一些学生问:“我已认真审题,抓住要点行文,内容表达完整,字体工整,为何还得不到高分呢?”这正是问题所在,全国卷的书面表达是半开放性的写作,虽然对词数要求不高,但对文体语言规范、得体性以及内容构思能力的要求并不低。

认真解读高考评分标准,我们不难领悟到,要在高考英语写作中得到高分,就要使文章语句表达得体,内容丰富起来,多写一些让阅卷者感到出彩的亮点词和句。作为高三的考生,应该为高分写作找到突破口。要想让英语写作出彩,可以从以下几方面为文章润色。

“润”词

词汇是语言的建筑材料,文章的好坏,遣词很关键。一位语言学家说得好:“Using the right word at the right time is rather like wearing appropriate clothing for the occasion,it is a courtesy to others, and a favor to yourself -a matter of presenting yourself well in the eyes of the world.”

考生如果用心遣词,就会使文章增色不少。

试比较以下两句:

He isa good teacher.(普通)

He is a caring and insightful teacher.(具体)

通过比较可以看出,前一句不如后一句表达得具体、生动。一个词的内涵越具体,它表达的内容越丰富。考生写作时要多用具体、特定的词来描述一个具体的人或物,如a kind lady给人感觉很笼统、空泛,我们可以用很多更为个性、具体的词描绘一个人,如hospital, optimistic, spirited, cultivated, easy-going ,generous, humorous, thoughtful, gentle等。

考生还应多积累阅读的语篇材料中的好词美句,并应用到写作当中。有一名学生,原本写作语句表达贫乏,听从老师的建议用心积累做过的某些阅读篇章中的好词句,他现在的写作水平明显上了一个台阶。以下是他某次考试的写作修改稿,恰如其分地运用了最近阅读语篇中积累的亮点词汇。Dear Chris.

In your last letter,you asked if'I could recommend some suitable Chinese books for you to read. Therefore, I'm writing to recommend you a book named A Dream of Red Mansons.

As one of the Four Great Classical Novels.A Dream of Red Mansions is considered as an encyclopedia of Chinese traditional culture. As a novel based on 18th- century Chinese society,it will present you the society of Qing dynasty and a noble family's ups and downs as well as many people with distinctive characters,which makes this book really worth reading and studying.I am sure that you will he immersed in its appealing plots and have a better knowledge of Chinese profound traditional cul- ture.

I also sincerely welcome you to visit me and experi-ence the charm of Chinese culture during the summer va-cation. If you come,I'll show you around the cityI live in and share with more great Chinese novels.
