英语四级写作范文及点评:提高英语学习的动机

分类: 英语四级作文 
许多中国人花了很多时间在这个看到就头疼的英语上,只为了考试,成绩却常常一塌糊涂。如果只有外来的压力,学习效果就不会好到哪儿去。源自内心的动力是必需的。

Improving Your Motivation for Learning English

Remember there is a lot that you don’t know

You are good, but your English probably isn’t perfect. You probably can’t understand English language TV, read books in English, talk to native speakers easily, write letters without mistakes, etc.

Even if you are the best student in your class, always try to find your weak areas and work on them. When you’ve learned to speak English well, your problems will be quite small: punctuation, rarely used grammar structures, rare words, understanding “street language”. Right now, your problems are probably more basic: mistakes in pronunciation, small vocabulary, grammar problems with the present perfect tense and conditional structures.

Use your English whenever you can

The more you use English, the more you will want to learn it. Because English is so popular, you can use it everywhere.① You can use Google to find Englishlanguage websites with interesting information, you can watch American cartoons, you can play adventure games on your computer, you can read interesting books in English, or you can do other things that we write about.②

If you do these things, you will not only have fun and learn English. If you see that a new English word lets you understand your favorite TV show (or communicate with people, or beat a computer game), you will want to learn more words. So you will learn English more, use it more, learn it more, use it more... If you also use effective learning methods, your English will grow faster than you can imagine.

行文点评

文中的小标题自然地将文章分为两部分,分别是作者针对提高英语学习的动机所提出的两点建议。在每一部分中又各自分成两段,第一段说明建议的合理性,第二段说明这样做的好处,结构非常清晰。

文章避繁就简,用词简单明了,句式多用短句构成结构并不复杂的长句,既通俗易懂又增强可读性,排比句的使用也为文章增色不少。

提高英语学习的动机

记住你还有很多不懂的东西

你现在很不错,但是你的英语很有可能达不到非常出色的程度。你很可能还听不懂英语电视节目,读不懂英语书,不能很容易地与以英语为母语的人谈话,不能没有丝毫错误地写英文信,等等。

即使你是班里最好的学生,也要经常努力去发现你的弱势并且多下功夫。当你的英语已经说的相当好时,你的问题就小多了:标点符号,很少被使用的语法结构,不常见的单词,理解“街道语言”。现在,你的问题很可能就更基础性了:发音上的错误,词汇量小,现在完成时和条件结构从句的语法问题。
