(阅读材料)

Almost everyone knows that water covers three-fourths of the earths surface. Most of it, however, is in the oceans and is too salty to drink. Also, some of it is frozen and cannot be used. In fact, less than one percent is left for the use of people, animals and plant life. All through history men have tried to build their homes near the sources of fresh water. Now fresh water is becoming scarce, but more and more is needed because of the increasing number of people in the world. Some industries also use large amounts of fresh water in the production of things such as steel, petroleum, paper and rubber and so on. Scientists estimate that the need for fresh water will have doubled by the year 2003. If they are correct, we must find new ways of saving it or producing it. Some nations have worked on the problem and are already sharing their information with others. They are trying to keep their rivers from becoming polluted. Deep wells are also being dug, and rain water is being collected in huge artificial lakes. In one way or another, they hope to provide enough water to satisfy the needs of their people.

参考范文

With the worldwide increase of population, more and more water is needed. Meanwhile,the water sources are getting polluted by human beings in one way or another. Some nations are taking measures to solve this problem. They even communicate with each other hoping to find better ways to save and produce water to meet the needs of their people.

随着世界范围内的人口增长,越来越需要更多的水。与此同时,水源被污染,人类以一种方式或另一种方式。一些国家正在采取措施来解决这个问题。他们甚至相互沟通希望能找到更好的方法来保存并生成水来满足人民的需要。

On a personal level, to solve the problem with fresh water, both the government and inpiduals should make every effort. For example, for the government, it is urgent to make detailed laws that require businesses and inpiduals to stop polluting the environment and to save water while it is not necessarily used. Besides, education should be offered to all the citizens to raise their awareness of the importance of protecting environment and saving water. As inpiduals, we need to take action to play our own part in our everyday life.

在个人层面上,用淡水来解决这个问题,政府和个人都应该尽一切努力。例如,对于政府来说,迫在眉睫的是做出详细的法律,要求企业和个人停止污染环境,节约用水,而不一定是使用它。除此之外,教育应该提供给所有的公民提高他们的意识保护环境和节约用水的重要性。作为个人,我们需要采取行动来扮演自己的角色在我们的日常生活。

篇1:英语四级画图作文写作步骤

全文共 788 字

+ 加入清单

图画作文是近年大学英语四级写作中出现频率较高的一类文体,考生要特别加以重视。众所周知,题目所给出的图画必然反映了一定的社会现实或者揭露出某种社会现象。相比其他的文体而言,这类作文难度较大,既要求考生通过文字形式分析出图画内容,又要将图中所包含的的思想内容准确地表达出来。为此,应届毕业生网就此类作文写作步骤予以如下几方面的指导和点拨。

一、审题立意

四级作文写作过程中最关键的步骤就是审题,不仔细审题就会很容易使作文跑题,因此这是必不可少的第一步。此步骤要注意两点:一是分析题目和图画,确定文章的命题类型,抓住中心思想,联想此作文要求的写作主题。二是进一步确定给定的题材及此作文要考查的重点内容。也就是说,通过审题,考生要对作文谈论的主要话题心中有数。

二、组织结构

审题之后,根据分析的结果草拟提纲并组织安排段落,确定文章的整体结构。一般而言,考生可将图画作文转化为三段式提纲作文。开始段描述图画内容;中间段解释图画所反映出来的深层意义;结尾段引出结论,总结全文。各段的主题句要条理清晰,以使自己要表达的内容有更好的把握。每段的重点都应集中于描述图画规定的内容。选用的词句应紧扣图画主题、突出重点、前后连贯、表达清楚。

三、检查修改

考试过程中,很多考生由于紧张、仓促等原因,很容易犯一些简单的错误。因此,最后留出几分钟时间来修改所写内容是很有必要的。然而,切忌大幅度地对作文惊醒修改,因为这样会破坏卷面整洁,影响阅卷老师对试卷的印象。修改时可以从两点着手:

语法方面。包括时态是正确、名词单复数是否对应、被动主动语态是否正确、主谓是否一致等。

词汇方面。包括连接上下句或段落的关联词、固定搭配、及物不及物动词的使用、习惯用语是否使用正确等。同时,单词拼写错误和标点误用都是扣分点,考生应尽量避免此类错误。

综上所述,四级写作需要遵循上述步骤,即审题立意、组织结构、检查修改。祝考生顺利通关!

