小作文一般以书信居多,因此,在写作时要注意一下两点。

第一,既然是书信,一定要按照书信的格式写作。阅卷老师最先注意到的就是格式,其次才通过阅读看看内容是否符合要求。不注意格式,肯定被扣分。还不熟悉书信格式的同学赶紧多多练习。

第二,要仔细审题。这个问题年年在强调,但是年年有人不注意,写作时往往会跑题。这样怎么能得高分?考试时时间很紧张,怎样快速审题?笔者建议大家首先要脑子里要迅速构建一副写作场景,接下来要抓住关键词,然后围绕场景和关键词进行扩展。这一点不是说一说看一看就能掌握,需要同学们现在多做强化训练。

具体写作就按照题目要求一个点写一段,总共分三段。这样给人的印象是重点突出、条理清晰。下面就以2014年小作文为例,简单分析一下每一段怎么写。

称呼:Dear John,注意称呼中,所有实词首字母全部大写,Dear John后面的逗号不可丢,也不能写成冒号。

正文:

第一段:写作内容需涵盖两点:自我介绍,写信目的。文章开门见山就是自我介绍,用到了这样的表达:I am Li Ming who will go to study in your university and live together with you in one department. 其中的“I am …who…”这个句型来自于建议信的表达,放在这里也十分贴切。接下一句话表明了写信目的:Now I am writing this letter to tell you some of my habits and ask you for some suggestions to adapt myself there.

第二段:写作内容为习惯介绍以及寻求建议。首先,介绍自己的生活习惯,自己一般早上六点起床外出锻炼;周末一般在图书馆看书;其次,希望John就如何适应当地生活给自己一些建议。

第三段:写作内容表示期待,良好祝愿。用到了这样的表达:I am looking forward to seeing you soon and wish everything goes well.

落款:Yours sincerely, 特别提醒sincerely后面逗号不能丢;

签名:Li Ming,特别注意Li Ming 后面一定不能出现句点。

附注:

1、格式

称呼:英语应用文称呼有这样的特点,如果是不认识的人,一般称呼为敬词+尊称。例如,DearSirorMadam或者ToWhomItMayConcern(需注意每个单词首字母都大写);如果是写给关系正式的某团体或个人,称呼为敬词+尊称+名。例如,DearMr.xx或DearMs.xx;;对于关系较亲密的人可以直呼其名,即Dearxx。需要注意的是:1.称呼要顶格写;2.称呼之后要加逗号或者冒号(推荐大家用逗号,因为历年的高分范文都是用逗号的)。

正文:正文格式一般有两种格式,一是缩进式,即首段开头空四个字母,段落之间不空行;一是齐头式,即每段开头不空格,但是各段之间空一行。老师建议考生采用缩进式,因为如果用齐头式,段间空行的话很可能答题空间不够,导致字数不够。

2、语言

写作用词准确是最基础的要求之一。其次,句型可以多变,例如既有并列句,也有复合句,还有从句,但注意语法运用要正确。此外还要注意,正式语言一般是写给具有正式关系的团体或机构,这种情况不用缩略语和口语用法。除了正式的文体以外,其他的文体皆为非正式文体,像写给朋友的书信等。

一般小作文的考查要求中会体现出写该篇的目的和场合,所以考生在写作时要注意针对不同场合使用不同语言,使交流得以进行。另外,考生也要注意不同的应用文有不同的用语。建议考生对某些应用文的格式和习惯用语,应该加以熟悉和背诵,以便运用自如。

3、其他

考生在考试时注意在看到题目要求后不要忙于动笔,虽说小作文的字数充其量在一百多个单词,但是依旧要在脑子里理清思路。最好能够在仔细审题以后,认真列个提纲,这样更有利于思路清晰。写作时,注意表达清楚以下几个方面:首先交代清楚写信目的;其次为了让阅卷者对你的文章结构及表意一目了然,注意关联词或衔接词的运用;接下来,应该对个人的观点进行阐述(在写作有此必要的时候)。最后,行文间要注意简化描述,用简短的语句代替冗长的语句。在作文完成的时候,应该检查、修改,以免遗漏一些需要表达清楚的要点和细节。

1.?????? Proverbs

1. A graduation ceremony is an event where the commencement speaker tells thousands of students dressed in identical caps and gowns that individuality is the key to success.

2. The primary purpose of a liberal education is to make one’s mind a pleasant place in which to spend one’s time.

3. Next in importance to freedom and justice is popular education, without which neither freedom nor justice can be permanently maintained.

4. The classroom--not the trench--is the frontier of freedom now and forevermore.

5. Education’s purpose is to replace an empty mind with an open one.

6. It is the purpose of education to help us become autonomous, creative, inquiring people who have the will and intelligence to create our own destiny.

7. You see, real ongoing, lifelong education doesn’t answer questions; it provokes them.

8. People will pay more to be entertained than educated.

9.the most important function of education at any level is to develop the personality of the individual and the significance of his life to himself and to others. This is the basic architecture of a life; the rest is ornamentation and decoration of the structure.

10. The essence of our efforts to see that every child has a chance must be to assure each as equal opportunity, not to become equal, but to become different-to realize whatever unique potential of body, mind, and spirit he or she possesses.

11. A great teacher never strives to explain his vision-he simply invites you to stand beside him and see for yourself.

12. If you can read and don’, you are an illiterate by choice.

2. Damaging Research

A study by National Parent-Teacher Organization revealed that in the average American school, eighteen negatives are identified for every positive that is pointed out. The Wisconsin study revealed that when children enter the first grade, 80 percent of them feel pretty good themselves, but by the time they get to the sixth grade, only 10 percent of them have good self-images.

3. Education and Citizenship

An important aspect of education in the United States is the relationship between education and citizenship. Throughout its history this nation has emphasized public education as a means of transmitting democratic values, creating equality of opportunity, and preparing new generations of citizens to function in society. In addition, the schools have been expected to help shape society itself. During the 1950s, for example, efforts to combat racial segregation focused on the schools. Later, when the Soviet Union launched the first orbiting satellite, American schools and colleges came under intense pressure and were offered many incentives to improve their science and mathematics programs so that the nations would not fall behind the Soviet Union in scientific and technological capabilities.

Education is often viewed as a tool for solving social problems, especially social inequality. The schools, t is thought, can transform young people from vastly different backgrounds into competent, upwardly mobile adults. Yet these goals seem almost impossible to attain. In recent years, in fact, public education has been at the center of numerous controversies arising from the gap between the ideal and the reality. Part of the problem is that different groups in society have different have different expectations. Some feel that children should be taught basic job-related skills; still others believe education should not only prepare children to compete in society but also help them maintain their cultural identity (and, in the case of Hispanic children, their language). On the other hand, policymakers concerned with education emphasize the need to increase the level of student achievement and to improve parents in their children’s education.

Some reformers and critics have called attention to the need to link formal schooling with programs designed to address social problems. Sociologist Charles Moscos, for example, is a leader in the movement to expand programs like the Peace Corps, Vista, and Outward Bound into a system of voluntary national service. National service, as Moscos defines it, would entail “the full-time undertaking of public duties by young people whether as citizen soldiers or civilian servers-who are paid subsistence wages” and serve for at least one year. In return for this period of service, the volunteers would receive assistance in paying for college or other educational expenses.

Advocates of national service and school-to-work programs believe that education does not have to be confined to formal schooling. In devising strategies to provide opportunities for young people to serve their society, they emphasize the educational value of citizenship experiences gained outside the classroom. At this writing there is little indication that national service will become a new educational institution in the United States, although the concept is steadily gaining support among educators and social critics.

4. The Teacher’s Role

Given the undeniable importance of classroom experience, sociologists have done a considerable amount of research on what goes on in the classroom. Often they start from the premise that, along with the influence of peers, students’ experiences in the classroom are of central importance to their later development. One study examined the impact of a single first-grade teacher on her students’ subsequent adult status. The surprising results of this study have important implications. It is evident that good teachers can make a big difference in children’s lives, a fact that gives increased urgency to the need to improve the quality of primary-school teaching. The reforms carried out by educational leaders like James Comer suggest that when good teaching is combined with high levels of parental involvement the results can be even more dramatic.

Because the role of the teacher is to change the learner in some way, the teacher-student relationship is an important part of education. Sociologists have pointed out that this relationship is asymmetrical or unbalanced, with the teacher being in a position of authority and the student having little choice but to passively absorb the information provided by the teacher. In other words, in conventional classrooms there is little opportunity for the students to become actively involved in the learning process. On the other hand, students often develop strategies for undercutting the teacher’s authority: mentally withdrawing, interrupting, and the like. Hence, much current research assumes that students and teachers influence each other instead of assuming that the influence is always in a single direction.

5. Education Philosophy

For the past fifty years our schools have operated on the theories of John Dewey (1859-1953), an American educator and writer. Dewey believed hat the school’s job was to enhance the natural development of the growing child, rather than to pour information, for which the child had no context, into him or her. In the Dewey system, the child becomes the active agent in his own education, rather than a passive receptacle for facts.

Consequently, American schools are very enthusiastic about teaching “life skills” –logical thinking, analysis, creative problem--solving. The actual content of the lessons is secondary to the process, which is supposed to train the child to be able to handle whatever life may present, including all the unknowns of the future. Students and teachers both regard pure memorization as an uncreative and somewhat vulgar.

In addition to “life skills”, schools are assigned to solve the ever growing stoke of social problems. Racism, teenage pregnancy, alcoholism, drug use, reckless driving, and are just a few of the modern problems that have appeared on the school curriculum.

This all contributes to a high degree of social awareness in American youngsters.

6. Student Life

To the students, the most notable difference between elementary school and the higher levels is that in junior high they start “changing classes”. This means that rather than spending the day in one classroom, they switch classrooms to meet their different teachers. This gives them three or four minutes between classes in the hallways, where a great deal of the important social action of high school traditionally takes place. Students have lockers in these hallways, around which thy congregate.

Society in general does not take the business of studying very seriously. Schoolchildren have a great deal of free time, which they are encouraged to fill with extracurricular activities—sports, clubs, cheerleading, scouts—supposed to inculcate such qualities as leadership, sportsmanship, ability to organize, etc. those who don’t become engaged in such activities or have afterschool jobs have plenty of opportunity to “hang out”, listen to teenager music, and watch television.

Compared to other nations, American students do not have much homework. Studies also show that American parents have lower expectations for their children’s success in school than other nationalities do. (Historically, there has not been much correlation between American school success and success in later life.) “He’s just not a scholar”, the American parents might say, content that their son is on the swim team and doesn’t take drugs. (Some of the young do choose to study hard, for reason of their own, such as determining that the road to riches lies through Harvard Business School.)

What American schools do effectively teach is the competitive method. In innumerable ways children are pitted against each other—whether in classroom discussion, spelling bees, reading groups, or tests. Every classroom is expected to produce a scattering of A’s and F’s (teachers often grade A=excellent; B=good; C=average; D=poor; and F=failed). A teacher who gives all A’s looks too soft—so students are aware that they are competing for the limited number of top marks.

Foreign students sometimes don’t understand that copying from other people’s papers or from books is considered wrong and taken seriously. Here, it is important to show that you have done your own work and are displaying your own knowledge. It is more important than helping your friends to pass, whom we think do not deserve to pass unless they can provide their own answers. Group effort goes against the competitive grain, and American students do not study together as many Asians do. Many Asians in this country consider their group study habits a large contributor to their school success.

