閱讀下面的短文,然后按要求寫一篇150詞左右的英語短文。
“Can I see my baby?” asked the happy new mother.The bundle(嬰兒包)was placed in her arms and when she moved the fold of cloth to look upon his tiny face, she gasped.The doctor turned quickly and looked out the hospital window.The baby has been born without ears.Time, however, proved that the baby's hearing was perfect except his appearance.One day when he rushed home from school and threw himself into his mother's arms, he cried out bitterly, “A boy, a big boy… called me a f…freak.” She sighed, knowing that his life was to be endless of heartbreaks.He grew up, handsome for his misfortune.A favorite with his fellow students, he might have been class president, but for that.He developed a gift for literature and music.The boy's father had a talk with the family doctor.Could nothing be done? “I believe we could graft(移植)on a pair of outer ears, if they could be donated(捐獻),”the doctor decided.So the search began for a person who would make such a sacrifice.Two years went by.Then, “You're going to the hospital, son.Mother and I have someone who will donate the ears you need.But it's a secret,” said the father.The operation was a brilliant success.His talents blossomed(開花)into genius.School and college became a series of successes.Later he married and entered the diplomatic(外交)service.“But I must know!” he urged his father.“Who gave so much for me? I could never do enough for him.”
“I do not believe you could,” said the father, “but the agreement was that you are not to know…not yet.”
The years kept the secret, but the day did come…one of the darkest days that ever passed through a son.He stood with his father over his mother's casket(棺材).Slowly and tenderly, the father stretched forth a hand and raised the thick, reddish-brown hair to let out the secret.【寫作內容】
1.以約30個詞概括這個感人的故事;
2.以約120個詞,請就“在受別人的幫助中,學會了幫助別人”的話題寫一篇英語短文,表達你內心的感受,并包括如下要點:
(1)你看完這個故事后,你如何評價這位母親的無私行為;
(2)請以你的日常生活經歷的事情為例,說明別人的善良行為對你的影響;
(3)你的感想。
【寫作要求】
1.作文中可使用自己的親身經歷或虛構的故事,也可以參照閱讀材料的內容但不得直接引用原文中的句子;
2.標題自定。
所給文章屬于記敘文文體,第一段在概括時,要抓住記敘文的“六要素”,即who/ when/ where/ 括部分可以加上事件帶給我們的啟發,注意,“啟發”句要用一般現在時表達。本文的概要必須包含以下要點:A baby was born without ears.Someone donated the ears the boy need.The 第一個寫作要點“你看完這個故事后,你如何評價這位母親的無私行為”,是要對故事中母親的行為發表你的看法,所以在概括部分和此要點之間可以使用After reading the story, I am deeply moved and realize that…進行過渡,而且為了與下一個要點銜接,該部分的感想最好涉及“善良行為”,為下文做鋪墊。第二個要點“請以你的日常生活經歷的事情為例,說明別人的善良行為對你的影響”,此部分的例
子要精練,因為本文畢竟不是記敘文,之后要結合所舉事例來談對自己的影響,切忌事例與感想脫節。第三個要點還要談“你的感想”,在結構和內容上是對前面內容的總結和升華。是摘要部分,寫作內容部分的三個要點分別為二、三、四段。
通常來講,讀寫任務部分所寫短文的段落數可以根據寫作要求的要點數來確定:總段數=1+要點數。其中,摘要為第一段,其他各段內容依要點順序安排即可。
Help is Always Unselfish
A unselfish mother donated her ears to her imperfect son without telling him about it.At last, the son got the secret from his father after his mother died.Help is always unselfish.The mother donated her ears to her son, showing her greatest love to her child.From these, we can know how difficult it is for parents to raise their children.In the daily life, we always get kind help from our teachers, classmates and friends.And their kind help is always unselfish.When I was in Senior Middle School, I lived in the school.Every time I was ill, my teachers and classmates gave me kind help, taking good care of me all the time.In today's society, I was affected by some bad things, which made me think that there was no kindness in the world.It was my friends who did everything to help me out.From these experiences, I have realized that helping others is necessary, and true love does exist in our daily life.Since then, I have changed myself a lot, and I also give hands to others when they are in need of help.閱讀下面的短文,然后按要求寫一篇150詞左右的英語短文。
I received a call from the nursing home.Grandpa was failing rapidly.There was nothing to do but hold his hand.“I love you, Grandpa.Thank you for always being there for me.”
