第4篇:英语写作常用句型

什么样的作文才是优秀作文呢?高分段的作文和低分段的作文到底区别在哪里呢?根据全国大学英语

四、六级考试写作部分的阅卷精神,要判为高分(14分)的作文,除满足切题、表达思想清楚、文字通顺、基本上无语言错误等要求外,还必须有“闪光点”。所谓的“闪光点”是指文中的某些句子漂亮、地道,能体现考生较高的驾驭语言的能力。由于现阶段我国以培养学生能力为主的语言教学尚处于起步阶段,外语学习环境还有待改善,因此,要在短期提高学生的写作能力必须有一定的技巧。本章所编写的英语写作常用句型是给学生输入大量惯用的经典、地道的英语句子,供学生模仿和学用。众所周知,语言学习的过程本身就是一个模仿的过程这里所罗列的几百个句型包括了大学英语和研究生英语入学考试题型和文体。考生在熟悉这些句型后,考试时就能信手拈来,为己所用,写出有“闪光点”、句式有变化的高分作文。

7.1文章开头常用句型

万事开头难,写作也莫不如此。正如英语谚语所说,好的开端等于成功的一半(A good beginning is half-done)。加之在阅卷时,文章的开头就是你给阅卷老师的第一印象,因此,掌握好文章开头的技巧显得十分重要。

7.1.1说明现象的常用句型

任何事物的发生与发展都属于某种社会现象或倾向。文章开头时直截了当的提出这种现象,然后进行说明或评论。这种开头方法开门见山,使读者一目了然 。

(1) Recently the phenomenon ( problem , issue ) of „ has aroused considerable concern . (近来,„„现象/问题已引起了)

(2) Recently the phenomenon ( question ,problem ) of „ has been brought to public attention. (3) One of the pressing (biggest) problems facing our society today is……

(8) In the past few years, there has been a dramatic growth (decline) in……

(9) Whenever you see (find) „ ,you cannot help being astonished ( surprised) by „ (每当你看到/发现„„,你会不禁为„„感到惊讶不已。)

7.1.2阐述对立观点的常用句型

在写作中,当作者要对某个问题提出自己的观点看法时,一般常在文章开头引出人们对所给出问题的不同看法。这种开头方法常用于对某个问题进行争论的议论文体。

(1)When asked about… , the vast majority of people think (believe, say) that …;But other people think (believe, regard, say) that …(当问及„„的时候,绝大多数人认为/说„„。但也有人认为/说„„)

(2)When it comes to …, some people think (believe) that…; Others argue (claim) that the opposite is true. There is probably some truth in both statement, but…(当谈到„„时,有些人认为/相信„„;另一些人却持相反的观点。这两种观点也许都有点道理,但是„„)

(3)There is a much controversy (discussion) nowadays about the problem (issue) of … Those who criticize (oppose, object to) argue that… They believe that…But people who favor (advocate)…, on the other hand, claim (assert) that…(现在围绕„„问题正展开热烈的争论/讨论。那些批评/反对的人认为„„;另一方面,那些赞同/提倡这个„„的人却认为„„)

(4)These days we often hear about…They claim (argue, say) that…But is it true? Close analysis (examination) doesn’t bear out the claim (argument) .(最近,我们经常听到关于„„他们声称„„。果真如此吗?仔细分析一下,就证明这种观点站

英语写作常用句型 不住脚。

(5)Now a lot of people believe that…But although…, there is no (little) evidence that…(现在许多人都认为„„尽管„„,却没有证据表明„„)

7.1.3用引用法开头的常用句型

在写作中,所谓的引用就是用人们熟悉的名人名言,常用的谚语、习语、警句等作为文章的开头。这样的开头既生动、富有哲理,又一下子点明了文章的主题,能起到引人入胜的效果。

(1)One of the great men (writers, philosophers, scientists) once said (remarked) that… If this is the case , then the present situation (view , attitude) should make us wonder whether…(有一位伟人/作家/哲学家/科学家曾经说过„„如果是这样的话,目前的趋势/观点应使我们沉思,是否„„)