7. Adult Education

After complaining about many aspects of American life, a 40-year-old woman from Hong Kong concluded, “But where else could someone my age go back to school and get a degree in social work? Here you can change your whole life, start a new business, do what you really want to do.”

So at least to this person, school requirements weren’t inhibiting. And to millions of others, adult education is the path to a new career, or if not to a new career, to a new outlook. Schools generally encourage the older person who wants to start anew, and besides regular classes, schedule evening classes in special programs. Today there are so many people of retirement age in college that it is no longer remarkable.

8. Moral Relativism in American

Improving American education requires not doing new things but doing (and remembering) some good old things. At the time of our nation’s founding, Thomas Jefferson listed the requirements for a sound education in the Report of the Commissioners for the University of Virginia. In this landmark statement on American education, Jefferson wrote of the importance of education and writing, and of reading history, and geography. But he also emphasized the need “to instruct the mass of our citizens in these, their rights, interests, and duties, as men and citizens.” Jefferson believed education should aim at the improvement of both one’s “morals” and “faculties”. That has been the dominant view of the aims of American education for over two centuries. But a number of changes, most of them unsound, have diverted schools from these great pursuits. And the story of the loss of the school’s original moral mission explains a great deal.

Starting in the early seventies, “values clarification” programs started turning up in schools all over America. According to this philosophy, the schools were not to take part in their time-honored task of transmitting sound moral values; rather, they were to allow the child to “clarify” his own values (which adults, including parents, had no “rights” to criticize). The “values clarification” movement didn’t clarify values; it clarified wants and desires. This form of moral relativism said, in effect, that no set of values was right or wrong; everybody had an equal right to his own values; and all values were subjective, relative, and personal. This destructive view took hold with a vengeance.

In 1985 The York Times published an article quoting New York area educators, in slavish devotion to this new view, proclaiming, “They deliberately avoid trying to tell students what is ethically right and wrong.” The article told of one counseling session involving fifteen high school juniors and seniors. In the course of that session a student concluded that a fellow student had been foolish to return one thousand dollars she found in a purse at school. According to the article, when the youngsters asked the counselor’s opinion, “He told them he believed the girl had done the right thing, but that, of course, he would not try to force his values on them. ‘If I come from the position of what is wrong,’ he explained, ‘then I’m not their counselor.’”

Once upon a time, a counselor offered counselor, and he knew that an adult does not form character in the young by taking a stance of neutrality toward questions of right and wrong or by merely offering “choices” or “options”.

In response to the belief that adults and educators should teach children sound morals, one can expect from some quarters indignant objections (I’ve heard one version of it expressed countless times over the years): “Who are you to say what’s important?” or “Whose standards and judgments do we use?”

The correct response, it seems to me, is, is we ready to do away with standards and judgments? Is anyone going to argue seriously that a life of cheating and swindling is as worthy as a life of honest, hard work? Is anyone (with the exception of some literature professors at our elite universities) going to argue seriously the intellectual corollary, that a Marvel comic book is as good as Macbeth? Unless we are willing to embrace some pretty silly position, we’ve got to admit the need for moral and intellectual standards. The problem is that some people tend to regard anyone who would pronounce a definitive judgment as an unsophisticated Philistine or a closed-minded “elitist” trying to impose his view on everybody else.

The truth of the real world is that without standards and judgments, there can be no progress. Unless we are prepared to say irrational things—that nothing can be proven more valuable than anything else or that everything is equally worthless—we must ask the normative question. It may come, as a surprise to those who fell that to be “progressive” is to be value-neutral. But as Matthew Amold said, “the world is forwarded by having its attention fixed on the best things” and if the world can’t decide what the best things are, at least to some degree, then it follows that progress, and character, is in trouble. We shouldn’t be reluctant to declare that some things, some lives, books, ideas, and values are better than others. It is the responsibility of the schools to teach these better things.

At one time, we weren’t so reluctant to teach them. In the mid-nineteenth century, a diverse, widespread group of crusaders began to work for the public support of what was then called the “common school”, the forerunner of the public school. They were to be charged with the mission of school felt that the nation could fulfill its destiny only if every new generation was taught these values together in a common institution.

The leaders of the common school movement were mainly citizens who were prominent in their communities—businessmen, ministers, local civic and government officials. These people saw the schools as upholders of standards of individual morality and small incubators of civic and personal virtue; the founders of the public schools had faith that public education could teach good moral and civic character from a common ground of American values.

But in the past quarter century or so, some of the so-called experts became experts of value neutrality, and moral education was increasingly left in their hands. The commonsense view of parents and the publicthat schools should reinforce rather than undermine the values of home, family, and country, was increasingly rejected.

There are those today still that claim we are now too diverse a nation, that we consist of too many competing convictions and interests to instill common values. They are wrong. Of course we are a diverse people. We have always been a diverse people. And as Madison wrote in FederalistNo.10, the competing, balancing interests of a diverse people can help ensure the survival of liberty. But there are values that all American citizens share and that we should want all American students to know and to make their own: honesty, fairness, self-discipline, fidelity to task, friends, and family, personal responsibility, love of country, and belief in the principles of liberty, equality, and the freedom to practice one’s faith. The explicit teaching of these values is the legacy of the common schools, and it is a legacy to which we must return.

9. Schools Should Teach Values

People often said, “Yes, we should teach these values, but how do we teach them?” this question deserves a candid response, one that isn’t given often enough. It is by exposing our children to good character and inviting its imitation that we will transmit to them a moral foundation. This happens when teachers and principals, by their words and actions, embody sound convictions. As Oxford’s Mary Warnock has written, “You cannot teach morality without being committed to morality yourself; and you cannot be committed to morality yourself without holding that some things are right and others wrong.” The theologian Martin Buber wrote that the educator is distinguished from all other influences “by his will to take part in the stamping of character and by his consciousness that he represents in the eyes of the growing person a certain selection of what is, the selection of what is ‘right’, of what should be.” It is in this will, Buber says, in this clear standing for something, that the “vocation as an educator finds its fundamental expression.”

There is no escaping the fact that young people need as example principals and teachers who know the difference between right and wrong, good and bad, and who themselves exemplify high moral purpose.

As Education Secretary, I visited a class at Waterbury Elementary School in Waterbury, Vermont, and asked the students, “Is this a good school?” They answered, “Yes, this is a good school.” I asked them, “Why?” Among other things, one eight-year-old said, “The principal Mr. Riegel, makes good rules and everybody obeys them.” So I said, “Give me an example.” And another answered, “You can’t climb on the pipes in the bathroom. We don’t climb on the pipes and the principal doesn’t either.”

This example is probably too simple to please a lot of people who want to make the topic of moral education difficult, but there is something profound in the answer of those children, something education should pay more attention to. You can’t expect children to take messages about rules or morality seriously unless they see adults taking those rules seriously in their day-to-day affairs. Certain must be said, certain limits lay down, and certain examples set. There is no other way.

We should also do a better job at curriculum selection. The research shows that most “values education” exercises and separate courses in “moral reasoning” tend not to affect children’s behavior; if anything, they may leave children morally adrift. Where to turn? I believe our literature and our history are a rich quarry of moral literacy. We should mine that quarry. Children should have at their disposal a stock of examples illustrating what we believe to be right and wrong, good and bad—examples illustrating what are morally right and wrong can indeed be known and that there is a difference.

What kind of stories, historical events, and famous lives am I talking about? If we want our children to know about honesty, we should teach them about Abe Lincoln walking three miles to return six cents and conversely, about Aesop’s shepherd boy who cried wolf if we want them to know about courage, we should teach them about Joan of Arc, Horatius at the bridge, and Harriet Tubman and the Underground Railroad. If we want them to know about persistence in the face of adversity, they should know about the voyages of Columbus and the character of Washington during the Civil War. And our youngest should be told about the Little Engine That Could. If we want them to know about respect for the law, they should understand why Socrates told Crito: “No, I must submit to the decree of Athens.” If we want our children to respect the rights of others, they should read the Declaration of Independence, the Bill of Rights, the Gettysburg Address, and Martin Luther King, Jr.’ “Letter from Birmingham jail.” From the Bible they should know about Ruth’s loyalty to Naomi, Joseph’s forgiveness of his brothers, Jonathan’s friendship with David, the Good Samaritan’s kindness toward a stranger, and David’s cleverness and courage in facing Goliath.

These are only a few of the hundreds of examples we can call on. And we need not get into issues like nuclear war, abortion, creationism, or euthanasia. This may come as a disappointment to some people, but the fact is that the formation of character in young people is educationally a task different from, and prior to, the discussion of the great, difficult controversies of the day. First things come first. We should teach values the same way we teach other things: one step at a time. We should not use the fact that there are many difficult and controversial moral questions as an argument against basic instruction in the subject.

After all, we do not argue against teaching physics because laser physics is difficult, against teaching American history because there are heated disputes about the Founders’ intent. Every field has its complexities and its controversies. And every field has its basics, its fundamentals. So they are too with forming character and achieving moral literacy. As any parent knows, teaching character is a difficult task. But it is a crucial task, because we want our children to be healthy, happy, and successful but decent, strong, and good. None of this happens automatically; there is no genetic transmission of virtue. It takes the conscious, committed efforts of adults. It takes careful attention.

10. College Pressures

Mainly I try to remind that the road ahead is a long one and that it will have more unexpected turns than they think. There will be plenty of time to change jobs, change careers, change whole attitudes and approaches. They don not want to hear such liberating news. They want a map—right now – that they can follow unswervingly to career security, financial security, Social Security and, presumably, a prepaid grave.

What I wish for all students is some release from the clammy grip of the future. I wish them a chance to savor each segment of their education as an experience in itself and not as a grim preparation for the next step. I wish them the right to experiment, to trip and fall, to learn that defeat is as instructive as victory and is not the end of the world.

My wish, of course, is na?ve. One of the national gods venerated in our media—the million-dollar athlete, the wealthy executive—and glorified in our praise of possessions. In the presence of such a potent state religion, the young are growing up old.

I see four kinds of pressure working on college students today: economic pressure, parental pressure, peer pressure, and self-induced pressure. It is easy to look around for villains—to blame the colleges for charging too much money, the professors for assigning too much work, the parents for pushing their children too far, and the students for driving themselves too hard. But there are no villains: only victims.

“In the late 1960s.” one dean told me. “The typical question that I got from students was ‘Why is there so much suffering in the world’ or ‘how I can make a contribution?’ Today it’s ‘Do you think it would look better for getting into law school if I did a double major in history and political science, or just majored in one of them?’” many other deans confirmed this pattern. One said: “They are trying to find an edge—the intangible something that will look better on paper if two students are about equal.”

Note the emphasis on looking better. The transcript has become a sacred document, the passport to security. How one appears on paper is more important than how one appears in person. A is for Admirable and B is for Borderline, even though, in Yale’s official system of grading, A means “excellent” and B means “very good.” Today, looking very good is no longer good enough, especially for students who hope to go on to law school or medical school. They know that entrance into the better schools will be an entrance into the better law firms and better medical practices where they will make a lot of money. They also know that the odds are harsh. Yale Law School, for instance, matriculates 170students from an applicant pool of 3,700; Harvard enrolls 550 from a pool of 7,000.

It’s all very well for those of us who write letters of recommendation for our students to stress the qualities of humanity that will make them good lawyers or doctors. And it’s nice to think that admission officers are ready reading our letters and looking for the extra dimension of commitment or concern. Still, it would be hard for a student not to visualize these officers shuffling so many transcripts studded with As that they regard a B as positively shameful.