Memories… memories… six days a week, Grandpa in that old blue shirt caring for those cattle… on hot
summer days plowing the soil, planting the corn and beans and harvesting them in the fall…always working from dawn to dusk.But on Sundays he put on his gray suit and hat.Grandma wore her wine-colored dress and ivory beads, and they went to church.I removed Grandpa's things from the room and found a very old handmade valentine in the top drawer
of his nightstand.A piece of white paper had been glued to the center of the heart.On it, penned in Grandma's handwriting, were these words:
TO LEE FROM HARRIET with All My Love, February 14, 1895
Are you alive? Real? Or are you the most beautiful dream that I have had in years? Are you an angel — or a figment of my imagination?
You made me laugh when my heart was crying.You helped me set new goals when I was dying.You showed me dew drops and I had diamonds.You sang to me and angelic choirs burst forth in song.You held my hand and my whole being loved you.You gave me a ring and I belonged to you.I belonged to you and I have experienced all.Tears streamed down my cheeks as I read the words.Now it is framed on my dresser, a treasured part of family history.【寫作內容】
1.以約30個詞概括短文的要點;
2.然后以約120個詞就“真愛”的主題發表看法,并包括如下要點:
(1)真愛的重要性;
(2)你對真愛的看法及理由。
【寫作要求】
可以使用實例或其他論述方法支持你的論點,也可以參照閱讀材料的內容但不得直接引用原文中的句子。
________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ One possible version:
After his grandpa passed away, the author found the grandpa's valentine which is a fitting testament to the true and holy love story about his grandpa and grandma.It is essential for everyone to get true love in his lifetime.On the one hand, it can bring in full confidence, but on the other hand it can contribute to many success.Without true love, however, you are not courageous to
meet challenges.What's more, you will fail in your study.From my personal point of view, we, out of true love, are considerate of each other's feelings and courteous in our actions toward one another;but we do not insist that our own way is
best and demand that our mates give in to us.Besides, we are concerned not only about our own individual interests, but about the interests of the other as well, because we look forward to our relationshipgrowing more meaningful and precious.Last but not least, we should treat our mates with absolute trust.As soon as we gain true love each other, we'll be enabled to fight and overcome any difficulty;at the same time, we'll find our life full of color and flavor.

第四篇:英語應用文寫作之邀請信
英語應用文寫作之邀請信
(一)一、邀請信及復信
邀請信包括宴會邀請、午餐和晚餐邀請、聚會邀請、舞會邀請、婚禮邀請等。
邀請信雖然看起來不象請柬那樣正規、莊重,但是,也是很講就的。寫好邀請信,需注意以下幾個問題:
1.邀請信一定要寫得明確、完整,不可給收信人留下任何疑問。如: “ I’d like you and Tom to come to dinner next Wednesday.” 這樣的寫法就不夠明確,需要加上具體的日期和時間。該句應寫成: “I’d like you and Tom to come to dinner on Wednesday, June 14, at seven o’clock.”
2.在歐美國家,夜晚的邀請,除了那些只允許男人參加的社交活動之外,不論是正式的,還是非正式的,都應該邀請夫妻雙方參加。
3.別人對你的邀請是對你的尊重,因此,無論能否赴約,都應該給與及時的、有禮貌的答復。
4.對于邀請信,在復信時應該明確地說明是接受邀請, 還是不能接受邀請。不能使用模棱兩可的話。如: “ I’ll try my best to come.” “ I’ll come if I’m in town.” 等等,那樣會使邀請人感到十分不安,應該明確說明去還是不去,以便讓邀請人早做安排。
5.接受邀請時,在回信時要重復寫上邀請信中的某些內容,如:
幾月幾日、星期幾、幾點鐘等等。不應該這樣寫:“ I’ll be delighted to attend your luncheon…”,而應該寫成: “ I’ll be delighted to attend your luncheon on Thursday, May tenth, at one o’clock.” 這樣寫,可以糾正你或邀請人可能弄錯了的日期和時間。
(一)宴會邀請信及復信
邀請朋友赴宴(Inviting a Friend to Dinner)
Dear Zhang Ning,Will you and Mr.Wang Yi have dinner with us on Tuesday, the fifth of May, at seven o’clock?
