三、英语写作核查清单 ;[-dth
为了提高找错效率,整理一个写作中常见错误的核查清单(checklist)是很有益处的。这
5PPV`7Xm9
样就能做到有的放矢,根据核查清单所列举的错误,迅速地查找错误。 k,xY\r$
1.是否漏掉动词“to be" |wKC9 O@%
一般来说,每个句子(或分句)必须有一个动词作谓语。看一下每个句子中是否都有 r^?Q o
动词。如缺少动词,那么很可能漏掉的就是动词“to be"。 sskwJu1
2.在第三人称单数后的动词是否漏掉s(指现在时) d/8I&{.
很快地浏览一下你的作文,找到每一个动词,再找该动词的主语,决定动词后面是 ZGHkW9b&
否要加S. |0?h6
3.复数名词后面是否漏了s *dn~-W.
查看所有的名词,看一下它们是否需要加s。 DiyviH
4.每二个单数可数名词之前必须有限定词(determiner) !"2nL%PW~
这些限定词有冠词:a,an,the;指示代词:this,that;所有格:my,your,Mary’s, R 2uo ZA,
etc. 对于不少考生来说,判断究竟在什么地方需要加冠词非常困难。但是有一种相对 swvn*xr
较简单的规则,即每个单数可数名词之前必须有限定词。 T`f6`1x
5.作文中的时态有无变化。如有变化,看一下是否有正当理由 W6t"n_%?"
有些考生在写作文时,时常会毫无道理地改变动词的时态。查看一下每个动词,看 c|[:vin
看它是否同前一个动词在时态上一致。如果不一致,查看一下时态的改变是否有依据。 RLN>*X
6.是否漏掉连接词 }g:y!pk
一般来说,一个句子只能有一个限定动词,如有两个或两个以上动词,那么它们就 (&4aebkZO
会由并列连接词连接,或出现在由从属连接词引导的从句中。考生可以数一下每句 <@9p|[!
句子中的限定动词和连接词。动词数应该比连接词数多1个。为了便于检查,在写作 >-YPCW
过程中,不要省略任何从属连接词,特别是“that"。 d]0.6T1[K
*hVW>{a
四. 主题和结构 D!kv+<+
英文写作的要求是“根据所规定的情境或所给出的提纲,写一篇短文”。这里的 =(ts~^
规定情境或所给出的提纲,实际上已经规定了文章的整体结构。 C`c;I7
考生需要将这些信息转换成正确的英语语言。在每个要点项下,再加上一些支持 N\ ?%944R
性的英语语句;为了使文章富有可读性,考生还必须注意卷面的美观和书写的工整。 =e/{fUg8f
从宏观结构层面考察研究生英文作文,我们应注意的另一个问题是一致性问题, ~d :Z|8
也就是点和支持论点的论据之间必须具有逻辑性。除此之外,论点之间应注意主 F
i?2sa
次之分,必须做重点突出。恰当地将文章分成不同的段落,有助于体现各部分的 0x!XE|7I
逻辑关系和层次。
RKsr}-18
一篇150个左右单词的英文短文基本按照开头段——中间段——结尾段的框架搭 Jw'%[(q
Q
建。其中间段比开头段和结尾段要长些。开头段必须用能够吸引读者注意力的语 w?6"`Mo
言点明主题,使者了解文章的主旨(Thesis)。中间段落经常是作文的主干内容。可 "Zd4e2>{M\
以由一个或一个以上段落组成。其主要功能在于支持说明或论证上段提到的文章 Tx%6whd/'
的主题。在每一个段落的首句般为段落主题句(Topic sentence)。跟着主题句的是支性句子,其内容可以是事实、数故事或专家意见等,主要功能用来帮助段落主 8Czy<}S<G
题句说明文章主题。结尾段落用来归纳概或重新说明主题观点,也可以用来说明 jA R@?X
观点,提出建议,做出评论或针对文章提出的问题出具体的办法。 euO!+9p
YHN@?}T()
五.文章的开头和结尾 qt5CoxeJ
我们知道,在篇幅为120个字的英文作文中,其开头和结尾的作用是很明显的。 n<6p 0w
运用得当,文章会富有逻辑性,重点突出。 fyIL/7hzf4
(一)开头 :nYl]Rm
文章的开头很重要,如果处理得当,一开始就能吸引读者的注意力。下面是几 6]^;
s1!
种典型的开头写法。
8`Fo
^c=j
1.主题句法 :IDD(<^9
提出一个论点或论据作为文章要阐明的主题,使读者了解你写作的理由或主要 (KR$PLxDK
目的。 [{e[3b*M|
例: ;:Q 5?zM
This report summarizes the results of our fourth—quarter sales. E+Z//)1Z
One Of the most notable phases Of the industrial revolution was the rapid growth of cities。 ;Pik},
2.问题法 ?ihkV?;)
用提问的方式来引发文章的内容,吸引读者的注意力。例: pASNiH698
Should a scientist be responsible for his discoveries? #y13(u,dN
What does it take to succeed in one’s studies or career? @mBZu!,
3.数据法 7UvfXzDNC
用某些统计数字来引出文章的内容,例: )K.~A&y@
The fact that less than 5% of the British population graduate from universities may seem surprising when compared with the American percentage of over 30%. [<P(S~J
4.概要法 W(ITs}O
开宗明义地让读者了解文章的主要观点,然后通过举例或逻辑推理等方法加以佐证, {Y-<#U~iH
例: AFO g*{1
This memo covers five steps in the new procedure. YG ,
