如何應(yīng)對大學(xué)英語四六級作文

字號:

作文在四六級考試中處于十分重要的地位,主要表現(xiàn)在以下幾個(gè)方面:   
    第一,在分值上,作文占了15分。   
    第二,四六級考試中,有一項(xiàng)規(guī)定是:凡是作文沒有及格的同學(xué),不論是其整個(gè)卷面的成績是否及格,都一律算作不及格,一般情況是按59分計(jì)總成績。   
    第三,作文是四六級試題中主觀題之一,在改卷中有很大的主動(dòng)性。   
    因此寫好作文對我們來說具有十分重要的意義。那如何寫好作文呢?   
    我想主要應(yīng)注意以下幾個(gè)方面:   
    一、審題的重要性:   
    四六級作文同考研的作文不同的是,考研的作文是給的英文提示,相對要求較高;而四六級作文一般是給的中文提示,但是在有些考題中的一部分是英文提示,這在無形中就增加了寫作的難度,可能給考生在中文和英文的轉(zhuǎn)換之間起了一些誤導(dǎo)作用。   
    作文的審題對我們來說具有一定方向性的作用。如果審題正確,那么就能讓自己有話可說,有東西可寫,而且能讓自己寫出一些有特色的東西來。   
    二、寫作中的段首句的重要性:   
    段首句就是全文的主題句,主題句對于一篇文章來說具有特殊的意義。因?yàn)槎问拙涫穷I(lǐng)銜全文的句子。它寫得好壞,直接影響到你下面的寫作,也影響到閱卷老師對你的第一印象。而且主題句設(shè)計(jì)的好壞,直接影響到你下面的文章的展開。   
    主題句在全文中具有指導(dǎo)作用,它的設(shè)計(jì)也是構(gòu)思全文的過程。   
    例如:Psychology plays an important role in our daily life. Some psychologist told me. All successall furniture come from the healthy psychology one has.In our daily life not only the physical problem we must facebut also the psychological problem. Our young handsome boys may have many psychological problenms. Such as why I am slower than the others or how important the height of your body is etc. Especially on love... Many students could easily fall in love with a pretty girl, but they must ask themselves am I right﹖Can I fit or comfort her﹖…………   
    在這一段話中,"Psychology plays an important role in our daily life." 在全文中就起了一個(gè)領(lǐng)銜全文的作用,在這句話的指導(dǎo)下,整篇文章就有了一個(gè)綱,然后通過這個(gè)綱進(jìn)一步展開。這樣,所有的人都會(huì)看到全文的主題句,一目了然。   
    三、寫作中小詞的重要性:   
    在寫作中,我們通常將一些連詞、副詞及一些介詞稱為小詞,這些小詞在全文中起到了連貫上下文的作用。在全文中如果沒有了這些詞或用錯(cuò)了這些詞就會(huì)使整個(gè)文章錯(cuò)誤不斷或讓人感覺全文斷斷續(xù)續(xù)。   
    例如:Many foreign tourists like China for many reasons. At first China is a country with a long history. The secondChina has many places to tour.The third  eating culture of China is very developed. The most important reason is that Chinese people are very friendly . because of these reasons the number of tourists to China is more and more.   
    在上面這篇文章中,主題句"Many foreign tourists like China for many reasons."寫得很好,然而在下面文章的展開中卻是很不好,首先是"At first"這一用法錯(cuò)誤,然后用"At first The second The third ……"沒有讓全文充分展開。   
    因此在文章中我們應(yīng)注意:   
    第一:句子多樣化   
    句子多樣化涉及到句子結(jié)構(gòu)和句子類型兩個(gè)方面的問題。   
    英文句子的上下連貫,段落的過渡銜接,主要靠"結(jié)構(gòu)詞"來表示。  
    (1)如分段敘述某一個(gè)問題時(shí),可用First Second Third... 來表示銜接?! ?BR>    (2)舉例說明時(shí)可用for example for instance  to illustrate 來表示?! ?BR>    (3)進(jìn)一步闡述時(shí)可用furthermore in addition similarly moreover來加以提示?! ?BR>    (4)強(qiáng)調(diào)某一點(diǎn)的重要性時(shí),可用surely truly undoubtedly clearly indeed as a matter of fact來加強(qiáng)句子的力度?! ?BR>    (5)作結(jié)論時(shí)可用therefore  in summary  consequently  in conclusion  in short來導(dǎo)出。        
    (6)分析因果時(shí)可用because due to so that as a result來表現(xiàn)主從句之間的邏輯關(guān)系?! ?BR>    (7)轉(zhuǎn)換思路時(shí),可用but however nevertheless otherwise等以示轉(zhuǎn)折,而on the one hand on the other hand on one side of the coin on the other side of the coin則可用來連接兩個(gè)相反的事實(shí)或觀點(diǎn)?! ?BR>    (8)It follows that... It can be inferred that... It suggests that...則將讀者引入作者的邏輯推理思路。   句子的類型   
    (1)除了比較熟悉的陳述句和疑問句外,還可用反問句來加強(qiáng)語氣;用感嘆句來表示譏諷;用類比來增加句子的份量。盡管句子多變,但必須遵循一個(gè)原則,即修辭服從文章觀點(diǎn)的表達(dá)?! ?BR>    (2)恰當(dāng)?shù)厥褂锰摂M語氣、獨(dú)立主格和非謂語動(dòng)詞。   
    第二:關(guān)于作文的復(fù)查問題   
    復(fù)查過程中盡量避免文章結(jié)構(gòu)上的大調(diào)整。復(fù)查的第一步主要集中在語法上。   
    (1)每個(gè)句子是否都有謂語動(dòng)詞?! ?BR>    (2)謂語時(shí)態(tài)與語態(tài)的表現(xiàn)形式是否正確?! ?BR>    (3)謂語與主語之間是否協(xié)調(diào)一致。  
    (4)代詞與其指代的事物是否一致。  
    (5)標(biāo)點(diǎn)符號是否用錯(cuò)。   
    復(fù)查第二步應(yīng)集中在句子的表達(dá)上   
    (1)句子所表達(dá)的意思是否準(zhǔn)確?! ?BR>    (2)上下文之間的邏輯銜接是否正確,有無相互矛盾之處。  
    (3)所舉例子能否支持觀點(diǎn)。   
    第三:常用表達(dá)(慣用句型)   
    我們可以從下面的一些例句得到一些啟示。
