是取一个固定的观察点,按照视线移动的顺序依次写出各个位置上的景物。还有一种空间顺序,不取固定的观察点,而随着观察者位置的转移来描写景物,这叫做游览顺序。

时间顺序--同一个地方在不同的时间里,其景物是有变化的,按一定的时段依次写来,可以表现出景物的丰富多姿,使人产生美的感受。时段有长短之分,长时段如春、夏、秋、冬,短时段如晨、午、暮、夜。选用哪一种时间顺序,应视描写对象的特点而定,

四、要融情于景,表达主观感受。

国学大师王国维曾断言:“一切景语皆情语”。景物是客观的,而写景之人则是有情的,作者对任何景物,总会有自己的感情。没有感情色彩的景物只不过是苍白美丽的“躯壳”,难以达到感人的目的;同时,观察、描摹景物的过程本身也是写作主观感受的过程,因此,要在写景的字里行间,自然渗透感情,寓情于景。做到情景交融,物我一体。写景贵有情,在描绘客观景物的同时,要把自己的喜怒哀乐等思想感情融注到作品中去,使读者产生共鸣,进而给读者带来愉悦之情,陶醉之情,将读者带入特定的情景之中,受到美的熏陶,获得美的享受。

五、运用动静结合的手法。

只写静景,很容易使文章呆滞,而只写动景,又可能失去稳定。只有将静态描写景物形态特征和动态描写利于传神的长处结合起来,所绘景物才会具体、生动,给读者留下深刻的印象。

描写景物需要绘形、绘色、绘声,仿佛使人看得见、摸得着、听得到,这就需要尽可能选用那些生动形象的语言。因而要善于找到最能表现景物特征的动词和一些恰当的形容词,尤其要善于运用比喻、拟人等修辞方法,但要注意不能堆砌词藻。

一、注意段首句式的变化

图画作文的段首句往往是"如图所示"或"从图画中可以看出"之类,下面为经常采用的一些句型:

As is shown in the picture, 和As can be seen from the picture,是经常能看到的首句话,但是模板迹象过于明显,所以应该稍加升级,比如添加一些结构和修饰语:

It is of considerable interest to see in the bizarre picture that…

当然还可以添加一些引出话题的句子:

No one can skip the issue of…(图画表现出来的意图)。Just as what is illustrated in the above drawing,…

二、适当用被动替换主动,这样能更客观地反映事实。

句子开头不要总是用we / I (比如写结尾时不用we should pay attention to而用Attent

ion should be paid to. ) 举个经典结尾的例子:It is, therefore, high time that some applicable approaches were implemented by the service industry like that. By doing so,its competitive edge will be sharpened effectively。

篇6:英语写作技巧

全文共 1545 字

+ 加入清单

内容

1、你想说的最重要的事是什么?如果已经说出来了,在草稿中找出这段话,并在句子下面划线。如果还没有说出来,现在就写。

2、文章里所写的每件事都同主旨相关吗?哪个部分你不需要?如果你写的是当你在银行实习时,意识到自己宁愿成为一名核物理学家,那么坐公交上班这段话就显得十分没有必要了。

3、你做到具体化了吗?如果发现自己只是泛泛而谈,那么就把一般变为具体。

4、你有没有思考并回答读者最想问的问题?

5、你的文章是否像你的人?有没有在陈述自己时过于正式?是不是过于随意?寻找一种适合主题的语调(乏味的语调会毁了一个好故事)。

6、文章中最令你满意的是什么?

7、文章中最令你不满的是什么?哪一部分还不对头?要使它和文章其他部分一样好,你能做什么?

趣味

1、你开头的第一个句子能否抓住读者的注意力?如果你是读者,它能吸引你吗?“我14岁时,我家搬到了吉隆坡”是否同“他们把大货车开过来,上面装着各种各样的箱子。我的东西被他们无情地扔进里面,直到空荡荡的房间里只剩下我一个人。我们又搬家了。”一样吸引人?

2、你的文章是否需要更多的细节?举例来说,如果你已经写了在你志愿服务的野营地里,孩子们教会你“欣赏生活中简单的事情”,你还需要再多写一到两句话,详细描述一下这种教育意味着什么。

3、结尾能让读者们感觉文章已经写完了吗?结束语听上去像是结束语吗?在一篇写自己从错误中汲取教训的文章里,一个总结性的概括,不如某些发自内心的简单写法具有感染力。

4、大声地读你的文章,相信自己的耳朵。你认为这篇文章有趣吗?如果自己都觉得它令人厌倦,想想读者的感觉!

