学会中间段写作中间段的写作其实非常简单,只需要把提纲中的信息按照顺序写成语句就行了,只是中国考生要学会逻辑连接、句式连接并避免抽象地空谈。比如:Acompanyhasannouncedthatitwishestobuildalargefactorynearyourcommunity.Discusstheadvantagesanddisadvantagesofthisnewinfluenceonyourcommunity.Doyousupportoropposethefactory?Explainyourposition.假设考生写的第一层是建工厂的好处,第二层是建工厂的坏处(注意这是一道比较/反差类题目)。现在我们写第二层:建工厂对社区不好,而想写的是环境方面的内容,提纲可以是:Harmful:[pollution],notworthit——Air:acidrain,ozonedepletion,greenhouse——Water:drinkingwater——Trees:floodsanddroughts这个段落可以这样写:Buildinglargefactorieswouldbeharmfultothecommunitybecauseitwillinduceenvironmentalpollution.Factories,especiallythoseemoloyingtoxicchemicals,willdefinitelydestroythequalityofairandwaterintown.Theygeneratesmogandotheratmosphericemissionswhichcontributetothegreenhouseeffect,ozonedepletionandacidrain;theydumpindustrialwasteintoriverswhicharesupposedtobedrinkingwatersupply;theyacceleratethedeforestationwhichisproventoberesponsibleforabnormalfloodsandregionaldrought.Andpeople'shealthisatstake.Havingafewfactoriesisnotworththatrisk.再比如:Itisgenerallyagreedthatsocietybenefitsfromtheworkofitsmembers.Comparethecontributionsofartiststosocietywiththecontributionsofscientiststosociety.Whichtypeofcontributiondoyouthinkisvaluedmorebyyoursociety?Givespecificreasonstosupportyouranswer.假设考生写的第一层是关于艺术家对社会的贡献,第二层写科学家对社会的贡献,而想写的内容是环境方面的,提纲可以写成:·Scientists:moreobvious——Advancement:Plane,computer,vacuumcleaner——Makeourliveseasier,moresecure——Helparts:CD,TV,movie,mp3这个段落可以这样写:Thecontributionsscientistsmaketosocietyaremoreobviousthanthosemadebyartists.Almostallthecriticaladvancementsthatmakeourliveseasier,suchastheplanewetaketotravelabroad,thecomputersweuse(whetherforworkorforentertainments),andthehomeapplianceswhichhelpuscookourmealsandcleanourhouses,comefromthecreativeideasandhardworkofscientists.Thosescientificdiscoveriesandinnovationsmakeoutworkmoreefficient,ourshoppingmoreconvenient,andourlivesmoresecure.Plus,tosomeextentscientistsevencontributealottothearts——withouttechnologicalprogress,therewouldn’thavebeenmoviecenters,television,andmp3playerswhichinfuseartintoordinarypeople’slives.最后还有一例:Somepeoplebelievethatuniversitystudentsshouldberequiredtoattendclasses.Othersbelievethatgoingtoclassesshouldbeoptionalforstudents.Whichpointofviewdoyouagreewith?Usespecificreasonsanddetailstoexplainyouranswer.假设考生要写第三层:听课使我们学会服从,听课帮我们学会合作,听课让我们更深刻地理解肯本内容。现在写第二层:听课让我们学会合作,提纲如下:·Cooperation——Groupassignment:impossiblefor1person/needdifferentperspectives——Cooperate:budgettime,assigntasks,beperfect,expressopinions——Readyforchallengesatwork这个段落就可以这样写:Attendingclassteachesstudentshowtocooperatewithothers.Differentfromstudentsinprimaryorsecondaryschool,universitystudentsareoftengivengroupassignmentswhicharetechnicallyimpossibleforonepersontofinishintimeorwhichhavenouniversalanswersand,therefore,needtobecontemplatedfromvariousperspectives.Asaresult,boysandgirlsareforcedtolearnhowtoworkwithothersforacommongoal——suchashowtobudgettimeandassigntasksaccordingtoeachperson’sskillswithoutcausing“free-ride”,howtoperfectyourtaskwithoutannoyingotherteammates,andhowtoexpressyouropinionaboutothermember’sworkwithouttriggeringfrictionsorstupidfights.Alloftheabovemakecollegestudentsmatureandsensible,readytomeetthechallengestheywillsoonfaceintheworkplace.Therefore,attendingclassesisnecessaryforuniversitystudents.通过以上三个例子,可以发现其实最重要的是在列提纲的时候组织事实,中间段只是用正确的语句和词汇表达这些事实。建议练习:1、选出10个列过提纲的题目;2、为这些提纲的每一层设置2-3层细节;3、把这些层次写成中间段。学会开头和结尾段写作:一个饱满的开头短包含三个层次:话题引入层次抓住阅卷者的注意力,主题句层次清晰地展现观点,结构暗示层次提示中间段的层次结构或视角。·话题引入:这一层次有很多种写法,可以用“故事”开头,用“名人名言或谚语”引出话题,用“语出惊人”的方式开头,用“描述现状”的方式开头,用“问句”开头等。·主题句:这一层次的关键是把观点写清楚,可以加上“inmyview”之类的信号词,可以加上针对观点的总的抽象理由,可以加上让步层次。·结构暗示:这一层次用一句话提示中间段将出现几个层次,或者分析问题的视角。请看下面一例中每个层次可以怎样完成。Doyouagreeordisagreethatprogressisalwaysgood?Usespecificreasonsandexampletosupportyouranswer.开头段可以这样写:Progressintechnology,asaninevitablefactoflife,haschangedpeople'slivesdramatically.Butisprogressalwaysforthebest?Whileoneconsidersthepotentiallydangerousimpactofchangessuchasindustrializationandtheadventofnucleartechnology,itisclearthatprogress,whileinescapable,isnotalwaysforthebest.Art,historianssay,isakindofculture.文章开始(Progressintechnology,asaninevitablefactoflife,haschangedpeople'slivesdramatically.Butisprogressalwaysforthebest?)用一句话描述关键词“Progress”在我们生活中的影响,然后用问句引出话题【话题引入】,之后用“thepotentiallydangerousimpactofchangessuchasundustrializationandtheadventofnucleartechnology提示读者文章后面将从两个角度入手谈这个问题【结构暗示】,最后用itisclearthatprogress,whileinescapable,isnotalwaysforthebest清晰地阐明观点【主题句】。请看下面一题:Doyouagreeordisagreewiththefollowingstatement?Playinggamesteachesusaboutlife.Usespecificreasonsandexamplestosupportyouranswer.开头段可以这样写:Almosteveryone,fromlikechildrentoadults,lovesgames.Thetypesofgamesmaychangeandgetmorecomplexaswegrowup,butourenjoymentneverchanges.Ibelievethatplayinggamesisbothfunanduseful,becauseitteachesustheskillsweneedinlife.Gamesteachusthereisacause-effectrelationship,teachusaboutteamwork,andteachustofollowrules.Transgress/violate文章开始(“Almosteveryone,fromlittlechildrentoadults,lovesgames.Thetypesofgamesmaychangesandgetmorecomple
