英语学习:写作中如何清晰地表达自己的观点?
Introduction引言
The introduction is the first paragraph in your essay, and
it should accomplish a few specific goals.
引言是文章的第一段,引言中应该完成一些具体的目标。
1. Capture the reader's interest.引起读者的兴趣
It's a good idea to start your essay with a really
interesting statement, in order to pique the reader's interest.
用一种有趣的叙述来开始你的文章是一个好想法,这样能够引起读者的兴趣。
Avoid starting out with a boring line like this:"In this essay I will explain why Rosa Parks was an important figure."Instead, try something with a bit of a surprise factor, like this statement:"A Michigan museum recently paid $492,000 for an old, dilapidated bus from Montgomery, Alabama."The second sentence sounds much more interesting, doesn't it? It would encourage most people to keep on reading.
避免用一些无趣平淡的句子开头,例如:“这篇文章我将论述为什么罗莎·帕克斯是一位伟大的人物”。
取而代之,尝试一些令人惊讶的
方式,比如:“密歇根博物馆最近以492000美元的价格收购了一辆蒙哥马利,阿拉巴马州的老旧公共汽车”。
第二个句子听起来非常有趣,不是吗?它能够激励读者继续阅读。
2. Introduce the topic.引出话题
The next few sentences should explain your first statement, and prepare the reader for your thesis statement."The old yellow bus was reported to be the very one that sparked the civil rights movement, when a young woman named Rosa Parks..."
接下来的几个句子应该阐释你的第一个论述,为读者阅读主题句做铺垫。
“正是这辆*的公共汽车引发了全*动,当时一名年轻的女性名为
罗莎·帕克斯……”
3. Make a claim or express your opinion in a thesis sentence.提出主题或者在主题句中表达自己的观点
At the end of your introductory paragraph, you will place a powerful thesis statement. Your thesis sentence should
provide your specific assertion and convey a clear point of view.
在引言的结尾部分,你应该提出强有力的主题陈述。
主题句应该提出
具体的推断和明确的观点、
"In refusing to surrender her seat to a white man, Rosa
Parks inspired a courageous freedom movement that lives on,"
“在拒绝让出自己的座位给一个白人时,罗莎·帕克斯激发了一场勇
敢的自由运动。
”
Your instructor will be looking for the specific elements above when reviewing your introductory paragraph, so be sure
to review your first paragraph to make sure it meets these three goals.
你的指导老师在检阅你文章的引言内容时,将会寻找这些具体的元素。
所以,回顾一遍第一段的内容确保满足了上述三点条件。
Body正文
The body of the essay will include three paragraphs (if this is a five-paragraph essay), each limited to one main idea
that supports your thesis. You should state your idea, then back it up with two or three sentences of evidence or examples.
这文一般包括三个段落(适用于五段式文章),每一段都具体论述一条观点用于支撑主题。
你应该陈述你的观点,之后用两三句话或举例来支撑。
Example of a main idea:
主题句举例:
"It took incredible courage for an African American woman to make such a bold stance in 1955 Alabama."
“在1955年阿拉巴马州,对于一个非裔美国妇女,做出这样一个大胆的行为需要很大的勇气”。
Offer evidence to support this statement:
为主题句提供论据:
"This act took place in an era when African Americans could be arrested and face severe retribution for committing the most trivial acts of defiance."
“在当时的情况下,非洲裔美国人可能会因为最微不足道的挑衅行为而被逮捕甚至可能面临严重的惩罚”。
Include a few more supporting statements with further evidence, then use transition words to lead to the paragraph that follows. All of your body paragraphs should follow the。
