1、英语作文常用句型在英语写作中,有一些句型的搭配能力非常强,基本上可以用在各种话题的议论文中,如果能将这些句型掌握并熟练应用一定会使你的英文写作得心应手。想不想试一试呢?一、开头句型我们常说,良好的开端等于成功的一半。做事如此,作文也是如此。所以我们颇有必要在作文的开头花一番心思。在写议论文时,你通常以什么样的方式开头呢?最简单也最常用的可能就是开门见山法。也就是说直截了当地提出你对这个问题的观点,点出文章的中心思想。Ihas both advantages and disadvantages既有利又有弊。例如:1Obviously television has both advantages
2、and disadvantages2Living in a city has both advantages and disadvantages3Com pared with cars,bikes have their advantages and disadvantages举一反三:1Although computers bring people a lot of convenience,they have many disadvantages2has many advantagesFor example,However,just as every coin has two sides,ha
3、s its disadvantages(本例将利弊分开讲,转折过渡自然。just as every coin has two sides也很值得背诵。)IIplay(s)an important role part in在中扮演重要角色起重要作用。例如:1Computers play an important role in science and technology2Computers play a more and more important role in our life Computers play an increasingly important role in our st
4、udies3Education plays an important part in developing our mind4Addiction to alcohol and drugs play a role in homelessness举一反三:1Advertisement plays an informative role in our daily life2In the past,letters played a decisive role in long-distance communicationBut now ,telephone,email,fax have taken th
5、eir placeIIIWith the development of,随着的发展,例如:1With the developm ent of our econo- m y,m any Chinese fam ilies can afford a car2With the development of our economy and society,pollution is more and more serious3With the rapid development of science and technology,people can get a college degree by ta
6、king online-courses at home4With the current social and technological developments,employees with more knowledge and higher academic degrees are needed举一反三:1With the rapid increase of Chinas population,housing problem is becoming more and more serious 随着中国人口的急剧增加,住房问题越来越突出。2With more and more women
7、entering society,peoples attitude towards women is changing 随着越来越多的妇女走入社会,人们对妇女的态度也在改变。3With the deepening of Chinese reform and opening up,an increasing number of Chinesefamilies can afford a car 随着中国改革开放的深入,越来越多的中国家庭买得起车了。(“越来越多”除了常用的more and more外,还可以用an increasing number of, a growing number of,
8、a significant number of,a great number of等来表达。)本结构看似固定,实则富于变化,只要记住with有“随着”的意思,相信大家可以根据实际的需要造出更多的句子。我们已经看到,开门见山的开头使论文直切主题,直白明确地提出了论点。不过在讨论某些有争议性的问题时,就显得有欠缺,因为我们必须在文章的开头引出人们对要讨论的问题的不同看法,然后再表明自己的观点。下面就是专门针对争议性论文的一种句型。IVWhen it comes to,some people think believe that,others argue claim that opposite re
9、verse is trueThere is probably some truth in both arguments statements,but当说到,有些人认为,但另一些人则持相反的观点。这两种观点可能都有点道理,但。本结构先用when it comes to 引出话题,再用someothers 这个对立的结构引出了两种相反的观点,然后说There is some truth in both表明严谨公正的态度,最后用but很自然地引出了自己的论点。请看下面这个例子:TV,a good thing or bad thingWhen it comes to TV,some people be
10、lieve that it is extremely valuable,as it provides relaxation, entertainment and education Others argue that it is harmful for it begins to control our lives and deprives people of time to do other activitiesThere is probably some truth in both sidesBut we must realize that television itself is neit
11、her good or badIt is the uses to which it is put that determines its value to society二、结尾句型英语议论文多以简要总结全文或对所讨论的问题提出解决办法来结尾。总结全文时除常用到in one a word,generally speaking等外,没有固定模式。提出解决办法时却常使用下一句型。Vtake measures to do sth例如:1We should take measures to control pollution in order to save the world2Wed better
12、take effective measures to prevent students from cheating on exams3The government decided to take strong measures against drug abuse4Urgent measures should be taken to prevent terrorists from carrying out further attacks本文列举了英语作文中常用的几个句型,当然不是要大家写出千篇一律的文章来,而是希望起到一种抛砖引玉的作用,提醒大家在学习中注意多总结,以使自己的写作水平更上一层楼

Today, its certainly d
44、ifficult to think of any other single thing that represents the fast pace of modern society as powerfully as fast food. There are several reasons for its popularity. First, it is very convenient and saves a lot of time. The trends of modern society seem to all point to one ultimate goal saving time,
45、 and fast food well serves this purpose. You just go into a fast food restaurant, order your food, and your food is ready in no time. You can either eat it there or take it away. Second, its popularity is also attributed to the clean and comfortable environment of fast food restaurants, the excellen
46、t service, and the guaranteed quality of food. However, in terms of nutrition, fast food is far from satisfactory. It usually does not compose a balanced diet and is low in nutritional value. Thus, doctors suggest that people, especially children, eat fast food as little as possible. Although cookin

Some reserves are al

The one aspect of the English language that most of your correspondents seem to be unaware of is its widespread use as the international language of diplomacy, commerce and technology. It is the language of the United Nations and its agencies as well as of

91、ic is a pleasure trip in which food is taken to be eaten somewhere outdoors. It can either inelude or exclude barbecue. It can be on the beach, on the river bank or even in the woods. No matter where it takes place, it brings great joy.For a picnic to be well organized, you should first prepare the
