cet4作文写作步骤及技巧

CET-4 作文写作步骤及技巧 提纲式作文是历年四、六级考试中最常见的题型，它要求考生根据给出的题目和提纲，确 定文章的中心思想，然后紧紧围绕中心思想展开论述，表达提纲的主旨。它的优点是提纲 既体现了文章的层次，又规定了各段大体的内容，为考生提供了一条思路，稍加思索、计 划、整理就可成文。但缺点是如果审题不当，反而容易丢分。另外，它的限定性较大，不 理解提纲所展现的内容或词汇，就会感到难以下笔。 一、步骤和技巧： 1 写好提纲式作文的关键是认真审题和分析所给的提纲，认清题目和提纲之间的关系， 然后确定文章的主题、内容以及文体。 2 每一个提纲可以作为文章的一个段落层次，段落的展开围绕提纲的中心和内容，不 能偏离，也不能任意增减。 3 提纲只是对文章的提示和概括，不是主题句。这需要根据提纲的性质，写出完整的、 体现提纲主旨的句子，使之成为主题句。然后围绕主题句进行扩展。 4 收集材料支持主题句。材料可以是事实、例证、亲身经历、名人名言、谚语警句等。 应当注意的是，所选材料要与文章的主题相符，即要“扣题” 。同时要具有典型性，能充分 说明问题。在有多个例证的段落中，还要注意各个例证之间的连贯性。 二、审题和构思： 根据下题写一篇不少于 100 词的作文： My View on Job-hopping 1）有些人喜欢始终从事一种工作，因为 2）有些人喜欢经常换工作，因为 3）我的看法 显而易见，这是一道提纲式的作文题。可以通过以下审题和构思过程完成这篇作文： 1分析题目和提纲可知，应该写一篇说明文，当然其中可以夹有议论。要写出“不换 工作”和“换工作”的原因，然后给出自己的看法，重点是原因和看法。 2根据提纲，文章可分 3 段，第 1 段是“喜欢从事一种工作”的原因；第 2 段写出“喜欢 经常换工作”的原因；第 3 段是“我的”看法。 3根据以上分析，可以把提纲转换为主题句如下： Some people tend to stick to their position all the time Some people are different They are in the habit of job-hopping I am not in favour of constant job-hopping 4以材料支持各段主题句。第 1 段的材料可以是：喜欢那份工作的各种原因：有发展前途、 工资高等；第 2 段经常“跳槽”的原因：不能施展自己的才能，谋求更高的收入等。第 3 段也要说明原因，并总结归纳，圆满结尾。 三、参考范文： My View on Job-hopping Some people tend to stick to their positions all the time，as they think the longer one works in a particular field，the more skillful one will be at itSome have been teachers all their livesSome devote all their energy to scientific researchSuch people love their work and turn out to be specialists in their own fieldsThey are usually high achievers 2 Some are differentThey are in the habit of job-hopping，for they always purpose what is new and stimulatingThey never seem content with their present situationsThey like to meet more people，make more money and new acquaintances，so they hop from job to job As far as I am concerned，I am not in favour of constant job-hopping I believe in a famous proverb， “A rolling stone gather no moss ”I want to be professionally strongAnd I respect those who devote themselves to their affectionate jobs throughout their life. 四六级写作技法和策略(CET4 写作指导 1) 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. Whats 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 river sand 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。 3 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. 二、 首段和尾段的写作 上一讲中我们介绍了段落的扩展模式，也就是说，我们已经了解了文章中间一部分的 叙述模式。根据四六级写作的特点，一般首段和尾段都要自己补上，那么怎么才能写好首 尾段呢，下面我介绍一下，首尾段的写作方式。 1首段的写作 首段的写作方式一般为： 运用事实性信息、调查或故事等引出话题，2）导入主题，然后提出自己的观点，也就 是文章的论点 首段开篇的方式常见的有： 1） 谚语法 由于谚语一般已经被大家所接受，用谚语提出自己的观点也容易被读者所接受。 As the saying goes, Money makes the mare go, but there are many things we cant buy with money, such as time and true love. 2） 定义法 定义法是通过对文章中的关键词做一些简单或正面或反面的解释，限定其范围，这样 比较有利于引出主题。 Practice makes perfect is an old saying. It tells us that it does not matter if we are clumsy at doing something. As long as we keep on trying and practicing, we will do a good job in the end. 3） 提问法 通过提问一个或一连串的问题，可以激发读者的兴趣，从而引出主题。 a. Do you have many friends? Are they similar to you or different from you? Which kind of friends do you prefer? b. What is a good student? Different people may have different answers to this question. 4） 概括法 概括法指先总结文章内容所涉及的现状，然后引出主题。 In recent years, with the development of science and technology, the Internet has come into more and more homes and is playing a more and more important role in our work and daily life. It has become a must to us, but at the same time, Internet has also brought with it a lot of problems. 5） 故事法 4 故事法指用简单有趣的故事激发读者的兴趣，从而提出自己的观点。如下面Is Stress a Bad Thing? 6） 引语法 Just as eating without liking harms the health, learning without interest harms the memory and cant be retained. From Vincis words we can see how important it is to motivate the students in language learning. 7） 调查法 为了得到读者的认可，文章的开始可以引出调查数据等，借以提出主题，如下面Is Stress a Bad Thing?的 1）和Can School children Start Using the Internet?的 4） 。 8） 假设法 假设法是指通过假设提出一种选择，交代文章要涉及的问题，从而提出文章的主题。 Suppose you were offered two jobs, one is highly-paid but rather demanding, the other is less demanding, but poorly-paid, which would you prefer? 9） 综合法 具体写作时，同学们没有必要拘泥于一种方式，可以将上述方法总和起来。 首段示例 1： 题目：Is Stress a Bad Thing? 