It’s a long time since we have had the pleasure of seeing you and we do hope you can come.Sincerely yours,Elizabeth K.Benton ·接受邀請(Acceptance)
Dear Mrs.Benton,Wang Yi and I will be delighted to dine with you on Tuesday, the fifth of May, at seven o’clock.How nice of you to ask us!We are both looking forward with great pleasure to seeing you and Dr.Benton again.Very sincerely yours,Zhang Ning
不能赴約(Regret)
Dear Mrs.Benton,I’ve been putting off this note until the last possible moment, hoping and hoping Wang Yi would get back from Shanghai in time for your dinner party.But now I must regretfully write that he’ll still be out of town on Tuesday, the fifth;and we therefore cannot accept your kind invitation for dinner on that day.It was sweet of you to ask us;and I know Wang Yi will be as sorry as I am to miss an evening with you and Dr.Benton.We know how delightful such evenings at your house usually are!Sincerely yours,Zhang Ning
2.邀請朋友赴宴和看電影
現代人由于忙忙碌碌,邀請信總是寫得很簡短,邀請朋友赴宴和看電影,通常只寫上幾行字,但是,他們認為這并不是草率和不恭敬的表現,只是為了速度快些罷了。例如:
Dear Li Ming,We have four tickets for a new movie Brokeback Mountain this Friday, the tenth.Will you and He Yi join us here for dinner at six sharp;and then go on with us later to the movie? We’ll be
looking for you Friday night, so don’t disappoint us!
Affectionately yours,Doris
·接受邀請(Acceptance)
Dear Doris,Delighted!We’ll be there Friday at six, and go with you
afterward to the cinema.How wonderful of you and Frank to ask us!….Affectionately yours,Li Ming·不能赴約(Regret)
Dear Doris,I think you’d better ask some other couple for Friday.He Yi is in Shanghai and won’t be back for another week.Wait till he hears what a wonderful evening he missed with you and Frank!Thanks for asking us, Doris.I’m certainly sorry we can’t say “yes”!
Affectionately yours,Li Ming
3.取消非正式宴會的短箋
有時候,由于生病或其他原因,需取消原定的宴請,如果時間緊,可以用電話通知已邀請的客人,如果有時間,應該寫一封短信表示歉意。
Dear Mrs.Jennings,I have just learned that my son, who is at school in Shanghai, was injured in a basketball game.Although the injury is not very serious, Lin Kai and I feel we must go to him at once;and we are leaving tomorrow morning.Under the circumstances, we must recall our dinner
invitations for Tuesday, the fifth of May… and plan on a later date for our party.I’m sure that you and Mr.Jennings will understand our anxiety, and will forgive this last-minute change in plans.Sincerely yours,Li Li
4.對于非正宴請的不能如期赴約的短箋
按照英美人的習慣,應邀者因為生病或其他原因而不能如期赴約時,應該打個電話或寫一封短信告訴邀請人。當然,只有在萬不得已時才能做出這樣的改變。
Dear Mrs.Benton,I’m very sorry to have to write you this letter!After accepting your kind invitation for dinner on Tuesday, May the fifth, I now
