英语写作的方法指导
英语写作的方法指导1
1. 画龙点睛,一篇文章的开头很重要。
在通常情况下,英语句子的排列方式为“主语+谓语+宾语”,即主语一般都会在谓语前面。但若根据情况适当改变句子的开头方式,比如在文章的开始的时候写一些倒状语句或以状语为起始语句的开头,这样子的文章更具表现力和感染力。如:
(1) There stands an old temple at the top of the hill.
→ At the top of the hill there stands an old temple.
在小山顶上有一座古庙。
(2) You can do it well only in this way.
→ Only in this way can you do it well.
只有这样你才能把它做好。
(3) A young woman sat by the window.
→ By the window sat a young woman.
窗户边坐着一个年轻妇女。
2. 避免重复使用同一词语
为了使表达更生动,更富表现力,同学们在写作时应尽量避免重复使用同一词语来表示同一意思,尤其是一些老生常谈的词语。如有的同学一看到“喜欢”二字,就会立刻想起like,事实上,英语中表示类似意思的词和短语很多,如 love, enjoy, prefer, appreciate, be fond of, care for等。如:
I like reading while my brother likes watching television.
→ I like reading while my brother enjoys watching television.
我喜欢看书,而我的兄弟却喜欢看电视。
3. 合理使用省略句
合理恰当地使用省略句,不仅可以使文章精练、简洁,而且会使文章更具文采和可读性。如:
(1) He may be busy. If he’s busy, I’ll call later. If he is not busy, can I see him now?
→ He may be busy. If so, I’ll call later. If not, can I see him now?
他可能很忙,要是这样,我以后再来拜访。要是不忙,我现在可以见他吗?
(2) If the weather is fine, we’ll go. If it is not fine, we’ll not go.
→ If the weather is fine, we’ll go. If not, not.
如果天气好,我们就去;如果天气不好,我们就不去了。
(3) She could have applied for that job, but she didn’t do so.
→ She could have applied for that job, but she didn’t.
她本可申请这份工作的,但她没有。
4. 适当运用非谓语结构
非谓语结构通常被认为是一种高级结构,适当运用非谓语结构,会给人一种熟练驾驭语言的印象。如:
(1) When he heard the news, they all jumped for joy.
→ Hearing the news, they all jumped for joy.
听了这消息他们都高兴得跳了起来。
(2) As I didn’t know her address, I wasn’t able to get in touch with her.
→ Not knowing her address, I wasn’t able to get in touch with her.
由于不知道她的地址,我没法和她联系。
(3) As he was born into a peasant family, he had only two years of schooling.
→ Born into a peasant family, he had only two years of schooling.
他出生农民家庭,只上过两年学。
5. 结合使用长句与短句
在英语写作中,过多地使用长句或过多地使用短句都不好。正确的做法是,根据实际情况在文章中交替使用长句与短语,使文章显得错落有致,这样不仅使文章在形式上增加美感,而且使文章读起来铿锵有力。如:
At noon we had a picnic lunch in the sunshine. Then we had a short rest. Then we began to play happily. We sang and danced. Some told stories. Some played chess.
→ At noon we had a picnic lunch in the sunshine. After a short rest, we had great fun singing and dancing, telling jokes and playing chess.
中午我们晒着太阳吃野餐。休息一会儿后,我们唱的唱歌,跳的跳舞,还有的讲笑话、下棋,大家玩得很开心。
6. 适当使用短语代替单词
(1) He has decided to be a teacher when he grows up.
→ He has made up his mind to be a teacher when he grows up.
他已决定长大了当老师。
(2) He doesn't like music.
→ He doesn't care much for music.
他不大喜欢音乐。
(3) He told me that the question was now under discussion.
→ He told me that the question was now being discussed.
他告诉我问题现正正在讨论中。
7. 恰当套用某些固定表达
(1) He was very tired. He couldn’t walk any farther.
→ He was too tired to walk any farther.
他太累了,不能再往前走了。
(2) The film was very interesting. Both the teachers and the students liked it.
→ The film was so interesting that both the teachers and the students liked it.
这电影很有趣,学生和老师都很喜欢。
(3) Your son is old. He can look after himself now.
→ Your son is old enough to look after himself now.
你的儿子已经长大,可以自己照顾自己了。
8. 尽量使句子带点“洋味”
(1) Don't worry. Be bold and try it, and you'll learn it soon.
→Don't worry. Just go for it, and you'll get it soon.
别担心,大胆试一试,你很快就会学会的`。
(2) Thank you for playing with us.
