Written expression is the concentrated expression of English comprehensive ability, and it is a comprehensive examination of vocabulary grammar reading, word selection and sentence making, text structure and logical thinking. Generally, an experienced teacher can roughly judge a person's English level by reading a few words he has written in English. To really improve your English writing ability, you should not work hard on vocabulary usage and basic grammar, but at the same time accumulate materials through reading. From Chinese composition, we can know how difficult English composition is and how to train it.
How to write an English composition? Fortunately, according to a situation topic, it is required to write more than 10 sentences, about 120 words. Always read the hints and carefully examine the questions. 1). What style are you required to write? How to start and end? Is this a letter? Is it a picture composition? Or write an argumentative essay according to the chart? All styles have a roughly fixed structure. 2)) What are the main points, especially which verb to use? The basis of grading is whether all the points are involved and whether the expression is clear. After the main points are determined, it is important to use verbs well. You can mark the verbs to be used next to the original text or on the map, and it is best to bring in tenses in one step to determine whether the basic tenses of the full text are present tense or past tense. Directly express the form of words, omitting the drafting steps; 3) Expand the main points into sentences and pay attention to the coherence and consistency of the questions before and after. 4) Add necessary conjunctions to make the full text coherent and fluent, adjust and merge some sentences before and after, and write them as clauses or non-predicates. 5), read the full text, check for errors. Correct spelling and punctuation mistakes. Writing a composition is a complicated thinking process. Writing a top-ranked composition requires repeated revisions and careful thinking activities. There is no way to accumulate material. Only by reading more model essays and practicing more can we improve our skills, just as swimming and cycling can only be effective through constant practice, not pure theory.
2. How to write an English composition? Compared with other English topics, the comprehensive requirements of composition may be higher, so let's take the composition of this exam as an example to talk about how to write a good English composition. Let me talk about the problems that students often encounter in writing, and then I will give a general solution. Finally, contact the composition questions of this exam for actual combat. According to the requirements of our topic, it is a narrative, and it is a kind of talking with pictures. All the materials are in our pictures. Then we have to look at the picture carefully and choose the clue first. Obviously, the clock in the picture suggests that we choose time as the narrative clue. Secondly, we should choose a nervous question and tell it by remembering it at night. That's all in the past. So starting is a difficult thing, and you may not know where to start. Let me give you an example here. Our class has planned to visit the old people living in the nursing home. We are all eager to go there. We will do it as soon as possible. This moment has really come today, so you can imagine how happy we are. At about eight o'clock in the morning, we left the school with tools in our hands and walked to the Korean-Korean store nursing home. We don't have to describe the situation on the road too much We will focus on describing the situation of nursing homes. It was about 9 o'clock when we got there. Although we are a little tired, none of us want to have a rest. As some old people seldom come out, some of us help them walk around and breathe fresh air. Some people help them wash clothes, others sweep the floor. Most of us have never done such a thing at home, so we may not have done it well, but we all tried our best. At about 1 1:55, we had lunch with them, and our monitor stood and blessed them devoutly for us. At lunch time, we were all very happy. After lunch, we had a party with those old people. We had prepared some songs for them before we came here. As we expected, they were all very satisfied with our program. We didn't perform well all May, but the smiles on their faces made us very happy. It's time to say goodbye Be sure to pay attention to the finishing work. Happy times always pass quickly. Although we didn't notice that we had been here for a long time, the clock on the wall clearly informed us that it was time to go home. So we have to say goodbye to those old people. On the way home, we all said it was a meaningful day, and we decided to come back as soon as we had time.
I wish you progress in your studies.
3. How to write an English composition? First of all, you should make your point clear, and it is best to state your point in the first paragraph.
If your English is not good, make sentences as simple as possible and don't make grammatical mistakes. On this basis, plus a few Zhuang language clauses, I believe the composition score will not be low! The article should be segmented, not too long, or the teacher will faint.
It is also a good idea to echo from beginning to end. It is useful for you to think of these hopes for the time being.
Just recite some templates, such as the sentence pattern at the beginning of the first chapter: 1- 1 On legislation: first introduce other people's different views, and then put forward your own views or be biased towards a certain one, which is suitable for controversial topics, such as (for example) [1]. When asked. .., most people say.
