A. 如何進行中學英語寫作教學

目前初中英語教學的書面表達相對滯後,學生的寫作水平提高甚微,形成了「聽到寫作學生心煩,見到習作教師不願」的現象,究其原因是多方面的。學生方面:(1)漢語影響、生詞造句;(2)詞彙貧乏、搭配不當;(3)句型誤用、語法不通;(4)信息不全、條理紊亂。教師方面在教學中缺乏科學和系統的寫作教學方法,表現為:(1)散——缺乏條理性、分散;(2)亂——各層次寫作雜亂相間、影響寫作能力的提高。

如何提高寫作教學效果,可以嘗試 「詞、句、篇」三步曲的寫作教學:

1.巧記單詞

按照語言學習規律,英語寫作教學的次序應是:詞—句—篇。整個訓練遵循「詞不離句,句不離篇」的原則,由易到難,由簡到繁,循序漸進,不斷提高。這三個階段彼此銜接,教會學生在大量的語言實踐中學會運用詞句,從而達到在書面表達教學中「教、學、用」三者的統一。

書面表達需要一定的詞彙量,學生書面表達時容易忘記單詞或把漢英詞彙等同起來。因此,要求學生堅持每天聽寫、默寫、循環記憶單詞,掌握鞏固詞彙。

2.用詞造句、連詞成句

寫作應從詞句練起,記憶所學的詞和片語的最好方法是在使用中記憶。通過口、筆頭造句練習,模仿課本例句或做替換練習是鞏固記憶的好方法。教師應重視教材中的單句練習,引導學生從對單個句型的掌握,逐漸過渡到多種句型的混用,直到學生能連貫自如地表達思想。

3.連句成意、線面融合

此項訓練的主要目的是培養學生把語法項目、教材內容和文章體裁有機結合起來的能力。

第一步,仿寫

為了便於優生書面寫作潛能的發揮,教師可以要求他們只模仿課本、練習冊中的題型,而不局限於模仿課本或練習冊中的詞彙。

第二步,引導學生寫

引導學生書面表達有許多形式,教師要從學生「學」的角度來設計教學活動,使學生的學習活動具有明確目標,並構成一個有梯度的連續活動。

第三步,自由發揮

教師要改進教學方法,設計開放性的寫作活動,既提高了學生讀和寫的能力,又提高了其識別、判斷和改錯的能力,更能發揮學生的內在潛能和豐富的想像力,還增加了學生的成功感。

例如,讓學生寫一封應聘的書信。可以在一塊小黑板上出示作文要求,讓學生展開思路,師生共同選出幾個最佳的起始句,然後再布置學生課後對這道書面表達題進行布局、謀篇、調整,添枝加葉,最終寫出個性化的文章。

第四步,集體訂正

在寫作訓練中,教師應按照循序漸進的原則,注意學生之間的層次差異。教師的寫作教學應該顧及到各層次的學生,佳作點評和錯例糾正都是不可缺少的環節。教師點評恰當,可以使學生意識到在學習書面表達過程中的成功之處,並得到激勵,從而形成繼續進步的動力,也可以讓學生自省和反思自己的不足,調整學習策略和心態。

總之,教師應根據新課標的要求,適應現代現實生活的實際需要,對學生進行寫作教學引導,在教學過程中應從實際情況出發,對學生進行低起點、小步子、容量適中、快速反饋訓練,充分體現學生的主體地位,幫助學生獲得成功,培養學生的優良學習品質。

B. 如何看待英語教師的英語寫作教學

當今的英語教學特別強調對學生的能力培養,即用英語進行聽,說,讀,寫的能力。在教學實踐中,要有效提高學生的寫作能力並非易事,只有把寫作教學與英語基礎知識教學,語言基本能力訓練及相關練習評價結合起來,才能逐步培養學生的英語思維習慣及語言感知能力,進而為提高學生的寫作能力奠定基礎。
由於英漢兩種語言在語法結構,表達方式,思維習慣存在的差異直接影響了學生的寫作能力,因而教學中要務必強化學生的聽,說,讀等方面的能力,並在訓練中讓學生掌握最基本的詞法,句法及語法,進而才能促使學生准確的表達思想,完成寫作,並達到新課標對寫作教學的要求。
一:要重視教材中的詞彙教學。
通過詞綴,詞性轉化等構詞知識,擴充學生的詞彙量及記憶能力的提高,同時鼓勵學生進行口筆頭造句,先易後難,正確運用句型,逐步培養學生在詞彙學習中正確運用句子表達含義的能力。
二:強化閱讀及背誦,並在模仿練習中加強寫作能力。
閱讀是語言學習的廣泛模式,而範文背誦則強化拓展了這一模式。通過大量有效的閱讀及背誦,增強了學生的英語語感,學生認讀了大量的英語詞彙及句型,同時也為學生提供了很好的寫作框架,並為學生的遣詞造句,模仿寫作提供了堅實的基礎。
三:日常教學中要重視學生的動詞及短語學習,強化學生的動詞決定句型的意識,並在口筆頭訓練中拓展時態,語態和語氣的學習。同時要引導學生就課文中出現的重點詞彙,經典例句等進行歸納總結,模仿練習,提高學生的語言變通能力,並在變通中增強英語寫作能力。
四:落實寫作訓練。
教師教學中要將聽,說,讀,寫貫穿於教學的始終。聽,說,讀為學生的寫作奠定了廣泛的基礎,而寫作則是對前者的綜合反饋。首先是機械的寫作,如默寫和聽寫,再者就是開展創造性的寫作。在聽,說,讀等教學環節中均可突出寫作的目標和要求,如句型轉換,句子改寫,縮寫及擴寫均是提高學生寫作能力的重要手段。
五:評價可以激發學生寫作的積極性,並在寫作教學中發揮著重要作用。
1. 教師要認真批閱學生的寫作練習,並給予正確的評價,也可讓學生本人在課堂上讀給其他學生聽,並讓其他學生從中得到啟迪。
2. 讓學生互批作文,或者進行小組討論,讓學生發現或糾正寫作過程中存在的問題,並在相互批閱中提高糾錯及寫作能力。
3. 加強學生對英語範文的背誦,並在此基礎上進行大量的仿寫訓練。
總之,學生寫作能力的提高要得益於英語的聽,說,讀的有效學習,同時要從學生的實際出發,經過長期反復和多種形式的練習,學生的寫作能力才能進一步得到提高。

