Hello,大家好!我是北大的刘天娇!每天与您相约!由于平时我特别喜欢与同学们讨论学习上的问题,所以大家都喜欢叫我“爱学习的小仙女”。
英语作文的开头的好坏对整个作文的评分都重要的影响,那么英语作文怎样开头才能瞬间打动阅卷老师?今天小仙女就为大家整理了北大学霸们惯用的开篇方式!
在此之前,让我们先来欣赏一下一些文学巨匠的开篇,看看他们是如何开篇的。
《安娜·卡列尼娜》列夫·托尔斯泰
幸福的家庭总是相似的,而不幸的家庭则各有各的不幸。
All happy families are happy alike, all unhappy families are unhappy in their own way。
《双城记》查尔斯·狄更斯
这是最美好的时代,这是最糟糕的时代;这是智慧的年头,这是愚昧的年头;这是信仰的时期,这是怀疑的时期;这是光明的季节,这是黑暗的季节;这是希望之春,这是失望之冬。我们的前途拥有一切,我们的前途一无所有;我们正走向天堂,我们也正直下地狱。
It was the best of times, it was the worst of times. It was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness. It was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity. It was the season of light, it was the season of darkness. It was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair. We had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to heaven, we were all going direct the other way.
《傲慢与偏见》简?奥斯汀
凡是有钱的单身汉,总想娶位太太,这已经成了一条举世公认的真理。
It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possessing of a good fortune must be in want of a wife.
《老人与海》欧内斯特?海明威
他是个独自在湾流中一条小船上钓鱼的老人,至今已了84天,一条鱼也没逮住。
He was an old man who fished alone in a skiff in the Gulf Stream and he had gone 84 days now without taking a fish.
《再见,柏林》克里斯多福?伊薛伍德
我是一台被动的相机,开着快门只记录不思考。
I am a camera with its shutter open, quite passive, recording, not thinking.
《墨菲》塞缪尔?贝克特
太阳照常升起,一切都没有改变。
The sun shone, having no alternative, on the nothing new.
《变形记》弗兰兹?卡夫卡
一天早晨,格里高尔?萨姆沙从不安的睡梦中醒来,发现自己躺在床上变成了一只巨大的甲虫。
As Gregor Samsa awoke one morning from uneasy dreams he found himself transformed in his bed into a gigantic insect.
《彼得潘》詹姆斯?马修?巴利
所有的孩子都长大,只有一个例外。
All children, except one, grow up.
模仿是好的写作的开始,其实写作时有一些技巧可以学习的,我们可以尝试一下下面的技巧:
“开门见山”式
一般来说,文章的开头应尽量做到“开门见山”,即要用简单明了的语言引出文章的话题,使人一开始就能了解文章要说明的内容。
1、对于叙事类的文章,可以在开头把人物、时间、事件和环境交代清楚。
如“A Trip to Huangshan(黄山之旅)”的开头可以是:Last month, my family went to Huangshan by train. It took us ten hours to get there. What a long and tiring journey! We were tired but the beautiful scenery excited us.
2、对于论述性的文章,可以在开头处先阐明自己的观点,接着展开进一步的论述。
如“The Time and the Money (时间和金钱)” 的开头可以是:Most people say that money is more important than time. But I don't think so. First, when money is used up, you can earn it back, but……
回忆性开头
在描述事件或游记类的文章中,采用回忆性的开头往往更能吸引人的眼球。
这种类型的开头中通常含有描述自己心情或情绪的词汇,如never forget(永远无法忘记)、 remember (记得)、unforgettable(难以忘怀的)、 exciting(令人激动的)、surprising(令人惊讶的)、sad (难过的)……
如“A Trip to Huangshan(黄山之旅)”的开头还以这样写:I will never forget my first trip to Huangshan. 或 It was really an unforgettable experience I had.
疑问性开头
在叙事类或论述性的文章中,都可采用疑问型开头,这样既可以吸引阅卷者的注意又容易抓住中心。
如“Planting Trees(种树)”的开头可以是:Have you ever planted trees? Don't you think planting trees is ……
再如“Traveling Abroad(出国之旅)”的开头可以是:If you have an opportunity to travel abroad, why not consider Singapore?
倒叙式开头
在有的文章,特别是叙事类的文章中,可以采用倒叙的写作手法,先写出事件的结果,再陈述过程。
如“Catching Thieves (捉贼)”的开头可以这样写:I lay in bed in the hospital. I smiled at my friends even though my legs hurt. Do you want to know what happened to me? Let me tell you. It's a ... story.
