❶ 英語老師叫我們上去講解課文段落,應該從哪些方面入手呢
what she liked most about her job引導的是賓語從句(ask sb sth.結構) she said that although there wasn't much glory in a reporter's existence 這一句中首先是that引導的賓語從句,although 引導讓步狀從; she found it interesting and challenging中用到了find it +adj的復合賓語結構 be bored with sth=be fed up with=be tired of不能算語法,就是詞彙短語 She added that 賓從; as a reporter賓從裡面的介詞短語作為一個記者 be challenged to do sth. ask her if , if引導賓從 Smilling brightly, 現在分詞做伴隨狀語, 後面緊跟一個賓語從句told me,"" 引號裡面的第一句是個定語從句;nothing that...; 最後一句中when引導時間狀從, feel like 感到好像 to see 狀語表目的後面 14. 後面接了一個what 引導的賓語從句。我曾問俊彥她最喜歡記者工作的什麼地方,她說盡管當記者沒有什麼榮耀,但是她覺得很有意思並且很有挑戰。「我經常遇到很多人,去很多不同的地方。我從來不厭倦這一工作」她補充說作為記者,她需要很多不同的技能,在不斷挑戰自己去學習新東西。最後,我問她多年以後是否還覺得對此好奇。她笑了,笑得很燦爛,告訴我說「過去我從媽媽那裡學到的東西到現在我還記得。今天當我尋找故事的時候,我還感到自己像在翻動石塊看有什麼藏在下面!」
❷ 怎樣寫好英語段落(二)
段落發展的手段及結尾段的寫法 在上一講我們講了主題句,推展句的寫法;這一講我們要進一步來談一談段落發展的幾種手段以及結尾段的寫法。 段落發展的幾種手段 1. 列舉法(details) 作者運用列舉法,是通過列舉一系列的論據對topic sentence中擺出的論點進行廣泛、全面地陳述或解釋,列舉的順序可以按照所列各點內容的相對重要性、時間、空間等進行。 Yesterday was one of those awful days for me when everything I did went wrong. First, I didn't hear my alarm clock and arrived late for work. Then, I didn't read my diary properly and forgot to get to an important meeting with my boss. During the coffee break, I dropped my coffee cup and spoilt my new skirt. At lunch time, I left my purse on a bus and lost all the money that was in it. After lunch, my boss was angry because I hadn't gone to the meeting. Then I didn't notice a sign on a door that said "Wet Paint" and so I spoilt my jacket too. When I got home I couldn't get into my flat because I had left my key in my office. So I broke a window to get in and cut my hand. 根據本段主題句中的關鍵片語everything I did went wrong,作者列舉了8點內容,分別由first, then, ring the coffee break, after lunch time等連接詞語引出,使得該文條理清楚、脈絡分明、內容連貫。 常用於列舉法的過渡連接詞有:for one thing , for another, finally, besides, moreover, one another , still another, first, second, also等。 2. 舉例法(example) 作者通過舉出具體事例來闡述、說明主題句的內容,嚴格地講,舉例法也是列舉法的一種,它們的區別在於:列舉法側重羅列事實,所列事實力求全面;而舉例法側重通過舉出典型事例來解釋作者觀點,且事例可多可少。 我們來看下面這個用舉例法展開的段落。 There are many different forms of exercises to suit different tastes. For example, those who enjoy competitive sports may take up ball games. For another example, if they prefer to exercise alone, they can have a run or take a walk in the morning or in the evening. Besides, people can go swimming in the summer and go skating in the winter. In short, no matter what their interests are, people can always find more than one sports that are suitable to them. 本段採用了三個事例來說明主題句中的關鍵片語different forms of exercises,這三個例子分別由連接詞for example, for another example 和 besides引出,最後由引導的結尾句總結全段內容。 舉例法中常用的連接詞有:for example (instance), one example is, besides, furthermore, moreover, in addition等。 3. 敘述法(narration) 敘述法發展段落主要是按照事物本身的時間或空間的排列順序,通過對一些特有過渡連接詞的使用,有層次分步驟地表達主題句的一種寫作手段。用這種方法展開段落,作者能夠清楚連貫地交待事物的本末,從而可以使讀者可以清晰、完整地理解文章的含義,例如: In the flat opposite, a woman heard the noise outside. When she looked out through the window, she discovered that her neighbor was threatened by someone. She immediately called the police station. In answer to the call, a patrol police car arrived at the scene of the crime quickly. Three policemen went inside the flat at once, and others guarded outside the building to prevent anyone from escaping. 這段是按照事物發展的先後順序,敘述從發現案情、報警、到警察趕到、包圍現場的過程。全文脈絡清晰,敘述的層次感強,結構緊湊。 常用於敘述法中的過渡連接詞有:first, an the beginning, to start with, after that, later, then, afterwards, in the end, finally等。 4. 對比法或比較法(comparison & contrast) 將同類的事物按照某種特定的規則進行比較分析是一種常用的思維方法。通過對比,更容易闡述所述對象之間的異同和優缺點,例如: The heart of an electronic computer lies in its vacuum tubes, or transistors. Its electronic circuits work a thousand times faster than the nicer cells in the human brain. A problem that might take a human being a long time to solve can be solved by a computer in one minute. 