高考英语热点复习——书面表达

高考英语热点复习——书面表达

‎2009年高考英语热点复习——书面表达 考情动态分析 书面表达（高考25分）宗旨是测试考生的英语表达能力，看其是否能够运用学过的知识和掌握的技能进行思想交流。他不仅能测试出考生的词汇量、语法、书法等方面的能力，更能测试出考生组织文章、输出所学知识的表达能力。 ‎ 从历年来的高考试卷来看，书面表达是指导（限制）性的写作：即按照题目（或一段文字或及幅图画）所给的条件、内容、要求、时间、地点、在限制的字数（100个词左右）内，去完成写作。它不同与其他命题写作文，可以随意发挥，也不是简单的翻译，而必须做到行文切题，紧扣中心思想，不漏要点，符合语法，并且意思连贯，文理通顺，语言准确得当。 ‎ 一、书面表达解题方法与技巧：‎ 认真审题，理解题意 ‎ 首先要看准文章的写作体裁，其次,才能定时态、定人称、定格式(因为不同的文体的格式不同)，然后再考虑语言，语气的运用。一般的记叙文，说明文，议论文等多用书面语；而应用文，如书信，口头通知，便条等多用口头语。记叙文、日记等一般可用过去时，而说明文、通知等一般要用一般现在时或将来时。 如果是看图写文，看懂每幅图之间的联系至关重要。 写要点。据每幅图写出一至两句话。因为每年高考书面表达一般控制在10句话，120个词左右。 ‎ 连句成文。每句话写好后，用适当的连词连接起来，使之上下连贯，呼应，通顺，简洁。 ‎ 查错漏。完稿后，检查一下有没有时态，语态，拼写错误并逐一加以改正。‎ 书写规范 卷面干静 任何一种形式的书面文字材料，都要求书写规范，拼写准确无误，字迹清晰，按书写规则大小写及移行正确。且记不要有铁丝网、地雷、篱笆之类的东西，卷面一定要讲究干净（不要用铅笔答题，要用圆珠笔、钢笔）。‎ 不同的书面表达形式有不同的格式，如书信、日记、通知等各有其特殊形式，都要按要求书写规范。 书写时除了注意移行规则外，还应注意字母写得圆滑饱满，有15%左右的倾斜度，每行写10个单词左右，词与词的距离要小、行与行的距离稍大些，写10行左右，这样字段既符合要求，也显得短小精悍。‎ 同时，还要注意文章的开头和结尾写好，要用最流行、最回味的语言和语句去写，这样更会得到评卷老师的好感。只有这样您才会得到满意而有理想的高分。 ‎ 总之,书面表达必须在所提示的范围内,根据不同文体的特点和要求来解题,努力做到:要点全,句子通,条理清.指代明确,时态呼应,格式标准,书写工整,卷面干净.当然”冰冻三尺,非一日之寒”.因此,要写好书面表达,除了掌握一定的写作方法及技巧,还要特别注意平时知识的日益积累.因此.平时要多读,多写,多记一些句型并掌握词汇的用法,多背一些优美的句子及范文.只有具备了一定语言基础知识和语言组织能力,积累大量的语言材料,再加上平时的强化训练,同学们的写作水平就一定会大大地提高,在高考中就一定会写出更好的文章来。 ‎ 为了帮助同学们在平时写作练习的时候时刻牢记这些写作的基本要领，特编顺口溜如下：细审题，巧构思，列要点，防遗漏。写日记，同汉语；书信，通知格式要牢记。看清图表细梳理，写人记事按顺序；完稿后查遗漏，整洁干净莫忘记。 ‎ 二、高考英语书面表达高分策略：‎ 从遣词，造句，谋篇三个方面分析。 ‎ 遣词的原则：‎ 使用高等级词汇及短语, 如果仅仅记住几个简单基础的词汇,而且一味的重复低水平的英语知识点,还远远没有达到大学的入学要求。这就要求考生在平时的训练和考试当中，有意识的强化“复杂，高级”这两个概念，使自己的作文能力区别于普通学生的作文，使自己一下子就站在一个比别人高的位置上，充分显示自己的实力。 平时学习过程中注意总结各种各样的词汇。以描述人物的词汇为例： ‎ 表达人物爱憎感情： like, love, be interested in, be fond of… hate, dislike, be tired of, lose interest in… happy, excited, pleased, satisfied, angry, sad, worried, disappointed, terrified, mad, frightened… ‎ 介绍人物的影响及人们对人的评价： He became famous for his new theory. The people had come to love him as an inspiring leader. We regard Li Fei as our model. Lei Feng has been praised for his communist spirit. People spoke highly of him and all respected him. ‎ 常见描述人物性格，外貌和身体状况等的词语 good-looking /funny-looking /strong-looking /ugly-looking /dirty-looking /ordinary-looking /blue-eyed /white-eyed /warm-hearted /light-hearted /kind-hearted /near-sighted /far-sighted /foolish /stupid /silly /clever /smart /wise /bright / diligent /intelligent /lazy /hard working, etc. ‎ 造句的原则：‎ 句式多变，语法活用，句子是表达一个完整意思的最小当位，所以造句能力在英文写作中是非常重要的。好的英语句子能够生动，形象，准确的表达内容。所以要想写出漂亮的书面表达，必须从写好句子开始。 ‎ 英语基本句型及造句: ‎ 主语+谓语+状语(介词,名词短语或从句) The sun rises up in the east and sets in the west. We get up early every morning. The meeting lasted 2 hours. ‎ 主语+不及物动词+副词 This kind of wine drinks well and sells well. The suit wears well.