find that we cannot be there after all.Li Yong has just been called to Shanghai on business;and although he tried very hard to postpone the trip until after the fifth, he was unable to do so.We had been looking forward with great pleasure to seeing you and Dr.Benton;and we both feel very badly about this unexpected development.We hope you understand, and that you will not be inconvenienced.Sincerely yours,Wang ShanshanWriting Assignment 1:寫一封邀請信,要請你的好朋友Elizabeth K.Benton 本周六晚7點到你家赴宴, 然后一起去電影院看新電影《金剛》(KING KONG)(The Eighth Wonder of the World.)。以Elizabeth K.Benton的身份給你寫一封表示接受邀請的回信。

英語達人學習英語之寫作篇

大學的時候很少很少練寫作,因為我比較懶,不愛用手寫東西,那時候沒有筆記本,所以只是在每周上寫作課的時候會寫文章,或者如果其他課會留論文的話,才會去動手寫。但盡管這樣,像昨天閱讀篇里寫到的,大學的時候一直有保持讀native speaker的文章的習慣,有的時候這種習慣造成的影響是潛移默化的。你讀的東西很多,自然腦子里就有很多東西,等下筆寫作的時候自然會有話可說,有物可談。正所謂高收入才能高產出。尤其要提到的一點是,大三的時候第一次考GRE,因為很畏懼GRE閱讀,那個時候基本就把閱讀放棄了,因為GRE的文章讀的很少,那么寫出來像GRE風格的文章的能力也就很差,導致第一次考G時作文才得了4.5.現在回憶起來,貌似第一次考G時,argument和issue加起來總共才寫了4篇。汗自己。這說明啥?!不管以前的基礎打的如何扎實,如果不繼續勤加練習,想憑以前的水平吃老本,到最后吃虧的還是自己。。所以,練習和積累永遠都是王道,永遠都別想著鉆空子,因為根本就沒空子可鉆。就好比永遠都別想著走捷徑,因為根本沒捷徑。研究生的時候,有了筆記本,自己不敢再找任何借口,加之第一次GRE考的慘到極點,自然不敢再松懈自己。于是才開始了系統練習寫作的過程。一開始練習的是托福寫作。把托福所有所有題庫都找出來(貌似托福自己沒有題庫,我用的是李笑來的分類題庫),先是把所有的題都讀了一遍,在李笑來對題庫劃分的基礎上,自己又進行了重新的劃分,這種劃分主要是便于我自己理解和記憶。然后列計劃,每天寫多少多少篇,有些題目彼此很相像,所以寫一篇就行了。計劃列好以后,堅持每天寫兩篇文章,都要掐時間。有的時候如果狀態很好,會寫三篇。這貌似是貫穿于整個復習iBT的過程中的,每天都會寫至少兩篇,一天都沒有斷過。后來考試的時候,遇到的題目貌似還是很熟悉的,因為本來就寫了很多很多文章,貌似在短時間內狂飆了六七百字,后來托福iBT作文還考了30分滿分,所以長時間的練習總算是沒有白費。
考完了IBT,就開始復習GRE寫作?,F在還可以翻來當時復習GRE機考時寫的博文來看,那個時候的態度絕對是破釜沉舟式的。方法基本和復習托福作文一樣,先是讀一休和阿狗的所有題目。阿狗沒什么可說的,基本從高頻到低頻一直寫下去。一休是先對其進行分類,然后在各類型中再根據高低頻排列,每類都挑高頻先寫,然后從高頻到低頻每天都寫一篇。然后一個多月的時間,每天堅持掐時間寫一篇一休,一篇阿狗,從未間斷過。復習來復習去,最后總共寫了大概四五十篇文章。最后考試的時候,自己比較幸運,阿狗和一休都抽到了高頻題,一休更是歷史最高頻一休51題(竟然現在還記著題號。太激動了。),后來立即發了“我被高頻撞了一下腰”的文章,啊哈哈哈哈,想起來就好玩~所以研究生的時候對寫作的練習真的是下了很大的辛苦。哦對了,后來GRE機考考了5.5,本來目標是滿分的,不過我知道阿狗的一個點批的邏輯不夠嚴謹,算了吧。
過去的這一年在美國,那稱不上是對寫作的“練習”,那絕對稱得上是摧殘。自從來了美國以后,就開始計算自己到底寫了多少東西。美國的學習制度一般是這種的,他們不可能讓你快活一個學期,然后最后來一個期末就完事了。像中國大學和研究生這種學習,基本大家期末的時候稍微抱一下佛的腳丫子,都考第一了。這種對學習的系統消化不太有好處。但是在美國,他們基本是這樣的,剛開學吧,老師說,好,同學們,我們來個熱身吧,大家寫一個5頁的小論文好不好啊。5頁出去了。過了十幾天,老師說,好吧,同學們,為了讓大家彼此之間熟悉,我們來寫一個25頁的小組論文吧,這一個人又得寫個8頁左右。到了期中了,老師說,同學們啊,看時間過得多快,來個期中個人的大論文吧,15頁。期中完了,再來一個小調研式的論文吧,10頁。后來為了讓同學們對期末有所準備,再寫一個小的8頁論文。期末了吧,再來一個15頁的。我們這個專業,基本每門課都是這樣的,每個學期四門
課下來,老師會足足讓你寫不下五萬詞的論文。我們都很崩潰。所以,現在也不用自己練習了,光被這些老師們,就已經逼成寫作機器了。不過這樣有一個好處,就是不管你什么時候學了什么內容,總會在之后的論文寫作中將知識用于實際的案例中。哦,貌似還沒有加上在實習機構為其寫的各種case note, 和每周的工作記錄?,F在被逼出來的后果是,一個全新的題目,如果是10頁的話,第二天早晨9點交,我們都會在前一天晚上七點才開始寫,一般十二點睡覺的時候就寫好了,還能保證是A。。這說明啥。人的潛力是無窮的。我們這幫人都已經逼成寫作機器了。。Orz....所以,你只要多寫,狂寫,你也能寫得很快很好的!真的都是硬練出來的??!
