篇3：在英语写作基础中如何把握主题句

英语写作基础是全国高等教育自学考试英语专业基础阶段的一门必考科目。试题中就有一道题型为标出主题句, 占总分值的15%。这也是很多学生大为头疼的问题。因此, 如何正确找出主题句就显得比较重要。

二、主题句的内涵 (definition of the topic sentence)

主题句 (the topic sentence) 是一个段落中重要的句子, 是段落的“纲”。它说明段落的中心思想和作者写作的目的。主题句连接所有支持句 (supporting sentences) , 使它们成为一个有机的整体。主题句主要有三个方面的功能:

1. 限制内容范围

主题句的作用是概括一个段落的中心意思, 所以往往是一个表示一般概念的句子。范围太大或太小, 都会使作者无法展开段落, 必须要通过某些限制性词语将范围限制到一定程度, 因此主题句应包括主题 (topic) 和限制性词语 (主题思想) (controlling idea) 。

2. 体现段落展开的方向

主题句暗示读者段落可能展开的方向、涉及的内容及作者的思路。

3. 预示段落展开的方法

主题句起着开宗明义、提纲挈领的作用, 其余的与主题相关的支持句都围绕主题句来展开, 用来阐明、证实主题句。

三、主题句的位置

英语文章中绝大多数的主题句都出现在段首。这是因为段首的位置比较显著, 容易吸引读者, 也容易给他们留下深刻印象, 有助于迅速掌握段落信息和理解其内容。当然, 也有主题句出现在段尾或段落当中的, 甚至不明显表露。

1. 主题句位于段首

The recent water shortage in California forced changes inCalifornian’s life-styles.When water was rationed, Californians learned to conserve water.They didn’t water their lawns or gardens or wash their automobiles.

2. 主题句位于段尾

The sky is clear blue.Sparrows chirp in the early mornings.The fruit trees in the backyard are beginning to bloom.The hills are turning green, and purple and yellow wildflowers are appearing in the fields.The snow on top of Camel Mountain has all melted.It must finally be spring.

段尾主题句具有结论作用, 是对前面句子的归纳总结。这种段落结构通常能在读者心中制造悬念, 吸引读者继续读下去, 直至最后一句总结作者主要观点的主题句, 因此, 段尾的主题句往往能给读者留下深刻的印象。

3. 主题句位于段中

Californians and New Englanders are both American.They speak the same lauguage and abide by the same federal laws.But they are very different in their way of life.Mobility——both physical and psychological——has made a great impression on the culture of Californians;lack of mobility is the mark of the New Englanders.

主题句位于段中通常适用于对两种事物或某种事物的两个方面进行比较 (comparison) 或对比 (contrast) 。这种段落通常先提出一个论点并稍加发挥, 接着出现主题句, 提出不同的或相反的论点, 然后展开论证。段中主题句具有承上启下的过渡作用。

4. 隐含主题句

一些段落可以没有明确的主题句, 但读者通过阅读整个段落可以很容易体会或自己概括出来。这类通过读者归纳的主题句称为“隐含主题句”。

四、主题句的写法

一个好的主题句对于段落写作至关重要, 主题句必须观点明确, 既要有概括性, 又不能过于笼统或无边无际;既要具体明确, 又要不能过于狭窄。一个好的主题句应当包括以下两个部分:主题 (topic) +主题思想 (controlling idea) 。

主题是向读者表明这个段落讨论什么方面的问题, 而主题思想则表明作者对这一方面的看法, 即一个等待发展的思想。也就是说, 同一个主题, 由于看法不同, 会有不同意思的主题句。例如:

(1) Television commercials主题 (topic) are often very+misleading.主题思想 (controlling idea)

(2) Television commercials主题 (topic) are often very+imaginative.主题思想 (controlling idea)

按例子 (1) 主题句写成的段落是阐述广告的误导作用, 而例子 (2) 主题句写成的段落是阐述广告的创意。显然主题思想使主题具体化、观点化了, 使讨论有方向, 有东西可以说。

要写好主题句, 必须注意以下四点:

A.意义完整:主题句必须是一个意义完整、符合语法结构的句子。

B.表意清晰:主题句不能包含两种或两种以上的意义, 要易于识别、确认。

C.避免笼统而抽象的概述。如:“The book is interesting in content.”比“The book is interesting.”更好些。

D.不宜采用问句的形式。像“Is it worthwhile to go after fashion?”不宜作为主题句。主题句是作者思维的起点、切题的准绳、阐述的对象, 拓展好主题句关系到文章的成败。

现在就如何拓展主题句从语言形式上和内容上加以阐述。

1. 语言形式上

1.1平行结构的运用

平行结构作为一种使句子变得紧凑而错落有致的写作方式, 有以下功效:句式优美、表达清晰、重点突出, 使用尽可能少的词传达了尽可能多的信息。例如:主题句为Video games are a kind of entertainment.利用平行结构拓展为:They bringpleasures to youngsters, train them to respond quickly, stimulate their imagination in electronics.不难看出, 此处内容丰富具体、行文流畅, 有极强的说服力。