→Thank you for sharing the time with us.
谢谢你陪我玩。
9. 综合使用各类所谓的“高级”结构
(1) Now everyone knows the news. I think Jim must have let it out.
→ Now everyone knows the news. I think it must have been Jim who has let it out.
现在人人都知道这消息了,我想一定是吉姆把它泄露出去的。
(2) We had to stand there to catch the offender.
→ What we had to do was (to) stand there, trying to catch the offender.
我们所能做的只是站在那儿,设法抓住违章者。
(3) If her pronunciation is not better than her teacher’s, it is at least as good as her teacher’s.
→ Her pronunciation is as good as, if not better than, her teacher’s.
如果她的语音不比她的老师好的话,至少也不会比她老师的差。
10. 适当使用名言警句点缀
在写作时根据实际情况恰当地用上一两句名言警句来点缀文章,不仅使文章显得有深度、有智慧,而且会让文章在评分中上一个“得分档次”。如:
(1) As the proverb says, “Where there is a will, there is a way.” Though you fail this time, you needn’t lose heart. As long as you work hard and stick to your dream, you will succeed one day.
(2) There is a proverb goes like this “Life isn’t a bed of roses.” It is ture that it is likely for everyone to meet problems and difficulties in life.
(3) In the modern world, more and more people live alone, which is not so good for our life. It is better for us to make more friends and enjoy friendship. Just as a proverb says, “A near friend is better than a far-dwelling kinsman.”

第一招:审题细心
审题好比驾驶员打方向,方向对了,哪怕开得慢点,也会顺利到目的地。如果审题不清,书面表达的成绩不知道会有多惨。学生真正开始写作前,必须花相当一部分时间做写前阅读、思考等准备,包含以下四方面:
1)审体裁。根据情景提示首先要弄清写何种体裁文章。
2)审结构。明确开始部分、正文部分和结尾部分,定好段。3)审格式。如日记、便条、书信、通知的格式等。
4)审内容。弄清什么必需写,哪些略写,尤其是图画式书面表达,要学会连贯性,读懂图的意思。
5)审人称和时态。弄清书面表达要求用何种人称,根据材料确定短文的基本时态。
第二招:衔接流畅
恰当使用逻辑词语,使各要点间连贯,行文通顺。比如表并列或递进: and, both…and, neither…nor,
not only…but also;表选择:or, either…or; 表转折或让步:but, although, though,
however, even though, in spite of, on the contrary; 表对比:like, unlike,
while; 表举例:for example, such as, that’s to say; 表强调:in fact, of course,
besides; 表时间顺序:when, after, before, as soon as, soon after;
表因果关系:because, since, as, for, for this reason,as a resu< 表结论:in a word, to sum up. In summary, in conclusion, on the whole;
第三招:短语地道
如果能多用短语,则可回避书面表达中的中式英语,同时也能减少错误几率。尤其在考试时,如果使用短语,会使文章增加亮点。
第四招:句式丰富
一篇可读性强的文章,通常能较好体现学生对英语语言结构、词块、句式的运用。因此各类句式的多元呈现往往可以提升书面表达的成绩。初中阶段英语写作常用的句式如下:
There be…;the more…the more…;It’s a for sb to do something;I think/believe/suppose…(宾从); It can’t be put into real experiment.(被动)等。尤其是复合句的适恰运用对提升文章的.层次很有帮助。
对大多数同学来说,仿写很重要,在教材和很多的阅读书籍中都蕴含着丰富的好词佳句。
第五招:情感真实
同样的话题,有些文章没什么情感,冷冰冰;有些文章很有温度,有真情实感。情感真实主要可通过如下方法实现:
1)内容的呈现。
比如:20xx年的中考英语:
书面表达My dream,大部分的作文都还是停留在表面上。但这个例子:I want to be a good father because my
daddy was always so busy when I was a little boy.He had no time with me and my mum…虽然文章的文采并不是很好,但很有真情实感,令读者有心动的感觉,也是好文章。
