近几年年的考研英语作文,不外乎考图画、图表,而且题目要求都是三点:
01
简要描述图画、图表
02
大致解释图画、图表
03
发表观点,进行评论
写作思路
1.写作要点:“三步走”
首段:主要就是描述图片,从图片描述的细节中推导出文章的主题。这种对图片进行描述,并给出自己理解的方法叫作现象阐释法。现象阐释法是考研大作文首段最常用的一种方法。
先描述图片,然后由对图片的描写过渡到个人观点的陈述或者图片内涵的提出这两个部分至关重要。
中间段又称主旨段,作用一般是揭示图画内涵,并对图画的内涵进行分析、论证。 中间段首先要写好主题句。考研大作文里面,主旨段的主题句就是图画的内涵,或者由图画提炼出来的观点。
末段的作用一般是总结全文,照应题目,点明主旨,深化中心。简洁、有力的末段可以为文章锦上添花。末段的写作可尝试使用以下四种方法:归纳总结法、名言引用法、提出建议法、预测展望法。
首段

示例
1. 小肉为整体描图,切记不要描述细节;
Depicted in these two cartoons above is a flower showing different states in two entirely distinct conditions.
写作要点
此句开篇,结构至关重要,此处用倒装句描图,Depicted in these two cartoons above is+图片核心元素+分词短语修饰。
2.多汁大肉 为细节描述,灵活使用从句、分词以及修饰词让描图丰满
As is shown in the first picture, the flower, placed in a comfortable greenhouse which shelters it from the threatening storm, is in full bloom. On the contrary, when exposed to the heavy rain, the flower soon fades and withers, with petals falling on the ground.
写作要点
As is shown in the first picture在所有的模板书均可找到,因此千万不要放在第一句,但是如此漂亮的As引导的定语从句不用岂不可惜,因此调整顺序,放在第二句即可,显示出你支配语言的能力。2003年为两幅图(今年的重点复习方向),因此要注意两幅图之间的对比关系,用on the contrary强调句间关系。其中分词作状语、定语从句、独立主格皆可以用于其他文章,举一反三。
中间段
中间段首先要写好主题句。考研大作文里面,主旨段的主题句就是图画的内涵,或者由图画提炼出来的观点。
主题句是概括段落中心思想、反映写作意图的概括性句子,是段落的核心,因此写好主题句是写好段落的前提。写主题句时,要注意以下两点:
01
段落主题句的内容应丰满,切忌空洞。
一个段落的信息容量是有限的,如果主题句限定的范围太笼统,其内容就难以在一个段落中阐述清楚。
例如:
The relationship is depressing.看到这个话题,我们禁不住会问什么样的关系,沮丧到了何种程度,这都很难界定,让人无从下手。
我们可以改写为:
The relationship between parents and children is more depressing compared with decades ago.
02
段落主题句应有展开的空间,不宜太具体。段落主题句限定范围太窄不利于段落展开论述。
例如:Going to college, one can make friends.看到这个句子的时候,相信大部分考生会有句子已经把话说完的感觉。原因是这个主题句限定的范围太窄了。
我们可以改成:
Going to college, one can learn more and thus make more suitable friends.
写好主题句,接下来就是对主题句进行论证了。
一般来讲,真正决定作文表达效果的还是中间段。为了紧扣题意,增强表达效果, 中间段的写作可采用以下三种方法:因果论证法、对比法、举例法。
1
因果论证法
因果论证法是给出一个论点,并从不同的几个方面分条列举原因或者影响的方法。因果论证法常用的素材有:
引出原因:
