分析你的文章　　检查列表　　写作建议

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　分析你的文章 
                          对于一个作者来说，难点之一就是在其作文完成评估并经过打分之后的再次审阅。然而，成功的修改要求你细心留意文章的每一方面，并对其水平做出评价。为了有效修改你将需要尽可能客观地评估你的作文。在分析过程中有三个最重要的问题：

                            ● 我有没有扣紧主题？

                            ● 我有没有对其做出具有说服力的论证？

                            ● 对句子结构和语言的运用是否有效?
我有没有扣紧主题？

                            在写一篇题目已给定的文章时，把注意力集中在写作本身和对题目所涉及的各个方面　进行分析是很重要的。要问问自己：

                            ● 我是否弄懂了我要写什么？

                            ● 这个论题要求我做的是不是不只这一件事呢？(比方说：有些题目要求你去区分去阐述，或者树立自己的立场并用论据去论证它。要搞清楚你要表达的论题的各个方面。)
我有没有对其做出具有说服力的论证？

                            一旦你已确定论证方法且已经圈定了文章的语句范围，你就可开始着重在话题的拓展以及论证主题的各种想法的组织上下功夫。试着问问自己:

                            ● 我是否有大量论证论点的论据？

                            ● 我是否对一些关键词语，观点和想法做出阐述、探讨以便使读者更好地理解我在表达的意思?

                            ● 对主要观点的论证、阐述和澄清，我是否有列举实例、讲道理？
注意：你所表达的每一观点至少应有一个句子对其说明、阐述并解释。对一些深奥的、复杂的观点就得有相应更深、更多的论述展开。 
                            

                            ● 我的文章是否有一个清楚、有逻辑的句型结构？是否包括开端、高潮和结尾？

                            ● 我是否加入了一些承上启下的词语、句子和段落以使文章更有紧密感？是否运用一些过渡词和词组以便削弱差距并指出倾向角度和观点？
对句子结构和语言的运用是否有效?　

                            我们都听说过这句话："问题的关键不是你要说什么；而是你怎样说。"分析你的文章时，要注意正确运用那些为了表达思想而写的句子和挑选的词语。不妨问问自己以下三个问题：

                            ● 我在表达思想时是否运用了所有句型？（简单句、并列句、复合句、多层次复合句）是否把长句和短句结合在一起？　 
                            

                            ● 我是否检查了句子的语法？主语和谓语是否一致？代词运用是否正确？

                            ● 句子的标点符号用得是否正确？
注意：在修改你的文章时，懂得如何运用起强调作用的短句和用来传达深奥思想的复合句是两个很好的技巧。

                            ● 我是否选择了最合适的词和词组来表达我的思想？

                            ● 词语的运用是否正确？例如：文章中的词语是否用得恰如其分？是否适当起作用了？

                            ● 在题目和正文中我是否囊括了不归则动词和同义词？我是否多次重复运用了有些词和词组？
最后但并非不重要的一点…

                            ● 我是否正确校对了文章的拼写、标点符号和大小写？


                            

                            Analyzing Your Essay
One of the most difficult tasks for 
                            a writer is to read an essay after it has been evaluated 
                            or graded. Yet, successful revision requires that 
                            you look carefully at each aspect of your writing 
                            and make judgments about its quality. In order to 
                            revise effectively you will need to evaluate as objectively 
                            as possible what you have written. The three most 
                            important questions to ask during the analyzing process 
                            are:
·Have I addressed the topic?
·Have I developed a convincing response?
·Have I used sentence structure and 
                            language effectively?
Have I addressed the topic?
When you write an essay response to 
                            an assigned topic, it is important to stay focused 
                            on the writing task and to analyze all aspects of 
                            the topic. Ask these questions:
·Do I understand what I’ve been asked 
                            to do?
·Does the topic ask me to do more than 
                            one thing? (For example, some topics ask you to identify 
                            and explain, or to take a position and support your 
                            point of view with evidence. Make sure that you address 
                            all parts of the topic.)
Have I developed a convincing response?
Once you have taken an approach to a 
                            topic and have narrowed your thesis statement, you 
                            can begin to focus on the development and organization 
                            of ideas that support your point of view. Ask these 
                            questions:
·Do I have several points that support 
                            and develop my thesis? 
·Have I defined or explored key words, 
                            concepts, and ideas to give the reader a clear understanding 
                            of the points I am developing?
·Have I provided an example or reason 
                            to support, illustrate, or clarify my main points?
NOTE: Every main point that you present 
                            deserves more than one sentence to define, illustrate, 
                            or explain it. Sophisticated and complex ideas may 
                            require even more development.
·Does my essay have a clear and logical 
                            pattern of organization? Does it contain a beginning, 
                            middle, and end?
·Have I incorporated transitional words 
                            and phrases to help my sentences and paragraphs stick 
                            together? Have I used transitional words and phrases 
                            to bridge gaps and point out changes in direction 
                            or point of view?
Have I used sentence structure and language 
                            effectively?
We have all heard the expression, “It’s 
                            not just what you say; it’s how you say it.” As you 
                            analyze your essay, pay attention to the kinds of 
                            sentences you have written and the words you have 
                            selected to convey your ideas effectively. Ask these 
                            questions:
·Have I used all of the sentence types 
                            (simple, compound, complex, and compound-complex) 
                            in expressing my ideas? Do I have a combination of 
                            long and short sentences?
·Have I checked the grammar in my sentences? 
                            Do subjects and verbs agree? Is the correct pronoun 
                            used? 
·Have I punctuated my sentences correctly? 
                          
