Ⅰ 怎样才能提高我的英语写作水平

关于来如何提高英语写作,个人有自以下小小心得,供大家参考:
开始之前我想我们一定要明确一下,英语写作和学习任何其他学问一样,用心,行动,坚持。不经过自己思考的过程,很难学好
首先,英语的学习,听说读写是相互联系的,没有听说读的基础,不可能上来就能写好文章的。听是说的一个基础,读是听的来源,只有在大量的阅读的基础上,培养出英语的语感,积累词汇与好的句子结构,更多的是广泛的摄取才有可能累你自己的观点。
其次,在有了一定的基础上,一定要精度,记录好的短语句型,练习套用,比如平时可以在说话的时候,想到了就去用,加深记忆与造句能力。就像我们小时候学汉语一样,组词造句这些都是基础。等有了一定量的积累,可以尝试段落的写作。
再次,背诵绝对是一个有效的方法,所谓的背诵一定是张口就能上来,不能背一句想半天。经典的文章,自己喜欢的文章都可以。然后提取文章的框架,即文章的起承转折。只有从宏观的去看,才能去布局写作的骨架。
最后,我要说的是,生活里面处处用心,不光是只关注英文,一切的一切,只要多用心分析,感悟,这一切都是对写作提高的有利帮助,你自己是写作的最终源泉。

Ⅱ 怎样快速提高英语写作水平

写作指导
书面表达是综合性强、难度大的题目。但是,当我们深入研究后就不难发现,书面表达实质上就是组词成句、连句成篇的一项系统工程。只要我们抓好词、句、段这三个环节,加强缩写、改写、仿写等练习,由简到繁、由易到难,一环扣一环地进行训练,由模仿到活用,由操练到交际,就能使语言知识逐步转化成言语交际能力。
(一)选词
词是语言的最小组成单位,不同词性的词组合在一起构成句子。因此,要充分利用课文中出现的重点单词、词组、句型,培养学生学习和识记单词的能力。
1. 注意一词多义的应用。如time一词,在Times have changed中指“时代”;在six times the size of mine中指“倍数”;在in slow time中指“拍子”。切忌在写文章下笔时,一词滥用,似是而非。
2. 结合英语构词法,同义反义比较,名词的可数与不可数词义的区别,加强对英语词形变化的理解,扩充词汇量。
3. 巧用过渡词,增强文章逻辑性。为了使所写短文通顺,连贯得体,句子与句子之间过渡自然,提高所写短文的质量,适当加上一些表示时间顺序、递进、因果、条件、让步等关系的过渡词是很有必要的。常见的过渡词有:
(1)表时间顺序的过渡词:first,second,third,and then,finally,before,after a few days,at last,at that time,later,in the past,immediately,in the meanwhile等等。
(2)表空间顺序的过渡词:near(to),far(from),in the front of,beside,behind,beyond,above,below,to the right,to the left,on one side,on the other side of,outside等等。
(3)表并列的过渡词:also,and,then,too,as well(as)等等。
(4)表转折的过渡词:but,yet,however,in spite of,otherwise等等。
(5)表递进的过渡词:what' s more,besides,what' s worse,in addition,furthermore,moreover,again等等。
(6)表目的的过渡词:for this reason,for this purpose,so that;in order that,so as to,in order to等等。
(7)表因果的过渡词:because,since,so,as a result,therefore,thus,as等等。
(8)表解释说明的过渡词:for example,in fact,in this case,for,actually等等。
(9)表条件的过渡词:as long as,so long a5,on condition that,if,unless等等。
(10)表让步的过渡词:though,as,even if/though,who(what,when,where)ever等等。
(11)表总结的过渡词:in brief,as has been stated,in a word等等。
(12)过渡性插入语:I think,I' m afraid,you know,as we all know等等。
(二)造句
句子是表达一个较完整意思的最小单位,所以遣词造句的能力在英语写作中是非常重要的,是书面表达成败的关键。因此,加强造句训练就显得尤其重要。
1. 连词成句:这是最基本的一种训练形式。
如:
(1)father,for you,new,will buy,says,a bike可连成Father says,“I will buy a new bike for you. ”
(2)me,all right,write and tell,this will be,please,whether可连成Please write and tell me whether this will be all right.
2. 充分利用教材中特有的句型、句式、语法造句。
(1)句型、句式可使句子表达简洁、准确,提高文章档次。
It' s+ adj. +for sb. to do sth. “对某人来讲,做某事是……”。如:
It' s difficult for a child to do the job without help.
It' s no good/use…doing sth. 做某事没好处/用处
It' s no use giving him any more money.
It is(has been)+时间+since…自从……好长时间了
It is(has been)5 years since he joined the army.
It' s not long before…不久……
It will not be long before be comes back.
It is/was…who/that…强调句型
It was yesterday that we visited the factory.
It seems that…好像……
It seems that she is happy. /She seems happy.
I don't think/believe/expect(that)…我认为……不
I don't think I know you.
Will you please…?请……好吗?
Will you please help me?
Would you like sth. /to do sth. ?做……好吗?
Would you like to have a cup of tea?
(2)用主从复合句、分词作状语、with复合结构等用法,可使语言描绘更加生动,增强文章的情感性和感召力。如:
What is more,it will become necessary to build gates and walls,which will do harm to the appearance of a city. (NMET 2002书面表达参考答案片段)
I don' t know about others,but l used to work even at weekends,doing endless homework and at tending Classes as well. (NMET 2001书面表达参考答案片段)
It' s a small flat of 25 square meters,with a bedroom,a bathroom and a kitchen. (NMET 2003书面表达参考答案片段)
How glad we were to see the crops and vegetables growing well. (NMET 1998书面表达参考答案片段)
(3)用句型替换练习增强语言的灵活性,拓宽表达空间。如:
这孩子太小,还不到上学的年龄。
The boy is too young to go to school.
The boy is so young that he can't go to school.
The boy is not old enough to go to school.
我花了5元钱买这本书。
I spent five yuan on the book.
I spent five yuan(in)buying the book.
I paid five yuan for the book.
I bought the book for five yuan.
The book cost me five yuan.