The pressure is almost as heavy on students who just want to graduate and get a job. Long gone are the days of the “gentleman’s C.” when students journeyed through college with a certain relaxation, sampling a wide variety of courses-music, art, philosophy, classics, anthropology, poetry, religion—that would send them out as liberally educated men and women. If I were an employer I would rather employ graduates who have this range and curiosity than those who narrowly pursued safe subjects and high grades. I know countless students whose inquiring minds exhilarate me. I like to hear the play of their ideas. I do not know if they are getting As or Cs, and I do not care. I also like them as people. The country needs them, and they will find satisfying jobs. I tell them to relax. They cannot.

Nor can I blame them. They live in a brutal economy. Tuition, room, and board at most private colleges now come to at least $7,000, not counting books and fees. This might seem to suggest that the colleges are getting rich. But they are equally battered by inflation. Tuition covers only 60 percent of what it costs to educate a student, and ordinarily the remainder comes from what college receives in endowments, grants, and gifts. Now, the remainder keeps being swallowed by the cruel costs—higher every year—of just opening the doors. Heating oil is up. Insurance is up. Postage is up. Health-premium costs are up. Everything is up. Deficits are up. We are witnessing in American the creation of a brotherhood of paupers—colleges, parents, and students, joined by the common bond of debt.

Today it is not unusual for a student, even if he works part time at college and full time during the summer, to accrue $5,000 in loans after four years—loans that he must start to repay within one year after graduation. Exhorted at commencement to go forth into the world, he is already behind as he goes forth. How could he not feel under pressure throughout college to prepare for this day of reckoning? I have used “he,” incidentally, only for brevity. Women at Yale are under no less pressure to justify their expensive education to themselves, their parents, and society. In fact, they are probably under more pressure. For although they leave college superbly equipped to bring fresh leadership to traditionally male jobs, society has not yet caught up with this fact.

Along with economic pressure goes parental pressure. Inevitably, the two are deeply intertwined.

I see many students taking pre-medical courses with joyless tenacity. They go off to their labs as if they were going to the dentist. It saddens me because I know tem in other corners of their life as cheerful people.

“Do you want to medical school?” I asked them.

“I guess so,” they say, without conviction, or “Not really.”

“Then why are you going?”

“Well, my parents want me to be a doctor. They are paying all this money and …”

Poor students, poor parents, they are caught in one of the oldest webs of love and duty and guilt. The parents mean will; they are trying to steer their sons and draughts toward a secure future. But the sons and daughter want to major in history or classics or philosophy—subjects with no “practical” value. Where’s the payoff on the humanities? It’s not easy to persuade such loving parents that the humanities do indeed pay off. The intellectual faculties developed by studying subjects like history and classics—an ability to synthesize and relate, to weigh cause and effect, to see events in perspective—are just the faculties that make creative leaders in business or almost any general field. Still, many fathers would rather put their money on courses that point toward specific profession—courses that are pre-law, pre-medical, pre-business, or, as I sometimes heard it put, “pre-rich.”

But the pressure on students is severe. They are truly torn. One part of them feels obliged to fulfill their parents’ expectations; after all, their parents are older and presumably wiser. Another part tells them that the expectations that are right for their parents are not right for them.

I know a student who wants to be an artist. She is very obviously an artist and will be a good one—she has already had several modest local exhibits. Meanwhile she is growing as a well-round person and taking humanistic subjects that will enrich the inner resources out of which her art will grow. But her father is strongly opposed. He thinks that an artist is a “dumb” thing to be. The student vacillates and tries to please everybody. She keeps up with her art somewhat furtively and takes some of the “dumb” courses her father wants her to take—at least they are dumb courses for her. She is a free spirit on a campus of tense students—no small achievement in it—and she deserves to follow her muse.

Peer pressure and self-induced pressure are also intertwined, and they begin almost at the beginning of freshman year.

“I had a freshman student I’ll call Linda,” one dean told me, “who came in and said she was under terrible pressure because her roommate, Barbara, was much brighter and studied all the time. I could not tell her that Barbara had come in two hours earlier to say the same thing about Linda.”

The story is almost funny—except that it is not. It is symptomatic of all the pressure put together. When every student thinks every other student is working harder and doing better, the only solution is to study harder still. I see students going off to the library every night after dinner and coming back when it closes at midnight. I wish they would sometimes forget about their peers and go to a movie. I hear the clacking of typewriters in the hours before dawn. I see the tension in their eyes when exams are approaching and papers are due: “Will I get everything done?”

Probably they won’t. They will get blocked. They will sleep. They will oversleep. They will bug out.

Part of the problem is that they are expected to do. A professor will assign five page papers. Several students will start writing ten page papers to impress him. Then more students will write ten page papers, and a few will raise the ante to fifteen. Pity the poor student who is still just doing the assignment.

“Once you have twenty or thirty percent of the student population deliberately overexerting,” one dean points out, “It’s bad for everybody. When a teacher gets more and more effort from his class, the student who is doing normal work can be perceived as not doing well. The tactic work, psychologically.”

Why cannot the professor just cut back and not accept longer papers? He can, and he probably will. But by then the term will be half over and the damage done. Grade fever is highly contagious and not easily reversed. Besides, the professor’s main concern is with his course. He knows his students only in relation to the course and does not know that they are also overexerting in their other courses. Nor is it really his business. He did not sign up for dealing with the student as a whole person and with all the emotional baggage the student brought along from home. That’s what deans, masters, chaplains, and psychiatrists are for.

To some extent this is nothing new: a certain number of professors have always been self-contained islands of scholarship and shyness, more comfortable with books than with people. But the new pauperism has widened the gap still further, for professors who actually like to spend time with students do not have as much time to spend. They are also overexerting. If they are young, they are busy trying to publish in order not to perish, hanging by their figure nails onto a shrinking profession.

If they are old and tenured, they are buried under the duties of administering departments—as departmental chairmen or members of committees—that have been thinned out by the budgetary axe.

Ultimately it will be the students’ own business to break the circles in which they are trapped. They are too young to be prisoners of their parents’ dreams and their classmates’ fears. They must be jolted into believing into themselves as unique men and women who have the power to shape their own future.

“Violence is being done to the undergraduate experience,” says Carlos Hortas. “College should be open-ended: at the end it should open many, many roads. Instead, students are choosing their goal in advance, and their choices narrow as they go along. It’s almost as if they think that the country has been codified in the type of jobs that exist-that they’ve got to fit into certain slots. Therefore, fit into the best paying slot.”

“They ought to take chances. Not taking chances will lead to life of colorless mediocrity. They’ll be comfortable. But something in the spirit will be missing.”

I have painted too drab a portrait of today’s students, making them seem a solemn lot. That is only half of their story; if they were so dreary I wouldn’t so thoroughly enjoy their company. The other half is that they are easy to like. They are quick to laugh and to offer friendship. They are not introverts. They are usually kind and are more considerate of one another than any student generation I have known.

Nor are they so obsessed with their studies that they avoid sports and extracurricular activities. On the contrary, they juggle their crowded hours to play on a variety of teams, perform with musical and dramatic groups, and write for campus publications. But this in turn is one more cause of anxiety. There are too many choices. Academically, they have 1,300 courses to select from; outside class they have to decide how much spare time they can spare and how to spend it.

This means that they engage in fewer extracurricular pursuits than their predecessors did. If they want to row on the crew and play in the symphony they will eliminate one; in the ‘60s they would have done both. They also tend to choose activities that are self-limiting. Drama, for instance, is flourishing in all twelve of Yale’s residential colleges, as it never has before. Students hurl themselves into these productions—as actors, directors, carpenters, and technicians—with a dedication to create the best possible play, knowing that the day will come when the run will end and they can get back to their studies.

They also cannot afford to be the willing slave of organizations like the Yale Daily News. Last spring at the one-hundredth anniversary banquet of that paper—who’s past chairmen include such once and future kings as Potter Stewart, Kingman Brewster, and William F. Buckley, Jr.—much was made of the fact that the editorial staff used to be small and totally committed and that “newsies” routinely worked fifty hours a week. In effect they belonged to a club; Newsies is how they defined themselves at Yale. Today’s students will one or two articles a week, when he can, and he defines himself as a student. I’ve never heard the word Newsie except at the banquet.

If I have described the modern undergraduate primarily as a driven creature who is largely ignoring the blithe spirit inside who keeps trying to come out and play, it’s because that’s where the crunch is, not only at Yale but throughout American education. It’s why I think we should all be worried about the values that are nurturing a generation so fearful of risk and so goal-obsessed at such an early age.

I tell students that there is no one “right” way to get ahead—that each of them is a different person, starting from a different point and bound for a different destination. I tell neither them that change is a tonic and that all the slots are not codified nor the frontiers closed. One of my ways of telling them is to invite men and women who have achieved success outside the academic world to come and talk informally with my students during the year. They are heads of companies or ad agencies, editors of magazines, politicians, public officials, television magnates, labor leaders, business executives, Broadway products, artists, writers, economists, photographers, scientists, historians—a mixed bag of achievers.

I asked them to say a few words about how they got started. The students assume that they started in their present profession and knew all along that it was what they wanted to do. Luckily for me, most of them got into their field by a circuitous route, to their surprise, after many detours. The students are startled. They can hardly conceive of a career that was not pre-planned. They can hardly imagine allowing the hand of God or chance to nudge them down some unforeseen trail.

11. To Err Is Wrong

In the summer of 1979, Boston Red Sox first baseman Carl Yastrzemski became the fifteenth player in baseball history to reach the three thousand hit plateaus. This event drew a lot of media attention, and for about a week prior to the attainment of this goal, hundreds of reports covered Yaz’s every more. Finally, one reporter asked, “Hey Yaz, aren’t you afraid all of this attention will go to your head?” Yastrzemski replied, “I look at this way: in my career I’ve been up to bat over ten thousand times. That means I’ve been unsuccessful at the plate over seven thousand times. That fact alone keeps me from getting a swollen head.”?

Most people consider success and failure as opposites, but they are actually both products of the same process. As Yaz suggest, an activity that produces a hit may also produce a miss. It is the same with creative thinking; the same energy that generates good creative ideas also produces errors.

Many people, however, are not comfortable with errors. Our educational system, based on “the right answer” belief, cultivates our thinking in another, more conservative way. From an early age, we are taught that right answers are good and incorrect answers are bad. This value is deeply embedded in the incentive system used in most schools:

Right over 90% of the time = “A”

Right over 80% of the time = “B~”

Right over 70% of the time = “C~” Right over 60% of the time = “D~” Less than 60% correct, you fail.

From this we learn to be right as often as possible and to keep our mistakes to a minimum. We learn, in other words, that “to err is wrong.

Playing It Safe

With this kind of attitude, you aren’t going to be taking too many chances. If you learn that failing even a litter penalizes you (e.g., being wrong only 15% of the time garners you only a “B” performance), you learn not to make mistakes. And more important, you learn not to put yourself to situation where you might fall. This leads to conservative thought pattern designed to avoid the stigma our society puts on “failure”.

I have a friend who recently graduated from college with a Master’s degree in Journalism. For the last six month, she has been trying to find a job, but to no avail. I talked with her about situation, and realized that her problem is that she doesn’t know how to fail. She went through eighteen years of schooling to try any approaches where she might fail. She has been conditioned to believe that failure is bad in and of itself, rather than a potential stepping-stone to new ideas.

