开头万能公式:

  1. 开头万能公式一:名人名言

  有人问了,“我没有记住名言,怎么办?尤其是英语名言?”,很好办:编!

  原理:我们看到的东西很多都是创造出来的,包括我们欣赏的文章也是,所以尽管编,但是一定要听起来很有道理!而且没准将来我们就是名人呢!对吧?

  经典句型:

  A proberb says, “ You are only young once.” (适用于已记住的名言)

  It goes without saying that we cannot be young forever. (适用于自编名言)

  更多经典句型:

  As everyone knows, No one can deny that…

  2. 开头万能公式二:数字统计

  原理:要想更有说服力,就应该用实际的数字来说明。

  不妨试用下面的句型:

  According to a recent survey, about 78.9% of the college students wanted to further their study after their graduation. 



  更多句型:

  A recent statistics shows that …

  

  结尾万能公式:

  1. 结尾万能公式一:如此结论

  说完了,毕竟要归纳一番,“总而言之”之类的话。比如下面的例子:

   Obviously(此为过渡短语), we can draw the conclusion that good manners arise from politeness and respect for others.

  如果读者很难“显而见之 ”,但说无妨。

  更多过渡短语:

  to sum up, in conclusion, in brief, on account of this, thus

  更多句型:

  Thus, it can be concluded that…, Therefore, we can find that…

  2 . 结尾万能公式二:如此建议

  

  Obviously, it is high time that we took some measures to solve the problem.

  这里的虚拟语气用得很经典。

  更多句型:

  Accordingly, I recommend that some measures be taken.

   Consequently, to solve the problem, some measures should be taken.

  

  写作的“七项基本原则”:

  一、 长 短 句原则

  工作还得一张一驰呢,老让读者读长句,累死人!写一个短小精辟的句子,相反,却可以起到画龙点睛的作用。而且如果我们把短句放在段首或者段末,也可以揭示主题:

  As a creature, I eat; as a man, I read. Although one action is to meet the primary need of my body and the other is to satisfy the intellectual need of mind, they are in a way quite similar.

  如此可见,长短句结合,抑扬顿挫,岂不爽哉?牢记!

  强烈建议:在文章第一段(开头)用一长一短,且先长后短;在文章主体部分,要先用一个短句解释主要意思,然后在阐述几个要点的时候采用先短后长的句群形式,定会让主体部分妙笔生辉!文章结尾一般用一长一短就可以了。

  二、 主 题 句原则

  国有其君,家有其主,文章也要有其主。否则会给人造成“群龙无首”之感!各位一定要写一个主题句,放在文章的开头(保险型)或者结尾,让读者一目了然。

  

  To begin with, you must work hard at your lessons and be fully prepared before the exam(主题句). Without sufficient preparation, you can hardly expect to answer all the questions correctly.

  三、 一 二 三原则

  1) first, second, third, last

  2)firstly, secondly, thirdly, finally

  3)the first, the second, the third, the last

  4)in the first place, in the second place, in the third place, lastly

  5)to begin with, then, furthermore, finally(强烈推荐)

  6)to start with, next, in addition, finally(强烈推荐)

  7)first and foremost, besides, last but not least(强烈推荐)

  8)most important of all, moreover, finally

  9)on the one hand, on the other hand(适用于两点的情况)

  10)for one thing, for another thing(适用于两点的情况)

  建议:不仅仅在写作中注意,平时说话的时候也应该条理清楚!

四、 短语优先原则

  写作时,尤其是在考试时,如果使用短语,有两个好处:其一、用短语会使文章增加亮点。其二、关键时刻思维短路,只有凑字数,怎么办?用短语是一个办法!比如:

  I cannot bear it.

  可以用短语表达:I cannot put up with it.

  I want it.

  可以用短语表达:I am looking forward to it.

  这样字数明显增加,表达也更准确。

  五、 多实少虚原则

  原因很简单,写文章还是应该写一些实际的东西,不要空话连篇。这就要求一定要多用实词,少用虚词。我这里所说的虚词就是指那些比较大的词。比如我们说一个很好的时候,不应该之说nice这样空洞的词,应该使用一些诸如generous, humorous, interesting, smart, gentle, warm-hearted, hospital 之类的形象词。再比如:

  走出房间, general的词是:walk out of the room

  小姐走出房间应该说:sail out of the room

  小孩走出房间应该说:dance out of the room

  老人走出房间应该说:stagger out of the room

  所以多用实词,少用虚词,文章将会大放异彩!

  六、 多变句式原则

  1)加法(串联)

  都希望写下很长的句子,可就是怕写错,怎么办,最保险的写长句的方法就是这些,可以在任何句子之间加 and, 但最好是前后的句子又先后关系或者并列关系。比如说:

  I enjor music and he is fond of playing guitar.