1.2句式灵活多变

若文中的简单句出现得太多, 就会显得单调、含混、不生动。要写出生动而鲜明的句子, 可通过乔姆斯基的转化生成语法中的嵌入方式来实现。一个简单句, 嵌入定语、状语、补语后, 变得生动有趣。如:Books telling people how to adap themselves to the society are worth reading.读起来比“Books are worth reading.”更耐人寻味, 是由于前一个句子中的主语前加了一个复杂的定语。在拓展主题句时, 注意适时地变换句式, 是一种有效的写作策略, 同时能使文章产生意想不到的文学效果。

1.3使用符合英美人表达习惯的习语

能将诸如attach great importance to, leave a deep impression on, in due course, get the jump on等习语运用到文章中, 反映了作者一定的语言功底和较高的英语表达水平。

1.4连接手段的补充

准确地使用一些signal words, 总能让松散的拓展句自然地衔接起来, 而且整个段落层次分明、前后连贯。

常用于表示因果关系的连词有:so, hence, thus, therefore, as a result等。

常用于表示递进关系的连词有:besides, moreover, furthermore, additionally等。

常用于表示转折关系的连词有:however, nevertheless, but, yet, on the other hand等。

常用于表示对比关系的表达方式有:on the contrary, on the other hand, by contrast, unlike, whereas, rather than等。

常用于举例说明的表达方式有:for example, for instance, as an illustration, such as等。

常用于总结全文的表达方式有:in a word, to sum up, in short, thus, on the whole, finally等。

2. 内容上

2.1化抽象的概述为细节的描述

抽象的概述总会给人言之无物的感觉, 若再进行具体的描述, 文章内容会顿时充实起来, 变得有血有肉, 不再枯燥乏味, 似乎有生命力了。例如:Music is everywhere.这是一个内容抽象的主题句, 我们找到切入点后, 可在everywhere上做文章, 于是接下来可拓展为:We can hear it in restaurants, airports, hospitals, supermarkets and many other public places.再如:People can acquire skills through recreation.这也是个概述, 若充实以下内容就丰富多了, 即, They can learn to fish, paint, plan flowers and do paper cutting.另外, 这里的learn to正好与acquire相对应。

2.2从不同角度选材

选材时应考虑到段落的单一性和完整性, 单一性即一个中心思想, 完整性就是要避免支离破碎或内容仅局限在某一狭窄的范围内。材料要做到涵盖面广, 而且愈典型愈好, 但也不能凭空编造, 应以事实为基础, 这样一来, 就避免了片面性或谬误。例如:主题句为Science and technology benefits human being much. (科学技术给人类带来益处) , 在展开此主题句的过程中, 可从农业、医学、电讯业等不同角度来补充材料, 行文如下:Science makes it possible for a nation to ensure food andclothing (农业方面) , science can make people live longer (医学方面) , and it’s science that makes it a small world (通讯方面) 。

五、结语

当然, 提高写作水平非一日之功, 要注意平时不断地积累, 尽可能增加语言的输入量, 写作时才能得心应手。这样, 假以时日, 自然而然就提高了用英语流畅地表达思想的能力。

摘要：主题句是英语写作基础教学中的一个难点, 如何找准主题句并进行拓展主题句的写作一直是学生头疼的问题。本论文主要从主题句的内涵和位置、如何写好主题句以及拓展段落角度来阐述主题句的重要性。

篇4：英语正确句和有效句写作浅议

关键词：一致性；连贯性；简明性；强调性；多样性

中图分类号：G712 文献标识码：A 文章编号：1674-9324（2012）02-0100-02

一、引言

很多学生认为影响其英语写作水平的因素主要是语法规则和词汇运用，事实上影响表达句意的因素很多，如汉语思维、用词搭配不当，句子逻辑关系混乱、句子之间的连贯性较差、标点符号混乱、语法错误等等，究其根源主要是没有掌握正确句和有效句的写作方法及一些习惯性写作错误。

二、学生写作中常见错误分析

（一）残缺句

在口语中，交际双方可通过多种方式达到交际目的，如手势语、上下文，不完整句等。可书面语就不同了，句子结构不完整很难表情达意。初学者首先要牢牢掌握正确句最基本的四个要素：①结构完整，即至少有一个主谓，包括省略的主语；②句首字母大写；③句末加注表示句子结束的标点，如句号，问号，感叹号；④句意完整。如：How to operate this computer？剖析：本句中缺少主语和谓语，不是一个完整的句子，不能独立成句。

（二）词的误用

“词的误用”一般情况下表现为词性误用，但因写作需要，还可根据写作目的，读者及作者的写作风格等分类，如一般写作目的用普通词；特殊职业，场合或写作目的使用正式的专业词汇；当读者为特殊年龄，地区或未受教育的群体时可使用非标准词汇。

（三）不间断句子

不间断句子即流水句，就是因汉语思维习惯的影响，没有运用适当的连接词及标点符号或缺乏连接词或标点符号的长句。

例：There are many ways we get to know the outside world.

