例:Buying or Borrowing Books?(1)有些人认为书应该借来看(2)有些人认为书应该买来看(3)你的选择?

Buying or Borrowing Books?

Books can arm us with knowledge and information we need to make success of life.There are generally two ways in which we can have access to books: borrowing or buying.While millions are borrowing books, I still think buying them best suits me and gives me the greatest pleasure.Many people choose to borrow books.For one thing, borrowing books can save us huge amounts of money.For another, if we borrow books from the library or friends, we normally have deadline to finish them.And consequently we can read more books in a limited time, just as a famous Chinese saying goes, “books can not be read unless borrowed.”

I believe that advantages for buying books are more obvious and compelling.Firstly, we can keep the books as long as we wish.Secondly, we can take whatever notes on the margin of the pages of the books.Finally, the process of selecting and keeping books can be a great fun.4.口语作文 例:工作总结演讲

1.简述上周五系学生会搞的一次以环保为主题的到某一湖区拾trash的活动。2.上述活动的效果及存在的问题。3.你的建议。My fellow students, Last Friday, the Students‟ Union of our Department organized a clean-up project to Zhongshan Lake.The purpose of this project is to enhance(加强)the environment awareness of general public.Late in the afternoon around 4, a group of 35 volunteers went to the park where we pick up the trash(垃圾)left by some tourists.As head of the group, I would like to report to you on the event.Actually, we did a wonderful job.When we were collecting the trash near the lake, many people paused to watch and then came to our help, showing considerable appreciation and support.But our work still left some to be desired.For one thing, since our project started late in the afternoon, hours were not long enough to attract enough people as we had predicted.For the other, lots of people passed by apparently not knowing what we were doing.But for these two drawbacks, our project could have been much better and more effective.So, following are two of my suggestions: next time we have similar activities, try to start earlier, say in the morning.In this case we can put in more hours.And also, as we are getting along, we can put up some posters to tell people what we are doing and call their attention to environment protection.Thank you.5.图表作文

A: staying at home B: traveling C: doing social investigation D: other ways

From the two charts, we can see that in the past ten years the students who go traveling and do social investigations during vacations have increased greatly while those who stay at home have decreased a lot.There are several reasons for the changes.Firstly, with the development of economy, many people have become better off.Students can get financial support from their parents for traveling.Secondly, tourism has greatly developed over the past ten years.Many new scenic spots have been built and exploited.In addition, the students today are expected and encouraged to participate in facing the real world.In this way they can obtain the necessary experiences required when they go job-hunting upon graduation.From the changes in the charts, we can predict that more and more college students will make their vacations interesting and worthwhile by going to the outside world instead of staying at home.Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay on the topic of Studying Abroad.You should write at least

words following the outline given bellow:

1.近几年来越来越多的学生选择留学

2.出现这种现象的原因

3.这种现象可能带来的影响

四级模考参考范文:

Recent years have witnessed a phenomenon that more and more students swarm into foreign countries to finish their education.They have not considered our homeland as the unique place to enrich their knowledge any more.Instead, some excellent boys and girls whose financial condition is fine simultaneously began to pay their attention on some oversea prestigious colleges and institutions and dream to get degrees there.There are several reasons to cause this change.First of all, with the globalization and much more frequent communications with developed countries, most of the people in China get to realize the wide gaps in many fields, especially in science and technology,between China and western countries.They thirst for studying aboard to get ready better for the fierce competition in the job-hunting market.Moreover, the life in foreign countries is usually attractive to young people and studying aboard may satisfy their curiosity.Besides, the rapid development of our mother country and the remarkable growth in our income make going abroad to study available, which is almost impossible to average Chinese students in the past.The move-out of our students changes our society a lot.On one hand, being students in foreign universities will widen their view and offer them more possibility to get favorite jobs.And consequently their success will draw more latecomers to do the same thing.On the other hand, if the majority of them will not go back to China to work in the future, our fatherland will probably suffer a significant loss which may be difficult to be estimated by money.毕业的问题

1、Studying Abroad or Home

(1)现在有越来越多的人想出国留学。

(2)出国留学与在国内学习的对比。

(3)你的观点。

Nowadays, with the development of science and technology, more?and?more?people want to study abroad.There are students from colleges and universities, from the middle schools, from the primary schools, and people from all walks of life.What difference does it make?between studying abroad and studying home ?

Though many students are crazy about going abroad to pursue their higher education, I think studying home is preferable.For one thing, you don‟t have to take foreign language tests such as TOEFL and GRE.This can save you a tremendous amount of time, money and effort, allowing much of your energy to be devoted to your academic foals.In addition, if you study home ,you can stay with your family and old friends.Meanwhile , while studying home ,you can enjoy the kind of intimate friendship and comfortable family atmosphere which you can only dream of in a foreign university , where you will be accompanied by your own shadow most of the time.For these reasons, pursuing one‟s higher education at home is a more realistic and sensible choice.In a word, I prefer to study home.The Intensified Postgraduate Entrance Examination

It can be seen from the graph that there are more and more students attending the postgraduate entrance examination year by year.Compared with before, the rate of the student taking part in the postgraduate entrance examination becomes higher and higher.In the meanwhile, the admittance rate is also rising.What are the reasons for this and the possible consequences? On the one hand, there are three reasons for this.First, the job market becomes more and more competitive.As a result, most people want to find or exchange for a better job by obtaining a high degree.Second, most college students want to pursue their study after their graduation from the undergraduate.Third, with the development the science and technology, what has been learned at college is not enough to meet the need of the society.On the other hand, there are some possible consequences of this.For one thing, most people will be force to pay more attention to the examination than to the improvement of their true ability.For another, it will have a negative effect not only on the individual but also on the society in the long run.Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a Letter of Apology.You should write at least 120 words following the outline given below in Chinese:

