英文寫作的常見誤區(qū)
在總結(jié)了以上開頭中間結(jié)尾段落的寫作技巧之后，考生基本能夠?qū)懗鲆黄峡荚囈蟮膽?yīng)試作文，然而，在遣詞造句方面，考生還需要注意一些誤區(qū)。以下常見誤區(qū)總結(jié)，是筆者總結(jié)各種英語作文考試，中國學(xué)生普遍存在的問題。
誤區(qū)Ⅰ 使用句型太復(fù)雜以致出錯
作文的寫作強調(diào)的是內(nèi)容連貫，句子通順，語言流暢，并且句子與句子之間能夠用恰當(dāng)?shù)年P(guān)聯(lián)詞銜接起來，并不要求寫出多復(fù)雜的句子。但有些考生理解為只有句子長了，所用的從句多了才更純正，所以使用各種從句分詞等，致使文章言不達意，錯誤百出，效果適得其反。
誤區(qū)Ⅱ 加入太多的想象成分，使內(nèi)容細節(jié)過多，文章冗長。
學(xué)生在寫作中的一大擔(dān)心就是文章的長度不夠，再加上對于“可適當(dāng)增減細節(jié)，不可字對字的翻譯”的誤解，于是加入了很多離題較遠的細節(jié)，亂了主題。不可字對字其實只要求學(xué)生不可簡單照譯，并非不可翻譯。學(xué)生只要在理解寫作要求的基礎(chǔ)上以翻譯為主，在要點之間加上簡練恰當(dāng)與必要的關(guān)聯(lián)詞和關(guān)聯(lián)句即可。翻譯要點可直譯也可意譯，但要恰當(dāng)準(zhǔn)確，用已學(xué)過的詞語與句型，切不可生搬硬造。
誤區(qū)Ⅲ 書寫不規(guī)范造成大量失分。
由于該卷的主觀性，作文的卷面分往往不只1、2分。因此寫作的規(guī)范與書法非常重要，甚至所用墨水的顏色也應(yīng)列入考慮之列，比如，淺色的墨水或油筆寫出的字就顯得亂，而深色的如碳素墨水則給人以整齊美觀的印象。這里介紹幾個應(yīng)注意的地方。
1.好的開頭和結(jié)尾。
好的開頭與結(jié)尾往往給人以好的印象。一般開頭不要寫得太羅嗦，要找著恰當(dāng)?shù)那腥朦c，快速入題，簡潔明快。結(jié)尾同樣不拖泥帶水，最好還能適當(dāng)評論，寫出點睛之筆。
2.用好關(guān)聯(lián)詞。
在寫作的過程中，以下關(guān)聯(lián)詞的應(yīng)用非常關(guān)鍵。比如，表并列的and，besides，as well as，in addition to，not only…but also，when，表遞進的furthermore，what's more，what's worse，表轉(zhuǎn)折的but，while，on the contrary，on the other hand，however，表選擇的either…or…，whether…or…，otherwise等。有了這些詞的連接，就會使文章變得語句通順，層次清楚，有聲有色，考生不需用很多的復(fù)合句也能讓評卷人感覺到你的水平不同一般。
3.用好標(biāo)點符號、大小寫，安排好段落。
如果是漢語作文，學(xué)生大多注意標(biāo)點符號，但寫英語時一些考生就不夠認真。一篇文章下來一逗到底，沒有標(biāo)點的變化，沒有大小寫，沒有段落劃分（一般以兩段為宜），讓人一看就煩，更不要說得到高分。
4.用好情感詞語。
任何文章都有自己的觀點，英語小作文也不例外�？忌鷳�(yīng)注意用一些能反映自己觀點的詞，否則文章就很干癟，沒有韻味。沒有人愿意讀沒有感情的作文。
5.書寫清楚，整潔，規(guī)范。 附：考試作文常用的模版句子
