大学英语四级写作全攻略--问题解决型写作思路问题解决型作文,亦可称为:解决问题型作文。
一般在首段现象描述,之后进行问题分析(原因或危害),最后提出建议措施, 例如:2010年6月Topic:Due Attention Should Be Given To Spelling.1. 如今不少学生在英语学习中不重视拼写2. 出现这种情况的原因3. 为了改变这种状况,我认为…按照功能段落的概念对作文进行备考,该类作文需要背诵四种功能段落:现象描述、问题(危害)分析、原因分析、建议措施。
学习重点是思路和表达,请各位考生在背诵的基础上灵活使用。
1.1现象描述段(正反)现实生活中的现象总是有好坏之分,四级考试中现象描述段也可以分为两种:正面现象和负面现象。
如果是负面现象描述,就等同于描述一个需要大家关注并解决的问题;而正面现象就是在宣扬或赞美它。
因此本段需要学习描述正面和负面的词汇和表达。
现象描述可以写三个内容:引出现象+具体描述+总结。
接下来逐一介绍各个功能句式的写法和用途。
