11、作文的困难,就是词语的困难。甚至竟有词语出不来,情急之下用汉语或拼音来表达某个意思的现象。Im a student of Hunan University. Im studying in Tumu Department. I like my major very much.尽管这样做是不得已而为之,但多少反映了英语作文时的窘态。词语的运用过不了关,英语作文的水平就无法提高。作文不同于阅读练习和词汇练习,不仅要有一定词汇量和词语辨析能力,更要求能较熟练和恰当的运用所学过的词语。要能正确和恰当地用词语表达意思,首先必须意识到英语词语和汉语词语并非是一一对应的。试比较两篇中英对照的作文:时间就是生命
12、。常言说:一寸光阴一寸金。时间就是生命。常言说:一寸光阴一寸金。的确,钱用完了可以再挣。但时间一去将永的确,钱用完了可以再挣。但时间一去将永不复返。从这一点上说,时间是无价的。不复返。从这一点上说,时间是无价的。我们都知道,生命是短促的,时间也是有我们都知道,生命是短促的,时间也是有限的。因此,很多人能够利用一切可利用的时限的。因此,很多人能够利用一切可利用的时间努力学习和工作。以便在有生之年多做一点间努力学习和工作。以便在有生之年多做一点力所能及的事。但也有一些人,终日无所事事,力所能及的事。但也有一些人,终日无所事事,胡思乱想,或闲聊着打发日子。到头来,这些胡思乱想,或闲聊着打发日子。到头

A Chinese proverb says, “One inch of time is as precious
14、as one inch of gold.” Actually, when money is spent, it can be regained. But time will never come back when it is gone. In this sense, time is valueless.It is generally acknowledged that life is short and time is limited. So many people will try to make the best use of their time to study and work.
15、In this way they can accomplish as much as they wish during their lifetime. But some people just idle away their time by daydreaming or talking nonsense. Surely, it will be too late for them to repent when they come to know the value of time.Young people should have ideal and ambition. To reach ones
16、 goal, a person is supposed to seize time and spend his time efficiently. In order to make the full use of time, it is advisable to work out a feasible timetable for things to be done. One thing to remember is that we are not supposed to leave todays work till tomorrow. Moreover, an awareness of the
17、 odds of time is also important. On the whole, it pays to spend time scientifically.只有通过反复实践,不断体会词只有通过反复实践,不断体会词语的含意和用法,掌握有关英语词语语的含意和用法,掌握有关英语词语运用的一些基本要求,才能减少失误,运用的一些基本要求,才能减少失误,并逐步提高表达能力。并逐步提高表达能力。文体指的是社会交际的需要而产生的不同文体指的是社会交际的需要而产生的不同的语言功能变体。一般来说,的语言功能变体。一般来说, 文体大致可分为文体大致可分为口语体和书面语体。进一步再分为正式文体和口语体和书
18、面语体。进一步再分为正式文体和非正式文体。因为文体的变化,词汇的使用亦非正式文体。因为文体的变化,词汇的使用亦有所不同。对初练写作的人而言,应适当了解有所不同。对初练写作的人而言,应适当了解正式文体与非正式文体的差异,尤其是词语的正式文体与非正式文体的差异,尤其是词语的区别。试比较两个内容相同,语言却不一样的区别。试比较两个内容相同,语言却不一样的图书馆的告示:图书馆的告示:1The number of books in the library has been going down. Please make sure you know the rules for borrowing, and
19、 dont forget that the library is for everyones convenience. So from now on, were going to enforce the rules strictly.

