篇一:英语作文范例

Thanks for Liu's Hospitality

Aug. 18, 1989

Dear Liu Dong,

I'm back at school now. I wish to express my thanks to you for the wonderful vacation I spent with you and your family. During the vacation you taught me how to swim, boat and fish. I really appreciate① your taking time off work to take② me around and show me so many places.

Your mother is such a terrific③ cook! I think I must have gained 10 pounds just in the week I spent with you. Surely I've spent a happy vacation, which will be remembered for long.

I hope you will be able to visit our school sometime. Thank you again. Let's keep in touch.〖您正浏览的文章由查字典范文网http://fanwen.chazidian.com整理,版权归原作者、原出处所有。〗

篇二:英语作文范例

有人说,写作是将其内在思维组织成文,再用语言外化表达的复杂过程,大致分为三个阶段:

1.构思:构思是写作的起始酝酿阶段,是动笔成文前的准备阶段,也是写作成功的重要阶段。考虑写作的目的、内容、方法:

2.表述:表述是写作具体实施阶段,是将前期的思考外在具体化,将思维转换成文字。是写作过程的主体阶段。精妙的构思需用精彩的语言来表达。

3.修改:修改过程是写作的调整完善阶段,是写作的收尾结束阶段:对整个语篇进行反复修改、删节……

英语作文的形式有说明文(Exposition),议论文(Argumentation),叙述文(Narration)和描写文(Description)四种。不论写哪一种作文,你都必须首先选词(word),造句(sentence),然后组段(paragraph),成文(composition)。因此,同学们学习用英语写作文,最好不要一开始就忙于追究说明文怎么个写法。议论文怎么个写法等等,而应该花一定的时间和精力练习写作文的基本功,也就是学习和获取选词、造句、组段、谋篇的知识和能力。如果你具备了这几方面的知识和能力,再具体了解一下各种表式的作文特点,分别研究一下它们的独特写法,你自然就可以不拘一格地写出各种不同形式和内容的好作文来了。一、选词

词是选句的原料。选词应该注意以下几点:

1.分辨语体。英语词有书面语体和口语体之分。例如,laboratory-lab(实验室),mathe-matics-maths(数学),examination-exam(考试),continue-goon(继续),doesnotdoesn"t,couldnot-couldn"tIam-I"m等,前者是书面语词,后者是口语词。写作文的时候,应该用书面语为主,少用口语词,以便使作文的语体和用词的色彩和谐一致。由于现行中学课本里的英语词,绝大部分是中性词,没有太强烈的语体色彩,它们既可以用在口语里,也可以用在书面语里,所以这个问题同学们暂时不必深究,知道一下就行了。

2.识别词义。英语里面有许多同义词,还有一词多义的情况。选词造句的时候必须注意自己在使用词语的哪一个意思,以及能不能那样用。例如,whether和if都有“是否”的意思。你可以写:

Idonotknowwhether(或if)hehasbeentoLondon.

但是你不能写(*号表示错句,下同):

*Ifhewillattendthemeetingdoesnotmattertoomuch.

这里必须把If改为Whether,才能表示“他是否出席那个会议关系不大”。

另外,If这个词既可以表示“是否”,也可以表示“如果”。假如你写出这样一个句子:

Ishalltellyouifhewillcome.

读者就不知道你想说“我将告诉你他是否愿意来”,还是“如果他愿意来的话,我会告诉你”。为了避免歧义,表达前者的时候,你应该把if换成whether;表达后者的时候,你应该用if。

总的来说,造句的时候,应该选择自己有把握的、简单常用的、词义明确的词,而不要用自己心中无数的、冷僻的、可能产生歧义的词。

3.明确词性。英语词有一词多性的现象,也有同一个词根派生出几个单词,它们的词义大致相同,但词性各不相同。例如die(动词),death(名词),dead(形容词)都是“死亡”的意思,但它们的词性不同,用法也不同。下面这个句子就是用错了不同词性的“死”字。

*Theherohasdiedforoneyear.Hisdeadmadeusfeelsorrow.