1.表达自己对晚交论文一事的歉意。

2.说明未能按时交论文的原因。

3.表示自己将尽快把论文补交上并表示以后将按时交作业。

这是一封道歉信,写的时候要遵循道歉信的一般模式:开篇直奔主题,然后说明原因,最后提出可能的补救措施。第一段,对晚交论文及对此造成的后果表示歉意;第二段,说明理由(可信的理由,而不是随便应付老师的借口);第三段,表示尽快完成论文。

【范文】A Letter of Apology

Dear Mr.Wang,①I am writing to apologize for my late homework.The paper which you have ②assigned to us last Monday was ③due this Friday, but to my regret, I haven‟t even started it yet.I feel really sorry for not handing in the paper on time and ④for the inconvenience it would bring to you.I have caught a serious cold last week and the doctor asked me to stay in bed for a week since I was very weak and the weather was very cold these days.Therefore, I couldn‟t go to the library to get the necessary ①referential information which was needed for my paper.As a result of this, I have not started writing the paper yet and could not hand it in on time.Fortunately I have finally fully recovered.I will finish the paper as soon as I can and ①try my best to hand in homework on time in the future.Sincerely yours,Li Ming

大学英语四级考试作文 篇2

1) 开门见山法。文章一开头就点明主题, 把中心思想一目了然地呈现给读者。如:

Communication with other people by telephone is very convenient, especially when you have something urgent to say.

It’s high time that college students got to know the world outside the campus.

A dictionary is a living teacher.Whenever you come across a new word, just consult it and you will get a clear definition.

2) 交代背景法。开篇就把事情的时间、地点、人物及情景等交代清楚。这种方法多用于叙述文和描写文。

It was cold and bleak in the late winter.The night was dark;nor star could be seen in the gloomy and dismal sky.The north wind was howling dreadfully outside the house, like the screams of some wounded wild beasts.

Today is my birthday.It is the first time that I spend my birthday in the United States.Being alone and far away from home, I intended to spend the day quietly all by myself.

Not very far from my house lies the seashore in the south.We can go there on foot in about ten minutes.In summer evening when the sun is setting, ...

3) 提出问题法。用问题引出文章的主题, 以激起读者的阅读兴趣。其后可以针对这个问题进行解答, 这样也就展开了段落。适用于各种文体。如:

What is success?Different people may give different answers to this question.Some people think that...

What makes life worth living?There are many possible answers to this question, such as...

Have you ever said“No”to anyone who asks you for help?Once a close friend of mine aksed me to take an English exam for him...

Wealth or health, which is more important?Some young people think that they are young and in good health, and that the most important thing for them is to make more money.

4) 名言警句法。用人们耳熟能详的谚语、习语、警句、名人名言来开篇可以增强文章的说服力。但要注意所引述的名言警句最好要有“名”, 家喻户晓的。另外, 如果是用直接引语, 应该准确。如:

A proverb says, “Time is money.”But in my opinion, time is even more precious than money.Because...

As an old saying goes, “Art is long, but life is short.”We have only limited time to obtain unlimited knowledge.

“Knowledge is a power”.Such is the remark made by Francis Bacon.This remark has been shared by more and more people.

“Practice makes perfect.”This self-evident proverb means doing something repeatedly is the way to become very good at it.

5) 数据统计法。引用一些具体、翔实的统计数据引出文章的主题, 然后论述、解释、说明你要表达的思想。这样的开头可信度高, 说服力强, 要注意引用数据或数字一定要准确。此法多用于说明文和议论文, 图表作文时用得最多。如:

Unemployment rose from 7.5%to 7.8%in July 2002, the highest rate since January of that year, the Labour Department reported.

According to a recent poll.61 percent of American high school students have admitted to cheating on an exam at least once.

6) 比较对比法。在作文的开头把人们熟悉的人或物放在一起, 分析它们相似之处或不同之处。通过比较、对比, 使读者有深刻的认识和理解。如:

All people will agree that without water no living things can survive.But not all people have realized that fresh water can be used up.Some say:“There is inexhaustible fresh water in rivers, wells, lakes and so on.”

The relationship between a teacher and a student can be good or bad, helpful or harmful.Either way, the relationship can affect the student for the rest of his life.A good teacher-student relationship will make learning enjoyable and interesting, whereas a bad teacher-student relationship can discourage the student from learning and make teaching an unpleasant task.

7) 定义法。就是对文章要阐述的主题或对文章题目中的词汇、所持观点或所提事物首先进行定义, 然后通过举例、逻辑推理等方法加以详细说明或论述。常用于说明文或议论文。如:

Self-confidence means trusting in one’s own ability.As a very important psychological quality, it brings you creative power, arouses your enthusiasm and helps you overcome difficulties.

Democracy is a form of government in which the ultimate authority is vested in and exercised by the people.

3 大学英语四级考试作文结尾的写法

1) 重述主题法。在文章的结尾时, 从不同角度再次强调开头的主题, 做到前后呼应, 加深读者的印象。重述主题不是简单的重复, 要尽量巧妙地用不同的句式或手法重申主题。如:

(1) The relationship between a teacher and a student can be either good or bad, helpful or harmful. (opening) ...

