一提到開放型作文很多同學都非常頭疼,不知道從何下手,筆者根據自己多年的教學經驗總結了這類作文的分析方法和答題技巧,希望對同學們有所幫助。
“開放作文”的命題方式是讓考生根據一幅圖畫,在描述圖畫信息之余,發(fā)揮自己的想象,展開簡單的議論。北京市的“開放作文”和全國碩士研究生入學診斷的英語作文有點像,F在,北京市“開放作文”傾向于“就圖論事”,和04年的“續(xù)寫型開放作文”有很大差異。
首先我要提醒同學們:不要花太多時間挖掘圖畫深意!英語作文不看重你的思想深度,而看重你的語言質量。有的同學把大量的時間花費在挖掘圖片深意上,力求立意新穎,別具匠心,這種做法不但容易引起偏題、跑題的現象發(fā)生,而且還會來不及在語言上細細潤色,那就會吃很大的虧。
開放作文試題的要求一般都會這樣描述:1)文章扣題:描述有的放矢,突出主題;2)思維活躍:發(fā)散思維空間,孩子從不同的、全新的角度看待分析一個事物或現象。3)內容健康充實:內容要點樂觀向上,以積極的態(tài)度進行表達。這個在平時的訓練中就應注意培養(yǎng)成一種穩(wěn)定的思維方式,以防止在遇到稍微有一點新意的題時亂了陣腳,不知道說什么。
下面我們仔細研究一下開放性作文的答題方法:
一、寫作步驟
仔細審圖片內容,即圖片中的物象包括些什么,及其他們各自的特點。這是為整篇作文立意的前提。
發(fā)揮創(chuàng)新思維和發(fā)散思維能力,嘗試多角度立意(如從人生哲理,學習態(tài)度,社會意義等方面立論)
確定論點,并組織論證過程。在論證過程中,常用的論述方法是正反論述,對比論述,聯系實際舉例論述。句與句之間連接成分的恰當使用,可使議論部分脈絡更加清晰,語言邏輯關系更加流暢。
所以,從結構上講,開放作文有明顯的套路可循。其實“開放作文”只要求做兩件事,一件是描圖(describethepicture),另一件是闡述你對圖畫的看法(explainhowyouunderstandit),但是,我建議在“描述”和“闡述”之間加一個適當的“過渡”。總之,開放作文應分成三段:描圖----析圖---總結“組句成篇,
二.開放作文有很多可供參考的”通用句子“這里跟大家分享一下:
描圖部分:
描圖部分:
As the picture vividly conveys,
As can be seen from the picture/as you can see in the picture,
What an interesting/funny picture!
析圖部分:
In my opinion, figure refers to /stand for/represent…
As far as I'm concerned,
It's reasonable to relate…to…
There are people/things just like ones in the picture.
This picture reflects a common social phenomenon that…
This picture represents common people in our life.
This picture conveys the message that…
What the picture wants to tell us is that…
This picture tells us an important thing in our life…
The picture indicates that…
The picture tries to convey an attitude towards life.
It happens in life that…
Such a situation seems fairly common in our society
總結部分
In conclusion
To sum up
In a word
Only by….can we….
It's high time that….
較后咱們以2008年”開放作文“試題為例,一起來解析一下寫作思路:
2008年北京”開放作文“試題如下:
請根據下面提示,寫一篇短文,詞數不少于50。
InanEnglishspeechcompetition,
youareaskedtodescribethefollowingpictureandexplaintothejudgeshowyouunderstandit。
從這幅圖中,有的同學會有這樣一個立意:圓規(guī)驕傲,鉛筆努力,執(zhí)著,宣揚一種奮斗精神。
還有孩子會說:圓規(guī)原地踏步而鉛筆勇往直前。鼓勵人們?yōu)閷崿F人生目標而前進。
另外還有一種說法:圓規(guī)可以畫出精彩的圓,鉛筆可以畫出筆直的線。選擇適當的工具完成適當的目標。
有了這幾種不同的立意,考生只要抓住其中一個論點繼而自圓其說,按照剛才做說的寫作步驟,就能較為成功的完成此篇作文,得到一個理想的分數。
較后,筆者給大家呈現一篇考場佳作,一起來欣賞一下:
In this picture, a pair of compasses, easily draws a circle on the paper, taking pride in itself, while with sweat dropping down, a pencil tries arduously but persistently to draw a large square.
The picture indicates that pride limits our ability and hard work can make us get improved. People, just like the compasses in the picture, are so proud of their own advantages that they become reluctant to better themselves. As a consequence, their potential and ability stop accumulating but remain where they are. However, some pencil-like people, sweating all over, can also draw a unique square of their own if they always do their most to run forward.
In conclusion, we should not resemble the compasses whose pride limits the length of the circle's radium. We should cast aside the pride and meanwhile learn form the pencil who is humbly drawing the largest square. Continuing to cultivate our ability and working industriously can help ourselves to the fullest.
此文結構清晰,立意明確,并能通過嚴謹的推理,層層推進較終來支撐論點。另外,作者語言駕馭能力很強,句式結構清晰而不失靈活,語法上準確無誤,并且句與句之間邏輯關系明確,使用了適當的過渡語,使句與句之間銜接更加緊密連貫。并且本文亮點頗多,主要體現在復合句的使用和高級詞匯的使用,體現出該考生深厚的語言功底。
結構-要點-邏輯-語法-亮點面面俱到,所以本文不失為一篇令人叫絕的佳作,值得大家學習。