第一句hasdied应改为hasbeendeed,第二句dead应改为death。

4.词义联展与语用习惯。

有些人只满足于知道一个英语单词单方面意义,记住它的汉语对应词,而不注意它的词义联展关系和语用习惯,这样往往会造成错误。譬如在汉语里,不管是“向人借”还是“借给人”都要用借字,而英语则不是这样。前者用borrow,后者要用lend,两者不可互换。如果你把“看书”、“看电影”、“看电视”、“看着我”这几句话中的“看”全部译成look那就大错特错了。应译成:"readalook""seeafilm""watchTV""lookatme"再如:“我的心跳得很快”。只能说"Myheartisbeatingfast"而不是说:"Myheartisjumpingfast."所以说正确使用英语单词,就得了解其词义系统和语用习惯,"Listencarefully,oryouwon"tbeabletohearanything"一句中的listen和hear的涵义决不是等同的。

还有一点也应当引起注意,在英语中有一些同源异义词,也就是说同出一个词根而词义不同的词。如respectable,respectful,和respective.看到它们同出一个词根,就想当然地认为它们的意思也差不多一样,于是就不加分解地使用。这样肯定会出错。我们说"Heisamostrespectablecomrade"的意思是“他是个很受人敬重的同志”,而"Heisalwaysrespectfultoolderpeople"他对年长的人总是彬彬有礼”,一个是“可敬的”一个是“(对人)表示尊敬的”。至于respective更是相差千里。看下面一句"Thechildrenwenttotheirrespectiverooms"“孩子们各自去自己的房间。”respective是“各自的”的意思。

其次,在掌握词义的同时还要注意它的语法作用,以便能准确地用在句子里,达到交际的目的。(a)注意有的词只限于一定的结构,如:我们可以说:"Theboyisstillsleeping"也可以说"Theboyisstillasleep!"。而"thesleepboy"却不能换成"theasleepboy"。"thesickman"却不能说:anillman(指环人)。(b)注意词性,看下面的句子,"I"mensurethathewillcome"这句话错就错在把ensure当成了形容词,这样句子就说不通了。另外,英语单词一词多词性的情况也很普遍,使用时要注意。"Givemeaglassofwater."(名词)"Hiseyeswateredinthesmoke"(动词);(C)注意两个词搭配在一起时所产生新义。如:housework(家务活),homework(家庭作业),foreignexchange(外汇)等。

5.成语的运用。成语(ldioms)是长期以来惯用的固定词组,它表达完整的意义,必须作为一个整体来记,不可以随心所欲地增一词或减一词。如:Shegoestoschool.“她去上学”,而"Shegoestotheschool."则是:她去学校(办事)。Shekeepshouse“她料理家”;而Shekeepsthehouse则是:她足不出户”,后一句中都多了一个定冠词,意思就不大一样。在学习,记忆使用成语时,一定要搞懂,不能似懂非懂的,望文生义。比如;"Themachineisinrepair."看到repair这个词,就想到了修理,认为这句话的意思是:“这台机器在修理之中”。其实这句话的意思是:“这台机器是好的”。再如;将"Iboughtataperecorderforasong"理解为“我买了一台录音机来听歌”是错误的,该句的意思是“我廉价买了一台录音机”。这类例子很多,有时一个小小的冠词,使句子的意义大变,有时会因为一个形容词、副词的位置不同,使句子产生异议,诸如此类,不胜枚举,下面选择数例,帮助同学们对此有些了解,而获助益。

1)a)Anumberofmemberareabsent.

b)Thenumberofmembersisalarming

a)多数的会员没有到会。

b)会员人数多得令人惊奇。

英语中number一字,有两个主要的含义:一为“数目”或“总数”,如(b)例。所以是单数形式。一为“许多”或“多数”,如(a)例,所以用复数。

2)a)Shewaswithachild。

b)Shewaswithchild。

a)她带了一个孩子。

b)她身怀六甲。bewithchild=bepregnant怀孕

3)a)Iaskyounothing。

b)Iasknothingofyou。

c)Iaskyoufornothing。

a)我没什么要问你的。

b)我没什么要求你的。

c)我没什么要请求你的。

注:b)句有时可以说成a),因为这个of是outof的意思。c)askfor意为demand(要求,请求),如askforsomemoney.(要些钱)。

4)a)Heiscertainofreturning.