In conclusion, a good teacher-student relationship can be mutually beneficial.It enables the students to gain knowledge eagerly and enjoyably, and the teacher can get a sense of satisfaction from his job. (ending)

(2) In a word, we should realize the harm of fake commodities, and object to their selling in the market.Only in this way can we eliminate them completely from the market.

2) 概括归纳法。用几个句子概括全文内容来结束文章, 会起到突出文章主题的作用。这样可以给读者留下深刻的印象。如:

Above are three main reasons why the people living in mountainous areas live a long life.

From what has been discussed above, we may safely draw the conclusion that...

Much has been said about....The rights and wrongs of the problem have so far become quite clear.There may be a lot of other similar phenomena in our society today.As long as we keep sharpsighted, we will always be with the truth.

3) 反问设问法。结尾可以通过反问或设问来深化主题。这样使文章更具说服力, 发人深省。如:

In conclusion, English is really a very useful instrument to us.Why don’t we double our efforts to learn it?

Therefore, listening skills must be consciously improved.Since it is such an important means of learning and communication, Why should we not develop this ability as far as possible?

So, can we benefit from wealth if we do not have health?

4) 希望号召法。在文章结尾, 作者可以根据阐述的主题, 提出解决问题的办法, 或向人们提出希望, 或发出号召、呼吁。如:

It is time that we urged an immediate end to the undesirable tendency of...

It is essential that effective measures should be taken to correct the tendency...

To understand the problem, it is important for us to take actions.At present, most important of all, we should take measures to keep our water resources under good care.All the resources we have discovered must be protected from pollution.Wasting water should be regarded as a sort of crime.

5) 解答问题法。作者可以在文章的开头提出问题, 在结尾给予解答, 前后照应, 使文章完整, 又突出主题。如:

...

Is there anything to be done?

...

Certainly, wherever possible we should separate non-smokers and smokers and provide ventilation.We do so now on big airplanes.But in most other places, in offices and restaurants, for instance, smokers and non-smokers stay together.There is still a long way to go to protect the non-smokers.

6) 展望未来法。在文章的结尾提出对将来的一种愿望, 这种愿望应该是文章主题的延伸, 而不是全新的观点。如:

Besides these, there is another rule to help one’s accomplishments, that is, punctuality.The habit of keeping a regular time is of extreme importance to successful learning.Work when working;play when playing.Every person will certainly succeed if she/he does these.

From all the reasons above, we know that great changes have taken place in developing countries.And I believe that in the near future, people in these countries would enjoy the most comfortable life that they have ever imagined.

7) 谚语格言法。谚语、格言可以用于文章的开头, 也可以用语文章的结尾。结尾的格言能够强调文章的主题, 圆满归纳全文, 这样既言简意赅又有很强的说服力。如:

This lesson tells us that Rome was not built in one day, so we should advance in order and remain patient if we want to achieve our goals in time.

浅析大学英语四级考试翻译 篇3

从2013年12月开始,大学英语四级考试的翻译题目进行了改革,由原单句汉译英调整为段落汉译英。比较全面的考查学生对于中国历史,文化,经济,社会等知识面的理解。这项改革说明考试已经由原来的知识型考核转变为能力型考核。这对于非英语专业的学生来说是一个重大的挑战。

二、翻译方法

1.中英差异。

(1)英语重形式结构,汉语重语义。

英文注重句子结构的完整性,逻辑性与严密性。汉语不注重时态与语法的变化,词性没有明显的分别。以大学英语四级翻译真题为例:

大熊猫是一种温顺的动物,长着独特的黑白皮毛,因其数量极少,大熊猫已被列为濒危物种。译文:The giant panda is a sort of peaceful animal with unique white and black fur,and it has been listed as an endangered species because of its rarity.

结合原文以及译文,汉语只是简单的叙述了大熊猫的外表,句子的关系完全通过句子的语义进行表现。而英文翻译的句子之间通过时态,逗号,连词来严谨的表现出来。

(2)汉语多短句,英语多长句。

英文只要句子结构没有错误,一个长句可以包含很多意思。汉语主张通过词语来表达含义,不同的含义需要不同的短句来表达。所以汉语翻译为英语的时候可以把几句话合并。以四级翻译真题来看:

大熊猫对于世界自然基金会(WWF)有着特殊的意义。自1961年该基金会成立以来,大熊猫就一直是它的徽标。译文:The giant panda has a special significance for WWF because it has been WWF’s logo since its founding in 1961.

汉语用了3个句子表达,而英语译文只用了一句话,其中用连词连接。

(3)汉语一般用主动语态,英语多用被动语态。

英语句子常见被动语态来表示其严谨。汉语并不常用被动语态。所以在翻译的时候有时候需要把汉语中的主动转变为被动。以翻译真题为例:

核能是可以安全开发和利用的。

译文:Nuclear energy can be developed and made use of in a safe way.

2.汉译英翻译步骤。

以大学英语四级考试2014年6月真题为例:

(1)通读全文,理解中文的语义与层次。

(2)分析句子结构,选词进行翻译。

1)中国教育工作…认识到…重要意义。“认识到”可以翻译为“recognize”; 重要意义翻译为 “significance”。Chinese educators have long recognized the significance of reading for the nation.

2)有些教育工作者…建议设立…日。“建议”可以翻译为 “suggest”,后接that宾语从句。“全民读书日”翻译为“national reading day”。“设立…日”应该用set…day来表达。Some educators proposed in 2003 that a national reading day should be set.

