第一篇:2014年6月英语四级图表作文写作技巧
2014年6月英语四级图表作文写作技巧 看图作文出现的概率要小一些,所以考生平时练习的也少一些,考试时就不容易把握住写作技巧,针对这个问题,小编为大家总结了图表作文写作的一些技巧,希望对大家有帮助。简要描绘图画直观内容写好图表作文的第一步就是要把自己眼睛直观看到的图画内容简单的描述出来,这点在题干中也有强调。如果考生英语水平一般,无法组织好自己的语言,在对图画内容进行描述时,可以饮用图画中人物的对话。此外,这一段的描述简要描述即可,不用发散和深挖。这样一来,如果考生没看懂图画内容也可以照抄题干。阐明观点并深层探讨图画作文的观点一般在题干中都会清楚地给出来,考生在写作中除了需要看懂图画中的对话还要仔细审清题干,在写作过程中,考生阐明观点之后的思路与一般的六级英语作文提纲型写作一致,针对作文的观点可以先举例说明现象、然后再探讨导致现象的原因以及该现象可能导致的后果等;还可结合数字、研究、名言等材料对这个观点进行论证和深层探讨。总之,这一段就是要考生来发散和深挖内容。总结陈述观点并给出合理建议跟一般的提纲作文一样,图画作文的最后也要对全文进行观点总结,考生还要根据不同的图画内容和主题给出相应的建议或者评价,这一点有点类似解决问题型的作文结尾。对于第三部分的写作,考生一般都很熟悉,无论哪种作文,除了书信体以外,作文结尾一段都会要求考生给出自己的观点或意见,图画类的也一样。英语四、六级的改革说明现在考试也开始注重创新和改变,所以作文类型也会灵活多变,不会仅仅拘泥于传统的提纲写作,考生在复习时要时刻保持对创新的热情,做到无论考试有什么变化,自己都能有所准备。以上就是为大家准备的图表类作文的写作技巧,除了这些技巧之外,考生平时依然不能放松语法和词汇的复习,希望大家考试顺利过关!
在上半年的英语四级考试中,作文采用了图画式作文的模式,这对考生来说应该不会陌生,但如何能将此类作文写出高分,还是有一定技巧的。本文阐述了图画作文的三段式写作技巧,希望对备考2013年12月英语四级考试的同学们有所帮助。
2013年6月英语四级作文考察的是图画作文。对于图画作文,基本可以认为是我们小学时练习的“看图说话”。虽然题目不会给出提纲,但是基本的写作思路是固定的:描述图片、阐明观点、给出建议。
第一段,重点描述图画内容。这点在题干中也有强调(with a brief description of the picture)。对图画内容的描述可以引用图画中人物的对话。简要描述即可,不用发散或挖掘。也就意味着,事实上你若看不懂图画中的“核废物”之,其实没关系,照抄就好。
第二段,阐明观点。而观点在题干中事实上给得很清楚:the importance of doing small things before undertaking somethingbig.这进一步说明仔细审清题干比看懂图画中的对话更重要。阐明观点之后的思路与一般的六级提纲型写作一致,如我们一般在课上所提的,可以先举例说明现象、然后再探讨导致现象的原因以及该现象可能导致的影响等;还可结合数字、研究、名言等进行论证。
末段,除了总结观点外,一般还可以提出建议。这段的写法无论是图画、图表还是提纲写作、甚至格言谚语型写作,都差别不大。
继之前六级考察图画作文后,这次四级也考察了图画作文。这说明四、六级的出题思路不再拘泥于传统的提纲写作,开始进行多种变化。我们也要对相应的考法做好准备。
但无论哪种考法,最核心的仍然是:仔细审题、清晰思路、不要犯错。
四、六级一贯会在写作题干中包含重要信息甚至观点,因此审题必不可少;各种考法的文章展开方式、各段写法有类似之处,我们要学会融会贯通,以及文章只要没有犯语言错误,即便遣词造句不那么漂亮,分数也不会低。
展开方式有以下几种:
1.举例论证
举例论证时,结合你自身的例子是最容易有话说的论证方式。
2.引用论证
引用论证就是可以用来自书籍Once I read a book,…;There is an old saying …“俗话说……”;或者中外名人曾说过。
3.道理论证
道理论证即用日常生活中所有人都熟悉的一些话语来论证。一般主要从对引起某现象的原因略述一二。
分享一个可用的模板:
What has brought about this effect? I believe there are three main reasons.To begin with, ____________________(原因一).It is believed that
____________________(进一步稍加说明).In addition,____________________(原因二).Finally, ____________________.(再次总结原因。)
最后,结尾段再次重申观点 + 问题解决方法;避免某一现象的措施;向学校(the school),机构(XX administration),政府(the government),每个人(every citizen / every individual)发出呼吁(I appeal to…),给出建议(My suggestion is that …)漫画、图表近年常考,常用句型来支招
图表类:
1)As is shown in the table, ________________.(正如表格显示)
2)This is a chart which demonstrates / depicts / illustrates ________________.(这一表格展示)
3)Obvious from the graph is that ________________.(很显然从图中得出)
4)It must be pointed out that + 图中明显特征(必须指出)
5)It is worth mentioning that + 图中明显特征(值得一提)
漫画类:
1)Today I saw an interesting cartoon, in which ________________.(轻松、活泼,真实感带入,意思为:今天我看到了一幅有趣的漫画,其中……)
2)As is vividly depicted in the drawing above, ________________.(严肃、准确、客观描述,意思为:正如图中形象描绘出……)
3)The picture / cartoon / drawings talking about …(拟人化,意思为:图中谈论了……)
4)The cartoon describes an interesting phenomenon.(总起句,意思为:漫画描述了有一个有趣的现象)注意:这种封闭式提法后面,一定还要有一句结合图片细节的话。考前准备要充分,细节功夫勿轻心
作为考前冲刺的最后一发“磨刀粉”,温馨提示大家考前一定要备好准考证、2B铅笔、橡皮擦、好用的签字笔、收音机等考场必备物品。尤其是好用的签字笔这一条,直接关系到作文字迹是否清晰、漂亮!考场上,作文要想拿高分,一定要注意的细节就是:一要字迹清晰漂亮,二要语法、拼写错误少!
