俗话说的好“笼子大了什么鸟都有”。目前来看，中国这个笼子可是不小，随着广播、电视、报纸、网络等众多媒体的普及，让我们更加清晰的看到了这个变态的世界!

我个人认为，在我生活的这个世界中存在三大类变态人群，总的来说分为三派：不男不女派、惨无人道派、不知廉耻派。下文将逐个进行阐述。

一、不男不女派

代表人物：春哥、曾哥、著姐、师洋等

写着这些名字我就想吐，随着中国经济快速发展，人民生活水平逐步提高，百姓饮食结构发生重大变化，随之诞生了目前变态的不男不女派!春哥的阳刚气质让人惊叹，曾哥绵羊的嗓音让人发指，著姐幽美的脸蛋让人销魂，师洋妩媚的身姿让人恶心。这种变态人群的出现和媒体的变态宣传是分不开的，那些不知美丑的编导，让此派人群得以发扬光大。哥啊，姐啊，一个个变态的人(这里用“人”这个字定义有些不够恰当了)在舞台上尽情施展着变态的才华，中国上下五千年的文化在21世纪的今天就得到了这样的体现?杯具啊!

二、惨无人道派

代表：富士康、综合执法、拆迁办

13跳刚刚结束，竞相跳楼的员工着实让富士康火了一把，纠结原因，富士康惨无人道的工作方式是根本原因，每天超工时、超体力、超封闭的工作环境让工作在一线的员工身心备受煎熬，员工思想活动都极度封闭，加之领导层的层层施压和管理制度的约制，最终导致了13跳的悲惨结果。根据最新报道，富士康在加薪30%后再次加薪66%给员工，我想说一句话，就一句“你TM早干嘛去了?!”

对于综合执法和拆迁办的惨无人道，我想大家从一个个暴力的视频和一张张血腥的照片已经领略到了。作为国家执法机构竟然屡屡出现暴力执法的行为，不如去开家武馆，就算习武之人，也有这么句话“习武先习德”，就目前的这种状态，这帮人，顶多算个B社会群体。执法人员擅自损毁摊位，殴打商贩，一个个被打商贩倒在血泊中，让我们看了不禁感到心寒。综合执法人员和拆迁办人员的暴力执法，让我想问问，你爸没教过你“君子动口不动手么”，你爸没教过你我教你，说你们“君子”简直玷污了这美丽的词汇，你丫就是个孙子。2010年“两会”提出“讲文明，促和谐”的口号，如果社会中继续存在这些执法的人渣，文明从何而来?和谐从何而来?行政执法部门应该好好反思!

三、不知廉耻派

代表人物：凤姐、周立波

此派也是借助媒体的力量诞生的，个人认为广电总局整天封BT、封黄片、封**的，是不是先把这些变态的人和媒体封一封啊，还我们一个正常的生活环境。

对于凤姐，我想问问你妈，你是胎生的吗?你妈生你的时候吃了啥违禁药物了。引用口才帝——小河北对你的形容“悟净的发型，八戒的脸，京巴的鼻子，吉娃娃的眼，齐天大圣见了您都情不自禁的喊一句，妖怪你哪里跑?”我们是要有自己的理想，和心目中的那个他/她，但是我们更要现实，古人云“窈窕淑女，君子好逑”就您那模样，除了瞎子和牲口，恐怕很少有人求了~

对于周立波，周老师，我真的无法定义你是不是一个中国人了，其精彩的“海派牲口”演说已经达到了男人看了半身不遂，女人听了不孕不育的非凡效果了。为了讨好自己身边那1300号观众，把全国人民都得罪了，这种恬不知耻的行为值得全国人民的唾弃。这里不得不再次引用小河北对于周立波的评论“无论科技怎么发达，社会怎么创新，人的外表怎么改变，我们的心底决不能忘本，每位艺人都有自己固定的圈子和铁杆的粉丝，你爱你的舞台，没有错，但你不能为了抬高自己的一亩三分地儿践踏别人的艺术地位。什么南方人北方人，我们长在亚洲的东方，我们都是中国人!”你配做中国人么?!如果反对你的人比支持你的人多的话，你应该反思一下了，你还有没有必要存活在这个舞台上!

