篇1:如何提高商务英语写作

全文共 2313 字

+ 加入清单

一、培养基础英语写作能力

转变英语学习观念,培养基础英语写作能力是提高商务英语写作能力的基础和关键。为此,必须抓好以下三个环节:

1.不断通过写作练习培养英语语法的应用能力,重视掌握有关词汇的用法,以便能运切实用有关语法和词汇去写作。这是英语写作的基础。

不仅要记住语法规则,更重要的是要通过做各种各样的写作练习,以达到在写作中能正确运用有关语法规则。要记住英语单词的汉语意思,更重要的是要通过阅读在上下文中准确掌握英语单词的用法。单词的用法(主要是实词的用法)主要包括:单词的确切意思-包括其情感意义、文体色彩等;它与有关同义词或近义词的区别;它的习惯性搭配。这样,学习者才能在写作中避免那些尽管语法上没有什么错误、用词却有明显错误的现象。

2.通过大量阅读逐渐培养英语思维,并掌握一些写好句子的技巧,以便在把句子写正确的同时,不断培养用地道的英语把句子写好的能力。

结合提高阅读能力,大量阅读各类题材的英语文章,有意识地逐渐培养英语思维,并把它用于写作。在阅读过程中要注意:不要死扣每句英语的汉语意思,而应着重获取作者所要传递的信息;对于相对简易的、与日常生活或所学专业有关的文章,应注意某些意思的英语表达方式,尤其要注意与汉语有明显不同的表达方式,注意其用词、词序、搭配等,以便将来写作时有效地模仿,使写出的句子地道化。掌握英语句子的写作技巧,恰当运用各种类型的句子。

3.了解一些英语段落、篇章的组织和写作知识。所写段落与篇章均要力求连贯(coherence)和衔接(cohesion)。篇章的用词和句式在文体上一般要保持一致(unity)。

二、商务英语文体特点

要提高商务英语写作水平,除了要有扎实的英语基本功,还要对商务英语文体特点有充分的认识,准确的区别不同体裁商务英语的风格特点,从而写出满足不同商务目的的要求的商务文件。不同的商务环境相对应的不同的商务活动也是不相同的,了解商务英语语言的共同特点、风格、语篇结构而且清楚认识在不同商务活动中商务英语写作的具体特点和要求。它包括构思、起草、修改3个阶段。

1.构思阶段

商务英语写作在此切断必须考虑三个文体:(1)写作目的-通知、请求、说服、存档;(2)写给谁-客户、上级、同事、下属;(3)字数要求;(4)形式结构-计划或建议报告、商务函件、备忘录、电子邮件。明确这些要求后,需要考虑语篇结构,采用那种陈述顺序-直接顺序、间接顺序、直接于间接混合顺序。

2.起草阶段

起草阶段,是将构思阶段在头脑中形成的想法以书面文字的形式呈现出来。商务英语写作的最终目的是为了获的读者的支持、信任和好感。而且还要注意礼貌用词,例如使用褒义词、适当的头衔、不带任何性别、种族和年龄偏见的词等。

作为专门用途英语的商务英语,因其特殊目的,希望通过最有效的沟通提供给合作者更容易理解的清楚具体的信息。其信函在词汇选择上,遵循3c原则:

(1)conciseness(精简)。在复合词与简单词之间、长词与短词之间,应选择简单词或短词;在词组与单词之间,选择单词,尽量不使用不必要的介词词组;

(2)clarity(明白)。要准确传达商务交流的内容,必须避免使用模棱两可的词语或表达方式,这样才能使信函意义明确,不被误解,表达思想才能够更突出。避免在同一信函或其他写作中使用同一词。避免使用“if”,“hope”,“but”等表示疑问的词。在日期表达上,涉及到具体某月,均使用那个月的具体名词,如“January,February,…”。避免用“instant, ultimo,approx”等不确定词语。另外避免将日期写成如“5/4/1995”类似的形式,因为对于英国习惯是4月5日,而美国习惯是5月4日。

(3)Courtesy(礼貌)。尽量使用表示肯定的词汇,少用否定词,因为否定词给人一种否定的印象,或者还有指责对方的意思肯定对方时用词多用“you”,“your”,少用“I”,“we”,“us”,“our”,此种方式即“以客户为中心的‘You—attitude’”表达形式,因为不管你的目的是提供信息、说服别人还是增进友谊,最能打动人。

