1、读写任务一、考点解读读写任务是广东省高考英语的新题型，它要求考生阅读一篇短文，然后完成两项任务：使用约30个词概括要点；使用约120个词写一篇符合要求的短文。这一题型旨在考查学生“用英语获取信息、处理信息、传达信息的能力，分析问题、解决问题的能力以及用英语进行表达的能力”，即“综合语言运用能力”，体现了新课程标准改革在广东考试改革中的力度。广东高考英语读写任务考查内容广东高考英语读写任务命题的body部分不外乎两个题材，一是议论文，二是夹叙夹议的文章。这样的命题，不但着重考查考生的思维能力，更考查对语篇的思维深度，同时考查现在中学生的认知能力。高中学生已走近成人阶段，具备了一定的知识储备和社会
2、经验，认知能力已经达到了相对较高的水平。这样的命题体现了新课标“以人为本”、“为学生的终生发展奠定基础”的精神，反映了测试内容与社会进步、学生经验的联系。既体现了科学和人文素养，也发掘了素质教育的因素，对学生有很好的教育意义。二、命题分析三、应试点睛2015年考生需要在素材上有所准备。脑海中应至少积累两到三个自己或他人的、具有真情实感且表达准确无误的记叙小段落如描写助人为乐的、描写亲情可贵的、描写诚实真挚的或描写坏人坏事的记叙小段落。积累了这些素材以后，在考场中可以灵活运用。读写任务在广东高考英语试卷中占据很大比重，而又是主观化评判很高的部分。因此，考生应该努力通过作文亮点的创设，给阅卷老师留
3、下良好的主观印象。在写作中，应注意以下问题。1. 合理使用非谓语动词、定语从句、状语从句、名词性从句、强调句、倒装句、含有with复合结构的句子以及it开头的句型。这些句型出现在文章各段首，让文章锦上添花。It is wildly believed/ thought/ accepted that knowledge is power.Only in this way/ by doing that can /will we do something .2. 适当用被动代替主动，这样能更客观地反映事实。如用“Attention should be paid to.”来结尾会比“We should
4、pay attention to.”更好。3. 在正反阐释文中有一句话重复率非常高：“Some people think.while others think.”，这种表达很容易让你的作文在众多的考卷中跳出来，夺人眼球。4. 能用短语不用单词。短语的使用也是彰显写作功力的一种极佳方法。它的优势：a.增加文章亮点；b.改变自己写文章总是寥寥数语凑不够词数的痛苦记忆。如：用“Your words are not enough to bear out your innocence.”来代替“Your words are not enough to prove your innocence.”会更好一
5、些。5. 多用词义具体的实词，少用虚词，也是一个制造亮点的好方法。如：表示一个人“好”可以使用generous, humorous, interesting, smart, gentle, warmhearted, hospitable等具体化的词汇。6. 在议论文写作中，适当运用谚语，也是给文章增色的手段之一，如：As a popular saying goes, “Every coin has two sides.”As is known to all, “No pains, no gains.”四、题型探究 探究点一读写任务的概括新课程标准的三个关键词是问题、信息、表达。以问题为中心，
6、输入信息， 表达思想。这个思想折射到读写任务的题目设置上， 文章阅读是输入信息， 写作的题目是我们要解决的问题， 表达就是我们写出来的文章。阅读过后写出来，就是考查我们处理信息的能力。概括包括两个部分：主题句和支撑句。 前者统摄后者，主题句是关键。2.概括的标准：抛弃次要， 瞄准写作目的。好的概括具有以下一些特点：主题句统摄， 逻辑性强， 信息浓度高， 意义抽象程度高等。读写任务的阅读材料有多种文体，要针不同文体概括主题，提炼支撑句，力求简洁明了、一目了然。【举例说明】 记叙文的概括阅读下面的短文， 然后用约30个词概括要点。The Best GiftDella and Jim broke a
7、way from their families to get married.Now they lived in a small attic of a cold and old building.They were now digesting the hardship of life.The only joy was their sweet love for each other.The handsome husband had to be burdened with a familythough he was young.The beautiful wife took care of the
8、 shabby house with the few coins she saved.Christmas was coming.They were thinking of a good gift for each other.Della wore a waterfall of black hair, but her comb was broken.Jim had a gold watch with an old chain, which was passed from his old grandfather.The big day finally came.On arriving home,
9、Jim was surprised to find Dellas long hair cut short.But Della was also surprised to find Jims gold watch gone.She had sold her hair to buy a gold watch chain for him! He had sold his gold watch to buy an expensive comb for her!The gifts were now useless.But in fact they got the best gifts.我们首先分析一下学
