1、公共英语(PETS)写作指导：开头写作技巧1首先，我们为考生介绍两种经典的开头方法：1 开头技巧一：名人名言开头引用名人不仅能够作为很好的切入点展开话题，而且还能够显示考生深厚的英语功底。可能有的考生会疑惑：“我没有记住名言，怎么办？尤其是英语名言？”一般来说，引用名人名言不一定要记住每个单词才行。 如果考生能够记住大致的内容，也可以引用。引用名人名言的经典句型：A proverb says, “you are only young once.” （适用于已记住的名言）It goes without saying that we cannot be young forever. （适用于只记住
2、大致意思的名言）更多经典句型：As everyone knows, no one can deny that我们为考生总结了一些考生常用的名人名言，附在本节后面，供考生记忆使用。2 开头技巧二：数字统计要想使自己的论证更有说服力，就应该用实际的数字来说明。原则上在议论文当中十不应该出现虚假数字的，可是在考试考生只需要记住一个大概得数据即可。所以不妨试用下面的句型：A ccording to a recent survey, about 78.9% of the college students wanted to further their study after their graduati
3、on.更多句型：A recent statistics shows that 除以上两种特殊用法以外，我们为考生整理了以下开头常用句型，供考生参考：文章开头句型：1 对立法 : 先引出其他人的不同看法,然后提出自己的看法或者偏向于某一看法,适用于有争议性的主题.例如1） When asked about., the vast/overwhelming majority of people say that .

Options of . vary greatly, some ., others .But in my opinion, . .（二）主体段落的写作原则作文的主体部分是全文文字最密集的地方，也是最彰显考生功底的地方，于是，我们总结出了关于主体段落写作的几个原则，考生在平时练习时，注意体会掌握。1. 长短句原则中国考生语法功底普遍很好，因此，在写作文时，很容易出现长句堆积的现象。但是，这样很容易使得文章枯燥乏
12、味，读起来费解。相反，写一个短小精辟的句子，却可以起到画龙点睛的作用。而且，如果我们把短句放在段首或者段末，也可以揭示主题：As a creature, I eat; as a man, I read. Although one action is to meet the primary need of my body and the other is to satisfy the intellectual need of mind, they are in a way quite similar.如此可见，长短句结合，抑扬顿挫，更能够使文章文采飞扬。在这里我们强烈建议考生：在文章第一段（开头
13、）用一长一短，且先长后短；在文章主体部分，要先用一个短句解释主要意思，然后在阐述几个要点的时候采用先短后长的句群形式，定会让主体部分妙笔生辉。文章结尾一般用一长一短就可以了。2. 主题句原则英文写作和中文写作的一个很大的区别在于：中文写作喜欢水到渠成，只有在最后才透露观点，然而英文写作往往却开门见山，在文章的段首就讲明白整段的内容。所以在这里建一靠赊概念一定要写一个主题句，放在文章的开头（保险型）或者结尾，让阅卷人一目了然，文章结构更加清晰。特别提示：隐藏主体句可是要冒险的。To begin with, you must work hard at your lessons and be fully prepared before the exam（主题句）. Without sufficient preparation, you can hardly expect to answer all the questions correctly.
