英语四级大纲要求写作首尾句作文
首尾句作文是根据段首(尾)句续写短文。段首句作文也称主题句作文,因为作文题中所给的段首句往往是段落主题句。其特点是以题目为中心,一般情况下将文章分为三个段落,每段首句即为该段的主题句(topic sentences)。考生要按主题句的要求组织材料,提出论据,用一些辅助句(supporting sentences)来支持或说明主题句,写英文段首句作文要注意:所写的内容要紧扣主题,辅助句应围绕段首句续写。保证段内每个句子的内容与段首句紧密展开各个段落,如:例证、因果、定义、比较对比、程序等。要注意句与句之间,特别是段首句与辅助句之间的自然衔接。另外,所给的段首句有时是一个完整的句子,有时不是一个完整的句子,只是句子的一部分,这就要求考生一定要审好题。找出其中表示中心思想的关键词,围绕这些关键词去扩展、描述或说明。