Ⅲ 怎样提升自己英语写作水平

怎样提升自己英语写作水平:

  1. 加强基础知识的记忆学习。

    一般我们最开始学习英内语的时候,就容开始学习英语单词,学习语法,在学习这些基础的时候一定要打牢,并且要能够灵活的应用。在日常生活中,要积累大量的词汇量作用是非常大的,这会对自己的英语写作打下坚实的基础。在写文章的时候能够灵活的应用是最好的。

  2. 养成阅读的好习惯。

    通过阅读,可以不断扩大和积累词汇、素材和增强语感、活跃思维、增长智力,从而提高英语写作能力。在阅读训练中,要经常背诵文词优美的语句和段落,做好知识储备,在写作时,才会信手粘来,会让自己的文章大放光彩,给自己的文章增添不一样的色彩。

  3. 多加练习写作

    可以用雅思或者托福写作的话题来练习,特别是雅思话题,它比较社会化,会涉及到"Environment","Ecation"以及"Culture"等跟生活息息相关的主题,非常适合用来练笔。养成每周写上一两篇文章的习惯,写完后一定要尝试着自己去修改,修改时重点关注句子间的逻辑性,用词的准确性,得体性以及丰富度。写完了以后,放个一两天在拿起来修改一下,经过反复的练习,就会,发现自己的文章会有问题,经过多次的修改,就会有明显的进步。

Ⅳ 有哪些高效提升英语写作水平的方法

写好文章要注意好的方法:
1、比喻是最简便的修辞,形象、生动和版大众化是它的特点;
2、直接使权用喻体能使语句婆娑生姿,产生趣味;
3、在文章中使用与主题或场景相关的喻体,能收到异趣;
4、把A事件比作B事件,这样的比喻方式比较困难,但却有奇趣的艺术效果;
5、运用多个比喻,使其成排出现,这样的语句具有军营气势,如模特方阵正款款而来;
6、比喻应该为人物和主题服务,贬褒之喻都可看出作者的写作取向;
7、运用通感手法,接通五官,让香气变成正方形,叫声音变成花瓣雨,这样的写作手法奇妙无穷;
8、拟人之法是文章的生动之源,你一定要掌握和擅长;
9、夸张使语句产生奇效,夸张亦产生幽默;
10、排比句常用来抒情,对称句常用来描写,相同的句式和大致相似的字数,在文中出现也使形式美观;
11、反复是一种不常用的修辞方法,但你应该了解和懂得;
12、对比的手法很有趣,高山平原,请你去鉴别和感悟。