在這段文字上, 作者為了突出電子計算機運行速度之快,首先將它與人腦進行了比較, "-- a thousand times faster than --" ;而後,又將這一概念具體到了 "a problem"上,通過對比使讀者從 "-- a long time -- in one minute"上有更加直觀的認識。 常用於對本法或比較法上的過渡連接詞有:than, compared with等。 5. 分類法(classification) 在闡述某一概念的段落中,常用分類法。通過對概念中所包括的事物進行分門別類,分別加以敘述,使讀者有更為清晰的認識,如: Ever since humans have lived on the earth, they have made use of various forms of communication. Generally, this expression of thoughts and feelings has been in the form of oral speech. When there is a language barrier, communication is accomplished through sign language in which motions stand for letters, words and ideas. Tourists and the people unable to hear or speak have had to resort to this form of expression. Many of these symbols of whole words are very vivid and exact and can be used internationally; spelling, however, cannot. Body language transmits ideas or thoughts by certain actions, either intentionally or unintentionally. A nod signifies approval, while shaking the head indicates a negative reaction. Other forms of nonlinguistic language can be found in signal flags, Morse code, and picture signs. 在該段中為了說明topic sentence中的 "various forms of communication",作者將其分為oral speech, sign language, body language及other forms of nonlinguistic language,並逐加闡述。 採用這種方法的段落並沒有標志突出的連接詞,所述各項均為平行並列關系,所以沒有明顯的主次之分。 6.因果分析法(cause and effect) 在闡述某一現象的段落中,常採用因果分析法。例如: The role of women in today's society is changing. One reason is that women have begun to assert themselves as independent people through the women's movement. Also, women are aware of the alternatives to staying at home. Another reason is that increasing numbers of women who enter new fields and interests serve as role models for other women. Moreover, men are becoming more conscious of the abilities of women and have begun to view their independence positively. 本段中,主題句提出了一種社會現象,推展句則對產生這種現象的原因作出各種解釋。 常用於因果分析法的連接詞有:because, so, as a result等。 7. 定義法(definition) 在科普文章的寫作中,定義法是必不可少的。通過下定義,可以使讀者對該事物有一個更直接的認識。 Automation refers to the introction of electronic control and automation operation of proctive machinery. It reces the human factors, mental and physical, in proction, and is designed to make possible the manufacture of more goods with fewer workers. The development of automation in American instry has been called the "Second Instrial Revolution". 這一段文字使我們了解了 "automation" 和 "Second Instrial Revolution" 兩個概念,分別由 "refers to" 和 "been called" 引出。 常出現在定義法中的詞語有:refer to, mean, call等。 8. 重復法(repetition) 句子的一部分反復出現在段落中,這就是重復法。它往往造成一種步步緊逼的氣氛,使文章結構緊湊,有感染力。比如: Since that time, which is far enough away from now, I have often thought that few people know what secrecy there is in the young, under terror. I was in mortal terror of the young man who wanted my heart and liver; I was in mortal terror of my interlocutor with the iron leg; I was in mortal terror of myself, from whom an awful promise had been extracted; -- 該段中反復應用了I was in mortal terror of …我經常處於恐怖之中。 以上, 我們結合具體文章討論了展開段落的幾種方法。在實際寫作中,我們往往不必拘泥於一種寫作方法,而是將若干方法穿插在一起,使文章有聲有色。 結尾段 我們知道文章的開頭很重要,因為好的開頭可以吸引讀者、抓住讀者的注意力。同樣,文章的結尾也很重要,好的結尾會使讀者對全文的中心思想留下深刻的印象,可以增添文章的效果和說服力,讓人深思,回味無窮。確切地說,結尾的作用就是概括全文內容,進一步強調或肯定文章的中心思想,使讀者加深印象;有時也用於展望未來,提出今後方向或令人深思的問題給讀者留下回味和思考的餘地。 但是,如何才能寫好英文短文的結尾呢? 下面就介紹幾種寫結尾段最常用的方法: 1.重復中心思想: 回到文章開頭闡明的中心思想或主題句上,達到再次肯定和強調的效果。 (例1)A sense of humor is really one of the keys to happiness. It gives zest to life to make it worth living. (例2)With all these benefits, it is no wonder that sports and games have now become more popular with people than ever. 2.作出結論: 文章最後用幾句話概括全文內容,並進一步肯定文章的中心思想或作者的觀點。 (例1)In conclusion, a good teacher-student relationship can be mutual beneficial. The students gain knowledge eagerly and enjoyably, and the teacher gains satisfaction from his job. (例2)On the whole there are more advantages than disadvantages in the use of TV. Yet different people may have different attitude toward TV. But we must realize that television in itself is neither good nor bad. Its value to people and society depends on how we look at it. 3.應用引語: 用格言、諺語或習語總結全文,既言簡意賅又有更強的說服力。 (例1)If you have anything to do, try to do it yourself, for that is the safest way to
