1、江西省专升本统考英语,写作专题,一、写作考试要求,英语写作是江西省专升本英语统一考试的重要组成部分之一。本部分占总分的10%,考试时间25分钟。而整个专升本英语统一考试的内容是以教育部颁发的高职高专教育英语课程教学基本要求为基本根据的。该基本要求关于考试写作能力的基本要求是:要求考生在规定的时间内写出80100词的短文,写作内容为日常生活题材或简单的业务交际的短文。试卷上可能给出题目,或规定情景,或要求写信函、个人简历、启事、通知等应用文。短文要求格式基本正确,能基本表达思想,意思连贯,无重大语法错误。本部分的测试目的是检查学生的英语书面表达能力。由此可见,应用文写作(书信)是专升本考试常考题
2、型。,二、应试技巧与策略,一般来说,一篇好的应用文应包括以下两大因素:1)技术上的因素:语言自然流畅,语法错误较少,正确使用所学的词、词组和句型;语法及标点使用正确,句子结构完整;格式正确,符合常见的应用文格式;有效地采用了多种衔接的手法,意思连贯,层次清晰。2)非技术上的因素:在考试时,还必须把握“非技术上的因素”,即作文书写上应当清晰整洁,美观大方。动笔前,列个提纲,打个腹稿,做好心中有数,切忌字迹潦草,乱涂乱画。因为阅卷在夏天,酷暑难耐,心情易燥,作文书写的第一影响起了非常重要的作用。,三、历年真题题型分析,2009年:询价信(an letter of enquiry)2008年:通告、