3)他们强调…经典著作。“强调”可以翻译为 “emphasize”后面接that宾语从句,“经典著作”可以翻译为 “classic ones”,在这里ones指代前面提到过的good books。They emphasized that people should read good books,especially classic ones.

4)通过阅读…学会…基本素质。“感恩,有责任心和与人合作”时可以根据英语的习惯将这三个动词变形为形容词“grateful,responsible,cooperative”.“培养”这个词我们经常遇到,也是学生的一个难点,可以翻译为“cultivate”.By reading,people can better learn to be grateful,responsible and cooperative,and the goal of education is precisely to cultivate such basic personalities.

5)“假如他们没有…以后…很难了”:该句译成英语可以用if来引导一个让步状语从句。“关键时期”可以翻译为 “crucial time/period”,“培养兴趣”可以翻译为“develop an interest”,“养成做…的习惯”可以翻译为“get into the habit of” Reading is especially important for primary and secondary school students and if they fail to develop their interest in reading during this critical period,it will be very difficult for them to get into the habit of reading later.

(3)检查单词,句意。

最后需要检查单词是否有拼写错误,句意是否与原文一致,然后誊写在答题纸上。

三、结语

翻译除了要具备基本的词汇知识以外,还需要具有一些翻译技巧。针对四级翻译考试,考生可在平时多积累一些关于中国历史,文化等知识,多读关于中国社会报道的英语报刊。这样肯定有利于考生提高成绩。

6月大学英语四级考试作文 篇4

Private Tutoring

Outline:

1. 为孩子聘请家教目前非常普遍

2.家教的利与弊

3.我的看法

参考范文:

Sample:

A recent investigation shows that about 80 percent of pupils have private tutors.Such a popular practice indicates that people are attaching greater importance to education. Many parents, for various reasons, missed the chance of obtaining a good education. When their children meet with difficulties in study, they are helpless. Private tutoring is the only solution. As private tutoring is usually one-to-one, the teacher knows the strong points as well as the weak points of the pupil clearly.

However, private tutoring has its own disadvantages. For one thing, it takes up so much of the pupils’ time that they can hardly find enough time for rest and entertainment, which are essential for their physical and mental health. For another, some teachers, busy “shuttling” from one family to another, tend to neglect their regular teaching duties. What’s more, some teachers are eager to help pupils do well in the test, offering the so-called tips for test-taking rather than help them acquire what is more meaningful.

Generally speaking, its disadvantages outweigh its advantages. Greater emphasis should be laid on classroom teaching and practice, on the improvement of teaching quality and on the tapping of pupils’ potentials. Only in this way can a new generation be healthily brought up.

6月大学英语四级作文范文二:参加选秀节目

题目要求:

1. 现在许多大学生放弃学业去参加“选秀”节目;

2. 有人认为“选秀”节目为这些大学生提供了展示自我的平台,他们应该抓住机会“秀出自己”;但也有人认为这种选秀节目会养成大学生 “急功近利”的心态;

3. 那么作为一个大学生,你是怎么看待这件事情的?

参考范文:

Sample:

Nowadays, TV PK Shows (or we can call it Talent Shows) are great hit in China and have attracted many young people. As for me, TV PK Shows, as all other things, have both positive and negative effects. Therefore, the most crucial thing is how we see them.

Some people think Talent Shows provide grass-root people with a stage to display their talents, so they should seize every opportunity to show off their talents. Some College students even give up their studies to attend these TV PK Shows in the hope of becoming famous overnight. They even regard TV PK shows as a shortcut to the success. While other people reckon that TV PK Shows will develop the undergraduates’ attitude of anxious of achieving quick success. And once they were failed in these shows, they would suffer a great psychological unbalance. This is really bad to their physical and psychological health.

To sum up, everything has its limit. As long as the right attitude is employed, then it is OK.

3. 你的看法

参考范文:

Sample:

My View on the “Campus Star” Contest

At an age of character and individuality being encouraged and demonstrated, we see various “stars” pop up―singing stars, dancing stars, movie stars and sport stars, etc. Many schools even hold contests to choose their “Campus Stars”. Although these activities make our cultural life in campus more colorful and varied, a lot of problems spring up at the same time.

First of all, these activities can result in the swelling of vanity in some students, making them become arrogant, or even feel superior to other students. Moreover, these activities can greatly distract the students from their study. In order to become a star, they will, without any doubt, spend a lot of time and energy on the preparation and competition. The focus of their academic life will be shifted, and even worse, they can become too enthusiastic about extracurricular activities and hate the academic knowledge and skills they need to grasp for their future development.

大学英语四级考试作文 篇5

预测作文

(一)Food Safety

1. 食品安全问题令人担忧。

2. 对此,你有什么看法(可从蔬菜、水果滥用农药、激素方面分析)?

