1, use passive instead of active appropriately, so as to reflect the facts more objectively. Don't always use we/I at the beginning of a sentence (for example, use Attention should to at the end of a sentence instead of we should to note it). Give a classic ending to the last paragraph of the sixth grade composition in June 2004: Therefore, it is time for a service industry like this to implement some applicable methods. Therefore, its competitive advantage will be effectively improved.

2. Be good at using parenthesis, such as putting adverbs and conjunctions in the middle, usually after the subject, verb or auxiliary verb, with commas on both sides.

For example, how/there/example/I believe is inserted in the middle, usually after verbs and auxiliary verbs, with commas on both sides.

However, others hold such an attitude …

3, learn to change words, change images, and specifically replace those that are too broad. Generally speaking, there should be no good, bad, many things, thoughts, people, opinions, etc. For example, in the above example, applicable replaces proper, approaches replaces way, and implementation replaces execute. Improving one's competitive advantage replaces enhancing one's competitiveness.

Let's take an excellent composition (14) as an example to see how he uses various writing skills.

Computers and me

I will never forget the day when my mother bought me a computer as a birthday present. It attracted me so much that I was addicted to searching a lot of useful information on Google and enjoying the ocean of melodious classical music. I couldn't sleep that night and felt that the whole world was mine.

Very replace very much

Thrilling replaces excitement.

Hit sb. hard with Thursday instead of sb. Be interested in sth.

Google replaces search

One replaces a lot.

The arrival of the new century has witnessed the increasing popularity of computers. With the progress of science and technology, computers, as a fashion, have flooded into today's society, attracting growing individuals. It is no exaggeration to say that we have been largely overwhelmed by them!

Witnessing the dawn of the new century is a wonderful sentence to describe what happened in a certain period.

More and more popular instead of more and more popular.

Consistent with … is a very real word, which means "consistent with …", not consistent with …

Progress replaces development.

Inflow replaces entry.

Replace the present (current) with the current.

Be attractive to sb. Replace sb. Be interested in sth.

Growing individuals have replaced more and more people.

Say something without exaggeration.

First of all, we can freely search for the information we want at any time. Gradually, our knowledge will be enriched and our horizons will be greatly broadened. In addition, online entertainment is conducted by chatting, playing games or sending emails.

As a start, not a start.

We are free to use parentheses to write.

Our knowledge will be enriched and our horizons will be broadened. It uses a wonderful passive voice.

English writing is a complicated thinking process, which requires high cognitive ability, thinking ability, language ability, organizational ability and self-monitoring ability. At the same time, it is also a necessary practice and an important means of communication in learning English. English writing helps to improve the accuracy of using English; It can expand the scope of language use and promote the flexible use of language; Can cultivate the ability of logical thinking and problem analysis. Especially for reading, listening and speaking in English learning. Therefore, people pay more and more attention to English writing. No matter what kind of composition you write, you should choose words and make sentences first, and then do paragraphs and compositions. Therefore, we should learn and acquire the knowledge and ability of choosing words, making sentences, organizing paragraphs and planning articles.

First, choose words

Words are the raw materials for making sentences. Pay attention to the following points when choosing words.

1. Differentiate styles. English words can be divided into written style and spoken style. For example: laboratory-laboratory, mathematics-mathematics, etc. The former is written language and the latter is spoken language. When writing a composition, you should give priority to written language and use less spoken language.

2. Clear part of speech. English words are diverse, and several words come from the same root. For example, die (verb), death (noun) and death (adjective) all mean "death", but their parts of speech are different and their usage is different.

3. Use of idioms. Idioms are fixed phrases used for a long time, such as "she went to school", and "she went to school" means going to school (doing things). The last sentence has a definite article and its meaning is very different.

4. Identify the meaning of words. There are many synonyms in English, and there are polysemy. For example, "where" and "if" both mean "whether". In addition, the word If can mean "whether" or "if".

5. Pay attention to spelling. Spelling mistakes, capitalization, punctuation and other problems often occur in writing.

Second, make sentences

Sentence is the smallest unit to express meaning. Pay attention to the following points when making sentences.

1. Write the correct sentences

(1) Subject and predicate are complete. Remember the basic sentence patterns of five simple sentences: 1s+vi, 2s+v+p3s+vt+p4s+vt+oi+od5s+vt+o.+o.c.