2)副词的运用。在句子的某些位置,添加副词,可以使句子和文段更有人性味,更有情感性。如:I really enjoy the beauty of the sea in the sun.加了一个really,就有味道。
第六招:思维多元
书面表达话题虽多元,但在设题上基本为半开放形式,因此半控制部分学生需要涵盖题目所给信息并进行适当发挥,而半开放部分,则要求学生根据话题内容、自己的生活阅历、个人思维层次结合自己的英语表述自己的个人看法。有些学生的英语水平比较好,但因为在思维上比较局限想不出比较有深度、宽度和广度的观点,这也会在一定程度上约束书面的质量。
第七招:整理独到
进入八年级以来,在平时写作、单元练习、期中期末考试中,考生已积累了一定量与教材同话题的自己写的英语小短文,建议在临考前的最后阶段把自己八年级以来
写的不同话题的文章进行修改,润色、整理、汇编成册,制作一本个性化私人定制的“书面表达秘籍”,以备中考前高效复习用,以不变应万变。
第八招:卷面美观
1)不做涂改。需要在平时的书面表达中养成简列提纲、打草稿,再誊抄到答题卡的习惯。
2)及时补救。如果对答题卡上的书面表达有修改,建议用斜线划掉相应部分。
3)勤练规范。临考前一个月,以中考答题卡的行距和长度为参照,设计自己字的大小,字的间距,每行的字数,以看起来舒服为准。
英语写作的方法指导3
第一段:考生需要简明扼要地阐述图片内容,并点出该图画的主题。第一句话引出话题:例如:Nothing gets people talking like the topic that parents ‘role in family education(图画反映出的话题);第二句话开始正式描述图画,包含两部分:中心人或物正在干什么,以及重要细节是什么,因为是两幅图,就分别描写即可。Just as we can see from the first picture,... But when glance at the second, we know tht…第三句可以简单翻译中文标题或是描述,或者直接引出主题And below the drawing, a title which says that…。
中间段为阐释段。首句一般点出图片的象征寓意,也就是明确指出图片反映的社会问题,也就是该篇作文的中心思想。这篇文章的主题是父母应该通过行动来做好孩子的`榜样,我们可以这样引出:What the cartoon really intend to extend is that parents should not only educate their children in words but also in deeds。具体的论证方法:原因,举例,对比、在这里,我们可以使用原因。这里有一些原因句型,可供大家参考:
1. Owning to /considering /given the fact that +原因
2.The major determinant lies in…
3. It is well known that/as we all know,… therefore, …
4. There is no doubt that… consequently, …
最后一段,给出评论或总结提建议。可以从怎样在行动上起到表率作用为切入口进行描述。

一、议论文的文体特点和写作要求
英语议论文同中文议论文一样也是以议论的方式,通过摆事实、讲道理来阐述自己观点的一种文体。高中英语议论文是一种限制性的写作, 其论点、论据、论证都必须十分明确,学生必须结合题目要求来阐述相关观点。
议论文的结构可分为三个部分:1、引言段引出一个令人关注的问题或明白地亮出自己的观点,如提倡什么,支持什么,反对什么。 2、主体段对提出的问题进行分析、推论、并运用归纳法、演绎法和类比法等进行论证,取得以理服人的效果。3、结论段可以用两三句话来结束文章,同时要注意重申论点,与引言段呼应,但不能照搬原话。务必做到论点明确、要点齐全、论证严密、结构严谨、层次分明、首尾呼应。
二、议论文的写作方法与技巧
一)、审好题
人们常说:“磨刀不误砍柴功”。审题是写作的开始,是写好作文的前提条件,“好的开始是成功的一半”,议论文写作也不例外。只有明确题目要求,确立观点,确定论证方法及全文段落安排,才可能成功写出一篇好的议论文。如果写偏了题,再精心的构思、再好的语言表达也是枉然。审题主要包括六个方面:一是判断议论文所属类型。英语议论文根据命题特点,从形式上来看可分为如下类型: ①“一分为二”的观点。如:“轿车大量进入家庭后,对家庭、环境、经济可能产生的影响”。②“两者选一”的观点。如:“乘火车还是乘飞机”。③“我认为……”型,如:“你对课外阅读的看法”。④“怎样……(how to)”型,如:“怎样克服学习中碰到的困难”。⑤ 图表作文,通过阅读图表中的数字与项目得出一个结论或形成一种看法(杨家贵,20xx)。二是确立该文的`论点或作者须持的观点,以及支撑论点的道理和事实。三是确定全文所包括的要点。四是确定段落数及每段适用的连接词、过渡句,使文章连接紧凑、过渡自然、层次分明。五是选择全文主要时态及各段适用的其它时态。六是判断该文的格式,是书信还是短文。审题完毕,随即列出提纲。
二)、注重主题句的设置
主题句又叫中心句(topic sentence),是段落的论点,限制段落中议论的范围,是整个段落的纲领。主题句必须要正确,要明确表明作者赞成什么,反对什么。主题句在一篇百来字的议论文中好比“画龙点睛”,帮助作者分层次阐述自己的观点,让读者快速了解作者的观点。
1、确定主题句的位置
英语议论文的主题句宜设在段首第一句,这是由以下两个因素决定的。1)、主题句出现的位置有三种情况:①在段首,以便读者浏览主题句就可掌握文章的概要,这个位置适用于写提供信息或解释观点的段落;②在段末;③段中(高长梅,20xx)。2)、英语民族的思维特点是常采用路标式(直线式)篇章结构,即主题句在段首。
2、写出好的主题句
好的主题句具有以下特点:①有一定的概括性,普遍性而不是罗列具体事实。②句意明确而不是模糊不着边际。③让人有话可写而不是给出无可辩驳的事实。④不以问题的方式出现,也不要同时表达两个以上的观点。笔者要求学生写了以下的主题句:
1)Staying up late is bad for our health.
