2014考研英語寫作指導：作文出題的題材類型_跨考網(wǎng)

　　從歷年作文試題的出題范圍來分析，其題材一般均貼近生活，要求寫作的知識范圍均為考生所熟悉，容易取材，具有一定可寫性。但寫作形式均為控制性寫作，題材類型分為幾類：標題作文、提綱作文、圖表作文、規(guī)定情景式作文及綜合型作文等。

? ?例如：一、主題句作文

　　主句作文也稱為段首句作文，要求考生在每段所給主題句基礎上加以擴展，完成段落，再由段落組成文章。主題句作文是目前較常用的一種出題方式，它不像一般正規(guī)文章那樣要求具有開頭段和結尾段，一般只給出三句主題句，所以屬于一種簡單的三段式作文。

　　Example 1

　　Title: Dictionary……

　　(1) The dictionary is a living teacher

　　(2) Skills will develop with your constant use of various dictionaries. ……

　　(3) But you should have one thing in mind……

　　Dictionary

　　The dictionary is living teacher. Whenever you come across a new word, just consult it and you will get a clear definition. Every student, whether attending school or self-taught, should always have a dictionary at hand. As a study aid, it is convenient, inexpensive and all-knowing.

　　Skills will develop with your constant use of various dictionaries The more you use them, the more familiar you will become with them. Sooner or later, you will be quite skilled in finding the page, scanning the entries and locating the exact meaning of the new words.

　　But you should have one thing mind. As a language student, you should never depend too much on dictionaries. Basic language skill do not come from dictionaries, but from your practice. Learn the language by listening, speaking, reading and writing more, and that is the only way to the mastery of a language.

　　Example2

　　(1) The computer is a wonderful machine
