英语写作提分的诀窍

    英语写作提分的诀窍

 　　1、灵活改变句子开头

　　在通常情况下，英语句子的排列方式为“主语+谓语+宾语”，即主语位于句子开头。但若根据情况适当改变句子的开头方式，比如使用倒状语或以状语开头等，会使文章增强表现力。

　　· You can do it well only in this way.

　　→ Only in this way can you do it well.

　　只有这样你才能把它做好。

　　· A young woman sat by the window.

　　→ By the window sat a young woman.

　　窗户边坐着一个年轻妇女。

　　2、避免重复使用词语

　　为了使表达更生动，更富表现力，同学们在写作时应尽量避免重复使用同一词语来表示同一意思，尤其是一些老生常谈的词语。如有的同学一看到“喜欢”二字，就会立刻想起like，事实上，英语中表示类似意思的词和短语很多，如 love, enjoy, prefer, appreciate, be fond of, care for等。

　　· I like reading while my brother likes watching television.

　　→ I like reading while my brother enjoys watching television.

　　我喜欢看书，而我的兄弟却喜欢看电视。

　　3、合理使用省略句

　　合理恰当地使用省略句，不仅可以使文章精练、简洁，而且会使文章更具文采和可读性。

　　· He may be busy. If he’s busy, I’ll call later. If he is not busy, can I see him now?

　　→ He may be busy. If so, I’ll call later. If not, can I see him now?

　　他可能很忙，要是这样，我以后再来拜访。要是不忙，我现在可以见他吗?

　　· If the weather is fine, we’ll go. If it is not fine, we’ll not go.

　　→ If the weather is fine, we’ll go. If not, not.

　　如果天气好，我们就去;如果天气不好，我们就不去了。

　　· She could have applied for that job, but she didn’t do so.

　　→ She could have applied for that job, but she didn’t.

　　她本可申请这份工作的，但她没有。

　　4、运用非谓语结构

　　非谓语结构通常被认为是一种高级结构，适当运用非谓语结构，会给人一种熟练驾驭语言的印象。

　　· When he heard the news, they all jumped for joy.

　　→ Hearing the news, they all jumped for joy.

　　听了这消息他们都高兴得跳了起来。

　　· As I didn’t know her address, I wasn’t able to get in touch with her.

　　→ Not knowing her address, I wasn’t able to get in touch with her.

　　由于不知道她的地址，我没法和她联系。

　　5、结合使用长、短句

　　在英语写作中，过多地使用长句或过多地使用短句都不好。正确的做法是，根据实际情况在文章中交替使用长句与短语，使文章显得错落有致，这样不仅使文章在形式上增加美感，而且使文章读起来铿锵有力。

　　At noon we had a picnic lunch in the sunshine. Then we had a short rest. Then we began to play happily. We sang and danced. Some told stories. Some played chess.

　　→ At noon we had a picnic lunch in the sunshine. After a short rest, we had great fun singing and dancing, telling jokes and playing chess.

　　中午我们晒着太阳吃野餐。休息一会儿后，我们唱的唱歌，跳的跳舞，还有的讲笑话、下棋，大家玩得很开心。

　　6、使用短语代替单词

　　· He has decided to be a teacher when he grows up.

　　→ He has made up his mind to be a teacher when he grows up.

　　他已决定长大了当老师。

　　· He doesn't like music.

　　→ He doesn't care much for music.

　　他不大喜欢音乐。

　　· He told me that the question was now under discussion.

　　→ He told me that the question was now being discussed.

　　他告诉我问题现正正在讨论中。

　　7、套用某些固定表达

　　· He was very tired. He couldn’t walk any farther.

　　→ He was too tired to walk any farther.

　　他太累了，不能再往前走了。

　　· The film was very interesting. Both the teachers and the students liked it.

　　→ The film was so interesting that both the teachers and the students liked it.

　　这电影很有趣，学生和老师都很喜欢。

　　· Your son is old. He can look after himself now.

　　→ Your son is old enough to look after himself now.

　　你的儿子已经长大，可以自己照顾自己了。

　　8、使用地道英语

　　· Don't worry. Be bold and try it, and you'll learn it soon.

　　→Don't worry. Just go for it, and you'll get it soon.

　　别担心，大胆试一试，你很快就会学会的。

　　· Thank you for playing with us.

　　→Thank you for sharing the time with us.

　　谢谢你陪我玩。

　　9、综合使用“高级”结构

　　· We had to stand there to catch the offender.

　　→ What we had to do was (to) stand there, trying to catch the offender.

　　我们所能做的只是站在那儿，设法抓住违章者。

　　· If her pronunciation is not better than her teacher’s, it is at least as good as her teacher’s.

　　→ Her pronunciation is as good as, if not better than, her teacher’s.

　　如果她的语音不比她的老师好的话，至少也不会比她老师的差。

　　10、引用名言警句点缀

　　在写作时根据实际情况恰当地用上一两句名言警句来点缀文章，不仅使文章显得有深度、有智慧，而且会让文章在评分中上一个“得分档次”。