permanent success. Remember the famous saying. "God helps those who help themselves." (例2)If we stick to studies day after day, there is nothing that can't be achieved. As an old saying goes: "Constant dropping of water wears away a stone." 4.用反問結尾: 雖然形式是問句,但意義卻是肯定的,具有明顯的強調作用,引起讀者思考。 (例1)Therefore, listening skills must be consciously improved. Since it is such an important means of learning and communication, why should we not develop this ability as far as possible? (例2)So,what can we benefit from wealth if we do not have health? 5.提出展望或期望: 表示對將來的展望或期待讀者投入行動。 (例1)I am sure that Chinese will become one of the most important languages in the world in the next century. As China will open further to the outside world the language is sure to be spread world widely. (例2) If everyone has developed good manners, people will form a more harmonious relation. If everyone behaves considerately towards others and social ethics people will live in a better world. With the general mood of society improved, there will be a progress of civilization. 以上介紹了幾種寫結尾段最常用的方法,但到底選擇何種方法結尾還得根據文體來決定。平鋪直敘的記敘文,往往在故事或事實情節講完時文章也就自然結束了,而說理性和邏輯性較強的說明文和議論文都應有一個正式的結尾。希望以上介紹的幾種方法能對大家寫好結尾有所幫助。 首先,一個段落必須有一個中心即主題思想,該中心由主題句特別是其中的題旨來表達。整個段落必須緊扣這個主題(stick or hold to the topic),這就是段落的統一性(unity)。其次,一個段落必須有若干推展句,使主題思想得到充分展開,從而給讀者一個完整的感覺,這就是完整性(completeness or adequateness)。再者,一個段落不是雜亂無章的,而是有機的組合,句子的排列順序必須合乎邏輯,從一個句子到另一個句子的過渡必須流暢(smooth),這就是連貫性(coherence)。下面我們就對這三個標准分別加以說明。 1. 統一性 一個段落內的各個句子必須從屬於一個中心,任何游離於中心思想之外的句子都是不可取的。請看下例: Joe and I decided to take the long trip we'd always wanted across the country. We were like young kids buying our camper and stocking it with all the necessities of life. Bella bakes the best rhubarb pie. We started out in early spring from Minneapolis and headed west across the northern part of the country. We both enjoyed those people we met at the trailer park. Joe received a watch at his retirement dinner. To our surprise, we found that we liked the warm southern regions very much, and so we decided to stay here in New Mexico. 本段的主題句是段首句,controlling idea(中心思想)是take the long trip across the country。文中出現兩個irrelevant sentences,一個是Bella bakes the best rhubarb pie,這一段是講的是Joe and I,中間出現一個Bella是不合適的。還有,Joe received a watch at his retirement dinner這一句更是與主題句不相關。考生在四級統考的作文卷上常常因為造出irrelevant sentences(不相關語句)而丟分,值得引起注意。再看一個例子: My name is Roseanna, and I like to keep physically fit. I used to weigh two hundred pounds, but I joined the YMCA for an exercise class and diet program. In one year I lost eighty pounds. I feel much better and never want to have that much weight on my five-feet frame again. I bought two new suitcases last week. Every day I practice jogging three miles, swimming fifteen laps, lifting twenty-pound weights and playing tennis for one hour. My mother was a premature baby. 本段的controlling idea 是like to deep physically fit,但段中有兩個irrelevant sentences,一個是I bought two new suitcases last week,另一個是My mother was a premature baby。 從上面兩個例子可以看出,native speakers同樣會造出來irrelevant sentences。卷面上如果這種句子多了,造成偏題或離題,那問題就更嚴重了。權責聲明:本站所有音樂均網上搜集僅做寬頻測試,任何涉及商業盈利目的均不得使用,否則後果自負!如遇英文歌曲不能播放,系歌曲鏈接失效,請諒解!本站全部英文歌曲的所有權歸其唱片公司或歌手所有。請購買正版英文歌曲支持你的偶像!