b)Heiscertaintoreturn.

a)他自信一定要回来。

b)他一定要回来。

注:a)句是表示其主语的(他),对自己将要回来的事毫无疑惑;b)句是说别人对他将要回来的那件事没有怀疑。同样:Heissureofsuccess.(他自认一定成功。)Heissuretosucceed.(我想他一定成功。)

5)a)Heistheonlysonofapoorman.

b)Heisonlyasonofapoorman.

a)他是个穷人的独子。

b)他不过是一个穷人的儿子。

注:a)句中only作形容词,比较简单,在b)中,only作副词用就复杂一些了。作副词用的only是尽可能接近它所修饰的词,否则意义就不同。随着一个句子的词语多少,而使only一词变动位置,可以产生同等数目而意义不同的句子出来。如由only,theEnglish,love,sports四词构成的句子。则产生下列四种不同的句子:

1)OnlytheEnglishlovesports.(只有英国人爱好运动。)意指没别人。2)TheEnglishonlylovesports.(英国人只是爱好运动而已),而并不实际去运动。3)TheEnglishlovesportsonly.(英国人只爱好运动。)别的都不爱好。4)TheEnglishlovetheironlysports.(英国人爱好他们唯一的运动。)并没有别的运动。

仅举数例,可见一斑,因此,同学们在用词造句时一定要对成语的涵义有透彻的理解,不可一知半解就轻易使用。这样就会出错,闹出笑话。

总之,要用词达意,用词不要从汉语出发,要从英语出发。只有彻底弄清词的涵义及语法作用才能用得恰当,才能准确表达思想。

6.注意拼写。同学们写作文时常出现的拼写错误有双写遗漏,例如geting,应为getting;字母倒置,例如recieve,应为receive;移行不当,例如successfully,应为success-fully等等。此外,还有i上面漏一点,t漏一横,大小写和标点等同题。

7.使用词典。写作文应当勤查词典。对拼写、移行、发音、词性、词义或用法有疑问,都可以向词典求教。词典有两大类,汉英词典和英汉词典。如果你忘记了“想当然”英语怎么译,你可以查汉英词典“想”字条,便知道它是takesth.forgranted,如果你拿不准usedto(过去常常)后面接动名词还是不定式,你可以查英汉词典use条,便知道它接不定式。值得一提的是,同学们应该试用一英汉双解词典,并逐渐过渡到使用英英词典,即用英语解释英语的词典,这对准确掌握词义,学习多种表达方法很有好处。二、造句

句子是表达意思的最小单位。按目前中学的实际情况,造句首先要注意语法问题,尤其是:

1.主谓齐全。作为一个句子,在一般情况下都应具备主语和谓语,但同学们写的句子经常出现主谓残缺不全的现象。例如:

Aftergraduatedfromtheinstifute,Einsteinworkedforashorttimeinthegovernment.

在这个句子里,after不是作介词用,而作连词,引导一个状语从句,所以不能缺少主语he,应该写作Afterhegraduated...。

又如*Thisplaceveryquietandclean.Theywillstayhereafewmoreweeks.

该句主语Thisplace和表语veryquietandclean之间不能没有连系动词is,否则这个句子的谓语部分就残缺不全。

2.关系一致。这里包括主谓关系的一致、代词指代关系的一致、句子前后时态关系的一致等等。例如:

*LittleTomaswellashisparentslikeswimming.

这句的谓语动词like应该与aswellas前面的主语Tom保持一致关系,所以应为likes。

又如,*"Helpyourselftothefish,"theHostsaidtoMr.Smithandme.