3.修改阶段

商务英语写作在修改阶段,力求句子简洁明了,段落清晰完整如上文所述。

完成商务英语写作过程在商务写作中,还应注意所选词语的礼貌性,讲话要婉转客气。的第一阶段是写出高水平商务英语的前提。提高商务英语写作能力的关键是把握商务英语写作的三个基本原则-简洁、准确、完整以及商务活动应遵循的语用策略-礼貌、合作。总之,商务英语的文体决定了商务英语写作的基本原则;简洁-才能提高效益;准确-才能避免延误;完整-才能显示逻辑思考能力。

由于教育背景和工作经历的不同而写作风格各异,但他共同遵循的写作宗旨是明晰扼要,其商务文稿要力求开门见山,扣住主题,思路清楚,层次分明,内容具体而完整。现代商业写作做到这些还远远不够。要走出写作风格的误区:一是避免使用套话。二是少用大词多用小词。用简单的言词交流思想,使人感到亲切,书面语向口语化过渡。然而写作的口语化并不意味着要用俚语或行话,因为它们的用法是有局限性的,很难用得恰到好处,弄不好让人感觉随意无礼,容易产生费解和误解。时代的发展变化促使语言更新由繁到简,这不免引起一些人的抱怨,他们认为这是“稀释”了英语。竞争如此激烈的社会,人们惜时如金,那个人会愿意听您咬文嚼字,仔细去揣模字里行间的文学色彩,欣赏书面语措词如何地道。

由上可见,不同文体的英语语言有不同的使用标准、礼貌标准以及传达含义的约束化表达方式,只有了解和掌握现代商务英语词汇的文体特征和应遵循的要求,才能处理好对外业务往来中的各类商务写作,使相关业务顺利开展下去。

篇2:考研英语作文常见的四个写作格式错误

全文共 1176 字

+ 加入清单

【摘要】考研英语作文的评分,首先关注的就是单词、句子、格式的正确性。因此,在作文的复习中,不能只关注高端句型,正确的格式也是不容忽视的。

写作格式错误主要包括题目的写法、文章的格式、大小写以及标点符号等四个方面。

题目的写法

题目是首先映入读者眼帘的,所以要注意题目的书写位置。一定要在试卷作文纸上的上方中间位置书写。同时还应在话题和正文之间留出一定的距离,即比正文行距稍宽一些。

其次,要注意题目的大小写,实词的首字母一定要大写。其它虚词如冠词、连词(但如连词的字母多于5个时则大写)和介词首字母不需要大写。比如:

跳动的心(例子)

误:Attitudes Toward Money

正:Attitudes toward Money

文章的格式

1、四边留空:卷面的四边一定要留出适当的空白。这样的文章才能整齐、美观,给人以清晰、明快的感觉。

2、空格:文章的每段的首行一定要有统一的空格(一般缩进4-6个字节)。

大小写方面的错误

在考研文章的评改过程中,有关大小写方面的错误层出不穷,这是考生的一个弱点。一般来说,大写规则有以下几条:

1、大写每句话的第一个字母和直接引语的第一字母

如:He said,He is going to Shanghai next week.

2、大写专有名词,或用作专有名词的部分普通名词,通常是缩略形式

如:DrG .G . East

3、大写缩写字母

如:MPA ,MBA ,BBC

4、文章标题要大写

5、头衔在专有名词前要大写,在专有名词后就小写

例如:Captain SmithSmith, the captain;Uncle GeorgeGeorge ,my uncle

标点符号

考生在写文章时,一定要注意正确使用标点符号,切忌从头到尾只用逗号的现象。一定要熟练掌握常用标点符号的基本用法,尤其要正确使用逗号和分号。

三段式作文注意事项

1、作文卷面要保持整洁,不要连笔,不要涂改,这是获取印象分的重点。很多考生由于在考场过于紧张导致作文的单词老是写错,这是致命伤啊,会直接让你越写越没感觉就越没信心了,所以平常要加强练笔!

2、全文的第一句和各段的第一句必须是文章的中心句,最好能用复杂句表达。这是因为阅卷老师一般没有那么多的时间去看作文,所以只能大概浏览下各段的首句,这是获得高分的关键。

3、全文结构布局:全文分为三段,第一段3句,第二段5句,第三段4句,可根据具体情况调整。段落中,第一句是topic ,第二三句是detail ,第三句是conclusion 。

另外为了方便大家学习,提高复习的效率。小编为广大学子整理了考研技巧和考试大纲,更有历年真题提供测试等等。针对每一个科目进行深度的探讨和技巧挖掘。欢迎各位考研的同学进行了解和资讯。考研的痛苦是难免的,不要丧失信心,坚信苦尽甘来。预祝各位学子取得成功!