Ⅳ 如何提高我的英语写作能力

首先,我们要增加自己的词汇量,这样能够帮助我们在写作的时候更加快速的写出来正确的意思,其次,我们要掌握正确的语法,完善我们的英语知识结构

Ⅵ 如何提高英语写作能力

谈谈如何提高英语写作能力

关键词:英语写作能力 原则 方法
引言:英语写作能力是英语听、说、读、写四种基本能力之一,英语写作能有效地促进语言知识的内化。Swain(1985)提出“可理解输出”假设,认为包括写在内的语言产生性运用有助于学习者检验目的语句法结构和词语的使用,促进语言运用的自动化,有效地达到了语言习得的目的。通过写作,英语知识不断得到巩固并内在化,有利于英语技能的全面发展。但是,英语写作又是广大英语学习者最感头痛的问题之一,且容易被教师忽视,笔者以为如何提高英语写作能力值得我们认真研究。本文就此谈谈初浅的看法。
一、提高英语写作能力的原则
(一)渐进性原则。要坚持“句—段—篇”的训练程序,由易到难,循序渐进。在英语写作的初始阶段,要始终注意培养学生良好的写作习惯,狠抓基本功训练。在学生掌握了基本句型并能写出简单句子后,再要求学生根据一些体例写出小段的文章。在段落写作中要引导学生分析段落的结构、段落的中心句、句与句之间的逻辑关系、写作手法等,这样有利于下一步一篇文章的写作。在文章写作中要教会学生如何构思文章、如何运用正确的写作技巧等。
(二)多样性原则。要坚持训练形式的多样化及写作文体的多样性。从形式上而言,可以用回答提问的口头作文,也可以用续写故事;可以改写课文,也可以仿写课文;可以写提纲训练谋篇布局,也可以写拓展段训练发散思维……。从文体上而言,可以写说明文、议论文、记叙文,也可以写书信、便条、通知等实用文体。
(三)结合性原则。要坚持听说读训练和写训练相结合。根据语言习得理论,学习者在学习时常先通过听和读吸取语言知识,从而了解别人的思想,再通过说和写来表达自己的思想,让别人了解自己。大量的听说训练能促进读写能力的提高。因此,写与听说读紧密结合,进行多元化的能力训练,可使学生的各项能力互相影响、互相渗透、互相促进。
(四)控制性原则。要坚持写作前的指导,控制学生的汉语语言思维,发展英语语言思维。语言学习在很大程度上主要是模仿,而非随心所欲地自由表达。教师要加强写作前的指导,可给出范文让学生模仿,以熟悉其语篇结构。同时要控制其汉语语言思维,尽可能让学生习惯英语语言思维,以便于学生学习和掌握地道、正确的英语。
(五)持久性原则。要坚持长期、正确的写作训练。英语写作能力的提高并非一朝一夕之事,而是一个长期的、艰巨的、渐进的过程。这就要求教师、学生都要有充分的思想准备,要有坚韧不拔的意志和必胜的信心。
二、提高英语写作能力的方法。
(一)通过积累词汇量,提高英语写作能力。犹如土木砖石是建筑的材料一样,词汇是说话写作的必需材料,也是制约写作能力提高的瓶颈。可以想象,如果要写一个句子,10个单词有8个单词拼写错误或拼写不出,有2
个单词用法不当,又怎么能清楚地表达自己的思想呢?因此,在平时的教学中要强调学生记忆单词,记住单词的拼读、用法、意思等。记忆单词的方法有很多,各人有各人的记忆方法和习惯,可因人而异。教师可通过要求学生朗读单词、听写单词、默写单词、遣词造句、词汇竞赛等多种方法促进学生记单词。记忆单词是一个长期的反复的过程,要长期地坚持下去,才能不断积累大量的词汇,为英语写作打下坚实的基础。
(二)通过扩大阅读量,提高英语写作能力。古人云“熟读唐诗三百首,不会作诗也会吟”,这是汉语的一种学习方法,同样可借鉴于英语写作。多阅读是学生增加接触英语语言材料、接受信息、活跃思维、增长智力的一种途径,同时也是培养学生英语思维能力、提高理解力、增强语感、巩固和扩大词汇量的一种好方法,有利于促进英语写作能力的提高。在阅读训练中,教师要注意以下问题:一是指导阅读方法,分析文章结构、中心思想、段落中心句、写作方法等,帮助学生掌握各类文章的结构及写作方法。二要精读与泛读相结合,通过推敲优秀的文章来学会写作方法和选词用词;通过大量的泛读来吸取信息量,扩大词汇量。三要扩大阅读量。提供阅读的材料涉及面要广,才能不断扩大学生的知识面,使学生适应各种题材的写作。
(三)通过提高听说能力,提高英语写作能力。英语听说读写四种能力是相互影响、相互促进的,提高听说能力必定会促进写作能力的提高。要提高听说能力关键在于创设一个良好的英语环境。教师要尽可能地用英语授课,多开展专门的听说训练,同时开展丰富多彩的课外英语活动,让学生沉浸在英语海洋中去领略、去体会、去使用英语,久而久之,学生自然能使用正确的、地道的英语进行交谈与写作。
(四)通过重视写作过程,提高英语写作能力。长期以来,英语写作成果教学法(THE PRODUCT
APPROACH)在我国居于主导地位,教师根据写作的终成品来判断写作的成败,重视写作的技术性细节(如格式、拼写、语法等),忽视写作过程的指导。根据D.Rumechart和J.McClelland提出的连通论(Connectionism)理论,写作包括写前阶段、具体写作、文章修改三个基本过程,这三个过程并非是线性排列,而是循环往复,穿插进行的。教师只有重视加强对写作三个过程的指导,才能更好地提高英语写作能力。在写作前阶段,教师重在指导学生如何挖掘题材,训练发散性思维,以及如何选择材料、谋篇布局等。在具体写作中,教师重在指导学生如何紧扣主题、运用正确的写作方法等。在文章修改中,教师重在指导学生如何修改语法及用词的错误。
(五)通过多写英语摘要,提高英语写作能力。英语摘要是把一篇文章的要点摘录出来,用自己的语言使之独立成一篇短文,这不是简单的摘录,而是忠于原文意思的再创作。写英语摘要有利于学生了解原文的文化背景、理解原文的中心意思、弄清原文的篇章结构,从而提高学生的逻辑思维能力和谋篇布局能力。
(六)通过发展英语语言思维能力,提高英语写作能力。英语写作是运用已掌握的内在化语言知识和表达方法,通过思维进行外在化输出的创作,因此英语语言思维能力在英语写作中作用非凡。对于我国学生而言,在英语写作中易受汉语语言思维的影响,难以直接用英语语言进行思维,不利于英语写作能力的提高,因此发展其英语语言思维能力尤为重要。教师要注意对学生的英语语言思维进行多方位、多角度的训练:要采取各种方法训练学生英语语言思维的广阔性、深刻性、发散性和创造性;要教会学生用英语思考问题、回答问题;要从训练形象思维开始,逐步过渡到抽象思维训练;在课文讲解中要尽可能不用汉语翻译而用英语解释,消除汉语思维的影响;要努力创设良好的英语环境,在英语交际中发展英语思维能力。