在世界文化、管理相互融通的当今，各种文化管理元素和理念走进中国，但我没有在任何国家看到如此变态的现象(除了打八辈祖宗就变态的小日本)也许激烈的竞争让我们压力过大，欲求以这种变态的方式来释放压力。如果这种变态的现象形成了一种气候，乃是中华民族的一大悲哀啊!现在从根本上要解决的是国民的总体素质，教育首当其冲，就目前这种教育方式，只能创造出越来越多极端变态的人群。

眼前，国家要做的就是：取消高考，还学生一片蓝天!

导语：我的家里每天都有欢笑声，下面是yuwenmi小编为大家整理的优秀作文，欢迎阅读与借鉴，谢谢!

In my big family, there are six members. They are my grandfather, my grandmother, my father, my mother, my little brother and I. We live together happily.

My grandfather and grandmother are in their seventies. My grandfather has something wrong with his heart, while my grandmother is in good health. Last summer, I taught her to play chess. She was so intrested in it that I had to play with her all day on weekends!

My father is a doctor and my mother is a middle school teacher. They are all very busy and hard-working. Although sometimes they disagree with each other, they respect each other.

My little brother is only two years old. He is very lovely. He has a round face and two big black eyes. There are two dimples on his cheeks when he smiles just like me. I often can’t help kissing him. Sometimes he is very naughty. When I don’t want to get up in the morning, he comes to pinch my ear to wake me, and runs away quickly when I open my eyes angrily.

What a harmonious family we have! I love my family forever!

【参考译文】

在我的大家庭里，有六个成员。他们是我的爷爷，奶奶，爸爸，妈妈，弟弟和我。

我爷爷和奶奶七十多岁了。我爷爷的心脏有点问题，而我的祖母身体很好。去年夏天，我教她下棋。她很感兴趣，我只好跟她玩一整天在周末!

我父亲是医生，我母亲是中学教师。他们都很忙，工作很努力。虽然有时他们意见不一致，但他们彼此尊重。

我的弟弟只有2岁。他非常可爱。他有一张圆圆的脸和两只大大的黑眼睛。他的脸上有两个酒窝，他笑得跟我一样。我常常忍不住吻他。有时他很调皮。当我早上不想起床时，他会来抓我的耳朵叫醒我，当我愤怒地睁开眼睛时，我很快就跑开了。

我们的家庭和睦和睦!我永远爱我的家人!

人们总以为淡水是取之不尽的，实际上淡水资源是很有限的。请谈谈你的看法。

It is generally believed that there is a good supply of fresh water. But to our disappointment, the fact is just the opposite.

As we can see, the world population is growing rapidly day by day. So enough fresh water is needed to feed such a big population. Whats more, with the development of industry, factories and vehicles produce poisonous gases or wastes, which consequently results in the pollution of water. Though fresh, a good amount of it can no longer be used. Only quite limited fresh water resource is available to human beings. So its high time for us human beings to take quick action to protect water resource. Stop pollution and save water, otherwise, we cannot survive on the earth.

With fresh water, the world will be prosperous.

Mass media are very important tools of communication,through which information is passed to even the farthest end of the world. They enable us to communicate with each other by helping us to overcome the barriers of time and apace.

大众媒体是非常重要的沟通工具,通过它信息可以传递到世界的尽头。他们能够使我们互相交流,帮助我们克服时间和空间的障碍。

Mass media function in various ways. Below are listed the most commonly seen.

大众传媒有各种各样的功能。下列是最常见的。

First, mass media keep us well informed of the happenings of the world which would otherwise remain unknown.

