The Structure of English Writing Articles
1. How to write a good text structure in English composition Generally speaking, there are three steps in learning English writing, which cannot be completely separated.

First, learn the basic vocabulary and grammar of this language. At this time, learners have not mastered the basic usage of this foreign language, so they are still in the basic stage of learning a language. At this time, there is generally no writing training, and even if there is, it only plays the role of practicing vocabulary and grammar. Generally speaking, this kind of exercise is very simple, emphasizing that learners must use correct vocabulary and grammar.

Second, both language and content are equally important. At this time, learners have mastered some basic vocabulary and grammar of the language and can express their simple ideas in the language. At this time, writing practice can achieve two purposes: (1) continue to enhance the mastery of the language; (2) Express certain ideas in English. In the concrete study practice, the two are actually inseparable. Many junior three students started to keep diaries in English, which is actually the stage.

Third, mainly emphasize the content. When learners have a certain grasp of the vocabulary and grammar of a foreign language and can use it to express relatively complex ideas, they basically enter the third stage. At this time, language is not the biggest obstacle, and how to write good content has become the top priority. At this stage, learners are concerned about how to choose materials and how to organize articles. Some people say that only this third stage of writing is real writing. This statement may be biased, but successful writing must reach this third stage.

If you find it difficult to write complete sentences, you are still in the first stage. Don't rush to write a long speech at this time, even though some of your ideas may be very profound. What you have to do at this time is to pay attention to the accumulation of language and the usage of common words and sentence patterns. In addition, doing some translation exercises properly can also help you improve your language use ability and prepare for improving your writing ability. We have a lot of exercises in the translation section, which is actually good for improving your writing ability. Besides, reading more books and cultivating a sense of language can also make some preparations for improving writing ability.

Therefore, at this stage, we can start from the following three aspects: accumulating language materials, doing more translation exercises and reading exercises. With the improvement of your language ability, you will gradually enter the second stage, and then you won't worry about writing sentences.

2. How to learn the overall structure of an article in English writing mainly depends on what genre of article you write. Of course, nowadays it is generally argumentative. First of all, you should pay attention to the logical relationship between sentences. For example, every sentence in a paragraph revolves around a theme. So at the beginning of this paragraph, you should make sure what this paragraph is about, that is, all sentences should revolve around this central idea. A paragraph has its central idea, and the whole article naturally has its central idea, so the central idea of the article must be determined, and the thought will not run around when writing.

Specifically, the most important thing in sentence cohesion is logical relationship, and logical relationship can best reflect conjunctions, such as first, second and there, so, anyway, never, in short and so on. You should know how to use conjunctions to straighten out the logical relationship between your sentences, so that the written article will not appear fragmented, but a whole.

It should be noted that the structure of Chinese is indeed scattered, which is determined by the grammatical composition of Chinese. It is indeed very different from English, a link-oriented language, but I believe that good Chinese articles are no different from other languages in semantic links.

Now let's talk about the specific methods to improve the treatment of inter-sentence structure. A very effective way is to link scattered sentences with clauses, because a good English article has a large number of clauses, attributive clauses, predicative clauses, appositive clauses and so on. Write an example:

Many students think that going to Internet cafes is not a good way. Going to the internet cafe will cost us a lot of money.

This is a loose sentence. If you want it to look structured, you can change it to.

Many students think it is harmonious to go to the cafe because it spends money quietly. Or many students think that it is not good to go. The internet cafe built for it will cost us a lot of money.

In short, we should use clauses and complex sentences instead of short sentences.

3. How to write 1 in junior high school English composition structure. Do a * * * Question Steps: 1 Exam: Examine the details of composition genre (type), tense, person, etc. 2-column outline (structural framework of the article): divided into several paragraphs and the general content of each paragraph; 3. Writing: supplement the main points on the basis of the outline; 4 review: 2 times-1 times to check spelling, grammar, punctuation and other issues; Read it silently for 2 times and check whether the sentence is fluent and coherent by language sense; 5 Transcription: No changes are allowed.

Second, the general framework of the composition: the article is divided into three paragraphs: (1) Summary: strong generality, introducing the theme in two sentences at most; (2) Text-main content: strong hierarchy, with transitional conjunctions. Expand up to 3 aspects, each with up to 2 sentences; (3) Ending: Close to the theme, ending in two sentences, subliming as much as possible.

Beginning: topic sentence-tell the main points and core issues in the text; Medium-length: supporting sentences-describe and discuss the topic with examples, facts or data; Conclusion: Concluding sentence-summarizing and generalizing the full text. 1. Learning English As we all know, English is becoming more and more popular/important. Many people say it is difficult to learn English. But I don't think so. 2. Become a volunteer for the 26th Universiade. As we all know, the 26th Universiade will be held soon. I want to be a volunteer. Volunteers play an important role in the 26th Universiade. I never took part in the trip organized by the school last week. Third, the text: skillfully use conjunctions according to the order or time sequence of things (1) first, second, third 2) first, then/next, after/next, and finally 3) soon, suddenly, at that moment, one, from now on, at the same time, no.