篇5:最有用的商务英语写作技巧

+ 加入清单

在今日全球化的经济环境下,有效地用英语(精品课)交流已经变得至关重要。

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。

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。

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”

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。

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7:高考英语写作指导策略之探究的论文

全文共 2168 字

+ 加入清单

论文摘要】在高考英语试题中,写作是有效提高学生整体成绩的重要手段,写作是目的也是为了测试学生直接运用英语表达的能力而设置的,因此通常都会放在试卷的最后面作为压轴题出现。在高考英语写作要求中,明确提出要让考生运用所学知识进行书写,能组词成句、组句成文,语句符合英语语法和习惯。在写出的书面材料中,要求达到:切中题意,文理通顺,语言准确,得当。那么,怎样才能在高考英语写作中出类拔萃呢?这正是本文要探讨的内容。

一、有的放矢,了解高考英语写作要点

要对高考英语写作的题型及内容有所了解,才能把握好高考英语写作的考点,在此基础上才能找到行之有效的对策及方法。纵观近几年各省高考英语试题中,写作测试的命题思路,有一种从指导性写作逐步向半开放式写作过渡的趋势。半开放式写作,具体地说,就是给考生们提供一定的材料(包括图、文或图文结合)然后要求学生根据材料来进行书面表达,这样的考题形式,既限制了考生随心所欲的思维,又给予考生适当的发挥空间。这种命题方式能较好地考查考生的语言组织能力、书面表达能力以及思维能力。而在文体方面,记叙文、议论文、应用文及书信为最常见的写作题材。因此,我们可以做一个形象的比喻,写文章就像工厂里制造一台机器那样,首先要确定机器由几部分组成,然后对这几部分分别细化,形成初步的设计图;再根据要求对初步的设计图进行完善、补充、修改,随之形成最终的设计图;然后我们再按照图纸的设计,使用我们所掌握的零件去制造出机器;同样的道理,学生写作时可参照以下模式:

1.理解话题:学生在动笔前必须对指定的话题进行反复细读,认真思考,理解其真正的含义,了解出题者的意图,这是进行写作的第一步;

2.明确文体,确定人称时态:这一阶段的判断中,主要强调近十年高考最常见的两种文体:(1)说明文:必须按照事物的原貌加以说明、介绍、解释,常采用一般现在时,被动语态也常使用;(2)记叙文:通常采用第一人称,描述本人的经历或耳闻目睹之事;或用第三人称讲述他人的事情,如果是过去的事情,要用过去时。

3.初拟提纲,再理解话题:明确文体的基础上,草拟写作提纲;提纲是文章的骨架,可以是一句活,也可以是一个词组,由于考试时间所限,提纲内容不必面面俱到,但必须体现文章的整体结构和思路;目前绝大部分高中学生在英语写作时,还习惯于使用母语进行构思,然后将构思好的中文内容翻译成英文,这种情况是正常的;关键在于翻译过程中的语言表达必须符合英语语言的表达习惯

4.开始写作:提纲完成后,应根据提纲充实内容,如果说提纲是骨架的话,那么这时你必须将骨架填充血肉;具体的说就是要扩展要点,连词成句,适当地变换句型,组句谋篇成文;注意应简明扼要,层次分明、用词准确、语法概念清楚,使文章更具说服力,然后在写作完成后,还要对文章进行快速的检查,减少单词的拼写错误和句子表达的错误。

二、高考英语写作指导的具体策略

根据以上对历年高考英语写作试题的分析,我们可以从以下三个方面去指导学生进行写作:

1.细读材料,认真审题

仔细阅读书面表达题所给材料的全部内容,准确理解题目要求。需要认真审查的内容有:(1)文章的开头和结尾是否已给出;(2)用第几人称写作,书面表达要求中会明确指出使用第一人称还是第三人称;(3)提供的情景是图画、图表,还是提纲,如果是连环画,要注意故事情节的连贯性,确定合理的情节发展;(4)是否提供参考词汇,如果提供有参考词汇,写作中最好要用到;(5)采用什么文体,如果是议论文,要有论点、论据和结论三部分。如果是应用文,要注意其格式。如果是记叙文,要抓住六个要素:时间、地点、人物、事件、事情起因、事情的发展与结果。

