《四级写作概述.pptVIP

文章的构成：第一节 文章开头 一般来说，在大学英语四级考试的写作中，一篇好的文章都由文章开头、文章主体及文章结尾三大部分组成。然而，许多考生在写作中往往忽视文章的开头，这种现象在提纲式作文和图表作文中表现尤为突出。据笔者统计，从1990年至今的29套大学英语四级考试的作文题中，只有一次是段首句作文，两次图表作文，三次书信作文，其余的全部是提纲式作文。而从体裁来看，它们均属于议论文。由此可见，写好议论文是何等的重要。下面笔者主要介绍几种议论文开头的方法，以方便考生平时背诵及练习写作时查找、使用。 1．开门见山法 (1) 现在许多人谈论最多的问题…。他们抱怨说…。 ( One of the most popular topics many people talk about now is …) (2) 目前，我们面临的严重问题之一是… ( One of the serious problems facing us at present is …) (3) 最近，…问题已引起公众的广泛注意。（Recently the problem of … has been brought to public attention. (4) 当被问及当今社会最大的问题是什么时， 许多人认为… (When asked about the biggest problem today, many people say…) (5) 现在许多人讨论的热门话题之一是… (One of the hottest topics many people talk about now is …) (6) 最近，下岗工人成为人们议论的焦点。 (Recently the problem of the laid-off workers has been brought into focus/brought to public attention.) 2．引用不同或错误观点法 (1) 人们普遍认为…。他们觉得…。但我认为…。 (It is commonly believed that…. They argue that… . But I doubt that…) (2) 当论及…时，一些人认为…, 另一些人却认为… (When it comes to …, some people believe that … Others argue that …) (3) 对…人们的态度各不同。 (Different people hold different attitudes toward …) (4) 人们对…的观点因人而异。有些人认为…。 然而其他人却认为… (People’s views on … vary from person to person. Some hold that … However, others believe that …) (5) 人们普遍存在一种误解，认为… (There is a common misconception among people that …) (6) 或许，是该重新审视…态度的时候了。 (Perhaps it is time to reexamine the attitude that …) 3. 引用被普遍接受的观点或事实法 (1) 随着人们生活水平的提高，…变得越了来越普及了。 (With the development of people’s living standard, … is becoming more and more popular.) (2) 随着科学技术的发展，越来越多的人认为…。 (With the development of science and technology, more and more people believe that …) (3) 任何事情都有两方面，… 也不例外。它既有好的一面，也有不好的一面。(Everything has two sides and … is not an exception. It has both advantages and disadvantages.) (4) 虽然普遍的观点是…，但最近的一项研究显示… (Although the popular idea is that … a recent study shows that …) (5) 最近一项调查表明…。所以有些人认为…，另一些人却不这样认为。
