考研英语二小作文讲解和模板

考研英语二作文模板 一、小作文部分: 考生首先要掌握小作文的审题步骤。首先依据letter,email,notice等判断应用文类型是书信还是通知。 如果是书信的话,需要依据关键词进一步判断其为哪种书信(如看到inquire,ask for advice about等关键词可以初步判断出其为咨询信),如果是通知的话就简单了。而后是确认收信人信息(对方为具体的某个人还是机构、部门),选用不同的称谓表达。之后是写作内容,最后是署名部分。书信类署名一般为“Li Ming”,而通知署名一般为一个单位,如2010年英语一小作文考查的是一则通知,其署名为“Postgraduates’ Association”(“研究生会”)。 因为小作文属于“麻雀虽小,五脏俱全”,每句话都有其对应的要点,可以理解为没有废话。实际考试中,有相当一部分考生在小作文写作时看似写了很多,最终得分却不理想,根本原因就是写作时没有要点意识,想到哪儿写到哪儿,遗漏了很多得分点。因此,完成审题步骤后,考生需要掌握每一类应用文的写作思路及每段的信息要点。前述小作文的信息要点均有所不同,需要考生分类整理、记忆及运用。如,2017年考研英语一小作文考查的是推荐信,向新来的James Cook教授推荐你所在城市的一些旅游景点,并给出推荐理由。较好的写作思路是:分为三段,第一段表明写信目的,交代自己和要介绍的景点有关联,第二段写这些景点值得推荐的具体资格,并附上相关理由,第三段表示期待,期待自己的推荐对对方有所帮助。也就是说,这篇小作文有5个信息要点,缺少其中任一个要点均会被扣掉相应分数,因此,考生需注意每一类应用文的信息要点。 此外,小作文还注重格式问题,如果格式上不符合要求,则基本拿不到及格分(6分)以上的成绩。如,书信类在格式上可以选用缩进式或者齐头式,而通知类只能用缩进式;书信类结尾处一定有Sincerely yours等礼貌用语,而通知则无礼貌用语;书信类无标题,而通知要求考生必须自拟标题。 二、大作文部分: 相比于小作文,大作文考查形式要简单的多,英语一考查图画作文,而英语二为图表作文。但简单并不代表容易,考生在备考练习大作文时要注意的地方依然很多。比如,在大作文写作方面,《大纲》提出了明确的要求,中公考研老师将其总结为如下这16个字:语言准确,内容完整,组织连贯,语言多样。语言准确包括词汇、语法、标点三个方面,考生一般都清楚词汇、语法方面需要注意的细节,而往往忽略标点符号的问题,从而出现了在英语作文中使用书名号(“《》”)等问题。这是考生一定要警惕的问题。此外,相比于小作文,大作文还注重对考生语言表达方面的考查,即同样的汉语意思,用词多样、句式多变的英语版本就能拿到较高分数,而用词平淡、句式单一的话只能是较低分数。 此外,图画作文和图表作文的备考重点也有所不同。图画作文首先需要判断是一幅图还是两幅图,如果是两幅图的话,还要分析其内容是相反还是相似,然后采用不同的描图流程。而图表作文则首先需判断题目中所附图标为动态图还是静态图,动态图主要分析其变化,而静态图则侧重阐释其差异之处。而图表作文一般反映某种社会现象,因此其第二段一般可从原因角度或者影响角度对前述的变化或差异进行分析,并据此得出第三段的结论。

2018考研:英语二大作文历年出题点(教育类)

2018考研:英语二大作文历年出题点(教育类)来源:智阅网 写作时考研英语二中的一大题型,虽然所占分值不是很大,但大家也务必要重视,下面详细讲解一下教育类这方面大作文相关的出题点及其写作方向,希望对大家有所帮助。 教育类专题(就业率、毕业生工资、留学人数等) 1、观点论述 毕业、就业问题 An increasing number of graduates flock to the job market, making fierce the competition and largely pulling down the value of diploma(拉低了文凭的价值). 越来越多的毕业生涌入职场,让竞争更加激烈,大大拉低了文凭的价值。 With the rapid development of the Chinese higher education, the number of university graduates has been growing significantly. 随着中国高等教育的快速发展,大学生毕业的数量急剧增长。 We must admit that a good many graduates have turned down-to-earth(务实) and taken a rational and objective attitude towards their ability and value. 我们不得不承认,许多毕业生已变得更务实,对自身能力和价值有一个理性和客观的态度。 2、高分热文 中国学生及美国学生收入来源对比 Financial sources of College Students are quite different from those of American students. In China, students get 90% of their money from their parents while in America, only

