英文写作要点有哪些
英语作文写作就是通过语言表达自己的思想。这里面包括两个要素：语言和思想，这两点缺一不可。在运用母语写作时，我们基本上不用花很多时间和精力去考虑语言表达方面的问题，我们的重点是放在内容的表达上。但是在英语作文写作时，既要考虑内容方面的问题，又要考虑语言表达方面的问题。如果处理不好这两者之间的关系，就可能永远也学不好英语写作。下面是本站小编整理的英文写作要点，以供大家学习参考。
一、英文作文的原则
1. 内容和形式的问题
l 驾驭英语语言的能力
l 内容服务于形式
2. 语言现象丰富：
l 各种从句(如定语从句和名词性从句)
l 倒装句
l 虚拟语气
l 插入语
l 强调句
l 名言警句
l 关联词
3. Examples：
1) Beijing is a big city. Beijing is the capital city of China. Beijing has just hosted the 2008 Olympic Games. (Beijing, the capital city of China, is a big city, which has just hosted the 2008 Olympic Games.)
2) Only by working hard can you find a good job in the future.
3) I would have traveled around Canada, if I had had the chance.
4) As everybody knows, still water runs deep.
5) Storms make trees take deeper roots. Rome wasn’t built in a day.
6) No man or woman is worth your tears, but the one who is, won’t make you cry.
7) The Empire State Building is one of the most famous scenic spots in the world.
8) China has a history/civilization/rich and splendid culture of 5,000 years.
二、英文作文的结构
1. 五段式(总分总)
l 适用于各种论说文
l 层次分明
l 四、六级作文视情况而定，灵活掌握
2. 模板的概念
l 在作文中，有些套话每次都可以用，适用于不同的题目。这些套话可以并且应该在考试之前准备好，称作模板。模板的运用对于考试作文有非常实际和重要的意义。
l 运用模板时要注意，尽量开发自己的模板，避免和他人的重复;考试前运用模板多写几篇有质量的作文，把模板用熟，背熟。
3. 模板的作用
l 适用于不同题目的套话
l 增加字数
l 提高作文水平

三、理由的原则
1. 理由要“弱智”(避免意义深刻的复杂理由)
l 托福真题：High school students should wear uniforms in school. Do you agree or disagree?
l 理由：Money, Time, Nice and neat
2. 理由要清晰地分成3段，严禁把若干个理由混在一起写
It not only saves money, but also saves time. And yet, it looks nice and neat. 此为“自杀型”写法
3. 举例说明
避免论述，Try as specific as you can!
4. “万能理由”
l 托福真题：Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? The best way to travel is in a group led by a tour guide. Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.
l 此题目依然可以沿用诸如：省钱、省时间的理由。