2.寫文章的基本步驟
第一步,讀題,分析題目。一個論點,正反論證永遠都是最有力的。(下面詳細說)
第二步,列大綱,就那種簡單的大綱就行。列一個大綱最多就四五分鐘,除非遇到很變態的題目要想很久。
第三步,寫!寫論文的時候,我不知道大家的腦子里一般都想什么,但我一般就是寫這一段主旨句的時候,腦子里就趕快想例子。寫例子的時候,腦子里就趕快想這一段的結尾句怎么措辭。寫結尾句的時候,就想下一段的主旨句怎么寫。這樣比較快!
第四步,檢查。有人有檢查的習慣,我沒有這個習慣,但是如果有時間的話,檢查一下語法啦拼寫啦之類會有好處。
3.關于一篇文章的寫作架構
說中國文章是八股文,但其實英文文章才是最八股的八股文。這一點經過過去一年狂讀老外的論文得到了證實。為啥現在讀國外的東西越來越快呢?主要是因為他們的文章寫的太清晰易懂了,每段話的第一句就是這段的主旨句,然后一個例子,然后一個結尾句,論點、論據、論證三部分特別容易找到,所以一篇很長的文章很快就可以讀完。所以我說,咱們寫文章也要這樣,他們老外覺得這是好文章,你考托福雅思GRE,為了得高分,也得寫成他們喜歡的這種樣子。所以,要嚴格記住,一個文章的架構,要這樣:
第一段:開頭段:明確點名中心,必須必須必須必須必須有中心句!
第二段:論證一段(正面論證)
1.某東西重要,為啥重要,提出第一個理由,必須要有本段的主旨句!
2.論據:就是舉例子,用實際的例子來證明為啥要有這個理由。
3.結尾句:其實結尾句就是本段主旨句的paraphrase,用另外一種說法說一遍就行!
第三段:論證二段(正面論證)
1.某東西重要,為啥重要,提出第二個理由,必須要有本段的主旨句!
2.論據:就是舉例子,用實際的例子來證明為啥要有這個理由。
3.結尾句:其實結尾句就是本段主旨句的paraphrase,用另外一種說法說一遍就行!
第四段:論證三段(反面論證)
1.某東西重要,沒有了某東西就會有怎樣不好的后果,提出一個壞的后果,必須要有本段的主旨句!
2.論據:就是舉例子,舉一個沒有了這個東西以后的壞結果的實例。
3.結尾句:其實結尾句就是本段主旨句的paraphrase,用另外一種說法說一遍就行!
第五段:結尾段:明確重申中心,必須必須必須必須必須有結尾句!結尾句就是本篇文章中心句paraphrase!
這里說一下,這種結構里,第一段必須有,任何情況下都必須有!第二段到第四段,你想說幾個理由就說幾個理由,一般至少要兩個理由,這兩個理由可以是一正一反,也可以是兩正,我鼓勵大家寫一個反的理由,主要是1.為字數考慮;2.為論證邏輯的嚴密性考慮。最后一段結尾段,一般國外大學寫論文時,可以沒有結尾段,但是如果考托福雅思GRE,那么時
間允許的情況下,盡量要寫出結尾段,這樣可以讓文章更完整。
4.關于湊不夠字數的情況
字數其實是很好湊的,一可以用例子來湊字,二可以用正反論證來湊字。比如,如果你寫了兩個理由以后,發現兩個自然段加起來字數還是不夠,那么就可以寫一個反的段落,兩段變成三段,論證的是一個論點,字數也上去了。
5.關于對文章的修改以及互改小組
對文章進行修改是一定能進步的,可以自己修改,可以找別人修改。我一般是自己修改,后來寫得多了以后,寫來寫去也沒啥可改的。如果希望對文章進行修改的話,最好再一開始練習寫作的時候,就和水平較好的筒子組成寫作小組,大家要寫一起寫,寫一樣的題目,一起掐時間,每次練習都當成模考一樣練,然后彼此給對方互相改,這樣比較有效。如果大家寫的題目不一樣,人家一是不太有心情看你的文章,二是對你這個題目不熟悉,就不容易改出好建議來。關于互改小組,現在太傻寄托之類的都會有這種小組,這種小組我以前參加過一天,也學著別人發一個帖子,諸如“某某題處女作,歡迎批磚”一類的,發現要么是沒人給改,要么就是別人敷衍式地給你改改、主要是希望你幫他改。對于這樣的互改小組,如果能參加到一個非常好、互動很強的、組長很有組織性和主動性的小組,那么進步會很大的。所以要參加,就找個好的,要么就干脆別參加。