“请吃鱼”这句话是对史密斯先生和我两个人说的,所以前面的代词yourself应为yourselves。

3.词序恰当。英语词的词序有些是有规则可循的,有些要根据作者强调的重点调整位置。例如:

Healwaysgetsupearly.Heisneverlateforschool.

象always.never,often,seldom这些频度副词一般放在行为动词的前面,连系动词、助动词或情态动词的后面。

又如,OnlyWangMingsawsomeforeignersintheChildren"sPalace.(强调只有王明看见)

WangMingonlysawsome...。(强调只是看见)

WangMingsawonlysomeforeigners....(强调看见的只是一些外国人,没有中国人等。)

WangMingsaw...onlyintheChildren"spalace.(强调只是在少年宫看见,而不是在别的地方看见。)

在语法过关的基础上造句还应该注意几个修辞上的问题。

1.突出中心。这里包含两层意思。首先,一个句子应该有一个中心意思,不能前面说东后面道西,令人不得要领。第二,确定了一个句子的中心是表达什么意思,就要运用修饰手段把这个意思强调出来。例如,

Beingafamousscientist,Mr,Hunterhasmsdeanimportantinvention,buthisdaughterdidnotlethimtakethepaperstoLondonhimself.

这个句子语法没错,但意思很分散。前面说享特先生是著名科学家,中间说他作出重大发明,后面说他的女儿不让他亲自把图纸送去伦敦。应该把它分成三个独立的句子,各自表达一个中心意思。

Mr.Hunterisafamousscientist.Hehasmadeanimportantinventionrecently.HewantedtotakehispaperstoLondonhimself,buthisdaughterdidnotlethimdoso.

又如,Mr,Brownisthemanageroftheshop.Iamonlyhisassistant.Mr.Brownwilldecidethepriceofallgoodsintheshop.

第三个句子的中心意思,显然是要强调只有布朗先生才能决定商品的价格,但是原句没有把这个意思突出出来,所以最好把它改为ItisMr.Brown,notIwhowilldecide...或Theprice...willbedecidedbyMr.Brown,notbyme.

2.前后连贯。这是指一个句子里的词语要衔接得当,关系清楚,合乎逻辑。例如:

*Idonotliketosingordancing.

这里sing和dance都是like的宾语,但前面用不定式,后面用动名词,就显得不平衡,句子的连贯性就差。所以应改为Idonotliketosingortodance.

又如*Althoughverytired,thestepmotherforcedAqiaotocutqrassforthesheep.

这个句子按理是说虽然阿巧很累了,继母还强迫她割草。但原句条理不清,说成是继母很累,还强迫阿巧割草。这样的句子连贯性也很差,应改为

AlthoughAqiaowasverytired,thestepmotherforcedhertocut...或

Althoughverytired,Aqiaowasforced(bythestepmother)tocut...

3.简练。不要堆砌修饰性词语。在没有把握的情况下,不要用从句。应该多用简单句。例如翻译如下一句:“当我在打乒乓球的时候,就决定要到湖里去游泳。”有以下两种译法:

①WhileIwasplayingtabletennis,IdecidedthatIwouldgoforaswiminthelake.

②Whileplayingtabletennis,Idecidedtogoforaswiminthelake.

以上两句从语法上讲都正确,但第二句简洁,运用了一个短语代替了一个从句,达到了简洁的目的。

又如,WhenChristmaswascoming,DellahadnotenonghmoneytobuyJim,whoisherhusband,apresent,soshewenttoashoptosellherhairinorderthatshecouldbuyagoldchainworthyofJim"sgoldwatch.

这个句子过份冗长,既有并列句,也有复合句,复合句中既有时间状语从句、目的状语从句,还有定语从句。与其辛辛苦苦去构筑这样的复杂句子,还不如把它分为几个简单句,显得轻松、洗练一些。

Christmaswascoming.DellahadnotenoughmoneytobuyapresentforhishusbandJim.Soshehadtosellherhair.Aftershegotthemoney,sheboughtJimagoldchain.