Look around. How many middle managers, housewives, administrators, teachers, and other people do you see who are to try anything new because of this failure? Most of us have learned not to make mistakes in public. As a result, we remove ourselves from many learning experience except for those occurring in the most private of circumstances.

Different Logic

From a practical point of view, “to err is wrong” makes sense. Our survival in the everyday world requires us to perform thousand of small tasks without failure. Think about it: you wouldn’t last very long if you were to step out in front of traffic or stick your hand a pot of boiling water. In addition, engineers whose bridges collapse, stock brokers who lose money for their clients, and copywriters whose ad campaigns decrease sales won’t keep their jobs very long.

Nevertheless, too great an adherence to the belief “to err is wrong” can greatly undermine your attempts to generate new ideas. If you are more concerned with producing right answers than generating original ideas, you’ll probably make uncritical use of the rules, formulae, and procedures used to obtain these right answers. By doing this, you’ll by-pass the germinal phase of the creative process, and thus spend litter time testing assumptions, challenging the rules, asking what-if questions, or just playing around with the problem. All of these techniques will produce some incorrect answers, but in the germinal phase errors are viewed as a necessary by-product of creative thinking. As Yaz would put it, “if you want the hits, be prepared for the misses.” That’s the way the game of life goes.

Errors as Stepping Stones

Whenever an error pops up, the usual response is “Jeez, another screw up, what went wrong this time?” the creative thinker, on the other hand, will realize the potential value of errors, and perhaps say something like, “Would you look at that! Where can it lead our thinking?” and then he or she will go on to use the error as a stepping stone to a new idea. As a matter of fact, the whole history of discovery is filed with people who used erroneous assumptions and failed ideas as stepping-stones to new ideas. Columbus thought he was finding a shorter route to India. Johannes Kepler stumbled on to the idea of interplanetary gravity because of assumptions that were right for the wrong reasons. And, Thomas Edison knew 1800 ways not to build a light bulb.

The following story about the automotive genius Charles Kettering exemplifies the spirit of working through erroneous assumptions to good ideas. In 1912, when the automobile industry was just beginning to grow, Kettering was interested in improving gasoline engine efficiency. The problem he faced was“knockthe phenomenon in which gasoline takes too long to burn in the cylinder-thereby reducing efficiency.

Kettering began searching for ways to eliminate the “knock.” He thought to him, “How can I get the gasoline to combust in the cylinder at an earlier time?” the key concept here is “early”. Searching for analogous situations, he looked around for models of “things that happen early.” He thought of historical models, physical models, and biological models. Finally, he remembered a particular plant, the trailing arbutus, which “happens early,” i.e., it blooms in the snow (“earlier” than other plants). One of this plant’s chief characteristics is its’ red leaves, which help the plant retain light at certain wavelengths. Kettering figured that it must be the red color, which made the trailing arbutus bloom earlier.

Now came the critical step in Kettering’s chain of thought. He asked himself, “How can I make the gasoline red?” perhaps I’ll put red dye in the gasoline—maybe that’ll make it combust earlier.” He looked around his workshop, and found that he didn’t have any red dye. But he did happen to have some iodine—perhaps that would do. He added the iodine to the gasoline and, lo and behold, the engine didn’t “knock”.

篇3:散文写作精彩开头的技巧

全文共 2037 字

+ 加入清单

1.比喻入题,直接扣题 。

“理智和情感是人类生活中的两只脚印,人类在认知事物的道路上的每一次成长都和他们的理智及情感有关。”《天平和七弦琴》解说:将理智和情感比作是人类生活中的两只脚印,首句入题,就形象地点出了情感与理智的内在关系——情感与理智对认知具有重要的影响。这样的开头,入题迅速,闪烁着思辨的色彩,令人耳目一新。

2.拟人入题,激发想像 。

“在蝶的眼中,花是天使,因为花给予她生命的甘露;在花的眼中,蜂是挚友,因为蜂给予她生命的延续。然而在蝶眼中,蜂不过是埋头苦干的笨蛋,在蜂眼中,蝶不过是游戏花间的浪子。” 《学会历史的旁观》)解说:文章开头赋予蝶、蜂、花以人的性情,连物都会带着情感的眼光来评价、认知事物,更何况是情感丰富的人?通过生动贴切的拟人手法,将话题的内在含义巧妙点出,不仅唤起了人们对美好事物的相关联想,更体现了作者的睿智。

3.设问入题,启人深思 。

“人有七情,自有喜好与厌恶之情,然而,当这种好恶之情掺入对真理的认识时,又会有怎样的影响呢?”《勿以好恶论断之》)解说:一起笔就紧扣情感与认知,以一种假设将读者的思维引向对本质问题的思索,文章的立意显得十分深刻。这样的入题方式,将设问的修辞作用发挥得淋漓尽致,简洁,却分量十足。

4.排比入题,先声夺人 。

“你会因喜爱北国的皑皑白雪,而对南国的椰树海风不屑一顾吗?你会因沉迷于江南的小桥流水、青瓦白墙,而否定西北‘大漠孤烟’的美吗?你会介意林黛玉‘使性子’,而不看经典名著《红楼梦》吗?你会钟情流行音乐,而厌烦‘沉闷乏味’的古典音乐吗?——古希腊哲人曾说,人是感情的动物。因此,面对大千世界,感情上的亲疏远近、喜好憎恶往往会影响到对人对事的看法。相信每个人的心中都会有架天平,有个自己的标准,用来衡量周遭的一切。”(《心中的天平》)解说:优雅的语言、和谐的音节、丰富的形象还不足以触动你的情感吗?还不足以让你在美的品味中恍然大悟“原来对美的感知,对人对事的看法,都是要受到心中那架天平的影响”吗?

5.抒情议论入题,入情入理 。

“ 常常是一位亲人的生命如流星般陨落,我们才悲哀于死神的无情;常常是一位朋友在与疾病殊死斗争,我们才诅咒病魔的猖獗横行;常常是我们自己的利益受到了侵犯,我们才正视社会上的毒瘤……感情的叶片时常遮挡住我们理智的目光。”(高考优秀作文《放下感情的叶片》)解说:这样的语言是不是很容易唤起你的共鸣?这样的开头,既饱含着深厚的情感,又折射出理性的色彩。如此入情入理的文字,引导我们触摸到了这样的本质——“感情的叶片时常遮挡住我们理智的目光”。

6.名言警句入题,彰显底蕴 。

“人是有感情的,正如古语所说的‘人非草木,孰能无情。故而,在认知事物时便不自觉地附着了浓浓的个人情感。于是有了‘情人眼里出西施’的缠绵,有了‘感时花溅泪’的悲戚。(《怎一个“情”字了得》解说:文章开头即紧扣住一个“情”字,在三句话中嵌入了三句有关情感的名句,显示出了考生较为扎实的写作功底和文学底蕴。

7.对比入题,表明立场 。

“有时候,感情是一剂善变的药,融在爱人的酒杯中,苦涩里也能品出甘润;有时候,感情是一把双刃剑,握在敌人的手里,纵轻轻挥下也觉得伤痕累累。”(《真情诚可贵 理智价更高》)解说:感情既是能化苦涩为甘润的“善变的药”,又是可以带来累累伤痕的“双刃剑”。精致的比喻将情感的两重性揭示出来,构成巧妙的对比,非常形象地点出了文章的中心:真情诚可贵,理智价更高。

8.假设情景入题,埋下伏笔 。

“如果你正赶时间,可是走到路口却被人告诉前面过不去。如果这个人是你认识的人,你会怎么办?如果这个人是陌生人,你又会怎么办?”《不要和陌生人说话》)解说:是啊,假如遇到这种情景,我们该怎么办?是从感情亲疏的角度出发,对所认识的人相信多一点,对所不认识的人相信少一点,还是反过来?假如其他类似的情景,又该怎么办?很自然地,我们便顺着作者的思路追寻下去,去看看作者预设的答案到底是什么。

9.品评时事入题,追踪本质 。

APEC让全世界刮起了‘唐装热’。看着那不同肤色、不同国籍的人们着一身相同的唐装时,我不禁呐喊,我爱唐装!曾经,这样的传统服装让国人排斥,单调乏味,不及洋装轻便舒适,人们抱怨过,人们责难过,穿着这样的衣服甚至让他们羞愧,我不禁要问:一件衣服,有那么多过错吗?我看是感情在作祟吧!”(《我爱唐装》解说:直接以APEC会议引起的“唐装热”入题,联系对唐装前后情感态度的不同,引出了对本质的追问——衣服自然不会有对错,错的是人们的情感和认知。假如能在入题时用时事材料来紧扣话题,通过品评时事来追踪本质,你的作文的开头就也能带着几分新鲜,闪烁着几缕智性的光芒。

从以上的例子就可以看出,这些精巧的开头并非只是简单套用某种入题的技巧才显示出新意来,而是结合了几种或多种技巧,并且,从优秀考场作文的开头中,我们可以感受到的是这些考生驾驭语言的能力和良好的语文素养,这才是他们获高分的根本原因。

篇4:SAT的写作高分技巧适用于任何基础

全文共 628 字

+ 加入清单

对于刚刚开始准备SAT写作考试的考生来说,掌握一些非常复杂的词汇,语法和句式都是十分不现实的,所以下面总结的SAT写作技巧就是希望可以在大家掌握很少量的词汇和语法的基础上,提高写作的成绩。

首先要搞明白的是,SAT写作考试中的Essay不是抒情文、记叙文或者文学作品,而是议论文,表现一个学生逻辑思考、思想深度以及行文结构表达方式的载体,所以重要的不是句法、词汇,而是思想、结构。

1. SAT写作不要用长句。

写作用长句不是不好,但是用长句有两个问题,一是中国考生水平不够,很难写出语法没有错误、意思表达准确的长句,语法错误、几个逗号连用、倒装从句混合是经常发生的。二是看essay的考官也是人,没人愿意看很多长句混在一起的文章,短句更讨人喜欢,并且表达意思更加清晰,准确。所以大家要记得的第一个SAT写作技巧就是要用短句,不用或者少用长句。

2. SAT写作技巧中,细节是重中之重。

在SAT写作考试中出现My brother, friend的时候加上名字,出现university的时候要给上名字,给出事例的时候要给出时间地点人物,这几点是最基本的细节问题,没人愿意看我的弟弟去了一个大学,然后再大学里交了很多朋友,后来去了公司里那些朋友成为了他的财富,而我的弟弟Dan去了Upenn读书,在学校里认识了Jeff、Dennis等好朋友,而他后来去Google公司工作的时候发现了他们成为了自己一生宝贵的财富比上面那句好了很多。实在要写流水账也要写出细节和感觉。

篇5:中考作文写作九大技巧

全文共 2346 字

+ 加入清单

中考作文是语文考试中的半壁江山,要想在这科成绩中独树一帜取得高分,那么作文就一定要认真对待。中考作文在语文成绩的比重是相对较高的,除了要在平时多积累多阅读优秀作文之外,也要学会一些应试的小技巧;也许可以化腐朽为神奇。下面,就和小编一起来看一看中考作文写作九大技巧,希望对大家有帮助!