提纲：1）有人害怕压力 2） 有人认为压力并不是一件坏事 3） 我的看法 I cant stand the pressure and competition, explained one friend of mine when asked why he decided to quit his highly-paid but demanding position in his company recently. My friend may have his own reasons, but I dont think his decision is wise in reality. It is true that my friends case is not unique. In the last few years quite a number of men and women have chosen to do something less competitive at the cost of a comfortable, easy life a highly-paid job can obtain. They are afraid that the stresses and strains of work will rob them of joy and happiness and do them harm both physically and mentally. In fact, however, stress isnt the bad thing it is often supposed to be. Unless it gets out of control, a certain amount of stress is vital to provide motivation and challenge, and to give purpose and significance to an otherwise meaningless, idle life. People under stress tend to express their full range of potential and to actualize their own personal worth - the very aim of a human life. Stress is a natural part of everyday life and there is no way to avoid it. What we can do is to develop our adaptive abilities to deal with it rather than to escape from it. 就这一标题而言，根据所提示的提纲，首段的写作还可以采用下列方式： 1) According to a recent survey, in the last few years, quite a number of young people have chosen to quit their demanding but highly-paid jobs. Although they may have their own respective reasons, I dont think their decision is wise in reality. 2) Which job do you prefer, a highly-paid but very competitive position or a poorly-paid but also less demanding job? You may choose the latter and have your own reasons, but I dont think this choice is wise enough whatever reasons. 3) Faced with a hard and demanding task, peoples attitude varies widely: some try to avoid it and others regard it as a challenge to their abilities. In fact the choice we make between flight or fight make the difference between leaders and 5 mediocrities(平庸之辈). 首段示例 2： 标题：Can Schoolchildren Start Using the Internet? 提纲： 1）随着科技的发展，网络越来越普及； 2）网络有其优点但也有缺点； 3）我的观点 根据上面的提示，首段可有下列几种方式： 1) Nowadays, using the Internet has become a fashion. Many parents begin to teach their children to use the Internet. However, there are diverseopinions on this. Some think it wise, but I dont agree with them. 2) Today, the Internet is becoming more and more common. It begins to play a more and more important role in our society and life. Its so useful that most adults are learning how to use it. What about children? Of course they can start using it. 3) Today, with the development of science and technology, the Internet is beginning to play a more and more important role in our life. More and more people are starting to use the Internet, including schoolchildren. However, I think schoolchildren are too young to start using the Internet. 4) According to a recent survey, Internet users are becoming younger and younger, and Internet bars have become a resort for schoolchildren who log in to chat or play games. Faced with this phenomenon, many people argue for measures to prevent schoolchildren from using the Internet, and I think they have their reasons. 结论段的写作 结论一般采用归纳概括、主题重述或提建议等方式。 常见的方式有： 1） 重述或总结主题 重述主题指于结论处以另外一种表达方式重申主题，与首段照应。 Families offer us warmth and care. Friends give us strength and horizon. They both help us understand the world as it is. Both of them are the dearest parts in our life. 2） 提出建议 Since postcards do us more harm and good, since we have many other ways to convey our feelings and promote our friendship, I hope everyone will take actions now to stop using postcards. 3） 概括总结 As we can see from the above, living in the suburb we can stay away from pollution, lead an easy leisure time, and neednt invest too much money, so I prefer living in the suburb to living in the city. 4） 引用名人名言 In particular, I enjoy what Francis Bacon said Studies serve for delight, for ornament and for ability. 5)综合法 与首段一样，结论段也可以是多种方法的综合。一般说来，总结加建议的比较多。 尾段示例 1： 如网络 的结论段可以如下所示： 10） As we all know, the next century will become one of the Internet. Internet will become more and more important in both our daily life and our work. So I suggest that schoolchildren should start using the Internet. 