6.關于例子
現在網上有很多那種作文論據例子集合啊、大全啊之類的,這種東西下載兩三個,稍微背背就行了,永遠要記住,例子不是關鍵,關鍵是你的論點和你論證的方式,例子只是讓你的論點論證過程更充實更飽滿,例子不等于全部。如果花了五個小時在背例子上,卻花了30分鐘寫文章,那就不對了。背一堆例子發現不會用,也是白搭。所以,不要總花很多時間逛論壇、并無恥地以收集例子為借口,其實你就是無恥地不想寫不想下筆練習嘛。你還是得應該逼自己動筆才行。一般例子的來源有兩大種,一是平時博覽群書的長時間的積累;二是為了應付考試臨時從網上下載例子來背。兩種方法都可以,哪個對你更有效就用哪個。
7.關于寫出來的東西過于簡單
四六級的東西不要怕簡單,句子簡單不代表一定很幼稚。外國作家有的人的東西很簡單,從來不用復雜句,但人家寫出來的東西不得不讓人佩服。所以不要妄想通過復雜句來讓自己的文章變得有思想,要知道,思想是思想,句子形式只是表象而已。如果你有了思想,但句子簡單,可以嘗試將意思相關的短句糅合成復雜句。糅合的方法具體見語法書,關于語法書我也不知道該推薦什么,隨便拿一本看看吧。
非常重要的一個事情是,有的人為了寫復雜句而寫復雜句,把不相關的短句故意雜糅在一起,讓人讀起來一頭霧水。如果想寫出變換多樣的文章,改怎么辦呢?我還是推薦一個字,讀!別人的文章讀多了,你自然就知道如何去運用于自己的寫作過程中了。這還是一個一樣漫長的積累過程。英語學習急不得,像寫作這樣進步并不是很明顯的能力就更加急不得了
8.關于如何將背會的詞語用于寫作里
背了的詞語就要運用到自己的文章里,這可以既提高對單詞的記憶程度、又增加自己文章的色彩。我覺得一個好的辦法,還是前篇文章里提到的,我的好朋友將同義詞、反義詞進行成組的總結,然后進行背誦。這樣的話,說到一個詞,你對那一組的詞的記憶力就能被激活,然后就可以不斷轉換不同的詞來運用,而不是只停留于happy, important之類的基礎詞了。如果時間有限,不用自己歸類,可以直接買人家已經歸類好的同義詞、反義詞的單詞書來背,也是有用的。貌似新東方有一本這樣的書,書名不記得了。好像就是同義詞、反義詞一類的。
9.關于為考試而進行寫作練習時的兩個小建議
A。嚴格用計時器掐時間。用計時器掐時間主要是為了提高自己的寫作速度,因為考場上風
云變幻莫測,萬一出現什么事故,導致自己寫作速度下降,后果不堪設想。所以從最一開始練習的時候,如果人家規定45分鐘寫完,那么我一般給自己掐的時間是30分鐘;如果要求30分鐘寫完,那么我一般給自己掐的時間是18分鐘,以此類推。更多信息請訪問:http:///
B。做抗干擾練習??垢蓴_練習尤其在托福和GRE考試中非常有用。因為大家都在不同的時間開始寫,你寫的時候,很有可能旁邊有人在向老師要鉛筆,問時間,進進出出之類的,對你造成很大影響??荚嚨臅r候人的精神本來就很敏感,加上他們的折騰,免不了自己本來要寫的東西被忘掉。所以一定要進行抗干擾練習。之前你每天寫的時候,就要開始干擾自己,比如邊寫作,邊帶著耳機聽音樂,或者邊寫作,邊放著一段英文新聞,或者邊寫作,邊聽音樂,邊放新聞,邊放電影。后來有一次很搞笑,在考GRE前幾天,打算寫最后一篇文章來練習,打開了各種抗干擾的東西,音樂,新聞,和電影,正寫得激動的時候,電影里傳來男女主角造人的聲音,但當時也可以泰然自若地敲字而絲毫不受影響了。:)
