2、路是强调英语的实用性,设立一个情景让你用所学的英语去处理一件假定的事情。2001年6月的书信作文,写信给同学安排度假事宜 2002年1月的书信作文,写信给学校校长讨论食堂情况 2003年6月考察的是假设你见到车祸,然后进行描述,2003年12月的书信作文,写信给朋友选专业;2004年6月假设你是一位导游,给外国游客介绍行程和介绍景点;2005年1月假设你要去竞选学生会主席;2005年6月假设你要描写一位心中的好老师。,第二种思路是:把各种经典的段落进行排列和组合。命题主要是把十种经典的段落进行自由组合,形成新的题目。,十大经典段落 1第一段:Introduction,现象现状描述段(03.1/
3、98.1/.)图表描述段(02.6/91.6)对立观点陈述段,2第二段:Body 利弊说明段 意义阐释段(概念,图表)原因列举段 举例论证段 3第三段:Conclusion 归纳结论段 预测趋势段 建议措施段,比如2005年12月24日的考题:Should the University Campus Be Open to Tourists?1名校校园正成为旅游新热点 2校园是否应对游客开放,人们看法不同 3我认为 这就是现象现状描述段,加上对立观点陈述段,最后加上自己归纳结论段落。,应对写作的具体措施,.写提纲/主题句迅速根据中文提纲写出每一段的主题句,并且根据提纲写出进一步的提纲(关键词即可
4、),如具体的原因是什么?(5分钟)确定连接词迅速根据你的提纲确定一套你觉得较有新意的连接词来串联自己提纲中的要素避免使用first,second,third 这一类的词(分钟),应对写作的具体措施,.巧妙地引出话题,以精彩的第一句话吸引阅卷官的注意力.在不涉及个人观点时避免使用In my opinion,I think 等短语.(2分钟)1).There is a growing concern on campus love.2).No one can deny the fact that sth is a popular topic 3)Nowadays,an increasing numb

6、h/sb as an example 3.sth is a case in point 4.a case in point is sth/sb/thatYoung people are all pursuing personal happiness.She is an case in point./She is no exception.4.关于自身的例句:I have had such experiences for many times.,表达有人“认为”时的句型,Sb believes that Sb argues that Sb holds firmly to the view tha
7、t Sb maintains that,表达另一种不同观点时的转折连词,WhileOn the contrary HoweverIn contrast,写作词汇匮乏时的应急措施,1试用笼统词英语语言中有havetake make等笼统词,笼统词的重要特点在于意义广泛,搭配性强,构成词组后可以替代众多具体动词,虽然不能精确表达一个动作,却能大致表达意思。在一些具体动词写不出来时,用一些笼统词取代,也能收到异曲同工的效果。例如:我经历了一个极其艰苦的年代。,)I experienced a terrible hard time.改为:I had a terrible hard time,)Do y
8、ou understand my meaning,sir?改为:Do you take my meaning,sir?)I will preside over the meeting.改为:I will take the meeting.,2联想有关词汇 当遗忘产生或遇到未曾学过的词时,应采取放射性思维,发挥想象力,想出与之有关的单词,利用语言的内在联系,多层次,多角度地运用语言。一般情况下,联想可按下列思路进行:1.联想同义词;2.联想反义词。试看下列句子。I had a nightmare last night.=I had a bad dream last night.Nightmare
9、使用频率不太高,因此不太好记。而其同义词 bad dream却容易记,以后者取代前者丝毫不影响原句的意义。,3试用解释性语句 语言的功能在于表达,而表达的方式是多种多样的。当一个词影响到某个意思的完整表达时,我们可以用迂回的方式加以沟通。英语中多功能解释性语句就可以起到这一作用。He is a dumb.=He is a person who cannot speak.He refused/declined/rejected.=He said“no”.,使用率最高、覆盖面最广的基本句式,1.表示原因1)There are three reasons responsible for the si