技巧1:作文成绩看字迹,得分要素是第一

任何形式的作文考试,阅卷老师打分时,第一眼,看的是字迹。因此,写作文必须要把字写好。记住,考作文考的是内容,而不是草书书法,切忌字迹潦草。

技巧2:考试作文五六段,干净整洁看卷面;字体大小也关键,千万不要写出边框线

考试作文中,要注意及时分段,三四个段落显得少了,八九个段落,显得琐碎了些。规定五到七断为宜。此外,卷面一定要整洁,不要涂改得乱七八糟。我的看法是,考试作文每段最好别超过5行,顶多是5行半。切忌一段都八九行。一旦给阅卷老师视觉上的疲劳,影响他的心理,分数就受影。

考试作文的卷子上,都是用黑颜色印刷的方格。同学们必须使用规定的考试黑色中性笔做文字题及写作文。选择题用2B铅笔,按要求涂上。此外,除书写规范外,写作文的时候,建议占方格下面的四分之三,这样,显得卷面美观。这样的作文写出来,在视觉上有眼前一亮的感觉,分数上可能就会占点便宜。另外,千万不要写出边框线。

技巧3:开头结尾要简练,最好首尾两行半

除了忌八九行的行文外,“大头作文”也要不得。建议考生在写作文的时候,开头结尾占两行半,顶多不能超过三行半。视觉会有瞬间的疲劳,也会影响到阅卷老师的判定。

技巧4:动笔之前要拟题,漂亮标题如美女

考试作文中,一般都是由考生自己来拟定题目,题目不宜太长和太短。拟题的办法(见后2、3页详解)根据题材,选择几十个比较精彩的标题,背下来,考试的时候可能依葫芦画瓢地就能采用到。

技巧5:作文首尾要打眼,丰富多彩出亮点

考试作文的开头方法很多:六要素开头法、题记开头法、悬念开头法、引名句开头法、排比句开头法、拟人式开头法、设问式开头法、对偶式开头法、合用修辞开头法、巧述典故开头法、解题式开头法、名人问答开头法、诗文引用开头法。

精写前几段,给评卷老师留下一个好印象。要精雕细刻,要出彩。比如,可开门见山,直奔主题;可制造悬念,引人入胜;可提出问题,引人注意;或巧用排比、比喻、拟人等修辞手法,或巧述故事,引人入胜,或巧用题记,揭示主旨,或巧用诗文显诗意。

写好结尾和过渡段。阅卷老师一般是S型的扫描全文。结尾可画龙点睛,发人深思;或总结全文,照应开头;或虚笔拓展,扩大容量;或精辟议论,深化主旨。结尾也很重要。一般来说,结尾是总结全文。如果是记叙文,要注意抒情。如果是议论文,则要注意归纳。无论如何,最好都要再次扣标题。怎么扣呢?如果你实在拿不准,就在结尾段的第一句,把题目说一下,然后归纳全文观点就是了。

此外,文章要有二至三个亮点。我建议:如果是记叙文,应该用抓人的情节和生动的各种描写(环境、心理、外貌、动作、语言)表现你的真情,记叙文不能没有描写。假如是议论文,就一定要有1--2个典型的论据,就应该有纵横捭阖,很深刻的见解。如果是微型小说一定要有巧妙的构思。这个亮点还可以是一句富有哲理的警句,也可以是一个精彩的比喻,也可以是一个超常的搭配。总之,要能使评卷老师眼睛为之一亮。

技巧6:动笔之前不要慌,想了题目列提纲

在具体操作的时候,要给自己充足的构思时间5-8分钟,不要急于动笔,“宁停三分,不争一秒”,因为写作是“开弓没有回头箭”的,写到一半,突然发现,呀!把题目理解错了,或没领会好命题的要求,发现没什么可写的。最可怕的是文章写到一半,又想另起炉灶。时间没了,心情也坏了。干着急。建议打草稿,防止“三边工程”(边想题目,边思结构,边写作文)。考场作文不宜见异思迁,边写边改。要贯彻一种构思。一旦构思已定,就不要轻易改变。因此,列提纲很关键。譬如,写记叙文要设计好开头结尾,同时要把你叙述的事情分成几个层次,一个层次是一段,中间如果能设置好一个过渡句或过渡段更好。列提纲的时候,一定要把开头结尾写详细些,中间各段,穿插哪些精彩的话语或名言俗语、诗词典故,要写准。一个聪明的学生,列提纲,大约8分钟到10分钟。时间要掌握好,提纲要简练些。

要力避前松后紧、虎头蛇尾。有些同学构思、提纲拟好后,开头反复推敲,精雕细琢,后来发现时间不够,于是草草收兵。此外,要谨慎对待修改。修改一般只着眼于字词方面的,可用笔划条斜线。结构方面不能修改。要保持卷面的整洁美观,要努力做到改动少而效果好。

此外,千万记住,写作文过程中要多次扣题,要一路扣题一路写。材料、引语和话题中的相关文字至少在文中出现四次以上。开头三句话内应点题一次,结尾应回扣标题,“回眸一笑百媚生”。中间至少扣题一次。几次扣题事实上也是在不断地提醒自己不要跑题。有球场上叫暂停的效果,可以调整思路和写法。

技巧7:想好主题和文体,非驴非马不可取

写作文,要么是记叙文,要么是议论文。一般来说,多是“总—分—总”结构。记叙文的结尾要注意点题抒情和总结哲理,议论文最好是“1—3—1”或者“1—4—1”结构,中间的3断或4断,是分层解题。当然也可以灵活采用夹叙夹议的手法。但是注意,千万别议论文说了那么多事例却不归纳论点,记叙文忘记说事却议论过多。因此,写考试作文,事先要想好了。建议除要求不写诗歌外也尽量不要选写议论文。

技巧8:适当克隆和“抄袭”,考前备料攒信息

此外还可以把从书上、电视等其它媒介上看到的别人的感人事迹,可以搬到自己家。但这在考试的时候要灵活慎重运用。

技巧9:篇幅争取要写满,多写一点是一点

一般来说,中考高分作文要求都在600字。最好写到580—650字之间。如果实在难快收尾,那就顶多写到700字。实在没必要多写。

雅思写作模板介绍思考试大作文的用词和句法技巧

本文来自雅思作文网《介绍雅思考试大作文的用词和句法技巧》。   西方人有一句话说:Your boss has a big vocabulary than you have,that is one good reason why your boss is your boss. 这句话翻译过来就是说:你老板的词汇量比你大,这是他之所以是你老板的一个很好原因。可见词汇量大不但对一个人的工作起着决定性作用,而且也是获得雅思写作高分最有力的武器之一。

(一)词汇运用的层次

通过对雅思写作评分标准,官方范文以及考生所写的文章的分析,考生在用词方面可以分为以下几个层次:

1. 正确(Correct):表达你想表达的意思,对于同一个意思可能有好几个词,那么同义词基本上都是正确的。

2. 合适(Appropriate):在不同语境下要使用不同的词,比如在肯定的语义中要用褒义词,而在否定的语义中要使用贬义词。

3. 精确(Exact):要联系上下文,尽可能用词到位,因为有些词是不够精确的。比如: allocate part of the fiscal revenue,allocate是分配,不能用divide来替换。

4. 灵活(Smart):英语本身就有很多约定俗成的表达方法,用我们的话来说,就是有很多潜规则。因此,我们要注意培养地道英语表达,还要注意词汇的固定搭配。

(二)词汇的变换技巧

在写作评分标准里有明确的关于词汇的标准: Lexical Resource: 词汇资源。它考察词汇的运用是否多样恰当且准确。词汇的多少并不能决定文章的好坏,但用词精确性是可以加分的。一般来说,词汇的准确表达可以通过两个方面达到,一是在用词的难度上拔高,二是在近义词的多种表达上提升。值得提醒的是,不要过分堆积华丽的,会给考官留下华而不实的感觉。

1. 使用同义词进行替换

使用同义词的好处在于首先可以向考官展示考生词汇量的丰富,其次也可以使文章富有变化。因此,同义词的运用是衡量考生英语水平的一个很有力的标准,考官认同你的同时,自然也会给你高分。请看下面的例子:

School teachers used to be the source of information. However,some people argue that teachers are not as important as before because there is an increasing variety of information resources. What is your opinion? (08年4月24日考题)

2. 使用各种形式的同根词进行替换

.html 雅思写作模板介绍雅思考试大作文的用词和句法技巧

英语里面有很多同根词,通过单词的变换来吸引阅卷者眼球并获得高分是一个很好的办法。一些单词通过添加前缀或者后缀的方式可以衍生出很多新的词汇。而使用这些词汇可以避免重复原文当中的词条,也可以向阅卷者展示你变化词汇的技巧。

比如写作中我们经常会用到“知道”这个概念,我们可以用know这个词以及它的其他形式和它们的同义词来表示“知道”这个意思。

篇7:新闻写作基础知识及写作技巧

全文共 2846 字

+ 加入清单

一、结合工作撰写新闻稿件的意义

平常我们经常说,新闻写作是“七分看问题三分写稿件”。比方说,写今天培训班的稿件,就得先搞明白,为什么要办这个班,是因为存在什么问题要解决什么问题才办这个班。于是,我们就可以这样写了:为了提高各级干部的综合业务素质,石景山区人口计生委办了一期培训班。如果面对每一件事情,大家都能够按照撰写新闻稿件的习惯去想,这件事为什么要做,是因为存在什么样的问题才要做,怎么样做才能达到目的、有效果,这种思维习惯养成后,分析问题、解决问题的能力肯定能够增强。

其次,结合工作撰写新闻稿件,能够真实、及时、有效地反映工作成果。不论是一个单位还是一个人,一天到晚都在干工作,确实也做出了很多成绩,这些成绩如果能够通过新闻媒体反映出来,可能会得到很理想的效果。平时,某某报纸或电视报道了某某单位或个人的事迹后,我们就经常会听到这样的话:还不如我们做得好呢!这很可能不是一句狐狸吃不着葡萄说葡萄酸,而是真的是他们的工作做得比较被报道的要好,甚至是好很多。因此,在“酒香也怕巷子深”的信息时代里,如何把自己的工作宣传出去,确实是一件非常重要的事情。

第三,结合工作撰写新闻稿件,能够比较有效地调动工作积极性。平时我们在单位里,早上上班时遇到个人,女的遇到男的,说一句“XXX,你今天看起来好精神啊”、男的看到女的,来一句“啊呀,XXX,你今天又比昨天漂亮了、年轻了”。虽然人还是那个人,脸还是那张脸,而且还只有越来越老的可能。尽管大家都明白这个道理,但是这种“去年二十今年十八”的赞美,因为符合人心向善的逻辑规律,往往能够让大家都感到心情愉悦。而正面的新闻报道也同样有这样的功效。无论是被报道的人和单位,还是撰写新闻的人,都会有成就感在心头油然而生,无形中就有效调动了大家的工作积极性。有些社会效应大的典型报道,这方面的效应尤其明显。

第四,结合工作撰写新闻稿件,会对个人的成长进步形成直接的影响。从某种意义上说,撰写新闻稿件对作者的综合素质是有一定体现的。我不是说能写新闻稿件的都是比别人能力强的,而是指撰写新闻稿件需要作者有一定的查找问题、分析问题并提出解决问题方案的能力,具有较为扎实的文字基础,还要有较强的协调能力。我相信,如果我们在座的基层人口计生干部中出现这方面的人才,很可能就会得到重用。也许这也正是我们今天要开办这个培训班的目的之一吧。

从上述的四个方面看,虽然大家工作都很忙,但还是值得在百忙之中抽出一定的时间来撰写新闻稿件的。但是,有人也许会说,我们也不是不想搞报道,只是条件不充分,和专业的新闻记者没法比。但我却不这么认为,专业的新闻记者是有他的优势,比如时间、精力上比较集中,掌握了熟悉的技巧等等,但我们也有我们的优势,这种优势主要体现在二个方面,即两个知情。