6 11） So I think schoolchildren not only can start using the Internet, but also should start using it They are sure to benefit a lot from the internet. 12） Internet can help our children know the world, get useful information and enrich their knowledge. So I think schoolchildren can start using the Internet. 13） In a word (In conclusion/ In summary/ To sum up / In short), the Internet is playing a more and more important role in our life and it is helpful for childrens growth both physically and mentally. It is better for them to start using the Internet as early as possible. 转承语的使用 根据不同的段落要求，选择适当的转承语 1) 比较对照 比较：like A, B Just as A, B A, similarly/correspondingly, likewise/in the same way, B 对照： Unlike/ Contrary to/ As opposed to A, B A , however/on the other hand/in contrast, B A , B, however/on the other hand/in contrast, 2)列举 First/ Second (Next) / Third (Then)/ Last (Finally), The fist/ The second/ The third/ The last (The final) Firstly/Secondly/Thirdly/Last(Finally) One/Another/Still another/The last The most essential/most important/primary/chief is 3) 因果 as a result, consequently, therefore, hence, so, because of this, for these reasons, due to the fact that 起承转合常用语 1）起的常用语 When asked about/ When it comes to/ Faced with , some people claim/think/argue/believe that , but/while others (differently) Nowadays there is much/general discussion as to .

Although most people are reluctant to move to the outskirts of the cities, I feel like living in the suburbs. 8 It is true that the city can provide much convenience and entertainment, the very reason why people cant bear to part with city life. But the cost for the privilege of living in the city is also high. Whats more, there is more gas and noise pollution in the city, which is full of petrol fumes and toxic gases, torn by the roar of buses and taxies, and thronged ceaselessly by great crowds. In contrast, living near the countryside one can enjoy the clean atmosphere, the closeness to nature and the quiet, peaceful surroundings the essentials of a healthy life. Although living in the suburbs one may suffer a little discomfort brought about by the necessity of traveling miles to work every day, it means nearly nothing when thinking of the high cost and heavily polluted environment of the city. The new suburban life is fast becoming a predominant pattern of living in most cities; and with the improvement of traffic and the perfection of services, it will prove to hold great superiority over city life. 谋篇布局（2） - 根据话题加引段，于段尾提出自己的观点（也就是提示中的第三句要求内容） - 将提示的第一句和第二句写成文章的中心段落 - 根据文章的叙述重点，总结全文，提出方法等。 例证 标题： My View on College Students Part-time Jobs 提纲：1）有人认为大学生做兼职工作很有好处； 2）然而，有人认为大学生做兼职工作弊多利少； 3）我的看法 Nowadays, an increasing number of college students are doing part-time jobs. People hold different opinions on that. Some people think that there are many advantages for college students to have part-time jobs. Firstly, part-time jobs offer them opportunities to apply what they have learned in school and demonstrate their abilities. Secondly, it enables them to be more independent of their family and builds up their self- confidence. Thirdly, part-time experiences may be of great help to their future careers. Finally, part-time jobs can broaden their college lives and help them know more of themselves and society. However, some other people hold that doing part-time jobs has more disadvantages. The main job of college students is to study, not to work. If they have part-time jobs, they may have to reduce their time for sleep, rest, study and activities. Working several hours a day consumes a lot of time and energy and may affect their studies. As a result, they may find it hard to adjust to what the college expects of them as well as their employers expect, and finally, they may fall behind or fail in their studies. In my opinion, students can choose to take up a part-time job according to their own situation. The most important thing for them is to keep a good balance between part-time jobs and his study. 谋篇布局（3） - 将提示的第一句和第二句合为第一段，于段尾提出自己的观点； - 说明自己的理由； - 结论段总结全文 例文 标题：How to Achieve Success 提纲：1）有人说成功主要靠运气； 9 2）有人则认为成功主要靠勤奋，与运气毫无关系; 3）我的观点 Some people say the key to success is the luck, while others claim it is hard work.