首先,通过大众传媒,我们可以对风云变幻的世界了如指掌,否则我们就会一无所知。

Second, mass media persuade us mostly through advertisements. As we can see, newspapers, magazines and TV are filled with all kinds of colourful, persuasive advertisements which tempt us to buy their products.

第二,大众媒体主要通过广告说服我们。正如我们所看到的,报纸、杂志和电视都充满了各种色彩鲜艳的、有说服力的广告,引诱我们购买他们的产品。

Third, mass media give us entertainment. Television and radio broadcasting provide us with a big variety of programmes every day. Films, books, magazines, etc. give us daily amusement.

第三,大众媒体让我们娱乐。电视和无线电广播每天给我们提供种类繁多的节目。电影、书籍、杂志等,给我们日常的娱乐。

In a word, mass media will be all the more important in the future and their function will enormously expand.Limited by apace, only a few examples are mentioned here.

总之，大众媒体将在未来将变得更重要，他们的功能也将极大地扩大。空间有限，在这里之举了少数的例子。

by the time children enter school, they’ll have spent up to one-third of their waking hours in front of tv. the enormous influence of television is just beginning to be realized. while many parents take television as an electronic baby-sitter, they neglect the fact that television may be more harmful than it is beneficial to children.

those who encourage small children to watch television claim that many programs for children on tv are helpful to develop children’s interest and enrich their knowledge. they also argue that preoccupied with tv programs, children are prevented from doing mischief. although at a first glance these arguments sound true, the behavior of some children doesn’t seem to prove them.

in the first place, programs for children are not always beneficial to them. one science fiction serial keeps telling about some supernatural beings who can fly and always fight against evildoers. after watching several episodes, a small child was so enchanted that he imitated the heroes and “flew” from his room on the second floor. there are also reports of children running away from home to the mountains to practice martial art. these incidents are naturally credited with tv programs for children.

further, being preoccupied with tv programs is not a good way for avoiding mischief. in the days before tv, parents used to gather together with their children, telling stories or reading poems to them. the communication between parents and children was thus better, so it was easier for children to understand what was good conduct.those who approve of children’s watching tv neglect television’s bad effects on children. firstly, children are surrounded and bombarded by commercials for toys and foods. they are tempted into becoming consumers. they earnestly ask their parents to buy things which they do not really need. as a result, the parents are in a financial dilemma, and the children themselves always become victims of bad products because of false advertising.

another bad effect of television is that children are over-exposed to violence. they watch hours of murders, fights, and crimes every week, with no adult around to tell them that life is not like that most of the time. the effect of the heavy dose of violence is to suggest to children that violence is an ordinary way of life, and that shooting and cheating are ways to success.most serious of all, children who often watch tv are becoming passive. they just sit back and let things happen to them. children are inventive; they have the ability to imagine a whole world of their own. but what happens when their imagination is not needed, when tv does all the imagination for them? obviously, these children are not going to grow up as inventive and imaginative as their parents, for they have been robbed of creative impulses by television.

to sum up, children’s indulgence in television is harmful. the problem, nevertheless, is not one of prohibition. parents should supervise and guide their children’s watching tv instead of parking them in front of the tube, hoping it will act as a baby-sitter.

高考英语作文 My Friend（我的朋友）

Zhang Dong is my best friend. He entered our class last semester. He is a boy. Both of us are good at English, so we often have a chat in English in our spare time.

He not only gets good marks in all subjects but also is very kind and modest. He loves popular songs and also classical music.

假如你上周末参加了某旅行社组织的所谓生态游，你觉得名不副实。请你根据下表内容把自己经历的这次生态游和对真正生态游的看法写出来。

所谓的生态游：

欣赏风景，享受新鲜空气

有人摘花、捉鸟、乱扔垃圾

真正的生态游

享受自然，同时也是一种责任

要保护自然，保护野生动物

带走美好回忆，留下青山绿水

Last weekend I went on an eco-travel with a travel agency. All the way we enjoyed the beautiful scenery and fresh air. But a few of us picked flowers as while going sightseeing. Some even tried to catch the birds they saw. What was worse, many tourists threw rubbish here and there. The rubbish may do harm to wildlife there.