C. 英語寫作教學中存在的問題

個人認為有兩個原因:
第一,詞彙量非常有限;
第二,沒有形成良好的
英語思維

D. 如何進行英語寫作教學

一、確定恰當.實際的教學目標教學目標是課堂的「指揮棒」,是所有教學行為的「指路明燈」。因此教學目標的設置必須:
(一)符合課程標准和學生實際的程度通常在一堂英語課中,知識和技能方面的教學目標教師都會努力去落實,但後兩個目標在教學中容易忽視。而在有些英語課堂教學中,教師的目光有盹總是停留在某一知識點的教學上,反反復復圍著目標知識,只求學生能將知識點爛熟於心;而有些教師則片面的追求課堂上的熱熱鬧鬧的場面,而忽視了本堂課所要達到的知識與能力目標。筆者曾隨堂聽過這樣一節課:這是一節一年級英語課,本課要教學生們用英語打招呼。上課鈴響了,「Hello!」老師有激情地向學生揮揮手。大家也情不自禁地回應「Hello!」「I』m fine.How are you?」老師豎起大拇指,指向自己,然後指向大家。於是開始了這節課的教學。『'How are you?」「I』m fine.」的呼聲此起彼伏。然後,老師放起了「heuo!Hello!How are you?」的樂曲。「Is it nice?Do you want to sing?」老師笑眯眯地問大家。「Yes!」孩:Pff]回應。老師看著學生們興致這么高,也很高興。首先,她讓學生先聽兩遍錄音,然後讓孩子們一句句地學說英文歌詞,又親自一句句的耄眇昌,然後跟著節拍唱、分男女唱、小組唱??教唱歌曲的過程整整持續了21分鍾。課也在歌聲中結束了。加分鍾的課里,有整整21分鍾學生們是在學唱歌中度過的,後半節課幾乎成了一堂音樂課。唱歌雖是/J嘩生容易接受的形式,但在英語課堂中,任何形式的活動都應為學生獲得語言能力設計,如果這些活動缺少了應有盡有的教學目標的指向,動的主題偏離了教學目標,再好的教學形式也不能收到理想的教學效果。

E. 如何在英語寫作教學中體現學生的主體地位

學生是知識意義的主動建構者,而非外部刺激的被動接受者;教師應該是學生主動建構知識意義的幫助專者而屬非知識的灌輸者。寫作在英語學習中佔有十分重要的地位。在寫作教學中應"以學生為中心",教師的角色由知識的傳授者、灌輸者轉變成為學生主動建構語言的幫助者和促進者。

F. 英語寫作的重要性,和教學時應注意什麼。200詞左右,英文版的

英語寫作其實比想像中的重要得多,工作和生活中隨處都需要用到這項基內本英語技能,許容多跨國公司都習慣使用電子郵件來與同事和商業夥伴通信,就如同每天都在寫一篇篇英語作文,即使是學生也常常需要用英語寫作各種論文和報告。因此,擁有良好的英語寫作能力,寫出優秀、准確的英語作文非常重要。即使你只是為了興趣愛好在網路上寫博客或在論壇發帖,擁有良好的英語寫作能力和英語語法也非常重要,穿插一些有趣的英語句子和恰到好處的短語,能夠吸引更多的人來瀏覽你的網站,參與你的話題。在EF英孚中心,學員可以參加不同內容的課堂輔導和討論會,課堂教學和討論的主題包括商務、科技、健身、節日、文化、藝術、環境和歷史等,還會安排英語寫作等技能類的課堂訓練,幫助學員達到聽說讀寫全方位的鍛煉,課堂實行小組教學,每位老師一般負責三名學員,而討論會則是以外教主持的形式進行外教坐堂的在線英語寫作課程EF的在線英語寫作課別具一格。當學員把寫好的英語作文上傳系統之後,老師會在48小時之內給予詳細的批復,包括英語語法、字詞的修正及英語寫作評分、以及針對該英語作文的整體建議等,已經幫助許多學員提高了英語寫作能力。