2.恰当选择词语和句式

认真审题后,就可以列提纲了,将重点单词、短语、句型写在提纲里,关于选词切忌使用生僻词语,要求做到用词准确、得体、达意。选择句式时,尽量使用多种句式,如强调句、倒装句、各种名词性从句、定语从句、状语从句和固定句型等,长句和短句视情况交错使用,这样可以提高文章的档次,使文章生辉。

选词大多是在一组同义词或近义词之间进行。例如,我们要表达“好”这个意思,一般来说,大家会马上想起“good”,因为口语中我们经常说agoodfriend、goodluck、agoodpicture等。但是,在不同的短语中,可以选择不同的英语单词使表达更加准确、生动、形象。

3.多背常识性语句,扩大知识面

语言是有规律的,不同体裁的书面表达都有其常识性语句。如果同学们平时有大量的语句积累,在写作时就能把积累的东西调动起来。这些常识性语句既可增加文章的连贯性、逻辑性和可读性,同时还能提供地道的表达方式。写人物介绍时,应着重写人物的姓名、性别、年龄、职业、身高、健康状况、业余爱好、工作态度、与人相处和社会评价等语句。例如:lipingisagoodteacher,whoisthirtyyearsold.heis175centimetrestallandheishealthy.等。

篇8:2024关于英语应用文写作技巧

全文共 770 字

+ 加入清单

应用文是人们日常生活中广泛使用的文体。它最突出的特点是它的实际应用性,应用文包括很广,如书信、通知、日记、海报、便条、启事、请柬、电报、合同等。应用文的语言应使用规范语言,重在实用,力求朴实、准确、简洁。

一、书信

书信我们分为两部分:信封和内容。

1、信封的写法。

英语信封正面的左上角,写发信人的姓名和地址。在信封的正面中央偏左一点,写收信人的地址和姓名。

英语信封上的地点名称由小到大,视其长短可占二至五行不等。

寄信人只写姓名,不写头衔。但是,收信人一般都在名字前加上头衔,以示礼貌和尊敬。对于没有官衔和学衔的人士,通常在姓名前写上Mr., Mrs.,或Ms.。

信封的写法,一般来说,很少出现在中考英语的作文中。

2、内容。

英文信一般可以分为下列几个部分。

1)信端(Heading)即写信人的地址和发信日期。

2)收信人姓名地址

3)称呼

4)信的正文

5)结束语

6)签名

有的时候,出题者会让考生写e-mail。e-mail的写法和书信的写法基本一致。只不过少了书信在信封上的繁琐。

二、发言稿

发言稿要注意以下三点:

1、发言的地点

2、发言的对象

3、发言的内容。

三、通知

通知的正文一般都是写在"Notice"以词之下,一般来说不必写称呼语和结束语。出同时的单位名称可以写在notice之上,也可以写在正文的右下角。

正文一般采用文章式,有时为了醒目,也可采用广告式。广告式要力求简明扼要,一个句子可分几行。每行第一个字母一般要大写。

四、启事

启事是一种公告式的应用文。团体或个人如有什么事情要向大家公开说明或对公众有什么要求,可将要说的话写成启事,张贴在布告栏上或登在报刊上。启事一般无固定格式,要求简明扼要即可。

五、海报

海报是一种带有装饰性的宣传广告。有时配以绘画图案。内容以影讯、展览、演出信息、友谊赛等为主。为了尽可能使更多的人知道,海报往往贴在醒目之处。

篇9:大学英语四级写作冲刺的方法

全文共 1641 字

+ 加入清单

一、四级作文概述

四级作文是提纲作文,一般按提纲写出相应段落即可。在文章内容上无需追求高深新颖,切题合理便可落笔;在思路逻辑上则要求句意通顺,文字流畅;在文字表现上要求无语法错误,个别小错可忽略(如动介搭配,单词拼写等不涉及语法类小错)。另外,值得一提的是,在篇章结构上建议写三段,所以即便题目只给出两个提纲,最好在完成两个提纲后,再多补充一段,所补内容不限,但须跟话题相关。

