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13:小学英语高效课堂心得体会

全文共 692 字

英语作为一门新兴的综合性课程,走进了小学课堂,要学习它就如同幼儿学习母语一样,一切要从头开始。教师不仅要懂得课堂教学规律,掌握一定的教育学、心理学知识,还必须关注每一位学生,运用一定的组织艺术,努力调动学生的有意注意,激发学生的情感,使学生在愉快、轻松的心境中全身心地投入到学习中去。在课堂上,应注意以下几个方面:

1、良好的课前准备习惯。上课前,要求学生把课堂上要用的东西如教科书、练习本、笔、纸放在桌上一定的地方。预备铃响就自觉地安静下来,收心,唱唱英文歌或chant,造成英文气氛。

2、课堂尽量英语化。

尽量避免用母语进行教学,是进行外语课堂教学的原则之一。语言是思维的工具。为了使小学生的思维尽快地与英语联系起来,在英语课堂组织教学中要尽可能使用英语,做到课堂英语化,以排除对母语的依赖和母语的干扰。小学阶段是学习英语的关键期之一。尽管他们刚涉及英语,掌握的单词和句型甚少,但我们应该从第一节课起,坚持用英语组织教学。由于这时所学一般都是词义具体的单词和简单句子,教师完全可以借助于直观手段来教,帮助学生尽快对内容的理解。在课堂中教师可以充分运用眼神、手势、动作、表情等形式。以此来培养学生直接理解、直接学习和直接应用英语的习惯,初步形成直接用英语的思维能力。

3、教学做到情景化。

小学英语课堂教学必须尽最大限度地引起学生的学习兴趣,为学生提供足够的机会用英语进行活动,让学生感受到运用所学语言成功地达到某种目的后的愉快。这是小学生的年龄特点和英语学科的特殊性所决定的。要使小学生能够在 40 分钟的时间内保持良好的学习状态,教师必须根据不同的教学内容创设各种情景,做到教学情景化。

篇16:中秋节小学生英语作文

全文共 2303 字

Moonquakes are to Mid-Autumn Festival what mince pies are to Christmas. The seasonal round cakes traditionally have a sweet filling of lotus seed paste or red bean paste and often have one or more salted duck eggs in the center to represent the moon. And the moon is what this celebration is all about. Mid-Autumn Festival falls on the 15th day of the 8th month,it is the time when the moon is said to be at its brightest and fullest.

There are two legends which claim to explain the tradition of eating moonquakes. One Tang Dynasty myth holds that the Earth once had 10 suns circling it. One day all 10 suns appeared at once,scorching the planet with their heat.

It was thanks to a skillful archer named Hour Yi that the Earth was saved. He shot down all but one of the suns. As his reward,the Heavenly Queen Mother gave Hour Yi the Elixir of Immortality,but she warned him that he must use it wisely.

Hour Yi ignored her advice and,corrupted by fame and fortune,became a tyrannical leader. Chang-Err,his beautiful wife, could no longer stand by and watch him abuse his power so she stole his Elixir and fled to the moon to escape his angry wrath. And thus began the legend of the beautiful woman in the moon,the Moon Fairy.

The second legend has it that during the Yuan Dynasty,an underground group led by Zhu Yuan Zing was determined to rid the country of Mongolian dominance. The moon cake was created to carry a secret message.

When the cake was opened and the message read,an uprising was unleashed which successfully routed the Mongolians. It happened at the time of the full moon,which,some say,explains why moonquakes are eaten at this time.

Moonquakes are usually stamped with Chinese characters indicating the name of the ry and the type of filling used. Some ries will even stamp them with your family name so that you can give personalized ones to friends and family.

They are usually presented in boxes of four which indicate the four phases of the moon. Traditional moonquakes are made with melted lard,but today vegetable oil is more often used in the interests of health.

Moonquakes are not for the diet-conscious as they are loaded with calories. The best way to wash down one of these sticky cakes is with a cup of Chinese tea,especially Jasmine or Chrysanthemum tea,which aids the digestion.

在我们的身边就有很多污染环境的污染物,比如说:大量的生活废弃品、废塑袋、一次性饭盒、果皮纸屑等等。污染物对环境来说,毫无疑问,肯定有很大的危害。

Pollutants, around us there are a lot of pollution of the environment such as: a large number of waste products, waste plastic bags, disposable lunch boxes, litter and so on. There is no doubt that the environment pollution, great harm, must have.

就拿我们学校来说吧,学校里有些学生经常乱扔果皮、纸屑,不仅影响了环境,更糟糕的是别人一不小心踩到了,就有可能滑倒;在班里,有些同学的椅子上还有些瓜子壳、铅笔屑。还有爱吃糖的同学经常往地上吐泡泡糖,别人要是踩上,粘在脚底下取不掉多伤情绪啊。还有些调皮的同学,用蜡笔在门上和墙壁上乱写乱画,破坏了教室的清洁。

Take our school, school, some students often throw the peel, wastepaper, not only affects the environment, even worse is that someone accidentally stepped on, it is possible to slip; in the class, some students of the chair and some melon seeds shell, pencil shavings. The students often love candy and bubble gum to spit on the ground, if someone stepped on, stick in the soles of the feet to take away much emotion. Some naughty students, crayon scribbled on the door and the wall graffiti, destroying the classroom clean.

像上面所说的那样破坏环境的人和事,真是举不胜举。我真想对人类说:“保护环境,人人有责。”让我们从现在做起,从自己做起,从小事做起,爱护我们身边的一草一木,为保护环境建设我们美好的的家园作出自己的贡献。

The destruction of the environment people and things as mentioned above, it is too numerous to mention. I really want to say: "the human Protect environment, everyones responsibility." Let us start from now, from ourselves, from the little things around us, take good care of every tree and bush, to make their own contribution to the Protect environment to build our beautiful homeland.