This report is divided into three main sections:(1) what equipment you need,(2) how to use equipment :5hKE(3Q
,and (3) how to maintain equipment. K5gh7
(二)结尾 Xwy0dXko
在写英文作文时,结尾是值得考生重视的另一个关键的地方。如果写得好,往往能给 IMLk{y%6
读者留下深刻印象。下面介绍几种常见的结尾写法: n;8[WR)
1. 重复文章的主题句 ^6s
<
重复文章的主题句的目的在于强调作者的主要论点,例: 5BnO-[3
With the foregoing three points in mind,one can be a true good student. [2I1W1pd
If any items mentioned above arouse your interest,please 1et us know. NfizX!w&
2.概括结论 q eLfO
用几句话概括上文内容来加深读者对文章观点的理解,例: \}Fx''
From what has been discussed above,we may draw the conclusion that no success can be achieved @qk$
6X
without laboring. 8o43J;mA
In summary,we should create such an environment in which each child in his or her own way follows p2 u*{k{
his curiosity where it leads him,develops his ability and talents,pursues his interests and likes. ! iuD
mL
3.提出展望或期望 0zfh:O
表示对将来的期待或是鼓动读者采取行动,例: N9hs<b+N_
It is essential that effective measures should be taken to redress such inequality. umZy=KH
j
It is high time that we should urge an immediate end to this phenomenon. qYFOHu
4.强调意义 ?g
gl8bzA
从更高或更新的角度来强调上述论点的重要性或其深远的意义,例: 1y@d`k`t:
Admittedly,science has created atomic bombs and produced pervasive pollution.But it ;sd[Q01
has transformed the lives of millions of people. !$N^Ak5#
|O3wAxc3W
六.段落的写法 xl [3*K
U;QTA8|!&
(—)段落中的主题句 o1C1F}gxU
正文中的每个段落包含一个主题句(Topic sentence)。主题句概括全段意思,其他句子 iJ n<
则围绕主题句加以阐明、补充或论证。这种补充意义的句子称为支持句(Supporting sentence)。一般说来,主题句写在段落的开端,后面的支持句为主题句提供论证或细节。 xUl=N
例如: )H@"S]?7i"
Education is a third important area in which technology is separating us from others.From KZoIjK]
elementary schools to colleges,students spend more and more time sitting by themselves in <,!8xp7,~
front of computers.The computers give them feedback,while teachers spend more time pu#h:nb>88
tending the computers and less time interacting with their classes.A similar problem occurs D2N| A
in homes As more families buy computers,increasing numbers of students practice their math 3!E*h0$}
and reading skills with software programs instead of their friends,brothers ,sisters and their <q@/Yy32
parents. t;005]'Mp
例2: n;&08M5an}
Mao Zedong remains in important ways the center of the country’s moral universe. /+^7lQo\]
For example,we may see a fresh nationwide enthusiasm for Mao as China marked the '5xIisP
centenary of his birth last week... oz3N
8^M
The society abounds with stories of quick killings.An English teacher in Nanjing tells of a :/YHU3 ~Y
friend who made millions on the stock market in two weeks.A lawyer in Beijing.. o/0cd
段落中主题句必须写得简洁明了。例: Bgb~ Tz'
The new brochures are full of major printing errors. e4:,W+g,9