清楚

1、是否每个段落在文章中都有明确的位置?如果不是,就需要做些删除或改写一下。

2、你的读者能轻松地跟上你的思绪吗?有没有需要填充的裂缝或者需要删除的不必要的迂回?

3、有没有一些词或句子显得粗糙或模棱两可?如果有,删除模棱两可的词,加工粗糙的地方。

简洁

1、你的文章到底是从哪里正式开始的?能否把那些引导性的句子删除,直接进入主题?

2、有没有和主题无关的细节?如果有,删掉它们。

3、是否用了很多的词语,其实用一到两个词就可以完全代替?“我要告诉你们的非常重要的一点是,我申请的只有贵校一所学校,那是我从童年开始形成的一生的渴望。”这是一个无比冗长的句子,不如改为:“我只申请了艾莫利大学,因为我一直都想进这所学校。”记住,在一篇短文里,每一个字都要有意义。

用法和风格

1、你把所有的旧词、过时的词都删掉了吗?

2、你用没用主动语态和动作性很强的动词?

3、对句子的长度和结构进行过修改吗?

4、有没有用到描述性的词和比喻的手法?

5、是否避免了使用空洞的修饰语,如“very”,“rather”,“somewhat”等等?

6、如果使用了缩略语,它们是否和文章的风格统一?省略号的位置对不对?

语法

1、主语同动词单复数是否一致?

2、代词与先行词是否一致?

3、代词指代明确吗?(尤其要注意的是“this”和“that”)

4、修饰词的位置是否靠近被修饰词?

5、有没有悬垂结构或放错位置的修饰语?

6、动词的形式同时态及语态一致吗?

7、有没有逗号重叠的情况?

8、有没有发现不完整的句子?

标点符号

1、标点符号是否明确地划分开句子结构?

2、所用的标点符号,如省略号、冒号、波折号、分号、逗号、括号、连字号、引号等是否正确?

3、是否尽量不使用惊叹号?(合适的词语比惊叹号在表达上更为有效)

技巧

1、大写字母是否用得正确并前后呼应?

2、数字使用是否相互对应?(十以前的数字最好用拼写的方式,十以后的数字用符号代替。如果搞不清楚,就全用符号表示。)

3、每个词都拼写正确吗?

4、因篇幅所限需要分开的词分得是否正确?

5、你的文章是否打印得整洁?版式是否吸引人?

较对

1、有没有丢掉的词或行?

2、有没有单词错误?

篇7:英语六级写作方法技巧

全文共 3491 字

+ 加入清单

英语是一种语言,从语言学角度来看,学生在掌握一定数量的词汇与语法知识后,就要用来表达自己的思想、见解,这些落实到纸面上就是英语写作。为提高大家的英语写作能力和技巧,下面小编为大家带来英语六级写作方法技巧,欢迎大家学习!

英语六级写作方法技巧:

方法一:叙述法

叙述法发展段落主要是按照事物本身的时间或空间的排列顺序,通过对一些特有过渡连接词的使用,有层次分步骤地表达主题句的一种写作手段。用这种方法展开段落,作者能够清楚连贯地交待事物的本末,从而可以使读者可以清晰、完整地理解文章的含义,例如:,

In the flat opposite, a woman heard the noise outside. When she looked out through the window, she discovered that her neighbor was threatened by someone. She immediately called the police station. In answer to the call, a patrol police car arrived at the scene of the crime quickly. Three policemen went inside the flat at once, and others guarded outside the building to prevent anyone from escaping.,

这段是按照事物发展的先后顺序,叙述从发现案情、报警、到警察赶到、包围现场的过程。全文脉络清晰,叙述的层次感强,结构紧凑。

常用于叙述法中的过渡连接词有:first, an the beginning, to start with, after that, later, then, afterwards, in the end, finally等。

方法二:列举法

作者运用列举法,是通过列举一系列的论据对topic sentence中摆出的论点进行广泛、全面地陈述或解释,列举的顺序可以按照所列各点内容的相对重要性、时间、空间等进行。,

Yesterday was one of those awful days for me when everything I did went wrong. First, I didnt hear my alarm clock and arrived late for work. Then, I didnt read my diary properly and forgot to get to an important meeting with my boss. During the coffee break, I dropped my coffee cup and spoilt my new skirt. At lunch time, I left my purse on a bus and lost all the money that was in it. After lunch, my boss was angry because I hadnt gone to the meeting. Then I didnt notice a sign on a door that said "Wet Paint" and so I spoilt my jacket too. When I got home I couldnt get into my flat because I had left my key in my office. So I broke a window to get in and cut my hand.