I don’t think this is a true eco-travel. A true eco-travel is a tour that not only allows us to express our love for nature, but needs our responsibility as well. As we enjoy the beauty of nature, we should try our best to protect it. And we should also try to protect wildlife. A true eco-travel should be like this: take nothing away but your good memory; leave nothing behind but all the green trees and the clean water.

六：假设你是李明，最近你校的一份英语报纸正在校园出现的“涂鸦”现象开展讨论。请你根据以下要点写一封信给报纸编辑，发表你的看法。

(1)“涂鸦”丑陋难看。

(3)禁止“涂鸦”。

参考词汇：graffiti 涂鸦，(在墙上的)乱涂乱写

vandalism 对公共财物的有意破坏

Dear Editor,

Recently graffiti has become more noticeable in my college. I feel quite annoyed at them, especially when some of my classmates praise them as a kind of so-called art. Confronted with this impolite phenomenon, I can’t help asking myself: what is wrong with today’s teenagers?

In my opinion, graffiti is a form of vandalism. They are a mess and are ugly to look at. Meanwhile, walls are public places, and they should not be used to express personal views and feelings.

I really think vandalism should be stopped, and those who refuse to stop this bad practice should be punished. We should clear away these ugly expressions and drawings so that our college may return to its true self--a clean, quiet place for study, teaching and research.

Yours,

Li Ming

Some of us are having problems with our parents , as they often look into

our school bags or read our diaries . I fully understand why we are not

comfortable about it , but there’s no need to feel too sad. Our parents are

checking our bags or diaries to make sure we are not getting into any trouble .

They have probably heard some horrible stories about other kids and thought we

might do the same . Or perhaps they just want to connect with us but are doing

it all wrong . My suggestion is : Tell them we want them to trust us as much as

we’d like to trust them .If you don’t think you can talk to them , write them a

letter and leave it lying around ---they are bound to read it .

Thank you!

实现有效的沟通，建立良好的人际关系，不仅仅要善于言表，更要学会倾听。请你根据下表中所带给的信息，写一篇题为 “Being a Good Listener” 的英文演讲稿。

注意：

1、对所给要点，逐一陈述，适当发挥，不要简单翻译。

2、词数150左右。开头和结尾已经写好，不计入总词数。

3、演讲稿中不得提及考生所在学校及本人姓名。

Good afternoon， everyone。

The topic of my speech today is “Being a Good Listener”。

Good listening can always show respect， promote understanding， and improve interpersonal relationship。

Many people suggest that parents should listen more to their children， so they will understand them better， and find it easy to narrow the generation gap; teachers should listen more to their students， then they can meet their needs better， and place themselves in a good relationship with their students; students should listen more to their classmates， thus they will help and learn from each other， and a friendship is likely to be formed。

What I want to stress is that each of us should listen to others。 Show your respect and never stop others till they finish their talk; show you are interested by a supportive silence or a knowing smile; be open-minded to different opinions even though you don’t like them。 In a word， good listening can really enable us to get closer to each other。

Thank you for your listening!

【猜题理由】随着经济的高速发展，社会自然环境遭受严重污染。环保意识的培养和环保工作的开展成为国人，乃至世人共同关注的热点和焦点。对环保问题而言，"只要人人献出一点爱，世界将变成美好人间 !"此话题为学生熟知，与高中生的生活实际贴近，而且具有一定的开放性，使得每个学生都能够有话可说，符合新课标理念下的命题方向。

【构思点拨】首先简要介绍环保问题之重要，号召同学们行动起来，共同参与环保活动;其次就环保发出倡议，并征召志愿者。这样既把考生限定在一定范围之内，又给予了考生相当的发挥的自由，有助于考生的作文脱颖而出。

Dear brothers and sisters,

On behalf of the University Students Union, I, the Chairman of the Union , am earnestly calling for your active participation in our environmental protection campaign.