写好英语段落的三个标准

首先,一个段落必须有一个中心即主题思想,该中心由主题句特别是其中的题旨来表达。整个段落必须紧扣这个主题(stick or hold to the topic),这就是段落的统一性(unity)。其次,一个段落必须有若干推展句,使主题思想得到充分展开,从而给读者一个完整的感觉,这就是完整性(completeness or adequateness)。再者,一个段落不是杂乱无章的,而是有机的组合,句子的排列顺序必须合乎逻辑,从一个句子到另一个句子的过渡必须流畅(smooth),这就是连贯性(coherence)。下面我们就对这三个标准分别加以说明。
1、统一性
一个段落内的各个句子必须从属于一个中心,任何游离于中心思想之外的句子都是不可取的。请看下例:
Joe and I decided to take the long trip we'd always wanted across the country. We were like young kids buying our camper and stocking it with all the necessities of life. Bella bakes the best rhubarb pie. We started out in early spring from Minneapolis and headed west across the northern part of the country. We both enjoyed those people we met at the trailer park. Joe received a watch at his retirement dinner. To our surprise, we found that we liked the warm southern regions very much, and so we decided to stay here in New Mexico.
本段的主题句是段首句,controlling idea(中心思想)是take the long trip across the country.文中出现两个irrelevant sentences,一个是Bella bakes the best rhubarb pie,这一段是讲的是Joe and I ,中间出现一个Bella是不合适的。还有,Joe received a watch at his retirement dinner这一句更是与主题句不相关。考生在四级统考的作文卷上常常因为造出irrelevant sentences(不相关语句)而丢分,值得引起注意。再看一个例子:
My name is Roseanna, and I like to keep physically fit. I used to weigh two hundred pounds, but I joined the YMCA for an exercise class and diet program. In one year I lost eighty pounds. I feel much better and never want to have that much weight on my five-feet frame again. I bought two new suitcases last week. Everyday I practice jogging three miles, swimming fifteen laps, lifting twenty-pound weights and playing tennis for one hour. My mother was a premature baby.
本段的controlling idea 是like to deep physically fit,但段中有两个irrelevant sentences,一个是I bought two new suitcases last week,另一个是My mother was a premature baby.
从上面两个例子可以看出,native speakers同样会造出来irrelevant sentences.卷面上如果这种句子多了,造成偏题或离题,那问题就更严重了。
2、完整性
正象我们前面说得那样,一个段落的主题思想靠推展句来实现,如果只有主题句而没有推展句来进一步交待和充实,就不能构成一个完整的段落。同样,虽然有推展句,但主题思想没有得到相对圆满的交待,给读者一种意犹未尽的感觉。这样的段落也不能完成其交际功能。例如:
Physical work can be a useful form of therapy for a mind in turmoil. Work concentrates your thoughts on a concrete task. Besides, it is more useful to work —— you proce something rather than more anxiety or depression.
本段的主题句是段首句。本段的两个推展句均不能回答主题句中提出的问题。什么是“a mind in turmoil”(心境不平静)Physical work又如何能改变这种情况?为什么它能起therapy的作用?读者得不到明确的答案。由于四级统考的作文部分只要求写一篇100~120个词的三段式短文,每一段只有大约40个词左右,因此,要达到完整就必须尽可能地简明。例如:
It is not always true that a good picture is worth a thousand words. Often writing is much clearer than a picture. It is sometimes difficult to figure out what a picture means, but a careful writer can almost always explain it.
段首句所表达的主题思想是一种看法,必须有具体事例加以验证。上述两个推展句只是在文字上对主题作些解释,整个段落内容空洞,简而不明。如果用一两个具体的例子的话,就可以把主题解释清楚了。比如下段:
It is not always true that a picture is worth a thousand words. Sometimes, pictures are pretty useless things. If you can't swim and fall in the river and start gulping water, will you be better off to hold up a picture of yourself drowning, or start screaming “Help”?
3、连贯性(coherence)
连贯性包括意连和形连两个方面,前者指的是内在的逻辑性,后者指的是使用转换词语。当然这两者常常是不可分割的。只有形连而没有意连,句子之间就没有内在的有机的联系;反之,只有意连而没有形连,有时行文就不够流畅。
1)、意连
段落中句子的排列应遵循一定的次序,不能想到什么就写什么。如果在下笔之前没有构思,边写边想,写写停停,那就写不出一气呵成的好文章来。下面介绍几种常见的排列方式。
A.按时间先后排列(chronological arrangement)
We had a number of close calls that day. When we rose, it was obviously late and we had to hurry so as not to miss breakfast; we knew the dining room staff was strict about closing at nine o'clock. Then, when we had been driving in the desert for nearly two hours —— it must have been close to noon —— the heat nearly hid us in; the radiator boiled over and we had to use most of our drinking water to cool it down. By the time we reached the mountain, it was our o'clock and we were exhausted. Here, judgement ran out of us and we started the tough climb to the summit, not realizing that darkness came suddenly in the desert. Sure enough, by six we were struggling and Andrew very nearly went down a steep cliff, dragging Mohammed and me along with him. By nine, when the wind howled across the flat ledge of the summit, we knew as we shivered together for warmth that it had not been our lucky day.