G. 英語作文聽說教學比語法教學重要性

英語聽說讀寫是學生交流與實際運用的基本技能,目前,許多學生在經過整個階段的英語學習之後,運用英語仍然有限,很多學生對語言知識死記硬背,其實提高英語聽、說、讀、寫能力是有一定方法的。英語是一種交際工具,聽說讀寫都應在英語學習中佔有舉足輕重的作用。在英語教學中為了能夠提高學生的聽說讀寫基本技能,就需要對聽說讀寫的方法及運用有實際的了解。

英語聽說讀寫的的重要性及關系
一、提高英語聽說與讀寫的重要性

聽說讀寫是英語教學中的四大環節,也是英語學習後所要達到的目標。專家認為這四個方面要從課堂上慢慢的滲透,每個教學目標都不是一下子就學會的,就像小孩子走路,不可能一天就學會。聽是一切英語學習的根源,沒有聽就沒有說。他們兩個是相互促進的,而不讀肯定寫不出好的文章。聽說讀寫也是需要看授課的內容,對象以及時間的,當然也會有側重點,在不同的階段也是不同的,比如說小學,就會側重聽說讀,而升入初中的學生漸漸讀的少了,寫的多了,也許也就是學生們眼中的難,因為寫就是能反映出學生到底記沒記,記了多少知識,但是不論到了哪個環節,這四個方面的要求一個都不能少。

提高學生英語閱讀理解能力一般有兩個途徑,一個是通過課堂閱讀教學,二是通過廣泛的課外閱讀活動。其實不然,「閱讀理解」題目只是一種量化標准和測試手段。由於受到提醒因素的多重製約,同時由於我們平時接觸到的閱讀理解題目中,有些題目本身就不夠科學和准確,存在這樣那樣的問題,以至對學生產生誤導。學生的思路受到題目狹小范圍的限制,常有「做錯題」的困擾,故而閱讀活動索然無味,也就失去了興趣。這種答題的過程往往是一種被動適應題型的活動,而不是真正意義上的閱讀活動。而且,一味地做閱讀理解題目,學生很容易形成一種思維定勢,認為閱讀的目的就是答對後面的題目。猶豫閱讀每篇文章都有不同的含義,不像語法有規則可循,所以學生在屢次受到打擊後,對閱讀理解題會有一種盲然不知所措的感覺。毫無自信地做閱讀理解題目,更不可能會有興趣去做大量的課外閱讀了,提高閱讀理解能力也成了空談。

那麼,提高英語聽說讀寫的重要性,還能通過自身的實踐,認真體會,積極思考和親身體驗,提高一定的語感,才能有效地提高聽說和閱讀理解能力。

在英語聽說中,要注意遵循模仿性與創造性相結合的原則,因為語言學習需要模仿,但不僅僅使模仿,每個人說的話與別人說的話,以及同一個人在不同的時間,不同的地點,不同的場合下對不同的對象講的話是不可能完全一樣的。

二、提高英語聽說讀寫交流的重要性

英語的聽說也是交流重要之一,在英語的聽說中,學生的口語表達能力也尤為重要。例如:用所學的英語進行3—5分鍾的Free-talk,也是提高學生聽說水平的有效方法之一。交談的內容,形式不限,可以由教師創設提供交談內容,也可以讓學生自編。

從某種意義上說,獲得英語語感是學習英語成功的標志。一個單詞,一段句子往往都有重讀、弱讀、連讀、失去爆破,根據句意還分意群、停頓等。平時在閱讀中,多注意這些方面的問題,反復閱讀,北宋,爭取讀出英語味道。其次,還可以多聽外國人說話,包括他們的錄音磁帶,多讀多聽,形成語感。

可見,英語的聽說技能的交流是非常重要和必要的,學好英語的方法有很多很多,英語聽說水平還是會提高的。

三、在學習英語中聽說讀寫的關系

在英語的學習中,閱讀是獲得信息的重要方式,是英語學習者的一個重要技能。在當今的英語考試中有許多的閱讀練習題,但是基本上都必須在規定的時間內完成。遇到生詞困擾,許多學生都採用了「猜」單詞的意思,但是提高讀的方法,可以通過一些單詞或短語的暗示。瀏覽也是提高閱讀速度的一個重要方法。一些閱讀文章學生剛拿到就開始閱讀,甚至不知道文章的標題與全文的意思。英語讀的方法就是首先閱讀所給的問題,然後帶著問題讀文章。在閱讀的過程中,不能一個單詞一個單詞的讀,而應該學會刪除某些句子。有時甚至是和問題無關的某個段落,這樣做的一個好處是節省時間。

寫作能力是英語學習的四項基本技能之一。寫作能力的訓練有助於學生檢驗詞語和語法結構的運用,是一種綜合能力的培養。寫作訓練要堅持循序漸進的原則,從單詞的一句一段一篇的練習順序。通過拓展詞彙量,提高英語的寫作能力。句子是文章的基礎,通過造句過渡到短文。