Penalties for overdue books will in the future be strictly enforced.2如果不管三七二十一乱用一通,作文读来如果不管三七二十一乱用一通,作文读来就显得不伦不类。例如:就显得不伦不类。例如:WaterExcept in the arid desert, water can be found everywhere. As a great part of the
21、 globe is covered with water, many people take it for granted that water is inexhaustible and there is no need to worry about it.However, water shortage is really a threat to people. In many densely populated cities and towns people have to use water grudgingly. Some factories cannot keep going norm
22、ally because of insufficient supply of water. Droughts in countryside are becoming more and more serious. Obviously, water shortage is endangering the survival of human beings.Therefore, it is crucial to take drastic measures to protect water against being polluted and overused. Recycling of water m
23、ust be encouraged, pollution of water must be eradicated, and anyone who cares greatly for water should be praised. We all must be aware of the fact that water means our survival.作文是一般文体,而个别词则不太得体。作文是一般文体,而个别词则不太得体。值得注意是,有的学习者为了使作文增色,不值得注意是,有的学习者为了使作文增色,不管恰当与否,依自己要表达的汉语意思,根据管恰当与否,依自己要表达的汉语意思,根据汉英词典上
24、给出的英语词,乱加套用,这种做汉英词典上给出的英语词,乱加套用,这种做法是不可取的。往往会因词害义。还有的学习法是不可取的。往往会因词害义。还有的学习者,将各种类型的作文书上提供的范文不加消者,将各种类型的作文书上提供的范文不加消化死记硬背,将其中的词语生搬硬套,很容易化死记硬背,将其中的词语生搬硬套,很容易张冠李戴,适得其反。张冠李戴,适得其反。大学英语作文涉及的多为日常话题,因而日常词语也使用较多。如果能把自己熟悉的日常词语用好用活,则足以充分表达自己的意思。有一篇四级作文,题目是“An Early Morning Walk”,看看一位学生的习作:An Early Morning Walk
25、One morning I got up very early, and everything around was very quiet. The morning star was still high up in the blue sky. (描述清晨天气晴朗好不一定说“It was a sunny day.) No people were in sight. (静悄悄见不到人) Somewhere there came the singing of unknown birds. (试比较The birds are singing in the trees.) Walking on the
26、 street, I could feel the smell of the early morning. (感受到清晨的气息)But when I arrived at the park, I was surprised to see many people there. Some boys and girls were playing merrily (欢快地) on the grass. Some young people were doing morning exercises. Some old men and women were practicing Taiji boxing b
27、y the lake. I never expected (没料想到) that the morning world was so charming (迷人), and I became to understand those people who were enjoying themselves in the garden. I myself also felt alive and free (精神抖擞,心旷神怡) after the walk. Taking early morning walk makes a man healthy and happy.-灵活运用常用词语还可使作文的词语
28、不显得灵活运用常用词语还可使作文的词语不显得太单调,例如:太单调,例如:没能没能 cant fail to / unable to / not be in a position to很多很多 a lot of various/ plentiful/ numerous/ countless/ abundant/quite a few必须必须 must be supposed to/be obliged to/ have no alternative希望希望 hope feel like / would like / expect / be dying to努力努力 work hard hardw
29、orking / diligent / industrious得到得到 get obtain / acquire/ achieve/ gain / win /earn有趣有趣 interesting fascinating/ attractive/entertaining/ pleasant/ enjoyable增进增进 increase expand/add to/ enhance/ enlarge / broaden/ develop/ improve正确使用词语是作文的基本要求。词语错误较多的话,意思就无法准确表达,也肯定会影响考试作文的得分。奇怪的是,不少词语的错误,很多学习者在词汇填
30、空或改错练习时,一般往往能一眼就看出来。但一旦写作文,却“明知故犯”,而且怎样错的竞浑然不觉。错误并不可怕,因为,练习英语写作的过程是一个不断犯错误和反复纠正错误的过程。关键是不要把作文当包袱,草草写完了事。写完后应当认真检查修改。此外,对作文中常反复出错的词语多加分析和归类,并有针对性的对照检查,也可避免一些常见错误。例如,不少人常将下列名词作单数用的名词作复数用:knowledge progress trouble experience work money advicebehavior information trafficequipment homework damage这些单词在作文
31、中出现频率较高,有必这些单词在作文中出现频率较高,有必要格外小心,频繁出错,就会给读者或阅卷要格外小心,频繁出错,就会给读者或阅卷人以不好的印象。人以不好的印象。词语用得具体,有助于展开细节,使词语用得具体,有助于展开细节,使作文不至于总是干巴巴的几句话。试比较:作文不至于总是干巴巴的几句话。试比较:TelevisionTelevision presents a vivid world in front of us.
