二、“分步写作”表达准一点
话题应用文分步写作
假定你是李华, 请根据下面表格中的内容提示,为校报的英语园地写一篇英语短文,介绍你最崇拜的一位中国科学家。
姓名
梁建英
出生年份
1972年
职务
中国高铁总设计师
主要经历
(1)1995年大学毕业后开始从事高铁研究工作
(2)研制出时速300~350千米高速动车组
(3)2015年获奖
注意:1.词数80左右;
2.可以适当增加细节,以使行文连贯。
参考词汇:高速动车组highspeed EMU
第一步:准确审题,理行文脉络,拟写作要点
本文属于应用文中的人物介绍,时态以一般过去时和一般现在时为主,人称为第三人称。文章可分两个层次:主体部分应依据题目所给的要点进行构思,介绍梁建英的职务、出生年份、主要经历(1995年大学毕业后开始从事高铁研究工作;研制出时速300~350千米高速动车组;2015年获奖),由于所给要点齐全,只要清清楚楚表达出来即可;最后表达自己的感想。
要点1-①:梁建英是中国高铁总设计师。她出生于1972年。
Liang_Jianying_is_general_designer_of_the_China_highspeed_EMU.She_was_born_in_1972.
要点1-②:梁建英1995年毕业。她一直致力于研究中国高速列车的发展。(devote ... to)
Liang_Jianying_graduated_in_1995._She_has_been_devoting_all_her_time_to_researching_into_the_development_of_the_China_highspeed_railway.
要点1-③:她研制出时速300~350千米高速动车组。
She_invented_the_300~350km/h_highspeed_EMU.
要点1-④:她在2015年获奖。(award)
She_was_awarded_in_2015.
要点2:梁建英给我们树立了好榜样。从她身上,我意识到我们应该不断努力直至实现我们的梦想。
Liang_Jianying_has_set_a_good_example_to_us.From_her,_I_realize_that_we_should_keep_on_trying_until_we_realize_our_dreams.
第二步:添加细节,文意更丰满,表达更亮眼
句式丰富多彩,表达高级是高分的基础,因此要对句式进行升级拓展,使表达更充实,内容更丰富。如要点1-①合并升级为名词短语作同位语;要点 1-②升级为since引导的时间状语从句;要点1-③增添她研制出时速300~350千米高速动车组的结果“使我们快速出行更加便利”,并使用v.ing 形式作结果状语。
升级要点1-①:梁建英是中国高铁总设计师,出生于1972年。(合并升级为名词短语作同位语)
Liang_Jianying,_general_designer_of_the_China_highspeed_EMU,_was_born_in_1972.
升级要点1-②:自从她1995年毕业,她一直致力于研究中国高速列车的发展。(合并升级为时间状语从句)
Since_she_graduated_in_1995,_she_has_been_devoting_all_her_time_to_researching_into_the_development_of_the_China_highspeed_railway.
拓展要点1-③:她研制出时速300~350千米高速动车组, 使我们快速出行更加便利。(v.ing形式作结果状语)
She_invented_the_300~350km/h_highspeed_EMU,_making_it_more_convenient_for_us_to_get_around_quickly.
第三步:连句成文,排语句顺序,重衔接过渡
本写作可采用“总—分”结构来行文,使文章显得紧凑。结合要点,根据上下文之间的逻辑关系,可添加过渡性词汇afterwards, as a consequence使文章衔接紧密,过渡自然。
Liang_Jianying,_general_designer_of_the_China_highspeed_EMU,_was_born_in_1972.Since_she_graduated_in_1995,_she_has_been_devoting_all_her_time_to_researching_into_the_development_of_the_China_highspeed_railway._Afterwards,_she_invented_the_300~350km/h_highspeed_EMU,_making_it_more_convenient_for_us_to_get_around_quickly._As_a_consequence,_she_was_awarded_in_2015.
Liang_Jianying_has_set_a_good_example_to_us.From_her,_I_realize_that_we_should_keep_on_trying_until_we_realize_our_dreams.
