1、第5讲概要写作概要写作实际上就是对所读过的文章简要而概括地写出文章的中心大意。写概要时,考生要把文章的具体信息用一些具有概括功能的词和句表述出来,而不是抄袭文章的句子。写概要也不是把细节性的信息作为中心,而是要通过对文章中的单词、短语和句子进行合理转换,重新组织文章的信息,再用合适的语言进行表述。这种写作形式能考查考生的阅读理解能力和对文章的大意进行归纳概括、重新构造、创新输出的能力。 一、题型特点要求考生进行概要写作的阅读材料原文词数一般为300词左右。文章体裁可以是记叙文、说明文或者议论文。写作要求考生在对原文阅读后根据其内容写出一篇约60词的内容概要。概要所用语句既要用词准确,结构合理,

3、找出文章要说明的对象、观点或建议议论文提取议论文的三要素(论点、论据、结论) 第三步:初写成文初写概要时,根据文章不同的文体可采取以下方法:记叙文先用一两句话串联人、时、地、事等要素,再用三到五个句子简要描述事情的经过和结果说明文找出要说明对象的现象、原因等或解决问题的措施、建议等议论文把议论文的三个要素(论点、论据、结论)进行合理地排序、整合和概括,使之语义上具有逻辑性和连贯性第四步:润色升级初写成文后,要对概要进行润色升级,使用高级词汇和高级句式代替平庸词汇和一般句式,使之锦上添花。第五步:复查定稿写好概要后,要从语法和语义角度进行通读。对语法错误和语义不连贯处进行修改润色。最后规范誊写在