Communicating in English effectively is essential in todays global economy.

在今日全球化的经济环境下,有效地用英语交流已经变得至关重要。

But conveying your ideas clearly is a skill that needs to be learnt. Too often people simply copy the style of their co-worker and especially their superiors as they think this "good English". You see examples in your in-box every day - emails that are difficult to understand and that you need to read over and over again to get the message.

然而如何清晰地表达你的想法却是门大学问。太多时候人们只是简单地照抄他们眼中同事,尤其是上级写出来的“漂亮英语”。你每天都能在收件箱里看到很多例子——那些难懂的需要你读好多遍才能理解的邮件。

A big mistake is to pad out your writing with unnecessary words and phrases. Remember that the purpose of your writing is to communicate your ideas clearly.

一个巨大的错误就是用一些不必要的单词和词组让你的文章变得冗长。你要牢记你写作的目的是为了更清晰地交流你的想法。

Always try to reduce the number of words in your sentences and avoid lengthy phrases that can be replaced with a shorter alternative. Here are some examples:

总是尽可能减少你句子中使用的字数,避免使用可以用更短的词代替的长词。以下是一些例子:

*Instead of "prior to" use *before*

用“before”代替“prior to”

*Instead of "subsequent" use *after*

用“after”代替“subsequent”

*Instead of "in order to" use *to*

用“to”代替“in order to”

*Instead of "in the event that" use *if*

用“if”代替“in the event that”

*Instead of "with reference to" use *about*

用“about”代替“with the reference to”

*Instead of "state of the art" use *latest*

用“latest”代替“state of the art”

*Instead of "due to the fact that" use *since*

用“since”代替“due to the fact that”

*Instead of "not later than 2pm" use *by 2pm*

用“by 2pm”代替“not later than 2pm”

*Instead of "at the present time" use *now*

用“now”代替“at the present time”

Remember about organisation as well. Use topic sentences to indicate what each paragraph is about. In addition, keep your emails short. No one likes to read an email 10 paragraphs long!

同时也要记得文章有组织性。第一句话就要开门见山地点出你每一段要讲什么。除此之外,要控制你邮件的长度。没人想读一条长达10段的邮件。

By using simple words and easily understood phrases you can improve the clarity of your message no end.

通过使用简单的单词和易懂的词组,你就能最终提高你信息的清晰度。

篇8:小学生英语记叙文的写作方法

全文共 3276 字

+ 加入清单

一.概念

记叙文也称叙述文,是一种以记叙/叙述的手法来表述人物、事件的文体。常见的属于记叙文文体的作品有:故事、游记、通讯、新闻报道、历史、 人物传记、日记和回忆录等。记叙文大致可以分为两大类:以记人为主的记叙文和以叙事为主的记叙文。前者主要是对人物的经历、活动或者性格特征进行叙述;后者则是对某一事件的发生、发展过程和结果进行叙述。前者重在描述人物的活动,而后者则重在表述事件的发生发展过程。

二.六大要素

记叙文的写作要注意交待清楚六大要素,即时间(time)、地点(place)、 人物( character)、事件的原因(cause)、经过(process)和结果( effect)。

由于记叙文中所涉及的要素比其他文体相对要多、要复杂,所以整篇文章的结构安排就显得尤其重要,安排不合理就会使读者产生混乱的感觉。

记叙文的展开一般都是以时间为主线来组织所要叙述的内容,使读者对文章中的人物或事件有一个比较清晰的了解。记叙文的结构安排通常有三种形式:正叙、倒叙和插叙。正叙是英语叙述文中最常用的一种结构,即以人物出现、活动或事件开始发生的时间点作为记叙的起点,然后按照人物活动的展开、事件发生发展的自然顺序进行叙述。倒叙则是在文章的开头就交待人物活动或事件发展的结果。插叙这一结构在我们的英文写作中很少用到。