最后,祝愿每位考生都能在本次四级考试中取得理想的成绩!

第五篇:英语四级写作技巧
英语四级写作技巧
写作中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 support—financial aid, material resources, and needed services—that reduces stress by helping us resolve and cope with 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。虽然略显俗套,但是却是很能满足阅卷人的主观感受的。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 cleaner society and a more beautiful future.Only + 介词词组
Only in this way can we master the writing skills step by step.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 enthusiasm for applying for hosting the 2008 Olympic Games.第三,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。英语写作中的修辞问题我已经专门写过一篇文章(见《英语写作几种修辞手法》)。这里仅举一个比喻例子,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, environmental 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。问题在哪里呢?
我认为,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,他们就会卡壳。就是茶壶里煮饺子,倒不出来。我们说背诵是个输入的过程,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,把他们多家运用。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。
英语四级作文写作技巧
英语四级考试作文的评分依据是:文章切题,条理清楚语言准确和字数符合要求,所谓切题就是要求考生紧扣文章大纲;条理则要求考生词汇、语法运用不出错误;四级作文的字数要求一般是不少于100字。要在30分钟的时间内,达到这些要求,没有一套行之有效的方法显然是不行的。在这里,我们为大家提供四级写作的一般技巧。
一、审题
1.审体裁(议论文,说明文,描述文)
审题就是要审作文的题材和体裁。因为什么样的体裁就会用什么样的题材去写。那么体裁包括那些呢?它包括议论文,说明文和描述文。从近些年看,四级作文不是单一的体裁,而是几种体裁的糅合体。例如:
Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic “Trying to Be A Good University Student.” You should write at least 100 words and you should base your composition on the outline(given in Chinese)below:
1)做合格大学生的必要性
2)做合格大学生的必备条件(可以从德智体方面谈)
3)我计划怎样做
很多人说这种类型的作文是议论文。这是片面的,因为,第一段要求写“…必要性”,则是议论文;第二段要求写“…必备条件”,则要求写说明文;第三段要求写“…这样做”,则要求写描述文。所以在大多数情形下,四级作文是三种体裁的糅合体。
2.确定相应的写作方法
我们审题的目的就是根据不同体裁确定不同的写作方法。通过审题,我们可
以看出四级作文大都是三段式。如上例第一段为议论体,第二段为说明体,第三段为描述体。而各种文体又有不同的写作方式:议论文:要有论点和论据,而且往往从正反两方面来论述。例如上面第一段的思路是:做合格大学生,会怎么样(这是从正面论述);不能做合格的大学生,又会怎么样(从反面论述);所以我们要做合格的大学生(结论)。说明文:可以从几方面来说明一个问题,可以从德智体三方面来说明合格大学生的必要性。描述文:以“人”为中心描述一个“做”的过程。与上两段相比,本段的主语多为人称代词,他要与第二段相呼应进行描述。
二、确定主题句
审完题后,接下来就是如何写的问题。第一步就是确定主题句,主题句既能保证你不跑题,又能帮助你制定写作思路。而写主题句最保险的方法就是直接翻译中文提纲,如上述之段主题句为:
It is very necessary to be a good university student.(议论体的主题句)
There are several respects of necessities to be a good university student.(说明体的主题句)
What I will do in the future is the following.(描述体的主题句)
三、组织段落
确定主题句后,接下来的工作就是展开论述。许多考生真正犯难的也是这一步。最基本的解决办法是扩大词汇量,丰富自己的语法存储。在写作时,语法和词汇都是最基本的。然而,组织段落的能力也是尤为重要的。行文时,不只是提供一些information,还要学会运用一些examples, personal experiences, comparisons, descriptions等等,只有这样,才不会觉得无话可“写”。
四、连贯与衔接
1.列举法
列举的模式通常是
主题句
----example 1
----example 2
----example 3