二、基层干部撰写新闻稿件的优势

一是对工作重点、难点的知情。

在对工作的重点、难点的准确掌握上,基层干部所具有优势是专业新闻报道员难以比拟的。大家可能都接待过记者,或者看过记者采访,许多时候,如果没有精心准备,记者很容易问出一些让人啼笑皆非的问题来的。这叫外行看热闹,内行看门道。我们在座的领导们都是人口计生工作的专家能手,对什么是工作重点、难点,什么事情是一段时间内上级抓得紧的,都是了如指掌。这一点对于搞好新闻报道工作是一个非常重要的前提条件。我每次采访一个部门的工作,都必须先找一大资料看看,然后找熟悉工作的同志东扯西拉的请教,才能够确定从哪个角度入手来抓报道主题。在这个过程中,没少闹笑话。(举例:流管处的数据交换平台。)

二是对拟采访对象的知情。

不要说媒体的记者,就像我这样的宣传干部,每次到一个地方采访都是匆匆忙忙的。一方面是自己的时间比较紧,另一方面怕打搅被采访者。但是,不管是记者还是我这样的,大凡都有一个习惯,那就是采访得越细,问题问得越清楚越好。(举例:通州采访。)结合工作撰写新闻稿件,写的都是我们自己身边的人身边的事,人是自己朝夕相处的,工作是自己一滴滴汗水干出来的,写起来是信手拈来,驾驭自如。

只要我们能够充分发挥这两个优势,写出优秀的新闻稿件就肯定不是难事。这也是我为什么要将汇报的大题目称为“春江水暖鸭先知”的用意。

三、新闻写作的基本知识

(一)新闻的定义

掌握新闻稿件基本要素的目的是为了增强大家的选题能力,即让大家能够独立判断出什么样的工作或事件能够作为新闻报道的素材。

首先,什么是新闻?历来说法不一。新闻定义的争鸣伴随着新闻学的研究,已走过一个多世纪的路程。国内外众多资深新闻学专家和新闻工作者,给新闻下了170多种定义。

无论中外古今,公众认知、理解的新闻就是某种见闻。如果我们以属加种差的形式来给新闻这一概念下定义的话,见闻就是新闻的属概念。找到了属概念,使用内涵定义法就可以根据不同的种差,给出不同的定义,如从性质、发生原因、种属关系、功用等方面就可以列出下面一组基本定义。

1.性质定义:新闻是新近、新鲜、新奇的见闻。性质定义反映的是新闻的基本特性,即新近、新鲜、新奇,用一个字来概括即“新”。

2.发生定义:新闻是通过对新近、新鲜、新奇事物的感知而获得的见闻。发生定义是立足于新闻产生的方式来给新闻下定义的。这种方式就是人的感知形式。

3.关系定义:新闻与过时、陈腐、平淡的旧闻相对,是新近、新鲜、新奇的见闻。关系定义突出的是新闻与旧闻的关系,要表明的是前者和后者同归“见闻”一“属”,是同属中的两个不同“种”类。

4.功用定义:新闻是能够满足受者喜新好奇心理的新见闻。功用定义所表述的则是新闻的最基本的社会功用,而不是作为某种特定工具的特殊功用。

可以说,上述一组基本定义具有最广泛的概括性,能够正确地定位新闻的外延与内涵。

(二)新闻稿件应具备的几个基本要素

新闻稿件的基本要素之一:新闻事件具有能够满足读者好奇心的特征。

上学的时候,老师们说,资本主义国家的新闻定义通俗点讲,就是“狗咬人不是新闻,人咬狗是新闻”。老师讲完了,大家就在教室里哄堂大笑起来。现在想想,其实发生在我们身边的“人咬狗”式的新闻也很多。比如说,现在众多的媒体炒作、明星包装等等,你骂我,我骂你,似乎很热闹,但从实质意义上理解,与前面所说的“人咬狗是新闻”的调侃也差不了太多。这种现象说明了什么问题,我们在这里不能分析得太深刻了,否则就有可能出政治问题了。但是,之所以提起这些,是因为它充分说明了新闻选题的侧重点,就是应该在“创新特征”上下功夫。你想报道的事件它必须得有点新意,能够满足读者的好奇心理。

在我们现实工作中,我们可以把新闻性理解成工作中的创新性,即我们所做的工作是独一无二的,是可以让大家感到眼前一亮的。比如说,人口计生委搞了一个性科学教育基地,这对于性观念保守的中国社会来说,就是一件具有很强创新特征的工作。围绕这样的一个选题做文章,就非常符合新闻事件能够满足读者好奇的特征。

在北京的各家媒体中,社会新闻这一块,这样的稿件是占了绝对多数的。但是,在我们结合工作搞报道的过程中,这样的稿件却是相对较少的。

篇8:读后感的写作技巧与方法

全文共 1019 字

+ 加入清单

读后感属于议论文的范畴,但又不同于一般的议论文。

一般议论文,要求观点明确,论据典型,论证严密;而读后感最突出的特点是“读”和“感”的紧密结合。“读”,指读了何人、何文,文中有何事、何观点;“感”,是指读后有何感受。“读”是“感”的基础,“感”是“读”的升华。就所读作品而言,“读”是“即”—对所读内容和感发点作必要的交代;“感”是“离”—根据感发点进行联想,谈感受。“感”是“读”互相作用,不可脱节。

“读”和“感”的结合,一般采用两种形式:一是边述读(交代所读内容)边发感;二是先述读后发感。原则上讲,先述读后发感的形式比较好把握,适合初学写读后感的同学选用。

要写好读后感,除掌握以上基本的文体知识外,还必须把握以下几个写作步骤:

一、研读原文。

只有研读好原文,才能对原文的内容和主旨有深刻全面的理解和把握,才能从中有所感悟,这是写好读后感的基础。

二、确立感发点。感发点是读后感的中心论点,又是文章的“入手处”。

一篇文,一本书,一部影视片,一出戏剧,内容有简有繁,线索有多有少,人物有主有次,观点有深有浅,写读后感不可能面面俱到。那么,怎样确立感发点呢?方法很简单。我们研读某篇作品后,必然会受到启发,有所感悟,而我们受启发最大、感悟最深的那一点(或几点),就可以确立为“感发点”。例如:写人为主的记叙文,感发点往往是人物最突出的精神、思想、品格等特点或最有价值的言论、行动。写事为主的记叙文,感发点往往是事件中所包含的意义、所反映的某种问题或普遍性的规律。议论文的感发点,一般是所读议论文的中心论点或分论点。其他文体感发点的确立的与此大同小异,不一一赘述。

三、述读与发感。

述读,指对所读文章的出处、篇名、作者、感发点等方面的交代,目的是使读者明白这篇读后感的由来,要发什么感。这些交代是必不可少的,否则,就会让读者不明白你的“感”由何而发。发感,是在述读和感发点的基础上,展开联想与引申,联系实际进行发挥,这是文章的主体部分。

联想与引申的原则是,要围绕感发点,要与原文材料有密切的联系。对联系的内容和实际还要进行必要的分析、议论或抒情,这样“感”才会深刻。这也是展开读后感主体部分最主要的方法。

另外,在论证感发点的过程中,要注意把两种论据紧密结合起来,一是所读原文的材料,二是联想和引申的材料。

四、读后感的结尾

结尾可概括中心,总结全文,或提出问题,发表看法,发人深思。“文无定则”,内容决定形式,采用什么形式结尾,要根据读后感的类型而定。

篇11:2024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。。。。

篇12:2024关于电视新闻标题写作技巧

全文共 3255 字

+ 加入清单

一、电视新闻及其传播特性

要探讨电视新闻标题写作方法和技巧,就要先弄明白什么是电视新闻,电视新闻有怎样的传播特性。

一般来说,电视新闻较为准确的内涵是:“电视新闻是以现代电子技术为传播手段,以声音、画面为传播符号,对新近或正在发生、发现的事实的报道。”电视新闻的传播特性概括起来有四个方面:新闻传播的及时性、传播符号的综合性、事实氛围的传真性、深度涉入的参与性。电视新闻作为一种渗透力极强的大众传播媒介,无论在信息传播还是舆论导向上,都对社会产生了巨大的影响。

标题是电视新闻写作中重要的一环,它是新闻播出时,在屏幕上打出的文字传播符号,用以揭示新闻的主要内容,对传播信息、沟通观众、引导社会舆论有着重要的作用。因而,标题写作一定要精心设计,反复推敲。然而,当今的电视传媒对新闻标题的写作水平和重视程度,还远远不够,特别是与报刊等传统媒体甚至互联网这样的新媒体相比,尤为不足。

二、电视新闻标题的作用

与报刊新闻标题和网络新闻标题的“导读”作用不同,电视新闻标题不是在新闻前面出现,而是在新闻播出开始以后才加上去的,因而没有起到提示后一条新闻开始的作用。换言之,电视新闻标题没有标位作用,其出现的目的主要是对报道内容的概括、提示,以帮助观众加强对新闻的理解,或者评价事实、表明态度、引导舆论。

概括说来主要有以下两个方面:

(一)突出要旨

标题是新闻中最重要、最有价值的那部分事实的浓缩和概括。例如,“我国预报天体和撞已达国际领先水平”、“锲而不舍,绿我神州--中央领导参加植树”,这两个标题提纲挈领、清晰明白,使观众一眼便能从标题中看清楚新闻的要旨,对新闻主题的表现有着直接的帮助。

(二)评价事实

标题对读者的引导,不仅仅表现在对新闻核心事实的提示上,还能够对新闻所反映的事实和意义做出恰当的评价,巧妙地揭示其实质,并以此影响舆论。例如这样两个标题:“合资,引进来,更要利用好”、“打击棉花掺杂使假行为刻不容缓”,这样的评价深刻尖锐,直接触及新闻事实的本质内涵,借以引导舆论。

三、不同体裁电视新闻的标题写作

俗话说:“因地制宜,量体裁衣。”新闻标题之于新闻体裁,也像衣服之于人,应视“体裁”的不同而具有不同的写作特点和写作方法。在这里,我们把电视新闻分为消息类、专题类和评论类三种体裁加以探讨。

(一)消息的标题

消息主要是迅速、简要地报道国内外发生的新闻事实。因此,电视的消息类新闻标题应该主要在于摆事实,侧重表现事物的动态,回答正在发生什么这样的问题。一般可分为叙述式标题、概括式标题和提示式标题三种。

1.叙述式标题

叙述式标题,就是用直接叙述的方法,把消息中最有新闻价值的事实简明扼要地标示出来。这种类型的标题是电视新闻消息中广泛采用的。例如,“天安门广场竖起‘中国对香港恢复行使主权’倒计时牌”、“国际田联对中国田径运动员进行飞行药检”、“广东警方迅速破获‘东星轮’千万元劫案”等等,都是对新闻中最重要的事实的直接陈述,通俗易懂。

2.概括式标题

概括式标题是对新闻报道的内容、主题的概括和凝练。例如,“朱卡嘉没有走”、“代表民心的四次掌声”、“广东:农民成了现代农业投资的主体”等等,这些标题都是对报道内容和思想的最集中的概括,凝练,扼要。

采用提问式的写法,如《这样收费合理吗?--关于大连站车票问题的报道》,这种问题性标题也是对报道内容的另一种形式的概括,以引起观众的注意。

3.提示式标题

提示式标题在以往的电视新闻中应用不多,是近几年才被一些电视媒体采用的。这类新闻往往都是一些短消息,特别是在大杂烩式的组合编排中,以时间、地点或者其他标准将各条新闻加以区分,有的也是以新闻的主题词、关键词来标示。这类新闻标题往往是不完整的,它只是提示式的,如“美国:火山”、“匈牙利:汽车大赛”、“珍稀动物”等等,都极为简练。

