2、 海陆空交通便利,又有一条与北京相连的高速公路(freeway)正式启用。
3、 自然资源(resources)丰富,电力能源充足。
4、 社会次序良好,政府多方面支持外国投资者。
一拿到题,大部分学生一定会愣住,怎么办?别急,列出信息中的信息,问题可迎刃而解。
词组有:ladies and gentleman, a new modern city, set up,
the early 1980''s, by air, by sea, by land, another freeway, be used,
connect with, be rich in, natural resources, energy resources,
support foreign visitors.
词组列出后,判断体裁是发言稿,可用一般现在时来书写,把句子组合一番后,文章即可大体成型。
e.g.
Ladies and Gentleman,
Welcome to our city. Now let me introduce our city to you. Our city is a new modern city. It was set up in the early 1980''s, but it has been developing rapidly. From here you can travel to anywhere by sea, by air or by land. Recently another freeway connected with Beijing has started being used. The places around our city are rich in natural resources . And we have enough supply of electricity and energy resources. The public is very nice. Besides the government of our country and our city support foreign investors in many ways. We except more and more foreign friends to invest in our city.
请你仔细看看,考试得分要素就是那些关键词组、句型。因此书面表达要从词组、句型训练入手,强化基础知识。
二、 多读、多背好文章、范文。
熟读唐诗三百首,不会写诗也会吟,英语文章也是如此。平时多读多杯背好文章、好句子、谚语、俗语,写书面表达十会起到画龙点睛的作用,而这些句子、文章往往就在我们身边。
e.g.

East or west, home is best.
Rome was not built in a day.
Home is where the heart is.

熟能生巧这是古训,同样适用于英语写作。在平时学习中多留意,多收集素材,写作时就不会手忙脚乱,无从下手。只要你能坚持多读、多背好句子,好文章,便可轻松写出满意的文章。
三、 亲自实践,动手写作。
临渊羡鱼,不如归而结网。如果仅仅掌握了写作技巧,熟背了大量文章,不亲自动手实践还是不行,没有一成不变的文章让你照搬。
动手写作,好处有二。第一练字,可写出一手干净,整洁漂亮的handwriting; 第二可查错补缺,只有通过练习才能知道自己的不足与缺陷,便于老师、同学帮你修改、订正。毕竟,说和写是两码事。
