大学英语四级写作 从体裁来看,四级作文主要以议论文和说明 文为主,主要包括:
1. 对比论述型 2. 对策方法型 3. 现象分析型(包括: 问题分析型) 4. 图表分析型 5. 叙事型 6.观点论证型 7. 应用文型
1. 对比论述型 这类作文多为提纲式作文,议论文体裁。通过论述 相反的两个观点,或分析评论某一社会现象的优缺 点,然后给出自己的见解和看法,是四级考试写作 中最常见的作文形式。 例如: Should the University Campus Be Open to Tourists? (2005. 12) 1. 名校校园正成为旅游新热点 2. 校园是否应对游客开放, 人们看法不同 3. 我认为。。。 Is a Test of Spoken English Necessary? 1. 很多人认为有必要举行英语口语考试,理由 是。。。 2. 也有人持不用的意见。。。 3. 我的看法和打算
对比分析类作文主要有两种:
1) 是需要考生对比阐述两种观点或做法及各 自的理由,人后表明自己的观点或做法并说明 理由; 2) 是需要考生对比阐述某事物的利和弊、好 处和坏处或优点和缺点,继而表明自己的看法 或态度。 下面的模板是针对第一种类型来讲解,至于第 二种类型,考生只需要在掌握第一种类型结构 的基础上进行适当变形即可。