本段从“rose”(起床)写起,然后是吃早餐(“not to miss breakfast”, “closing at nine o'clock”),然后是“close to noon”,一直写到这一天结束(“By nine——”)。
B. 按位置远近排列(spatial arrangement)。例如:
From a distance, it looked like a skinny tube, but as we got closer, we could see it flesh out before our eyes. It was tubular, all right, but fatter than we could see from far away. Furthermore, we were also astonished to notice that the building was really in two parts: a pagoda sitting on top of a tubular one-story structure. Standing ten feet away, we could marvel at how much of the pagoda was made up of glass windows. Almost everything under the wonderful Chinese roof was made of glass, unlike the tube that it was sitting on, which only had four. Inside, the tube was gloomy, because of the lack of light. Then a steep, narrow staircase took us up inside the pagoda and the light changed dramatically. All those windows let in a flood of sunshine and we could see out for miles across the flat land.
本段的写法是由远及近,从远处(“from a distance”)写起,然后“get closer”,再到(“ten feet away”),最后是“inside the pagoda”……当然,按位置远近来写不等于都是由远及近。根据需要,也可以由近及远,由表及里等等。
C. 按逻辑关系排列(logical arrangement)
a. 按重要性顺序排列(arrangement in order of importance)
If you work as a soda jerker, you will, of course, not need much skill in expressing yourself to be effective. If you work on a machine, your ability to express yourself will be of little importance. But as soon as you move one step up from the bottom, your effectiveness depends on your ability to reach others through the spoken or the written word. And the further away your job is from manual work, the larger the organization of which you are an employee, the more important it will be that you know how to convey your thoughts in writing or speaking. In the very large business organization, whether it is the government, the large corporation, or the Army, this ability to express oneself is perhaps the most important of all the skills a man can possess.
这一段谈的是表达能力,它的重要性与职业,身份有关,从“not need much skill”或“of little importance”到“more important”,最后是“most important”。
b.由一般到特殊排列(general-to-specific arrangement)
If a reader is lost, it is generally because the writer has not been careful enough to keep him on the path. This carelessness can take any number of forms. Perhaps a sentence is so excessively cluttered that the reader, hacking his way through the verbiage, simply doesn't know what it means. Perhaps a sentence has been so shoddily constructed that the reader could read it in any of several ways. Perhaps the writer has switched tenses, or has switched pronouns in mid-sentence, so the reader loses track of when the action took place or who is talking. Perhaps sentence B is not logical sequel to sentence A —— the writer, in whose head the connection is clear, has not bothered to provide the missing link. Perhaps the writer has used an important word incorrectly by not taking the trouble to look it up. He may think that “sanguine” and “sanguinary” mean the same thing, but the difference is a bloody big one. The reader can only infer what the writer is trying to imply.
这一段谈的是a writer's carelessness,先给出一个general statement作为主题句,然后通过5个 ”perhaps”加以例证。
c. 由特殊到一般排列(specific-to-general arrangement)
I do not understand why people confuse my Siamese cat, Prissy, with the one I had several years ago, Henry. The two cats are only alike in breed. Prissy, a quiet, feminine feline, loves me dearly but not possessively. She likes to keep her distance from people, exert her independence and is never so rude as to beg, lick, or sniff unceremoniously. Her usual posture is sitting upright, eyes closed, perfectly still. Prissy is a very proper cat. Henry, on the other hand, loved me dearly but possessively. He was my shadow from morning till night. He expected me to constantly entertain him. Henry never cared who saw him do anything, whether it was decorous or not, and he usually offended my friends in some way. The cat made himself quite comfortable, on the top of the television, across stranger's feet or laps, in beds, drawers, sacks, closets, or nooks. The difference between them is imperceptible to strangers.