2018考研英语二大作文:饼状图“春节花销”

2018考研英语二大作文:饼状图“春节 花销” 英语二大作文范文: Recent years have witnessed an increase in people’s expenses on Spring Festival. Of all the expenses, money spent on various giftsis at the top of the list, accounting forabout 40%. By comparison, those on food and traffic occupy 20% respectively. (套用小黄书26页句型) There seem to be two elements involved in this phenomenon that people spend more on gifts than on other parts. To begin with, sometimes, the real position of gifts in our mindhas less to do withits utilitythanits symbolic value, which represents our kindness to our friends and relatives. A good case in point now is a notable movie called ”Da Wan” or ”Big Shot’s Funeral”, directed by Xiaogang, Fen g, which spreads a well-knownview------gifts are indispensable in interaction with others. Meanwhile, externally, our society is sparing no efforts to produce a brand-new concept that one’s social status is associated tightly with the gifts we send to others, which can also show his or her property.(改写小黄书78页观点)To sum up, this trend is likely to continue for quite a long time in the future. Firmly, I believe that it is advisable for departments concerned to lay down strict rules and regulations so that we can put the situation under proper control. (改写小黄书24页结尾句型) 一、考研英语考什么 在备考之前,先要了解一下考研英语都考哪些题型,因为有同学之前问听力怎么复习、口语如何提高之类,了解只清楚之后才不至于南辕北辙走冤枉路。考研英语考五大题型:阅读、写作、翻译、新题型、完形填空。阅读是占的分值比例最大的模块,2/5的比例,每个小题2分,每篇文章设有5个题目,共有4篇文章;写作中大作文英语一是图画作文,一般围绕社会现象,20分,英语二是图表作文,15分,小作文均为10分;翻译英语一是从一篇文章里划出5句话让翻译,10分,英语二是段落翻译,15分;新题型英语一为七选五、小标题、排序题,英语二为多项对应(连线题)、小标题、正误判断,都为10分;完形填空每个0.5分,20个小题。 二、阶段备考安排 考研过程一般分为基础、强化、冲刺。在寒假阶段,建议大家着手准备单词,基础不错的可以自己准备,基础不好的,可以报个词汇班,比如刘一男的课程,比较生动有趣,结合词根词缀方便大家记忆,书的话推荐大家刘一男的《考研词汇速记指南》和何凯文的《1575必考词汇突破全书》。 基础阶段(3-6月),集中学习单词、长难句,以及各个题型要夯实基础。强化阶段(7-10

考研英语二小作文真题

考研英语二小作文真题 英语二小作文: 教授邀请你做presentation,给留学生将中国文化,接受邀请并回复他,需要列出presentation的要点。 2017考研英语写作出题思路分析 2017年考研英语的两篇小作文,都和“文化”有着密切的关系。新东方在线全国研究生入学考试研究中心几位政治老师看到这个话题,异口同声地说:政治没有考的,全考到英语里面去了。 英语一的小作文,是对于旅游景点的推荐。从信函体裁角度来说,这是一篇推荐信,但是和通常的推荐信又有所差异。但是分析历年英语一的真题,在11年考过对于一部电影的推荐,在15年考过对于一个活动的推荐,所以这个考法也算是在套路当中。 而推荐旅游景点,这个曾经在2014年6月四级考试中考过类似的内容:请给你的外国朋友写一封信,介绍一下你的家乡的一个景点(英语二的小作文,同样和文化有关:写一封接受中国文化讲座邀请的回复信。这个考查从形式上算是英语二的第一次了。可以看作回复信+建议信的写作模式。第一段是对于原信函的回复,采取回复信的写作模式;第二段是列举Presentation的要点,可以归为建议信的写作模式。而关于中国文化的内容,只要你认真背了政治的,应该都不会没有话写。 2017年考研英语的大作文,英语一考查的是关于读书的话题;英语二考查的是关于博物馆数量和参观博物馆人数的线状图。 英语一的作文话题,可以从文化的角度进行阐述,也可以从个人成长的角度进行阐述,甚至可以从图书市场发展的角度进行阐述。这也体现了考研作文慢慢透露出来的一个趋势是:主题多样化——也就是说,一张图片/图表,可以从多个角度进行解析。只要能够自圆其说,就不存在任何偏题的情况。并且,在作文的评分标准里面只有“内容信息是否完整”,而并没有提及主题是否准确这一话题。再考虑到阅卷时候的状态,所以,只要你能够将你自己准备的内容和这个话题套上去,就肯定没有问题了。 英语二的大作文第一次考查了线状图。线状图也是可以转化为柱状图的,只要把线的每个节点当作一根柱子即可,从这一角度看来,线状图和