(二)专题的标题

专题,是就某一新闻题材作比较详尽完整的报道。它的标题一般不宜太实、太露、太直,要做得虚一些、含蓄一些。不宜像消息那样把新闻中所言、所明之理,在标题中直截了当、合盘托出。由于专题需要比较详尽地描述新闻事件发展变化的过程,需要再现人物的精神风貌,主要着眼于开掘事物的本质特征和思想意义,使之成为窥见人物心灵的“窗口”。例如这样几个标题:“三军战三江”,气垫恢宏;“粤海情融天山雪”,寓意深长、耐人寻味;“兄弟情”颂扬了在社会主义祖国大家庭里,人与人之间兄弟般的真情厚谊;“西海固连着中南海”,生动形象地传达了党和国家对贫困地区群众生活的关心,对贫困地区经济发展的支持这一全片的主旨。

(三)评论的标题

电视新闻评论是虚实结合、记叙结合,因此其标题的特色是据事立论,带有提问题、指方向和阐发观点的特点。例如,中央电视台《焦点访谈》节目中经常采用这类标题:“法规为何成空文”、“连续诈保为何得逞”等,既点明事物的本质,又直截了当地提出了问题,引人深思;“苦涩的苹果”、“难转的‘金轮’”等,把要论的事和论及的理都概括地写进了标题;“‘罚’要依法”、“对话比对抗好”等,旗帜鲜明,直接阐发了对所要论及的问题的看法、见解和观点。

需要说明的是,电视新闻专题和电视新闻评论的标题,有时除了主题之外,往往还有副题,如“潜在危机--关于童工现象的思考”等。

了解不同新闻体裁标题的各自特点,便于掌握标题写作的一般规律,同时注意各自的特殊性并加以区分,以免出现张冠李戴、题不对文的现象。当然,在实践中,各种新闻体裁的标题之间存在差异外,往往又是互相渗透的,并非完全不可逾越,关键是要运用得当。

四、电视新闻标题的写作重点

除了“量体裁衣”外,电视新闻标题的写作技巧概括起来说,还应注意以下几点:

一要“准”--标题要概括新闻中最重要、最有特点的精华部分。标题是一则电视新闻报道的提要和点睛之笔,因而标题写作要紧贴主题,对新闻事实的表述要准确、精当,以概括新闻内容的精髓和实质。这就要求记者、编辑有对题材高度的概括和把握能力,才能做到用词准确适当,分寸得体。

二要“简”--标题要简洁明快、通俗易懂。电视新闻标题的遣词造句要平实朴素,明白晓畅,让观众在一瞥之中,不假思索地便能了解它的内涵,切忌艰涩、生僻或华丽词藻的堆砌。当然,通俗化并非简单化、公式化,标题写作忌讳相互模仿,重复陈旧,像“……成绩显著”、“……留给我们的思考”这类的标题,在今天就很落俗了。另外,电视新闻的标题相对要短,尽可能避免或减少冗长的复合句、不必要的副标题等的出现。

三要“隐”和“新”--标题要形象生动,力求新颖独到。标题要让人俗中见雅,俗中见奇,俗中生趣,起到“言近而旨远,辞浅而义深”的表达效果。因此,可巧用修辞方法,或用具体、浅显的事物替代抽象、深奥的事物等技巧。例如,“一脚油门踩到底”,生动活泼,简洁明快,动感强烈;“六年冠军梦,圆梦在津门”,对仗工整,语言凝练,文采斐然;“检查团来了!走了!”,言简意赅,内涵丰富,引人深思。这些都是做到了“隐”的标题,即有内涵、有寓意、有悬念。同时,一个好的标题,一定要别出心裁,一定要有个性特征。不用别人用过的,不用俗滥陈腐的套话,要用“新”,才能体现作者的独具匠心,才更能抓住观众的心。

四要“针对”--标题要配合电视新闻的传播特点。电视是图、文、声、形并茂的,电视新闻也包含了画面、音响、解说等多媒体因素,因此电视新闻标题的制作也要注意与这些因素相配合,做到符合全片的风格和基调。例如下面这些例子:“城里人下乡购时装”、“走南闯北看浙货”,这样的标题中蕴含的动感,就很好地配合了电视画面的连续运动性。另外,电视不仅是传播信息的媒介,更是一种艺术。因此,我们同样应该重视电视新闻节目的艺术内涵和审美标准,文本记者和编辑也应该追求标题中的文采、意蕴、内涵和感染力。

五、结论

总之,电视新闻标题的写作并非易事,其中包含着诸多的技巧和艺术,新闻工作者对此不应小视,而应当作一门学问去精心锤炼。笔者在这里讲到了一些方法和技巧,也只是“冰山一角”罢了,从业人员要想做到“信手拈来”,还得在实践中多写多练,毕竟,熟能生巧。

篇13: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。

篇16:1汉语环境影响英语写作的几个方面

全文共 743 字

+ 加入清单

1.1词汇方面

如果把写英语作文比作建楼房的话,英语词汇在英语写作中起着砖、瓦的作用,是句子的最基本的组成部分,所以词汇是我们高中英语教学中的重点,单词听写是课堂教学必不可少的一个环节,但学生的词汇量毕竟有限,遇到问题时,便会用汉语词汇去补充英语词汇的空缺。

例如:交通十分繁忙。误:The traffic is busy. 正:The traffic is heavy.

她和一位教授结婚了。误:She married with a professor.

正:She married a professor.

英语词语的词义往往比较复杂,并和汉语有着一定区别。这种不同就会会导致学生仅把写作当作一词一句的翻译来做,结果是事倍功半。

1.2语法方面

英语中难点就是时态,语态的掌握。英语中常用时态共十六种,语态分为主动语态与被动语态,语气有陈述语气与虚拟语气之分。不同的时态有它特有的句法结构。如现在进行时态使用be+v-ing形式来表示。现在完成时则用have/has +p.p来表示。一般将来时则用shall/will/be going to+v来表示。英语中时间意义的表达是通过动词的时和体来加以反映,而汉语中不存在时、体等,汉语则依靠表示时间的副词(如“曾经”、“正在”、“已经”、“将要”)作状语,或利用虚词“了”、“着”、“过”等作补语这一语法手段来体现,动词本身无任何变化。在英语中,“already”和“ever”常常用在完成时态之中,不能与表示过去的时间状语连用。学生常常把上述句子错译成“Yesterday I have been to the park.”“Five years ago,they have known each other.”又如在英语中,我们常常用否定前置来

篇17:如何提高写作能力的技巧

全文共 2369 字

+ 加入清单

一:简明扼要: 这是你在修改的过程中,最重要的一件事情。一句句,一段段的修改,把无关主题的统统都删掉。一个短句比一段冗长的废话更具说服力,大白话比晦涩的专业术语更受欢迎。记得:简单就是力量。

二:富于感染力的句子:在短句中使用富有感染力的动词,当然,并没有要求每一句都是这样,你需要变化。但是,多试试能够吸引人的句子。而且,你没有必要等到你要修改的时候再用,你刚开始写的时候就要考虑这个问题。

三:获取别人的反馈: 闭门造车不会有任何进步,让别人读读你的文章给你回馈,最好有经验的作家和编辑。他们见多识广,会给你很中肯和有见地的建议。认真的听,即使是一些批评,也接受它,忠言逆耳,这样只会让你写得更好。

四:阅读优秀的作品:这是显而易见的,但立竿见影的方法。如果你不读更多的好作品,你就不知道如何写出更好的作品。优秀的作家都是从阅读别人的佳作开始,接着开始模仿,最后超越他们,形成自己的风格。尽可能的多读名著,在看内容的时候,更要留意文章的问题和写作技巧

五:尽能多的写:每天都写,如果可能话,每天写几次。你写得多了,也就写得好了。学习如何写作和其他的学问道理是一样的,熟能生巧。写写你自己,写写博客,向出版社投稿。只是写,全情投入的写,练得越多,你的写作水平就提升得越快。

六:随时随地记下你的灵感:随身带一本小笔记本(纳博科夫身上装满了小卡片),当你对你构思的小说,文章,或是小说里的人物有什么灵感的时候,马上记下来。当你听别人谈话时的只言片语而所有顿悟时,或看到一段散文诗或是一句歌词让你很感动时,都可以马上当他们记下来。灵感总是转瞬即逝,你及时的记录下来,便可以成为你写作的素材。我的习惯是,为我的博客要写的文章列一个清单,不断的补充它。

七:专门的写作时间:每天找一个没有任何打扰的时间段作为专门的写作时间,让这成为习惯。对我而言,清晨的时间是最佳的,午饭,傍晚,或者深夜的那段时间也可以。无论你是做什么工作的,把写作当作每天必须完成的任务去做。每天至少写半个小时,当然有一个小时更好。若你同我一样,是一个全职的作家,那么你需要写更多的小时,请你不要担心,这只会让你写得更好。

八:随便涂鸦:面对整张的白纸,整版的白屏,无从开始,肯定恐怖。你会想:我还是看看邮件或是小憩一会了吧!先生,千万别这样。马上开始写,马上打字,你写什么没有关系,只是让我听到你敲键盘的声音吧。只要你开始写了,什么都好办了。像我的话,我喜欢先敲上我的名字和文章的标题,这应该不难吧,然后再慢慢的展开情节,全身心地融入进去…关键是:开始可以随便写写,随便涂鸦,但是尽快开始写正文。

九:集中精神:写作是一件一心一意的事情,在嘈杂的环境或是同时干着别的事情,是不可能写好的。写作需要一个安静的环境,需要一点点柔和的背景音乐。即使是最低要求,你也需要在全屏(没有其他软件得干扰)的条件下,使用WriteRoom, DarkRoom,Writer这些写作软件,不受打扰的写作。关掉邮箱,关点MSN和Gtalk,关掉电话和手机,关掉电视,清理掉书桌上无用的东西。清除与写作无关的一切杂念,现在就是写作的时间,好像把自己放进一个盒子里,在没有任何打扰下进入写作状态。

十:先计划,再写: 这好像和“随便涂鸦”有些矛盾,实际上不是这样。在坐下来正式写之前,先做个计划或是脑子里先预演一下,这是非常管用的办法。每天跑步的时候想想要写的东西,或是散步的时间来个头脑风暴;然后把想到的记下来,做一个扼要的提纲;等真正准备好开始写了,可以很快的展开,因为思路和想法都有了。

十一:创新: 你需要模仿名家,这并不意味你要跟他们写得一模一样。你可以试试新的写法,从这里学一点,从那里学一点。渐渐地,你就会有了自己的风格,自己的文体,自己的思路。试试一些不一样的表达,或创造一些与众不同的表达方式,每一方法你都可以尝试,看看它到底怎么样,不好就不用呗。

十二:修改: 你开始构思你的文字,然后试着写,让故事情节展开,最后你需要回过头再看看你都写了什么。这点很重要,很多写手一旦写好就不想修改,已经费时费力地写好了,还要再花时间修改,实在是一件吃力不讨好的活。但如果你想写得更好,你就要学会如何修改。好的作品是经过反复的推敲和修改而成的,这会让你的作品从平庸中脱颖而出。看看你写的东东,不仅仅是那些拼写和语法错误,还有那些无意义的词,混乱的结构,和让人搞不懂的句子。修改的目标是:更清晰,更直接,更鲜活。

