现在让我们一起讨论看看如何用英语表达“目的”。
一般来说英语中有许多表达“目的”的方式,
如:使用to不定式
这些都可以表达:“我们(某人)为什么做某事”/“(作为结果)某人可以做或者不能做某事”
如:“我们在花园里建了一个泳池,孩子们可以在热天里游泳了。”
那么是否还有其他方式表达“目的”或者“一个行为导致其他行为的发生”呢?
答案是肯定的。
在第二段里有这么一句话:
在这里可以看到…designed to teach sb. about sth.
就是表达一件事情的“目的”。
在“designed”前面的一件事将会导致“to”后面事情的发生。
所以这里的主干结构是:
让我们来使用这个结构。
如当我们讨论“网购的重要性”时,我们可以说:
还可以“教”什么呢?还有其他的“目的”吗?
当然还可以“教”一些内容,如:
“网购时如何省时省力。”
“如何告别费力的搜索。”
“如何通过产品图片和网站介绍进行网购。”
“如何分清网店的信誉度。”
当讨论“理财”时,我们可以说:
“他们对18岁左右的孩子推销特别理财项目,
旨在教他们学会理财和存钱。”
当我们讨论“如何避免过度消费”/“如何控制购物欲”的时候,
我们可以说:“他们对16岁左右的女性推销特别消费项目,
旨在教育她们避免产生过度消费或购物狂行为。”
句型结构是综合写作技巧中的一个重要元素。
它甚至比词汇选择更为重要。
使用不当的词就像漏掉的节拍,而糟糕的句型则是全盘走调,
它会破坏文章的流畅性,使读者困惑不解、无法深入阅读。
句子是有逻辑关系的结构。
句子是最简单的学习文本。
能构建好句型的学生往往能写出最好的作文。
要想学会漂亮的句子,方法之一就是从好句子中借鉴好句型。
然而,要想提高句型写作能力,还需提高思维能力。
一个构造精美的句子不仅需要良好的读写能力,
更需提高思维的质量。
正如勒莫夫说过的那样:
“教学生书写复杂精巧、细致入微的句子,
就是在教他们提高复杂精巧、细致入微的思考能力。”
这节所学到的句型会帮助大家构建句子。
句型构建能迫使学生用一种细致具体的方式来思考文本。
接触更多类似这样的句型结构后,
学生们可以选择最为恰当的一种句型来精确地表述某个概念。
当然学习句型结构仅是学好写作的第一步,
要提高写作水平,还有一大堆的东西要学。
一定记得多多练习!练习、练习、练习!
这会帮助你提高句子写作水平。
仿写优美的句子:手写100个精美的句子,
把句型结构背下来并仔细分析,
反复练习直到能够自由使用。
不要放弃!继续埋头苦干吧!