根据本段主题句中的关键词组everything I did went wrong,作者列举了8点内容,分别由first, then, during the coffee break, after lunch time等连接词语引出,使得该文条理清楚、脉络分明、内容连贯。

常用于列举法的过渡连接词有:for one thing , for another, finally, besides, moreover, one another , still another, first, second, also等。

方法三:重复法

句子的一部分反复出现在段落中,这就是重复法。它往往造成一种步步紧逼的气氛,使文章结构紧凑,有感染力。比如:

Since that time, which is far enough away from now, I have often thought that few people know what secrecy there is in the young, under terror. I was in mortal terror of the young man who wanted my heart and liver; I was in mortal terror of my interlocutor with the iron leg; I was in mortal terror of myself, from whom an awful promise had been extracted; --

该段中反复应用了I was in mortal terror of …我经常处于恐怖之中。

以上, 我们结合具体文章讨论了展开段落的几种方法。在实际写作中,我们往往不必拘泥于一种写作方法,而是将若干方法穿插在一起,使文章有声有色。

方法四:因果分析法

在阐述某一现象的段落中,常采用因果分析法。例如:

The role of women in todays society is changing. One reason is that women have begun to assert themselves as independent people through the womens movement. Also, women are aware of the alternatives to staying at home. Another reason is that increasing numbers of women who enter new fields and interests serve as role models for other women. Moreover, men are becoming more conscious of the abilities of women and have begun to view their independence positively.

本段中,主题句提出了一种社会现象,推展句则对产生这种现象的原因作出各种解释。 常用于因果分析法的连接词有:because, so, as a result等。

方法五:对比法

将同类的事物按照某种特定的规则进行比较分析是一种常用的思维方法。通过对比,更容易阐述所述对象之间的异同和优缺点,例如:

The heart of an electronic computer lies in its vacuum tubes, or transistors. Its electronic circuits work a thousand times faster than the nicer cells in the human brain. A problem that might take a human being a long time to solve can be solved by a computer in one minute.

在这段文字上, 作者为了突出电子计算机运行速度之快,首先将它与人脑进行了比较, "-- a thousand times faster than --" ;而后,又将这一概念具体到了 "a problem"上,通过对比使读者从 "-- a long time -- in one minute"上有更加直观的认识。

常用于对本法或比较法上的过渡连接词有:than, compared with等。

篇8: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。

俗话说“千里之行始于足下”。英语书面表达能力的形成不是一日之功,必须从平时的课堂学习一点一滴抓起,持之以恒。

一篇优秀的英语作文在内容和语言两方面应是一个统一体,任何一方面的欠缺都会直接影响到作文的质量。然而,很多考生在写作中或者由于粗心大意,或者由于基本功不扎实而经常出现名词不变复数、第三人称单数不加s,前后不一致,以及时态语态、句子完整性等方面的错误

1. 审题不清

如2004年中考作文要求写一项最喜欢的课外活动,有些考生将作文的主题定位为“我最喜欢的活动”,偏离了“一项、课外活动”这一主题。依据作文的评分原则,若文章内容不切题,则不管语言如何规范、用词如何准确,都会被判为零分。

2.拼写错误

拼写是考生应该具备的最起码的基本功,但在考生的作文中却经常能发现很多拼写错误。有拼写错误的作文肯定会被酌情扣分,而且有大量拼写错误存在的作文不仅体现出语言基本功差,同时也直接影响内容的表达,通常会降低作文的档次。

3.名词单复数问题

误 my father and my mother is all teacher。

正 my father and my mother are both teachers。

篇12:关于提高英语写作能力的方法

全文共 1772 字

英语教学中,培养学生听、说、读、写的能力是相辅相成的。经常练习写作,可以巩固和发展听说能力 ,还可以促进阅读能力的提高。写作能促使学生勤复习、多思考。通过对一词一句反复推敲,有助于提高使用 语言的准确性。学习用英语写作是培养英语思维能力的重要途径之一,有了一定的英语思维能力,英语学习就 能产生一个相应的飞跃。因此,在高中阶段指导、培养学生写英语作文是不容等闲视之的。

用英语解释生词,为学生打好写作基础。教师应创造语言环境,通过耳濡目染、潜移默化,培养用英语思 维的习惯。在教每课的单词和词组时,要尽量用学生学过的单词、词组进行解释。刚开始时,可由教师用英语 解释生词,后来可让学生根据汉语释意,用自己学过的单词、词组解释。这样,经过一段时间的训练,学生的 英语思维能力就会有所提高,为英语写作打下较好的基础。在作文时,如果不知道某个东西的英语表达方式而 又无词典可查,这时学生就会用其释义来代替,如用“a person who nakes clothes”来代替“atailor”, 这虽不完全符合英语语言习惯,但对初学写作的高中生来说还是值得鼓励的。