【范文】

Currently, many problems concerning the safety of food have popped up.As for me, I believe at least three factors account for this issue.First, I observe that profits drive many food producers to commit illegal things.They aim to gain more money at the expense of consumers’ health.Second, the overuse of agricultural pesticide has resulted in the degradation of food quality.The excessive pesticide bears enormous health hazard for people.Furthermore, some food producers inject hormones into domestic animals so as to make them grow more quickly and thus they can turn in more profit.As a result, people’s health has been seriously disturbed.All in all, food safety is such a great concern, and we all should do establish laws and implement them effectively to avoid producing toxic foods.【点评】

首句直接点题,词组pop up指弹起,这里指食品安全突然间成了一大社会问题。文章第二部分从蔬菜生产商、水果滥用农药及激素方面阐释了食品安全问题的根源。

Observe除了有观察之意,还可以表示某人的观点;动词commit后面通常接违法或伤害性的事情,如commit a crime, commit illegal things, commit suicide等等。“以消费者的健康为代价”除了使用at the expense of 还可以使用at the cost of 或者ignoring。另外,在表达同一意思或相近意思时,此文避免了一词多用,而是采用不同的单词或词组,如劣质食品使用了problems concerning the safety of food, the degradation of food quality和toxic foods。

最后一段再次点题,并提出了万能解决方案之一,即政府和相关单位要制定法律法规。预测作文

(二)Should we help others in need?

1. 现在经常有这样的现象发生:路上有人摔倒,没人敢上前帮忙。

2. 这是人们的公德心缺失还是其他什么原因呢?

3. 你对此有何看法?

【范文】

Helping others has always been a virtue in traditional Chinese culture.But what’s strange nowadays is that people dare not show their helping hands to those in need.I would like to elaborate my views on this issue.Firstly, I think people’s moral sense has degraded.When egoism gains the upper hand, many people find it growingly hard to help others.Secondly, there is no denying that some tragic events turn out to be traps by people with evil intentions.So common people are becoming more risk-conscious and are more wary of traps and deceits.In general, I contend the idea that we should be warm-hearted and offer help as well as look out for potential hazards so as not to be deceived.【点评】

第一句话介绍背景,使用“美德”virtue一词。第二句话为转折句,除了使用but这个表示强烈转折意味的连接词,还采用了strange和首句形成鲜明对比。

文章第二部分开始阐释人们公德心(moral sense)缺乏的原因。指出原因之一为自私。此处采用了egoism, 也可使用selfishness, 但不可使用individualism,后者在英语语境中通常作褒义词讲,即崇尚自尊自立之意。原因之一是内因,原因之二是外因。Trap指陷阱,deceit指欺骗。第二段使用了内外因、主客观因素结合的方法,较全面地解释了公德心缺失的根源。

最后一段表明作者立场,提出既要坚持善良之心也要有防备之心。

预测作文

(三)College Students’Living Condition

1. 反应大学生生存状况的词语从“蜗居”、“蚁族”到“鼠族”,不断

涌现。

2. 对于这种现象,你有什么看法?

【范文】

Recently, the living condition of some college students is frequently referred to as “dwelling-narrowness”.In fact, this embarrassing situation is very serious that few of us can fail to meditate on the causes of it.In the first place, it’s difficult for graduates to bear the high cost of life in big cities.Poor payment thus gives rise to bad living conditions.Next, college students are more ambitious.Many of them are eager to compete in big cities like Shanghai and Beijing, where talents are abundant and positions are limited.Refusing to go back hometown let them suffer in big cities, which indirectly make their situation worse.Generally speaking, college students should be more qualified to better themselves and adjust their goals according to the reality.【点评】

首句交待背景,用无生命的名词词组(inanimate noun phrase)作主语并使用被动语态,文章更加客观中立。

第二句话使用单词embarrassing,深入地挖掘了当今大学生生存状况艰难与大学生十年寒窗之间令人无奈的矛盾。第三句话为承上启下句,fail to do sth.表示没能、不能做某事。文章第二部分阐释了作者的个人看法。认为此社会现象的一个原因是大城市的高消费与大学生刚刚毕业收入相对较低之间产生的矛盾。第二个原因来自大学生对自身期许过高与大城市人才济济之间的矛盾。使用单词ambitious,表示雄心勃勃。在形容人才济济时,使用abundant,表示充足的。此外,文章还指出第一个原因是直接原因,第二个原因是间接导致了大学生生存困境。

最后一段给出了解决方法,better oneself指使某人自身更加优秀,better此处作动词讲。预测作文

(四)The Popularity of Micro-blogging

1.近年来“微博”越来越流行,许多人利用“微博”来表达心声、交流想法。

2.微博流行的原因。

3.微博可能引起的弊端。

【范文】

Micro-blogging is no longer a strange word.More precisely, it has become part of our life.As for me, many factors contribute to the widespread of Micro-blogging.First, it is very convenient for people to express their instant feelings at any time.Second, it provides a chance for people to release their inner stress.By revealing their heartfelt emotions on the Micro-blogging, their friends may also know about their conditions and can offer in-time comfort.However, Micro-blogging can also be potentially dangerous as it

may give away people’s privacy and other significant information.All in all, Micro-blogging provides us comfort and also inevitably some concerns.We should be careful while using it.【点评】

第一段直接切入主题。首句在说明微博越来越流行时没有用肯定句micro-blogging is more and more popular, 而是用否定句的方式“负负得正”。

从第二段开始阐释流行的原因。Contribute to是固定词组,表示为„„作出贡献,其对应的名词是contribution。第一个原因是微博方便人们在任何时候表达他们当时的感觉。这里通过“at any time”和“instant feeling”突出了微博和传统博客的区别。第二个原因是微博可以减压。此处release表示释放,除了跟release pressure, release stress, 还可以跟release news。

第三段描述了微博的弊端,give away表示出卖,同义词有betray。最后一段是作者的对微博的态度,在充分肯定微博积极意义的同时提醒人们要谨慎使用微博。

(五)Reflection on Natural Disasters

1. 最近国内外灾害不断发生,这些灾害引起了我们对于自然所做的行为的再一次思考。

2. 你是如何看待自然灾害的?