Until, before, after, when, although, the period not only means juxtaposition. Besides, they are both.

Either. Either, neither.

On the one hand, it's not ... on the other hand, it's an example or supplement 1). For example, 2) What's best/what's more/what's worse? But, although, it's not (of) to express gratitude, because, because it means the result, so. That, like this.

That is, the list items are arranged in order, so that the list items are the same. As.

Make the finishing point at the end, echoing 1 from beginning to end. Echo the beginning, reiterate your point of view again, and pay attention to avoid repeating sentence patterns. 2. Classic phrases and sentence patterns at the end: finally.

The last sentence, in a word, in short,

In short, we hope to do our best. . I believe that if we can do it.

, 。 Will be.

. What a good one.! /how about it?

! Let's try our best to keep healthy. In short, it is important to form good habits and keep healthy. Help others I believe that if we can help others, the world will become more and more beautiful. Be a green consumer [k? Ensju? m? ] Consumers Let's try our best to be green consumers. In a word, we need to protect the environment. How beautiful beijing beijing is! Why not go to Beijing and have fun? .

4. IELTS writing: How to sort out the structure of the article IELTS writing is the most important test form in the IELTS test. It is understood that most candidates did not clear up the structure of the article at the beginning of the writing process, but this is a very serious mistake. The following is a brief talk between the editor and everyone about the problems that should be paid attention to in improving English writing and the structure of the article. The structure of English written writing has very strict standards, that is, the beginning, the theme and the end. You should put forward your own views (thesis statement) in the opening paragraph. The main body can be divided into three to five paragraphs, supplemented by sub-arguments, and finally summarized, restated their own views and echoed the starting point. If it is a small composition (300-400 words), such as TOEFL and IELTS, it is generally more appropriate to write three paragraphs in the text. If you write too much, there won't be so many reasons. Write less. It seems unconvincing. Therefore, this structure is usually called five-paragraph format, which is the most commonly used structure in English writing. Several common problems in China: 1. The beginning is very long, I don't know what to say, and I put a bunch of gorgeous sentences with no substantive content. Then suddenly jump to your own point of view. The beginning is confused with the first paragraph of the main paragraph. Some students will directly write "I agree with you because …" to give their opinions, and then directly start writing the first reason. Such an article is unclear in structure and will be labeled unclear in the eyes of reviewers. If you make two more grammatical mistakes, you won't want to turn over. 3. If the main body is not segmented, it will all turn over. Let the readers sort it out by themselves. English is different from Chinese. English is the responsibility of the author and Chinese is the responsibility of the reader. In other words, when writing English, the author needs to ensure that readers can understand what he has written. If the reader doesn't understand, it's your author's responsibility. In Chinese, it is just the opposite. I can write whatever I want. It's your readers' problem that you don't understand. 5. There is a topic sentence in the main paragraph, but there is no further explanation for the topic sentence, but a direct example will make the article very abrupt. 6. The article has a beginning, but the author does not express his opinions at the beginning, but expresses his opinions at the end. There is also controversy about this writing method, and English speakers are also debating whether all people in the world should write in English style. The general conclusion is that it depends on your readers. If your readers are native speakers of English, you'd better write according to their habits. Don't pursue mystery. You must wait until the end to express your opinion. For TOEFL IELTS composition, it is better to behave yourself. For other articles, the teacher asked me not to give my opinion at the beginning, but at the end.

5. What are the general writing routines and structures of English composition? When it comes to English style, we say that every article has its own routines and patterns, and so does argumentative writing.

An argumentative essay must first have the structure of an argumentative essay. When it is reflected in the IELTS test, it is generally divided into two types: equivalent type (that is, discussing the advantages and disadvantages of the views given in the topic) and one-sided type (that is, clearly agreeing with one aspect of the views). The writing structure used by these four students is equally divided.

In class, some students once asked such a question: "Do foreigners prefer one-sided debates?" I think these students' high-scoring compositions are the best answer to this question. Of course, this does not mean that foreigners prefer to share equally.

IELTS is a scientific test with strict grading standards. As long as it is a good article, you can get high marks.

In addition, these students make good use of the classic sentence sets. For example, four students, such as,, Ye, and so on, have very different attitudes towards this issue, and their views on this controversial issue are also very different, expressing the concept of "different opinions", which naturally leads to both positive and negative views.

The accuracy and diversity of words are also worth mentioning. The IELTS topic that Huang Wenting encountered was "Should the punishment for the driver who caused the accident be increased?" .

When referring to "punishment", the verbs she uses include "impose … on", "execute" and "carry out". Ma Tingting's exam question is "Is economy the only criterion for evaluating a country's success?" .