10、生的样本， 看看存在什么问题， 要如何改进。【样本1】This passage tells us a story about a couple.They sold the most valuable thing for themselves to buy a gifts for each other.Even though the gifts became useless, they (had) received the best gift(s) indeed.【样本2】This story tells us that a husband Jim and a wife Della love e
11、ach other.On Christmas, they send the best gifts to each other, but each lose their dear thing.The gifts are useless.【评论点拨】 两个样本都表达了一些关键的词语(Della, Jim, love, gift等), 但是从“主题句统摄支撑句”的要求来看， 与记叙文的文体目的配合不够完美。记叙文要求故事的“教化”意义， 它的背后隐藏着“这个故事教育我们什么”的目的， 即是“故事情节主题”的深层结构。我们写概括的时候， 主题句最好瞄准故事的深层写作目的， 然后支撑句写故事的大意。样本
12、1的主题句没有样本2好。样本1比较空洞， 读者看不出故事的主题， 且有不少的语法错误；样本2没有点明礼物，说到了两个人之间的“love”。 但是样本1后面的支撑句Even though the gifts became useless, they (had) received the best gift(s) indeed.说明了故事的情节和目的， 又比样本2好。因此， 两个样本差不多， 可以评34分(满分5分)。探究点二记叙文表达的繁与简记叙文的叙事结构在于多个“进展评议”推进故事的情节发展。除了这个以外， 表达的繁与简也是一个非常重要的问题。这里的繁与简有两重意思：第一是内容描写的繁与简，
13、 就是文字的多少；第二是句子结构的繁与简， 就是句子结构的复杂程度。繁与简都是必要的写作手法， 它们的运用取决于写作的目的。写作时， 句子结构的繁与简取决于两个因素：第一是同学们自己的语言水平。 语言水平比较低的时候， 复杂的句子意思表达往往不够清晰， 我们建议用简单的句子结构提高语法的准确率。第二是写作目的。 在某种程度上，它要求复杂或者简单的句子结构与之相对应。1意思清晰是大前提我们首先要清楚一个概念：使用复杂结构和“大词”并不等于语言“高级”， 与语言环境相互配合的语言结构和词语才是真正的高级。例如：凯撒大帝征服高卢时说：I came. I saw. I conquered.句子简短有力
14、， 决心坚定。英国首相丘吉尔也说， 短词比大词更加有表现力， 大词小用是很可笑的， 例如：Tom is a 5yearold wise and sagacious boy.试问， 一个5岁大的小孩怎么能够像圣人那样“睿智”(sagacious)呢？ 如果我们盲目地使用复杂结构， 不一定就有好的效果， 结构复杂度把握不好， 会损害意思的清晰度。例如： 下面这段话含有76个单词，6个从句的句子到底是什么意思？In my opinion, I will say that we here in China today in the beginning of the 21st century often
15、 place a high value on the successful achievement of an education on the college level and it seems to me that the reason why_we believe this is that_college is the place where a young man or woman is first helped to begin to grasp and understand what the true meaning of life really is. 倒不如简单地说成：The
16、 Chinese people now value college education because it helps a student to understand the meaning of life.所以， 句子复杂程度要服务于意思的清晰度。2句子结构复杂度服务于写作目的下面的文章用简单句比较多， 20个句子中只有3个复合句， 复杂度为15%。 【样本1】 简单句多I will never forget that special day I spent with my mother.Mother could only wear soft shoes after the operati
17、on.But her old ones were worn out.It was Mothers Day.I bought my mother a pair of sport shoes with the money saved.“Mum, I am back.” But I received no answer.It was quite unusual.I stepped into mothers room, only to find her in bed.She was finally ill with heavy work, unable to hear me in her sweet
18、dream.I put aside the box and tiptoed into the kitchen.After some time, I put hot porridge beside her bed.Mothers gray hairs spread on the pillow and shone in the sunshine from the window.I began to comb her hair.I felt sour in my throat.Suddenly mother woke up and found what I was doing.精心雕琢的简单句更符合