2)The more cars, the better?
3)There are two reasons why some people are fascinated by Super Girls and two reasons why some dislike them.
4)Beijing is famous for the Great Wall, the Summer Palace, the Imperial Palace and other places of interest.
5)a. Tom is a middle school student.
b. Tom is a hard-working middle school student.
6)Living in small cities is better than living in big cities.
然后让学生对照主题句的特点,他们一致认为1)、5)b、6)为好的主题句。在实践和对比中,学生学会了如何写好的主题句,并且运用到议论文写作中,收到较好效果,见以下实例(下段黑体部分是主题句)。
Everyone lives by selling something. For example, teachers live by selling knowledge, philosophers by selling wisdom and priests by selling spiritual comfort. Though it may be possible to measure the value of material goods in terms of money, it is extremely difficult to calculate the true value of services which people perform for us. The conditions of society are such that skills have to be paid for in the same way that goods are paid for at a shop. Everyone has something to sell.
由此可见,好的主题句能帮助作者阐明观点,起到提纲挈领的作用。作者围绕段落的中心论点,运用多种方法展开论证,达到以理服人的效果。
三)、用好连接词和过渡句
从行文需要出发选用恰当的连接词、过渡句可使整篇文章文句流畅,句意转换自然,同时使表达合乎逻辑,文章结构严谨。倘若一篇议论文的段落里不乏高级词汇和复杂语法结构,但缺少了连接词、过渡句的润色而不能从一个观点自然地过渡到另一个观点,或段落里的各论据(supporting sentence)连接松散,势必削弱论证的效果,就算不上一篇好的议论文。下面分别说明如何有效运用连接词与过渡句。
1、句与句的连接词
连接词通常由连词、副词、介词短语和插入语等充当。如何有效使用连接词,使句意连贯、紧凑,以体现文章良好的严密的论证逻辑?
2.段与段的过渡句
过渡句帮助作者展示文章的条理和层次。恰当运用过渡句能使表达锦上添花。当文章从一个层次转换到另一个层次,或由一段内容转入另一段内容时需要用过渡句。恰当有效的运用过渡句,效果明显(见下文,题目及要求略,黑体部分为过渡句)。
Wearing school uniform every day spreads an order over many schools. Is it good or bad for students? Different people, however, have different opinions on this matter.
Some people say that it has a bad effect on developing students’ personal character. According to them, students are tired of wearing the same clothes every day, which is hard to tell who’s who. Furthermore, the cost of the school uniform is not low as many people think. With the bad quality, it’s not well worth the money.
However, as a popular saying goes: “Every coin has two sides.” Others argue that it is good for students. In their opinion, wearing school uniform will prevent students from wasting so much money on clothes and the time on catching up with the fashion. In addition, it’s easy for the teachers to recognize the students. There is no doubt that wearing school uniform every day is good for students.
In short, I firmly support the view that we should wear school uniform.(康珍,20xx)
上文黑体部分综合体现了恰当、有效运用连接词和过渡句的最佳效果。全文行文流畅、衔接自然、条理清楚,浑然不觉作者是在套用各种连接词和过渡句。因此,非常有必要熟记一些常用典型的议论文过渡句,使议论文结构严谨,论点清楚,行文流畅。
1)引言段的常用过渡句
Recently we had a heated discussion on…, Opinions are various among different people.
Different people have different opinions on the question of …
They differ greatly in their attitudes towards …
Different people hold different views/opinions on this matter.