Three causes contributed to the problem at Plant X. 9N1Uv,OtB
(二)段落内部的一致性 ^h wF=
所谓一致性,是指在一段文章中,应该只说明一个问题或一个问题的某一方面; Hq<Sg4nz
或应该只叙述一件事情或一件事的某一阶段。也就是说,每段只能有一个中心 9*s''=
思想或主题,所有的支持句都要有助于发展主题句的中心思想,都要为中心思想 K1y]
服务。这种主题句和支持句在意义上的统一就是段落的一致性。 z[Sq7bbYO
例: `^FAD
Progress is gradually being made in the fight against cancer.In the early 1900s,few F)fCj^zL
cancer patients had any hope of long term survival.In the l930s,less than one in five cancer =QdHji/sB
victims lived more than 5 years.In the 1950s,the ratio was one in four.Currently the ratio >
ZR
CM
is down to one in three.The gain from l in 4 to 1 in 3 represents about 58,000 lives saved )?_x$GKY
each year. Xn:5pd;?B6
但是,如果我们在这个段落中加入诸如“It has been proved that smoking is a direct [=3f:>ssm
cause of lung cancer'’或“Heart disease is also increasing.”等句子,段落就缺乏一致性。 VtM:~|v
同时,在单句或复句的写作中,也要体现“一致性”的原则;要注意下列的问题: X8(H#Ef[
1.不要把无关的思想包含在一个句子中 ,orq*Wd
例:The mountain is six thousand feet high,and it is only 4 miles from the small airport,(and :A2{
the field is not a very large one,) but no plane has ever crashed on it. Cu2eMUGt
在此句中,括号中的内容与句子的主题无关,不该包含在此句中。 ~vL7$-:
2.避免使用过分复杂的句法结构和矫揉造作的修饰手法 ,[gu7z^|
例: The electric fan which she bought for her father,who complains about any Q4~/Tl;
temperature that exceeds 30 degrees centigrade and insists that he can’t stand the heat,arrived MxXf.iX&
today. %P3|#0yg0
Better:Her father complains about any temperature that exceeds 30 degrees centigrade and YgiLfz iT
insists that he can’t stand the heat.The electric fan she bought for him b\{34z
,
arrived yesterday. fRcs@yZnS
第一句使用了过多的定语、宾语从句,反而显得层次不清,中心不突出,改写成 Znrs
J1f:
两句后,意义显得清楚而自然。 K[,d9j`^
3.在同一句中,要尽量保持主语和语态的一致 .
adCTo
例: ]t2zwHo#
The peasants cut the wheat,and it is dried. 3y#U|&]{
Better:The peasants cut the wheat,and they dry it. @%FLT6MY
在并列句中,同一主语和语态最好贯彻到底。第一句改换主语并用了被动语态, T
O]wD^`
造成逻辑上的不一致。 1\t# *N
4.避免逻辑错误或意义模糊的句子 1')_^]
例: 2`Dqu"TWh
The bus conductor pushed the button to shut the door,but caught my left foot. {fd/:B 7T
Better:The bus conductor pushed the button to shut the door,which caught my left foot. )2pOCAjL2
原句的意思是“售票员关门夹住了我的脚,”第一句在逻辑意义上是讲不通的,应删 MBIlt
1P
去but,改用which,就表明是车门夹住了我的脚,意思就通顺了。 LMGo8%2I
综上所述,段落的一致性原则主要体现在以下两点: B@+&?%ub:
•每段的中心思想要明确,全段的句子都应该围绕说明一个问题; s^&Oh*SP*
•同一句子(单句及复句)的意义也应该突出,突出要说明的内容,去掉无关或多余的字句, {s{b
nU
同时要避免那些造成逻辑不合的词句。 x$SxGc~4gb
(三)段落内部及段落之间的连贯性(coherence) vC
[
uEx:
连贯性原则要求文章段落中各句前后衔接,条理清楚,使读者易于理解,连贯性 Yl$R$u)
由叙事的逻辑次序和使用转折语进行句子间和段落间的过渡来体现。 uY_vX\;67z
1.叙事的逻辑次序 @H83Ad
英文写作中常用的叙事的逻辑次序有以下几种。
t@#l0lu$
(1)按时间先后次序(chronological order) IG(1h+5R(
主要见于记叙文和说明文。例: Y[R;UJE`5