三.时态

记叙文讲述的大多是过去已经发生的活动或事件,因此用过去时态(一般过去时、过去进行时、过去将来时、过去完成时)的作品比较多。但有时为了使文章显得更加真实、亲切和生动,也可以使用现在时态(一般现在时、 现在进行时、现在将来时、现在完成时)。

四.人称

记叙某个人物的经历、活动或某件事情的经过离不开叙述的主体,即 “人称”。记叙文中的人称大多采用第一人称或第三人称的形式。第一人称的叙述主观色彩较浓,可以增强文章的真实感,有利于表述细腻的情感和细节的过程;第三人称的叙述可以超越时空的限制,更加真实、客观地表述某一人物活动或事件的全过程。

无论采用第一人称,还是采用第二人称,都要保持全文叙述主体的人称的一致性。注意:句式尽量要多变,不要通篇文章的句子都以人称代词开头,否则文章会显得单调沉闷。例如: I loved the book first because of its beautiful heroine. Then I found it a romantic love story which greatly moved me. I now find that it is better taken as the growth story of a naive girl into a strong-willed woman. I realize that it is the essence of the book that attracts such big number of faithful readers.

这一段描述在用词、内容、逻辑上都不错,但过多地使用了以“I”开头的句子,使文章略显单调乏昧,给读者的印象大打折扣。

五.措辞与表达

在全国大学英语四级考试的各种作文体裁中,记叙文需要应试者具有更全面的语言技能与篇章组织能力。四级考试中常见的议论文和说明文分别要求语言的准确性和论证的合理性、可信性;而记叙文的语言则以生动、真实、 贴切为准则。同一个记叙文题目,不同的人会描述不同的人物经历或事件,又很少有固定的表达或句式可供参考,这时作者的综合语言水平就会表现出来,对能否取得高分起到了相当重要的作用。 这就要求考生平时要多注意语言的磨练和积累。

六.记叙文写作技巧

1. 仔细审题,明确主题,选准素材,罗列提纲。

2. 写好第一段

最好能采用一个复句并且用上几个四级水平的单词或词组。这样的文章开篇方式会使读者或阅卷人确信接下来的文章也一样精彩。

我们来看这样一段文章的开头:

The results of the college entrance examination came. I tore open the envelope. As soon as I saw the score,tears streamed down my face. I fell into my bed and did not get up the whole day. All was over. What is the meaning to live on earth? For the first time, I thought of death, of being a vagrant and of being single all my life. I was only seventeen. Wasn’t it cruel to me? My father was hurt and he could not stand it that his son was a disgrace. He was angry beyond words. My mother kept silent,and often I saw her in tears. Horror filled the house.

怎么样,你自己是否也被一种失落与绝望的气氛所笼罩,并且期待着看到作者接下来会做些什么呢?

3. 结构要清晰

下笔之前一定要对整篇文章的结构有一个完整的构想,作文的框架、主题和脉络是最重要的采分点。要清楚每一段要陈述哪些内容,这样不仅可以增强文章的逻辑性和可接受性,还可以使整篇作文的行文水到渠成,不会有凑字数的烦恼。

4. 尽量多使用表示转折、顺接、因果和时间的连接词

如first、second、moreover、for one thing…for another、on the one hand…on the other hand等。这样既可以显示语言功底,又增强了记叙内容的连贯性和生动性。

5. 文章不要写得太长

有的考生遇到触动自己内心情感的记叙文题目时就“一发不可收拾”,但由于时间有限,结果草草收尾,甚至没有结尾。四级作文毕竟是应试作文, 只要充分发挥出自己的英语语言水平,表述出所规定的内容就可以了。

6. 要多用四级词汇,要使句式多样化

没有语言错误并不是高分作文的保障(基本没有语言错误只是8分的基本要求) ;作文想达到11分以上,四级词汇和句型必须达到一定的比例。如,表示“重视”的词汇有stress,emphasize等,但选用短语attach importance to更能吸引阅卷人的注意;disagree和frown on sth. 都表示反对或不赞成,前者就平淡,后者表达意思很生动,更能引起阅卷老师的注意。

简单句和复合句合理搭配,长短句交替使用,会增强文章的节奏感,使描写更生动,给阅卷老师留下深刻印象。如:

(1) 名词化手段:用名词或名词词组替换一个句子或句子的主要部分,然后使这个名词或名词短语成为另外一个句子的组成部分,以达到合并句子的目的。如:

We were very much surprised. Mary refused the invitation.