92、necessary foods, including meat,bread, drinks and so on. Of course the picnic basket should also be taken into consideration. In addition, you should bring with you several disposable pieces of plastic tablecloth, which can serve as the table when spread out on the ground. If you plan to have a barb
93、ecue at the same time, you should also prepare a grill and fuel. Generally, the most desirable fuel is charcoal. It is a good fuel to use in the grill because it burns slowly and gives off great heat. You should also bring some slender pointed pieces of bamboo or iron so that small pieces of meat ca
94、n be strung together for easy cooking.The material preparation above is necessary, but it is not enough. Another important thing to think about is how to dispose available manpower for the activity properly. In other words, you should appoint different people to be the leaders in charge of different
95、 things so that when the picnic begins, they can have a good cooperation, thus making the activity smooth and pleasant.There is one more thing which you can never forget. You should always be aware of the need to protect the environment. To achieve this, you should avoid making a fire under the tree

The purpose of the survey was to discover the changes of the popularity of c
106、inema and television in this period.According to the graph, it can be seen that the trend was towards a decrease in the popularity of the cinema. There was a dramatic fall in the number of cinema admissions from 1957, when about 900 million people went, to 1959, when the attendance figure was roughl
107、y 550 million. From 1959 to 1963 the rate of decrease slowed down, the figure for the latter year being about 350 million. From this year on, there was a more gradual reduction in the popularity of the cinema, reaching a figure of about 125 million in 1974.Therefore, it can be concluded from the gra
108、ph that over the period 1957 to 1974 the cinema admissions became lower and lower while the television viewing licences became higher and higher owing to the advantages of watching television at home than going out to the cinema though it does not show directly in the graph. Good MannersGood manners
109、 are very important in the communication of daily life. Everyone likes a person with good manners. But what are good manners? How does one know what should do and what should not do when trying to be a good - mannered person?Well, here are some common examples. A person with good manners never laugh
110、s at a people in trouble. Instead, he (she) always tries to consult or offer help to the person. When he (she) takes a bus and sees an old man or a sick man, he (she) always gives his (her) seat to him. He doesnt interrupt other people when they are talking. He uses a handkerchief when he sneezes or
111、 coughs. He does not spite in public places.Ideas of what are good manners are not always the same in different regions. For example, people in Western countries usually kiss each other to show their greetings, whereas in China, kissing in public is something of unusual and sometimes be regarded as
112、impolite to somebody else. So it is important to know what is regarded as polite and impolite before you go to a region. But remember that it is always right to be kind and helpful to others.Read ExtensivelyReading plays a very important part in human life. Every day we get in touch with reading som
113、ething. We have a lot of things to read in our lives, such as books, magazines, newspapers, and even adver, tisement papers distributed everywhere. Through reading we can get a lot of useful information, for example, the latest news of our country and the world.Nevertheless, peoples interests in rea
114、ding vary considerably. Some people like reading novels. Some people like reading essays. Some other people may prefer reading magazines or newspapers.Here,what I want to emphasize is that no matter what you are interested in, you should read ektensively.I have my reasons for it. First, we are livin
115、g in a society full of information. We should make ourselves well- informed in order to keep up with the steps of our society. Reading extensively is an efficient method of acquiring information. Second, we need many kinds of skills in our lives. Reading extensively can help us learn those skills so
116、 that we can live more comfortably in the world. The more extensively you read, the more skills you can get. Third, we have a lot of decisions to make each day. Sometimes, we may feel difficult to make a correct decision. Reading extensively can help you understand the world you live in, and therefo
117、re, help you to make a clever decision in a difficult situation. Fourth, reading extensively can help you enlarge the range of your knowledge so that you can communicate with others more freely. You will find something to say when you talk with your friends no matter what topic you are talking about
118、.There are some other advantages of reading extensively. Because of the significance of extensive reading, you should begin to do so immediately. If you have determined to read extensively from now on, you are sure to be able to find a lot of books you are interested in, and the time to read them. Y