英文写作中,为了使文章所表达的意思更加连贯,经常需要通过过渡实现句子间、 }~+_|
段落间衔接。通常使用转折词过渡。根据意义要求,可使用不同的转折词。常用 +2Wijrn
的转折词有以下几种类型: <E1ngG
举例:for example,for instance,that is,to illustrate,specifically,as an illustration, <d]
t{M62W
once,such as i7|sVz=
●增补(addition):in addition(to),besides,also,moreover,furthermore,the third e;r?g67

●结论 (conclusion):to sum up,to conclude,in short,in a word, in brief,in conclusion,therefore,as has been noted (mentioned,said,stated) above M 0Vs9K=
除了上面提到的转折词,我们有时也可以使用代词(如he,she,it, you,they, l<dtc[
this,that,others)、同义词和重复关键词等手段来使得文章的段落之间、段落 z z2'h>
内部的句子之间互相衔接。 *sYvV,

在了解了英文作文的文章结构、段落写作这两方面的知识以及写法之后,考生 u3])_oj=
在写作中应该注意的第三个环节是句子和词语的写作技巧。 a~Nh6 x
(一)句子的写法 1b`WzoJgH
英语句子的形成主要根据结构搭建,和以意构(根据意义、逻辑时间等顺序安排 C)qy

(二)用词 CaqqH`/E4
英文写作中应注意用词的准确性和简洁性,要避免使用不必要的词或过时的表 Pt[ b;}
达方式。 P)rz%,VF+
1.系动词的用法 M~LYq
系动词的用法要注意以下两个问题: Z<W`5sop^
(1)在英文句子中,不宜过多地使用系动词。例: e%EE|
Wordy sentence:Plant A is successful in terms of production. zelM}/d
Improved sentence:Plant A produces well. vuO~^N]G
Wordy sentence: There appears to be a tendency on the part of investment bankers... 6):iu=/i/

Wordy sentence:There is no more space available. -$tf`
Improved sentence:No more space is available. b2G1@f.U
2.介词的用法 r9!,cs
介词的用法要注意以下三个问题: ZZJ<JdD
(1)不宜过多使用介词 =}m'qy
在写英文句子的时候,考生经常容易滥用介词。尤其是of这个介词。如果一个句子中 )F65sV{
的介词超过了4个,那么就必须多加注意了,例: s]Qo'q2
Wordy sentence:Central to our understanding Of the problem Of the organizational structure in L]#b=Y
the XYZ division Of the ABC Company is the chain Of command between the position Of the /\d@A B^5I
division vice president and the subordinate departments,because although all of them are under ( Qj;B)
this office,none Of them are directly connected Up with it. $
nHf0.V1
Improved sentence:The organizational problem at the ABC company’s XYZ division is Y:4/06I
centered in the unclear connection between the division vice—president and the subordinate departments. uE-|]QQo
(2)注意复合介词的用法,例: WIYWql>*
Wordy sentence: I am writing in order to list the potential issues in regard to the Russell b3l

1. Ever since the early 1980s, education on TV has been offering people the chance for an edu- -Yse^(^"s
cation. TV stations offer not only language courses, but also a number of other courses, such as nUpj+F#
trade, management, law, accounting, and finance. In fact, it has become a remarkable part
`WOoC
of China' s education system. .O1w-,=
If there were no education on TV, we wouldn't have the present economic growth, as to- LF!KP
day colleges and universities are too few to train the large number of professionals who are now m`-:j"]b$
playing important roles in the nation' s various careers. It is estimated that one out of four pro- jyW={%&
fessionals received some college education on TV. YGOkqI
Therefore, the government should make the education on TV more available to people on the one hand, and improve the teaching quality and testing system on the other hand so as to satisfy the urgent needs for more qualified professionals. >;,23X

Every person in the world has suffered failures in his or her pursuits. A scientist may have S?JCi=
failed many times in his research or experiment. A student may have failed on demanding tests. xIm2t~io
An athlete may have lost many games before becoming a champion. f|B\Y/*X
To the strong, failure can be the mother of success, because they know that their pursuits sx=1pnP9`
are something unknown to them and difficult to achieve. There are not discouraged, instead, y4jiOhF<d
they will draw lessons from both their own failures and others' successes. In this sense, each of W`9{RZ'
their failures is a step further toward their final desired targets. g]L8Jli
In order to succeed in our pursuit we should not feel defeated in the face of temporary failure, even if it' s hard to bear. Such confidence is a kind of force that carries us through. F]6G<6T[

