在大学英语四、六级考试中,写作所占比重不小,是得分难点。写英语作文,就像建造一座摩天大楼,方法很多,它可以一砖一瓦地堆砌,也可以模块化地快速构建。在时间紧迫、学习任务繁重的情况下,后者无疑是我们的最佳选择。较好地掌握四、六级英语写作的规律,就可以在考试中胸有成竹、游刃有余。这里我总结了四六级作文中常用到的优秀句型,希望能够给考生一些帮助和启示。
一、过渡句
过渡句在文章中发挥着连接上下文的作用,恰当的运用过渡句会使文章连贯、流畅。常用的过渡句有:
①It is (high) time that
… 到…时候了
例:It is high time that the issue
were to be solved so as to promote the economic
development.
为了促进经济发展到该解决问题的时候了。
②It
is only when… that… 只有当…才…
例:It is only when people become
the masters of the country that science can serve the
people.
只有当人民成为国家的主人,科学才能为人民服务。
③To begin with...,
moreover…,
finally…,
首先…,此外…,最后…,
例:To begin with, he is very
interested in social affairs and it seems the best way to enable
him to engage in these activities. Moreover, his father is a
lawyer. He has always encouraged him to do something similar.
Finally, he is sure he can get a job after
graduation.
首先,他对社会事物感兴趣,学习法律有助于他参加这项活动。此外,他父亲是个律师,一直鼓励他从事同样的职业。最后,他确信毕业后能找到工作。
④Among…reasons, one should be emphasized
that… 在众多的原因中,其中一点给于强调…
例:Among the most important reasons, one reason
should be emphasized that large pieces of cultivated land have been
occupied, which results in the grain shortage.
在许多重要的原因中,其中一点应强调的是造成粮食减产是因为大量的可耕地被占用。
二、状语从句
写作中能合理、正确地使用状语从句,不但能地道的表达英文习惯,而且还能使文体结构更加严谨、美观。
①由while 引导的状语从句
例:When it comes to traveling,
some of the people will choose to go on a selftour while others
want to go on a package tour.
当然这里叙述的是两类人不同的做法,与上述观点的对立有所不同。
②条件状语从句
if和so long
as引导的条件状语从句,其中so long as
比if的语气强烈。
例:So long as you study
hard,you’ll make progress.
只要你努力,你就会取得进步。
③结果状语从句
由so…that…,so that或such…that…引导的,可以译为“如此……以至于……”
例:This is such an interesting
book that we all enjoy reading it.
这本书非常有趣,我们都喜欢看。
④让步状语从句
由though,
although引起的,意为:“虽然”。由even if, even
though引起的,意为:“即使”。由no matter how, however,
whatever引起的,意为:“不管……“。
例:We’ll make a trip even if the
weather is bad.
即使天气不好,我们也要作一次旅行。