首先從整體上看,聽、說、讀、寫是語言發展中密不可分的整體。在聽說讀寫中會碰到多種多樣的表達方式,課外閱讀還有益於聽和說。

聽、說、讀、寫訓練基本同步、相互結合。聽與讀相結合,聽與寫相互結合—將聽力理解與寫作技能結合起來,即把寫作限制在特定情景中,使寫作練習成為綜合型交際性語言練習;說與寫相結合—口語包含大量類似書面語的結構和措辭,提高學生口頭表達技能寫作準備;讀與寫相結合—寫的過程實際上模仿的過程,學生在閱讀過程中必須揣摩作者的寫作意圖、模仿作者的遣詞造句和篇章結構,總之,聽、說、讀、寫四種技能密不可分,相輔相成,需要進行大量的反復實踐練習,才能提高。

因此,聽說是緊密聯系在一起的,不可分割的。提高寫作的方法不僅在寫的基礎上,選擇一些典型的句型作為例句進行練習,再次縮寫或改寫文章,能幫助學生更好地理解文章,提高學生寫的技能。

English is a basic skill, students' communication and practical application at present, many students in the whole stage of learning English, English is still limited, many students of language knowledge by rote, actually improve English listening, speaking, reading and writing ability is a method. English is a communication tool, listening, speaking, reading and writing should play an important role in the study of English. In English teaching, in order to improve the students' listening, speaking, reading and writing skills, it is necessary to have a practical understanding of listening, speaking, reading, writing, listening, speaking, reading and writing.
Importance and relationship of English listening, speaking, reading and writing
I. improving the importance of listening, speaking, reading and writing in English
Listening, speaking, reading and writing are the four major parts of English teaching and learning, and it is also the goal of learning English. Experts believe that these four aspects should be slowly infiltrated from the classroom, each teaching goals are not all of a sudden, it is like a child to walk, it is not possible to learn one day. Listening is the root of all English learning, without listening to it. The two of them promote each other, but not to read and write a good article. Speaking and writing also need to look at the teaching content, object and time, there are also different emphasis in different stages, such as primary school, will focus on listening and reading, while junior high school students began to read a little, write more, perhaps it is difficult for the eyes of the students. Writing is to reflect the students really can not remember, remember how much knowledge, but no matter to which links the four aspects of the requirements of one less.
There are two ways to improve students' English reading comprehension ability, one is through classroom reading teaching, and the two is through extensive reading activities. In fact, "reading comprehension" is just a kind of quantitative standard and testing method. Due to multiple constraints remind factors, and since we are exposed to the reading comprehension questions, some of the title itself is not scientific and accurate, the existence of such problems, and even mislead the students. The thinking of students by subject narrow limits, often have "done wrong" problems, so flat and uninteresting reading activities will lose interest. The answer is often a passive adaptation problem, rather than the true sense of the reading activities. Moreover, blindly reading comprehension questions, students can easily form a kind of thinking, that is the purpose of reading right behind the subject. Hesitate to read each article has different meanings, unlike the grammar rules to follow, so students are repeatedly hit, the reading comprehension will have a blind feeling at a loss. Have no confidence to do reading comprehension questions, more can't be interested in doing a lot of extracurricular reading, improve reading comprehension ability has become empty talk.
So, improve the importance of English listening, speaking, reading and writing, but also through their own practice, serious experience, positive thinking and personal experience, improve a certain sense of language, to effectively improve the listening and reading comprehension.
In English, we should pay attention to following the imitation and creativity of the principle of combining, because language learning need to imitate, but not to imitate, and then everyone else said the words, and the same person in different time, at different places, the object is not the same in different situations. Is not exactly the same.
Two, improve the importance of English listening, speaking, reading and writing
English listening and speaking is one of the important communication, in English listening and speaking, students' oral expression ability is also very important. For example: using the English for 5 - 3 minutes of Free-talk, is also one of the effective ways to improve students' listening and speaking. The content of the conversation, the form is not limited, can be created by the teacher to provide conversation content, can also let the students.
In a sense, it is a sign of success to learn English. A word, a sentence often stressed, weak, linking, loss of blasting, according to the meaning of the sentence is divided into meaning group and halt. Usually in reading, pay more attention to these aspects of the problem, repeated reading, the Northern Song Dynasty, to read out the taste of english. Secondly, you can also listen to foreigners to speak, including their tape, read and listen more, to form a sense of language.
Visible, English listening and speaking skills of communication is very important and necessary, to learn English is a lot of ways, the English listening and speaking level or will improve.
Three, in learning English, listening, speaking, reading and writing
In the study of English, reading is an important way to get information, and it is an important skill for English learners. There are lots of reading exercises in the English test today, but they must be completed in the specified time. Encountered new words, many students have adopted the "guess" the meaning of the word, but to improve the reading method, you can by some words or phrases. Browsing is also an important way to improve the reading speed. Some students just get started to read the article, and even do not know the title of the article and the full text of the meaning. The way to read English is to read the questions first and then read the articles. In the process of reading, can not be a word a word reading, and should learn to delete some sentences. Sometimes even a paragraph that has nothing to do with the problem is to save time.
Writing ability is one of the four basic skills in English learning. The training of writing ability will help students to test the words and grammar.

