综观全国各地试卷结构,高考英语作文是分值仅次于阅读,是英语考试的重头戏之一,而且非常适合考前集中突破。高考英语作文题目历来都是“情理之中,意料之外”。
情理之中,是说高考英语写作永远都是“学生话题、现实生活话题”(student-oriented themes),也就是全体考生不论理科文科、男生女生、城市农村、应届往届,都会同样地有话可讲。
意料之外,是说高考英语作文题目经常与考生直接关心的社会热点话题无直接联系,但仔细琢磨,又会发现一些联系,就是说“热点归热点,关键找角度”。例如,经济危机是当前热点,温总理也总在讲“信心比黄金更重要”,可是怎样变成高考英语作文题?命题专家完全可以根据如下要点提纲命制这样一个题目:
1、生活中困难不可避免,面对困难需要信心…
2、试举一例说明信心在学习(考试、生活等)方面的作用…
3、你对困难的态度…
根据这种思路,好学英文网高考英语学科专家结合六个话题,在高考最后时刻,为全国考生精心“圈点”高考英语作文。
一、好学英文网推出几点重要原则。
1。智者利用押题,傻子依赖押题!
2。书面表达整篇背诵绝无必要,可以以看读为主,关键是从该讲义中汲取一些自己认为常用的积极词汇和表达,并能得体熟练地运用。考场上应变能力很重要!
3。英文写作模仿很重要,有时也很有效,但不能过于牵强,尤其是对一些长难句的刻意模仿使用。
4。文似看山不喜平,启承转合一定要有!
5。见微知著,一叶知秋,几个亮点即足矣;有道是:浓妆淡抹总相宜,作文写得简洁到位要比长篇大论更显功力。
6。心不为形役,不要身陷逐字逐句“英汉对号”式的字面翻译,要把表达的主动权始终握在自己手里。
有关“志愿者”话题
例1:
假设你是健康俱乐部的一位志愿者,根据以下要点,写一篇短文,帮助广大市民更好地了解和预防H1N1流感:
(1)该流感已在许多国家爆发,病例每天持续增多;
(2)该流感与其他季节性流感传播方式一样,通过咳嗽、喷嚏等在人群中传播;
(3)建议:不随便当众咳嗽、打喷嚏,经常洗手,生病时在家休息……
As we know, a growing outbreak of H1N1 flu has been sparked in many countries. An increasing number of cases are being reported every day.
It’s thought that H1N1 flu spreads in the same way that regular seasonal influenza viruses do, that is, spreading from person-to-person, mainly through the coughs and sneezes of people who are sick with the virus.
Faced with this severe disease, here are some everyday measures we should take to stay healthy. First, cover your nose and mouth with a tissue when you cough or sneeze. Wash your hands often with soap and water, especially after you cough or sneeze. Avoid touching your eyes, nose or mouth. Germs spread that way. If you get sick, stay home from work or school and limit contact with others to keep from infecting them.
Finally, H1N1 flu is not a terribly deadly disease, which is curable. So, don’t be nervous and just keep calm as usual.
例2:
你所在的城市即将举办国际贸易博览会。有关部门现向全社会招聘志愿者。要求:
(1)具有为国际友人服务的热情;
(2)掌握丰富的文化知识,既是服务人员,也是文化的使者;
