黑龙江省大庆市铁人中学2018-2019学年高一上学期英语期中考试试卷
Many people think that English writing is difficult. Here are some great writing tips that will help you improve your writing in a short time.
Don't ramble(长篇大论). This is a very common mistake made by people who have poor writing skills. When they ramble, they are not paying attention to grammar. As a result, their sentences become very long. If you know you have poor grammar, use short sentences.
Think about each sentence carefully to make sure that it is correct before moving on. It's better to write a short passage that is easy to read and mistake-free than to write a long article that is filled with grammar mistakes.
Increase your vocabulary. If you don't have a large vocabulary, you will find it difficult to write as you can't find right words to express yourself clearly. The solution (解决办法) to this problem is to increase your vocabulary. You can do this by reading the local newspapers daily, borrowing books from the library or watching English programs.
Don't write when you are tired. Tiredness can lead to nothing to write. If you find yourself looking at a blank piece of paper with nothing to write, don't just sit there! Take a walk or a warm shower, or simply lie down to get some rest. You'll find that you'll enjoy your writing a lot more and make fewer mistakes!
A. Find out the mistakes you've made.
B. Make sure your sentences are correct.
C. You can pick up new words almost anywhere.
D. Write what interests you most in the beginning.
E. As a result, they may give up after trying hard for a while.
F. The longer the sentences are, the more mistakes they'll make.
G. When your mind is relaxed, you should go back to your writing.