  如果是二者并列的,我们可以用一个超级句式:

  Not only the fur coat is soft, but it is also warm.

  其它的短语可以用:

  besides, furthermore, likewise, moreover

  2)转折(拐弯抹角)

  The car was quite old, yet it was in excellent condition.

  The coat was thin, but it was warm.

  更多的短语:

  despite that, still, however, nevertheless, in spite of, despite, notwithstanding

  3)因果(so, so, so)

  昨天在街上我看到了一个女孩,然后我主动搭讪,然后我们去咖啡厅,然后我们认识了,然后我们成为了朋友…可见,讲故事的时候我们总要追求先后顺序,先什么,后什么,所以然后这个词就变得很常见了。其实这个词表示的是先后或因果关系!

  The snow began to fall, so we went home.

  更多短语:

  then, therefore, consequently, accordingly, hence, as a result, for this reason, so that

  4)失衡句(头重脚轻,或者头轻脚重)

  适当地运用主语从句,表语从句,宾语从句的变形。

  举例:This is what I can do.

  Whether he can go with us or not is not sure.

  同样主语、宾语、表语可以改成如下的复杂成分:

  When to go, Why he goes away…

  5)附加(多此一举)

  如果有了老婆,总会遇到这样的情况,当你再讲某个人的时候,她会插一句说,我昨天见过他;或者说,就是某某某,如果把老婆的话插入到我们的话里面,那就是定语从句和同位语从句或者是插入语。

  The man whom you met yesterday is a friend of mine.

  I don’t enjoy that book you are reading.

  Mr liu, our oral English teacher, is easy-going.

  其实很简单,同位语--要解释的东西删除后不影响整个句子的构成;定语从句—借用之前的关键词并且用其重新组成一个句子插入其中,但是whom or that 关键词必须要紧跟在先行词之前。

  6)排比(排山倒海句)

  文学作品中最吸引人的地方莫过于此,如果非要让你的文章更加精彩的话,那么我希望你引用一个个的排比句,一个个得对偶句,一个个的不定式,一个个地词,一个个的短语,如此表达将会使文章有排山倒海之势!

  Whether your tastes are modern or traditional, sophisticated or simple, there is plenty in London for you.

  Nowadays, energy can be obtained through various sources such as oil, coal, natural gas, solar heat, the wind and ocean tides.

  We have got to study hard, to enlarge our scope of knowledge, to realize our potentials and to pay for our life. (气势恢宏)

  要想写出如此气势恢宏的句子非用排比不可!

  七、 挑战极限原则

  既然是挑战极限,必然是比较难的,但是并非不可攀!

  原理:在学生的文章中,很少发现诸如独立主格的句子,其实也很简单,只要花上5分钟的时间看看就可以领会,它就是分词的一种特殊形式,分词要求主语一致,而独立主格则不然。比如:

  The weather being fine, a large number of people went to climb the Western Hills.

   Africa is the second largest continent, its size being about three times that of China.

    

  文章主体段落三大杀手锏:

  一、举实例

  思维短路,举实例!提出一个观点,举实例!提出一个方案,举实例!而且者也是我们揭示一个观点最好的方式,任何情况下,只要我们无法继续文章,不管三七二十一,尽管举例子!

  In order to attract more customers, advertisers have adopted every possible stimulative factor in making ads, such as sound, light, colours, cartoon films and human performance. For instance, to advertise a certain food, advertisers will ask an actor or actress to sit at a table and devour the seemingly delicious food while they fime him or her.

  更多句型:

  To take … as an example, One example is…, Another example is…, for example

  二、做比较

  方法:写完一个要点,比较与之相似的;又写完一个要点,再比较与之相反的;

  世界上没有同样的指纹,没有相同的树叶,文章亦同,只有通过比较,你才会发现二者的相同点(through comparison)和不同点(through contrast)。下面是一些短语:

  相似的比较:

  in comparison, likewise, similarly, in the same manner

  相反的比较:

  on the other hand, conversely, whereas, while, instead, nevertheless, in contrast, on the contrary, compared with …, …

  三、换言之

  没话说了,可以换一句话再说,让你的文章在多一些字,或者文邹邹地说,是让读者更充分的理解你的观点。

  实际就是重复重复再重复!下面的句子实际上就三个字 I love you!

  I am enthusiastic about you. That is to say, I love you.

  I am wild about you. In other words, I have fallen in love with you.

  或者上面我们举过的例子:

  I cannot bear it.

  可以用短语表达:I cannot put up with it.

  因此可以这样说:I cannot bear it. That is to say, I cannot put up with it or I am fed up with it.

  更多短语:in more difficult language, in simpler words, put it more simply
