一. 应试指导篇
A. 应试准备
写作部分的目的在于测试考生应用英语进行书面表达的一般能力。要提高书面表达能力,就必须多读、多背、多模仿、多练习。多读、多背对解决语言知识的问题非常有效。学习一种语言,在某种意义上就是一系列的记忆和练习活动。
首先,熟记是学习外语的关键之一。考生在准备考试过程中的背记,主要包括四个方面:
1) 背记常用的单词和词组,了解这些单词和词组的语言环境;
2) 背记常用的过渡词与句型;
3) 背记一些比较典型的范文;
4) 背记读过的文章或者看过的电影中一些写得好而且有意思的段落。
其次,多模仿、多练习非常有助于考生掌握写作技巧。为此,考生应多做句子、段落与短文的汉译英练习,同时练习写文章摘要,然后再练习写短文。
B. 注意事项
1) 合理分配时间。写作部分的时间约为35分钟,一般来说,时间可以分配如下:4-6分钟构思,23-27分钟写作,2-4分钟检查。
2) 要使用有把握的词汇、短语、句型和引用语。
3) 要合理布局,一般分3-5段,每段包含3-5句。
4) 要正确使用标点符号,避免残缺句和融合句。注意单词的拼写和字母的大、小写等。
5) 合理使用过渡词,使文章有较强的过渡性。
C. 思路启迪
就应用文的写作而言,根据考试大纲的要求,考生所写篇章在格式与语域方面必须恰当贴切。对目标读者完全会产生预期的效果。指在书面和口头表达中根据不同的交际对象,所采用的话语方式,即正式、一般、非正式的话语等。
考生在平时准备或考试时应该注意的重要方面有:
一:正式语体(书卷语)、一般语体(共核)、非正式语体(口语体)。在词汇层次、短语层次、句型层次和篇章层次都有区别。考生使用语言时应注意所使用语言的贴切性。
二:正式语体词的使用范围较窄,而且一般只在书面语中出现,若出现在口语中,则有讽刺、调侃或幽默的语用效果。考生需要按照正式或共核语体写作。
三:中性语体成分的使用范围比较广:既可以出现在正式语体中,也可以出现在一般介绍或叙述性语篇中,还可能出现在口语中。就这一类词汇的特点,英语的中性语体和口语、俚语等词汇一般都比较短小,尤其是后者,因为短,使用起来才方便,长了拗口。
四:考生在写作应用文时必须判断篇章的接受者与自己的亲密程度、接受者的身份高低、交际场合的正式程度、自己作为作者的身份等。综合考虑之后,再做出文体的判断。之后在选择恰当贴切的篇章组织、句型、词汇等。这样才能取得较好的分数。
五:文章组织时,要注意文章的一致性的原则:段落中的各个句子必须围绕一个主题(一个内容)展开;短文中的各个层次则围绕短文的主题,从不同侧面深入阐述。保证句子的统一性和连贯性是组词的基本要求。句子的统一性和连贯性是相辅相成的,最简单的解释是,意思完整,主次分明,前后连贯。从语义上看,句子各部分应该是紧密联系在一起,表达一个完整的意思;从语法角度来看,正确的句子应该是结构严谨,关系一致,语序正确;从修辞角度来年,好的句子应该是中心突出,逻辑性强,准确简练。如果一个句子表达的意思不完整,主次关系不明确,逻辑关系混乱,那么这个句子的统一性和连贯性就遭到了破坏,句子就有语病,读者也就无法了解作者的本意。
二. 写作技巧篇
