  大學英語寫作技巧

英文寫作是大學生在英語考試中最薄弱的一環。很多同學花了大量的時間和精力,卻很難在這一項上有所突破。比方說,天天用一個小時來練習瀏覽,一段時間以後,瀏覽的速度和正確度都會有比較明顯的進步;然而,天天用一個小時來寫作,可能每次寫的作文質量不會有太大的差異。可以說,在寫作上的練習是一項投入產出比較低的工作。事實上,寫作也有一定的技能,這些技能不被人所留意,緣由在於:寫作的技能很大程度上不能從分析考試題目本身來得出,需要通過對大量英文文章的學習和總結得來,即工夫在題外。筆者在英語寫作中有幾點心得。

一、要善於模仿

對大多數學習英語的同學來講,英語的辭彙量、句式的積累還極其有限,遠不能到達用英文流暢表達,揮灑自若的地步。在這一階段進行創作是分歧時宜的,假如非要創造,只能寫出long time no see這樣的文字來。因此,模仿是這一階段的必經途徑。

談到模仿,一些同學的辦法就是背一堆範文,然後再到考場上進行一個剪切、粘貼的工作,效果可想而知。這不是真正意義上的模仿,充其量算是默寫課文。如何模仿呢?

首先,模仿的目標要明確。模仿的重點永久要放在一定的句式結構上,而非個別的辭彙。道理很簡單:一個詞,隨着文章內容的變換,可能就不能用了;而句式結構是放置四海而皆準的東西,適用的範圍廣,學來對寫作的幫助也就明顯。

其次,模仿的材料要隧道。像新概念英語這樣的教材就提供了很多原汁原味的英語表達法。盲目選擇文章學習,記一些不中不洋的句子,以謠傳訛,浪費時間。

最後,模仿要體現在實際動筆上。比如說,新概念第三冊有一個句式說:&for the *** reasonthat&表示某種現象的緣由是甚麼,用在大學英語考試中,我們就可以夠拿來解釋爲甚麼自行車在中國如此的流行,表達爲:The bicycleis very popular in China for the *** reasonthat&。然而,很多同學經常背了這些句式不用,一談到緣由依然是&because&,等等。

二、要靈活變通

在批改英語作文的進程中,經常能發現一些將中文僵硬地翻譯成英文的表達法。由於中英文之間的差異和辭彙量、表達法積累的不足,出現難於表達的情況是十分正常的。關鍵題目在於如何處理。有一句話叫做立志如山,行道如水,套用在這個題目上就很合適。寫英文作文,一定要有決心把它寫好,有信心把意思表達清楚,這是立志如山;但關鍵是碰到題目時要有個靈活的態度,能像流水一樣變通解決題目。

有個翻譯界的故事說:在某大型國際會議的接待會上,一道菜是用雞蛋做的。與會的客人問翻譯:What is it madeof?本來是非常簡單的一個題目,結果翻譯太緊張,忘了egg這個詞,但是他急中生智,回答:It is made of MissHens son.這裏,就是一個靈活變通的範例。繞道表達,是寫作中應當經常應用的一種方法。