通过缩写和改写课文,培养学生的英语概括能力。缩写课文会激励学生去认真钻研课文内容,有助于加深 学生对课文的理解,提高学生归纳总结和进行简要表达的能力。缩写课文允许改动原意,不允许删去主要内容 。缩写课文一般应该用自己的话来写,不能只停留在拼凑原文的词句上,也不要逐句、逐段照原文去改写。这 些均通过示例让学生明白和掌握,并在实践中让他们仔细加以体会。改写课文可以培养学生举一反三的语言表 达能力,熟练掌握英语表达方法,促使学生去钻研、去思考,调动学习的积极性,学生把学过的知识运用到实 际中去,这对于提高英语水平大有裨益。改写,除了我们通常所说的句子、段落的释义之外,还包括用其他体 裁改写整篇课文。如高中英语第一册第三课短剧“The Lost Necklace”可改写为记叙文。有的课文,如高中英 语第一册“The Blind Men And The Elephant”和第十课“At A Tailors Shop”等,就可以让学生改写成短 剧,并让他们在班上表演。有的课文故事是第三人称叙述的,如“The Footprint”,就可以让学生用第一人称 加以改写,使他们身临其境,自由发挥。这样可创造情景,促使他们“下笔如有神”。

以多题材、多形式的自由作文训练,加强意念功能的培养。经过一段时间的缩写和改写的笔头训练之后, 学生对写作有了一定的基础和兴趣,就可以放手让他们进行多种题材的自由作文训练,使学生在自由表达思想 和内心感受中,加强意念功能培养。(1) 练习写周记日记是培养学生英语自由写作能力的第一步。写周记日记 ,学生不受内容和经验的限制,可就熟悉的题材,充分发挥自己的想象力,自由表达。(2) 看图作文新颖活泼 ,能激发学生英语写作的积极性。可以用流传较广的传说、故事作图,让学生写记叙文。比如画几幅老鼠商议 给猫挂铃铛的图,让学生以“The cat and the bell”作文。也可画一幅漫画,让学生写简易议论文。如画一 幅之人向三个方向划一条小船,让学生写出情景加以评论,并命题。(3) 作文可由教师统一命题,也可由学生 自由命题。命题作文要注意先易后难,开始让学生写一些自己熟悉、易于表达的题材。如:“Our School”、 “My Family”、“A Letter To Somebody”、“ARepectable Teacher”、“Life In Summer Vacation”等。 在此基础上,提高一步,写一些较难的题目。如:My Idea, Money And Happiness等。刚开始练习命题作文写作 时,可让学生课外完成,规定交作文日期即可。经过一段时间后,可要求他们在课堂上完成,借以培养他们的 思考能力,提高快速写作的能力。

通过讲评帮助学生逐步掌握写作要领。作文批阅应与课堂讲评相结合,一方面在班上朗诵优秀作文,说明 其好在哪里。另一方面要分析各种典型错误,尤其是汉式英语,务必通过讲译,使学生进一步了解错误产生的 原因,以及如何纠正。为了加深印象,避免讲评中烦琐指点,最好对各种错误进行分类整理,教师应注意分类 的合理性和系统性。

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

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

英语写作注意两点

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

1.认真地看两遍题目,包括提示,全面了解写作要求。

2.理清思路,确定体裁、框架结构和内容。

二、用英语进行思维英语写作时必须排除汉语思维的干扰。

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

最后一个月如何训练英语写作

1.重视增加阅读量是提高英语写作的途径之一。

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

2.在教师的指导下,平时应勤写多练。

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

英文写作“四步走”

由于时间限制,考试时必须在所限定的时间内完成英语作文。英语作文步骤如下:

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

2)考虑好想写多少句子,该用哪些动词和词组等。

3)边写边思考内容的连贯性,语言和句子的准确性。

4)写完后一定要再细看一遍。

主要体裁作文写作技巧

(一)写提示议论文应考虑的几点:

1.文章开头,能依据提示确立主题句(topic)阐明观点或看法。

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

3.归纳总结,首尾呼应。

(二)看图作文应考虑的几点:

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

2.确定短文须用的时态和该用的人称。

3.确定体裁(说明文还是记叙文),接着用简洁的语句描述图片或图表大意。

4.根据图片或图表大意议论。

篇15:校园课本剧本的写作基础

全文共 2069 字

+ 加入清单

小编认为,现在初中学生以编演课本剧作为一种实践锻炼方式,是对于学生语 文素质的提高是大有裨益的,是符合“大语文”教学观要求的,为此小编整理了关于校园课本剧的写作基础。希望更多同仁能 够参与其中,共同促进课本剧的发展。