（四）措词毛病

所谓措词毛病是指在特定的句子中如何适当地选用词语的问题，即用词不当。如：The increasing use of chemical obstacles in agriculture also makes pollution.

剖析：显然，学生把obstacles“障碍”，“障碍物”误作substance“物质”了。另外increasing use（不断增加的使用）”应改为“abusive use（滥用）”。

三、增强句子有效性的方法

正确句不能有效地表情达意，而有效句是正确句不足的有力补充。所谓有效句指一个句子能有效的输出以便成功的达到交际目的。英语句子的有效性是英语句子修辞问题最核心的部分，是英语作文的之关键。句子的有效性需达到以下几个或所有的要求：一致性，连贯性，简明性，强调性，多样性。

（一）一致性

句子的一致性指中心思想单一，完整，句中其他附属思想必须紧紧围绕中心思想。如：He visited this ancient city，and he also found out that the people had to pay heavy taxes.剖析：此句中包含两件事实，但两件事实逻辑上没有联系。此句应分成两个独立分句。

（二）连贯性

句子的连贯性指是句子通过一定的衔接手段来表明句子各成分之间的连贯性。通常指逻辑、语法和语义等方面要连贯，全句句意清楚，衔接符合逻辑。习作者只要避免以下错误，就能达到连贯性的要求。①避免不一致。不一致指主谓、数、时态及代词等不一致。②避免悬垂修饰语。所谓悬垂修饰语是指句首的分词短语，介词短语，动词不定式等与后面句子的逻辑主语不一致。③避免不平衡句。所谓平衡句是由三个或三个以上结构相同或相似、内容相关、证据一致的短语或句子排列在一起，用来加强语势强调内容，加重感情的修辞方式。④避免修饰语错位。英汉表达的顺序不同，同一个修饰语置于句子不同的位置，句子的含义可能发生变化。中国学生习惯将汉语译成英语，因而造成了不必要的误解。

（三）句子的简明性

举世闻名的英国剧作家，诗人莎士比亚有句名言：“言以简洁为贵”。所谓简洁，就是语言凝练概括，高度浓缩，简明扼要。在写作中长期坚持遵从以下五条炼句原则，就能增强句子的简洁性：①用代词代替重复的名词。②用词代替有相同含义的词组；用词组代替相同含义的从句。③不要在同一句中重复词或短语。④在同一句中避免使用同义词。⑤在不同的句中不要重复相同的含义，除了强调目的外。

（四）句子的强调性

口语中强调的方式很多且简单易行，如升调、加重语气、放慢语速、说短句或手势等。书面语中给句子不同成分以不同的重要性，也能使句意凸显，使读者一目了然。

1.层重句。句首和句末通常最能吸引读者的注意力，因此句中重要成分可放在这两个位置，尤其是句子的末尾。如：Only Yang could have written such a nice essay，though there are twenty-five students in the class.剖析：主语“Yang”是最应突出的部分，所以应放在句尾。

2.层进句。就字面意思可理解为层层递进。在列数一系列事实或观点时，以顶点顺序排列。如：Ant is a symbol of wisdom，industry and efficiency.

剖析：勤劳是蚂蚁生存的根本，是最容易做到的，而智慧是任何动物都很难达到的。因此智慧是最重要的，勤劳是次要的。

3.重复法.在日常写作中我们应避免重复，只有在强调句中含有重要信息的单词或者短语时使用重复法，获得强调重要思想的效果。如：Two days ago he gave reasons for supporting the plan，and now he is giving reasons for opposing it.He always has reasons.

剖析：重复关键词“reasons”，体现出“he”的性格特点：善变，立场不坚定。

强调句子的方法很多，本文只阐述了写作中能经常用到且很容易掌握的几种方法，以供参考。

（五）句式多样性

写作中如果一味追求短句，追求简洁，有时会弄巧成拙，适得其反。因为一篇文章如果都是千篇一律的简单句，势必导致文体松散，文章粗糙浅显，毫无生气。下面用一个最简单的SVO句型介绍简单易行的句式多样化方法。如：The boy ate pizza.可将此例句分别转化为问句、被动句、感叹句、扩展此句或使用转换词语等。如扩展例句：The boy wolfed down the pizza and then ran outside to play.我们在写作中要注意长短句交替使用，但这种交替使用并不是机械的，而是根据不同的语境，选择最能表达作者意图的句子。

四、结语

写作能力是语言运用能力的一种表现，而句子是文章的基础。英语是世界上最富有表达力的语言之一。它的句型变化灵活多样，丰富多彩。同一思想内容可以用多种语言形式来表达。要想提高写作能力，首先从正确句入手，一篇文章只有在准确表达思想的基础上方可力求句子的有效性，才能表现出文章丰富的内涵、优美的文字，才使显得文章生动有力。