二、四级作文例题分析

(1) The Shortage of Fresh Water

1. 目前淡水资源非常紧缺

2. 为什么会出现这种情况

3. 该如何解决

96年6月份曾考过此题,今天来看,似乎更有现实意义。这是一道负面社会现象题,那么挖掘其背后根源,并找出解决方案,就成为探讨的主要方面,而提纲也正是如此。三个提纲各属其类,界限清晰,直接按提纲写三段即可。段1为提出现象,确立研究对象。提纲1翻译后仅一句话,作为一段话则显内容单薄,字数匮乏,所以需进一步发挥。不妨从例证角度扩充,举例时即可基于国内现状,也可纵观全球,显然前者更易行。可从我国西南地区的生活缺水,水价上升,以及河流干涸等细节方面铺陈。段2是原因分析,建议分析主观原因和客观原因两方面。所谓主观原因即是基于人的思想意念,心理意识,行为动机以及行为举措,比如人们节约意识的淡漠或者人们误认为淡水取之不尽等不当想法。而客观原因则是从非人角度出发,如社会发展,人口激增,甚至污染的加剧等方面出发,这些因素均使得淡水消耗的增加。当然,考场上由于时间紧迫,无法细想,可能会写出的两个全是主观类或客观类的原因,其实也无妨,只要二者不同即可,谨防虽言明两原因,但实则彼此混淆,出现逻辑不清的窘况。段3是措施分析,措施可从官方措施和民众措施两方面写起,也可加入作为现代年轻人,我该如何约束自己,从生活中小事做起节约水资源等内容。总之,在内容上考生尽可发挥想象力,纵马驰骋,原则依旧:切题者皆可。

(2)Part-time Jobs for College Students

1.目前大学校园里很多学生业余时间做兼职

2.对于大学生是否该做兼职工作,人们看法不一

3.我的看法

这是一道校园话题,在内容上即涉及现象,又涉及观点,能很好地考察到学生的综合分析能力。提纲1依旧是现象提出,看到提纲1,大家脑海里会浮现很多熟悉的场景,如校园布告栏里张贴着的兼职广告,校园论坛上也经常发布的一些兼职信息等等,这些都可反映在段1中。所以当我们第一眼看到话题或提纲时,脑海中常常会浮现出相关场景,把这些画面定格,进行详细描绘即可,即自然又切题。当然,段1也可从学生的兼职渠道以及兼职类型等方面加以发挥。总之,提纲是总领,而符合总领的任何附属内容都可写。段2是人们对此学生兼职的不同看法,一正一反。切记在表达上述两类观点时,提出其相关论据。段3是提出作者本人看法。本人看法既可选择上述任一方(只要不极端),也可提出与上述均异的第三类观点,对于极度偏激的正反方观点则需做一番调和与勾兑(这个一般很少见)。需要提醒的是,继提出己方观点后,还应补充其他内容,如论据;也可写我的下一步做法,甚至可写我所认为的大家对此问题所应采取的对策云云。

(3)Private Cars of Today

1.目前私家车越来多了

2.私家车为人们带来的益处和问题

这道题只有两个提纲,所以建议在完成提纲要求内容之后再补充一段相关内容,可以在提纲2之后续补段3(如举措类:如何合理地限制私家车的出行以减少废气排放等等),也可在1,2之间插入一段(如原因分析,即为何私家车越来越多)。先来看提纲1,依然是事实陈述,看到提纲1,会很容易联想到马路上川流不息的过往车辆,以及高峰期令人沮丧的堵车,那么即可将这些内容付诸笔端。再看提纲2,是私家车给人们生活带来的影响,该事实是一中性事实,则需辩证地分析其影响的两面性,一方面它带来好处,如让人们的出行变得更自由更方便,另一方面它带来坏处,如排放废气,污染环境,或造成交通堵塞等等。

篇11:小升初英语记叙文写作指导

全文共 2005 字

+ 加入清单

记叙文是记人叙事的文章,它主要是用于说明事件的时间、背景、起因、过程及结果,即我们通常所说的五个“ W ”( what, who, when, where, why )和一个“ H ”( how )。记叙文的重点在于“述说”和“描写”,因此一篇好的记叙文要叙述条理清楚,描写生动形象。下面就谈谈英语记叙文的特点和写好记叙文的基本要领。

一、记叙文的特点

1. 叙述的人称

英语的记叙文一般是以第一或第三人称的角度来叙述的。用第一称表示的是由叙述者亲眼所见、亲耳所闻的经历。它的优点在于能把故事的情节通过“我”来传达给读者,使人读后感到真实可信,如身临其境。如:

The other day, I was driving along the street. Suddenly, a car lost its control and ran directly towards me fast. I was so frightened that I quickly turned to the left side. But it was too late. The car hit my bike and I fell off it.