首先我们要知道什么是课本剧。

课本剧是学校师生共同编写、排练的以所学课文、学校生活为素材,通过创 设情景,角色模拟,展示升华课文主题思想和故事情节,反映学校生活、学习的 一种话剧表演形式。它对于活跃班级文化生活、寓教于乐,培养学生的创新精 神和参与能力,提高他们全面深刻地学习理解、感悟掌握课文内容的自主想象创 造力,有着不可替代的作用。如今,在推进语文课改,推行素质教育的小学语文 课堂,课本剧表演正独领风骚,成为一道亮丽的风景。

怎样编演课本剧?

编演课本剧选哪一 篇?怎样编?谁演什么角色合适?人物性格有何特点?等等一系列问题。

编演过程,对学生语文知识的要求是多方面的。剧本不是课文,不再有大量 的叙述性语言,除了有简单的舞台说明外,大部分是对话。对话语言要规范,就 要求改写剧本时用词要准确、句子要完整;表演时语音要准确,对话就要与人物 性格相符合。这些都需要学生有较扎实的听说读写能力。

因此,为了演好某个角 色,演员对其中的每一句话,甚至是一个眼神都是反复推敲、试演,在这个过程 中,其语文基础知识自然也得到了训练和提高。如编演《羚羊木雕》,人物语言 都很有个性,奶奶虽只一句话,但若没有认真揣摩、分析,其两难境地是很难表 现得那样传神的。

编演课本剧同时又是一种创造性活动。 改编是一种创造, 表演更是一种创造。 “一千个观众就有一千个哈姆雷特”, 每个学生在阅读课文时都有自己独到的理 解。改编后进入表演,根据实际,结合当代学生的一些特点不断调整、 充实,进行再创造,从而使人物的动作、表情、对话等更具个性化,使得形象更 为丰满。如《羚羊木雕》结尾,当“我”和“万芳”和好时,如用《友谊地久天 长》的背景音乐来烘托等,就是一种创造性,将会取得很好的演出效果。

戏剧是一门文学,其生命力的源泉就是生活。编演课本剧就是用戏剧语言辅 以动作等来推动情节发展,进而反映生活的。这就需要学生将戏中人物与自己的 生活经验相结合,去把握其性格并注意对话语言的表达技巧。表演中的动作也是 如此。要具备了迁移知识到实际生活的能力, 具备了对生 活的观察、分析能力。

编演本剧亲身感受人物的生活、用心体验他说的每一句话,就更直接、更感 性地理解了人物, 不知不觉中被人物身上所具有的品质、 精神所感染。

课本剧的选材 1、 课文内容 2、 学校生活 3、编写课本剧 4、安排好课本剧的结构

安排好课本剧的结构 创作课本剧要吃透课文的主题思想和故事情节,根据课文故事情节

据人物的出场顺序,创造性地设计好人物的对白、动作、表情。(后两 者可在“对白”的前面或后面用提示语注明。)

剧本开头要写明剧中的人物(给剧中人物起好一个简洁的代名称)

安排好场景(布景、道具的设计制作及其摆放位置)

依据课文内容情节的发生顺序,创造性地让一个个人物出场表演。人物 对白不要机械套用课文原话, 要在不改变课文原意的前提下, 创编更生动、 幽默, 更具有个性化的人物对白,剧本的尾声一定要达到创作的最高潮,以利于揭示升 华表演主题,收到应有的体验教育效果。

剧本的尾部要注明“该剧据第*册中学《语文》同名课文改编”字样和 创作组、导演组成员和扮演剧中人物的队员名单。

明确编演步骤及要求 课本剧的编演,要有一定步骤,编演程序分为选、读、编、演(包括排练、 演出)、评五个步骤,其中每步相应地有具体要求。

选 要选较生动的、学生感兴趣的记叙性课文,如《摆渡》、《花的话》、 《皇帝的新装》等。所选课文不一定要很长(如选《蚊子和狮子》),长课文也 不一定要全演,可选其中一个层次(如《古代英雄的石像》)。无论长短,所选 课文要求情节性要强,人物性格要鲜明。要改编课文,就必须对课文有深入理解,这就需要引导学生多读,研 读课文、推敲语言文字、体会人物情感,使其知背景、明主题、熟内容。只有清 楚这些,才能更好地体会揣摩人物富有个性的语言,才能更好地塑造人物形象。 因为人物的性格总是与特定的历史背景相联系,为表现主题服务的。