十三:是骡子还是马,拉出来溜溜:就你而言,你需要让别人读到你的作品。你的作品不是你想谁看谁就看的,让所有的人都读到你的文章。你就要出版自己的书,发表自己的短篇小说和诗歌,给出版社供稿。如果你已经开始写博客了,恭喜你,这是一个好的开始。若现在还没有人浏览过,你就需要把它放到流量更大的博客服务网站上去,让读者给你留言,给你提出建议。所有的人都会看你写东西,也许刚开始时会是件伤脑筋的事情,但这是每一位作家成长的必由之路,马上发表你的文字吧。

十四:采用对话式的文体: 很多人的写作都很正式,但是我发现像我们说话一样写作会使文章更流畅(没有叹生词)。这样一来,读者看起来会更舒服。刚开始这么写并不容易,你需要坚持这么做。也许,会带来另一个问题,为了读起来更口语化,你需要打破一些语法规则(就像我的前一句那样)。因为如果生搬硬套语法,会让你的文章看起来很不自然。若没有其他原因,就不要破坏语法规则。你需要知道你在做什么和为什么这样做。

十五:好开头和结尾: 开头和结尾是文章的重点。特别是开头。如果你不能在故事的开始就吸引读者,那他们就很难有耐心把整篇文章读完。所以投入更多的时间去考虑怎么写好开头,读者一旦对你开头感兴趣。 他们会想知道得更多…写好开头后,再弄一个精彩的结尾,这会让读者更加期待你的下一篇。

篇19:2024小升初英语作文写作技巧

全文共 925 字

英语写作是一种创作性的学习过程。启动知识信息储存,构思立意,谋篇布局,遣词造句,对语言表达的正确性和准确性、思维的逻辑性和文章的条理性都比口语要求更高。通常英语写作有以下几个特点:紧扣教学大纲对考生书面表达的要求;以有指导的写作为主(guidedwriting),便于考生在短时间内构思成文;突出试题的交际性,考查考生在特定的情景中运用语言的能力;增强试题的实用性,所选话题贴近学生学习生活,为学生所熟悉;看图作文主要考查考生运用所学知识解决实际问题的能力。

一、给写作留有充分的时间

小升初英语题中, “书面表达”往往是最后一项,有的学生把最后几分钟用在写作上,匆匆了事,这是很不明智的。学生用在写作上的时间应不少于10分钟,力争不丢分,少丢分。

二、认真审题,先打草稿

写之前一定要认真阅读写作要求,切忌见题就写。小升初英语作文主要有两种类型: “提示作文”和 “看图作文”。 “提示作文”一般已经给出要点,而 “看图作文”则需根据图画及提示在很短的时间内将要点列出。把要点列出后,在草稿纸上写提纲,打草稿,就可以看出大概有多少字。在正式往试卷上写之前,根据题目要求适当增减内容,保持卷面整洁。

三、写好简单句,慎用长句

考生要根据所列要点,运用相应的提示词及正确的动词形式在稿纸上写出简单句。考生应熟悉简单句的五种基本句型,尽量使用简单句。在简单句的基础上,根据各句之间的关系适当加上一些连词,使得整篇文章结构紧凑,行文流畅。套用句型,能显示考生的英语基础扎实,提高作文档次。慎用长句是因为其成分多,结构复杂,所以出错的机会也多。考生在没有十足的把握时最好少用或不用长句,以免给自己的作文带来不必要的损失。

四、熟悉各种时态,灵活运用

时态是学习英语语言的难点。考生务必系统地学习初中出现的各种时态,做到灵活运用。在同一篇作文当中,时态要保持一致。

五、切忌中式英语,避免生搬硬套

一些学生因缺乏写作技巧,往往在写英语作文时,根据中文意思堆积英文单词,编造出许多中式英语,结果错误百出,意思表达不清楚,直接影响考试成绩。

六、认真检查和修改,减少错误

做完写作题后要从头至尾读一遍,检查一下文章是否通顺,有无逻辑错误,标点符号、单词拼写和时态运用是否正确,避免笔误。

篇20:六级英语写作的七大要点

全文共 4319 字

+ 加入清单

作文是六级考试的一个重要得分部分,可说起写作技巧,很多同学都会皱眉头,抱怨无话可写,内容平淡。下面是小编整理的六级写作的七大要点,欢迎阅读。

一、 长短句原则。

工作还得一张一弛呢,老让读者读长句,累死人!写一个短小精辟的句子,相反,却可以起到画龙点睛的作用。而且如果我们把短句放在段首或者段末,也可以揭示主题:As a creature, I eat; as a man, I read. Although one action is to meet the primary need of my body and the other is to satisfy the intellectual need of mind, they are in a way quite similar. 如此可见,长短句结合,抑扬顿挫,岂不爽哉?牢记!

强烈建议:在文章第一段(开头)用一长一短,且先长后短;在文章主体部分,要先用一个短句解释主要意思,然后在阐述几个要点的时候采用先短后长的句群形式,定会让主体部分妙笔生辉!文章结尾一般用一长一短就可以了。

二、 主题句原则。

国有其君,家有其主,文章也要有其主。否则会给人造成“群龙无首”之感!相信各位读过一些破烂文学,故意把主体隐藏在文章之内,结果造成我们稀里糊涂!不知所云!所以奉劝各位一定要写一个主题句,放在文章的开头(保险型)或者结尾,让读者一目了然,必会平安无事!

特别提示:隐藏主体句可是要冒险的!To begin with, you must work hard at your lessons and be fully prepared before the exam(主题句). Without sufficient preparation, you can hardly expect to answer all the questions correctly.

三、 一 二 三原则。

领导讲话总是第一部分、第一点、第二点、第三点、第二部分、第一点… 如此罗嗦。可毕竟还是条理清楚。考官们看文章也必然要通过这些关键性的“标签”来判定你的文章是否结构清楚,条理自然。破解方法很简单,只要把下面任何一组的词汇加入到你的几个要点前就清楚了。

1)first, second, third, last(不推荐,原因:俗)

2)firstly, secondly, thirdly, finally(不推荐,原因:俗)

3)the first, the second, the third, the last(不推荐,原因:俗)

4)in the first place, in the second place, in the third place, lastly(不推荐,原因:俗)

5)to begin with, then, furthermore, finally(强烈推荐)

6)to start with, next, in addition, finally(强烈推荐)

7)first and foremost, besides, last but not least(强烈推荐)

8)most important of all, moreover, finally

9)on the one hand, on the other hand(适用于两点的情况)

10)for one thing, for another thing(适用于两点的情况)

建议:不仅仅在写作中注意,平时说话的时候也应该条理清楚!

四、短语优先原则。

写作时,尤其是在考试时,如果使用短语,有两个好处:其一、用短语会使文章增加亮点,如果老师们看到你的文章太简单,看不到一个自己不认识的短语,必然会看你低一等。相反,如果发现亮点—精彩的短语,那么你的文章定会得高分了。

其二、关键时刻思维短路,只有凑字数,怎么办?用短语是一个办法!比如:I cannot bear it. 可以用短语表达:I cannot put up with it. I want it. 可以用短语表达:I am looking forward to it. 这样字数明显增加,表达也更准确。

五、多实少虚原则

原因很简单,写文章还是应该写一些实际的东西,不要空话连篇。这就要求一定要多用实词,少用虚词。我这里所说的虚词就是指那些比较大的词。

比如我们说一个很好的时候,不应该之说nice这样空洞的词,应该使用一些诸如generous, humorous, interesting, smart, gentle, warm-hearted, hospitable 之类的形象词。

再比如: 走出房间,general的词是:walk out of the room 但是小偷走出房间应该说:slip out of the room 小姐走出房间应该说:sail out of the room 小孩走出房间应该说:dance out of the room 老人走出房间应该说:stagger out of the room 所以多用实词,少用虚词,文章将会大放异彩!

六、 多变句式原则。

1)加法(串联)都希望写下很长的句子,像个老外似的,可就是怕写错,怎么办,最保险的写长句的方法就是这些,可以在任何句子之间加and, 但最好是前后的句子又先后关系或者并列关系。比如说:I enjoy music and he is fond of playing guitar. 如果是二者并列的,我们可以用一个超级句式:Not only the fur coat is soft, but it is also warm. 其它的短语可以用:besides, furthermore, likewise, moreover

2)转折(拐弯抹角)批评某人缺点的时候,我们总习惯先拐弯抹角说说他的优点,然后转入正题,再说缺点,这种方式虽然阴险了点,可毕竟还比较容易让人接受。所以呢,我们说话的时候,只要在要点之前先来点废话,注意二者之间用个专这次就够了。The car was quite old, yet it was in excellent condition. The coat was thin, but it was warm. 更多的短语:despite that, still, however, nevertheless, in spite of, despite, notwithstanding

3)因果(so, so, so)昨天在街上我看到了一个女孩,然后我主动搭讪,然后我们去咖啡厅,然后我们认识了,然后我们成为了朋友…可见,讲故事的时候我们总要追求先后顺序,先什么,后什么,所以然后这个词就变得很常见了。其实这个词表示的是先后或因果关系!The snow began to fall, so we went home. 更多短语:then, therefore, consequently, accordingly, hence, as a result, for this reason, so that

4)失衡句(头重脚轻,或者头轻脚重)有些人脑袋大,身体小,或者有些人脑袋小,身体大,虽然我们不希望长成这个样子,可如果真的是这样了,也就必然会吸引别人的注意力。文章中如果出现这样的句子,就更会让考官看到你的句子与众不同。其实就是主语从句,表语从句,宾语从句的变形。举例:This is what I can do. Whether he can go with us or not is not sure. 同样主语、宾语、表语可以改成如下的复杂成分:When to go, Why he goes away…

5)附加(多此一举)如果有了老婆,总会遇到这样的情况,当你再讲某个人的时候,她会插一句说,我昨天见过他;或者说,就是某某某,如果把老婆的话插入到我们的话里面,那就是定语从句和同位语从句或者是插入语。The man whom you met yesterday is a friend of mine. I don’t enjoy that book you are reading. Mr liu, our oral English teacher, is easy-going. 其实很简单,同位语--要解释的东西删除后不影响整个句子的构成;定语从句—借用之前的关键词并且用其重新组成一个句子插入其中,但是whom or that 关键词必须要紧跟在先行词之前。

6)排比(排山倒海句)文学作品中最吸引人的地方莫过于此,如果非要让你的文章更加精彩的话,那么我希望你引用一个个的排比句,一个个得对偶句,一个个的不定式,一个个地词,一个个的短语,如此表达将会使文章有排山倒海之势!Whether your tastes are modern or traditional, sophisticated or simple, there is plenty in London for you. Nowadays, energy can be obtained through various sources such as oil, coal, natural gas, solar heat, the wind and ocean tides. We have got to study hard, to enlarge our scope of knowledge, to realize our potentials and to pay for our life. (气势恢宏) 要想写出如此气势恢宏的句子非用排比不可!

七、挑战极限原则。

既然十挑战极限,必然是比较难的,但是并非不可攀!原理:在学生的文章中,很少发现诸如独立主格的句子,其实也很简单,只要花上5分钟的时间看看就可以领会,它就是分词的一种特殊形式,分词要求主语一致,而独立主格则不然。比如:The weather being fine, a large number of people went to climb the Western Hills. Africa is the second largest continent, its size being about three times that of China. 如果你可以写出这样的句子,不得高分才怪!