It takes us only an hour to do sports, so we hardly have any time to watch TV.‎ We feel tired because of the pressure of examinations and the high expectations from the parents.‎ I write this letter only to wish that you could have the teachers give us less homework so that we could have enough time to do what we want. In my opinion, the result of the examinations is not so important to us. We teenagers are eager to play and enjoy ourselves.‎ I’m looking forward to your good news.‎ ‎ Yours truly,‎ ‎ Li Hua ‎7．‎ Dear Friends,‎ Welcome to China. I am very glad to tell you what you are going to do during your stay in Beijing . Our headmaster is to see you on Monday morning and he will introduce our school to you. You will visit the lab building and the library in the afternoon. On Tuesday morning the students of the two countries are to visit the Great Wall, where Mr Zhang will tell some interesting stories about it . In the evening we are going to have a party in Room 402. The Chinese students and the English students will give nice performances at the party. You will have a talk with the Chinese students on Wednesday morning. You will be free in the afternoon. And you will leave for Xi’an by train at 21:45 p.m. .‎ Thank you.‎ ‎8.‎ Give Up Smoking Smoking is a widespread habit even among school children. The number of young smokers is increasing.‎ It is reported that over two-fifths of the students in a certain school smoke, and some of them even steal money to buy cigarettes, This is terrible.‎ As we all know, smoking is harmful to our health. But it’s even more harmful to middle school students for it does great harm not only to their health but also to their mind.‎ Middle school students are future builders of the country. They should spend their time learning what is useful. So it’s really time that these young smokers made up their minds to give up smoking.‎ ‎9.‎ Our English Teacher Our English teacher is a middle-aged woman. She has taught English for more than twenty years. She works very hard and has been a model teacher for many years.‎ She is kind to us. but she is rather strict with us. She always encourages us to speak and read more English. She often tells us that “practice makes perfect.”‎ She is very good at teaching and tries hard to make every lesson lively and interesting. She often gives us slide shows, teaches us English songs and helps us to put on short English plays.‎ She loves us and is always ready to help us. In fact, she is not only our good teacher but also our good friend. We all respect and love her.‎ ‎10.‎ Road Safety Every year a lot of people are killed or injured in road accidents. How can we make the roads safer? Remember the following traffic rules.‎ When you ride a bike, keep to the right side of the road. Don’t cross the road or turn left at a red traffic light. Give a hand signal if you want to turn or stop.‎ Before crossing the road, stop and look both ways, right and left. If the road is clear, it is safe to cross. The correct way to cross is to walk quickly, but not to run. If you run across the road, you may fall down.‎ If you see small children or old people waiting to cross the road, it is a kind deed to help them to cross in safety. We should teach small children not to play or ride on the roads.‎ Always obey these rules, you’ll find it much safer to walk or ride on the road.‎ ‎11.‎ The Value of Time ‎ A proverb says “Time is money.” But in my opinion, time is even more precious than money. Why? Because when money is spent, we can earn it back. However, when time is gone, it will never return. This is the reason why we must value time. ‎ The time we can use is limited. Therefore, even an hour is extremely precious. We should make full use of our time to do useful things. As students we must not relax our efforts to learn our lessons so as to serve society and our nation in the future. ‎ But it is pity that there were a lot of people who do not know the importance of time. They spend their precious time smoking, drinking and chatting. They do not realize that wasting time is equal to wasting a part of their valuable life. ‎ In a word, we should form the good babit of saving time. Do not put off what can be done today until tomorrow. ‎ ‎12. ‎ No. 2 Middle School Beijing June 8th, 2000 ‎ Dear Uncle, ‎ It was very kind of you to remember my birthday, and I thank you very much for the English-Chinese dictionary and for your good wishes. I have already begun to use the dictionary, and I love it. ‎ I am glad to tell you that I won the first prize in spoken English contest held in our city recently. I am sure you will be glad to hear that, and I’ll do my best to work harder and make more progress. ‎ ‎ Yours sincerely ‎ ‎ Li Wei ‎ ‎13.‎ One possible version The Green School Project has become part of the environmental education in our school. However, there are still a lot of problem in the school.‎ Very often you come across an empty classroom with the lights still on. It’s not difficult to find evidence of wasting water，a very serious problem. Additionally，students do not recycle enough，throwing away the soft drink bottles，used exercise papers and books. Worse still，many students still use the non-environmentally friendly lunch boxes，causing the “White Pollution”.‎ These things should that many students lack the sense of environmental awareness. It’s important to educate students to be more environmentally friendly. At the same time，students can do small things，such as collecting used items for recycling turning off the lights，saving water. Always remember that it’s everyone’s responsibility to protect the environment.‎ ‎14.‎ The Green School Project has become part of the environmental education in our school.