下面再谈谈初学写作时在造句方面常出现的一些错误实例。

1)句子冗长累赘、意思重复,例如:

①Thearmyadvancedforwardafterthebigbattle.(一场大的战斗后,部队向前进发。)这个句子的问题在于句中的"advanced"本身就是"marchforward"的意思,而在其后出现"forward"实属多余,应去掉。

②ThereasonwhyItookoffmycoatwasbecauseIfelthot.用词多,绕圈子,太罗嗦。可以改成:Itookoffmycoat,becauseIfelthot.简短明了。只要句意明确,多余部分应尽量删去。

2)修饰语的位置不对。修饰语的位置用错直接影响意思的准确表达。这一点在文章上一部分已谈到。我们再来看两个例子。

①Inearlylostfivedollarsyesterday.

Ilostnearlyfivedollarsyesterday.

这两句话由于nearly的位置不同,其含义也截然不同。第一句“我昨天差点丢了5美元”,言下之意是:没丢钱。第二句“我昨天丢了近五美元”意思是我丢了钱。不过不到5美元。

再如:②Shedecidednottogo.他决定不去了。Shedidnotdecidetogo.他没决定去呀。否定词用在不同的位置上,意思大不一样。因此,平时在阅读和练习中要注意。

3)代词所指不明确。例如:

Peggyheldapieceofbreadandjaminonehandandthetelephonereceiverintheother.Shekepteatingitwhileshetalked.后面一句话中的"it"指什么呢?指"apieceofbreadandjam"还是指"telephonereceiver",这使人费解。在英语写作中要避免这种指代不清的句子。这句话可改为:Peggyheldinonehandthetelephonereceiverandintheotherapieceofbreadandjam,whichshekepteatingwhileshetalkcd.

4.模糊不清的比较。例如:

①IlikeJohnasmuchasTom.这句话里究竟是IlikeJohnasmuchasIlikeTom,还是IlikeJohnasmuchasTomlikesJohn.这种比较模糊不清。

②Myhomeisnearertoourschoolthanyours.不知这里的yours是指yourhome.还是yourschool.这句话应改为:Myhomeisnearertoourschoolthanyoursis.或Myhomeisnearertoourschoolthanitistoyours.

③Tomistallerthananyoneinhisclass.这里的比较是不符合逻辑的,因为被比较的对方包括了Tom和他班里的任何人(他自己也不例外)。

下面我们再说说有关释意能力问题。

学习英语写作,我们应学会释义(Paraphrase).就是用不同的词语来表达或说明一个词或句的意思。表达要正确,这种能力在阅读时要注意培养。一是注意老师在讲解生词时的释义,二是用英英词典学习释义。学会释义能更好地克服从汉语出发抠汉语字眼的毛病。汉语中说“拖某人的后腿”其涵义是牵制、阻挠别人作某事。理解了这层含义,就可以根据不同的上下文来选择不同的英语来表达这个意思。如:"holdsb.back,beadragonsb,blinder(impede,prevent)sb.fromdoingsth."等:学会释义,在用英语学习写作时遇到一些一时表达不出的思想时,就可以帮助我们越过词,句的障碍,去加以释义。

我们前面所谈到的都是练习用英语写作时要注意的一些基本问题,一般来说,练习写作是由开始的模仿性写作,到控制性写作(如改写文章、缩写文章、写提纲、复述等等)。写英文日记是练习英语写作的好办法,每天写几句。天长日久,笔头得到较多的锻炼。最后进入自由写作阶段。三、组段

段落是文章中相对独立的一个部分。它通常由主旨句、扩展句和结尾句组成。例如:

Bamboohasmanyuses.Manypeopleuseittomakechairs,tables,curtains,birdcagesandsoon.Itstenderyoungshootscanbeeaten.Thesoftpulpinsidethestemscanbemadeintoafinepaper.Nowonderpeoplesaybambooisausefulplant.

