寫作策略:
     本課的寫作題目是提綱作文。在pets4的作文類型中,甚至是四六級和研究生英語入學考試的作文中,提綱式的作文也是很常見的。相對而言,這類作文比較容易應對。因為題目中雖然提供了粗略的而且通常是中文表達的提綱,但是畢竟可以從中得到一些寫作內(nèi)容上的知道,這樣才不會感覺無從寫起,不會無話可說,因為題目所給的提綱已經(jīng)指明了寫作的大致方向。有了提綱,只要對其進行適當?shù)臄U充就可以了。提綱對于審清題意組織段落很有幫助。
     眾所周知,無論是平時練習短文寫作還是在應試時寫作,仔細審題都是寫作的第一步。審題時,如果在只有題目的情況下,一切就只能靠仔細揣摩題目的意思了。而提綱式作文除題目外,還給出了文章各段落應該覆蓋的主要內(nèi)容,從而更利于我們了解和把握短文寫作的主旨大意,以及圍繞著什么樣的中心來寫。這樣,也就可以保證寫作不偏題,不跑題,并能較快入題。
     寫作提綱
     首段:起初,我對大學生的英語教學方法有點不適應。這表現(xiàn)在老師每堂課的內(nèi)容太多,沒有辦法記下來;課本生詞太多。一篇文章中有很多詞都不認識。
    主題段落:現(xiàn)在我發(fā)現(xiàn)了 學習英語的好方法。比如:課前積極預習,課后認真復習。不要指望老師像中學時那樣領著大家復習。擴大自己的閱讀范圍,不把英語學習僅僅局限于課本。聽,說,讀,寫綜合同步提高,通過練習聽說,增強了自己的語感。
     結(jié)尾段:我知道,要學好英語,還有很長一段路要走。英語學習沒有捷徑,我必須堅持不懈。
     參考范文:
     Learning English at College
     When I was in the high school, I was very good at English. But when I entered the college, I realized that it was not as easy as I thought. In the first several weeks, I found that I couldn’t fully understand what my English teacher taught in the class. There were a lot of new words in the text which had affected my understanding of the whole article. The teacher always threw many questions every class. I knew that I had big troubles adjusting to the way English was taught at college.
     In the following weeks, I tried to find effective ways to improve my English. First, I analyzed the reason why I can’t keep up with the lessons. In the past, when I was in the high school, we had English courses almost everyday, including the morning reading. The teacher gave review lessons regularly. So it was easier for us to grasp the knowledge. Furthermore, compared with college English, high school English was relatively easy to learn, with few new words and short sentences.
     We were provided by the teacher with lots of exercises to practice what we have learned. But now in the college, the situation was completely different. Having found the reason, I began to make the plan. I decided I would put it into action. I got up very early every morning, reading English aloud and memorizing the new words. Every noon and evening, I listened to the English broadcast China Radio International, which brought me much fun. I also borrowed many English reference books as well as reading materials and read them carefully. Writing an English essay was also a good way to practice English. In order to better understand the class, I persisted in preparing lessons before class. By doing for the whole term, I was so excited that I got the highest score in the final English exam. I think I have found the proper way to learn English.
     However, this is only a good beginning. There is a long way to go to learn English well. For instance, even though I can get high score in the written exam, I still can’t use it to communicate with foreigners. In addition, I have difficulty in understanding English broadcast. English is practice, practice and practice. If you don’t use it, you’ll lose it.