❸ 在英語文章中 如何分段
英文中一般不強調是否要分段,但你想要分的話也可以按一定的方法來分。如果文章分條的話,你可以把每一條作為一段。如果文章是寫人的話,就可以參照漢語寫作文了,一般就是總分總,也就是開頭先總的介紹下某人,然後第二段就用寫事來寫他,最後一段就總的來說。總之英語作文的分段基本上和漢語一樣,沒什麼出入。
❹ 在英語寫作過程中,我們要對段落的格式有哪些要求呢
在英語的寫作過程中,
我們對段落的格式是有要求的,
一般是需要空兩格之後再開始寫作文的,
同時可以採用總分總的方式去寫英語作文,
這樣會比較有條理,
給別人的印象也會好,
在考試的時候也容易得到高分。
❺ 英語段落寫作的結構要點 要英文回答
The structure of an English essay is separated into three parts.The introction,the body paragraphs and the conclusion.
The introction is where you introce your ideas and give an overview of what you are going to write about.By reading this,the examiner should have a good idea of the content of your essay.

❼ 英語作文怎麼講
方法/步驟
1.認真審題立意
文章要有明確的主題,必須具備4個條件:准確、鮮明、深刻、集中。以作文「The English teacher I Admire Most」為例,文章的主題是關於記敘我最欣賞的一位英語老師,因而就不能泛泛談論老師這一職業或自己的幾位老師。
2. 草擬提綱
文章布局要做好3件事:安排好層次段落,鋪設好過渡,處理好開頭和結尾。如命題作文中有提示句,還要從提示句的關鍵詞出發,圍繞關鍵詞開拓思路,發揮聯想,記錄下聯想到的東西,可以是句子或單詞片語,可以是英語或漢語。仍以「The English Teacher I Admire Most」為例,提綱可以這樣寫:
1)Who is the English teacher I admire most
2) My reasons
3) What can I learn from the teacher
3.寫出落主題句,理文章之脈絡
一篇短文的段落一般分為引導段、主題段和結尾段。每段的主題句非常重要,是作者思維的起點,切題的准繩,闡述的對象。看到段落主題句,讀者大致了解段落要闡述的內容。段落主題句通常是一個語法結構完整、內容概括、用詞簡潔明了的單句。通常將段落主題句置於段落的開頭,可使文章結構更清晰,有說服力。
4. 參照提綱,緊扣主題句,完成各段落
有了段落主題句後,還需要順著段落主題句的方向,參照提綱中的思路,從而完成各個段落。引導段要能引起讀者的注意和興趣,為主題段鋪路架橋。主題段應圍繞文章和該段的主題來展開。展開的方式包括:順序法、舉例法、比較法、對比法、說明法、因果法、推導法、歸納法,和下定義等。可以根據需要任選一種或幾種方式。還是以「The English Teacher I Admire Most」為例,主題段中就能用到舉例法、說明法、因果法等。
❽ 英語段落的寫法
好模糊。對你的問題2中理解。
先簡單的說:
1.左對齊
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 independen2.左縮進2個字元(和中文的一樣)
I do not understand ehy people confuse cat, prissy, whith rhw one I had saveral years ago. Henry. the two cats are only alike in breed. Prissy, a quiet, feminine//
如果你的意思是如何寫好一個段落,那麼請繼續往下看
首先,一個段落必須有一個中心即主題思想,該中心由主題句特別是其中的題旨來表達。整個段落必須緊扣這個主題(stick or hold to the topic),這就是段落的統一性(unity)。其次,一個段落必須有若干推展句,使主題思想得到充分展開,從而給讀者一個完整的感覺,這就是完整性(completeness or adequateness)。再者,一個段落不是雜亂無章的,而是有機的組合,句子的排列順序必須合乎邏輯,從一個句子到另一個句子的過渡必須流暢(smooth),這就是連貫性(coherence)。下面我們就對這三個標准分別加以說明。
1、統一性
一個段落內的各個句子必須從屬於一個中心,任何游離於中心思想之外的句子都是不可取的。請看下例:
Joe and I decided to take the long trip we』d always wanted across the country. We were like young kids buying our camper and stocking it with all the necessities of life. Bella bakes the best rhubarb pie. We started out in early spring from Minneapolis and headed west across the northern part of the country. We both enjoyed those people we met at the trailer park. Joe received a watch at his retirement dinner. To our surprise, we found that we liked the warm southern regions very much, and so we decided to stay here in New Mexico.
