英語作文寫作模式

英語作文的寫作有什麼標準的格式嗎?以下便是小編整理的關於英語作文的協作模式,一起來看一下吧!

英語作文寫作模式

  【寫作模式】

  基本要求

英文書寫應符合書寫規範,英文字母要寫清楚、寫整齊、寫美觀,字母的大小和字母之間的距離要勻稱。書寫應做到字形秀麗漂亮,通篇勻稱和諧。

寫英文字母要掌握正確筆順。如小寫字母i ,應該先寫下面的部分,然後再打點。有的學生卻按寫漢字的習慣從上到下寫,寫快了,就會把點和下面的豎筆連在一起,顯得十分別扭。字形t應爲兩筆。不少人卻將兩筆合成一筆,看上去不像t,倒像l或是e,難以辨認。另外,把r寫成v,把q寫成把g,把k寫成h等等,都是中學生書寫中常見的毛病。

不少人在四線三格的練習紙上書寫尚有規矩,能按字母的佔格、高低和大小要求書寫,但在白紙或橫線紙上書寫,卻顯得十分幼稚拙劣。字母或跳上跳下,或一律寫成同一高度,占上中兩格的字母與佔中下兩格的字母完全沒有高低之別。這些現象都要防止。

另外,書寫時還要注意詞與詞之間要保持一定的距離,不能緊靠在一起。字母之間的連寫也應該按照習慣,不能隨意亂來。

在一篇字數有限的作文裏,我們還要注意儘量不把一個單詞拆開移行。萬一要移行,則必須以音節爲單位進行,如revolution這個詞,依照音節移行的原則可以按re-,revo-, revolu-這幾種方法移行。在移行時,我們還應特別注意以下幾點:

1. 單音節詞不能移行,即使是字母較多的單音節詞,如through等也不能例外。

2.縮略詞如Mr.、Dr.等不能和後面的名字拆開移行。 縮略的專用名詞如U.K.(the UnitedKingdom)、U.S.A(United States of America)等也不能拆開移行。

3.時間、量度及貨幣單位應視爲一個整體;不能分開移行。

如: 11:00 P.M. 應寫在一行內,不能將11:00和PM.分開移行;寫38℃時,不能將38和℃分開移行。

4.由“年、月、日”表示的日期。如果必須分開移行只能將“月、日”與“年”分開。如January 6,1980不能將January和6分開移行,但可以把January 6,和1980分成兩行。

5.含雙寫輔音字母的單詞,在移行時要將輔音字母拆開。如better可拆成bet-ter,necessary可拆成 neces-sary。

但如果雙寫輔音字母屬於詞根,後面又加了後綴,就不能將兩個輔音字母拆開。如drill加上-ing後構成了drilling,就不可以將它拆成dril-ling,而只能拆爲drilling。

書信題型寫作是應用文寫作中常見的功能性寫作形式,書信寫作的準備一是宏觀,就是要掌握它的格式,基本框架,就是先寫什麼,後寫什麼;二是微觀,具體到語言如何使用。

  【語法要點】

基英語學習的長期目標——交流所必需的能力之一。毋庸置疑,英語寫作是集基礎知識,基本能力和課外信息於一身的綜合體現,同時,又要兼顧到寫作者高超的寫作技巧。因而,沒有紮實的英語語法知識;

1)、taff 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 ex

本段從“rose”(起牀)寫起,然後是吃早餐(“not to miss breakfast”, “closing at nine o'clock”),然後是“close to noon”,一直寫到這一天結束(“By nine——”)。

B. 按位置遠近排列(spatial arrangement)。例如:

From the 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.

本段的寫法是由遠及近,從遠處(“from a distance”)寫起,然後“get closer”,再到(“ten feet away”),最後是“inside the pagoda”……當然,按位置遠近來寫不等於都是由遠及近。根據需要,也可以由近及遠,由表及裏等等。

C. 按邏輯關係排列(logical arrangement)

a. 按重要性順序排列(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.

這一段談的'是表達能力,它的重要性與職業,身份有關,從“not need much skill”或“of little importance”到“more important”,最後是“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.

這一段談的是a writer's carelessness,先給出一個general statement作爲主題句,然後通過5個 "perhaps"加以例證。

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.

本段的主題句是段首句,它僅提出一個問題:爲什麼兩隻貓會被搞混。然後對兩者進行比較,末句才下結論。

  2)形連

行文的邏輯性常常要靠適當的轉換詞語及其他手段來實現。請讀下面這一段文字並找出文中用以承上啓下的詞語:

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, during 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 graduate on schedule. Finally, on June 6, Walter achieved the first step toward realizing his goal.

本文中起承上啓下的詞語有兩種,一種是轉換詞語(transitional words or phrases),另一種是起轉換作用的其他連接手段(linking devices)。前者依次有:first, though, so, in particular, and, because, however, besides, as a result, both…and, consequently, and, finally.後者依次是:he, he, his, his, he, these, them, he, those, his, he, these, his. 本段中共有詞彙105個,所使用的轉換詞語及其他連接用語共26個詞,約佔該段總詞彙量的四分之一。由此可見,掌握好transitions不僅對行文的流(smoothness)有益,而且對於學生在半個小時內寫120個詞也是不無好處的。

一個段落裏如果沒有transitions也就很難有coherence了.我們看下面一個例子:

Speaking and writing are different in many ways. Speech depends on sounds. Writing uses written symbols. Speech developed about 500 000 en211ago. Written language is arecent 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句開頭出現一個起過渡作用的"it"之外,沒有使用其他的過渡詞語.這樣,文中出現許多重複的詞語,全段讀起來也顯得生硬而不自然。如果加上必要的過渡詞語來修飾的話,這一段就成了下面一個流暢連貫的段落:

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.

有損連貫

考生在寫作中經常出現下面幾種錯誤:

改變時態

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.

變單複數

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.

改變人稱

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.

因此寫作中,一定要注意時態,人稱以及數的變化是否正確,要注意保持一致。
