Answer 1

分析 本文是一篇提綱作文，要求根據(jù)所給的信息給Susan寫一封電子郵件，介紹中國(guó)的清明節(jié)．根據(jù)提示的信息可知，文章應(yīng)從清明節(jié)的由來(lái)、人們?cè)谇迕鞴?jié)的活動(dòng)等幾個(gè)方面入手．寫作時(shí)要充分發(fā)揮想象，適當(dāng)?shù)奶砑幼约旱挠^點(diǎn)，使文章內(nèi)容豐滿，并達(dá)到要求的字?jǐn)?shù)．此外，為了提高文章檔次，還要注意使用多種句式和高級(jí)詞匯，并添加關(guān)聯(lián)詞讓行文流暢．
【亮點(diǎn)說(shuō)明】本篇書面表達(dá)格式規(guī)范，語(yǔ)言流暢．第一、二段概括了清明節(jié)的歷史；第三段介紹了清明節(jié)在農(nóng)業(yè)方面的意義；第四段詢問(wèn)對(duì)方如何祭奠祖先．本文的亮點(diǎn)是運(yùn)用了復(fù)雜的句式如定語(yǔ)從句，被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)等，提升了文章的檔次；date back、in a way 等結(jié)構(gòu)的運(yùn)用也為文章增添了亮色．

When visiting the tombs of their lost loved ones，people usually sweep away the dirt and get rid of any weeds．（高分句型三）

點(diǎn)評(píng) 英語(yǔ)寫作是一項(xiàng)主觀性較強(qiáng)的測(cè)試題．它不僅考查學(xué)生的寫作基礎(chǔ)而且還考查學(xué)生在寫作過(guò)程中綜合運(yùn)用語(yǔ)言的能力．在撰寫時(shí)要注意主謂語(yǔ)一致，時(shí)態(tài)呼應(yīng)，用詞貼切等．要提高英語(yǔ)寫作水平，需要兩方面的訓(xùn)練：一是語(yǔ)言基礎(chǔ)方面的訓(xùn)練，要有扎實(shí)的造句、翻譯等基本功，即用詞法、句法等知識(shí)造出正確無(wú)誤的句子；二是寫作知識(shí)和能力 方面的訓(xùn)練以掌握寫作方面的基本方法和技巧．