3. 我们应该采取哪些措施来尽可能避免这些灾害和减少损失呢?

【范文】

Natural disasters happen almost every day,those devastating ones leave us to think about our behaviors towards nature again.First of all,we need to set a sound pre-warning mechanism, which enables us to detect potential risks at an early stages.Accordingly,emergency measures can be taken,and losses can be minimized.Second,governments have to equipped with an excellent Disaster Assistance Response Team to rescue those disaster-stricken areas.The primary goal is to provide emergency services, such as drinking water and medical treatment, until long-term aid arrives.Third, citizens need to realize that the main cause of those disasters is largely due to climate crisis;therefore, they should purchase energy efficient appliances, plant trees and economize our consumption on housing.From what has been discussed above, I maintain that minimizing the cost of disasters can be achieved by our persisting efforts.【点评】

第一段为总起段,提出问题并引起读者的注意。在形容自然灾害时,用disaster。Devastating表示极具破坏性的,同义词为destroying。Leave sb.to do sth.意味着使某人做某事。之后第二段中使用了连接词accordingly, 用以表示顺接或因果关系,连接词的使用能够使文章更具连贯性和逻辑性。而两个被动语态的使用则使文章更加客观公正。

第三段从政府的角度来进一步论述。Disaster-stricken为形容词,意思为饱受摧残的。在讲述政府提供的救援时,文中用了举例的方法使文章更加具体有说服力。

第四段中的be due to主要用来表示不好的原因。Purchase表示大宗购买,意为buy。这里用了三个并列的动宾词组,使文章更加有说服力。

最后一段maintain用来表示某人的观点,同义词还有observe, declare, insist。

第一,关于带的东西,首先是三证(身份证,学生证或图书证,准考证)缺一不可,丢失部分证件的学生及时去团总支开证明,其次是耳机(检查电池是否有电,耳机是否正常工作。)最后是2B铅笔、橡皮和黑色签字笔。

第二,关于考试流程,一般是8点半学生入场,入场后即可调试耳机(试音很早就开始),找着台后拿下耳机,以便听监考老师的各种有关考试的要求,9点开始播放考场指令,9点10开始考试,先做作文部分(提醒学生,不要在20分钟以内完成作文,因为这样不但无法保证作文质量,而且监考老师不允许提前开启试题册做快速阅读,9点45开始快速阅读,10点至10点5分收答题卡1(这上面包括了作文和快速阅读两部分的答题内容),10点5分开始听力部分考试,提醒学生老师收答题卡1的时候应立即带上耳机并快速浏览短对话部分,充分利用这5分钟的收卷时间。听力结束后是仔细阅读、完型填空和翻译三个答题,这四个答题都在答题卡2上作答,最后11点20考试结束后交答题卡2和试题册。第三,关于听力考试调台,我们学校的频点一定是FM校台11点左右的位置,如果旋钮正上方那个点看作12的话,它左侧那个点附近就是,而它右侧1点那个位置有个电台经常播放英语,四级考试时也播放,提醒学生千万别调错了。

英语四级考经 篇6

在进高中的第一天,我们的英语老师就对我们说,英语考试是有应试技巧的。虽然英语试题千变万化,我们或许猜不到,阅读理解中的主人公是Linda还是Sara,猜不到她是要接电话还是收信,可是万变不离其宗,情境再多变,考点却是固定的,我们要做的就是以不变应万变,掌握好一场考试的考点,则随考官怎样出题,我们都能轻松应对。也因此,一场考试的历届真题便显得至关重要,通过历届真题,我们便得以了解知识点哪些考过,哪些没考过,哪些考得多,哪些考得少。如果把像高考,四六级考试这类历史比较长,知识点有相对固定的考试的真题,从十年前的一直做到最近的一次,便几乎能覆盖所有的知识点了。

但是,做题不是走马观花般做一遍,对过答案便完事的。对于一套真题应该充分利用。首先,做选择题的时候答案不应该直接勾在几个选项上,许多老师都说过,做100套题还不如把一套题做100遍。做题的目的是把一套题中所考到的知识点全都记住掌握,要做到这一点,应把一套题不依靠提示的多做几遍,而如果把答案直接勾在选项上,第二遍做的时候忽略会受到前一次答案的干扰。因此,把答案写在另一张纸上或至少写在题号旁边是比较好的办法。同样的道理,对一道题所作的笔记一样也不应该写在题目的字里行间,而最好写在笔记本上,同时别忘了标好题号以便复习时对照着看。这样做虽然有些麻烦,但却保证了每套真题都发挥了它最大的效用。

用任何方法学习英语都不能跳过一个步骤,那便是记忆,厚厚的四级考试的词汇手册令人望而生畏,何况通背一遍之后,记住的却没有几个,而就算记住了,有些单词放到考题中又不会了,有些单词在考试中则完全没有考到。词汇手册里的词汇有重点和非重点之分,应该有针对性地背。四级词汇有很大一部分我们在高中里就背过,因此,在做四级题时,并不会遇到很多生词,比较好的办法是,在做真题时,碰到生词便用铅笔划出来,但不要立即去查,以免养成依赖性,如果生词是影响答题的,就先猜一下它的答案,而等到一套题全都做好后,或者对好答案后,再集中查这些生词,查生词最好不要用电子字典而应用词典。动词应查清及物不及物,名词应查清可数不可数,所有词都要记清用法和常用搭配。而这些,纸质字典比电子字典说得清楚明白。在真题里出现的,都是一些重点的,常考的生词,因此倘若把历届真题里出现的单词全部都掌握了,即使不把四级所有词汇都背出来也没有什么大碍。

