【篇一:2014高考英语作文写作专项训练之说明文】

2014高考英语作文写作专项训练之说明文(基于2013全国各地高

考试题的分析整理)

一、文体题型概述(一)统计分析

说明文是今年来高考英语书面表达比较常见的一种体裁,其特点是

对事物或做事情的方法进行客观地介绍。有些书面表达题虽是以应

用文的形式出现的,但其主要内容也属于说明文。以下是2013年高

考说明文的分类统计:

分析上表可以看出,去年高考英语说明文以图画或者文字形式出现,并且常与其他文体

整合考察。要求学生能够按照一定的说明顺序对一定事物或事理进

行介绍和说明,以达到实际应用和交际的目的。(二)技巧策略

写说明文宜采用三段式:第一段主要介绍要说明的对象及说明的目的;第二段说明事物的主要特征或做事情的方法步骤;第三段进行

总结概括。时态通常用一般现在时。

写作时应遵循以下几个步骤:

1、仔细审题,明确说明对象,抓住要说明的事物或事理的主要特征。

2、选择合理的说明顺序(时间顺序、空间顺序或逻辑顺序)分层次

进行说明,注意条理清晰。

3、选择恰当的说明方法,比如定义法、举例法、比较法和细节描述

法等,不要遗漏主要内容。

4、根据说明顺序及内容确定过渡词和恰当的句型结构。文字应客观、简洁、明了,不要追求华丽和加入太多个人观点。

5、图标类作文注意:

(1)图表和数据内容不一定要全部描述。(2)善于抓住总的规律,趋势,归纳增减率。

(3)时态:特定时间用过去时。经常出现的情况或自己的评述用一

般现在时。(4)要适当运用一些高级词汇并灵活使用图表类写作常

用的经典好句型。(三)常用表达 1、过渡词

表顺序:first, second, third, in the first place, above all, at first, in the beginning, to begin with, besides, what’s more, in addition, furthermore, moreover, another, also, especially, in particular 表时间:first, then, next, after that, next, finally now,

at present, recently, after, afterwards, after that, after a while,

in a few days, form now on, from then on, at the same time, meanwhile, till, not…until, before, after, when, while, as during,表示解释说明:for example, for instance, in this case, such as…, take… for example,in fact, actually

表顺序:first, then, next, finally, in the first place, last but not least, above all, first and foremost,

表递进:in addition,besides,fruthermore,what’s more,on the other hand,meanwhile,for one thing…for another, on top of that, apart from that, 表举例:for example,for instance,such as,a typical (striking) example is that,a case in point 表目的: for this reason,, for this purpose, so that, in order to, so as to,

表总结:in a word, in short, in brief, on the whole, generally speaking, in my opinion, as far as i know, as we all know, as has been stated, as i have shown, finally, at last, in summary, in conclusion, 2、常用句型:

1) nowadays it is common to use…, but not knowing how to use…keeps many people away

from enjoying the wonderful service that …has brought us.

2) as is known to all, it is important to …. therefore, an increasing number of people are

showing more interest in how to …

3) with the development of …, there is an increasing need for people to know how to … 4) there are several steps to follow./ here are some tips. 5) the f irst thing to do is to …

it is obvious in the graphic/table that the rate/number/amount of y has undergone dramatic changes. it has gone

up/grown/fallen/dropped considerably in recent years (as x varies). at the point of x1, y reaches its peak value of …(多少). what is the reason for this change? mainly there are …(多少) reasons behind the situation reflected in the graphic/table. first

of all, …(第一个原因). more importantly, …(第二个原因). most important of all, …(第三个原因).

from the above discussions, we have enough reason to

predict what will happen in the near future. the trend described in the graphic/table will continue for quite a long time (if necessary measures are not taken括号里的使用于那些不太好的变化趋势) 二、经典例题分析(2006全国卷i)假定你是李华。应英国朋友bob的要求,写一封短信介绍你校图书馆的基本情况。内容须包括下面两幅图中的相关信息。注意:

1、字数100左右

四、真题参考范文(2013安徽卷) one possible version

from the picture we can see a family of three walking on a long red carpet. the son, well dressed, waves proudly in the middle while the father behind bends forward to hold the jacket and

the mother in front rolls out the carpet, sweating.

it shows a common phenomenon nowadays that children are the focus of families, shouldering the hope of their parents. parents arrange everything for their children and spare no

effort to pave the way for their success. as a consequence, children become so reliant on their parents that they have no independent thought or creative ideas.

such a situation is of great concern. in my opinion, overprotection and too much care are extremely bad for childrens development. instead of doing everything for them, parents should encourage their children to overcome

difficulties and inspire them to develop by themselves. only in this way can they grow up to be independent and become truly successful. (2013江苏卷)

actions speak louder than words

people celebrate earth day differently. in picture 1, a man is trying to put up a banner on a lonely tree surrounded by stumps, but in vain, while picture 2 shows a couple happily planting trees.

the message conveyed here is clear: “actions speak louder than words.” our earth is suffering