这段话共有五个句子。第一句是主旨句,说竹有许多用途。第

二、

三、四句是扩展句,说明竹有哪些用途。第五句是结尾句,说明竹是一种有用的植物。

下面分别谈主旨句、扩展句和结尾句的写法。

1.主旨句。主旨句揭示该段内容的中心,放在段落的开头。从修辞上看,主旨句宜用比较简洁的句子,使读者易于领会该段的主旨:下面这段话还未有主旨句,请同学们阅读之后从A、B、C、D中选一个做主旨句。

主旨句。Thehibenatinganimal"stemperaturedropstojustoverzerocentigrade.Itbreathesonlyonceeveryfiveminutes.Itdoesnotfeelanypain.Youcanbeatitwithoutcausingittowakeup.Sohibernatinganimalslookasiftheyweredead.

A.Asyouknow,hibernationismuchdeeperthanacommonsleep.

B.Animalsneedhibernation.

C.Hibernationisaverydeepsleep.

D.Howcanhibernatinganimalssleepallthroughthewinter?

上面B、D两句不能说明这段话的中心,不能做主旨句。A、C两句都能说明这段话的中心,但是A句不如C句简洁明了,所以用C句做这段话的主旨句最恰当。

2.扩展句。扩展句的内容必须围绕主旨句,支持主旨句。偏离主旨句的扩展句等于画蛇添足,应该删去。从修辞上看,几个扩展句如果能分别用简单句,并列句和复合句,则整个段落会显得生动一些,而不至于那么单调、呆板。下面这段话里,有一个扩展句是偏离主旨的,请同学们把它找出来。

Itiseasytodothisexperiment.First,yougetagiassofwaterandapencil.Thenyouputthepencilintothewater.Atthistime,youwillseethepencilappearsbroken.Perhapsyouhaveoncefoundthisthingbefore.Theexpenmentshowsthatlightwaveschangespeedwhentheygofromairintowater.

在这段话里,First..,Then...和Atthistime...这三个扩展句都是说明“这个实验很容易做”这个主旨的。但是Perhaps...这个句子偏离了这个主旨,它跟这个实验的做法无关,应该删去。

扩展句可以按照时间、方位、因果、对比、类别等关系来组织。例如上面这段话里的扩展句是以时间为序来安排的。“组段”的开头,说竹有很多用途那段话,是以方位(茎、根、髓)为序来安排扩展句的。

3.结尾句。结尾句是对主旨句的呼应,它通常导出扩展句所陈述的结果。下面这段话还没有结尾句,请同学们阅读之后,从A、B、C、D中选一句做它的结尾句。

Howcanwestoppollution?Themostimportantthingistopasscertainlawstopreventfactoriesfromsendingoutnoise,poisonousgasesanddirtywater.Besides,weshouldprotectforestsandplantmoretrees.Meanwhile,everyoneofusmustpaycloseattentiontopublichealthandkeepoursurroundingsclean.

A.Inspiteofallthesemeasures,westillcannotdefeatpollution.

B.Sopollutionisaseriousproblemthatneedsallthesocietytocareabout.

C.However,pollutionwillstillexistandwemustnotletdownourguardagainstit

D.Inthisway,weshallwinthebattleagainstpollution.

显然,D句与主旨句呼应最密切,它导出了立法、保护森林、植树、注意公共卫生和搞好环境清洁等措施的结果。所以,应该选D句做本段的结尾句。四、谋篇

一篇文章应有比较完整的内容和结构。它通常包含引言段、扩展段和结论段。这和我们汉语作文的起、承、转、合是基本一致的。下面请读一篇论述时间的价值的文章。

TheValueofTime

Aproverbsays:"Timeismoney."Butinmyopinion,timeisevenmorepreciousthanmoney.Why?Becausewhenmoneyisspent,wecanearn(赚)itback.However,whentimeisgone,itwillneverreturn.Thisisthereasonwhywemustvaluetime.

Itgoeswithoutsayingthatthetimewecanuseislimited.Therefore,evenanhourisextremelyprecious.Weshouidmakefulluseofourtimetodousefulthings.Asstudentswemustnotrelax(放松)oureffortstoengageinourstudiessoastoservesocietyandournationinthefuture.