另外,要学好英语,背英语课文是非常重要的。背课文的第一个好处是能记清一些词语的用法,和在词典里查生词的用法一样。四级考试中词语的语义辨析和用法还是考得比较多的,而背课文的第二个好处就是可以记住一些纯正英语的结构和好词好句,当然,这也便要求我们选背的英语课文优秀,而不是“中国英语”写出的英语课文。如新概念英语里的课文就非常值得背诵。背课文虽然辛苦,耗费脑力,可是收效却非常显著,英语各个方面的能力都会提高,自然也包括作文的能力。英语课文里的结构和好词好句可以借鉴到作文里,前提是要借鉴得准确和适当。

而新东方四级辅导班里对作文的辅导则是走了一条捷径。四级考试的作文有哪几种类型,每种类型作文的结构是怎样,应该写怎样的句子,开头或总结在这个课程里都有归纳。只要把几句作文的万能句背出来,再按部就班地组装,四级作文就再也不会难以入手了。

大学英语四级考试作文 篇7

一、四级作文考点透视

1.四级作文的写作要求。《课程要求》对四级考试的写作要求:“能用常见的应用文体完成一般的写作任务,能描述个人经历、事件、观感、情感等,能就一般性话题或提纲在半小时内写出120词的短文,内容基本完整,用词恰当,语篇连贯。能在一般或应用写作中使用恰当的写作技能。”

2.四级高分作文的特征。内容切题;表达清楚;文字连贯;句法多变;语言规范。

3.考生临场写作注意事项。审题无误;卷面整洁;字数达标;文体统一;主题突出;文字连贯;内容一致;词语多样;语言流畅;首尾呼应;检查到位(拼写,语法)。

4.四级作文历年试题分析。其一,题材分析。四级作文题材可分为两大类:贴近大学生的学习和课余生活的校园题材;有关社会变化、发展和进步的热点话题。其二,体裁分析。四级作文真题有四种题材:议论文、说明性议论文、叙事性议论文和应用文。2003年6月以来,应用文的比例越来越大。其三,命题形式。四级作文试题的常见命题形式有三种:提纲式命题作文、提纲式图表作文和情景+提纲式命题应用文。近年来的四级作文试题往往不是单一类型的,而是表现为结合两种或三种命题形式的综合型提纲式作文。

对四级作文的透视有助于我们改进对四级考试英语写作的教学。为提高教学质量与学生写作能力,以适应《课程要求》和CET-4的要求,在教学过程中,教师应结合教材特点,选择适当的写作教学模式,有意识地指导学生掌握写作技巧及采取合适的写作教学策略是解决问题的关键。

二、写作教学策略

1.写作教学模式。近年来,国内外许多学者和英语教育工作者通过研究发现,造成学生英语作文成绩不理想的原因很多,主要有如下几个方面:一是学生英语底子太薄;二是词汇量太小,且对已学词汇记忆不清;三是写作缺乏思想,深度不够;四是缺乏写作技巧。因此,在四级考试英语写作教学过程中,我们要根据历年四级作文的命题形式,可采用“句子仿写或套用 - 范文仿写 - 读说写结合”的作文教学模式。想让学生提高写作能力,首先要让其重视句子写作练习,然后过渡到段落和文章的写作。同时,通过读说写结合来激发学生参与写作讨论的积极性。这样学生的写作能力就可能得以提高。

2.CET-4写作教学策略。第一,重视句子写作练习。任何文章都是由一个个的句子组合而成,单句写作能力是文章写作的基本条件。学生弄清了句子结构,明白了语法,掌握了词汇、短语、句型,也就齐备了一篇文章所需的基本材料。所以,在对学生进行作文写作教学时,首先是做好句子写作方面的练习。

首先,仿写或套用。在进行语篇教学时,除了分析文章结构、写作技巧外,我们还挑选一些四级短文写作中使用率最高、覆盖面最广的基本句式要求学生仿写或套用,以便了解这些句型、惯用法的用法。例如:表示看法的基本句型:

1)People have(take,adopt,assume)different attitudes towards sth.

2)People have different opinions on this problem.

3)People take different views of(on)the question.

4)Some people believe that...Others argue that...

学生句型套用如下:

People have different attitudes towards failure. Some believe that failure leads to success.

Every failure they experience translates into a greater chance of success at their renewed endeavor. However, others are easily discouraged by failures and put themselves into the category of losers.