119、our life will become much more meaningful and substantial than before. Todays Luxuries Are Tomorrows NecessitiesBy luxury, we mean a pleasant and often expensive thing that is not necessary. From a historical point of view, things which Were a luxury when they first came into being all became necess
120、ities later. When the electric bulb was first invented in the U.S., it was such a luxury that only government bodies could afford to use it. Nowadays, however, it has reached every part of the world. It is the same case with telephone, TV, and a lot of others, which were all luxuries years ago.Anyth
121、ing, no matter how luxurious it is, will become a necessity when it is widely used. This is true of many of the present luxuries, including mobile phones, cars, computers and many other things. It is known to all that the purpose of the development of science is to make things easy for the mankind,
122、not for only a small number of people. Therefore, the first thing to do after a new invention occurs is to spread it so as to benefit as many people as possible. In the course of the spread, the luxury becomes decreasingly luxurious until in the end it becomes a necessity. This is an objective law,
123、nothing can be an exception.With the quick development of science and technology, the process for many things to become a necessity from a luxury will be greatly shortened. Anything that can be imagined will be invented and in no time becomes a necessity accessible to ordinary people.ModestyModesty
124、is one of the many qualities that cross - century young people should possess. It makes you foresee your imperfections. It gives you the impetus to go forward. Most important of all, it makes you accessible and creates favorable conditions for you in interpersonal contacts.However, many young people
125、 do not seem to realize the importance of modesty. Some of them just feel satisfied with a little success, without the slightest desire to make further progress. Others have too high an opinion of themselves, totally ignoring other people s suggestions and advice. Consequently, their immodesty often
126、 drives them up against the wall. Worst of all, immodesty takes many young people away from their colleagues and friends. Therefore they find fewer people with whom they can confide.For you to be modest, the first thing to do is to have a full understanding of your deficiencies. No matter who you ar
127、e and no matter how talented you are, you are unlikely to be all - powerful. In fact, you will always, in spite of your talents, find things about which you feel helpless. Besides, you should also admit other peoples strong points and try your best to learn from them. If you keep these two points in
128、 mind, you are on the right path to developing modesty.The Importance of Physical ExerciseEveryone hopes to live happily in the world. Physical exercise is indispensable to a happy life. There is a famous saying: Life lies on exercise. Although you will not necessarily die without regular physical e
129、xercises, they II certainly help you live longer and more healthily.Exercise is good for us to build our bodies. It helps co - ordinate the different parts of our bodies when we have sports. For example, we must try our best to co - ordinate the movements of the arms and legs when we play basketball
130、, or we wont be able to shoot the basket. Exercise also benefits our organs. It lets the heart beat faster than usual, and then helps enlarge the blood vessels to protect us from heart attacks.Exercise can also contribute to the development of our ability to response agilely. For instance, when you
131、play table- tennis, you must try to reflect as quickly as you can so that you may fight back at the right position at the fight moment.Exercise can also contribute to improving our mood. When you do exercise, you move a lot, and you have to be more active. It helps you become more optimistic.Exercis
132、e will fill your life with various contents and make it more colorful.Whats more, exercise will help you get rid of your inertia. If you keep doing exercise regularly, you will never be a lazy person. Therefore, exercise has great effect on ones character.In a word, exercise is helpful, important an
133、d absolutely necessary.Air-conditionersIn recent years, the air- conditioner has become one of the many indispensable electrical appliances for thousands upon thousands of families, especially those in the south, where the intense heat overwhelms the earth throughout the summer. The advantages of th
134、e air- conditioner are self - evident. Armed with the ability to refrigerate, the air- conditioner makes you feel refreshing and comfortable no matter how hot it is outside. Thus it guarantees the efficiency of your work and the quality of your rest. Without it there would be no knowing what would h
135、appen to you in the dog days. Moreover, it can also create a proper condition in summer for the operation of computers - the best friends of yours in the information age. Too high a temperature would make computers work improperly, causing much inconvenience for your daily life and work.With all the
136、 advantages the air- conditioner offers, its disadvantages are also obvious. To begin with, the installment of the air - conditioner always involves the hole making in the wall, which undoubtedly makes the wall less pleasing to the eye than if not. Besides, the air- conditioned environment may make
