     2008年6月21日的四級(jí)考試如期而至。作為新四級(jí)寫(xiě)作的第五次實(shí)踐，本次的作文考試帶給我們的依舊是熟悉的老題型，而且是再熟悉不過(guò)的、古老的題型?，F(xiàn)在我們就一起來(lái)分析一下這次新四級(jí)作文。
     如前所述，本次考試，從題型上講，是歷次作文中比較簡(jiǎn)單的一種，即對(duì)于某種社會(huì)問(wèn)題，出現(xiàn)兩種對(duì)立觀點(diǎn)，后要闡述自己的觀點(diǎn)。這種題型自05年6月之后，就因其自身的古老性，讓位于其他的題型，而今它再次活躍于四級(jí)作文的舞臺(tái)—— 1. 娛樂(lè)活動(dòng)多種多樣 2.娛樂(lè)活動(dòng)可能使人們受益，也可能有危害性 3.作為大學(xué)生我的看法
     對(duì)于此種作文，結(jié)構(gòu)上還是那種既經(jīng)典又保守的三段式；第一段是傳統(tǒng)的現(xiàn)象描述，因?yàn)閵蕵?lè)形式的多樣化是一個(gè)encouraging 的趨勢(shì)，所以我們可以用millions of ，have mushroomed all over china這樣的表達(dá)，第一段的第二三句則是對(duì)比選擇性的經(jīng)典開(kāi)篇方式：it is commonly accepted that the recreational activities are as vital as air and water.in contrast,others maintain that these activities' harmfulness is potential.令兩邊的爭(zhēng)論初見(jiàn)端倪。
     第二段，先闡釋正面的觀點(diǎn)。還是用固有的形式：先說(shuō)純粹的觀點(diǎn)。Those whose hold the first opinion claim that recreational activities can help us to not only build our body and mind but also improve our communication and understanding with friends . 然后用1到2條理由去支持它because most of these activities are done with others.這其中要注意說(shuō)話人所站的立場(chǎng)，同時(shí)更要注意理由與理由之間的邏輯關(guān)系，從而添加表示層次關(guān)系的詞語(yǔ)。緊接著我們要大膽地*此前的所有的論斷，用轉(zhuǎn)折性的詞語(yǔ)引出第二種人的心態(tài)，即負(fù)面的觀點(diǎn)。這一段我們同樣恪守前文的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)，即純粹的觀點(diǎn)，同時(shí)附以1到2條理由作為理論支持 conversely speaking,some others still believe that we may fail to concentrate our duties such as studying and working if we pay time on the recreational activities ,which in turn may lead to further consequences.
     后一段，輪到自己表態(tài)了,也是我在課上反復(fù)強(qiáng)調(diào)過(guò)的觀點(diǎn)總結(jié)段。在這里，老師提醒各位考生，一，不要過(guò)于單純，即自己內(nèi)心里贊同什么就以什么強(qiáng)調(diào)去評(píng)判，而要選取一個(gè)自己比較容易論述的角度去寫(xiě)；二，不要過(guò)于直白，不要用鏗鏘的態(tài)度口誅筆伐，這樣于人于己都無(wú)益，相反要站在中庸的立場(chǎng)上，客觀地評(píng)價(jià)之：In a word,taking into account of all these factors,we may reach the conclusion that recreational activities should be done within a certain limit.only in this way,can we keep a proper balance between recreation and studying or working life.
     從考試內(nèi)容上看，本次作文雖然沒(méi)有貼近校園生活，但是整體上卻沒(méi)有遠(yuǎn)離“社會(huì)熱點(diǎn)問(wèn)題”這一大方向。本次作文在題型上是我們熟悉的那種古老的雙刃劍
     說(shuō)到平時(shí)寫(xiě)作的鍛煉，在這里，筆者將后就這個(gè)問(wèn)題談一談?？忌苍S能夠看出，所有的作文考試似乎看上去都不難，但為何我們卻遲遲不敢下筆呢？原因就在于我們平時(shí)的鍛煉比較少。在此筆者就如何在日常英語(yǔ)學(xué)習(xí)中提高寫(xiě)作實(shí)力給廣大考生五項(xiàng)建議：
     1，英語(yǔ)基本功和綜合能力的長(zhǎng)期積累。
    2，英語(yǔ)實(shí)用文體寫(xiě)作水平的提高。
    3，各種文體的有代表性的句型結(jié)構(gòu)的記憶。
    4，各種題材內(nèi)容的廣泛閱讀涉獵。
    5，各種寫(xiě)作方法的交互使用和整合運(yùn)用等。同時(shí)在考場(chǎng)上如果運(yùn)用到其中的一些典型性句型；并且注意到每個(gè)段落都有一個(gè)明確的核心意思(即主題句)；注意到整個(gè)篇章較為有邏輯；后就是不要在文章中犯“低級(jí)”錯(cuò)誤，即簡(jiǎn)單的語(yǔ)法錯(cuò)誤。這樣的話，這篇文章的分?jǐn)?shù)可以穩(wěn)定在優(yōu)秀等級(jí)。