H. 英語寫作在英語學習中的重要性

別急 會把英語寫作能力提高的
談談如何提高英語寫作能力

關鍵詞:英語寫作能力 原則 方法
引言:英語寫作能力是英語聽、說、讀、寫四種基本能力之一,英語寫作能有效地促進語言知識的內化。Swain(1985)提出「可理解輸出」假設,認為包括寫在內的語言產生性運用有助於學習者檢驗目的語句法結構和詞語的使用,促進語言運用的自動化,有效地達到了語言習得的目的。通過寫作,英語知識不斷得到鞏固並內在化,有利於英語技能的全面發展。但是,英語寫作又是廣大英語學習者最感頭痛的問題之一,且容易被教師忽視,筆者以為如何提高英語寫作能力值得我們認真研究。本文就此談談初淺的看法。
一、提高英語寫作能力的原則
(一)漸進性原則。要堅持「句—段—篇」的訓練程序,由易到難,循序漸進。在英語寫作的初始階段,要始終注意培養學生良好的寫作習慣,狠抓基本功訓練。在學生掌握了基本句型並能寫出簡單句子後,再要求學生根據一些體例寫出小段的文章。在段落寫作中要引導學生分析段落的結構、段落的中心句、句與句之間的邏輯關系、寫作手法等,這樣有利於下一步一篇文章的寫作。在文章寫作中要教會學生如何構思文章、如何運用正確的寫作技巧等。
(二)多樣性原則。要堅持訓練形式的多樣化及寫作文體的多樣性。從形式上而言,可以用回答提問的口頭作文,也可以用續寫故事;可以改寫課文,也可以仿寫課文;可以寫提綱訓練謀篇布局,也可以寫拓展段訓練發散思維……。從文體上而言,可以寫說明文、議論文、記敘文,也可以寫書信、便條、通知等實用文體。
(三)結合性原則。要堅持聽說讀訓練和寫訓練相結合。根據語言習得理論,學習者在學習時常先通過聽和讀吸取語言知識,從而了解別人的思想,再通過說和寫來表達自己的思想,讓別人了解自己。大量的聽說訓練能促進讀寫能力的提高。因此,寫與聽說讀緊密結合,進行多元化的能力訓練,可使學生的各項能力互相影響、互相滲透、互相促進。
(四)控制性原則。要堅持寫作前的指導,控制學生的漢語語言思維,發展英語語言思維。語言學習在很大程度上主要是模仿,而非隨心所欲地自由表達。教師要加強寫作前的指導,可給出範文讓學生模仿,以熟悉其語篇結構。同時要控制其漢語語言思維,盡可能讓學生習慣英語語言思維,以便於學生學習和掌握地道、正確的英語。
(五)持久性原則。要堅持長期、正確的寫作訓練。英語寫作能力的提高並非一朝一夕之事,而是一個長期的、艱巨的、漸進的過程。這就要求教師、學生都要有充分的思想准備,要有堅韌不拔的意志和必勝的信心。
二、提高英語寫作能力的方法。
(一)通過積累詞彙量,提高英語寫作能力。猶如土木磚石是建築的材料一樣,詞彙是說話寫作的必需材料,也是制約寫作能力提高的瓶頸。可以想像,如果要寫一個句子,10個單詞有8個單詞拼寫錯誤或拼寫不出,有2
個單詞用法不當,又怎麼能清楚地表達自己的思想呢?因此,在平時的教學中要強調學生記憶單詞,記住單詞的拼讀、用法、意思等。記憶單詞的方法有很多,各人有各人的記憶方法和習慣,可因人而異。教師可通過要求學生朗讀單詞、聽寫單詞、默寫單詞、遣詞造句、詞彙競賽等多種方法促進學生記單詞。記憶單詞是一個長期的反復的過程,要長期地堅持下去,才能不斷積累大量的詞彙,為英語寫作打下堅實的基礎。
(二)通過擴大閱讀量,提高英語寫作能力。古人雲「熟讀唐詩三百首,不會作詩也會吟」,這是漢語的一種學習方法,同樣可借鑒於英語寫作。多閱讀是學生增加接觸英語語言材料、接受信息、活躍思維、增長智力的一種途徑,同時也是培養學生英語思維能力、提高理解力、增強語感、鞏固和擴大詞彙量的一種好方法,有利於促進英語寫作能力的提高。在閱讀訓練中,教師要注意以下問題:一是指導閱讀方法,分析文章結構、中心思想、段落中心句、寫作方法等,幫助學生掌握各類文章的結構及寫作方法。二要精讀與泛讀相結合,通過推敲優秀的文章來學會寫作方法和選詞用詞;通過大量的泛讀來吸取信息量,擴大詞彙量。三要擴大閱讀量。提供閱讀的材料涉及面要廣,才能不斷擴大學生的知識面,使學生適應各種題材的寫作。
(三)通過提高聽說能力,提高英語寫作能力。英語聽說讀寫四種能力是相互影響、相互促進的,提高聽說能力必定會促進寫作能力的提高。要提高聽說能力關鍵在於創設一個良好的英語環境。教師要盡可能地用英語授課,多開展專門的聽說訓練,同時開展豐富多彩的課外英語活動,讓學生沉浸在英語海洋中去領略、去體會、去使用英語,久而久之,學生自然能使用正確的、地道的英語進行交談與寫作。
(四)通過重視寫作過程,提高英語寫作能力。長期以來,英語寫作成果教學法(THE PRODUCT
APPROACH)在我國居於主導地位,教師根據寫作的終成品來判斷寫作的成敗,重視寫作的技術性細節(如格式、拼寫、語法等),忽視寫作過程的指導。根據D.Rumechart和J.McClelland提出的連通論(Connectionism)理論,寫作包括寫前階段、具體寫作、文章修改三個基本過程,這三個過程並非是線性排列,而是循環往復,穿插進行的。教師只有重視加強對寫作三個過程的指導,才能更好地提高英語寫作能力。在寫作前階段,教師重在指導學生如何挖掘題材,訓練發散性思維,以及如何選擇材料、謀篇布局等。在具體寫作中,教師重在指導學生如何緊扣主題、運用正確的寫作方法等。在文章修改中,教師重在指導學生如何修改語法及用詞的錯誤。
(五)通過多寫英語摘要,提高英語寫作能力。英語摘要是把一篇文章的要點摘錄出來,用自己的語言使之獨立成一篇短文,這不是簡單的摘錄,而是忠於原文意思的再創作。寫英語摘要有利於學生了解原文的文化背景、理解原文的中心意思、弄清原文的篇章結構,從而提高學生的邏輯思維能力和謀篇布局能力。
(六)通過發展英語語言思維能力,提高英語寫作能力。英語寫作是運用已掌握的內在化語言知識和表達方法,通過思維進行外在化輸出的創作,因此英語語言思維能力在英語寫作中作用非凡。對於我國學生而言,在英語寫作中易受漢語語言思維的影響,難以直接用英語語言進行思維,不利於英語寫作能力的提高,因此發展其英語語言思維能力尤為重要。教師要注意對學生的英語語言思維進行多方位、多角度的訓練:要採取各種方法訓練學生英語語言思維的廣闊性、深刻性、發散性和創造性;要教會學生用英語思考問題、回答問題;要從訓練形象思維開始,逐步過渡到抽象思維訓練;在課文講解中要盡可能不用漢語翻譯而用英語解釋,消除漢語思維的影響;要努力創設良好的英語環境,在英語交際中發展英語思維能力。