137、you more and more dependent on the air - conditioner, thus physically weakening your ability to cope with hot weather. Most important, the air - conditioned environment provides poor ventilation, and sometimes may even give rise to a strange kind of smell, which makes you feel dizzy and sick. Conseq
138、uently, you will be in no mood for enjoying the cool air produced by the air- conditioner.All things considered, I think its advantages outweigh its disadvantages. Actually, nothing in the world is perfect. It is unwise to make light of the favorable aspects of a thing on account of its unfavorable
139、aspects. The same is true of the attitude you take towards the air - conditioner.Reading- The Best Means to Acquire knowledgeKnowledge may be acquired through many ways. One way of getting knowledge is from traveling Another way is by conversation, especially one with a great man. A person may also
140、become knowledgeable through other ways such as listening to the radio or watching television. The best way to acquire knowledge, however, is through reading.Reading as a means of obtaining knowledge has a number of advantages over many other ways. To begin with, it is the most consistent way of get
141、ting knowledge. One can read regularly but few people can travel in the same way. Secondly, reading can ensure a thorough grasp of what you are interested in. This is hardly so when one is listening to the radio or watching TV. Finally, reading is the most flexible of all the ways to obtain knowledg
142、e. For example, one can always read for ten minutes before going to bed, but it is not always possible for him to converse with others at such a late hour.However, there exists one problem about reading. There are all kinds of Books in society. Some are good, while others are bad. Good books are ben
143、eficial to our .soul while bad ones are harmful to our mind. Therefore, it is of great irnportance for the reader to separate good plants from wild weeds. We should read good books and reject harmful ones.UnemploymentUnemployment is viewed as the number one problem in China now and the government ha
144、s launched a major attack on the problem.The steps the government has taken to deal with unemployment are as follows. Firstly, unemployment fund has been established to help the unemployed workers to support themselves. Secondly, the unemployed receive vocational training, which is expected to pay o
145、ff in the short term and give the unemployed an advantage in the job market. It is due to the lack of professional skills that these workers have lagged behind in the society. These training programs aim to equip the workers with some special skills, such as typing, sewing, and cooking. Finally, psy
146、chological advice is also available, since unemployment, apart from exerting financial pressures, brings enormous psychological discomfort. With the advice, the unemployed will learn how to adapt to the fierce competition in the technological age.With the joint efforts of the government and the soci
147、ety, we are optimistic that we can win the current war on unemployment.Value of KnowledgeIn the Information Age, public awareness of the value of knowledge critically affects the economic growth of a nation. The schematic diagram clearly shows how the value of knowledge evolved in China in the past
148、50 years.The schematic diagram mainly consists of three parts. From 1950 to 1966, the curve was roughly a straight line slightly above zero, showing that China was a poorly-educated nation then. In 1966, the curve drastically dropped below zero, moving down hopelessly in the next 11 years. This peri
149、odcoincided with the Culture Revolution. Our society went mad then, books were burned,schools were closed and all kinds of academic activities were banned. Knowledge inflicted its masters nothing but disasters. Life was a nightmare for Chinese intellectuals, including famous scholars as well as comm
150、on people who received higher education or whose profession had anything to do with knowledge. It was a time when ignorance was a virtue and knowledge was a crime. People tried desperately to be away from knowledge. As a result, China lagged farther behind the rapid progressing world. This was the d
151、arkest time in the history of New China. The curve returned to its original non-zero position around 1978 and moved up but slowly. From 1984 on, it has been shooting up. The open-up policy encourages people to study and to channel their knowledge to the market economy. Millions of Chinese are better
152、ing off by means of their knowledge and more Chinese enjoy the fruits of knowledge and say goodbye for good to poverty that haunted them for generations.As our world is rapidly advancing towards the Information Age, increasing number of people realize that knowledge is power and creativity is everyt
153、hing. Only when China becomes a better educated nation, can China be a great nation with international prestige.Annual Expenses on Learning EnglishIt is well known that English learning is fairly important to the student, but also it is a money hunter. The Graph of Annual Expenses aims to show us th
