寫作導(dǎo)引
本次的寫作任務(wù)是寫一封告知信,要求我們簡(jiǎn)單介紹中國(guó)書法、書法課程的意義以及練習(xí)書法的建議,并且至少需要使用一個(gè)with的復(fù)合結(jié)構(gòu),so...that句型或同位語(yǔ)從句。這些寫作要求和所給語(yǔ)篇的主題語(yǔ)境是緊密相關(guān)的。我們可以通過整合同主題閱讀材料的內(nèi)容和語(yǔ)言,梳理寫作思路和積累素材。
一、語(yǔ)篇解碼
(一)內(nèi)容分析
What?is?the?text?mainly?about?
(二)宏觀結(jié)構(gòu)
Fill?in?the?blanks?according?to?the?text.
二、素材積累
本次的寫作任務(wù)是基于“傳統(tǒng)書法”這一主題開展的寫作,我們可以通過模仿并運(yùn)用文章中的語(yǔ)言表達(dá),如詞塊和句型,積累寫作的語(yǔ)言素材。
(一)介紹類的核心表達(dá)
1.?symbolize?象征
2.?be?considered/seen/regarded?as?被認(rèn)為是
3.?a?wide?range?of?多種多樣的
4.?a?variety?of?各種各樣的

6.?Sth,?invented?by...,?is?a?new?tool?used?to...?……發(fā)明的……是一種用來……的新工具。
(二)描述意義的核心表達(dá)

7.?without...,?we?cannot...?沒有……,我們就不能……
8.?It?is?on?this?special?day?that?people?mourn?for?their?ancestors.?人們正是在這個(gè)特殊的日子里悼念他們的祖先。
三、寫作支架
本次的寫作任務(wù)是寫一篇融合介紹相關(guān)信息和提供建議的告知信,根據(jù)寫作要求,其語(yǔ)篇結(jié)構(gòu)可定為“簡(jiǎn)介+意義+建議”。文章的框架如下:
Hearing?that...,?I?am?writing?to?share?with?you?sth,?which?I?hope?will?be?helpful?to?you.
It?is?a?fact?that...?(簡(jiǎn)介).?It?functions?as...as?well?as...?(意義)?When?it?comes?to...,?it?is?highly?recommended?that?sb?should?do...
四、語(yǔ)篇過手
根據(jù)以上提供的主題、主題表達(dá)和語(yǔ)篇結(jié)構(gòu),我們可以寫出文章的第一、二段。第一段點(diǎn)出寫信的目的,第二段寫對(duì)中國(guó)書法的簡(jiǎn)介、書法課程的意義并提出練習(xí)書法的相關(guān)建議??傇~數(shù)控制在80左右。
同時(shí),學(xué)習(xí)運(yùn)用前文閱讀材料中出現(xiàn)的with的復(fù)合結(jié)構(gòu)、so...that句型或同位語(yǔ)從句。尤其要注意表達(dá)的內(nèi)在邏輯關(guān)系,需要注意使用恰當(dāng)?shù)倪B詞。