改编课本时,人物对话和舞台说明可适 当增删,还可做变动。但无论增删或变动,都既要适合于剧情发展及人物性格的 需要、为主题服务,又要适合舞台演出。

对课文里一些能突出人物性格的对话 及有关动作要在剧本里体现,注意突出其作用。

演 包括排练和演出。排练时,要注意全体学生语文素质的提高,可分为 多个小组,使学生人人都有参与活动的机会,各小组也可根据实际,对剧本稍作 修改。

演出时注意两点:

1.舞台布置及道具应从简,不能人为造成演出的难度。 如《摆渡》船可虚拟;《七根火柴》中熊熊燃烧的篝火,则可用几块泡沫裁成火 苗的形状,再涂上红、黄广告色,绘成火的样子即可。

2.人物对话的表演是重点,应掌握好语调、语气、速度、节奏等,最大程度地为突出人物性格、推动情节发 展服务。

篇16:关于应用文写作基础

全文共 1757 字

+ 加入清单

掌握应用文写作语言的特点,即语言的信实性、针对性、规范化和专门化下面是小编分享的关于应用文写作基础,欢迎阅读参考!

一、结构的含义和作用

1.掌握结构的含义应用文的结构,是运用材料以表现主题的有序安排,是客观事物条理性在文章中的反映,为文章的组织形式和内部构造。文章的结构具有两重含义:一是宏观结构,即文章的总体构思、大体框架;二是微观结构,即对文章的层次、段落、开头、结尾、过渡、照应和主次的具体设计。2.了解结构的作用结构好比文章的骨架,是安排文章的具体形式,是将材料化为文章的手段之二。结构是表现主题的手段,是准确表达主题的必由之路,也是引导读者领会文章思想内容的向导。写文章只有找到恰当完美的结构形式,才能把主题和材料组合在一起,形成一个完美有机的整体。其作用具体表现在:

(1)使文章言之有体。应用文大多有较固定的结构形态,它是人们在长期写作实践中经过选择,逐步找到的最适合表现某种内容的最佳形式,也称之为“程式”。如简报、书信和行政公文类文书,具有相当固定的惯用格式。

(2)使文章言之有序。合理安排文章结构,就是根据一定的思路,将零散的材料组织起来,使之眉目清楚地成为一个有机的整体。

(3)使文章言之有文。精心安排文章结构,可以增加文章的文采,从而增强其可读性。

二、安排结构的条件

1.了解思路的含义及思路与结构的关系

在文章结构的两重含义中,总体构思是具体设计的前提和基础。总体构思也就是人们常说的“言有序”,是指对材料的安排要有次序,这体现了作者的思路。思路是安排结构的条件。

1、思路的含义

思路是作者思维活动的路线,是作者在头脑中梳理、组织内容材料的过程和结果。它是作者对客观事物自身条理性的观察、理解。

作者思路清晰,结构必然有条不紊;作者思路不清晰,结构必然紊乱。经过选择的材料,只有经过合理的组织安排,使之条理化、系统化,组成一个有机的整体,才能准确鲜明地表现既定的主题。

2、思路与结构的关系

在写作构思阶段,作者的思维活动异常活跃。确立主题,选择好材料,并进而考虑如何表达主题和如何安排材料,由此逐渐形成一条清晰、连贯、独到的思维活动路线——思路。此时,文章的大体框架已在作者的头脑中“闪现”出来。等到作者用书面语言把思路表达出来时,文章的结构也就具体安排好了。因此,作者思路与文章结构的关系极为密切。具体表现为以下三点:

(1)思路是形成结构的基础和内核。结构是文章最主要的表现形式。要使结构完整、严谨、匀称,动笔前,就需要作者匠心独运,形成清晰、连贯并具独创性的思路,进而“外化”成纲目清晰、严谨周密的结构。但是,文章反映客观事物,决不是对其原始形态的简单搬抄和复制,而是在符合客观事物发展规律基础上的主观创造。因此,不同的作者。不同的文体有不同的思路。思路开阔而有创见,文章的结构就新颖独特;思路狭窄而落俗,会使文章的结构板滞僵死;思路紊乱,文章的条理就必然不清;思路松散,文章的结构就不可能严密紧凑。(2)结构是思路的体现和反映。结构是思路的外显形式和文字载体。思路严密清晰,文章结构才能完整、严谨、清晰,主题才能得以准确地表达;思路紊乱、疏漏和闭塞,文章则会逻辑混乱、言而无序、首尾不能圆合。