. But my ideas/opinions are a little different. [2]. When it arrives.
. Some people think that.
. Others think/claim that the opposite is correct. Maybe there is some truth in both views/statements, but (I prefer the latter). ) [3]. Now, people generally think/generally think/hold/admit.
. They claim/believe/argue. But I want to know/doubt.
.. 1-2 phenomenon method leads to the phenomenon or problem to be analyzed, and then comments. For example [1]. The recent rise in the issue of/(phenomenon). Has aroused public concern. [2]. The recent debate about the problem/phenomenon of ... 。
Has become the focus. [3]. Inflation/corruption/social inequality is another new and painful fact that we must learn to face now/constantly. -to be continued! ! 1-3 viewpoint method-cut to the chase and put forward your own views on the issues to be discussed. For example: [1]. History has never changed ... as evidence.
Nowhere in the world/China has the problem/idea of ... more noticeable/popular than in 2000. [2] Now more and more people are beginning to realize/accept/(realize) this.
[3]. Now people are more and more aware of the necessity of ...
Now people are more and more aware of the importance of sports.
[4]. Maybe it's time to re-examine this attitude/idea.
1-4 citation method-first introduce famous sayings or representative opinions, thus leading to the opinions to be discussed in the article! For example: [1]. "Knowledge is power." This is what bacon said. This sentence is recognized by more and more people. "Education should not end with graduation." This is the view of a great American philosopher. Now more and more people agree with him. [2]."。
"We often hear such statements/words like that/words like this. In our own time, we are used to hearing such traditional plains.
. 1-5 comparison method —— By comparing two different tendencies and viewpoints in ancient and modern times, the viewpoint to be discussed in this paper is obtained. For example: [1]. Over the years,
It is thought so. But now people have a new view. With the growth.
People.
. . [2]. People used to think. (In the past, 20%.
But now people share this new. 1-6 storytelling method-tell a short story first to arouse readers' interest and lead to the theme of the article. For example: [1]. I have read/learned about it in the newspaper. . The phenomenon.
Has aroused public concern. [2] I have a friend. Should he?
. ? We often encounter such difficulties in our daily life. [3]. Once upon a time, there was a man. This story may be (incredible), but it still has practical significance now. 1-8 questioning method-first used the questions discussed or answered to draw out his own views, which is suitable for controversial topics. Example: should/what.
? Options.
There are great differences, some. Others.
But in my opinion.
The second chapter analyzes the causes and results of the middle sentence 3- 1- 1. Basic reason-when analyzing a thing, use this sentence pattern to explain its basic or various reasons. For example: [1]. Why? ? First, have another drink.
[2]. The answer to this question involves many factors. First, have another drink.
Another one.
[3]. Many factors, including physical and psychological influence. . Both individuals and society contribute.
.3-1-2 Another reason->; After analyzing the basic reasons, add a secondary or more important time! For example: [1]. Another important factor is. . [2].。

5. How to write an English composition? The basic steps of writing an article are reading and analyzing the topic.
An argument, both sides of the argument is always the most powerful. Make an outline, just a simple outline.
Make an outline in four or five minutes at most, unless it is a very abnormal topic that takes a long time to think. When writing a thesis, I don't know what everyone is thinking, but when I write this main sentence, I usually think of examples in my mind.
When writing an example, think quickly about the wording of the ending sentence of this paragraph. When writing the final sentence, think about how to write the main sentence of the next paragraph.
This is faster! Finally, check. Some people have the habit of checking, I don't have this habit, but if you have time, just check grammar, spelling and so on.
Step two. Regarding the writing structure of the article, China's article is an eight-part essay, but in fact, English articles are eight-part essays. This is confirmed by reading foreign papers for nearly a year.
Why do you see foreign things faster and faster now? Mainly because their articles are so clear and easy to understand, the first sentence of each paragraph is the main sentence of this paragraph, then the example sentence and then the ending sentence. Arguments, arguments and arguments are particularly easy to find, so a long article can be read quickly. So I said, write an article like this. They foreigners think this is a good article. If you take the TOEFL IELTS GRE, you have to write like this in order to get a high score.
