1、专题三 概要写作怎么考 概要写作主要包含阅读和写作两个过程，要求考生在阅读过程中，准确地把握文章大意，弄清不同体裁的文章内部之间的逻辑关系，提取文章要点和关键词或词组。英语概要写作的写作过程是建立在阅读原材料基础之上的，其写作过程要根据阅读时列出的提纲，清晰、准确、简洁地呈现原文的主旨。怎么学 考生除了平时要积极阅读，特别是一些议论文或说明文文体的300词左右的英语文章并练习概要写作之外，还需要储备一些常用的英语表达和英语句式。如开头句式常可以采用如下句式：This study/paper/article is aimed at/conveys the messagethat/mainly d
2、eals with the fact that/focuses on the topic that.等；可以用来表达结尾的句式有The result shows that/The writerfound that/It was concluded that/We can draw the conclusionthat/At last，we can know that.等。总之，考生需要平时积累一些常规的议论文或者说明文的丰富多彩的句式，以备不时之需。怎么写 在具体的写作过程中，尽管所给文章的文体不同，但一般的概要写作都有如下几个步骤：1.阅读。首先要通读全文，对文章的体裁和大意有所了解。阅读时
3、要快速地找到主题句，以便抓住中心，理解全文。有的文章主题句出现在开头或结尾，很容易找到。有的文章中没有主题句，考生要根据各段落的大意自己去总结。考生还需根据文章内容列出一个简单的提纲，以便在写作过程中不会遗漏要点，总结全面。2.写出初稿。在写作过程中，考生要注意词数要求，不要对文章进行复述或复写，而是要使用精炼的句子概括文章的要点，可以引用所给阅读材料中的重要词语，但不可过多，否则便失去了概要的意义；考生还需谨记：概要应该遵循所给阅读材料的逻辑顺序和结构，必须全面、清晰地表达所给阅读材料的信息，客观、准确地反映所给阅读材料的真实意图，不可随意添加或增减内容，也不可加入自己的观点。3.修正初稿。
4、初稿完成后，要将其与所给阅读材料核对一遍，看原材料中的要点是否在概要中都得到了体现，同时还需检查句子是否有错误，时态和语态的使用是否正确，标点、格式、大小写是否有误等。通过细致的修正与调整，力争使文章在各个方面都万无一失。下面以新考试说明中的样题为例，分析概要写作的题型特点。该题型要求考生基于所提供的一篇350词以内的短文写出一篇60词左右的内容概要。阅卷时将主要考虑以下内容：1.对原文要点的理解和呈现情况；2.应用语法结构和词汇的准确性；3.上下文的连贯性；4.对各要点表达的独立性情况。阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。Getting rid of dirt，in the