Do you cherish precio us opportunities to volunteer in our joint efforts in environmental protection? Here is a great one not to be missed by any enthusiastic youth; Right next Saturday, our university is to run a publicity campaign to advocate environmental protection across the city. The University Students Union will be in charge of recruitment of volunteers. Lets join our hands and take action immediately.

Yours sincerely,

高考英语作文中经常会出现写信的题材，下面语文迷网为大家整理了一些技巧，供大家阅读。

一、题型特点

改写： 通常情况下，改写类的写作命题可要求考生将一篇对话、留言、信件、电话记录或其他类型的语言材料改写成一篇短文。也有的试题要求考生能够根据所给的提示(汉语或英语)写一篇对话。这类试题大多要求考生将试题所提供的语言材料的主要内容，以记叙文的形式表达出来。试题可以规定考生以第几人称的形式来叙述这件事情，并且规定了一定的词数。

缩写： 这类命题通常要求学生将一篇较长的文章，缩写成一篇短文。这类命题通常要求学生把握原文中的主要内容，并且用自己的语言将其叙述出来。这类试题一般都会规定词数的范围。

续写： 这类试题通常给出了一件事情或一个故事的开头，要求考生根据自己的想象，将这件事情或故事写完整，使其结构完整，情节的发展自然合理。

扩写： 扩写实际上是改写的一个方面。这类命题要求考生能够依据所给定的较为简短的语言材料，扩写成为一篇符合字数要求的文章。这类试题一般来讲也对文章的字数或其它的方面作出了要求。

回信： 这类试题所提供的材料通常是英语信件的形式，要求考生能够根据所给信件的内容及回信中必须包含的要点写一封回信。

二、 写作 技巧

1. 认真审题，把握要求。 在审题的过程中，应注意把握试题所提供的条件、要求(通常以文字的形式出现)、体裁、词数、人称形式等。

2. 细读材料，把握中心。 一般说来，所给出的试题材料都是围绕一个中心展开的。它讲述的通常是一个小故事或小事件。这个小故事或小事件就是这我们所要表述的中心。

3. 初步构思，考虑用词。 在把所握文章的中心后，形成一个基本的框架，再考虑使用恰当的词语，包括恰当的短语和句型，以充分地表达文章的内容。在用词方面，应尽可能地充分利用所学的短语或句型，还应注意适当使用高级词汇、复杂的结构等，这在近年的高考阅卷过程中反复强调了这一点。

4. 联词成句，组段成文。 运用适当的单词或短语正确表达文章中各个要点。然后使用正确的过渡词将单个的句子来连接起来。连接时，要注意使用适当的连接词语或过渡性语句，以使语句间的联系更为紧密，过渡更加自然。

This phenomenon exists for a number of reasons. First, … Second, … Third, …

这一现象的存在是有许多原因的.首先，……;第二,，……;第三，……

According to the statistics of the survey, half of the graduates accepted their teachers’ suggestions for the reason that teachers have a better understanding of their interests, specialties and schooling experiences. 35% of the graduates followed their parents advice as they are used to obeying their arrangements and trusted their decision. 10% of the graduates preferred to make an independent choice as they hold that nobody know them better than themselves and since it is their rights to fill applications they hope to win respect from teachers and parents. The remaining 5% just made their choices accordingly after they got the results of the final published scores and ranking.

August 15 is one of the most important festivals of the Chinese nation -- the Mid-Autumn festival. On that day, people ate moon cakes, the moon, some places and lanterns, very lively.

The reason for the Mid-Autumn festival is that August is the second month of the autumn, the ancient time is called midautumn, because it is in the autumn and the middle of August, the folk are called Mid-Autumn festival.

