一、观点评论类作文高分策略
1.主题句策略
一篇短文必须要有一个主题,同学们在写作时也要有主题句,这个主题句一般放在文章的开头(保险型)或者结尾,让读者一目了然。如:(2012湖北卷范文)My experience tells me that it is not what you are given but how you make use of it that determines who you are.此外还要注意之后的展开部分可以使用地道的表达,谚语或名言等加以润色,增强文章的表现力。
2.造句策略
造句的基本原则是力求句式多变,语法灵活。为多样化起见,短句和长句、简单句、并列句和复合句应交错使用。下列表达前者一般,后者较高级。It's important to know about yourself. /What counts is to know about yourself. We can attain happiness in life only by overcoming the difficulties./Only by overcoming the difficulties can we attain happiness in life.应该注意的是,并非短文内所有的句子都需要复杂的句式结构,简单句和复杂句交替使用会让你的文章更有层次感。
3.流畅策略
一篇好的短文要求内容的完整性和连贯性,这就需要恰当地使用衔接词汇把有关要点和句子串联成文,做到层次清楚、衔接自然。整体语篇层次感要强,具体应做到以下两点:
(1)整体语篇用连接词等引出每一段,如:第一段:According to…,第二段:In my opinion…,第三段:All in al1,…(2)发表观点段中运用first.second,last或but,so等过渡词来列出自己的观点或内容。但衔接词语的使用也要适度,切忌为用而用。

真题解析 2013年湖北卷
请根据以下提示,并结合事例,用英语写一篇短文。We all know that“sticks and stones may break our bones”,but we should also be aware that words can hurt people,too.
注意:①无须写标题,不得照抄英语提示语;②除诗歌外,文体不限;③文中不得透露个人姓名和学校名称;④词数为120左右。
解题思路
步骤一:审题:(1)本题给出名言警句类的英语提示,要求学生结合事例写一篇英语短文。属于叙议结合、表达观点类短文。(2)定人称:叙述自己的故事用第一人称单数,叙述身边其他人的故事则应使用第三人称。 (3)定时态:叙述事例时应该用一般过去时,结合事例展开评论或表达自己的观点时则用一般现在时。
步骤二:构思短文结构。本题可以有两种行文结构。第一种可使用三段式的布局:第一段直接引入话题,阐述话题的含义;第二段叙述自己身边的事;第三段简短地再次升华主题,以做到首尾呼应。第二种可以安排两个段落,首段直接点出题目提示信息所揭示的观点,第二段举例进一步强化自己的观点。
步骤三:确定语言风格语言表述应符合观点类文章的语言特征,即应准确严谨,明确有力,有利于支持自己的观点。描述事例时语言应平铺真实,把要表达的内容自然而完整地表达清楚。阐述观点时的语言应强势有力,可以通过倒装、强调等句式来增加语言表达的力度。同时,文章应避免出现汉语式句子,要注意使用各种丰富的语法和词汇知识。应注意的是,好的词汇和高级句型虽然能使文章增色,但也要适可而止,不可冗长难懂。
优秀范文
I have recently become acquainted with the idea that not only can sticks and stones hurt people, but words can, too. I couldn’t agree with it more. As a society, we are just beginning to understand the damage that harsh words inflict on teenagers and their relationships later in life. ①
A bully is a person who enjoys hurting other people. A bully can hurt with words or violence. I remember clearly how I was bullied by the boys in my junior high school class.② Back then I was shy, afraid to talk to strangers. When I transferred to a new school after my dad got a new job, I was made fun of by some of the boys in my new class. They laughed at my accent and gave me nicknames. I got so upset that I couldn't focus on my studies. Luckily, I met Emma, an outgoing girl sitting near me. She invited me to lunch with her and her friends. She told me to ignore the boys' tricks and focus on my new life. Thanks to her help, I was able to fit into my new environment. The boys even apologized later. This story shows that words are powerful overall: they can hurt but they can also heal.③

影响。

③作者在此处并没有停留在题目要点给出的观点基础上,而是加以升华,言语不仅能伤害人,还能治愈人