We were very much surprised at/by Mary’s refusal of the invitation.

(2) 定语化手段:根据语义关系,可以把其中一句转换成形容词或形容词性成分、分词短语、定语从句等,如:

The winnerwas in no mood for speeches. The winner was hot and tired.

Thewinner,hot and tired,was in no mood for speeches.(转换成形容词短语) 7. 字迹清楚,卷面整洁。尽量不涂抹。 8. 最后的2—3分钟,进行修改检查。

检查的内容不是“大处着眼”,而是“小处着手”;不是考虑作文的框架结构,而是留心细枝末节。

篇9: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

篇11:2024年中考英语写作之看图作文

全文共 2621 字

+ 加入清单

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

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

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

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

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

例题分析(例题)

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

要求:

⒈ 从所给素材中任选两种情形进行阐述,不可多选或少选。

⒉ 条理清楚,意思连贯,语句通顺,标点正确;

⒊ 词数 80 ~ 100。

参考词汇: 建议 suggest v. suggestion n.

气体 gas n. 污染 pollution n.

THE POLLUTIONS

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

② More and more diseases are caused by polluted air.

③ People are disturbed quite often by kinds of noises.

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

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

1、认真读题。注意,题目虽然给了四幅图,但是却只要求写其中的两个就行。

2、题意要求的是阐述个人的观点-最担忧的两种情形。而不是对图片进行描述。

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

4、注意字数,语法,拼写等,避免错误。

下面是两个例文,大家可以参考一下。

One possible version:

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

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

Another possible version:

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

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

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

评分标准:

1. 内容完整,语句流畅,无语法错误,书写规范,给9-10分;

2. 内容较完整,语句较流畅,基本无语法错误,书写较规范,给6-8分;

3. 内容不完整,语句欠流畅,语法错误较多,书写较规范,给3-5分;

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

看图作文不可小视。希望大家掌握答好这种题型的要点,并积累词汇。

篇12:我的自传英语作文范文我的自传写作指导

全文共 2702 字

+ 加入清单

一、什么是自传

自传是叙述自己生平经历的文章。生平经历是指一个人生活的整

个过程。婴儿——幼儿——上学——现在

1、婴儿时期(吃、哭、爬、学说话、学走路……)

听妈妈说那时候的我是怎样的?(高、矮、胖、瘦、乖、闹、聪明……)例文欣赏

示例1:听妈妈说,小时候的我胖乎乎的,很聪明。刚到了九个月就会说话了,把妈妈叫得很开心;10个月就会学走路了,摇摇晃晃,东倒西歪但不让人扶。有一次从床上掉下来,至今胳膊上还留有伤疤;奶奶说我那时候特别乖巧,但也特别淘气。

特点:聪明、淘气

示例2:刚出生的我在医院里又哭又闹,说着平常人不懂的“外星球语”,让爸妈很苦恼,白天我咬着奶瓶呼呼大睡,晚上我就活跃起来,让大人抱着我到处去溜达,如果一松手,那哭声在你耳朵里徘徊,仿佛一栋楼都会震动起来!

特点:爱闹

2、幼儿时期

⑴、脑中充满疑问

“妈妈,天上的星星为什么会眨眼睛?”“妈妈,我的肚子为什么会饿?”“妈妈,为什么天上的月亮有时是圆的,有时是弯弯的?”⑵、探索世界

把家里的小闹钟、把我的玩具拆得七零八落

⑴、⑵表现出我很聪明

⑶、上幼儿园

哭着、喊着不肯上幼儿园这些表现出我又很淘气

例文欣赏

示例1:一眨眼的功夫,时间老人已把婴儿时期带走了,幼儿时期缓缓走来。妈妈和幼儿园的老师都说我好动。为此我觉得自己得了儿童多动症,其实我确实挺爱动的。在幼儿园里,我基本不会规规矩矩的坐上三分钟;就算坐在椅子上,也是东摇西摆。结果一次在课堂上“发挥”多动时,老师误以为我在吃东西,我的脸烧了又烧,简直就像一