Butitisapitythattherewerealotofpeoplewhodonotknowtheimportanceoftime.Theyspendtheirprecioustimesmoking,drindingandchatting.Theydonotrealizethatwastingtimeisequaltowastingapartoftheirvaluablelife.

Inaword,weshouldformthegoodhabitofsavingtime.Donotputoffwhatcanbedonetodayuntiltomorrow.

这篇文章有四段。第一段是引言段,提出时间比金钱更宝贵,我们必须珍惜时间这个论题。第二段是扩展段,说明时间是有限的,作为学生更要充分利用它来学习,以利将来为国家服务。第三段也是扩展段,指出有些人还没有认识时间的价值。第四段是结论段,作出我们必须养成节约时间习惯的诊断。这四段话刚好是起——承——转——合的结构。

从这篇文章还可以看到,英语作文的起承转合会用上一些特定的词语。下面分别作简单的介绍。

1.常用在引言段开头(起)的词语:

Generailyspeaking,...一般地说,……

Aproverbsays,"..."有句谚语说,“……”

Manypeopleoftenaskthisquestion,"..."许多人常常问这个司题,“……?”

Firstofall...首先……/Atpresent...当今……

2.常用在第一个扩展段开头(承)的词语:

Totake...foranexample,……以……为例

Nowthatweknowthat...既然我们知道……

Whatismoreimportantisthat...更为重要的是……

Thatcanbeexpressedasfollows:...这可以分述如下:……

inotherwords,换句话说

second,第二,

3.常用在第二扩展段开头(转)的词语:

Butitisapitythat...但是很可惜,……

Buttheproblemisnotsoslmple.但是问题并非如此简单。

Ontheotherhand,...另一方面,……

Onthecontrary,...相反……

However,...然而……

4.常用在结论段开头(合)的词语:

Inaword,...总而言之,……

Onaccountofthis,wecanfindthat...由此我们可以知道……

Inconclusion,结论是……

Inshort,...简言之,……

Ashasbeennoted...如前所述……

Therefore,...因此,……

Atlast,...最后,……

下面有一篇文章谈论“我们为什么要参加体育运动”。它的引言段、扩展段和结论段的次序是混乱的,请同学们按起承转合的顺序把它们排正,并注意段落开头表示起承转合的词语。

Whyshouldwetakepartinsportsandgames?

①Therefore,everyoneofus,youngorold,manorwoman,shouldtakeanactivepartinsportsandgames.

②Besides,sportsandgamesarealsogoodforcharacter-training.Unselfishness,courage,discipline,loveofone"scountryandsoon,arevirtuesthatacitizenshouldhave.Studentslearnalotaboutthesefrombooks.Butinsportsandgamestheylearntoplayfair,cooperatewithotherteammembers,goallouttowinthematchandthinkofhonorofthegroup.Allthiswillhelpthemtobecomebettereitizens.

④Itgoeswithoutsayingthatsportsandgamesarenotonlyamusements.Theyareofgreatvaluebothtoone"sbodyandmind.

上文四个段落的正确排列次序是④—③—②—①。还要指出的是,这篇文章的两个扩展段③和②,都是说明体育运动的价值,起“承”的作用,所以这篇文章没有“转”这个环节。

最后尚需强调的是在命题作文中有很多学生没有表达主要思想,很多学生不会运用细节来扩充主题句。这是因为在平时训练中多为“词—句—段”式。缺乏衔接性、逻辑性等,致使他们的写作水平停留在词汇、语法、句型的运用上。须知,内容是文章的灵魂,是前提,也是写作的目的,应加足够注意。同时要从语篇水平上考虑谋篇布景,内容表达、语法修辞等诸方面的训练,这应是写作教学的重点之一。

篇四:范例英语作文

Grammar or Communication

There appears a phenomenon that more attention is given to cultivating communication skills while grammar is neglected in English teaching. Under this prevailing trend, many people hold the belief that communication is the main purpose of teaching English; some even go so far to say many tests don’t take grammar seriously.