本段的主題句是段首句,controlling idea(中心思想)是take the long trip across the country。文中出現兩個irrelevant sentences,一個是Bella bakes the best rhubarb pie,這一段是講的是Joe and I ,中間出現一個Bella是不合適的。還有,Joe received a watch at his retirement dinner這一句更是與主題句不相關。考生在四級統考的作文卷上常常因為造出irrelevant sentences(不相關語句)而丟分,值得引起注意。再看一個例子:
My name is Roseanna, and I like to keep physically fit. I used to weigh two hundred pounds, but I joined the YMCA for an exercise class and diet program. In one year I lost eighty pounds. I feel much better and never want to have that much weight on my five-feet frame again. I bought two new suitcases last week. Everyday I practice jogging three miles, swimming fifteen laps, lifting twenty-pound weights and playing tennis for one hour. My mother was a premature baby.
本段的controlling idea 是like to deep physically fit,但段中有兩個irrelevant sentences,一個是I bought two new suitcases last week,另一個是My mother was a premature baby。
從上面兩個例子可以看出,native speakers同樣會造出來irrelevant sentences。卷面上如果這種句子多了,造成偏題或離題,那問題就更嚴重了。
2、完整性
正象我們前面說得那樣,一個段落的主題思想靠推展句來實現,如果只有主題句而沒有推展句來進一步交待和充實,就不能構成一個完整的段落。同樣,雖然有推展句,但主題思想沒有得到相對圓滿的交待,給讀者一種意猶未盡的感覺。這樣的段落也不能完成其交際功能。例如:
Physical work can be a useful form of therapy for a mind in turmoil. Work concentrates your thoughts on a concrete task. Besides, it is more useful to work ---- you proce something rather than more anxiety or depression.
本段的主題句是段首句。本段的兩個推展句均不能回答主題句中提出的問題。什麼是「a mind in turmoil」(心境不平靜)Physical work又如何能改變這種情況?為什麼它能起therapy的作用?讀者得不到明確的答案。由於四級統考的作文部分只要求寫一篇100~120個詞的三段式短文,每一段只有大約40個詞左右,因此,要達到完整就必須盡可能地簡明。例如:
It is not always true that a good picture is worth a thousand words. Often writing is much clearer than a picture. It is sometimes difficult to figure out what a picture means, but a careful writer can almost always explain it.
段首句所表達的主題思想是一種看法,必須有具體事例加以驗證。上述兩個推展句只是在文字上對主題作些解釋,整個段落內容空洞,簡而不明。如果用一兩個具體的例子的話,就可以把主題解釋清楚了。比如下段:
It is not always true that a picture is worth a thousand words. Sometimes, pictures are pretty useless things. If you can』t swim and fall in the river and start gulping water, will you be better off to hold up a picture of yourself drowning, or start screaming "Help"?