本段的主题句是段首句,它仅提出一个问题:为什么两只猫会被搞混。然后对两者进行比较,末句才下结论。
2)、形连
行文的逻辑性常常要靠适当的转换词语及其他手段来实现。请读下面这一段文字并找出文中用以承上启下的词语:
Walter's goal in life was to become a successful surgeon. First, though, he had to get through high school, so he concentrated all his efforts on his studies —— in particular, biology, chemistry, and math. Because he worked constantly on these subjects, Walter became proficient in them; however, Walter forgot that he needed to master other subjects besides those he had chosen. As a result, ring his junior year of high school, Walter failed both English and Latin. Consequently, he had to repeat these subjects and he was almost unable to graate on schele. Finally, on June 6, Walter achieved the first step toward realizing his goal.
本文中起承上启下的词语有两种,一种是转换词语(transitional words or phrases),另一种是起转换作用的其他连接手段(linking devices)。前者依次有:first, though, so, in particular, and, because, however, besides, as a result, both…and, consequently, and, finally.后者依次是:he, he, his, his, he, these, them, he, those, his, he, these, his. 本段中共有词汇105个,所使用的转换词语及其他连接用语共26个词,约占该段总词汇量的四分之一。由此可见,掌握好transitions不仅对行文的流(smoothness)有益,而且对于学生在半个小时内写足四级短文所要求的120个词也是不无好处的。
一个段落里如果没有transitions也就很难有coherence了。我们看下面一个例子:Speaking and writing are different in many ways. Speech depends on sounds. Writing uses written symbols. Speech developed about 500 000 years ago. Written language is a recent development. It was invented only about six thousand years ago. Speech is usually informal. The word choice of writing is often relatively formal. Pronunciation and accent often tell where the speaker is from. Pronunciation and accent are ignored in writing. A standard diction and spelling system prevails in the written language of most countries. Speech relies on gesture, loudness, and rise and fall of the voice. Writing lacks gesture, loudness and the rise and fall of the voice. Careful speakers and writers are aware of the differences.
本段中除了第6句开头出现一个起过渡作用的”it”之外,没有使用其他的过渡词语。这样,文中出现许多重复的词语,全段读起来也显得生硬而不自然。如果加上必要的过渡词语来修饰的话,这一段就成了下面一个流畅连贯的段落:
Speaking and writing are different in many ways. Speech depends on sounds; writing, on the other hand, uses written symbols. Speech was developed about 500 000 years ago, but written language is a recent development, invented only about six thousand years ago. Speech is usually informal, while the word choice of writing, by contrast, is often relatively formal. Although pronunciation and accent often tell where the speaker is from, they are ignored in wiring because a standard diction and spelling system prevails in most countries. Speech relies on gesture, loudness, and the rise and fall of the voice, but writing lacks these features. Careful speakers and writers are aware of the differences.
4、有损连贯性的几种情况:
考生在写作中经常出现下面几种错误:
1、不必要的改变时态,比如:
In the movie, Robert Redford was a spy. He goes to his office where he found everybody dead. Other spies wanted to kill him, so he takes refuge with Julie Christie. At her house, he had waited for the heat to die down, but they come after him anyway.
2、不必要的改变单复数,比如:
Everybody looks for satisfaction in his life. They want to be happy. But if he seeks only pleasure in the short run, the person will soon run out of pleasure and life will catch up to him. They need to pursue the deeper pleasure of satisfaction in work and in relationships.
3、不必要的改变人称,比如:
Now more than ever, parents need to be in touch with their children's activities because modern life has the tendency to cause cleavages in the family. You need to arrange family like it so that family members will do things together and know one another. You need to give up isolated pleasures of your own and realize that parents have a set of obligations to sponsor togetherness and therefore sponsor knowledge.
因此写作中,一定要注意时态,人称以及数的变化是否正确,要注意保持一致。

