重新审题
Examine the topic again, and solve the problems below after discussion. 议论文 (Argumentative Writing ) Style: _______________________ Present Tense:_______________________ First and third Person:______________________ Three parts Structure:____________________ • 开头— 问题呈现 • 主体— 正方观点论述+ 反方观点论述 • 结尾— 陈述个人观点
5. 汉语式英语表达
如:More depend on the private tutort school. 可改为:Depending too much on the private tutors will make them lazy at school. 又如:Students in favor of it are more and more. 可改为:There are more and more students in favor of it. 写作指导:在英语学习中,汉语有一定的辅助作用, 但是也要避免汉语对英语表达的负面影响,即不要 用汉语思维来学习英语,也不要用汉语语序来编造 英语句子。在造句时,要顾及到英语句子的结构和 表达习惯,不能照汉语的语序逐词拼凑。
Step V.
让表达更精彩
1.句子巧整合 如:We discussed whether it is necessary for middle school students to have a private tutor. I’m writing to tell you about the discussion. 可改为:I’m writing to tell you about the discussion we’ve had about whether it is necessary for middle school students to have a private tutor.
4. 词或短语使用不当
如:Many students are not in favor of inviting private tutors. 可改为:Many students are not in favor of employing / having private tutors. 又如:Students should learn by heart. 可改为:Students should concentrate on / devote all our energies to studies. 写作指导:之所以出现此类错误,主要是学生往往 只注意了英语词汇和短语的汉语词义,而忽视了其 词性及用法。因此,要求学生在平时学习词汇和短 语时,一定要关注词性、结构和习惯用法等,要减 少汉语对词汇运用的干扰。
3. 缺乏连词
如:They think what should be learnt will be taught at school , the cost of paying a tutor is a burden of the parents. 可改为:They think what should be learnt will be taught at school, and the cost of paying a tutor is a burden of the parents. 写作指导:作文中,很多同学偏爱逗号而根本不理 会句子的整体结构,出现了用逗号来连接句子的现 象。学生一定要牢记:英语中,逗号没有连接的功 能。
Step II.
1. Person
难点突破
写此类议论文时,作者(学生)一定要站 在客观的立场上来写,归纳介绍整体讨论 的情况,因此应采用第三人称。行文中可 用they, students, the others等。
2. Express personal opinions 个人观点大致分为三类
个人观点大致分为三类:
I’m writing to tell you about the discussion we’ve had about whether it is necessary for middle school students to have a private tutor. 40% of the students think it necessary to do so. In their opinion, since a private tutor teachers only one student at a time, he can easily find the student’s learning problems and a solution to them. Besides, the student will study attentively and efficiently since they pay money to learn from the tutor. However, most of the students (60%) don’t think so. In their opinion, what should be learnt will be taught by their teachers at school anyway. They also believe that the students may not work hard at school because they know they can always depend on the private tutor after class. Finally, the cost of paying a tutor is a economic burden to the parents. Having a private tutor has both advantages and disadvantages. We’d better think twice.
