number)has almost doubled, as against(pared with)1990.(據(jù)可靠/官方統(tǒng)計,和1990年相比,這個比例/數(shù)字已幾乎增長了一倍。)眾所周知,任何文章只要有頭就要有尾,以使整篇文章結(jié)構完整、和諧。一般來講,文章的結(jié)尾對整篇文章起三個重要作用:一是總結(jié)全文,使其前后照應,從而加強讀者對文章要點的印象;二是提出解決所論及問題的方案或建議;三是促使讀者對該問題的前景或未來發(fā)展趨勢進行深層次的思索。(1)From

of…(該我們馬上結(jié)束??這種不良的現(xiàn)象了。)(4)There is no doubt that further attention must be paid to the problem of…(毫無疑問,一定要進一步地重視??問題。如果我們要想??,??就很重要)如果說引用語作為文章開頭能起到點明主題、引人入勝的效果的話,以引言作為文章結(jié)尾卻能達到畫龍點睛,一語概括全文的效果。(1)Edison is right in saying that …(愛迪生說??,這是正確的。是啊,如果你要??,你就應該??)(3)Yes, as …once said,”…”(是啊,正如??曾經(jīng)說過:“??”)對某個問題有了解的辦法和方向以后,除了建議人怎么做以外,寫作者應聯(lián)系自己的實際表明為該問題的解決盡某方面的努力。(1)As a young college student, I should be aware of…(作為一個大學生,我應該意識到??)(2)As builders of the 21st century, we should be responsible for…(作為21世紀的建設者,我們應對??負責任。否則我將辜負??的希望。由于它只是屬于論說文中的一種,因此許多相關句型我們在前面第部分(文章正文部分寫作的常用句型)中已經(jīng)給出,現(xiàn)在讓我們再一次重復部分句型,使大家能熟練地掌握。)(6)A…, while(on the other hand