Ⅶ 怎样快速提高自己的英语写作水平

1.从范文找标杆
要写出一篇好的英语作文,首先就要确定目标,树立标杆,明确什么样的文章才是好文章,而这个标杆就是真题范文。分析真题的范文,会发现高分范文有一些共同的特点:
(1)三段式永远不会过时。
(2)观点不一定十分新颖,但都很清晰、有理有据。
(3)如果题目中提供了两个观点,高分作文一定是选择其一,并在文章一开始就表明自己的立场,而不是"两个观点都有道理""各打五十大板"。
(4)连词不少,尤其是在段首和转折、强调、分点说明时。
(5)没有通篇用长句,都是长短句相结合,有节奏感。
(6)用词重复率很低,前后用不同的单词表达同一个意思。
2.要“输出”,先“输入”
写作是英语能力的"输出"过程,要“输出”,先得有“输入”的积累。抓住一份真题的作文,从学习它的范文开始,依葫芦画瓢,把别人写的好的句子、短语,甚至开头结尾的方式、承上启下的句子、连词都标注下来,然后熟读、默写,再把范文合起来,自己完整地写一篇,不求和范文完全相同,也不怕和范文雷同。多积累几篇后,肚子里有点“墨水”了,以后再写别的题目也慢慢能找到感觉,写出自己的东西了。
3.背单词不如多背句子
写作背诵单词虽然说是必须的,但是也不要一味的求知道很多“高级”的生僻词,只要够用就可以,更重要的是掌握好一些实用的短语和句型,虽然很多作文辅导书上有分类整理的好句子,但更唾手可得的资源是真题的阅读文章和真题范文,在学习真题的时候可以从这两个来源中积累好句子,并把它们记在一个小笔记本,随身携带利用碎片化的时间读一读。
4.勤于写作
进行写作练习是不可缺少的,如果光大谈写作,而从不去动笔写,是写不出好作文的,所谓的熟能生巧就是说的这一点。可以让学生采用写日记的方法来提高自己的表达能力,也可以就不同的题材,自拟题目来写或者就某篇课文来扩写、缩写、改写等,这些都可以用来练练手笔。

Ⅷ 如何提高英语写作水平

英语作文写作要点:
1. 多记词组,同义词,反义词。这可以使读者感到用词地道,合乎习惯回又少重复。这好比肉,骨答骼肌、横纹肌、平滑肌什么都有,不乏味单调。
2. 学习英语表达的习惯句型,应该熟记。这好比骨架,如果人的骨架如果没有长正,人就站不直。
3. 学习英语的连接词(例如表示因果、转折、递进、例举等)。这好比关节,如果关节有问题,骨架就连接不自然。
4, 学习英语作文的特点是: 中心思想通常在每段落的第一句(叫做主题句, topic sentence),主题句后再展开论述或说明。这好比衣领,一定好抓住。
5. 在最后要画龙点睛,总结您自己的观点,即您的结论句一定要点出您全文的主题。这好比头, 没有"头"的作文别人辨认不出"面孔"来哟。
6. 按照上述的分析去解毒范文, 看看别人是不是这样写的。背下这些范文或出彩的句子、词组等,灵活用到您的作文中就会进步。如果读范文有困难,最好借有英汉对照和注解的范文学习。
写作时,应该仔细省题, 用所学的知识表达出您想表达的意思。紧扣主题、中心思想明确、句子连贯、流畅、合乎逻辑、无语法和词法错误。

祝您进步。

Ⅸ 如何提高英语作文水平

英语学习无外乎就是提升英语的听说读写译五种能力,而最难提升且中高考英语考试当中最容易扣分的就是英语作文题型,这是学生学习和老师教学最头疼的交集问题,下面我来和大家分享一下多年积累的最实用的英语写作方法吧!

我们拿到一个作文题,第一步就是谋篇布局。先要审清题意,审什么?审作文要求,写作要点、写作时态以及写作难点。我们要通读作文要求两遍或两遍以上,熟知写作要点,再根据自己的写作需要来重新组合要点。

第三步是起草。我们完全可以根据所列提纲来进行分段造句,开头段造两三句,主体段造四五句,结尾段造两三句,中间穿插一些过渡性的词语,整篇小文章就形成了,而且文章层次和详略都兼顾到了。