用第三人称叙述,优点在于叙述者不受“我”活动范围以内的人和事物的限制,而是通过作者与读者之外的第三者,直接把故事中的情节展现在读者面前,文章的客观性很强。如:

Little Tom was going to school with an umbrella, for it was raining hard. On the way, he saw an old woman walking in the rain with nothing to cover. Tom went up to the old woman and wanted to share the umbrella with her, but he was too short. What could he do? Then he had a good idea.

2. 动词的时态

在记叙文中,记和叙都离不开动词。所以动词出现率最高,且富于变化。记叙文中用得最多的是动词的过去的,这是英语记叙文区别于汉语记叙文的关键之处。英语写作的优美之处就在于这些动词时态的变化,正是这一点才使得所记、所叙有鲜活的动态感、鲜明的层次感和立体感。

3. 叙述的顺序

记叙一件事要有一定的顺序。无论是顺叙、倒叙、插叙还是补叙,都要让读者能弄清事情的来龙去脉。顺叙最容易操作,较容易给读者提供有关事情的空间和时间线索。但这种方法也容易使文章显得平铺直叙,读起来平淡乏味。倒叙、插叙、补叙等叙述方法能有效地提高文章的结构效果,让所叙之事跌宕起伏,使读者在阅读时思维产生较大的跳跃,从而为文章所吸引,深入其中。但这些方法如果使用不当,则容易弄巧成拙,使文章结构散乱,头绪不清,让读者不知所云。

4. 叙述的过渡

过渡在上下文中起着承上启下、融会贯通的作用。过渡往往用在地点转移或时间、事件转换以及由概括说明到具体叙述时。如:

In my summer holidays, I did a lot of things. Apart form doing my homework, reading an English novel, watching TV and doing some housework, I went on a trip to Qingdao. It is really a beautiful city. There are many places of interest to see. But what impressed me most was the sunrise.

The next morning I got up early. I was very happy because it was a fine day. By the time I got to the beach, the clouds on the horizon were turning red. In a little while, a small part of the sun was gradually appearing. The sun was very red, not shining. It rose slowly. At last it broke through the red clouds and jumped above the sea, just like a deep-red ball. At the same time the clouds and the sea water became red and bright.

篇13:高中英语作文写作技巧

全文共 1148 字

+ 加入清单

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

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

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

在这一步骤中还需注意三方面问题:

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

2、要综合考虑各个段落的内容安排,避免段落内容的交叉。

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

在扩展的过程中也有些窍门,以下几点可供参考:

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

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

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

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

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

检查修改:要检查复核,不要写完了事。

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

可归纳为:中心突出,主题明确;层次清楚,条理清晰;表达

篇14:2024年SAT英语写作技巧之首段与主体段

全文共 2174 字

+ 加入清单

一.作为一个准SAT考生,需要明确以下几点:

2.从读题、写作到最终润色和定稿,共有25分钟时间。

3.作文要求自己的观点辩论,所以使用第一人称和发生在自己身上的例子是完全可以的。

4.作文得写在线上,且最多只能写两面,超出不给纸。

5.作文由两位考官给分,每人给1-6分,总分在2-12之间,考官受专业评分训练。如果两考官评分相差1分以上,会请第三位考官裁定,因此评分相当客观。

6. 每个考官平均花不超过2min的时间批改作文,考生可以自己去尝试一下两分钟内阅读一篇字迹陌生潦草的文章是什么样的概念,然后就会意识到考官一定在有意识地在文章中寻找一些要素和章法。

7. 写作部分(writing)分值为800分,而作文(Essay)占整个写作(writing)分值的三分之一。

正如以上第2点指出,SAT Essay写作中,时间无比珍贵。俗话说,万事开头难。对于中国学生而言,要迅速通过brainstorming确定好立场并写出比较漂亮的开头尤其困难。

本文将重点指导考生五分钟内审题并创作出漂亮的首段。

第一步:审题立意

一般,SAT作文题目由两个部分组成(如上Figure 1): 提示(Prompt,Figure 1小方框内文字)和写作任务(Assignment,Figure 1划红线的文字)。Prompt往往是源自某些名言语录或者

某些文学作品,主要是用于启发考生的思考。当我们看assignment的时候,我们可以沿着prompt提示的方向去思考,也可以直接按照自己对于assignment来思考。我们以Figure 1中的考题

作为本文中讲解的范例。读完这个题目后,首先要做的是用2-3min时间完成以下几个任务:

i. Understanding the topic (理解话题),

ii. Brainstorming for examples(头脑风暴回顾案例),

iii. Taking a position(确定立场),

iv. Creating an outline(创建提纲).