其次,句子重组或造句。让学生将某段次序打乱的句子重新排列好,这种重组练习可以训练学生的序列逻辑思维能力;或者给学生提供一些词语、句型等让学生进行造句练习。例如:表示举例的词汇for example, for instance, to illustrate, as an illustration;表示总结的词语in summary, in a word, in brief, in conclusion, to conclude, in short, in other words, that is, to summarize, as has been said。这样,学生可以把这些知识的用法重新掌握,并及时了解以前没有完全掌握的东西,就可能及时发现句子中的错误并改正,同时运用好各类词语、句型。

第二,框架写作。该策略在提供范文的基础上给出段落的结构,使学生在练习写作时能一开始就按一定的规范要求去写。操作时可按如下方式进行:提供范文,组织学生讨论段落的结构;出示结构框架;提供新的题目,让学生按同样的框架练习写作。框架写作属于段落写作, 段落是文章的必然组成部分,一个段落必须有一个中心即中心思想,该中心由主题句特别是其中的题旨来表达。整个段落必须紧扣这个主题,所有内容必须有机地组合、排列,过渡自然,使主题思想得到充分展开,保持段落的统一性、完整性和连贯性。文章中的各个部分相互关联、互为依托。因此,既要关注段落的扩展手法,也要重视文章的写作技巧。

3.读说写结合。(1)读写结合。第一,课文阅读。美国作家德尔文·G·舒伯特在Reading Is Writing一文中指出,教科书所编写的阅读文章是写作素材的集散地,是语言现象的展示厅,是语法规则的剖析室,是文章体裁的示范本。教师可以借助教科书中的阅读材料,教会学生主动进行写作积累,学会学习,把阅读技巧用到写作中。如:在学习《新视野大学英语读写教程》第一册Unit Eight Section ABirth of Bright Ideas一文时,利用文中三个事例的相互对比而突出主题、讲解其结构与写作特点,并逐步引导学生总结出表比较的常用词汇:in comparison, likewise, similarly,equally, however, likewise, in contrast, by contrast;紧跟着要求学生将练习中的范文进行讨论、分析,了解段落的写法。随后,再进行以下仿写练习。Based on the topic and outline given below, write a short paragraph of contrast.Main idea: Life at college is quite different from life at middle school. Outline: Extracurricular activities .Spare time. Ways to study. 这样学生在掌握教材原有知识、篇章结构的同时,也掌握了某些写作技能与技巧,提高书面表达能力。第二,课外阅读。教师在课后引导学生把阅读视线从课文引向更广阔的阅读空间和生活空间,要求同学们把感兴趣的信息以duty report的形式汇报给全班同学。通过课外阅读,学生锻炼了自己搜索信息、自主学习的能力,也拓展了阅读面,增加词汇量,积累更多的写作素材。阅读是写作的源泉,学生在英语学习过程中只要能大量阅读并把阅读中所吸收的语言知识内化,并通过说、写训练输出语言,就一定能够掌握和运用英语语言。第三,诵读。我国英语界老前辈葛传教授在其专著《英语写作》(The Writing of English)中谈到解决中国学生用英语写作的困难时说:“You ought to read very carefully. Not only very carefully,but also aloud,and read again and again till you know the passage by heart and write it as if it were your own.”这清楚地说明了熟读成诵对写作是多么重要。许多大学生朗读和阅读的时间太少,影响语感的形成,用英语写作时常出现中国式英语句子。在教学过程中教师要有目的引导学生在阅读过程中摘抄优美句子、短文进行诵读。诵读过程中,学习者理解字句,感悟内容,留心谋篇布局,熟读内容以至成诵,将阅读上的语言、材料内化为自己的语言,使语言的精髓融进自己的生命之中,并在需要进行写作之时绽出光彩。

(2)说写结合。斐斯泰洛奇说过“技巧和能力惟有通过实际应用才能发展”,表达的技巧和能力是通过读、说、写报告之类的活动得到发展的。在写作教学中,学生通过参与讨论,提高对词汇应用、文章结构和写作技巧的认识,可以在一定程度上缓解他们紧张感,减少对写作的恐惧,学到一些写作技巧和方法。正如前面提到的框架写作一样, 在正式开始某一种文体文章的写作前,给学生提供一篇学生的习文,让他们在小组范围内讨论其组织和结构,了解写作技巧和特点。在小组每个成员阅读该文之后,小组成员开始对该文的结构和组织情况进行讨论,指出文章的优点并提出对该文的修改意见。教师在评述他们的修改稿之后,再给学生提供一篇规范的范文,帮助学生掌握合格文章的结构、了解作者的写作目的和写作思路。对习作的讨论修改有助于学生身临其境地了解作者作文的写作思路,对句型、词语、关联词的选择和运用,仿效其长,而避免其短。在随后的写作练习中,同学们对作文题目先行讨论,然后再分头写作。完成作文初稿后,讨论并互相修改作文并指出该文的优缺点,着重讨论文章的篇章结构、遣词造句、语法结构、过渡词的使用等。最后由老师根据讨论意见对作文进行修改。

说写结合的方法给学生提供了两次学习、提高写作水平的机会,即修改他人作文和根据他人意见修改自己的作文,有助于提高学生的写作。

4.结语。写作是语言输出的重要途径之一,也是对语言综合能力的训练。而英语写作是大学英语四级考试中一个比较困难和薄弱的环节。因此,教师从一开始就要充分重视写作教学,使写作训练贯穿整个大学阶段英语教学的始终。要利用一切教学手段激发学生写作的兴趣,加大语言的输入量,把语言的输入变为学生对所学语言的输出,使学生对其学习和生活的大部分话题都有话可说,有话可写。平时多鼓励和指导学生多读多练,坚持不懈,熟能生巧,以至达到“下笔如有神”的境界。教者只有在平时教学中有意识地系统训练学生的英语写作能力,学生才能在英语四级考试中,信心十足,游刃有余。同时教师还要将形成性评价机制运用到写作教学中,注重学生的主体地位,重视学生的写作过程,培养学生的自我评价能力和自我教育能力,在互评中学会信任、诚实、公正地对己和对人,并在评价中获得成就感,增强自信心、合作精神和自主能力,提高英语写作水平。