2018考研英语二大作文例文

2018考研英语二大作文例文 The pie chart above clearly shows the proportion of the consumption of urban citizens during Spring Festival. The total expenditure on the holiday is classified into four types as follows: New Year gift, get-together, transportation, and others. New Year gift has the largest proportion, which accounts for 40%; then next is get-together and transportation both with 20%, followed by other expense, constituting 20%. It can be concluded from the pie chart that New Year gift is most popular factor that people tend to spend on while people also pay equal attention to gathering and transportation. Why does this phenomenon revealed in the pie chart above appear? Several reasons account for this situation. To begin with, I am strongly convinced that this is partly duo to the fact that the lunar New Year is a great occasion to the Chinese people, and giving each other presents at Spring Festival is an old traditional convention. In addition, this is partly because nowadays, people attach more attention to interpersonal relationship and social connection. Therefore, people choose to join a party and enjoy reunion dinner with their friends or family members. From the analyses made above, we may come to the conclusion that people would like to spend much money on New Year gift whereas they also pay equal attention to transportation and get-together. For centuries, Chinese have observed this traditional holiday to welcome the beginning of a new year, and their consumption model reflects not only their personal life style but also our traditional custom. 一、考研英语考什么 在备考之前,先要了解一下考研英语都考哪些题型,因为有同学之前问听力怎么复习、口语如何提高之类,了解只清楚之后才不至于南辕北辙走冤枉路。考研英语考五大题型:阅读、写作、翻译、新题型、完形填空。阅读是占的分值比例最大的模块,2/5的比例,每个小题2分,每篇文章设有5个题目,共有4篇文章;写作中大作文英语一是图画作文,一般围绕社会现象,20分,英语二是图表作文,15分,小作文均为10分;翻译英语一是从一篇文章里划出5句话让翻译,10分,英语二是段落翻译,15分;新题型英语一为七选五、小标题、排序题,英语二为多项对应(连线题)、小标题、正误判断,都为10分;完形填空每个0.5分,20个小题。 二、阶段备考安排 考研过程一般分为基础、强化、冲刺。在寒假阶段,建议大家着手准备单词,基础不错的可以自己准备,基础不好的,可以报个词汇班,比如刘一男的课程,比较生动有趣,结合词根词缀方便大家记忆,书的话推荐大家刘一男的《考研词汇速记指南》和何凯文的《1575必考词汇突破全书》。 基础阶段(3-6月),集中学习单词、长难句,以及各个题型要夯实基础。强化阶段(7-10