列举时常用for example, for instance, such as, like, thus, take…as an example, to illustrate 等词语.Nonverbal communication, or “body language,” is communication by facial expressions, head or eye movements, hand signals, and body postures.It can be just as important to understanding as words are.Misunderstandings are often amusing but sometimes serious ones can arise between people from different culture if they misinterpret nonverbal signals.Take for example, the differences in meaning of gesture are very common in the United States: a circle made with the thumb and index finger.To an American, it means that everything is Ok.To a Japanese, it means that you are talking about money.In France, it means that something is worthless, and in Greece, it is an obscene gesture.Therefore, an American could unknowingly offend a Greek by using that particular hand signal.2.分类法
一般是在主题句之后,依次罗列段落指示词所表达的几个部分或几个方面。然后,选用丰富的事例对所罗列的各个部分或各个方面进行具体地说明或解释。There are three basic kinds of materials that can be found in any good library.First, there are books on all subjects, both in English and in many other languages.These books are organized according to subject, title, and author in a central file canned the card catalog.Books can generally be checked out of the library and taken home for a period of two to four weeks.Second, there are reference works, which include encyclopedias, dictionaries, bibliography, atlases, etc., and which generally must be used in the library itself.Third, there are periodicals-magazines, newspapers, pamphlets-which are filed alphabetically in racks, or which have been filmed to conserve space.Like reference works, periodicals cannot usually be removed from the library.分类时常用:most of all,next,moreover,in addition,besides,furthermore,to begin with,to start with,first of all,first,second,third…
3.因果关系
在段落一开头,就用主题句点明其因果关系,然后选用有关材料,客观的罗列某些原因或结果,以阐述中心思想。
Growing numbers of well-to-do Americans are making the decision to move abroad.They find it impossible in America to walk the streets at night without fear of being raped, mugged, or murdered, nor do they see a way to escape the poisonous air of the cities.They maintain that even American food has become increasingly dangerous to eat.Last but not least, they insist that they are sick of the pace of American life, a pace that leaves no time for relaxation or pleasure.因果关系常用语汇: because of, so, owing to, thanks to, thus, as a result of, hence, for this reason, consequently, is caused by, lead to, result in
4.比较法
主题句必须明确表明所要比较的对象和所要比较的范围,实际上就是罗列两个或两个以上比较对象的相同点。
Learning English is like building a house.Laying a solid foundation is the first and most important step.In other words, you should read and speak English every day.Memorizing new words and phrases is also helpful.Like building a house, learning English takes some time.So don’t be impatient.Remember, Rome wasn’t built in a day.常用语汇:at the same time, similar to, accordingly, both, show a degree of similarity, similarly, the same as, and… too, in the same way, in a like manner
5.举例法
列举事实或举出实例来说明中心思想, 是简单易行、具有说服力的写作方法。
Communicating with other people by telephone is very convenient, especially when you have something urgent.For example, if one of your family members is
seriously ill at night, and you don’t know how to deal with it and where to find a doctor, what can you do? A telephone is the answer.Dial 120 and you will get services from the hospital very soon.
