英語(yǔ)屬結(jié)構(gòu)型語(yǔ)言,掌握句子結(jié)構(gòu)對(duì)英語(yǔ)寫作很有幫助。高考英語(yǔ)書面表達(dá)要求考生根據(jù)所給情景和要求,用自己的語(yǔ)言寫出一篇句子連貫、用詞貼切,要點(diǎn)完整的短文,這對(duì)中學(xué)生來(lái)說(shuō)并非易事。在掌握基本句型的基礎(chǔ)上,如何提高造句能力,使用較為復(fù)雜的語(yǔ)法結(jié)構(gòu),使句式豐富多彩;如何使用過(guò)渡性連接詞,使短文語(yǔ)句連貫、邏輯嚴(yán)密,將是高三備考中不可或缺的內(nèi)容。

→ Her mother is a doctor, so is she.
2. You must get up early tomorrow. You will miss the first bus.
→ Get up early tomorrow,or you will miss the first bus.
如果兩個(gè)或更多的簡(jiǎn)單句之間在邏輯上是并列、同等關(guān)系,就可以選擇恰當(dāng)?shù)牟⒘羞B詞將其合成一個(gè)并列句。
練習(xí)題型二:簡(jiǎn)單句連成復(fù)合句
1. She was not satisfied with this.She tried to think of a better solution to the problem.
→ As she was not satisfied with this, she tried to think of a better solution to the problem.(原因狀語(yǔ)從句)

3. President Bush of the U.S.A. will pay a visit to China.
One of my classmates told me the news.
→ One of my classmates told me the news that President bush of the U.S.A. would pay a visit to China.(同位語(yǔ)從句)
如果兩個(gè)或更多的簡(jiǎn)單句所表達(dá)的意思有主次之分,先分析它們的關(guān)系,弄清哪個(gè)表示主要的意思,哪個(gè)表示從屬的意思,進(jìn)而弄清主要意思與從屬意思之間有何種邏輯關(guān)系,選擇恰當(dāng)?shù)倪B接詞或關(guān)系詞把這兩個(gè)句子合成一個(gè)復(fù)合句,使一個(gè)從屬于另一個(gè)。
練習(xí)題型三:簡(jiǎn)單句合二為一
1.My brother is very young. He cant look after himself.

2. The murderer was brought in. His hands were tied behind his back.

3. A foreign language is a useful tool in serving the people. We should work hard at it and have a good knowledge of it.
→ A foreign language being a useful tool in serving the people, we should work hard at it and have a good knowledge of it.(獨(dú)立主格結(jié)構(gòu)作原因狀語(yǔ))
如果兩個(gè)或多個(gè)簡(jiǎn)單句在意思上有主從關(guān)系,就可以把表示從屬意思的句子改寫成非謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞(分詞、動(dòng)名詞、不定式),with的復(fù)合結(jié)構(gòu)、獨(dú)立主格結(jié)構(gòu)、使其在句子中作狀語(yǔ),定語(yǔ),主語(yǔ)等成分。
練習(xí)題型四:用固定結(jié)構(gòu)改寫
1. This young boy is always helping the old man.
→It is this young boywhois always helping the old man.
(強(qiáng)調(diào)句)
2. You can solve the problem in this way.
→ Only in this way can you solve this problem. (倒裝句)

4. When it is compared with the size of the whole earth, the biggest ocean doesnt big at all.
→ When compared with the size of the whole earth, the biggest ocean doesnt big at all. (狀語(yǔ)從句的省略)
強(qiáng)調(diào)句、倒裝句、感嘆句、省略句等固定句型表意傳情的效果很強(qiáng)。如果要強(qiáng)調(diào)某一句話或句子的某一個(gè)成分,強(qiáng)調(diào)說(shuō)話人的意圖或情感,就可以用強(qiáng)調(diào)句、倒裝句、感嘆句等固定句型改寫原句,如果要使句子簡(jiǎn)潔明了,避免重復(fù),就可以用省略句改寫原句,均可獲得良好的效果。
練習(xí)題型五:一句多譯
1. 使我吃驚的是這次他得了滿分。
1) What surprised me was that he got full marks this time.
2) It made me surprised that he got full marks this time.
3) It was surprising that he got full marks this time.
4) He got full marks this time, which made me surprised.
5) I was surprised that he got full marks this time.
6) To my surprise, he got full marks this time.
“話有三說(shuō),巧說(shuō)為妙”,在特定的上下文里,同一個(gè)意思,用不同的方式表達(dá)出來(lái),會(huì)有意外的效果。一句多譯訓(xùn)練的目的是讓學(xué)生多角度思考問(wèn)題,靈活運(yùn)用所學(xué)知識(shí),幫助學(xué)生在寫作時(shí)能觸類旁通,靈活多變。
練習(xí)題型六:過(guò)渡詞的使用

總之,寫作是一個(gè)由淺入深、由易到難、由簡(jiǎn)到繁的訓(xùn)練過(guò)程,任何一個(gè)環(huán)節(jié)出問(wèn)題都會(huì)影響學(xué)生寫作能力的培養(yǎng)。
