上一講中我們介紹了段落的擴展模式,也就是說,我們已經了解了文章中間一部分的敘述模式。根據四六級寫作的特點,一般首段和尾段都要自己補上,那么怎么才能寫好首尾段呢,下面我介紹一下,首尾段的寫作方式。
1.首段的寫作
首段的寫作方式一般為:
運用事實性信息、調查或故事等引出話題,2)導入主題,然后提出自己的觀點,也就是文章的論點
首段開篇的方式常見的有:
1) 諺語法
由于諺語一般已經被大家所接受,用諺語提出自己的觀點也容易被讀者所接受。
As the saying goes, 'Money makes the mare go', but there are many things we can't buy with money, such as time and true love. …
2) 定義法
定義法是通過對文章中的關鍵詞做一些簡單或正面或反面的解釋,限定其范圍,這樣比較有利于引出主題。
'Practice makes perfect' is an old saying. It tells us that it does not matter if we are clumsy at doing something. As long as we keep on trying and practicing, we will do a good job in the end.
3) 提問法
通過提問一個或一連串的問題,可以激發讀者的興趣,從而引出主題。
a. Do you have many friends? Are they similar to you or different from you? Which kind of friends do you prefer?
b. What is a good student? Different people may have different answers to this question.
4) 概括法
概括法指先總結文章內容所涉及的現狀,然后引出主題。
In recent years, with the development of science and technology, the Internet has come into more and more homes and is playing a more and more important role in our work and daily life. It has become a must to us, but at the same time, Internet has also brought with it a lot of problems.
5) 故事法
故事法指用簡單有趣的故事激發讀者的興趣,從而提出自己的觀點。如下面'Is Stress a Bad Thing?'