第二步:创作首段

确定了立场,接下类的重头戏就是快速创作文章的首段。首段是阅卷人重点关注的部分之一,一个好的首段应该完成以下几项任务:

i. Grab the graders’ attention(引发读者兴趣)

ii. Narrow down the topic & Position(告诉读者本文的话题和主旨)

iii. Transit smoothly to the examples(自然过渡到主体段)

毋庸置疑每个考官一次性需要给上百篇作文评分,而大部分的文章都有类似的观点,甚至给出的例子也是相同的。为了让你的文章脱颖而出,你必须设法让你的文章变得有趣,

在一开头就引人入胜,而且这个创作过程必须在2-3min内完成。这里给各位考生重点推荐两种万能开头写作法:“循循善诱”法 和“先扬后抑”法。

“循循善诱”法

“循循善诱”法作为引起读者兴趣的首段,是最常见的。之所以称之为“循循善诱”,是因为写作会按照从大范围到小范围、从概括到具体的循序渐进的模式展开,从而将读者“引诱”到文章的主旨,即作者的立场。

以上是笔者为各位准考生创作SAT Essay首段提供的两套“快餐”。相信各位考生经过多次练习和一定的积累,可以迅速掌握这些方法。当然,有了一个很好的开头你的文章已经成功一半了,另一半就应该交给主体段了。下面我们来看看主体段的写作技巧

(二)留学路书SAT写作的核心内容通常也叫做SAT写作主体段落,在全文起着主心骨的作用。为了能简单明了的写明主旨意思,大家在备考时还需要多练习。下面就为大家介绍一下如何写好SAT写作主体段,期间又要注意些什么。

对于采用一般的四段式和五段式的SAT写作结构而言,中间的主体段在第二段和第三段。作文能取得一个什么样的分数,也就成败在此了。

1.详细叙述自己的观点。

SAT写作是表达对题目的一种看法,在主体段部分,要详细的叙述一下,自己的这种观点的原因。

SAT写作无非就像我们语文的作文。我们是在学习人家的英语,把它变成自己的表达和思考方式。

2.准备充分的例证。

在这部分中,需要大家调用自己所有的例子储备,展现对英美历史事件,人物事迹的掌握和认知程度,这里你可以灵活一点。挖掘该事件和你的论点的关系。为己所用。可以多看一些名人传记,

关心时事,善于思考,做一个兼收并蓄的人。

这三段的结构可以采用论点+例子+感想的方式,用到1-3个事例,尽量用到专有名词,具体时间,数字等等,如Norman Conquest,Peter the Great, Fitzgerald等,加强自己的文采。

他们的事迹比较具有普遍代表性,换句话说就是什么题目都能挖掘挖掘内涵,套的上去。。。。

举例子时注意例子的真实性、典型性、及权威性。

文章例证过程中结构要清晰明了,对于句子和句子之间的逻辑关系一定要交代清楚,前因和后果更要分清。事例的叙述中,时间是非常好的顺序,需要把握。

3.前提是掌握词汇、句式和段落。

当然在解决这些问题的同时,大家要掌握一个基本问题,就是对词汇,句式和段落的掌握,也就是最基本的英语写作知识的掌握。

以上就是SAT培训频道小编为大家准备的SAT写作主体段怎么写的详细内容。包含了论述观点、充分地例证和写好主体段的前提。大家在冲刺阶段一定要对这些问题加以锻炼。

篇19:英语新闻标题写作技巧

全文共 2429 字

+ 加入清单

新闻标题是新闻的题目,读者看新闻时首先看的就是标题。好的新闻标题能使读者在最短的时间内了解新闻的主要内容,小编收集了英语新闻标题写作技巧,欢迎阅读。

新闻标题是新闻的题目,读者看新闻时首先看的就是标题。好的新闻标题能使读者在最短的时间内了解新闻的主要内容,引起阅读兴趣。写作标题的原则,是要尽量用有限的语句将新闻的主要内容和意旨表达清楚。在英语(优习英语网)新闻标题的写作中,选取准确的动词及正确的时态、语态,是一项重要技巧。例如下面这几行标题,不管是硬新闻还是软新闻标题,都含有一个动词:

