新概念英语写作方法
一、写作基础讲解与练习
1.掌握如何写好篇章的技巧:
(1)注意篇章结构,合理布局
开始部分(openingparagraph)——说出文中的要点、核心问题。
正文部分(Bodyparagraphs)——围绕主题开展叙述、讨论。
结尾部分(concludingparagraphs)——对全文的总结和概括。
要做到全文中心突出、段落之间必须是有机地联系,内容完整、连贯。前后呼应,祛除与主题无关的内容。
(2)确定主题句
主题句是对全文的概括,是文章的主旨。它能在文章中起到“画龙点睛”的作用。通常主题句出现在一篇文章的开头,而后,全文对主题句所提出的内容进行解释,扩展。
写主题句应注意以下几点:
①归纳出你要写的文章的几个要点
②提炼出一句具有概括性的话
③主题句应具有可读性,抓住、吸引读者。
下面我们通过例子来学习、体会“主题句”