2.了解锻炼思路的基本要求及锻炼思路的方法

(1)注意思路的条理性和逻辑性,使之清晰、周密、连贯。清晰,指展开思路要有顺序、有层次,同时对材料要加以区分和归类。周密,指思路要周到、严密,没有疏漏和缺损,不要顾此失彼,自相矛盾。连贯,指思维活动过程及其表达不仅要注意外在的次序,而且要处理好各个意思之间存在的衔接、并列、转折、因果、总分等内在联系,做到气脉贯通、流畅。

(2)注意思路的灵活性、独创性,使之活跃、开阔、敏捷。活跃与开阔,是指思路的开展要打破思维定势,进行多向探索,使之灵活、新颖而富有个性。敏捷是指思路的展开、梳理直至成型这一过程应该灵敏、迅速,使文章结构紧凑、气势流转而顺畅。

(3)养成良好的思维习惯。一是养成有序思考问题的习惯,由浅入深、由表及里、由此及彼。二是加强逻辑思维能力的训练。应用写作主要靠逻辑思维,要遵循“提出问题——分析问题——解决问题”这一认识规律。

(4)写作前要通盘思考,立足于写作意图、目的和所用文体特点,确定如何起笔,主体分几个部分展开,怎样收尾。

篇17:英语写作教学方法

全文共 1902 字

+ 加入清单

英文写作是一种综合能力训练,临阵磨枪是不能取得好成绩的,也是不可取的,应该重视平时的英语作文训练。下面是小编帮大家整理的英语写作教学方法,希望大家喜欢。

高考英语作文占25分,有着不可忽视的比重,它足可以说明写作教学在高中英语教学中占有相当重要的位置。然而高考现状却不乐观,部分学生由于平时缺乏足够的训练,所以对英语写作要么感到无从下手,充满畏难情绪,胡乱写些英语单词或不着边际的句子充当字数,权作心理慰藉;要么用词不当,构句无章,错误频出,行文不流畅,表达不地道,无写作质量可言。如何提高学生的写作水平和促进写作教学呢?笔者认为应注意下列几个问题:

一、注重写作教学的基本训练阶段

语言教学最高层次是应用。英语属于结构语言,它有自己的基本句型、固定搭配、固定短语等,这些都是不可变的,要想在写作中用上它们,用好它们,必须加强这方面的基本训练。首先,加强五种基本句型结构教学。几乎所有的英语句型都是五种句型的扩大、延伸或变化,因此训练学生“写”就要抓住五种基本句型的训练,让他们把这五种基本句型记牢,不断运用。五种基本句型是:

(1)S+V;

(2)S+V+O;

(3)S+V+O+O;

(4)S+V+P;

(5)S+V+O+C。

五种基本句型虽然能表达一定的意思,但无法比较自由地表达思想,因此还必须对学生进一步进行扩句训练,在课堂上充分发挥学生的想像力,进行扩句练习。其次,加强句型教学,要对一些句子进行分析,增强他们利用各种句子进行一意多种表达的训练。再次,充分利用新教材中“巩固语言的练习,”对学生进行基本语感的训练。

二、注重写作训练的多样化

听、说、读、写四种技能是相互依赖的,说的能力有赖于听的能力,进而有助于写作。听是理解和吸收口头信息的手段。听和读是输入,只有达到足够的输入量,才能保证学生具有较好的说和写的输出能力。因此,在日常的教学中要注重写作训练的多样化。

首先,在Dialogue的教学中,除了听录音、对话、表演和编写相似的对话外,还要求学生把对话改写成一段短文,这样就要求学生在变成短文的过程中,注意时态、语态、人称和前后的逻辑关系,从而为写作打下基础。

其次,在Reading教学中,回答问题时要求学生必须用自己的语言,且人称、时态要做相应的变化,这样既能搞懂本意,又能用同义句表达,提高了表达能力。还要让学生用课文中的词组进行复述,学生复述课文不是件容易的事,既要把握课文中的重点,逻辑关系,又要用自己的语言把主要内容表达出来。这样既锻炼了他们组织篇章结构、句子与句子之间逻辑关系的能力,又提高了语言的精炼度,使自己的写作能力有了很快地提高。

