如何使用高级词汇及如何使句式多样化
高考英语写作部分在语言方面的要求中有:能尽量使用较高级词汇。英文写作中若有高级词汇,是获取高分的重要条件之一,但如何使用高级词汇?
1.注意使用词组、习语来代替一些单词以增加文采。如:用catch sight of代替see,用care nothing for代替dislike等。
2.使用一些很有“洋味”的单词。
Thank you for sharing the time with us. (用share而不用spend)
The noise nearly drove me mad. (用drive而不用 make)
Tom had his leg broken last week. (用have his leg broken而不用break his leg)
3.避免重复使用同一单词或短语。如:用We have built a new classroom building besides the old one and we have also set up a library where the old one used to be. 比用We have built a new classroom building besides the old one and we have also built a library where the old one used to be. 好。
英文写作中,不同的思想内容要用不同的句式来表达;而同一思想内容也可以用不同的句式来表达。句式不同,表达效果也就不同。只有句式多样化,文章才会生动有趣,充满活力。
可是,在实际写作中,初学写作的学生往往一 篇文章都是千篇一律的简单句,文章单调乏味,毫无生气。笔者认为,恰当地使用某些方法或手段有助于实际表达形式的多样化,增强表达效果。下面将常用方法简单介绍如下:
1.改变句子的开头方式。不要一味地都是主语开头, 可以把状语置于句首等。如:
(原) He was still absorbed in his work deep into the night.
(改) Deep into the night, he was absorbed in his work.
2.学会运用特殊句式。
省略句: If necessary, we shall send a telegram home.
倒装句: Not only did he refuse the gift, he also severely criticized the sender.
强调句: It was at that moment that he changed his mind.