However, many factors should be responsible for this phenomenon. On the one hand, with wide criticism from the public and media, grammar is thought to be the cause of the so-called “deaf and dumb” English. On the other hand, influenced by communicative teaching method, many teachers insist that communication skills should be the priority in English teaching. As a consequence, many a student cannot write an article without serious grammatical, spelling and tense mistakes.

As far as I’m concerned, grammar and communication should be balanced in English teaching, neither should be overemphasized at the expense of the other. With grammatical abilities, a good article will be written; with communicative skills, “deaf and dumb” English will meet its fate.

Should Students Drive Private Cars on Campus?

Nowadays, more and more college students are beginning to drive private cars on campus. Yet opinions of whether students should drive private cars on campus or not differ from person to person.

In some students’ eyes, private cars offer them great convenience and mobility. They no longer have to depend on public transportation and they can go wherever they want. However, others hold the idea that driving private cars on campus will become more and more crowded. For another, exhaust fumes of cars will do great harm to the environment of the campus. What’s more, the expense on running a car may place a burden on students.

Having considered both of the arguments, I have come to a conclusion that the disadvantages of driving cars on campus outweigh the advantages. The college should try to carry out some relative policies to put the use of private cars under firm control.

On saving the Nature

When we are surfing the Internet, we cannot fail to notice the massive news about some sudden disasters that cause a major loss to masses of people as well as the country. I cannot help asking: what on earth contributes to disasters?

Some insist that it is the laws of nature that are responsible, and thus, humans are at the end of their wit. However, more and more people are holding the belief that human activities play an important role in the process. People do not protect and preserve nature resources and exploit nature resources excessively.

As far as I am concerned, urgent measures should be taken before it is too late to save the mature for the sake of our survival. In the first place, humans should learn from the misfortunes which have happened. In the second place, humans should stop exploiting the nature destructively.

Knowledge and Diploma

It is widely believed that a high diploma will bring us a bright future. Many people equal high-level diploma to profound knowledge and exceptional ability. Companies are inclined to hire a job candidate according to his diploma. In one word, there does exist a social reality – the higher diploma one gets, the more

popular he becomes.

On the contrary, others claim that competence or knowledge means more than diploma. First and foremost, a diploma is only the acknowledgment of one’s educational experience rather than a guarantee of ability. Thus, the depth of one’s knowledge can’t be measured by the level of one’s diploma. Besides, many knowledgeable people don’t possess a high diploma.

From my standpoint, no one should ever equate a diploma to knowledge, because a diploma is nothing but a proof of a short-term study while your true ability and knowledge come from your hard work and lifelong devotion.

Craze for the Preservation of Traditional Chinese Medicine

Recently there has been a craze for the preservation of traditional Chinese Medicine. Various books concerning this topic come out and diverse lectures are presented on TV.

Why does this phenomenon come forth? Maybe the reasons can be listed as follows. To begin with, people today are facing huge pressure in their study, work and even daily life, which results in sub-health. Thus they turn to traditional Chinese medicine for help. Furthermore, our government and other

countries are working on publicizing the merits of it, hence it is accepted by more and more people.

From my point of view, we should hold a proper attitude toward it, in other words, we’d better take advantage of the essence in traditional Chinese medicine and avoid worshipping it blindly.

The Returning of Traditional Chinese Culture

Recently, the issue of Chinese traditional culture has been brought into public focus. For instance, it is reported that many primary schools have set up courses of sinology.

It is of vital significance for the public to acquire knowledge on Chinese traditional culture. For one thing, Chinese traditional culture is the essence of Chinese civilization with more than 5000 years. Thus, by learning it people can enlarge their scope of knowledge, enrich their experience and adapt themselves to the complicated society. For another, the rehabilitation of Chinese traditional culture can contribute to a harmonious society.

To summarize, it is highly recommended that all Chinese people –young and old – should inherit the merits of Chinese traditional culture. In the first place, we are well-advised to read classical books or attend lectures on this issue. In the second place,
