很多次當我看見native speaker的美文時,都忍不住在欣賞的同時暗暗揣摩他們的構思、文法和譴詞造句的功底,譬如J.K Rowling筆下的人物一個個都如此栩栩如生,她用詞千變萬化,引人入勝。那么,是不是我們就無法達到這樣的境界呢?答案當然是否定的拉!我曾看過一篇某高校非英語專業(yè)學生的文章,文筆和意境都讓我自嘆不如,汗。。。 所以只要下了工夫,用心鉆研,一定是會有回報的哦!我相信通過日積月累的不斷學習,大家都能用英語寫出讓老外驚羨的漂亮文章。
我的寫作老師曾大力推薦過我現(xiàn)在所參考和使用的這本寫作書,那么就讓我們從最簡單的開始,共同學習北外前輩們的智慧成果吧:
第一期:完整句和不完整句
一個語法結構完整的句子至少有一個主語和一個謂語動詞;如果是及物動詞,還得有一個賓語;如果是系動詞,則必須有一個表語或補語:
He won.
I owe you.
John is late.
定語和狀語雖不是句子中不可缺少的成分,但有助于表達清楚或完整的意思:
He won an easy victory.
I owe you $50.
John is late again.
需要注意的是:一個完整的句子以大寫字母開始,以句號結束。寫英文時用逗號代替句號、分號、冒號或破折號叫“逗號錯”,這正是中國學生所要避免的。請比較下列例句:
誤:It was raining hard, they could not work in the fields.
正:It was raining hard; they could not work in the fields.
It was raining hard. They could not work in the fields.
It was raining so hard that they could not work in the fields.
They could not work in the fields because it was raining hard.
It was raining hard, so they could not work in the fields.
As it was raining hard, they could not work in the fields.
誤:The essay is poorly organized, there is no central idea.
正:The essay is poorly organized; there is no central idea.
The essay is poorly organized: there is no central idea.