注意: 写作过程中我们要遵循避生就熟的原则。所谓避生就熟就是遇到写作难点我们要回避陌生的表达,使用自己能驾驭的句型,通俗一点说就是绕着写,切勿冒险去生搬硬造。

第四步就是修改。我们通常要在单词拼写、名词单复数、动词时态及主谓一致上寻找语法错误,并作出相应的修改。

Ⅹ 提高英语写作能力有什么好的方法

:累积实用的佳句,整理制作成卡片
提高英语会话能力,同时又增加词汇量的有效方法之一是将您从书本上,报刊杂志上看到的精彩文句抄录下来,制成卡片.视需要可以分成政治,经济,文学,艺术,体育等类.平时随身带着几张,空闲时就拿出来背背.在会话和写作时往往能真的派上用场.这是增加词汇的有效方法,更是练习英语表达能力的良方.收录的句子不一定要长,有时短句更能言简意赅.
2:把当天发生的事情,用英语写成日记
既然说是日记(diary),最好能够每天写.英文能否写的通顺还是次要的问题,能够持续的每天用英文记日记(keep a diary in English)才是最重要的.
日记主要是给自己看的,因此体裁可以较为自由.例如(I
got)up at six.((我)早上六点钟起床.)(I)went to the zoo this
afternoon.((我)今天下午去了动物园.)(I was)bitten by a dog around
noon.(大约中午时候(我)被一条狗咬了.)这些句子中括号内的单词都是在记日记时可以省略的.若因时间关系或其他原因无法写出句子或段落,即使只列出一些单词也总比完全不写的好.下面是一篇写的比较完整的日记:
It
was already eight o\'clock,and I was still on the bus to school.I was
sure to get into trouble with the teacher.I suddenly remembered she was
going to test us.I didn\'t study at all since I slept too well last
night.Now what should I do?
When I walked into the classroom,I
looked out of the window.The bees were busy making honey from
flowers.The birds also were busy making nets.The sun was shining
brightly.As I saw this,a thought struck me:I wished to leave the
school
at once,to throw my books aside,and to hide in the beautiful world of
nature.But I realized I could not do so.If even the bees and birds were
so busy at work,then I,a human being,should be ashamed of being idle.I
therefore changed my mind and faced the music.
(已经八点钟了,但我还坐在开往学校的汽车上.我知道一定会挨老师批评.突然我想了起来,她今天要测验我们.昨天晚上我睡的很香,根本就没有复习.那现在该怎么办呢?
的我走进教室后,向窗外望去.蜜蜂正在花丛间忙着采蜜,小鸟们也在忙着筑巢,阳光一片明媚.看到这一切,我突然有个念头.我但愿能马上逃离教室,把书本扔到一边,躲藏到美丽的大自然中.但我意识到,我不能这样做.甚至连小鸟和蜜蜂都在忙着工作,我,作为一个人,应该为无所事事而感到羞耻.因此,我改变了注意,准备接受批评.)
3:用英文写阅读摘要
在当今这种国际化的社会里,用英文写报告,札记,备忘录的机会越来越多,尤其是从事国际贸易或其他国际事务的人士更需要培养这种能力.
这种英文写作能力的培养,要靠平时一点一滴努力的积累.我们可以把在工作和休闲时阅读到的外国文献,小说故事,或英文报刊杂志报道,评论的内容作成摘要.尽可能不要照抄原文,而是要用自己的英文把已理解的内容简要的整理出来,然后念给家长,老师,朋友们听.这样做可以发现摘要的内容是否正确,自己的发音是否清晰,是一种可以立即见效的练习方式,对于思绪的整理和文字的锻炼帮助很大.
4:把生活体验写成英文作文,或做口头发表
每星期一至二次,每次用一两个小时的时间将一星期来生活或工作上的心得和感想写成三五百字的英文作文.斟酌修改之后,再背诵,然后在适当的时候象做演讲一样复诵给同学,同事或朋友听.
说给别人听的目的一方面是训练自己的胆量,另一方面是试试自己的表达能力,看能否让别人充分了解自己的意思.为了要说出来,自然要留意发音,语调,节奏等各方面的问题.
您也可以把积极学习英语的同学,同事或朋友组织起来轮流主讲,轮流做听众.讲完之后,彼此用英语进行讨论.有个主题做中心可以使会话练习的内容具体而充实,远胜于空洞不着边际的自由讨论(free
talk).每周坚持做这样的练习,一年之后在说,写方面一定会进步神速.
5:随时用英文思考,用英文记录
英文程度的好坏,是看您能否在日常生活或工作中随心所欲的运用英文听,说,读,写的四种技能.而这四种技能的总根源便是用英文思考的能力.
作到用英文思考不是一蹴可及的事.最重要的养成用英语思考的习惯.我们必须从生活中的点点滴滴作起.比如我们在走路时,或排队买票时把所看到的事物,所听到的谈话或想到的生活琐事在脑海中用英文表达出来.即使不是完整的句子,用单词或短语也可以.环境许可的话,把它们记入笔记本里.
