在CET4/6試題中,有兩個拉分最厲害的部分,一是聽力題,一是作文題。,跟漢語作文的“起承轉(zhuǎn)合”類似,英語作文其實也有固定模式。
我到那里一看,果然有五個模板,認(rèn)真拜讀一遍之后,不由得大吃二驚。第一驚的是:我們中國真是高手如林,多么復(fù)雜、困難的問題,都能夠迎刃而解,實在佩服之極。第二驚的是:“八股文”這朵中國傳統(tǒng)文化的奇葩,在凋謝了一百多年之后,竟然又在中華大地上重新含苞怒放,真是可喜可賀。
感慨之后,轉(zhuǎn)入正題。這五個模板,在結(jié)構(gòu)上大同小異,掌握一種即可,所以我從中挑選了一個最簡單、最實用的,稍加修改,給各位介紹一下。這個模板的中文大意是:在某種場合,發(fā)生某種現(xiàn)象,并提供一些相關(guān)數(shù)據(jù),然后列出這種現(xiàn)象的三個原因,并將三個原因總結(jié)為一個最主要原因,最后提出避免這種現(xiàn)象的兩個辦法?偟膩碚f,利用這個模板寫英語作文,是相當(dāng)容易的,您只要將適當(dāng)?shù)膬?nèi)容,填寫到對應(yīng)的方括號中,一篇通順的英語作文即可完成。下面就是這個模板。
Nowadays, there are more and more [某種現(xiàn)象] in [某種場合]. It is estimated that [相關(guān)數(shù)據(jù)]. Why have there been so many [某種現(xiàn)象]? Maybe the reasons can be listed as follows. The first one is [原因一]. Besides, [原因二]. The third one is [原因三]. To sum up, the main cause of [某種現(xiàn)象] is due to [最主要原因]. It is high time that something were done upon it. For one thing, [解決辦法一]. On the other hand, [解決辦法二]. All these measures will certainly reduce the number of [某種現(xiàn)象].
為便于讀者理解,我特意用這個模板,寫了一篇關(guān)于ghost writer(捉刀代筆的槍手)的示范性小作文,請您觀摩一下。
Nowadays, there are more and more [ghost writers / 槍手] in [China's examinations / 中國的考場]. It is estimated that [5% examinees are ghost writers / 5%的應(yīng)試者是槍手]. Why have there been so many [ghost writers / 槍手]? Maybe the reasons can be listed as follows. The first one is [hirers' ignorance / 雇主無知]. Besides, [hirers' indolence / 雇主懶惰]. The third one is [hirers' obtusity / 雇主遲鈍]. To sum up, the main cause of [ghost writers / 槍手] is due to [hirers' low IQ / 雇主智商低]. It is high time that something were done upon it. For one thing, [flagellation / 鞭打]. On the other hand, [decapitation / 斬首]. All these measures will certainly reduce the number of [ghost writers / 槍手].
