写活英语句子有哪些方法

本文已影响 2.71W人 

学生写作时,如果仅局限在把内容交代清楚的水准上,只选用一些普通的、直截了当的词,或一律使用简单句平铺直叙,那么,这样写出来的.文章就会像一碗白开水,呆板、单调,没有可读性。要使文章耐人寻味,有深度,同学们就应尝试使用一些高级词汇或句型,以凸显文章的亮点,使文章增添文采,给读者(尤其是阅卷老师留下深刻印象)。具体说来,同学们可尝试以下方法:

写活英语句子有哪些方法

1. 灵活改变句子开头

在通常情况下,英语句子的排列方式为“主语 谓语 宾语”,即主语位于句子开头。但若根据情况适当改变句子的开头方式,比如使用倒状语或以状语开头等,会使文章增强表现力。如:

(1) There stands an old temple at the top of the hill.

At the top of the hill there stands an old temple.

在小山顶上有一座古庙。

(2) You can do it well> Only in this way can you do it well.

只有这样你才能把它做好。

(3) A young woman sat by the window.

By the window sat a young woman.

窗户边坐着一个年轻妇女。

2. 避免重复使用同一词语

为了使表达更生动,更富表现力,同学们在写作时应尽量避免重复使用同一词语来表示同一意思,尤其是一些老生常谈的词语。如有的同学一看到“喜欢”二字,就会立刻想起like,事实上,英语中表示类似意思的词和短语很多,如love, enjoy, prefer, appreciate, be fond of, care for等。如:

I like reading while my brother likes watching television.

I like reading while my brother enjoys watching television.

我喜欢看书,而我的兄弟却喜欢看电视。

3. 合理使用省略句

合理恰当地使用省略句,不仅可以使文章精练、简洁,而且会使文章更具文采和可读性。如:

(1) He may be busy. If he’s busy, I’ll call later. If he is notbusy, can I see him now?

He may be busy. If so, I’ll call later. If not, can I see himnow?

他可能很忙,要是这样,我以后再来拜访。要是不忙,我现在可以见他吗?

(2) If the weather is fine, we’ll go. If it is not fine, we’llnot go.

If the weather is fine, we’ll go. If not, not.

如果天气好,我们就去;如果天气不好,我们就不去了。

(3) She could have applied for that job, but she didn’t doso.

She could have applied for that job, but she didn’t.

她本可申请这份工作的,但她没有。

4. 适当运用非谓语结构

非谓语结构通常被认为是一种高级结构,适当运用非谓语结构,会给人一种熟练驾驭语言的印象。如:

(1) When he heard the news, they all jumped for joy.

Hearing the news, they all jumped for joy.

听了这消息他们都高兴得跳了起来。

(2) As I didn’t know her address, I wasn’t able to get in touchwith her.

Not knowing her address, I wasn’t able to get in touch withher.

由于不知道她的地址,我没法和她联系。

(3) As he was born into a peasant family, he had> Born into a peasant family, he had> 他出生农民家庭,只上过两年学。

5. 结合使用长句与短句