It’s important to educate students to be more environmentally friendly. At the same time，students can do small things，such as collecting used items for recycling turning off the lights，saving water. Always remember that it’s everyone’s responsibility to protect the environment.‎ ‎15.‎ If you want to keep healthy, please take my following advice. ‎ It's important for us to be careful about diseases all the time. If you pick up a disease, see a doctor immediately and make sure you don't carry the disease everywhere. ‎ In our daily life, don't drink water that is not boiled, for it is very easy to cause a disease from water that is not clean. ‎ When you are out, don't eat food that has been kept outside for a long time. You'd better also make sure that the bowls and spoons, etc. have been washed in a proper way. ‎ ‎16.‎ Dear headmaster , ‎ I’m writing to tell you about a discussion we’ve had about whether students of Senior 3 should take physical exercise . 60% of the students think they should take exercise every day , such as doing morning exercises , playing ping-pong ball and playing basketball , but it shouldn’t take up ‎ too much time . Exercise builds one’s body and reduces diseases . Sports let their brains have a rest so that their revision will be more effective .‎ On the other hand , 30% believe taking exercise is a waste of time and tiring . After having sports , they are much too excited for a long time to pay attention to their lessons . It’s also possible to be hurt in sports .‎ ‎ Yours sincerely ‎ Ma Xin ‎17.‎ It will be the last day of mid-term tomorrow, and I hope all of you will try your best to do well in the last exam—English. After that, the Students’ Union is going to organize a mountain-climbing activity. Please wear sports shoes and take some food and water with you. In the course of the mountain-climbing, please help each other and pay special attention to your safety. Please don’t leave your class without permission. On the top of the mountain, each class is going to have a picture taken. After going downhill, you can either walk home or take a bus. ‎ ‎18.‎ Good evening, this is Mary Lamb again with the weather report. A strong wind from the north is coming to London in twenty-four hours. This wind will bring us the first snow of this year. With that snow, the temperature will drop to three or four below zero. So remember to keep warm and watch out for the poor road conditions. If you like skating, however, here is our good news for you. This low temperature will last for at least two weeks and London will be a world of white. And that ends our special report for today, April 1,2004. Next, a song for you, I Am Dreaming of a White Christmas.‎ ‎19.‎ Should students make friends on line ?Some people say yes .The internet helps make many friends .Chatting on line ,students can more freely express their feelings and opinions ,and even get help with their foreign language studies .‎ Others ,however, think students should not .They say making friends on line is a waste of time ,which should be spent more meaningfully on study .Besides ,some students get cheated on line.‎ It is my opinion that students should place their study ,health and safety before other things .As for friendship ,we can readily find it in our classmates and other people around us. ‎ ‎20.‎ A healthy diet and regular exercise may help to prevent obesity (肥胖) among children. Take Li Ming for example.‎ Li Ming used to be a healthy boy, but over a year ago, into the habit of eating a lot of junk food and snacks. Besides, he spent a lot of time lying on the sofa, watching TV, and did little exercise. As a result, he put on so much weight that he found it difficult to climb the stairs.‎ So Li Ming decided to change the unhealthy life style. He began to have a balanced, healthy diet. He also took part in various sports activities such as swimming, skating, running and playing basketball. Months later, Li Ming became as fit as before.‎