2018考研英语二写作技巧

2018考研英语二写作技巧 2018考研冲刺阶段,英语复习最主要的复习任务是什么呢?第一是在保持现有阅读理解水平的基础上尽可能再提高一步。第二是全力提高作文成绩,因为这是现阶段最容易提分的得分点。如何冲刺英语二高分?且看考试点英语二81分达人的成功经验。 小作文写作技巧 小作文一般以书信居多,因此,在写作时要注意一下两点。 第一,既然是书信,一定要按照书信的格式写作。阅卷老师最先注意到的就是格式,其次才通过阅读看看内容是否符合要求。不注意格式,肯定被扣分。还不熟悉书信格式的同学赶紧多多练习。 第二,要仔细审题。这个问题年年在强调,但是年年有人不注意,写作时往往会跑题。这样怎么能得高分?考试时时间很紧张,怎样快速审题?笔者建议大家首先要脑子里要迅速构建一副写作场景,接下来要抓住关键词,然后围绕场景和关键词进行扩展。这一点不是说一说看一看就能掌握,需要同学们现在多做强化训练。 具体写作就按照题目要求一个点写一段,总共分三段。这样给人的印象是重点突出、条理清晰。下面就以2014年小作文为例,简单分析一下每一段怎么写。 称呼:Dear John,注意称呼中,所有实词首字母全部大写,Dear John后面的逗号不可丢,也不能写成冒号。 正文: 第一段:写作内容需涵盖两点:自我介绍,写信目的。文章开门见山就是自我介绍,用到了这样的表达:I am Li Ming who will go to study in your university and live together with you in one department. 其中的“I am …who…”这个句型来自于建议信的表达,放在这里也十分贴切。接下一句话表明了写信目的:Now I am writing this letter to tell you some of my habits and ask you for some suggestions to adapt myself there. 第二段:写作内容为习惯介绍以及寻求建议。首先,介绍自己的生活习惯,自己一般早上六点起床外出锻炼;周末一般在图书馆看书;其次,希望John就如何适应当地生活给自己一些建议。 第三段:写作内容表示期待,良好祝愿。用到了这样的表达:I am looking forward to seeing you soon and wish everything goes well. 落款:Yours sincerely, 特别提醒sincerely后面逗号不能丢; 签名:Li Ming,特别注意Li Ming 后面一定不能出现句点。 大作文写作技巧 大作文写作近几年都是图表类作文。一般是给出1-2副图表,要求描述、分析原因和总结建议。其实也是三段式,每一段写一层意思即可。如果有两幅图,一般是进行对比,这就需要在写作中加入一些对比性的词语。 下面就为大家详解每一段怎么写,并附上一些常用词语和精彩句子。 第一段

2018考研英语一和英语二作文题型比较

2018考研英语一和英语二作文题型比较马上进入七月份了,大部分考生应该已经结束了基础阶段的复习,马上准备强化阶段了,所以单词背诵和长难句分析部分应该已经掌握了,如果还没有完成基础复习的同学们一定要抓紧时间了,不然后期你们的真题很有可能面临做不完的状态。进入强化阶段也就意味着大家要开始认真做并分析近十年真题,一定要做到把真题里边所有单词和句子全都查清楚,分析透彻并且全部翻译才能够有效的利用起来我们的真题。应为近十年真题里边的单词,语法和结构不可能只出现那一年的,这些内容会反复的去出题。所以大家一定要至少把真题部分分析两边以上。除此以外,强化阶段也要开始准备作文部分了。但凡我们六级成绩在550以下的学生都要去背模板背范文,以免出现太多的语法和单词方面的错误。要把每一种话题和题型的模板都背到位,因为模板里边有空格,有些基础较差的学生到了考场生会紧张有时候不知道空格内填一些什么内容什么词性,所以同学们一定要把近十年的真题作文范文全都背了,这些都是满分作文,大家考试的时候可以套用里边的结构,今天我们先来对比一下英语一和英语二的作文差别在哪里。 英语一的写作分为A、B两部分,主要考查考生的书面表达能力。在A部分中,考生根据所给情景写出约100词(标点符号不计算在内)的应用性短文,包括私人和公务信函、备忘录和报告等。在B部分中,考生根据提示信息写出一篇160-200单词(标点符号不计算在内)的文章。提示信息的形式有主题句、写作提纲、规定情景、图或表等。英语二的写作也由两部分组成,和英语一的考察目的一致,主要考察考生的书面表达能力。其中A部分的题型和英语一写作的A部分类似,要求考生根据所给情景写出约100词(标点符号不计算在内)的应用性短文,包括私人和公务信函、备忘录和报告等。英语二和英语一在写作部分的区别主要体现在B部分:英语二写作的B部分要求考生根据所规定的情景或者给出的提纲,写出一篇150词左右的英语说明文或议论文;提