19、叙述的过程， 周围的句子都是简单句， 形成一致的干脆叙事风格。【样本2】 复合句多“Mum，I am back.”But after I received no answer, which was quite unusual, I stepped into mothers room, only to find her in bed, who was finally ill with heavy work, unable to hear me in her sweet dream.Putting aside the box, I tiptoed into the kitchen, from wh
20、ich I took hot porridge beside her bed after some time.Mothers gray hairs spread on the pillow and shone in the sunshine from the window.When I was combing her hair, I felt sour in my throat.As soon as mother woke up, she at once found what I was doing.比较不难发现句子结构复杂了， 但是干脆利落的叙事风格却消失了。 探究点三夹叙夹议文的写作夹叙夹
21、议的写作谁都会写， 但是要写好却不容易。文章内容要素包括who, what, when, where, how。如果我们对叙事的结构进行分析， 可以发现夹叙夹议文写作的具体过程是：点题(abstract), 指向(orientation), 进展 (action)，评议(evaluation), 结果(result)和回应(coda)。为了解决以上的问题， 下面向同学们介绍一种夹叙夹议文的创作方法。具体的叙述过程可以体现在下面“武松打虎”的故事里。 【欣赏评论】从上述故事来看， 采用的是第三人称Wu Song。作者没有出场， 是隐藏的， 没有出现在文章中， 但是他(她)更像一位无所不知的旁观者
22、， 等待适当的时机向读者“抛售”他(她)隐藏的情感与价值观念(例如：What a great hero Wu was！强烈暗示了对武松的褒扬， 读者的情感不自觉地被引导到某个目标), 这些隐藏的情感与价值观念就是写作的动机， 也就是写的作目的。 探究点四议论文的写作方法议论文的写作目的是企图劝说读者接受作者的观点或者立场，因此文章必须具有很强的说服力。雄辩的逻辑和例子都可以增强说服力。因此， 议论文的内容必须是精心挑选的， 必须是能够说明问题的， 必须是在论点的统领之下的。议论文有不同的形式， 例如概念讨论型、观点对立型、观点论证型、现象讨论型、问题解决型等。无论议论文是什么形式， 它必须具有
23、论点、论据和论证。论点是作者试图让读者接受的观点。论据是用以证明论点成立的证据。论证是论据证明论点的过程， 包括材料的选择、安排、详略、比例，逻辑关系的发展等。 【举例说明】【写作内容】 (阅读材料略)1概括短文的内容要点， 该部分的词数大约30；2就“好学生的标准”这个主题发表你的看法， 至少包括以下的内容要点， 该部分的词数大约120：(1)叙述你班上一位好学生(假设叫John)是如何度过一天的；(2)你认为好学生应该具有什么素质？【评论点拨】 这是一篇夹叙夹议的文章， 第一个问题“叙述你班上一位好学生(假设叫John)是如何度过一天的”，是记叙文体；第二个问题“你认为好学生应该具有什么素
24、质？”是说明议论文体。 “记叙说明议论”是这篇文章的文体总特征。 现在， 我们来看看学生样本：What is a good student?Students have different opinions on a good student.Nowadays, some students consider entering a good university is the destination of study.Others think developing personal interests and rewarding specialties are important.John is
25、one of the best students in my class.He comes_to_school_so_early that he can ask his classmates what he doesnt know.When he is having a class, he concentrates_on it, and find the problem to_ask_teacher after class.When he is in school, he never_wastes_time to do others.He does the same every day.

32、cult personal relationship.探究点五说明文与议论文的组合说明与议论都是非常重要的写作方法， 但是说明文与议论文还是有比较大的差异。它们有相似的地方， 例如都有说理的部分， 但角度不尽相同。 说明文与议论文组合属于跨文体， 难度主要在于审题， 我们从题目的问题中比较难断定使用哪种文体。【举例说明】【写作内容】 (阅读材料略)你要参加一场英语演讲比赛， 主题是“知识就是力量吗”。 在参赛之前， 你要查阅相关资料， 并准备你的演讲发言。1概括短文的内容要点， 该部分的词数大约30；2就“知识就是力量吗”这个主题发表你的看法， 至少包括以下的内容要点， 该部分的词数大约120
33、：(1)你身边的人怎样看待知识的地位？(2)用你的经历说明知识的重要性。(3)你同意“知识就是力量”这一说法吗？ 【评论点拨】1对文体的分析(1)“你身边的人怎样看待知识的地位？”身边的人怎么想并不是我们主观判断的， 作者的责任只不过是客观地描述现存的状态。(2)用你的经历说明知识的重要性。(3)你同意“知识就是力量”这一说法吗？2文体的组合现在我们知道文章的三个问题在文体上的推进是“说明说明议论”。3对比例关系的分析文章的比例就像是人的身材， 高低长短直接影响着审美。文章的组合是“说明说明议论”， 最为保险的比例是111。 【学生样本1】My friends and relatives th