High tax levels “driving away foreign investors”

Bush acknowledges Viet Nam parallel

Nigerian plane crashes with over 100 aboard

Myles Quin likes to collect stuff-most of all good yarns

The City cultivates a thriving poetry corner out of The Waste Land

如果缺乏动词,新闻标题会显得单调、千篇一律,例如:

Bill Gates and the Microsoft

American views on China

这两则标题显得大而空泛,华而不实,没有提供关于新闻具体内容的实际信息,应该尽量避免这种写法。

动词的选择

动词使新闻标题变得活跃,但它本身必须是一个活跃的词,能最准确、生动地描述新闻事实,因为标题里没有多余的空间来容纳形容词,所有修饰性的内容,包括程度、颜色、感觉等,都必须依靠这个动词来体现。因此,要尽量避免使用“ask”这类平淡的动词和表达含糊的混合动词,例如“American government gives views on Mexican’s racism”,如果报道对象“American government”在谴责“Mexican’s racism”时用了很有力很明确的语句,那么就应该避免“gives views”这种含糊的写法。

此外,还应该尽量使用表达力强、有力的动词,尽量不使用较弱的助动词“be”、“have”作为新闻标题的主要动词。

时态的使用

一种观点认为新闻标题应使用现在时态,因为所报道的事件虽然已经过去,但它是新近发生的,对读者来说仍然是第一次了解该事件,现在时态能给他们一种事件正在发生的感觉,这对新闻报道来说很重要;另一种观点认为新闻标题不能用现在时,例如法庭报道,对于过去发生的事件,绝对不能用现在时态,避免产生歧义,例如应该写成:“Old retiree stole grocery loaves”,不能写成“Old retiree steals grocery loaves”,否则会使人误会此人一直在继续这种偷窃行为,引起争端。甚至认为任何含有过去的时间因素的标题都应使用过去时态。这一观点可能深受上世纪70年代以来美国新闻学者梅耶(Philip Meyer)的精确新闻报道理论的影响。

那么,究竟应该使用什么时态?考虑的重要依据是看使用现在时态会不会带来歧义,如果不会,则适宜使用现在时。英语新闻标题中不宜使用“yesterday”这个词,尤其是在早报的标题中,因为早报所报道的几乎所有事情都可以被认为是发生在“昨天”的。但如果报道的是将来要发生的事,则应尽量使用确切的时间,如:“Paper industry will strike tomorrow /next week/next month”。再如:“Beijing to fulfill promises for 2008 Olympics”,即使省略了“will”,意思仍很清楚。

有一种新闻标题采用“be+动词不定式”结构,助动词“be”通常省略:

Princess (is) to Visit Baffinaland in August.

Financier (is) killed by burglars.

Countries (are) to Spend More on Cancer Research.

使用将来时态报道即将和日后将会发生的事情是很常见的。

主动语态与被动语态

在英语新闻标题中,主动语态比被动语态的表达效果更好。试比较下面两则新闻标题:

France rejects EU Constitution

EU Constitution rejected by France

对比后,我们发现,使用被动语态的新闻标题,比主动语态标题长,单词数量多,这对有长度限制的标题来说是很不利的。同样长度的标题,主动语态所提供的信息内容更多,结构更生动,而且可以有更多的空间去阐述其他内容,例如“Boy found dead by teacher”如果改写成主动语态“Teacher found boy dead in lab”,不但阐述更加自然,包含的信息也更多。

例外的情况是当事件或动作的承受人比执行者更重要时,可以使用被动语态。

关于动词,还有一个问题需要注意。英语中有不少单词既能作名词,又能作动词,其词性是根据具体语法位置来决定的。写作标题时如果省略了一些前后辅助辨别的词汇,单词的词性就可能变得不确定和含糊,下面这些单词都属于此类:

tax, ban, plan, drive, move, probe, protest, bat, share, watch, cut, axe, ring, bank, rises, state, pay, pledge, talks, riot, attack, appeal, back, face, sign, jump, drug

英语新闻标题的动词应尽量使用一般现在时,但在遇到该动词兼有名词和动词两种词性的情况下,有时可以使用过去时态,以使这个动词的词性更加清楚,避免产生歧义。