Therefore, it should be strictly remembered that the structure of an article should be like this: the first paragraph: clearly state the center and have a central sentence; The second paragraph: argument (positive argument) 1. If something is important, why is it important? To give the first reason, this paragraph must have a main sentence! 2. Argument: For example, use practical examples to prove why there is such a reason. 3. Ending sentence: In fact, the ending sentence is the paraphrase of the main sentence of this paragraph. Just say it again in another way! The third paragraph: the second paragraph argument (positive argument) 1. If something is important, why is it important? If you give a second reason, you must have the main sentence of this paragraph! 2. Argument: For example, use practical examples to prove why there is such a reason.
3. Ending sentence: In fact, the ending sentence is the paraphrase of the main sentence of this paragraph. Just say it again in another way! The fourth paragraph: argument three paragraphs (negative argument) 1. Something is important, and nothing will have any bad consequences. To put forward a bad consequence, you must have the main idea of this paragraph! 2. Argument: This is just an example. Give an example of a bad result without this thing. 3. Ending sentence: In fact, the ending sentence is the paraphrase of the main sentence of this paragraph. Just say it again in another way! The fifth paragraph: the ending paragraph: clearly reiterate the center, must, must, must have an ending sentence! The ending sentence is the central sentence of this article. Here, in this structure, the first paragraph must be there, and it must be there in any case! From the second paragraph to the fourth paragraph, you can say as many reasons as possible. There are generally at least two reasons. These two reasons can be one positive and one negative, or two positive. I encourage you to write a negative reason, mainly 1. Consider the number of words; 2. Considering the rigor of argumentation logic.
At the end of the last paragraph, generally speaking, foreign universities can write papers without the ending paragraph, but if they take the TOEFL IELTS GRE, they should try to write the ending paragraph when time permits to make the article more complete. Step three, if the number of words is not enough, the number of words is actually very good. One is that you can spell words with examples, and the other is that you can spell words with positive and negative arguments.
For example, if you write two reasons and find that the number of words in two natural paragraphs is still not enough, you can write an anti-paragraph, turn two paragraphs into three paragraphs, demonstrate an argument and increase the number of words. The fourth step, the revision of the article and the mutual revision of the article will definitely improve. You can modify it yourself or find someone else to modify it.
I usually modify it myself, but I have written a lot, and I have written and written, and there is nothing to change. If you want to revise the article, you'd better form a writing group with a good package at the beginning of writing. Let's write together, write the same topic, pinch time together, practice as a model test every time, and then correct each other. This is more effective.
If you write a different topic, people are not in the mood to read your article, and they are not familiar with your topic, so it is not easy to make good suggestions. As for mutual change groups, there will be such groups now. I have participated in this group for one day before, and I also made a post like others, such as "First work on a certain topic, welcome to approve bricks". I found that either no one changed it or someone else changed it for you in a perfunctory way, mainly in the hope that you would help him.
For such an exchange group, if we can join a very good and interactive group and have a well-organized and active team leader, then we will make great progress. So if you want to attend, find a good one, or don't attend at all.
Step five. There are many examples, collections and encyclopedias of composition arguments on the Internet. Download two or three of these things and just recite a little. Always remember that examples are not the key, but your arguments and the way you demonstrate them. Examples only enrich your argumentation process, and examples don't mean everything. It is wrong to spend 5 hours reciting examples and 30 minutes writing articles.
Recite a bunch of examples and find it useless and useless. Therefore, don't always spend a lot of time visiting forums and collecting examples as an excuse. In fact, you just don't want to write or practice.
You still have to force yourself to write. There are two main sources of general examples: one is the long-term accumulation of extensive reading at ordinary times; Second, in order to cope with the exam, I temporarily downloaded examples from the Internet and memorized them.
You can use both methods to see which is more effective for you. Step six. Your writing is too simple. Don't be afraid of simplicity for superficial things. Simple sentences don't mean that they must be naive.
Some foreign writers have simple things and never use complicated sentences, but what they write has to be admired. So don't try to make your article thoughtful through complex sentences. You know, thoughts are thoughts, and sentence patterns are just appearances.
If you have an idea.
