今天,是一年一度的清明节,奶奶一个星期前就说要带我去祭祖,我天盼地盼终于盼来了。

Today is the Qingming Festival once a year, a week ago, grandma said to take me to worship, I hope to look forward to finally look forward to.

前年,是爷爷带我去祭祖的,所以,这次是奶奶带我去。在通往祭祖的路上,奶奶显得格外严肃,平时那个幽默风趣的奶奶消失得无影无踪了。淡蓝色的小野花,纯金色的油菜花,碧绿色的的小草儿,神气十足的竹子``````给这幅通向祭祖的这幅“图画’’点缀上了一种别具风味的感觉,令人只可以表达出一种严肃的表情。

Two years ago, is the grandfather took me to the ancestors, so, this is my grandmother took me to the. On the way to worship their ancestors, grandma is particularly serious, usually the humorous she disappeared Not the least trace was found.. The pale blue flowers, pure golden rape flowers, green grass of the small, put on airs to this piece of bamboo and so on to worship the "picture with a unique flavor of feeling, it can only express a serious expression.

篇2:2024初中英语作文写作技巧分析

全文共 2008 字

+ 加入清单

书面表达是近几年初中英语中考的重要题型,是一种反映学生表达、传递信息和解决实际问题的重要的语言测试手段,同时也是用于测试学生的语言交际能力和语言知识活用能力的一项综合性试题。《英语课程标准》对各个年级学生“写”的技能提出了明确目标,它要求学生具有较高的书面语言表达能力。然而,目前初中英语教学的书面表达相对滞后,学生的写作水平提高甚微,一提起写作学生们就犯愁,甚至一字不写,有的干脆放弃。写一篇像样的英语作文对80%的学生来说是“难于上青天”。究其原因是多方面的。学生方面:(1)汉语影响、生词造句;(2)词汇贫乏、搭配不当;(3)句型误用、语法不通;(4)信息不全、条理紊乱。因此,笔者结合新教材的内容,在教学中探索了学生写作训练的方法。

一、积累词汇

初中学生在阅读理解方面最大的障碍就是词汇量的缺乏,而扩大词汇量绝非死记硬背就能做到。最有效的方法就是大量接触各种不同体裁的英语文章,利用“在句中记,在文中记”的方法来积累词汇。因此我们指导学生依据英语报刊的特点,按栏目、话题、题材、体裁归类收集常用词,将出现频率较高的常用词汇积累到单词本子上,查字典写例句,初步学会这些单词的运用,放在身边,利用零散时间反复记忆,加强印象。还要求学生给出与单词有关的同义、近义、反义和词形相似的词,使词汇量得到最大限度的复现。如:反义词appear/disappear, crowded/uncrowded,polite/impolite/rude.词形相似的词except/expect,chance/change/challenge.这样,通过大量的词汇练习不仅仅能有效地积累词汇,还为组句打下了基础,同时还能训练学生的发散性思维和总结、归纳、比较的能力,为学生正确使用词句奠定了良好的基础。

二、活用词句

当学生有了一定的词汇量的时候,教师在教学中可以采用先易后难的方法,让学生用简单的词组成句子,再以句子的构成作为学生进行写作训练的起点,引导学生从对单个句型的掌握,逐渐过渡到多种句型的混用,直到学生能连贯自如地表达思想。一句多译,句型转换,是书面表达能力的关键。总的来说,教师在平时的教学中要将日常生活中经常出现的词、句作为材料让学生训练,使学生乐于接受,轻松完成,享受成功感。

例如:以study为中心组成句子。

I study in No.3 Middle School.I study very hard.My sister studies in the same school.But she studies harder than me.等等。

三、创设情景

例如,学生举行运动会,开“生日聚会”,以“A sports meeting”和“My birthday party”为语境,让学生在活动中仔细观察,亲身体验,然后试着用自己所学的语言知识,表达“A sports meeting”和“My birthday party”这些话题。在我们新教材的每个单元中,都设有写作训练题,它们用英语设置语境,用英语提示内容,这些写的练习,与我们平时用汉语给语境、用英语完成段落的方式相比,更为理想。当然,教师在设立语境话题时要与学生的水平和能力相适应,应从简到难,从浅到深进行。否则,学生会无从下笔,久而久之,他们会失去信心。

四、注重听、说和阅读的培养

在英语写作中听、说、读、写应同步发展。写作是一种语言输出形式,只有语言输入大于语言输出,语言输出才有可能。英语写作训练作为英语综合能力训练之一,是与英语的听说读不可分割的,它们是相互影响、相互作用的有机统一体,必须注重听、说、读、写能力的同步发展。

比如笔者实施多年的“五分钟课前演讲”:在上正课前五分钟里,要学生用英语讲述一个故事(积累素材);或者课前朗读一篇短小精 的文章,让大家课后模仿;或者就大家平时关心的话题写一个发言稿或演讲稿进行课前发言;或者让学生自立主题,围绕自己喜欢的主题写一段话。这种课前训练取得了很好的效果。

五、写英文日记

要养成记英语日记勤练笔的习惯。经常用英语记日记等于天天在练笔,这无疑是提高英语写作行之有效的好办法。在记日记时,不要总是用简单句,要有意识地用一些好的词组、句型和复合句等,使文句更优美生动。对一些所给情景写的文章,写好后要对照一些范文,找出差距,然后再去练习,不仅能促使学生及时巩固所学的知识,还能锻炼他们的恒心和学习毅力,同时对提高英语作文也是很有帮助的。只有这样,学生才能通过多练习提高英语写作水平。