只掉进油锅里的虾。

示例2:幼儿时期的我最爱跳舞。记得有一次,妈妈手机里传出了一阵响亮的歌声,在一旁搞东西的我听见了,便情不自禁的跳起来,屁股一扭一扭的,手也摆动起来,不时还走一下猫步,仿佛我已经沉浸在这欢乐地歌声里,无法自拔一样!一旁的妈妈鼓起掌来,笑着说:“看来我们家会有一位舞神了。”奶奶听后,大笑起来,家里充满了快乐的气氛。

3、我上学了

⑴、有了稳定的兴趣。如:①、爱上了学习②、迷上了阅读

⑵、进不了

⑶、交了很多朋友

例文欣赏

示例1:进入小学后,在优美的校园里,我感受到了学习的快乐,从此爱上了学习。现在,我是班里的学习委员、语文课代表。我的作文经常受到老师表扬,不仅在作文比赛上获过奖,还经常在一些刊物上发表呢!

示例2:八岁的我爱书如命。故事书、漫画书、作文书、科幻书、小说等等,不管什么书,我都一股脑儿拿起来就读。不管晚上作业有多少,事情有多忙,我都会挤出一点时间来看书。

我看书很着迷。我会随着书中的趣事哈哈大笑;也会为着书中令人落泪的悲惨故事而伤心痛哭;看到本领高超、助人为乐的人,我会产生敬佩之情;看到那些烧杀抢掠的恶人和那些贪赃枉法的坏人,我心中的愤怒油然而生……每当妈妈看见我忽而大笑、忽而大哭,忽而喜悦,又忽而愤怒时,总会无可奈何地叹息道:“这丫头,真是没办法!”

示例3:我进入了XX小学读书,在这座优美的校园里,我对学习有了比较大的变化,表现比较积极,一年级第一批就加入了少先队,四年级参加了鼓号队,曾经当过体育委员、语文课代表。在学习上能多看课外书籍,经常去剑英图书馆借书或去新华书店看书,同时注意积累好词好句,坚持每个星期写一扁日记,因此语文成绩比较理想,对作文比有兴趣,作文经常被老师表扬;数学成绩还算可以,但是英语一直是我的弱项,总感到压力好大。

示例4:我结交了很多朋友,他们也十分乐意和我交往,使我从交往中得到了许许多多的快乐。我对他人十分的诚实守信,从来不说恶意

的谎言,答应别人的事情绝对做到,因此,他们也很乐意跟我玩,和我谈心。我有时也会跟别人一起哈哈大笑或讲悄悄话,跟同学们打成一片,让我成为他们心目中的好朋友。有了他们我的生活充满了朝气,充满了快乐。我对人十分有礼貌,助人为乐也是我的本份,他人有困难,我一定会竭尽全力去帮助他。

4、现在的我

长大了、懂事了、学会承担了、有理想了。

例文欣赏

示例1:随着年龄的增长,我变得越来越懂事了。想起妈妈以前整天都为我操心,而我却总是惹她生气,我的心里真不是滋味。

星期五放学回到家,妈妈放下我的书包,就径直走进厨房准备做饭。我想:妈妈工作了一整天,已经很累了,又要去接我,回到家还要做饭,这多么不应该!想到这,我马上走进厨房。

“妈妈。”

“有什么事儿吗?”

“妈妈,您去休息吧,我帮您做饭。”

“不用了,你快去做作业吧,饭菜很快就好了。”

“妈妈,就让我为您做一顿饭吧,嗯?”

