英語專業四級寫作策略

  不到一個月就是英語專四考試時間了,最後衝刺階段,作文複習當然必不可少。考場寫作時改變一下句子的型別,把簡單句、並列句和複合句混合在一起使用,就能給閱卷老師眼前一亮的感覺哦。具體如何進行長短句搭配呢?一起來看看下面的指導吧!

  最好的方法是以簡單句為基礎,配合適當的並列句和複雜句。簡單句可長可短,通常要加些附屬成分,如分詞短語、介詞短語、副詞短語、不定式動詞短語,以及節縮成分。如下面的一段例文:I have often wondered whether some people,who had no intention of making a purchase,would take advantage of this privilege. One day I asked this question to the shop girl, and I learned it was indeed the case。

  總之,作者可根據情況,使句子多樣化,使文章靈活多姿。例如下列五個句子的基本概念一樣,但是句式不同,內容重點也有些差別:

  ***1*** The goats grazed peacefully in the farm and were unaware of the approaching hunter. ***並列分句***

  ***2*** Grazing peacefully, the goats in the farm were unaware of the approaching hunter. ***現在分語短語+簡單句***

  ***3*** In the farm, the goats grazed peacefully and were unaware of the approaching hunter. ***副詞短語+並列分句***

  ***4*** There were goats grazing peacefully in the farm, unaware of the approaching hunter. ***簡單句+形容語短語***

  ***5*** As the goats grazed peacefully in the farm, they were unaware of the approaching hunter. ***原因副詞從句+主句***

  ***1***和***5***的句式最常見;如果加上其他三種互相交替,句子不是更多樣化嗎?我們再來看看下面兩個句子要如何多樣化?

  1. The young pilot was on his first overseas training.

  2. He felt very uneasy.

  3. The young pilot on his first overseas training felt very uneasy.

  4. The young pilot felt very uneasy during his first overseas training.

  5. The young pilot's first overseas training made him feel very uneasy.

  6. Extreme uneasiness seized the young pilot on his first overseas training.

  7. The young pilot was on his first overseas training, feeling very uneasy.

  8. It being his first overseas training, the young pilot felt very uneasy.

  9. Being on his first overseas training, the young pilot felt very uneasy.

  10. The young pilot was on his first overseas training and felt very uneasy.

  11. The young pilot, who was on his first overseas training, felt very uneasy.

  12. When the young pilot was on his/first overseas training, he felt very uneasy.

  13. As the young pilot was on his first overseas training, he felt very uneasy.

  14. The young pilot was on his first overseas training, so that he felt very uneasy.

  在上述12個句子中,1-9是簡單句;10是並列句;11-12是複雜句。簡單句除4和9之外,其他五樣,用的人並不多。人們最喜歡採用複雜句,尤其是12和13這兩款;接著便是並列句10。如果大多數人的句子只限於3,9,10,12和13這五種,而其他的則棄如敝屣,不是很可惜嗎?

  所以,大家在進行寫作練習時,不妨多嘗試變換句式,讓自己的文章看起來更豐富多彩,錯落有致。