总之,学生英语写作水平的提高不是一朝一夕的事,英语写作能力培养的训练方法也是多方面的,因此需要我们英语教师在教学工作中不断探索、不断研究,总结出一些更富有创新活力的英语写作方法。鼓励学生平时要多积累语素材,要求他们坚持长期写作训练,做到善于思考、勤于训练、勇于探究,充分发挥学生的潜力。久而久之,学生的写作水平就会有大幅度的提高。

我有一个非常严厉的英语老师我的英语老师姓郝,中等个,戴一副近视眼镜平时她一头如波浪线一样的美发,秀美且整洁,非常漂亮。

每天的英语课总有意象不道的知识,但是也有如水一样多的作业。我认为老师是为我们好,为了提高学习成绩,为了拿着一份满意的分数,为了打好英语的基础。老师您辛苦了,您劳累了。

老师您知道吗?记得初一上册,我是一个错单词很多小女孩,有一次您找我谈话,对我教育告诉我记单词的方法,通过和您与我的谈话启发了我,与现在相比我的错单词是越来越少,奥秘也一点一滴积累。老师我谢谢您!

其实每次您布置的作业避免很多。也会遭遇许多同学的默默言辞,但是我明白您是有您的道理的,您也为我们花了不少时光,您也为我们操出了几根银丝。

在我心中有一支永不熄灭的蜡烛,永远燃烧着生命之火,永远都充满着生机与活力,这支蜡烛是不是很像在我们身边的一位很值得我们敬佩的人呢?他在课上给我们讲做人的道理;在课后是我们的益友,如果同学遇到不明白的问题,她还会耐心地教导我们,没错,他就是我们的老师,“蜡烛时刻在提醒着我们,要处处为他人着想。”这也许是老师常说的吧!

一年了,老师曾为了我们掉过多少“珍珠”?而我们呢?却时常惹她生气,心中真是难过,也很后悔:我,一名中学生,没有全身心地努力。老师,我想对您说:“您为我们操劳,任劳任怨;您带我们进入知识的海洋,在那里遨游,使我们懂得书中的乐趣;您精心备课,与我们一起品味书中美妙的午餐;您如好朋友似的关切我们;是您,是您,还是您!您像一根红烛,为后辈奉献出所有的光和热!您的品质和精神,可以用两个字来形容那就是——燃烧!不停的燃烧!您像一只会说话的小鸟,来为我们讲课,是那么得丰富多彩,每一个章节都仿佛在我面前打开了一扇窗户,让我看到了一个斑斓的新世界……

老师谢谢您!

millions of liters of water every day.

Do you know how does the water come to your home? It travels through water

pipes. Some are long and wide but some are short and narrow. Then the water

travels through the water pipes to the reservoirs. Then it travels through the

water pipes to the river and to the special factories (we call water plants)

that purify the water. When the water is purified, we can drink it. Please don’t

Unlike Martin Luther King’s, my dreams are fair and plain, and there are

many of them. I have a dream from the first time I sit in a car—I want to

drive.

Driving is like running without foot, racing without strength. It’s the

most meaningful way to meet human being’s desire of “faster”. When driving, I

have to put all my spirit to. Operating a car at ease will cost years of

experience.

Driving will take me to my wanting destination, no matter it rains or snows

or winds. I never am afraid of shoes wet, umbrella broken or ears frozen. A car

is rather like a moving house, which protects me completely and helps me rush

directly to the aim hanging ahead. That suits my nature perfectly: love to take

risks conservatively. A smooth ride in a good car is an enjoyable satisfaction.

Seeing rows of trees moving backward rapidly, a feeling of stepping forward will

fill fully in my mind. With music hovering, breeze blowing, my soul flies in the

air.

I was always sick when took a ride of a car, especially when I was young.

Father told me that a driver would never have carsick. That may be one of the

important reasons for me to desire driving.

This summer I am going to learn driving and get my car license. The dream

with all my heart will follow the promise it had made.

The qingming (Pure Brightness) Festival is one of the 24 seasonal division points in China, falling on April 4-6 each year. After the festival, the temperature will rise up and rainfall increases. It is the high time for spring plowing and sowing. But the qingming Festival is not only a seasonal point to guide farm work, it is more a festival of commemoration.

The qingming Festival sees a combination of sadness and happiness.

This is the most important day of sacrifice. Both the Han and minority ethnic groups at this time offer sacrifices to their ancestors and sweep the tombs of the diseased. Also, they will not cook on this day and only cold food is served.

The Hanshi (Cold Food) Festival was usually one day before the qingming Festival. As our ancestors often extended the day to the qingming, they were later combined.

On each qingming Festival, all cemeteries are crowded with people who came to sweep tombs and offer sacrifices. Traffic on the way to the cemeteries becomes extremely jammed. The customs have been greatly simplified today. After slightly sweeping the tombs, people offer food, flowers and favorites of the dead, then burn incense and paper money and bow before the memorial tablet.

In contrast to the sadness of the tomb sweepers, people also enjoy hope of Spring on this day. The qingming Festival is a time when the sun shines brightly, the trees and grass become green and nature is again lively. Since ancient times, people have followed the custom of Spring outings. At this time tourists are everywhere.

People love to fly kites during the qingming Festival. Kite flying is actually not limited to the qingming Festival. Its uniqueness lies in that people fly kites not during the day, but also at night. A string of little lanterns tied onto the kite or the thread look like shining stars, and therefore, are called "gods lanterns."

The qingming Festival is also a time to plant trees, for the survival rate of saplings is high and trees grow fast later. In the past, the qingming Festival was called "Arbor Day". But since 1979, "Arbor Day" was settled as March 12 according to the Gregorian calendar.