妈妈只好笑了笑,点了点头。

晚饭后,我又替妈妈把碗碟洗得干干净净,把家里打扫了一遍,最后还为妈妈捶背按摩。妈妈很高兴,对我说:“孩子,你长大了,懂事了,妈妈真高兴!”我听到这句话,心就像被浸在一罐世界上最甜的蜜糖里。

这就是12岁的我,懂事的我。

示例2:现在的我,会承担责任了;十二岁的我会像挤海棉一样挤时间了;十二岁的我,会自己面对困难了;十二岁的我,成熟了许多;十二岁的我已经长大了,一些鸡毛蒜皮的小事,我自己已经会应付了。面对十二岁的人生,我好像还有点混浊,但比起以前已经进步了许多。对于我来说,未来是一条坎坷的岔路,我一定要选择正确地道路,要一直努力认真的向前走。只要努力学习,就会考上重点大学。

示例2:2000年7月20日,随着一阵“哇哇”的哭声,一个可爱的婴儿来到了这个五彩缤纷的世界。从此,生活的大舞台上就有了我的小天地。我的小脚丫在小天地里任意的涂鸦,涂鸦成我难忘的昨天。㈡:结尾

1、对自己成长的总结

2、对未来的向往

例文欣赏

示例1:岁月如梭,整整12年过去了,我从不懂事的小孩子,变成了有志气的大姑娘,我希望,以后能改掉坏习惯,开心快乐地成长。示例2:比起小时的我确实是进步了很多,可是人生的道路是曲折而漫长的,学海无涯,我还有许多东西不懂,我想:只要有远大理想,带着顽强拼搏的意志和勇气走下去,就能够迈进成功的殿堂,就能对国家有贡献!

篇14:提高考研英语作文的写作技巧有哪些

全文共 2222 字

+ 加入清单

2005年英语考纲有重大变化,其中之一就是作文考查的变化。新增加一篇小作文,使作文考查由一篇变为两篇,而原来的大作文的字数也由“不少于200字”调整为“150至200字”,满分20分。新增的作文是一篇100字左右的应用性短文,文体包括有信件、便笺、备忘录等,满分10分。既然是新增题型,就不会太难,但不好预测文体,这就要求考生复习时力求面面俱到,掌握写作规律及注意事项,尤其是对常见的应用文体如书信等

大作文的写作一般会给考生写作提纲,或图表,图画,或图文并茂。命题方式虽然多样,但题目涉及面往往是考生比较熟悉的内容,目的是测定考生语言的实际应用能力。要求表达清楚,文字连贯,中心突出,内容丰富,句式多变,句子结构和用词正确。

语言的应用能力不可能一蹴而就,必须厚积薄发,必须经过长期的实践锻炼。在提高英语写作能力方面,我觉得:一是要背大量的优秀范文,整段整篇地背,并转换为自己的语言,写作时自己能随心所欲支配。考试时避免套用以前死记硬背的几个范文,把一些不达意的词堆积在一起,没有统一性,无法很好地表现主题;二是要多动手。包括对背过的文章进行词语替换,句式转换,句子重组等,以及对某一主题展开写作。多动手才能提高笔下功夫,才能保证在考场上顺利写作。可以说背诵范文是培养语感,积累素材,掌握写作方法,动手写作是实践,是最终目的,这两者结合起来,就是“理论联系了实际”。另外,背诵范文应有针对性,写作训练也是一样,在训练中要掌握每一类型作文的写作规律,根据其每一类作文的写作特点——如提纲式作文就要求考生根据提纲提示的思路和规定的要点展开段落——全面训练,但不要带有押题的心理,靠背几篇范文就能应付考试的心态是不可取的。

下面说一下英语写作过程中的注意事项

一、认真审题

作文第一步是仔细审题,考生要仔细阅读试题要求及相关信息,如图表,图画,数字等,准确把握出题者意图。考研作文忌信手掂来,提笔就写,根本不审题,想到哪儿就写到哪儿,或完全凭自己想象编故事,置考试要求于不顾, “下笔千言,离题万里”。比如1998是一幅卡通画,老母鸡申明外加一首打油诗,讽刺一些企业把该尽职之事作为推销产品的承诺。如果考生说老母鸡很可爱,但爱自夸,然后说自己某个同学也爱自夸,这就偏离主题。2000年的作文“A Brief Histiry of World Commercial Fishing ”.它给出了两张图,从1900年的渔船和鱼量之比到1995年的渔船和鱼量之比的变化谈如何保护渔业资源,应从商业性滥捕鱼这一主题展开话题,有的考生却大谈环境污染。这就偏离了主题,因为题中自始自终都没有谈到环境污染问题。

