【文章內(nèi)容簡介】
的一種高分作文方法,考生在經(jīng)過短期訓(xùn)練之后便可 較大幅度地提高成績。為此有必要向考生加以介紹,目的是使一些對作文沒有把握的考生找 到一條可行的解決辦法。 (參考:蔡基剛《英語考試高分作文》 ) 需要指出的是所謂十句作文并非一定 10 句,從很多考生的高分 (200 詞以下 )來分析,句 子數(shù)量在 8 句至 12 句 (依句子長短和結(jié)構(gòu)不同而不同 )。如以每個(gè)句子平均 10— 15個(gè)單詞計(jì) 算,便能用 8— 12 個(gè)句子完成一篇要求 120— 150 字的作文。 其基本模式為: ┌ ─主題句 句 1 第一段─┤ 開頭 └─擴(kuò)展句 句 2 ┌─主題句 句 1 第一段─┤ 正文 ├─擴(kuò)展句 句 2 ├─擴(kuò)展句 句 3 ├─擴(kuò)展句 句 4 ├─擴(kuò)展句 句 5 ├─擴(kuò)展句 句 6 ├─擴(kuò)展句 句 7 ├─擴(kuò)展句 句 8 └─擴(kuò)展句 句 9 第三段 ──結(jié)尾句 句 10 結(jié)尾 第一段為開頭,包括兩句。第一句為主題句,必須提出,通過問題 點(diǎn)明全文主題;第二句為 擴(kuò)展句,須進(jìn)一步說明和支持主題句?;蚴菍㈥P(guān)系倒過來,由第一句說明情況,第二句提出 問題。 第二段為正文,共七句。第一句 (句 3)為主題句,提出本段的主題,它應(yīng)與第一段的主題 相關(guān)和一致。第二句至第七句 (句 4 一句 7)為擴(kuò)展句,說明和支持本段的主題。句與句之間要 注意運(yùn)用好過渡使段落邏輯合理,結(jié)構(gòu)得當(dāng)。 第三段為結(jié)尾,簡化為一句,也是全文的總結(jié)句,它將前面內(nèi)容總結(jié)為一結(jié)果,表明自己的 論點(diǎn)。 三段之間的連接要靈活運(yùn)用“啟、承、轉(zhuǎn)、合”的連接過渡手段。例如: Example 1 Television Television presents a vivid world in front of us. (1)(主題句 )Through TV, we can learn what is happening half way across the world. (2)(擴(kuò)展句 ) Television also plays an important educational role in our daily life. (3) (主題句 ) For one thing, the TV university provides an opportunity for many young men who can not go to formal universities.

(10)(總結(jié)句 ) (全文共 165 個(gè) 詞 ) Example 2 Changes in People39。s Diet There have been some changes nowadays in the diet of the Chinese. (1)(主題句 ) For example, grain, the main food of most people in China, is now playing a less important role, while the consumption of highnutrition food such as milk, meat has increased. (2) (擴(kuò)展句 ) The changes in diet can be accounted for by a number of factors. (3) (主題句 ) First, people are much wealthier than before.
