近年来,伴随着英语教学改革的快速推进和新教材推行计划的全面实施,学生的听说读写都要得到较大的改善。听和读是语言的输入,说和写是语言的输出。而写是听说读写四种技能中要求较高的能力,也是能直接反映学生语言水平的一种技能。然而,看看有些学生的文章特别是农村学生的英语作文实在是不容乐观。主要表现在语言错误多,上下文衔接过渡不自然,书写不工整,中式英文随处可见;内容上信息点不足、整篇布局不合理等等。作为初中英语教师,我们怎么去帮助学生提高英语书面表达水平呢?笔者在教学实践中,就如何提高英语写作能力做了一些尝试,现谈几点自己的认识,权做抛砖引玉之用。 In recent years, along with the rapid progress of English teaching reform and the full implementation of the new teaching plan, students’ listening, speaking, reading and writing needs to be greatly improved. Listening and reading are language input, speaking and writing are the output of language. Writing is the ability to read and write the four skills required, but also a skill that directly reflects the language proficiency of students. However, it is not optimistic to look at some students’ essays, especially those written by rural students. Mainly in the wrong language, the context of the convergence of the transition is not natural, the writing does not work whole Chinese and English everywhere; lack of information on the content, the entire layout is not reasonable and so on. As a junior high school English teacher, how do we help students to improve their English written expression? In the teaching practice, the author made some attempts on how to improve the ability of English writing. Now I talk about my own understanding and right to make a start.