A modernized society means it can offer the highest productivity and it has many well - educated people capable of advanced technology and management. That' s why science and technology are the first productivity. iu=Mq|t0
In fact, a nation' s education is the base for her scientific and technological capabilities, be- elGBX

Nowadays, ads generally are constructive to both manufacturers and consumers in China. Pzzzv^+
With ads, producers can become more popular, as a result, they will receive more orders and jG`PyIgw
contracts, and consumers can purchase according to what ads say. GPh;r7xg6
However, some ads are too deceitful not to be ridiculous. A case in point is a advertisement h='&^1
of a drug that declares on TV that the drug has become an absolute remedy for AIDS. It' s well- <(Ar[Rp
known that, in our world so far, there' s no official report of a discovery of the cure for the fatal C<a&]dN/
disease. Actually, various consumers across the country complain of being taken in by such ads. 5Xxdm-0
In this light, governments at all levels should exercise more rigid examination of ads before they are shown to the public. Ou4hAm91s

English is difficult for Chinese to learn. So I, like all the other English learners, have met many difficulties during the past seven years in learning English. But I managed to overcome dRzeHuF92
them and made greater progress. [AFR \{
The spelling and meaning of words can be said to be the first difficulty I met as a beginner. But I found out my own way now to deal with them. As to spelling, I never copied a new word again and again to remember it, but tried to find its relevance to the sound. In fact, so long as I can read the word out, I can write it out. As to the meaning, I rarely recite its Chinese x4kQG
e(
translation, but often put the word into the sentence to learn its meaning. Moreover, if I often use a ehr\lcS<
word, I have no problem with its spelling and meaning. After all, we are learning English in :dipk,b?n
order to speak it, or to use it in other ways. m=h/A xW
Grammar and idioms may be another difficulty, but I have also mastered them. I have not jt6_1^
read lots of grammar books. I know only some ordinary grammatical rules. But I spent much )Az0.}
time reading articles written by native speakers. By doing so, I came to perceive感到"a sense of the English language." I began to feel which sentence is "good English" and which is not. Es}`SIe/
Finally, I want to say that overcoming all these difficulties requires perseverance. Every day the past seven years, I have spent at least an hour on English. I believe this is an important reason why I am able to make progress in learning English. A?n5;m

The bicycle is the most common means of transport in our country. There are several rea- ,tZL"
sons. First, most people are not rich enough to buy a car. Because a bicycle is not expensive, wU'+4N".
almost every family can afford it. Second, China has a large population and the traffic is heavy. 'e<8j
The bicycle has the advantage of being small. A road, which can hold only two cars side by side, mmjWLrhlu
can allow more than ten bicycles. Finally, people like to ride on a bicycle to school, to work and =`(W^&|
to travel. It' s so pleasant and it does good for people' s health. >u0XV "g$
Compared with a car, a bicycle has disadvantages and advantages. For instance, a bicycle is not fit for a long trip, but a car is. A person who sits all day in a car might get fat and un- R9- mq;u+
healthy, while a person on a bicycle becomes healthy. x5g&?2[
A bicycle is so popular in China that it will remain so for a long time. So many things are to be done to make cars popular in China. Even when the time comes, bicycle will also be welcome. ,V5fvHPH)8

Almost everybody likes sports. One reason is that sports provide us with an entertaining 3e-E/6zH6
form of recreation. While participating in a sports activity, we can enjoy ourselves and relax. In wLI1qoDM
addition, we enjoy sports as a social activity because they give us an opportunity to be with our :>ca).cjac
friends. Finally, sports allow us to forget about our work and escape from the monotony of everyday life. k]-Q3V
Different people like different sports. For instance, many men prefer competitive sports N2j^fZd_
such as basketball, tennis, and soccer. Women, however, often enjoy less strenuous activities qM3NQ8Rm
such as walking, swimming, or dance classes. Older people usually prefer slower, more peace- )iC@n8f7o
ful activities like walking. Hv'
OO@z
As for me, I enjoy energetic, noncompetitive forms of sports. My favorite sport is jogging Mg}/gO%o
in the mornings. Several days a week I get up at 6:00 a.m. to jog about two miles. I am als0 q TWQ!
fond of aerobic dancing, a popular form of exercise for women in the United States. These types }{PG^ Fc<P
of sports are beneficial in reviving my body and relaxing my mind. 9zx