NOTE: Knowing how to use a short sentence 
                            for emphasis and a complex sentence to convey a sophisticated 
                            idea are two good skills to practice as you revise 
                            your essay.
·Have I selected the most appropriate 
                            words and phrases to communicate my ideas? 
·Have I used words correctly? For example, 
                            are the words affect and effect used correctly in 
                            my essay?
·Have I included strong verbs and synonyms 
                            for words in the topic or assignment? Have I repeated 
                            words and phrases too many times? 
Last but not least . . .
·Did I proofread my essay for correct 
                            spelling, punctuation, and capitalization

ADVICE TO WRITERS

TOEFL

A well-written essay clearly communicates your message or ideas to a reader.

Be sure your essay clearly relates to your writing task, and identifies the topic and/or explains your point of view on an issue.

Use appropriate, specific details to support your thesis or to develop your ideas. These may include:

·facts, dates, or names

·specific examples or personal experience

·explanations or descriptions

·quotations or paraphrases

Think about the best way to organize your paper:

· Begin with an introduction that states your thesis or main idea.

· Use a body that presents at least two main points to support your thesis.

· End with a conclusion that restates the answer to the question and sums up the main points in the body.

Use the English language appropriately by making sure you have:

· made appropriate word choices

· used the correct form of the word

· put words in the correct order

Be sure to proofread your essay for errors in:

·sentence formation

·grammar

·punctuation

·capitalization

·spelling

标点符号　　遗漏大小写　　非独立句　　片　段　　拼写错误　　普遍容易混淆的词

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　标点符号

用来结束句子的标点符号有三种：句号，感叹号和问号。

句号
●用来结束除直接疑问句或感叹句之外的所有句子(如陈述句、祈使句等)。如：
When Connie arrived, the party began.
康妮到时，晚会已经开始了。
●也可用于间接疑问句中。如:
The Governor asked whether he should increase state taxes.
州长问他是否应该增加国税。

问号
●用在直接问句之后。如：
What time does the picnic start?
野餐什么时候开始？
●间接疑问句不需用问号。如：
Cindy asked me what time the picnic start.
辛迪问我野餐什么时候开始。

感叹号
●放在句尾，表示强烈的情感或情绪；或表示强调。如：
That was a fabulous performance!
那可真是一场精彩的表演!
★用感叹号能使句子更醒目，但是千万不要在你的作文中滥用感叹号。

PUNCTUATION:

Three punctuation marks appear at the end of sentences: period, exclamation point, and question mark.

Period
Use a period to end all sentences except direct questions or exclamations.

When Connie arrived, the party began.

A period is also used at the end of an indirect question.

The Governor asked whether he should increase state taxes.

Question Mark
Use a question mark after a direct question.

What time does the picnic start?

An indirect question does not require a question mark.

Cindy asked me what time the picnic started.

Exclamation Point
Use an exclamation point after a sentence that expresses feeling or requires emphasis.

That was a fabulous performance!

Use an exclamation point to make a sentence stand out. Avoid overusing the exclamation point in your writing.

标点符号　　遗漏大小写　　非独立句　　片　段　　拼写错误　　普遍容易混淆的词

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　遗漏大小写

句子开头第一个字母要大小写，这是书面英语的最基本原则。所以在检查或校对文章时，一定要确保所有句子都是大写字母开头的。

另外有几组词，不管放在句子的任何地方都要大写首字母，如下所示：

● 专有（特殊）名称，　如：　
Elm Street（榆树街)　
Honda（本田汽车）

● 人的姓名，如：
Susan B. Anthony (苏珊 ·安东尼)
President Bush (布什总统)
Aunt Louise (路易丝姑妈)
Jones　(琼斯)

● 地理名称，如：
Chinatown (华人街)
Africa (非洲)

● 机构和组织单位，如：
Howard University ( 哈佛大学)
National Council of Teachers of English (英语教师全国理事会)
Democratic Party (民主党)　
Girl Scouts of America (美国女童子军)

● 历史事件、重要日子、月份和节日，如：
Labor day (劳动节)
August (八月)
Fourth of July (美国国庆日)

● 语言种类和相应的形容词，如：
French (法国)
Asian (亚洲的)

● 标题，如：
The New York Times (纽约时报)
The Tale of Two Cities (双城记)
"Ode on a Grecian Urn"

Missing Capitalization:

One of the basic rules of written English is to capitalize the first word of every sentence. When you proofread and edit your essay, be sure to indicate the beginning of a sentence by using a capital letter.

Here are some other groups of words that should be capitalized wherever they appear in a sentence:

· