解题实战练习:Directions:The following paragraphs are given in a wrong order.

We’re in a budget crunch and I have absolutely no financial rewards at my disposal. In fact, we’ll probably have to lay some people off in the near future. It’s hard for me to make the job interesting and challenging because it isn’t —it’s boring, routine paperwork, and there isn’t much you can do about it.“Finally, I can’t say to them that their promotions will hinge on the excellence of their paperwork. First of all, they know it’s not true. If their performance is adequate, most are more likely to get promoted just by staying on the force a certain number of years than for some specificoutstanding act. Second, they were trained to do the job they do out in the streets, not to fill out forms. All through their career it is the arrests and interventions that get noticed.[C] “I’ve got a real problem with my officers. They come on the force as young, inexperienced men, and we send them out on the street, either in cars or on a beat. They seem to like the contact they have with the public, the action involved in crime prevention, and the apprehension of criminals. They also like helping people out at fires, accidents, and other emergencies.[D] “Some people have suggested a number of things like using conviction records as a performance criterion. However, we know that’s not fair — too many other things are involved. Bad paperwork increases the chance that you lose in court, but good paperwork doesn’t necessarily mean you’ll win. We tried setting up team competitions based on the excellence of the reports, but the guys caught on to that pretty quickly. No one was getting any type of reward for winning the competition, and they figured why should they labor when there was no payoff.[E] “The problem occurs when they get back to the station. They hate to do the paperwork, and because they dislike it, the job is frequently put off or done inadequately. This lack of attention hurts us later on when we get to court. We need clear, factual reports. They must be highly detailed and unambiguous. As soon as one part of a report is shown to be inadequate or incorrect, the rest of the report is suspect. Poor reporting probably causes us to lose more cases than any other factor.[F] “So I just don’t know what to do. I’ve been groping in the dark in a number of years. And I hope that this seminar will shed some light on this problem of mine and help me out in my future work.”[G] A large metropolitan city government was putting on a number of seminars for administrators, managers and/or executives of various departments throughout the city. At one of these sessions the topic to be discussed was motivation -- how we can get public servants motivated to do a good job. The difficulty of a police captain became the central focus of the discussion.Order:G--41--42--43--44--45--F步骤一、理解给定的段落确定文章的文体与结构。

英语作文格式段落设置的
英语作文格式段落设置的English Answer:Paragraph Structure.In academic writing, paragraphs serve as building blocks that develop and support the central argument of a paper. Effective paragraph structuring adheres to specific guidelines that ensure coherence, unity, and progression of ideas.1. Topic Sentence: Each paragraph begins with a topic sentence that clearly states the main idea to be discussed within the paragraph. This sentence encapsulates the specific focus of the paragraph and serves as a roadmap for the reader.2. Supporting Sentences: Following the topic sentence, multiple supporting sentences provide evidence, examples, or explanations to elaborate on the main idea. Thesesentences should directly relate to the topic sentence and develop its content in a logical and organized manner.3. Transitions: Transitions connect paragraphs and ensure a smooth flow of ideas. They can be signal words (e.g., "moreover," "however," "in addition") or connecting phrases (e.g., "despite this fact," "as a result") that indicate the relationship between paragraphs.4. Concluding Sentence: Often, a concluding sentence provides a brief summary of the paragraph's main point and transitions to the next paragraph. It may reiterate the topic sentence or offer a concluding thought that ties together the ideas presented in the paragraph.Paragraph Length.Paragraph length varies depending on the complexity of the topic and the type of writing. However, academic writing typically avoids excessively short or long paragraphs. Ideally, paragraphs should be long enough to adequately develop the main idea without overwhelming thereader with too much information.Formatting.Paragraphs are separated by a single blank line in academic writing. They should be indented on the first line to visually distinguish them from the rest of the text.Additional Tips.Ensure unity by keeping all sentences within a paragraph focused on the same main idea.Avoid redundancy by not repeating the same information in multiple sentences.Use a variety of sentence structures and sentence lengths to enhance readability.Proofread carefully to ensure coherence and clarity throughout the paragraph.Chinese Answer:段落结构。

Ways of developing a paragraph如何生成段落
Ways of developing a paragraph Essays develop as a series of interrelated paragraphs, all supporting a single main idea usually expressed in a thesis sentence. The way paragraphs develop is often established by a topic sentence.As the basic unit of an essay, a paragraph is a group of related sentences that develop one main idea. The main idea is often expressed in a topic sentence—often appearing at the beginning of the paragraph.e.g.1. In the English Reading Week, one of my classmates recommended a quote to us, which goes like this; "Your future depends on many things, but mostly on you.” I can't agree more with this view. It's true that our future is determined by many things, such as opportunities and help from others, but our own attitude, determination, and hard work play a more important role. In other words, we are the master of our own future.2. Take Abraham Lincoln, for example. He was born in a poor family, and only received a limited education in his childhood. Yet through hispainstaking efforts, he changed not only his own fate but also the 'history of America. Even to this day. Lincoln is regarded as one of the most inspiring figures in the world. Therefore, I firmly believe that our future is in our own hands.The ideas in paragraphs are developed in many different ways.1. Time and processThe easiest and clearest way to arrange the narration of events or explanations of processes is to follow time order or process sequence.Last Thursday, we had a class meeting to discuss where to go for our spring outing. We came up with several choices such as going boating, climbing a mountain, and going to an amusement park. Finally, we decided to go mountain climbing.The next day, we set off early in the morning. While climbing the mountain, we enjoyed the warm sunshine and a beautiful view. However, when reached the top, we were shocked to see litter here and there, such as bottles and banana peels. Then we started to pick up the litter. Afterwards, we put the rubbish into the nearby recycling bin and non-recycling bin respectively.We were tired but happy.(2008北京)I am writing to you for the mobile phone of Dephone-S250 I bought on 20th Apr.2008 at Tele Mall in Wuhan, P.R.China. Ten days after that, it didn't ring and send short messages. Then I took it to the seller, but was told that the model had been sold out and I had to wait at least three months for a new one. Later I went to the repairman. He said since it was a new model in China, it was impossible to fix it without the right spare parts. I was so desperate on hearing that. How can I wait that long? Therefore, I require that you send me a new one of the same model withina month.(2008湖北)2. spaceThe details in descriptions are often arranged according to their space order or location, usually from a single perspective. Details may be arranged in the order from right to left, near to far, up to down, north to south, side to side, center to side, and so on. These words are called visual space reference.e.g.We're so glad you're coming to join us on Sunday. Here is how you can find us. We'll have our picnic in the People's Park.You know where that is, don't you? After you enter the park bythe main gate, walk straight on till you come to a stream. Cross the stream and turn right. After walking for a while you'll come to a hill. Walk around to the other side of the hill. There you'll see a lake. We'll have our picnic there in the small woods by the lake. I'm sure you'll have no trouble finding us. Do come!(1994)I was so pleased to hear from you and am writing to tell you something about my school.You are right.Quite a few changes have taken place. On one side of the road there is a new classroom building. On the other side,where the playground used to be now stands another new building一our library. In it there are all kinds of books,newspapers and magazines. The playground is now in front of t he school.We have also planted a lot of trees in and a round the school. I hope you come and see for yourself some day.(1999)3. ExemplificationIn actual practice, examples may be single words, phrases, anecdotes, or extended anecdotes form a paragraph to a whole essay in length. We can use examples from our general knowledge, from reading, andfrom personal experience.e.g.1. In the English Reading Week, one of my classmates recommended a quote to us, which goes like this; "Your future depends on many things, but mostly on you.” I can't agree more with this view. It's true that our future is determined by many things, such as opportunities and help from others, but our own attitude, determination, and hard work play a more important role. In other words, we are the master of our own future.2. Take Abraham Lincoln, for example. He was born in a poor family, and only received a limited education in his childhood. Yet through his painstaking efforts, he changed not only his own fate but also the 'history of America. Even to this day. Lincoln is regarded as one of the most inspiring figures in the world. Therefore, I firmly believe that our future is in our own hands.4. Classification, definition, comparisonand contrast, cause and effect etc.。

Developing paragraphsT ime:I got on the train at four minutes to ten near to noon and placed my suitcase under my seat . A fter all the things were put in order, I drank some water and ate pieces of cookies for my lunch. A nd then, time for rest. While the noodles of my neighbor smelled so good that it appealed me out of dreams, it was completely dark outside. In case of losing things while a short leaving, so I eat nothing and just lift the bottle again for little water. Again, I slept to bring up energy. So long, so quite the night was. T he clock alarmed me to prepare for got off train, it was 3 o’clock in the next morning.P rocess: W e had a memorable picnic last F riday along the Yangtze River. Would you mind going somewhere or eating something you do not like? I n case of this, we first did a survey for the dishes and place we all wanted. And then we went to the early market to get everything ready. When everyone arrived there on time, the next step was to make all the dishes clean and well-cut for cooking. And then started fire, each group prepare d one dishes. While one dishes was well done, different from we were at home, there is no plate needed. As you can see, we all gather ed together to finish it and only in this way could we experience what a real picnic like.Space:A ll the things I want most this year is to design a room for myself. The room must own such view: when you get in, what flee to your eyes is an armchair between the door and a bookcase. And the bookcase has two sides when one is faced directly to the door, the other side to the bed. You cannot see the whole character of the room because of the bookcase. But when you turn to the other side of it, you will find a desk across the window which is on the left of the bed. A closet stands at the same line of the desk. There is never something else except a blanket place at the floor for exercise or rest. At last, you will be glad to find there are some wonderful picture hangs on the wall. Small but well-prepared, that is my room.Example:My father is the forever hero in my heart.Though a farmer he is, he is gentle and smart. My father always wears a warm heart to help others and spare s no effort. He never goes to high school which do not harm to his well-known and full experience. He can control himself quite well and keep s clam even when he drinks. And when there are big events falling down, he won’t cry for help before he can handle them, he just smiles and does it well immediately. Yet, he loves life and enjoys it in a way that also inspires people around him smil ing to live a better life.Comparison & C ontrast:I love both spring and autumn. There is neither hot nor cold threat us to escape from study ing or working in these two seasons. Spring and autumn are so short in here that we cherish them as a golden apple. To some content, spring is a season full of life and energy, while autumn is lonely and poor. We can see sunflowers and hear singing birds in the spring, but feel tears and hear far cry from our inner world. In a way, it means we pick up news things from the world in spring and then find ourselves in autumn. That maybe the way we live in whole year even the whole life.Cause & E ffect: people now spend more time reading novels. Reading novels can not only get happiness from essays, but also save time. People live with a high speed to get used to the new high developed world. Time is life more than money this moment because of high technology. As the information spreads fast and effective, we do not need to know or remember all the things. Once we have difficult understanding, we can search in the internet. And instead of reading classical, we can play games in a more modern way to relax.Classification: I appreciat e living with 3 kinds of person so much. The first kind is people with good quality. I love their kind, and I admire their gentle when they go on with others. When talk to them, you will realize how beautiful the life is and what can you do to make the world more harmony. The second group is people who are smart and can always deal with things in an excellent way. Spending time with them, you will be strong er and more helpful in some way. The last one is people wears beauty. Whenever you look at them, you can feel nothing but happy and the only thing you want to do is likely to smile. Beautiful ones often give us a clean and relax habitat.。

解题步骤分析: Directions:You are going to read a list of headings and a text about plagiarism in the academic community. Choose the most suitable heading from the list A-F for each numbered paragraph (4 1-45). The first and last paragraphs of the text are not numbered. There is one extra heading which you do not need to use. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1. (10 points) [A] What to do as a student? Various definitions of plagiarism [C] Ideas should always be sourced [D] Ignorance can be forgiven [E] Plagiarism is equivalent to theft [F] The consequences of plagiarism Scholars, writers and teachers in the modern academic community have strong feelings about acknowledging the use of another person’s ideas. In the English-speaking world, the term plagiarism is used to label the practice of not giving credit for the source of one’s ideas. Simply stated, plagiarism is “the wrongful appropriation or purloining, and publication asone’s own of the ideas, or the expression of ideas of another.” 41 The penalties for plagiarism vary from situation to situation. In many universities, the punishment may range from failure in a particular course to expulsion from the university. In the literary world, where writers are protected from plagiarism by international copyright laws, the penalty may range from a small fine to imprisonment and a ruined career. Protection of scholars and writers, through the copyright laws and through the social pressures of the academic and literary communities, is a relatively recent concept. Such social pressures and copyright laws require writers to give scrupulous attention to documentation of their sources. 42 Students, as inexperienced scholars themselves, must avoid various types of plagiarism by being self-critical in their use of other scholars’ ideas and by giving appropriate credit for the source of borrowed ideas and words, otherwise dire consequences may occur. There are at least three classifications of plagiarism as it is revealed in students’ inexactness in identifying sources properly. They are plagiarism by accident, by ignorance, and by intention. 43 Plagiarism by accident, or oversight,sometimes is the result of the writer’s inability to decide or remember where the idea came from. He may have read it long ago, heard it in a lecture since forgotten, or acquired it second-hand or third-hand from discussions with colleagues. He may also have difficulty in deciding whether the idea is such common knowledge that no reference to the original source is needed. Although this type of plagiarism must be guarded against, it is the least serious and, if lessons learned, can be exempt from being severely punished. 44 Plagiarism through ignorance is simply a way of saying that inexperienced writers often do not know how or when toacknowledge their sources. The techniques for documentation-note-taking, quoting, footnoting, listing bibliography -- are easily learned and can prevent the writer from making unknowing mistakes or omissions in his references. Although‘there is no copyright in news, or in ideas, only in the expression of them,’the writer cannot plead ignorance when his sources for ideas are challenged. 45 The most serious kind of academic thievery is plagiarism by intention. The writer, limited by his laziness and dullness, copies the thoughts and language of others and claims them for his own. He not only steals, he tries to deceive the reader into believing the ideas are original. Such words as immoral, dishonest, offensive, and despicable are used to describe the practice of plagiarism by intention. The opposite of plagiarism is acknowledgement: All mature and trustworthy writers make use of the ideas of others but they are careful to acknowledge their indebtedness to their sources. Students, as developing scholars, writers, teachers, and professional leaders, should recognize and assume their responsibility to document all sources from which language and thoughts are borrowed. Other members of the profession will not only respect the scholarship, they will admire the humility and honesty. 1、主题句的分析、提炼 利⽤名词主体论分析提炼供选择主题句的主体名词,同时提炼对应的动作! 主体名词---对应动作 [A] What to do as a student?

the ends of chapters, and the dictionary (online or print) to find accurate and correct meanings. • Know the difference among signal phrase verbs in your in-text citations: An author who writes, states, says, suggests, argues, shows, illustrates, or proves does something different in each case – understand what the differences are!

Focusing Sentence (Topic sentence/Summarizing sentence) Support (Evidence/Proof) Discussion (Explanation/Analysis of Support)
The UNA University Writing Center Writing & Research Process Workshop Series
Dr. Robert T. Koch Jr. Director, University Writing Center University of North Alabama 3 March, 2008
If you start adding the sentences, you discover that a well developed paragraph is not very short.
•In everything you write, clarity is essential. This means
●Understand the components of an academic paragraph
●Develop a strategy for writing academic
paragraphs ●Use a checklist to identify the components of your paragraphs
2. Name four strategies for developing academic
paragraphs. (4 points)
Aning: Data, facts, figures, charts, graphs, tables, illustrations, anecdotes, and descriptions
•In all cases, proper summarizing, paraphrasing, or quoting using the appropriate style for in-text citation and documentation is expected.
•Discussion involves the use of your own words and ideas
•This is the proof from other academic sources used to support each topic sentence. Forms of this include
• Data, facts, and figures
• Charts, graphs, and tables • Illustrations, anecdotes, and descriptions
that what you write must be understood by the reader, who does not know exactly what you are thinking. Ideas must be spelled out completely and clearly, using accurate and correct words.
•For each paragraph in your draft, ask yourself the
following questions and mark each part: •Do I have a clear, focused topic sentence in each paragraph? •Do I use multiple forms of support in each paragraph? •Do I clearly discuss how each support item ties to the other support items and to the topic sentence?
•Identify the topic sentence or main idea of each paragraph
(paragraphs only have one main idea). Using word processor software, type each of these in a list separate from the rest of your text, making sure each is a complete and focused thought. •Under each sentence, indent and list the sources you intend to use as support – Note whether or not you will summarize, paraphrase, or quote them, and note the author and page where you found them. Find multiple types of support for each sentence. •Under each type of source support, indent and describe how it connects to the evidence above and below it, and how it connects to the topic sentence.
to build connections between each item of support, between each item of support and the topic sentence, and between the topic sentence and the primary goal of the assignment (the purpose and/or thesis) •Discussion explains a connection which the writer sees but which the reader might not see. Discussion must precede and follow each item of support evidence, which is the reason why two or more quotes cannot be stuck together back-to-back-to-back.
Instead of asking how long a well developed paragraph should be, think of it in terms of cascading ideas:
• Do you have a clear topic sentence? • Do you spend 2-3 sentences developing and discussing each
•This is often called the topic sentence of the essay. It
explains what the paragraph is about, most often by making a single claim or statement. •Most topic sentences are the first sentence of the paragraph. They transition from the content of the prior paragraph, establishing a relevant connection between the two ideas. •A topic sentence may appear at the end of a paragraph only if a substantial connection to the prior paragraph has been established at the start of the current paragraph.
