例如:
08年江苏高考试卷“Being a Good Listener”中对“怎样倾听”的建议,表明其观点的主题句是:What I want to stress is that each of us should listen more to others.
08年浙江高考试卷“Working Individually or Working in a Team?”中对“我喜欢的方式和理由”,表明其观点的主题句是“Personally, I prefer to work in a team, which offers me a chance to learn how to get along with others and to share my experiences with them.”
再比如:
对于“法国一公司拍卖从圆明园被八国联军掠夺的鼠首和兔首事件”,你的感受如何?我们可以用这样的主题句表明我们的观点:“This kind of behaviour must be condemned,because it has not only hurt the feelings of the Chinese people, but has brought shame to the French people.”
再比如:
对于“The Environment or the Economy, Must we choose?”话题陈述个人观点,我们可以用这样的主题句表明我们的观点:As far as I am concerned, if we take the environment and the economy into consideration, a healthy environment and a stable economy should be possible at the same time.”
第二、 表达要扣题、要有层次
表达个人观点不是随意发挥。表达个人观点要紧扣题目要求,围绕题目进行适当的发挥,表达可以从宏观到微观;从抽象到具体;从理论到实践。表达要有层次,最好用“一个主题句+若干个支持句(最好两个句子)+一个总结句”的写作方法,因为这样表达既有层次,又有逻辑。
比如:
08年江苏省高考试卷书面表达参考答案有关“怎样倾听”是这样表达的:
What I want to stress is that each of us should listen more to others.(主题句,表明个人观点) Show your respect and never stop others till they finish their talk; (具体做法1)show you are interested by a supportive silence or a knowing smile; (具体做法2)be open-minded to different opinions even though you don’t like them. (具体做法3)In a word, good listening can really enable us to get closer to each other.(总结句,进一步阐明自己的观点)
再比如:
08年浙江省高考试卷书面表达“Working Individually or Working in a Team”中对“我喜欢的方式和理由”是这样描述的:
Personally, I prefer to work in a team, which offers me a chance to learn how to get along with others and to share my experiences with them. (主题句、阐明自己的观点)As the work can be divided among several people, it can be done efficiently.(支持句,说明自己观点的理由) Teamwork is always important.(总结句,对自己的观点做进一步的强调)