When expressing the concept of economy, the terms she uses include "economic factors, economic growth, economic development, domestic economy, sound economic system" and so on. This ability to express the same meaning with different words is a clear requirement of IELTS writing standards for candidates, and it is also a writing principle that we have always emphasized to students.

The diversity of sentence patterns is also one of the clear requirements in IELTS writing standards. Let's look at the sentence patterns in the composition of high-scoring students.

Liao Li's exam is "Animal Experiment", and the sentence patterns used are object clause, non-restrictive attributive clause, cause adverbial clause, conditional adverbial clause, formal subject, complex sentence and so on. Ye's exam question is "Should we abandon the original culture after immigration?" The sentence patterns she uses are time adverbial clause, conditional adverbial clause and clause as objects.

A prominent feature of her article is the frequent use of formal subject, which is a classic English sentence pattern as we all know. To sum up, the key to the high scores of these students' compositions lies in the accuracy of language grammar.

Seven-point essays must ensure that there are no low-level mistakes, such as singular and plural, tense, which is the grammatical basis. Words must be changeable, and so must sentence patterns.

It is very important to recite complete sets of sentences before the exam and design your own writing template, so that you can easily use classic sentence patterns in the exam and save time. I hope that the candidates in the back usually do more induction and thinking, and get twice the result with half the effort when taking the exam.

6. Find out the summary of common words, sentence patterns and article structure in English writing. Want to write a good article in CET-4 and CET-6? Then choosing words is a very important link.

Proper use of vocabulary can not only make the article more vivid, but also make the article a bright spot in grading. The following provides beautiful words and examples that can be used frequently in 30 groups of exams for CET-4 and CET-6 candidates.

Using them instead of your existing common words in the exam can instantly light up plain articles. 1. Individuals, figures, and folks replace people. Person 2: positive, favorable, rosy, promising, perfect, pleasant, excellent, outstanding, superior replaces good. 3: dreamy, unfavorable, poor, unfavorable, and sick (harmful) replaces bad. If bad is a predicative, you can be less impressive, instead of a group of college students playing games. Enjoy romance with girls/boys or passively kill time in the dormitory. Therefore, near graduation, they found that their academic performance was not so impressive. 4. An army, an ocean, a large group, a large group, many, if not most. Note: be careful when using more, if not most, there must be words after the more.

Many people, if not most people, have this idea ... Similarly, use most, if not all, instead of some 6. Have the idea of …, adopt the attitude of …, hold the view that … is generally recognized (because it is written, it is necessary to add) 7. Affairs, business. For me, from my own point of view, instead of 1 1: increase (ly), growth replaces more and more (note that there is no such form as growingly. So when modifying nouns, use increase/increase. Modifying adjectives. Adverbs are increasing. Something is becoming more and more popular. Something is becoming more and more popular with the progress of something ... beneficial, reward instead of helper 14. Shoppers, customers, consumers, buyers and substitute customers 15. Excessive, extreme, deliberate replacement of very 16. It is almost unnecessary and inevitable.

If the replacement is not checked, 17 can be avoided. Something has a great influence on * * *, something has a great influence on * * * instead of * * being interested in/* * * *. Be interested in … attract someone's attention instead of attracting someone's attention, degenerate, sphere instead of independence, hint, fear, hint, fear. Cause, cause, cause, trigger instead of cause 22. There is an important reason behind something ... the reason of something. Desire replaces the need to pay attention instead of attention. 25. Bear it in minutes. Instead of memory 26. Enjoy, possess instead of possess (note that the process is the process) 27. Interaction replaces communication. Dissatisfaction with something replaces opposition and disagreement with something. Just give a worrying example instead of for example, for example, 30. Almost/almost impossible, replace almost/almost impossible 1. It has the following advantages. 2) It brings us many benefits. 3) It brings us many benefits. For example, books are like friends. They can help us understand the world better, and they can open our minds and broaden our horizons. Therefore, the extensiveness of reading is of great benefit to us. 2. The reason is 1) There are three reasons. 2) The reasons are as follows. 3). The reason is obvious. The reason for this is not difficult to find. 5) The reason for this is that. We have every reason to believe.

For example, there are three reasons for the changes in our lives. First, people's living standards have improved. Second, most people are suitable for each other, and what they need and like can't help. Last but not least, more and more people like to enjoy modern life. Note: If candidates are not sure about writing the first sentence, they can rewrite it into two sentences. Great changes have taken place in our lives. There are three reasons for this. This kind of writing can avoid expression errors in application.

(1) It does more harm than good. For example, everything in TV programs is also harmful to us. If we spend too much time watching TV, it will damage our health and make us lazy. 4. Important, necessary, difficult, convenient and possible (1). Maybe) for * * *. Do sth. We think it necessary to do something. 3) It plays an important role in our life. For example, computers are now used everywhere, whether in government, schools or businesses. Soon, every family will have a computer. We have every reason to say that users are playing an increasingly important role in our lives, and we have entered the computer age. 5. It means 654. We should take some effective measures. We should do our best.