3、連貫性(coherence)
連貫性包括意連和形連兩個方面,前者指的是內在的邏輯性,後者指的是使用轉換詞語。當然這兩者常常是不可分割的。只有形連而沒有意連,句子之間就沒有內在的有機的聯系;反之,只有意連而沒有形連,有時行文就不夠流暢。
1)、意連
段落中句子的排列應遵循一定的次序,不能想到什麼就寫什麼。如果在下筆之前沒有構思,邊寫邊想,寫寫停停,那就寫不出一氣呵成的好文章來。下面介紹幾種常見的排列方式。
A.按時間先後排列(chronological arrangement)
B. 按位置遠近排列(spatial arrangement)
C. 按邏輯關系排列(logical arrangement)
a. 按重要性順序排列(arrangement in order of importance)
b.由一般到特殊排列(general-to-specific arrangement)
c. 由特殊到一般排列(specific-to-general arrangement)
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。
4、有損連貫性的幾種情況:
考生在寫作中經常出現下面幾種錯誤:
1、不必要的改變時態,
2、不必要的改變單復數,
3、不必要的改變人稱
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。

❿ 《英語寫作-句子 段落 篇章》 答案
If you put a buzzard in a pen six to eight feet square and entirely open at the top, the bird, in spite of its ability to fly, will be an absolute prisoner.
The reason is that a buzzard always begins a flight from the ground with a run of ten to twelve feet.
Without space to run, as is its habit, it will not even attempt to fly, but remain a prisoner for life in a small jail with no top.
The ordinary bat that flies around at night, who is a remarkable nimble creature in the air, cannot take off from a level place.
If it is placed on the floor or flat ground, all it can do is to shuffle about helplessly and, no doubt, painfully, until it reaches some slight elevation from which it can throw itself into the air. Then, at once, it takes off like a flash.
A bumblebee if dropped into an open tumbler will be there until it dies, unless it is taken out.
It never sees the means of escape at the top, but persists in trying to find some way out through the sides near the bottom. It will seek a way where none exists, until it completely destroys itself.
In many ways, there are lots of people like the buzzard, the bat and the bumblebee. They are struggling about with all their problems and frustrations1, not realizing that the answer is right there above them.
如果把一隻禿鷲放在一個6~8平方英尺的無頂圍欄里,這只大鳥盡管 會飛,也絕對會成為這欄中之囚。原因是禿鷲從地面起飛前總要先助跑10~12 英尺的距離。這是它的習慣,如果沒有了足夠的助跑空間,它甚至不會嘗試去飛, 只會終身困囿於一個無頂的小囚籠中。
晚上飛來飛去的普通的蝙蝠,本是一種在空中極其敏捷的動物,但卻 無法在平地上起飛。如果被放在地板或平坦的地面上,它就只會無助地挪動,毫 無疑問這樣很痛苦。除非它到了稍高的位置,有了落差,才可以立刻閃電般地起 飛。
一隻大黃蜂如果掉進了一個敞口平底玻璃杯里,除非有人把它拿出來, 否則它就會一直呆在里邊直到死去。它永遠不知道可以從杯口逃出,只堅持試圖 從杯底的四壁尋找出路。它會在根本不存在出口的地方尋找出路,直到徹底毀了 自己。
其實在很多方面,很多人也像禿鷲、蝙蝠和大黃蜂一樣,使盡渾身解 數試圖解決問題、克服挫折,卻沒有意識到解決之道就在正上方。

寫作技巧
1、准確
要使你的英語寫作文章語義表達准確,首先要盡量不要在學術文章中出現"大概、也許"之類模稜兩可地詞語,避免出現容易讓人困惑和誤解地詞語和表達法;其次,要盡量避免使用那些有多種含義地詞語和表達法。
例如:Singaporeisafinecountry這句話中地fine一詞有多種含義,如"好地、細小地、罰款"等。日常生活中這樣使用沒有問題,但在寫作時一定要避免使用這種容易產生歧義地多義詞。
2、簡潔。
直截了當、切中要點是保證文章簡潔地最好寫作形式。與中文寫作相比,英語寫作非常強調直奔主題、簡單明快地寫作風格。
例如,在寫作一個段落時,常常將概括段落主要內容地主題句(topicsentence)作為段落地首句,以便讓讀者迅速明確本段要講述地內容。另外,寫作時盡量將每個句子寫得簡短一些,少用或不用冗長地復合句。切記:短小精練地句子表達地意思才強而有力。