On the eve of the Mid-Autumn festival, relatives and friends give gifts to each other, because moon cakes symbolize reunion. The styles of mooncakes are also full of beautiful fruit, such as pineapple, red dates, orange, and my favorite ice moon cakes...

On the day of the Mid-Autumn festival, people bought all kinds of things except moon cakes. Most of them were eaten. In the evening, the family ate reunion dinner, looking forward to the dark sky, hoping the moon would come out earlier.

At night, the moon came out, like a large disk. At this time, the family moved the tables and chairs and tea sets to the balcony, and all kinds of mooncakes were taken together. They looked at the moon, and remembered their loved ones who could not go home. Some people raise a cup in the moonlight, the hope is good; Fireworks rise and bloom in the night sky!

The Mid-Autumn festival is a joyous occasion for our family. It is a time for us to miss our loved ones. It is an indelible day.

如果有恒心坚持的话，以上两种度过星期天的方式毫无疑问是很有益的。

[高考英语满分作文如何度过星期天

Transportation during the Spring Festival, called chunyun in Chinese, is an annual test on Chinas transportation systems.

The Spring Festival, also known as the Chinese Lunar New Year, which falls in late January or early February according to Gregorian calendar, is the most important festival for the Chinese as it is an occasion for reunions with family and friends.

Particularly, people hope to return home from work or study to have a reunion dinner with families on the Lunar New Years Eve.

Hundreds of millions of Chinese people are on journey as the Spring Festival travel season begins. Therefore, Chunyun has created enormous pressure on Chinas transportation sector.

The Ministry of Railway and the National Development and Reform Commission usually issue circulars during the period, demanding that coordination mechanisms be established among transportation departments, different localities and police, and that countermeasures be made in place in case of emergencies to ensure efficiency and a complete success during the peak travel season.

英语试卷满分150分，作文25分，占试卷总分的六分之一，表面看来不是很多，但是这25分相对于其他题型却比较容易获得，因此作文的写作技巧和方法十分重要。

一、英语写作的重要性

1.英语写作有益于扩充词汇量

口语所使用的语言一般是比较简单和常用的。而在用英语写作时，所使用的语言则是多种多样的。从极简单到较复杂的语言都要使用，所使用的词汇和句型也比口语中使用的相对要多，这对英语词汇量的扩充有很大帮助。

2.英语写作训练有助于提高逻辑思考及分析能力

写一篇作文，不论长短，都需要妥善地组织材料，得出结论，作到重点突出，条理清楚。这样，在锻炼写作能力的同时，也锻炼了分析与处理问题的能力。

3.英语写作有助于提高使用英语的准确性

只要写一个句子，更不用说一段，一篇，就要力求拼写，用词，句法，标点等完全正确，而且与前后句紧密连贯。写和说不同，写好后可以检查修改，而一次修改就是一次提高。写得越多，语言使用就会越准确。

4.英语写作有助于阅读，听力，口语，翻译等能力的提高

自己知道写作的甘苦，对别人的写作技巧就会乐于学习。分析问题的能力提高了，听别人说话就会善于抓住要点。语言质量提高了，口语也会准确很多。

二、如何写好一篇英语作文

1.打好扎实的英语语言基础

要写好英语作文，首先必须掌握一定数量的英语单词。此外还得掌握好一定的英语语法知识。若有不太清楚的地方，应通过查阅语法书和词典来逐步解决，不能偷懒，随便乱写。

2.广泛进行英语阅读

专业作家的秘密之一就是：阅读，阅读，再阅读。阅读其他人的文章，并不是为了如法炮制，但我们可以把从其他作品中学到的东西融化到自己的文体和技巧中 去。当我们发现一段文章比自己能写出的任何东西好得多的时候，坐下来，对它进行反复研究琢磨。就同一题目，这位作者做了哪些我们不能做到的事情?模仿别人 技术上的长处，对写作来说极有益处。但仅靠阅读是不行的，因为它可以被用作不动笔的借口，还会成为一种医学专用剂。因此要记住：阅读是为了写作。