有的同学没有审题习惯,或担心时间不够草草审题,最后发现文不对题,草草收场,这就影响了英语成绩,同时也会影响后两门考试的考试心情。

二、列出提纲

考试规定的时间是很有限的,所以不能花太多时间准备一个详细的提纲,但关键词提纲或粗略提纲还是非常有必要的。对原始材料分析归纳后要形成一个基本的框架。文章打算分几段写,每段大概怎样写,自数控制在多少,开头段落是道破主题,点名要旨,引人入胜还是先给出主题一般的背景情况和对主题进行浓缩的陈述呢,中间段落和结尾有怎样写呢。这些都要心中有数。有的考生习惯用汉语构思文章,逐句翻译提纲,当碰到某个词卡住时就翻译不下去,僵在那里。要注意列提纲是为了更好更全面的表达主题。主题的表达可有多种形式,不一定非要寻找一个特定的词或句子。考试时考生要充分调动大脑,灵活运用以前所学知识。

三、开始写作

一篇文章往往由四部分组成,标题(title),首段(opening paragraph),主体(body paragraph),结尾段( concluding paragraph)。标题要新颖,能引起读者兴趣,首段的内容根据文章的体裁而变化,比如议论文可以从一种现象,一种观点出发引出作者的观点。记叙文往往交代人物和故事背景。主体是文章的主要部分,通过合适的语篇模式表达一定的观点,考生要围绕中心按一定顺序分层次有重点的展开叙述,描写,议论。结尾段是对全文的总结,论点上要与前面的叙述一致和统一。写作时要注意以下几点。

1、要统一,连贯。

选择那些最能体现中心思想最具代表性的材料,这些材料要共同表达一致的信息。选材时切忌胡子眉毛一把抓。词语堆积,不伦不类。前后及段落之间在逻辑关系上要紧密衔接,不能把没有任何逻辑关系的词放在一起。可以用恰当的关联词把思想连贯的表达出来。

2、用词准确,语法正确

考试时要特别注意语法,此语,语气,标点符号等,为了避免太多单词拼写错误,语法错误,不要为了追求词语的华丽而堆积一些自己也没把握的单词,不要刻意追求长句而写一些自己不知对错的有多个从句组成的长句。考试时最好选择自己最有把握的词汇,短语,句式。

3、足够字数,卷面整洁

绝对不能字数不够,即使一句话颠来倒去说也要凑够字数。字数不够,即使写的非常精彩,也不能拿高分。

四、修改

英语写作时考生由于仓促,紧张等原因,很容易犯一些简单的,一眼就能发现的错误。所以考生一定要留出几分钟时间用于修改。不要大幅度进行修改,更不要因为修改破坏卷面整洁,影响阅卷老师心情。修改时可以从以下几点进行

1、语法

包括时态是否一致,主谓是否一致,名词单复数是否对应,被动主动语态是否错用等

2、词汇

包括连接上下句或段落的关联词,习惯用语,固定搭配,词类混淆,误用及物不及物动词等。

3、拼写和标点符号

篇17:2024年论初中生英语写作技巧

全文共 1688 字

+ 加入清单

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。

篇20:小升初英语作文的写作技巧

全文共 3637 字

+ 加入清单

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

一、措辞

1、选择生动准确的词

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

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

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

Five houses burnt down yesterday (specific)

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

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

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

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

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

2、使用英语成语和习语

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

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

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

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

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

3、用词的宽度

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

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

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

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

二、句子的多样化

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

l、长短句交替使用

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

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

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

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

修改后三个句子长短不一,读起来就给人以不同的感觉。

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

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

2、句子开头的多样化

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

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

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

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

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

3、句子结构的多样化

写作中可以通过句型结构的变化来增添文采,强化表现力。如:

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

(平行结构.这类结构整齐、紧凑;句子生动、鲜明,语义贯通、语势强劲有力。)

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

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

(采用倒装句结构后,充分体现出受剥削受压迫的人民解放后扬眉吐气的心情。)

三、观点切题结构合理

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

l.Good health is important to everyone of us.

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

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

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

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