实用英文写作技巧

篇一：实用英语作文写作技巧

一、 概述

1．《大学英语课程教学要求》对四级英语写作的要求

能够填写常见的表格如注册表、申请表、问卷调查等

能够写给或回复他人祝贺卡、生日卡、邀请信、便条、短信、通知等； 能写出简单的指示语、个人广告、社团海报、个人简历等；

能简要的描述个人经历、

发生的事件、读过的故事、观看的影片、喜怒哀乐等情感，写出或回答个人或公司的信函、电子邮件、传真等；

能就一定的话题或提纲在30分钟内写出120词左右的短文，内容完整、用词恰当、语义连贯；

能在一般写作或应用文作文中恰当使用相应的技能。

2. 评分原则

作文采用总体评分方法，

阅卷人员就总的印象给出奖励分，而不是按语言点的错误数目扣分。

从内容和语言两个方面进行综合评判。内容和语言是一个统一体。作文应表达题目所规定的内容，内容要通过语言来表达。要考虑作文是否切题，是否充分表达思想；要考虑是否用英语清楚而准确的表达思想，即要考虑语言上的错误是否造成理解上的障碍。

评分应避免趋中倾向，该给高分的给高分，包括满分；该给低分的给低分，包括零分。

3．评分

短文写作部分满分为15分。

阅卷标准共分五等：14分、11分、8分、5分及2分。各有参考卷一至两份。 阅卷人员根据阅卷标准，对照参考卷评分，若认为与某一分数（如8分）相似，即定为该分数（即8

分）；若认为稍优或稍劣于该分数，则可加一分（即9分）或减一分（即7分）。但不得加或减半分。 各段评分标准：

14分 -- 切题。表达思想清楚，文字通顺。连惯性较好。基本上无语言错误，仅有个别小错。（漂漂亮亮）

11分 -- 切题。表达思想清楚，文字连贯，但有少量语言错误。（清清爽爽）

篇二：关于英文写作的一些实用技巧

关于英文写作的一些实用技巧

1. 有很多名词有抽象的用法，都可以转化成积极的动词。 例如：we will evaluate the program.

改为：there are willbe an evaluation of the program by us .

2. 在句末强调一个颇为重要的词

例如：No one can explain why that first primevalsuperatom exploded and thereby created the univers in a few words .

改为：no onecan explain in a few words why that first primeval superatom exploded and thereby created the univers

3. 用于强调后半句的句式要少用。

例如：there are 、there is

例如：what

例如：it

4. 关于主动语态和被动语态。

根据第一条原则，尽量使用主动语态，被动语态给人一种貌似客观的感觉，但实际上掩盖了谁在采取行动，这是很多政治者为了掩盖行动者，推卸责任的方法。

而一些规章制度要求客观的效果，，在没有必要指出行动者，或者完全无关紧要的时候可以采取被动语态，强调受动者。

学术文章也追求客观的效果，但这并不意味着要使用被动语态。

篇三：英语写作实用技巧( 上交)

第 七 讲:英 语 写 作

概况: 写作是交大自主招生英语考题最重要的部分,不仅分值高,而且字数要求也高. 小作文是应用文,一般是书信. 大作文一般是议论文,对某种社会现象做出评论,试卷给出提纲,字数不少于 250.

难点:应用文要记清楚格式 大作文要在有限的时间内写出够字数的文章

中学生写的作文基本上都在 100 词左 右,要写 250 词,考生必须好好构思一下,想想怎样才能写长,又避免写一些与题 目不相干的东西.往年试题: 往年试题:书信

Sample 1: Suppose you are a newspaper editor and have received the following letter from your reader. Write a reply to him and offer your advice.

Dear editor, I'm 18 years old. Like many other university students, I've fallen in love with a girl who is in the same department as me. But I have no courage to tell her, because she is younger than me and only treats me as a brother. I am afraid of being laughed at by her roommates, and I am afraid of losing our friendship after telling her the truth. What can I do? Just keep the love in heart?

Yours

Michael Sample

便 条

便条是为不同目的而写的简短信函,它的形式比一般书信简单,多为非正式文体.

注意便条的日期一定要写清楚, 最好不要完全使用数字, 因为英国英语和美国英语 的日期写法不一致.如 10/2/99,对英国人和大多数欧洲人来说是 99 年 2 月 10 日,但 对美国人来说却是 99 年 10 月 2 日.
