第一節(jié) 主題句作文
主題句作文是四級寫作中常見的一種作文形式。這是一種控制性作文,旨在控制考生的寫作范圍,要求考生根據(jù)試題中所給的主題句續(xù)寫一篇完整的短文。
在具體寫作時(shí)要以主題句為線索,因?yàn)樗侨蔚闹行,所以具有很?qiáng)的概括性。要合理安排有關(guān)材料或細(xì)節(jié),將段落充分展開,并保證各段落在意義上連成一體,形式上互為統(tǒng)一,語氣上一氣呵成,否則就會(huì)偏離主題。
如:
Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition about TV and Education in three paragraphs. You are given the topic sentence of each paragraph and are required to develop its ideas by completing the paragraph. You should write at least 120 words and remember to write clearly on the Answer Sheet.
TV and Education
1. TV is playing a more and more important part in education today.
2. But the problems with TV today are also growing more and more serious.
3. Some suggestions have been put forward in attempt to solve this problem.
我們在寫主題句作文時(shí)應(yīng)按下列步驟進(jìn)行寫作:
1. 仔細(xì)閱讀指令,明確寫作題目及其它要求。
2. 仔細(xì)推敲主題句。
主題句是段落的主導(dǎo)思想,是作者要加以說明,論證或描寫的中心。因此在做主題句作文時(shí),一定要仔細(xì)推敲找出所要闡述、說明或論證的重點(diǎn),然后圍繞主題句展開想象,進(jìn)行論證、說明或描述。有些考生見到文章的主題句后,不善于分析,而是馬上動(dòng)筆寫,結(jié)果寫出的文章語無倫次,不深不透。還有的考生則是看過第一段的主題句后便順勢寫下去,結(jié)果把三段的內(nèi)容寫在一段里,這都是不可取的。
3. 找出支配全段的主導(dǎo)思想。
分析主題句要找出支配全段的主導(dǎo)思想。支配思想對全段起統(tǒng)帥作用,并決定全段的發(fā)展方向。如以上三段各主題句中的支配思想分別為“more and more important part”,“more and more serious”,和“solve this problem”。
4. 選材和擬定提綱。
準(zhǔn)確、全面地理解了文章的主題后就可以根據(jù)主題句確定要寫的基本內(nèi)容以及表現(xiàn)這一內(nèi)容的材料,并擬定寫作提綱。選材時(shí),要準(zhǔn)備分別用二、三個(gè)事實(shí)對主題加以論述,說明或描述。
5. 段落寫作。
主題句只是提出了一段的寫作中心,要進(jìn)一步表達(dá)思想,就要展開段落?忌谶M(jìn)行段落寫作時(shí)應(yīng)注意段落的統(tǒng)一性和連貫性。段落的統(tǒng)一性(也說單一性)是指每段應(yīng)只有一個(gè)中心思想,段落中所有的句子都圍繞中心思想進(jìn)行發(fā)揮。段落的連貫性是指段落的每一個(gè)句子都應(yīng)按一定的邏輯順序排列,句與句之間的過渡必須自然,轉(zhuǎn)換必須順勢,銜接必須緊湊。
參考范文:
TV and Education
TV is playing a more and more important part in education today. Millions of people in China are learning foreign languages through TV. Adults watch TV every day for a great variety of courses. Special English-learning programs are available on TV for preschool children. TV is now quite indispensable in education today.
But the problems with TV today are also growing more and more serious. For example, school children keep watching TV until late at night, leaving little time for school assignment. Watching TV for so many hours a day certainly spoils their eyesight, and makes them less enthusiastic in school studies. What is even worse, so many telefilms and teleplays are about love affairs that a great number of students begin to make friends of the opposite sex or fall in love at a much earlier age than before.
Some suggestions have been put forward in attempt to solve this problem. Parents ought to help children select appropriate TV programs and set up some time limitations. School teachers ought to tell students how to make correct use of TV programs. TV stations should be careful in the selection of movies and plays. Newspapers and