(2) The word order is appropriate, and some English word orders have rules to follow. For example, always, never, often, rarely, these frequency adverbs are usually placed in front of action verbs and behind connecting verbs, auxiliary verbs or modal verbs.

(3) the relationship is consistent. This includes the consistency of subject-predicate relationship, the consistency of pronoun reference relationship, the consistency of tense relationship before and after sentences, and so on.

2. Write beautiful sentences

The criteria for a good sentence are as follows.

(1) completed. Completeness is the first point of a good sentence. A complete sentence expresses a single and complete meaning. It does not contain irrelevant meaning, nor does it express incomplete meaning.

(2) consistency. Coherence refers to the clear and reasonable connection between the parts of a sentence. Words and parts in a sentence should be properly related, and the relationship between them should be very clear.

(3) simplicity. There should be no unnecessary words in the sentence. As long as the meaning is fully expressed, the fewer words, the better. Using too many words will only blur the meaning, not make it clearer.

(4) emphasize. Emphasize all the important meanings when expressing. To this end, people can use various methods when speaking, such as raising their voices, slowing down their speech, using short sentences or adding gestures. When writing an article, you can also use inverted sentences, exclamatory sentences, repeated sentences, rhetorical questions and other methods to emphasize the words and sentences that should be emphasized.

(5) Diversity. The variety of sentence patterns is essential for a good article. Short sentences and long sentences, simple sentences, complex sentences and complex sentences, ring sentences and scattered sentences should be mixed. You can also use questions, imperative sentences or exclamations. But don't change sentence patterns frequently just for the sake of change.

Third, the group segments the market.

Paragraph is not only an integral part of the article, but also a self-contained and relatively independent whole. It usually consists of a main sentence, an extended sentence and an ending sentence.

1. main statement. The topic sentence reveals the center of the paragraph and is placed at the beginning of the paragraph. Rhetorically, the main sentence should be concise, so that readers can easily understand the main idea of the paragraph.

2. Extended sentences. The content of the extended sentence must surround and support the main sentence. Extended sentences that deviate from the main sentence are redundant and should be deleted. Rhetorically, if simple sentences, complex sentences and complex sentences can be used in several extended sentences respectively, the whole paragraph will be more vivid and less monotonous.

3. concluding remarks. The ending sentence is the echo of the main sentence, which usually leads to the results stated in the extended sentence.

A paragraph is like a mini-article. Its content should be complete, coherent and perfect. Content integrity requires that all sentences in a paragraph closely revolve around the same center or theme. If it is necessary to open a new topic, you must start a new paragraph. Coherent content requires clear words, clear hierarchical structure and internal logical relationship between sentences. In addition, a well-developed paragraph should use one or more appropriate expansion methods. There are many ways to expand a paragraph, such as time expansion, process expansion, space expansion, example expansion, analogy comparison expansion, causal analysis expansion, classification expansion or a combination of several methods.

Fourth, ask for articles

An article should have relatively complete content and structure. It usually includes introduction, extension and conclusion. The opening paragraph should be fascinating, arouse readers' interest and curiosity in the content of this article, and provide necessary background knowledge at the same time. This part puts forward the author's views and arguments, and the narrative should be clear and logical. The conclusion part expounds the essence and great significance of the argument, and often ends with powerful sentences to deepen the reader's impression. Common English compositions include narrative, descriptive, expository, argumentative and practical writing.

1. Narrative. Narrative is generally in the form of a set of pictures to describe the course of a thing.

2. description. It is generally required to describe a person, place or indicate the route.

3. Explanatory text. Used to illustrate a point, or to explain the purpose, usage, etc.

4. Argumentative essay. It is a requirement to put forward your own views and opinions on something to convince readers.

5. Practical writing. Generally, it is mostly letters, diaries, notices, notes, invitations, resumes, etc.

English writing ability is not achieved overnight. It must be from shallow to deep, from simple to complex, from easy to difficult, step by step, interlocking. Teachers should pay attention to basic skills training, strictly require students to write letters, words and sentences correctly and skillfully, and pay attention to case and punctuation. According to the formula of "word-sentence-paragraph-article", encourage and guide students to read more and practice more, persevere, practice makes perfect, and even reach the realm of "writing like a god"
