2015考研英语倒计时：攻克主题句作文的四步骤

  主题句作文也叫做段首句作文，就是给出每一段的第一句话——往往是表达该段中心思想的主题句，然后考生加以扩展发展成段，最后成篇。这种属于控制性或指导性的作文，考生需要严格遵循题目及各段首句展开思路，完成文章。文都考研频道老师整理了主题句作文的写作步骤，如下：

 

 

  1.准确理解文章标题

 

 

  标题是文章主题的高度概括，限定了写作范围，考生的写作应以此展开。只有准确理解文章标题，写作时才不会跑题，并把握文章的体裁。

 

 

  2.找准关键词，确定段落内容

 

 

  段首句提供了该段的中心思想，但是为了把握段落扩展的范围和方向，保持和主题的一致性，考生一定要找出关键词(key words)——关键词是段落和文章的核心，文章是否切题，段落是否环环相扣，都与确定关键词有关。

 

 

  3.确定段落的发展方向

 

 

  这一步就是要考虑文章的写作方法，突出主题。要根据不同的段首句选择不同的段落发展方法。主要方法有例证法、因果法、列举法、比较法和对照法。这些方法的灵活运用可以使文章脉络清晰，逻辑性强。

 

 

  4.搞清段落与文章之间的关系

 

 

  给出的段首句实际上是文章的大体结构和内容。因此，应通过对标题和关键词的分析来统筹各段的写作内容，避免内容的重复。各段所选择的扩充材料也应具有代表性，能够充分证明、解释主题句的内涵。

  Help Children to Be Independent

 

 

  Today in China, many families have only one child. So the children usually doted upon by all family members. Gradually some of them get used to depending on their parents and lack the ability to solve problems independently.

 

 

  There are some ways to help children to be independent. Firstly, the child should have a chance to see the world around him. He must understand that there’re various competitions in this world, and everyone can find his right position in the society only by individual efforts. Secondly, the parents should give the child enough help to make him feel comfortable. Its impossible to ask a child not to depend on parents at once. A child needs help from the beginning. Without any help, the child may lose his faith. Thirdly, parents should let his child make decisions, which can temper his ability to deal with problems. A child should be praised when he is successful or when he fails.

 

 

  To be independent is good for the children, because no parents can accompany the children for the whole life. It is the child himself who is responsible for her own fate. Only an independent person can live and succeed in this world.

 

 

  英语老师认为短文写作中，考生应注意文章是否切题，论据是否充分;在展开过程中应注意各段内容是否围绕主题句展开，有无与主题无关的句子内容;句子之间、段落之间的连接要自然，逻辑关系要清晰;句子结构要保持完整，人称、时态、动词变化等要保持一致，单词拼写、大小写、标点要无误。这样才能写出一篇令人满意的文章。
