一、写作技巧
变换句型结构,增加得分亮点
1.肯定不如双否好
Nothing is impossible.
(Everything is possible.)
2.陈述不如倒装妙
①以否定词开头,使用部分倒装语序。
Never
before had he earned so much money in his life.
归纳:其他的否定词(组),如seldom,hardly,little,no sooner等以及有否定意义的介词短语,如
in no case,at no time,by no means等放在句子开头时,句子用部分倒装语序。
Never will I forget you and
your kindness.
②以地点状语开头,使用完全倒装语序。
In front of the library stands
a hundred-year-old tree.(高级)
③“only+状语(从句)”置于句首,句子(主句)使用部分倒装语序,用来强调地点、时间、方式、条件等。
Only in this way can
I improve my English.
④“so+形容词/副词”置于句首,句子(主句)使用部分倒装语序。
So interesting was
the film that we all wanted to watch it a second time.
⑤as引导的倒装句。
Much as he enjoys it,
he doesn't want to buy it.
⑥Such is my understanding about
growing up.
3.主动不如被动巧
The ceremony was scheduled to be held on June 8, during which we
reviewed the past events and watched some videos about the heroic deeds of our
schoolmates in the battle against COVID-19. We are all deeply moved by
the ceremony, from which we realize that the sense of responsibility always
accompanies the process of our growth.
4.并列、复合得分高
有时为了使句子的连贯性更强,表达更为贴切、自然,我们可以在两个或多个简单句之间加上and,but,for(因为),or(或者,否则),while(而,却),not
only... but also...等并列连词(词组),使其成为并列句。有时则在两个或两个以上的简单句之间加上 because,although,when,where,why等连词,构成复合句。
①并列句
From this activity, we have realized that building up our body is of
great importance, and we have also learned more about "persistence
leads to success".
Very soon the children were busy popping the corn, while their
mother went out to buy the paper bags.
②定语从句
As for me, my English teacher is the person I respect most. She
is a warm-hearted and dedicated teacher, who has won general praise.
③状语从句
On the way, although some students fell behind, they kept running
until the finishing line.
When Mrs. Meredith heard of John's idea, she thought it was a
good one, too.
When he found that it was all to be his, he was so happy that he
could hardly speak, but his bright smiling face spoke for him.
④名词性从句
I got the news that your school will send teachers to my school for a
week-long summer exchange.
5.非谓语结构不能少
①用动词不定式短语
The purpose of this race was to inspire us students to pay more
attention to physical exercise.
I'm writing to ask for your help with our English short play
adapted from our English textbook.
②用现在分词短语
All the children came surrounding Bernard and they gave a basket
to Bernard.
There is a small river flowing through the farm.
③用过去分词短语
Surrounded by green trees, the farm is located at the
foot of the hill near our school.
④用独立主格结构
We worked in pairs, one picking peaches and the other carefully
putting them into a big box.
6.简单变身有妙招
①同位语
Mr Li, my English teacher, is one of respectable
people around us.
②形容词短语
The boy went home very late, hungry and tired.
③状语从句的省略
If possible, shall we meet you in your
office at 10 a.m. tomorrow?
While enjoying being close to nature, we
began to help pick peaches covering every tree.
④with复合结构
With you on the team, we are confident that we
can win the game.