Although most people think… I believe…
此类过渡句能迅速引起读者注意,自然而然地引出全文要讨论的话题,或者开门见山地阐明文章的论点。
2)主体段的常用过渡句
Some may hold the view that… because… But others have a negative attitude. From their point of view…
Some people think that… While others believe…
Some people are for the idea of… because… But some people are against the idea of… because …
本文所指议论文的主体段可以是一段也可以是两段。通过正确使用过渡句,文章思路清晰,结构清楚,显示作者严谨思维,增强表达效果。
3)结论段的常用过渡句
As far as I am concerned, I totally agree with the statement that…
Therefore, it’s easy to draw the conclusion that…
As a consequence/result, I firmly support the view that…
Taking all these factors into consideration, we may reach the conclusion that…
To sum up/in a word/in conclusion/in short/above all/in general/ generally speaking, I still hold the view that…
运用过渡句的提示作用进入结论段,作者或是重申论点,或是强调论点,以便加深读者对全文的了解和深刻认识。
英语议论文范文:
Should Examination Be Abolished (取消)?
The examination system has come to be the main theme (主题)of modern education. One should take an examination andsucceed in passing it before he could be admitted, promoted or graduated. As it plays so important a role in the realm of education (教育的领域) it is under much criticism (评论) as to its validity (有效性) . People who are in favour of it try to develop this system more; those who are against it believe that such a system should be abolished. Should examination be abolished? In my opinion it should be.
Many people think that an examination is the only means to test knowledge, but, in fact, that is not true. A few questions given in an examination could by no means cover the whole field of the subject. Thus those who are able to answer them may be the poorest of the students and yet happen to know just a few points about that subject.
I'd like to say that, because of the existence of the examination system, students pay so much attention to gaining high marks, that they often forget the chief purpose of education. The so-called clever students devote (贡献) themselves to the study of textbooks only. They, of course, know nothing but the skeleton (梗概) of knowledge. The end and aim of education, however, is to enable students to learn how to live. To do this, students must get themselves to do all kinds of training, physicalas well as mental. The present examination system has discouraged students from making such an attempt.
Moreover, since the students try so hard to put their lessons into memory in as short a time as possible, psychologically (心理上来看), they soon forget the whole subject as soon as the examination is over. Surely this is one of the greatest wastes ever made in the history of civilization.
Lastly, in order to get high marks, there is a great temptation (诱惑) for students to cheat (作弊) in an examination. Indeed, such a practice becomes the means to the end. They cheat their teachers, their parents and also themselves. Such a tendency would impair (损害) our moral standards (道德标准) .
Therefore, I am of the opinion, in conclusion, that the examination system should be abolished.
英语写作的方法指导6
在应用文的写作过程中,考生应思路清晰,运用恰当的语句来表达意思。此外,还要使短文层次分明,合乎逻辑。意思连贯是指句子与句子、段落与段落之间衔接自然,整体性强。所用句子要完整、连贯、简洁。完整包括意义的完整和结构的完整。连贯是指句子各部分之间衔接自然。简洁就是要做到只要意思充分表达了,用词越少越好。当然,句式还要有所变化,不出现重大语法错误。文章的长度符合要求。大纲对两篇短文的字数都有明确要求,考生在写作时应当注意控制字数,使写出的短文长度符合要求。
“大小”有不同
考研英语小作文和大作文不同,有其独特的特点。大致可分二十多个类型,例如申请信,介绍信等等。很多同学往往会忽视小作文的复习,认为掌握了这几种类型的模板就可以拿高分。实际上从历年的考生成绩来看,小作文得高分却很难。小作文虽然分值不如大作文,但仍占有不小的比重,而且难度也不大,所以大家务必好好把握,让小作文变成你的得分点。 “磨刀不误砍柴工”,大家在拿到题目后应该先认真审题,弄清题目后再开始写,同时还应注意要包括提纲或图画的全部要点和信息。确保作文结构清晰、表达清楚、意思连贯。
字数少,易得分
应用文的篇幅很短,这使得我们很容易得分。试想,如果想在阅读理解中得到10分,你需要在理解一篇500-600字的文章的基础上答对5道选择题。从这个角度而言,小作文的确是容易拿分的部分,应该成为考生提分的一个板块。从历年的考试情况来看,小作文的难度并不是很大,所以大家就更要花点时间,把小作文搞定。应用文的.这一个特点,仍然是和它的套路性、格式化有关。因此,我们更加需要用词的准确性。需要我们对于一些语言的语体特点(genre features)进行区分。以免让词汇的语体影响到准确性。写给机构的信函,应该避免使用太口语化的语言。正因为这种套路的稳定性,对于同等基础的考生来讲,这部分很难达到技压群雄的效果,很难拉开和别人的距离。也就是说,对于所有的考生来说,得10分不容易,但是得2分甚至4分也很不容易。