3.掌握一定的英语写作技巧

英语写作有许多技巧，如怎样选词，造句，怎样展开段落，各种体裁的英语作文应怎样布局谋篇等。只有对这些基本的写作技巧加以掌握，才能在英语写作时得心应手。

4.多观察多分析

写的时候首先考虑内容问题，问问自己写什么，并用英语来思考，那么在英语写作时，便不至于找不到话写。

5.多练习

常言道：Practice makes perfect.俗话亦说：文章读十篇，不如写一篇。大凡知名作家并不是一开始就写出了惊人之作。他们的作品都是在艰苦的写作实践中得到提高的。我们在学 习英语写作时也应多练，可采取写英文日记，周记，课文摘要等形式加以训练，也可找个writ—ing partner(写作伙伴)相互督促，相互学习，相互提高。

三、如何在重大考试中写好作文

1.合理分配时间

大学英语四六级短文写作题规定时间是30分钟，所以应首先保证写作时间。虽然写作题是考试的最后一题，但一定要确保写作题的时间不被其它题目挤占。然而 在多次四六级考试监考中，我们发现很多同学在前面部分花费太多时间，以致于只有十几分钟甚至几分钟来写作文，写的效果和得分情况可想而知。其实我们可以自 己拟订一个方案：首先，7分钟左右审题，构思，拟订提纲;其次，20分钟写作;最后，3分钟左右检查修改。

2.审题

审题是写作成功与否的重要因素之一。一定要留出约3分钟左右的时间审题，构思，打腹稿，“凡事预则立，不预则废。”然而不少考生由于没掌握好时间，一拿 到作文题，便匆匆下笔，没有构思，结果想到哪写到哪，往往离题千里，事倍功半。所以一定要在动笔之前花几分钟，认真审题，仔细寻找题目提供的信息(包括英 文，中文，图画，数字等)，然后对这些信息加以认真分析，弄清题意，确定中心思想。

3.拟写提纲

一般应试作文要围绕提纲，首先要明白提纲的作用，一是告诉你应写什么，二是为你的内容或思想规定写作顺序，三是告诉你每段的内容;四是帮助你自始至终紧密围绕规定的主题。在拟写提纲时，首先要定好文章分几段写，各段的中心是什么，要用什么细节才能说明所规定好的中心。

4.正式作文

在正式作文时，应按所列的提纲来进行。写作还应注意以下几点：首先，一定要下工夫写好每一段的主题句，尤其是第一段的主题句。A good beginning makes a good ending.主题句能否写好关系着阅卷人对你的作文的第一印象。高考作文是分档给分，即阅卷人根据总体印象给出某一档的分数，然后再在这一档上下进行微 调。其次，要尽量保持卷面整洁。因为作文是人工评卷，卷面干净整洁会给阅卷人很好的印象，对提高分数档次很有好处。然而很多考生不注意标点，语法及单词大 小写，经常写了又划，划了又写，从而使卷面很糟糕而影响得分。因此一定不要轻视卷面整洁这一点。第三，一定要写够字数。字数不够扣分是很严格的。但是也应 注意行文简明扼要，层次分明，切忌写一些与主题无关的话来凑字数。有的考生写得杂乱无章，篇幅过长，使阅卷人看得心烦，这也不可取。第四，一定要沉着应 战，保持平静的心理状态。不要因为作文是最后一题，离交卷时间近就不停看表，造成不必要的紧张。考试时良好的心理状态是正常发挥的必要保证。

总之，英语写作固然难，但由于其具有举足轻重的作用，所以我们应该给予重视。“功夫不负有心人”，相信只要我们树立必胜的信心，持之以恒地练习，就一定会取得成效。