再次,在“Listening”教学中,除了让学生听懂做完听力练习之外,还让他们把练习作为guide进行复述听力材料,有时还让他们写在作文本上。

三、注重写作训练的规范化

高中起始阶段的写作训练,培养学生的写作模式是非常重要的。我按教师用书上说明的写作步骤,即:①构思(讨论题目);②写提纲(理顺思想的逻辑关系);③起草(打草稿);④校订(检查错误,重新安排内容);⑤修改(定稿)。对学生进行写作模式的训练。这样看起来比较麻烦,但避免了反复,养成了好的写作习惯。再就是书写和文体格式要规范。严格要求学生正确、端正、熟练地书写字母、单词和句子,注意大小写和标点符号,养成良好的书写习惯。。同时对各种文体特点、格式要讲清楚,使学生熟悉规范的书面表达形式,用正确的标准评析和规范自己的书面表达。

四、注重教师的指导作用

教师批改是写作教学的有机组成部分,批改过程中,教师的指导作用就在于肯定学生的成绩,指出错误,给学生以恰当的评价。但在批改过程中,如果抓住学生的错误不放,有错必纠,改到最后,就变成了教师自己的作品;如果对错误视而不见,写得再多也收效甚微。我根据教学实践,对于新教材中的“有指导的写”的写作训练,规定学生限时写完,同桌、前后桌互相批改,重新行文,再上交。这样批改起来就非常轻松,而且典型错误,很容易找出,有利于讲评。对于新教材中的“自由写作”训练,我指导学生弄清主题,抓住要点,组词造句,安排好顺序,过渡到段落形成短文,多用熟悉的单词和句型,多用五种基本句型表达。然后让学生共同研究,互相评论写好的草稿,以便最后写出修改的稿子来,这就有助于减轻教师修改作业的负担,也有利于学生写作水平的提高。

总之,英文写作是一个学生综合能力的书面体现,是一个长期复杂的训练过程。因此,培养学生的写作能力不能一蹴而就,而要在平时从学生的实际水平出发,有目的、有计划、有要求、有检查、有反馈地进行,由易到难,循序渐进。只有这样,到高考时才能做到厚积薄发、思如泉涌、下笔如有神。

篇20:如何零基础学习英语写作

全文共 1114 字

+ 加入清单

学习英语写作之前先来看下练习写作对你的英文有什么样的帮助:

好处1、辅助提升口语语言组织力

好处2、提升语法

好处3、帮助背单词和句型。

了解到联系英语写作带来的好处后让我们来看看学习英语写作有哪些方法:

基础英语写作入门方法一:背单词

单词是英语写作的基本构成之一,拥有大量的词汇才能写出你想要的文章,背单词有很多方法用mp3在零碎的时间边听边背边写,还有单词前后缀记忆法等众多方法,只要掌握其中一种适合你的方法,就开始大量的充实你的词汇吧。

零基础英语写作入门方法二:语法

语法是将单词串联在一起变成文章的那根线,学习好语法是整个英语阅读的重中之重。推荐熟读语法俱乐部,同时搭配大量的阅读自己感兴趣的文章,在大量的语境中去领受感悟本书的妙处。

零基础英语写作入门方法三:长时间的练习

写日记,这是最简单最长久的写作练习你不需要有任何的准备,这是你会接触到最基础的写作练习,你可以写任何你感兴趣的事情,你要做的就是拿起笔和本子把自已生活上的点点滴滴用英文记录下来。下面就是我的第一篇英文日记!

"today i rest,i stayed at home.sister call me go to the mother.i want not go there,because i must go to the company .去领 clothes.刚刚上完课come back.at home i find my 皮 shoes.now 要穿皮shoes了,write 日记好搞笑,还可以写点english了,i believe 以后 i sure i会更好。”

大家可能会看不懂这篇文章。你可能会觉得很好,说老实话当我现回过头去看我以前的日记我看了也觉得很好笑。但这就是我的第一篇英文日记,我的英文写作就是从这里开始的。你会发现写得非常直白,简直就是中文翻译毫无语法可言。但没有关系每个人开始都是这样的。

在写日记的开始阶段,你可能会像我这样不知道怎么去写或跟本无法组织语言,你可以像我这样按自已大脑里中文的想法去写,把会的单词都写上去不会的就用中文代替。在这个阶段你更多的是在使用你所学的词汇,有时候你会觉得这样很好玩。每天坚持写一篇,慢慢的你会发现你用的中文越来越少了有时候整篇文章都可以用英文写出来,随着你英语学习的进度不断推进,你在写句子的时候你不会直译了,你开始吧语法考虑到你的语言组织里面去。

当你要表边一个句子又找不到这个单词的时候,这种映像会深深的印在你的脑海里,当你在收集单词时候你就会注意收集那些非常实用的单词了。你会背更多的单词因为你想终有一天我的整篇文章是用英文写的。对于初期的写作,我认为就是这样写吧,请注意兴趣的培养。
