英語作文高分寫作技巧89：我對考試作弊的看法（議論文）

【本期內(nèi)容】

一、作文題目

家鄉(xiāng)從來就是一個令人魂牽夢繞的地方。你的家鄉(xiāng)在哪里？風(fēng)景又如何呢？請以“My hometown”為題，介紹一下你家鄉(xiāng)的地理位置和風(fēng)土人情等。詞數(shù)：≥80。

二、技巧點撥

（一）審題立意

根據(jù)題目說明，本篇作文在體裁上是一篇記敘文，要求介紹自己的家鄉(xiāng)。

（二）謀篇布局

根據(jù)題目內(nèi)容和體裁，本篇短文可分三段進(jìn)行寫作。

1、第一段

介紹家鄉(xiāng)的地理位置。

2、第二段

介紹家鄉(xiāng)四季的景致變化。

3、第三段

表達(dá)對家鄉(xiāng)的思念之情。

（三）遣詞造句

1、第一段

本段主要用來介紹家鄉(xiāng)的地理位置。如下面的范文所示：

My hometown is located in the southeast of China. It is a small but beautiful village with mountains around it. And there is a small and clean river running through the village.

【注意】

本段可先介紹家鄉(xiāng)的大致位置，然后描述家鄉(xiāng)的景致概貌。

注意，be located in表示“位于...”；注意在描述家鄉(xiāng)概貌時，在句子結(jié)構(gòu)上可采用with或分詞結(jié)構(gòu)來引導(dǎo)伴隨狀語或補充信息，如本段中的第二句話采用了with結(jié)構(gòu)，第三句話則采用了現(xiàn)在分詞短語結(jié)構(gòu)，來進(jìn)行信息的補充說明。

2、第二段

本段主要用來介紹家鄉(xiāng)四季的變化。如下面的范文所示：

In spring, flowers come out and the whole village looks like a wonderful picture. In the early afternoon of summer, children often swim in the river where they enjoy water fights very much. When autumn comes, villagers will harvest the fruits on the trees and the crops in the fields. On the sunny winter days, the senior villagers will bathe in the warm sunlight, chatting about their plans of the coming year.

【注意】

限于全文的篇幅，本段對于四個季節(jié)的描述，分別只采用了一句話，但是為了做到句式上的變化，每一句話在結(jié)構(gòu)上都有所不同：對于春季的描述，采用了and引導(dǎo)的并列句結(jié)構(gòu)；對于夏季的描述，采用了含有where引導(dǎo)的定語從句的復(fù)合句結(jié)構(gòu)；對于秋季的描述，采用了含有when引導(dǎo)的時間狀語從句的復(fù)合句結(jié)構(gòu)；對于冬季的描述，采用了含有現(xiàn)在分詞短語作伴隨狀語的簡單句結(jié)構(gòu)。

注意，water fights表示“打水仗”；harvest這里用作了動詞，表示“收割；收獲”；senior villagers表示“村里的老人們”；bathe in the sunlight表示“曬太陽”。

3、第三段

本段主要用來表達(dá)對家鄉(xiāng)的思念之情。如下面的范文所示：

Now I am studying in a different city, which is far away from my hometown, so I am always dreaming of my hometown, my dear old home!

【注意】

本段側(cè)重用來描述自己因為遠(yuǎn)離家鄉(xiāng)所以思鄉(xiāng)之情倍增，在句子結(jié)構(gòu)上建議采用表因果關(guān)系的并列句或復(fù)合句。

注意，am always dreaming of采用了現(xiàn)在進(jìn)行時，更能有感情地表達(dá)出自己對家鄉(xiāng)的魂牽夢縈，而my dear old home（我親愛的故鄉(xiāng)）作為my hometown的同位語，則進(jìn)一步烘托了這種濃濃的思鄉(xiāng)之情。

三、高分范文

My hometown

My hometown is located in the southeast of China. It is a small but beautiful village with mountains around it. And there is a small and clean river running through the village.

In spring, flowers come out and the whole village looks like a wonderful picture. In the early afternoon of summer, children often swim in the river where they enjoy water fights very much. When autumn comes, villagers will harvest the fruits on the trees and the crops in the fields. On the sunny winter days, the senior villagers will bathe in the warm sunlight, chatting about their plans of the coming year.

Now I am studying in a different city, far away from my hometown, so I am always dreaming of my hometown, my dear old home!

四、舉一反三

在謀篇布局上，本文也可以這樣安排：

1、第一段

介紹家鄉(xiāng)的地理位置。如下文所示：

My hometown is a small but pretty village, located in a valley among the mountains of South China.

2、第二段

介紹家鄉(xiāng)的風(fēng)土人情。如下文所示：

A bubbling stream cuts through our village all the year around, bringing us clear water and fatty fish. Along both banks of the stream, there are  patches of green vegetation, the major part of which are bamboos and fruit trees. Every late autumn, to celebrate the harvest of the year, we will hold a bonfire party, at which a generous feast will be prepared for each and every participant of the party. 

3、第三段

歡迎大家到家鄉(xiāng)做客。如下文所示：

Our village not only enjoys natural beauty and delicious food; it also nourishes hospitable villagers. So welcome to our village and be our guests of honour.
