1、四级作文高分速成,英语四级写作具体要求:英语四级考试要求考生在30分钟内写出120字的文章。体材主要有议论文(分为“Topic题型”和“正反观点题”)应用文(主要是书信)、图表文等。,评分标准:2分条理不清,思路紊乱,语言支离破碎或大部分句子均有错误,且多数为严重错误。5分基本切题。表达思想不清楚,连贯性差。有较多的严重语言错误。8分基本切题。有些地方表达思想不够清楚,文字勉强连贯;语言错误相当多,其中有一些是严重的错误。11分切题。表达思想清楚,文字连贯,但有少量语言错误。14分切题。表达思想清楚,文字通顺。连贯性较好。基本上无语言错误,仅有个别小错。注:白卷,作文与题目毫不相关,或只有几个
2、孤立的词而无法表达思想,则给0分,基本要求,四级考试作文主要看内容、结构、语言三个方面。内容不跑题分段字迹工整结构上牢记总分总:先写主题句(Topic Sentence),再写分论点,最后写总结句(Conclusion)。语言最重要,往往使评分产生重大差异,语言要模仿和包装。,一)存在问题 1.不会写 所谓不会写指的是,当考试拿过一篇文章不知如何下手,不知如何提笔进行写作。主要是存在以下两个原因:一是考生的确无话可说;二是心里虽然有话,但是拿捏不准该写哪句为妙。于是思前想后、犹豫不决,始终不敢提笔进行写作。2.写不好 所谓写不好就是,拿过作文题,没有明确的写作思路,不按套路出牌;或是简单汉语逻
3、辑思维写作,不符合英语写作标准,近而没有文采。原因在于:第一是平时没有养成良好的写作习惯;第二对于英语写作的句式特点以及整体文章结构框架不了解。,(二)解决办法 第一,首先必须熟悉英语四级写作具体要求。针对不同的体裁,写作思路是不同的。比如,以议论文举例来说:1.议论文写作思路 2.议论文分类:阐述主题型作文(Topic);正反观点型作文(A&B)3.阐述主题型作文写作:(这类题型作文要求从一句话或一个主题出发,按照提纲的要求进行论述)4.正反观点型作文(A&B)(这类题型作文通常从正反两方面来分别论述,最后得出你自己的结论。采用论点加论据写作形式。),第二,熟悉英语写作的几个重要概念。1.英
4、语文章段落结构特点英语文章段落结构一般有三部分构成:主题句+扩展句+结尾句(1)主题句:所谓主题句,就是英语文章段落的中心思想句。它是英语文章段落的灵魂,在英语文章段落中居于主导地位。我们都知道英语文章一般喜欢开门见山,所以主题句一般位于英语文章段落的句首。其他句子都要围绕它而展开。(2)扩展句:所谓扩展句就是为主题句起解释说明或论证的句子。通常我们写扩展句所采用的方法是举例子(for example,for instance,such as,a case in point is that)、列数据(according to the recent study/survey,)等。(3)结尾句:
5、所谓结尾句就是总结句。英语写作也类似于汉语写作,最后再把自己本段落的写作目的陈述一下。但是在英语写作中结尾句毕竟还是少数。,2.主旨句 作为主旨句就是英语文章的中心思想句。英语文章一般首先用一句话概括一下作者的写作目的或意图,我们就把这句话称之为主旨句。,第三,学会遣词造句,1.遣词:(1)词汇等级 所谓词汇的等级就是,我们在写作的过程中,如果想出一个基本词汇来之后,能够在这个基本词汇的基础上把它再提升一下,也就是我们一般写作所提倡的用“难词”。比如,我们一提到“重要的”,大多数同学首先会想到“important”这个单词,那么提升一下的话就可以想到它的如下同义词:significant,vi
6、tal,main,crucial,momentous etc,(2)词汇准确性 所谓词汇的准确性是指,我们在有一个词近而想到它的同义词之后,要结合语境选择恰当的用词。在这里必须指明的是,并不是词汇等级越高越好,必须还要考虑到适合于不同的语境。比如,眼睛大,这个“大的”形容词,我们首先会想到big,近而想到great,large,huge,vast,titanic,enormous etc.在这里很明显用后面的词来修饰眼睛是不可以,只能用big,big 表示眼睛大而迷人可爱的。,2.造句:,(1)词组 很多考生平时写作不太擅长用词组,对于他们而言最习惯的就是想到汉语,然后对应汉语思维写出英语句子
7、,这种写作只能是单词的罗列组合因此,写出来的文章必然就是所谓平淡如流水,没有英语的味道。如果我们能够在单词的基础上,进一步想到与之同义的词组,那么文章就会显得与众不同,更具有英语的味道。比如上面所说的“重要的”这个单词,当我们想到important的时候,如果从语法角度再稍加考虑一下,我们会想到“be of importance”。因为,语法中规定:形容词等于of加这个形容词的名词形式。如果再提升一步,我们还学过一个常用的词组叫做“play an important role in”。,(2)句式 除了采用词组,要使文章更具英语的味道,我们还需要变换句式。流水帐式的文章显然不能得到高分。写作中
8、阅卷人喜欢的句式有以下两种:一是插入语;二是倒装。第一,插入语。所谓插入语,英语中有两种形式。一种是有两个逗号之间引起的成分称之为插入语;第二种是有两个半破折号引起的成分称之为插入语。如下所示(黑体划线处):Jinan,the Spring City,is a famous tourist city.Other people may give us instrumental supportfinancial aid,material resources,and needed servicesthat reduces stress by helping us resolve and cope w
9、ith our problems.插入语的作用主要有两个,一个是突出主语,比如说:He,who would like to play basketball,is a good student.第二个作用是解释说明,比如说:People,especially students,should work hard.,第二,倒装 倒装是我们写作中需要用到的。常用的倒装形式有以下几种:Only+时间状语 Only when all of us join in the efforts of eliminating cheating at all levels can we expect to have a
10、 cleaner society and a more beautiful future.Only+介词词组Only in this way can we master the writing skills step by steps.否定词位于句首(hardly when;never;not only,but also;seldom)在我一生当中很难遇到这样的人 Seldom in my life have I met such a kind-hearted man.地点方位名词位于句首 In no other place in the world can one find such ent
11、husiasm for applying for hosting the 2008 Olympic Games.,(3)修辞 无论是汉语写作还是英语写作,修辞其实非常的重要。它是作者写作功底具体事例地展现。所谓修辞包括比喻、拟人、排比等等。还是拿“重要的”来举例。当你用完词组之后,如果你用上下面比如句子,则文章就会显得神采飞扬,试比较:The bicycle is important for us.The bicycle is of importance for us.The bicycle plays an important role in our life.The bicycle,env
12、ironmental friendliness vehicle,plays an important role in our life.The bicycle is like the air,water,and sunshine and cannot be parted with a moment in our life.那么很明显,最后一个句子是我们最终拿到考场上去搏击高分的句子。,第四,平时要注意积累 很多考生为了写好作文也作了好多工作,课下也付出了很多,包括背诵大量的文章等等,但是提笔写作时候,仍不见的有所改观。问题在于很多考生虽然也背诵文章,但却只是死记硬背。如果合上书本让他复述,他们
13、就会卡壳。我们说背诵是个输入的过程,而说和写则是输出的过程。我们真正需要的是把平时积累的随时随地用在我们的写作中。因此,我们在注重积累的同时,一定在平时练习的时候,把他们多加运用。只有多练多用,才能真正达到学以致用,才能真正提高写作水平。,Arrangement,The titleThe title should be in the middle of the first line.Capitalize the first and last words of the titleAll other words except articles,coordinating conjunctions(a