154、e fact that daily study has constituted a yearly large sum of money. That is, students are, day by day, challenging the knowledge from a sea of reference hooks, cassette tapes, CDs and even VCD.Buying books is always the biggest sum of a students expense, which has ranged from 10 to 60 RMB yuan duri
155、ng the latest decades. What s more evident, it can be found in 1999 that VCD is beneficial for students to better their English. Perhaps VCD may help students to improve listening comprehension. Therefore, they have spent 50 RMB yuan to buy VCD.No one can deny the fact that CDs have something to do
156、with learning English. In most situations, they are helpful to improve our understanding of foreign cultures, which are often considered difficult and tedious for students to learn form the textbooks. Compared with this, listening tapes is rather boring, so in 1999 a student spent less than 20 RMB y
157、uan to buy tapes.However, much money does not mean obtaining a better acquisition of a foreign language. In a long run, I am determined to make full use of available tools to master English, and try to make all the books, CDs, VCDs well - worth their expenses.Dietary Changes and Health CareAs is sho
158、wn in the graph, Chinas food distribution has taken great changes from 1960s to 1990s Acocrding to this statistics of cereals, vegetable, meat, and fruits, the number of those who eat rice, flour or vegetable has greatly decreased in the past four decades. In contrast of this the number of those who
159、 eat oil or meat has sharply increased. From such dietary changes, we can perceive the rapid improvement of our people s living standard.Why does this improvement occur? The direct reason is the fact that the Chinese people have attached much importance to their health care. Nationally, Chinas econo
160、mic growth is booming, and more people are getting richer. Individually, everyones consumption of food is increasingly varied. In particular, most of people are reluctant to eat much vegetable, but much meat and oil in their diets.In my view, the changes of Chinas dietary distribution seem to be bot
161、h positive and negative. The positive aspect is that China s economical growth has given rise to the higher level of dietary standard, with most of people living rich and happy. But the negative aspect is that, Im afraid, less eating vegetable will lead to poorer health, such as lacking vitamin nutr
162、ients in ones body. Therefore, we think it necessary for the Chinese to be aware of the balanced diets: Both vegetable and meat, which may gain us healthier bodies in the new century.考研英语格式作文例解(WTO篇)考研作文的最主要的特点就是以议论为主。其实,考试作文是最容易写的一种作文形式(这不包括英语专业考试的作文),它不要求写得很有文采,它最追求的就是要写得脉络清晰,富有条理。考试作文的指针就是:取悦阅卷者,
163、充分考虑阅卷者的心理。为了达到这个目的。建议考研作文采取格式作文的形式 第一步,就是要采取四段式来写作文,第一段阐明主旨,二、三段分别叙述,最后一段再进行总结。每一段的起始句很重要,建议第一段的起始句采取长句的形式,而后面的段落的起始句用一些特定的显示层次的词和词组来修饰也很重要。如“first,second,thirdfirst of all ,secondly,in the final analysis等等,这样能使段与段之间的联系更加紧密。对于进行详细阐述的二、三段,建议每一段举上一两个实例,以避免给阅卷者言之无物的印象。另外,二三段的每一段的结尾应该对该段的中心思想再进行一个简要的概括
164、,分别用一个句子即可,这样做的好处就是使阅卷者对你文章的条理性有一个更深刻的认识。最后一段照应第一段,再进行一个大意上的概括,当然,应该用另外一种语句,并在中心思想的基础上做一定的拓展。 以下是我套用这个格式理论写的一篇“加入世贸组织对中国的影响”,以供参考。 The impacts of Chinas entry into the world trade organization After years of bitter struggles and numerous negations, China, the economy of which is one of the worlds bi
165、ggest ,eventually became a formal member of the world trade organization-the largest organization that coordinates trade and business operations among its member states. As a matter of course, Chinas entry into the TWO brought with it challenges as well as opportunities. First of all, China is to en
166、joy the benefits that the organization provides us. Lower tariffs and tax rates and fewer trade barriers will facilitate our swift and efficient imports and exports and other trade activities. According to the trade clauses of the WTO, the European union shall cut down the tax rates it imposes on ou
167、r exported textile products, thus availing the arts-and-crafts companies in our country to extract more profits from the business. In a sense ,the WTO means opportunity, and it sets the stage for our business to cut a brilliant figure in the international economic circles. Secondly, Chinas national
168、economy is set to be faced with fierce competition from the outside world. WTO pursues a relatively equal and free business environment for all its members, which poses a major challenge for our economy. Such monopolous business sectors used to enjoy protections from governments of all levels as tel
169、ecommunications and banking will find themselves no longer be in a safe box. They have to adjust or replace their current operative and marketing strategies to cope with the outdooors shrewd and talented completers, or they will suffer big losses and tough time is awaiting them. We should brace for
170、the challenges so as to take the initiative when competition is close at hand. In the final analysis, abundant opportunities and stiff challenges goes hand in hand with each other along with Chinas entry in the WTO. We should make good use of the chances and meanwhile suitably deal with the outside competition, All our efforts are to upgrade our business scales and get more integrated into the international business community.
