学习英语造句的方法

写作是英语听、说、读、写、译五项综合能力中不可缺少的一项技能,它对学生英语整体水平提高起到一种促进作用。英语界的专家曾指出,只有写作水平才能真正反映一个人的语言修养。在英语学习中,造句作为一种训练方式能够使学习者辨析词语的准确含义,理解词汇的准确用法,提高语言表达能力和用英语思维的能力.

  一. 词的灵活多变

英语的词汇可能是所有语言中最丰富的,据说有100万左右。世界上单词量最大的是二战时期的英国首相丘吉尔,大约6万左右,莎士比亚创作使用的词汇有2万左右。不过我们日常生活中使用的单词,也就几千而已。尽管如此,我们也尽可以尽情发挥,信手拈来,达到左右逢源,运用自如的境地。英语中的“好”,除“good”外,还有fine, OK, nice, great, excellent, wonderful, terrific, fabulous, fantastic, marvelous, splendid, extraordinary, outstanding, incredible 及amazing 等多种表达方式。另外,“死亡”一词,除了“die”之外,还有pass away等80多种表达方式!

下面我们再以“很”、“非常”为例来做详细说明:

She is very happy. 她十分高兴。

I’m terribly sorry. 实在抱歉。

The movie was pretty good. 那部电影非常精彩。

He was most kind to me. 他对我非常亲切。

We were greatly shocked at the news. 听到消息我们大为震惊。

Thanks awfully for your help. 非常感谢你的帮助。

This story is highly significant. 这个故事很有意义。

I badly want to change my job. 我很想跳槽。

The boss felt quite pleased with my work. 老板对我的工作很满意。

I felt totally exhausted by the time I got home. 我到家时累到了极点。

  二. 短语的灵活多变

英语中的短语也是非常丰富的,如“关于”除了“about, on, concerning”等这些单词外,还有多种短语表现形式,如as to, as concerns, as regards, with/in regard to, with respect to, in respect of/to, in/with relation to, in terms of等。下面以“喜欢”为例,看一下其短语表现形式。

Many football fans are crazy about Beckham.

许多球迷都疯狂迷上了贝克汉姆。

She has a passion for rock music.

她热爱摇滚乐。

She has a great enthusiasm for personal computers.

  三. 句型的灵活多变

如表达“一……就……”,除了最常见的as soon as 外, 还有“hardly…when…, no sooner…than…, soon/shortly after…”及“the moment/instant…”等多种表达方式。下面我们再看一下“我认为……”的不同表现方式。

I think you are right.

我认为你是对的。

我觉得你迟早能成功。

I guess you have made a right choice.

我感觉你的选择是对的。

在我看来买彩票是浪费钱。

我认为大学英语四六级考试应该取消。

  四. 句式的灵活多变

以下一些句式,可以交替互换使用,从而加强句子的丰富多样性和文章的表现力。

1. 主动与被动

We must take some effective measures to stop pollution.

Some effective measures must be taken to stop pollution.

我们必须采取有效措施来治理污染。

2. 陈述与感叹

What a pleasant surprise you gave me!

3. 正常与倒装

4. 普通与强调

5. 简单句与复合句

6. 简单句与并列句

He and I help each other.

我和他互相帮助。

7. 简单句与复合句

The old man wants a small but comfortable room.

The old man wants a room that is small but comfortable.

那位老人想要一间小但舒服的房间。

8. 并列句与复合句

She did her work carefully and she never made any mistakes.

Because she did her work carefully, she never made any mistakes.

由于工作仔细,她从来都不犯错误。

另外,还可以尝试以下两条方法,来提升句子的质量:

  五. 使用非人物主语起草句子

受顽强汉语思维的影响,中国学生极易使用与人有关的名词或代词开头造句,如“I, We, People”等等。事实上,我们完全可以独辟蹊径、标新立异,选择以事物开头而表达同样的意思。请对比以下两组句子:

I thought of a great idea when I woke up this morning.

A great idea occurred to me when I woke up this morning.

今天早上起床时我想到了一个好主意。

They didn’t come because of the bad weather.

The bad weather prevented them from coming.

由于糟糕的天气,他们没能来。

She began to cry.

Tears came to her eyes.

她哭了起来。

I like listening to cross talk.

Cross talk appeals to me.

我喜欢听相声。

I couldn’t say anything.

Words failed me.

我说不出话来。

很明显,每一组的后一个句子要比前者更生动、更形象、更精彩。

  六. 使用非主语成分起草句子

这一条建议听起来更苛刻,因为我们“主语开头”的单一表达模式已经根深蒂固,很难改变和突破。然而,只要你刻意模仿,用心努力,获得地道的英语思维也不是不可能的。请看以下句子:

Generally speaking, men are stronger than women.

一般说来,男子比妇女强壮。

长话短说,他们最后找到了那个失踪的男孩。

山顶上矗立着一座壮观的塔。

他果然说话算数,按时来了。

Every now and then he went to the net café.

他不时地去网吧。

由于位于沿海,这个城市交通便利。

如果从以上几个方面去留心、注意并刻意培养,你的写作水平一定会有意想不到的提高。
