第十五讲 高分作文的写作模式

同学们， 大家好。
　　上一讲我们了解了四六级写作的一般要求，那么怎样才能达到要求，将自己的水平充分发挥出来，取得写作上的优异成绩呢？今天，我们一起来探讨一下，四六级写作的方法和技巧，研究一下四六级高分作文的模式。

一、 四六级写作技法和策略
1． 对应法
　　由于四六级写作都是提纲式写作，有时，我们可以采用对应法按照中文提纲分别写成三段。
　　如：96年6月份考题：
　　提纲：1） 有人认为淡水是取之不尽的。（雨水、河水、井水……）
2） 实际上淡水是非常紧缺的。（人口增加、工业用水增加）
3） 我们应该怎么办？

　　　　　　　　　　　　Global Shortage of Fresh Water
　　Generally, people think that fresh water is inexhaustible. Every year there is enough rain. And there is plenty of fresh water in the rivers and lakes. What's more, we have a lot of underground water.
　　Actually, fresh water is in a short supply. Due to the rapid population increase, fresh water consumption remains great. Besides, with the development of industry, more water is needed. Moreover, a lot of our rivers and lakes have been so polluted that water from them is undrinkable.
　　We must take some measures to solve the problem of water shortage. First, population growth should be slowed down to reduce fresh water demand. Second, pollution should be controlled to purify fresh water in the rivers and lakes. What is most important, we should cherish every drip of water in our daily life.

　　再如：95年1 月份试题：
　　提纲：1） 有人认为钱是幸福之本（source of happiness）
　　　　　2） 有人认为金钱是万恶之源(root of evil)
　　　　　3） 我的看法。
　　Some think that money is the source of happiness. Once they have money, they will enjoy everything. They can use the money they have to buy, a beautiful house or even a wife.
　　Some others think that money is the root of all evil. Due to the greed for money, people will do various kinds of evil things, such as stealing, robbing or even murder. Money can easily change a kind, honest man into a cruel, cunning woe.
　　In my opinion, both of the above-mentioned viewpoints go to an extreme. Money itself is neither good nor evil. It all depends on how we look at it. We can not deny the importance of money in the modern society. Meanwhile, we should not ignore the fact that something can not be bought by money, such as friendship, true love and so on.
　　这两例都是采用了对应写作方式，将提示中的三句分别扩展成三段，三段之间相互衔接，构成一个完整的篇章。

2．调整法
　　尽管是提纲式写作，提纲所提示的只是文章所要包括的主要内容，却不是文章的结构模式，一般情况下，同学们应根据英语文章的类型，重新安排文章。如上面有关"钱"的一个写作，按照英语的表达习惯，最好是加上一个引子。
　　What is money? To this question, different people hold differently. Some thing money is the source of happiness, while some regard it as the root of all evils. As far as I am concerned, they both have their reasons
　　Those who consider money as the source of happiness argue that money means massive house, beautiful clothes, or luxurious cars, and can enable them and their families live comfortably. They even believe that money can bring power, friendship, and love. But due to the temptation of money, there are many people who become thieves, robbers, or murderers. It is also out of the greed for money that some officials forget their duty and cause enormous losses to the country, so some people think that money is the root of all evil and suggest that we keep away from money.
　　In fact, money is merely a medium of exchange. It may bring you happiness; it may lead you to a life of crime. Whether it is good or bad depends on how it is used.