寫好英語段落的三個標准

首先,一個段落必須有一個中心即主題思想,該中心由主題句特別是其中的題旨來表達。整個段落必須緊扣這個主題(stick or hold to the topic),這就是段落的統一性(unity)。其次,一個段落必須有若干推展句,使主題思想得到充分展開,從而給讀者一個完整的感覺,這就是完整性(completeness or adequateness)。再者,一個段落不是雜亂無章的,而是有機的組合,句子的排列順序必須合乎邏輯,從一個句子到另一個句子的過渡必須流暢(smooth),這就是連貫性(coherence)。下面我們就對這三個標准分別加以說明。
1、統一性
一個段落內的各個句子必須從屬於一個中心,任何游離於中心思想之外的句子都是不可取的。請看下例:
Joe and I decided to take the long trip we'd always wanted across the country. We were like young kids buying our camper and stocking it with all the necessities of life. Bella bakes the best rhubarb pie. We started out in early spring from Minneapolis and headed west across the northern part of the country. We both enjoyed those people we met at the trailer park. Joe received a watch at his retirement dinner. To our surprise, we found that we liked the warm southern regions very much, and so we decided to stay here in New Mexico.
本段的主題句是段首句,controlling idea(中心思想)是take the long trip across the country.文中出現兩個irrelevant sentences,一個是Bella bakes the best rhubarb pie,這一段是講的是Joe and I ,中間出現一個Bella是不合適的。還有,Joe received a watch at his retirement dinner這一句更是與主題句不相關。考生在四級統考的作文卷上常常因為造出irrelevant sentences(不相關語句)而丟分,值得引起注意。再看一個例子:
My name is Roseanna, and I like to keep physically fit. I used to weigh two hundred pounds, but I joined the YMCA for an exercise class and diet program. In one year I lost eighty pounds. I feel much better and never want to have that much weight on my five-feet frame again. I bought two new suitcases last week. Everyday I practice jogging three miles, swimming fifteen laps, lifting twenty-pound weights and playing tennis for one hour. My mother was a premature baby.
本段的controlling idea 是like to deep physically fit,但段中有兩個irrelevant sentences,一個是I bought two new suitcases last week,另一個是My mother was a premature baby.
從上面兩個例子可以看出,native speakers同樣會造出來irrelevant sentences.卷面上如果這種句子多了,造成偏題或離題,那問題就更嚴重了。
2、完整性
正象我們前面說得那樣,一個段落的主題思想靠推展句來實現,如果只有主題句而沒有推展句來進一步交待和充實,就不能構成一個完整的段落。同樣,雖然有推展句,但主題思想沒有得到相對圓滿的交待,給讀者一種意猶未盡的感覺。這樣的段落也不能完成其交際功能。例如:
Physical work can be a useful form of therapy for a mind in turmoil. Work concentrates your thoughts on a concrete task. Besides, it is more useful to work —— you proce something rather than more anxiety or depression.
本段的主題句是段首句。本段的兩個推展句均不能回答主題句中提出的問題。什麼是「a mind in turmoil」(心境不平靜)Physical work又如何能改變這種情況?為什麼它能起therapy的作用?讀者得不到明確的答案。由於四級統考的作文部分只要求寫一篇100~120個詞的三段式短文,每一段只有大約40個詞左右,因此,要達到完整就必須盡可能地簡明。例如:
It is not always true that a good picture is worth a thousand words. Often writing is much clearer than a picture. It is sometimes difficult to figure out what a picture means, but a careful writer can almost always explain it.
段首句所表達的主題思想是一種看法,必須有具體事例加以驗證。上述兩個推展句只是在文字上對主題作些解釋,整個段落內容空洞,簡而不明。如果用一兩個具體的例子的話,就可以把主題解釋清楚了。比如下段:
It is not always true that a picture is worth a thousand words. Sometimes, pictures are pretty useless things. If you can't swim and fall in the river and start gulping water, will you be better off to hold up a picture of yourself drowning, or start screaming 「Help」?
3、連貫性(coherence)
連貫性包括意連和形連兩個方面,前者指的是內在的邏輯性,後者指的是使用轉換詞語。當然這兩者常常是不可分割的。只有形連而沒有意連,句子之間就沒有內在的有機的聯系;反之,只有意連而沒有形連,有時行文就不夠流暢。
1)、意連
段落中句子的排列應遵循一定的次序,不能想到什麼就寫什麼。如果在下筆之前沒有構思,邊寫邊想,寫寫停停,那就寫不出一氣呵成的好文章來。下面介紹幾種常見的排列方式。
A.按時間先後排列(chronological arrangement)
We had a number of close calls that day. When we rose, it was obviously late and we had to hurry so as not to miss breakfast; we knew the dining room staff was strict about closing at nine o'clock. Then, when we had been driving in the desert for nearly two hours —— it must have been close to noon —— the heat nearly hid us in; the radiator boiled over and we had to use most of our drinking water to cool it down. By the time we reached the mountain, it was our o'clock and we were exhausted. Here, judgement ran out of us and we started the tough climb to the summit, not realizing that darkness came suddenly in the desert. Sure enough, by six we were struggling and Andrew very nearly went down a steep cliff, dragging Mohammed and me along with him. By nine, when the wind howled across the flat ledge of the summit, we knew as we shivered together for warmth that it had not been our lucky day.
本段從「rose」(起床)寫起,然後是吃早餐(「not to miss breakfast」, 「closing at nine o'clock」),然後是「close to noon」,一直寫到這一天結束(「By nine——」)。
B. 按位置遠近排列(spatial arrangement)。例如:
From a distance, it looked like a skinny tube, but as we got closer, we could see it flesh out before our eyes. It was tubular, all right, but fatter than we could see from far away. Furthermore, we were also astonished to notice that the building was really in two parts: a pagoda sitting on top of a tubular one-story structure. Standing ten feet away, we could marvel at how much of the pagoda was made up of glass windows. Almost everything under the wonderful Chinese roof was made of glass, unlike the tube that it was sitting on, which only had four. Inside, the tube was gloomy, because of the lack of light. Then a steep, narrow staircase took us up inside the pagoda and the light changed dramatically. All those windows let in a flood of sunshine and we could see out for miles across the flat land.
本段的寫法是由遠及近,從遠處(「from a distance」)寫起,然後「get closer」,再到(「ten feet away」),最後是「inside the pagoda」……當然,按位置遠近來寫不等於都是由遠及近。根據需要,也可以由近及遠,由表及裡等等。
C. 按邏輯關系排列(logical arrangement)
a. 按重要性順序排列(arrangement in order of importance)
If you work as a soda jerker, you will, of course, not need much skill in expressing yourself to be effective. If you work on a machine, your ability to express yourself will be of little importance. But as soon as you move one step up from the bottom, your effectiveness depends on your ability to reach others through the spoken or the written word. And the further away your job is from manual work, the larger the organization of which you are an employee, the more important it will be that you know how to convey your thoughts in writing or speaking. In the very large business organization, whether it is the government, the large corporation, or the Army, this ability to express oneself is perhaps the most important of all the skills a man can possess.
這一段談的是表達能力,它的重要性與職業,身份有關,從「not need much skill」或「of little importance」到「more important」,最後是「most important」。
b.由一般到特殊排列(general-to-specific arrangement)
If a reader is lost, it is generally because the writer has not been careful enough to keep him on the path. This carelessness can take any number of forms. Perhaps a sentence is so excessively cluttered that the reader, hacking his way through the verbiage, simply doesn't know what it means. Perhaps a sentence has been so shoddily constructed that the reader could read it in any of several ways. Perhaps the writer has switched tenses, or has switched pronouns in mid-sentence, so the reader loses track of when the action took place or who is talking. Perhaps sentence B is not logical sequel to sentence A —— the writer, in whose head the connection is clear, has not bothered to provide the missing link. Perhaps the writer has used an important word incorrectly by not taking the trouble to look it up. He may think that 「sanguine」 and 「sanguinary」 mean the same thing, but the difference is a bloody big one. The reader can only infer what the writer is trying to imply.
這一段談的是a writer's carelessness,先給出一個general statement作為主題句,然後通過5個 」perhaps」加以例證。
c. 由特殊到一般排列(specific-to-general arrangement)
I do not understand why people confuse my Siamese cat, Prissy, with the one I had several years ago, Henry. The two cats are only alike in breed. Prissy, a quiet, feminine feline, loves me dearly but not possessively. She likes to keep her distance from people, exert her independence and is never so rude as to beg, lick, or sniff unceremoniously. Her usual posture is sitting upright, eyes closed, perfectly still. Prissy is a very proper cat. Henry, on the other hand, loved me dearly but possessively. He was my shadow from morning till night. He expected me to constantly entertain him. Henry never cared who saw him do anything, whether it was decorous or not, and he usually offended my friends in some way. The cat made himself quite comfortable, on the top of the television, across stranger's feet or laps, in beds, drawers, sacks, closets, or nooks. The difference between them is imperceptible to strangers.
本段的主題句是段首句,它僅提出一個問題:為什麼兩只貓會被搞混。然後對兩者進行比較,末句才下結論。
2)、形連
行文的邏輯性常常要靠適當的轉換詞語及其他手段來實現。請讀下面這一段文字並找出文中用以承上啟下的詞語:
Walter's goal in life was to become a successful surgeon. First, though, he had to get through high school, so he concentrated all his efforts on his studies —— in particular, biology, chemistry, and math. Because he worked constantly on these subjects, Walter became proficient in them; however, Walter forgot that he needed to master other subjects besides those he had chosen. As a result, ring his junior year of high school, Walter failed both English and Latin. Consequently, he had to repeat these subjects and he was almost unable to graate on schele. Finally, on June 6, Walter achieved the first step toward realizing his goal.
本文中起承上啟下的詞語有兩種,一種是轉換詞語(transitional words or phrases),另一種是起轉換作用的其他連接手段(linking devices)。前者依次有:first, though, so, in particular, and, because, however, besides, as a result, both…and, consequently, and, finally.後者依次是:he, he, his, his, he, these, them, he, those, his, he, these, his. 本段中共有詞彙105個,所使用的轉換詞語及其他連接用語共26個詞,約占該段總詞彙量的四分之一。由此可見,掌握好transitions不僅對行文的流(smoothness)有益,而且對於學生在半個小時內寫足四級短文所要求的120個詞也是不無好處的。
一個段落里如果沒有transitions也就很難有coherence了。我們看下面一個例子:Speaking and writing are different in many ways. Speech depends on sounds. Writing uses written symbols. Speech developed about 500 000 years ago. Written language is a recent development. It was invented only about six thousand years ago. Speech is usually informal. The word choice of writing is often relatively formal. Pronunciation and accent often tell where the speaker is from. Pronunciation and accent are ignored in writing. A standard diction and spelling system prevails in the written language of most countries. Speech relies on gesture, loudness, and rise and fall of the voice. Writing lacks gesture, loudness and the rise and fall of the voice. Careful speakers and writers are aware of the differences.
本段中除了第6句開頭出現一個起過渡作用的」it」之外,沒有使用其他的過渡詞語。這樣,文中出現許多重復的詞語,全段讀起來也顯得生硬而不自然。如果加上必要的過渡詞語來修飾的話,這一段就成了下面一個流暢連貫的段落:
Speaking and writing are different in many ways. Speech depends on sounds; writing, on the other hand, uses written symbols. Speech was developed about 500 000 years ago, but written language is a recent development, invented only about six thousand years ago. Speech is usually informal, while the word choice of writing, by contrast, is often relatively formal. Although pronunciation and accent often tell where the speaker is from, they are ignored in wiring because a standard diction and spelling system prevails in most countries. Speech relies on gesture, loudness, and the rise and fall of the voice, but writing lacks these features. Careful speakers and writers are aware of the differences.
4、有損連貫性的幾種情況:
考生在寫作中經常出現下面幾種錯誤:
1、不必要的改變時態,比如:
In the movie, Robert Redford was a spy. He goes to his office where he found everybody dead. Other spies wanted to kill him, so he takes refuge with Julie Christie. At her house, he had waited for the heat to die down, but they come after him anyway.
2、不必要的改變單復數,比如:
Everybody looks for satisfaction in his life. They want to be happy. But if he seeks only pleasure in the short run, the person will soon run out of pleasure and life will catch up to him. They need to pursue the deeper pleasure of satisfaction in work and in relationships.
3、不必要的改變人稱,比如:
Now more than ever, parents need to be in touch with their children's activities because modern life has the tendency to cause cleavages in the family. You need to arrange family like it so that family members will do things together and know one another. You need to give up isolated pleasures of your own and realize that parents have a set of obligations to sponsor togetherness and therefore sponsor knowledge.
因此寫作中,一定要注意時態,人稱以及數的變化是否正確,要注意保持一致。
