书面表达在中考、高考中都占有相当大的比重,而许多学生在此方面丢分甚多,以致影响最后总分,因此提高学生写作能力势在必行。在考试中最常见的形式是要求学生根据所给信息(information)和思想(idea)来作文,亦称为"情景作文"或"提示作文",而学生对于语言要素综合应用的能力较弱,写出的东西往往是不符合英语表达习惯的"中文式英语"。作为一名英语教师,就必须经常提醒学生注意这一问题,有意识地让学生逐步接受英语表达的思维方式,久而久之学生才能写出比较地道的英语,少犯甚至不犯Chinese English 的错误。故书面表达训练从初二下学期就应开始,并逐步强化提高,最终达到应考要求。在此就自己日常教学中的经验浅谈如何提高中学生英语写作能力,最终达到"All roads lead to Rome "的目的。
首先,根据题目信息,可列出下列短语: December 21st, on my way to the cinema, at 9:00, meet a foreign visitor, go over, get to the post office, look worried, thank you, be late for the film, be glad, talk with, in English
有了这些短语,再配上正确的时态与文章格式,此篇书面表达就一蹴而就。 e.g. December 21st , Sunday Fine When I was on my way to the cinema at 9:00. I met a foreign visitor. He didn't know how to get to the post office. He looked worried. So I went over and told him the way. He said "Thank you" to me. I was late for the film, but I didn't mind. I'm glad that I can talk with a foreigner in English.
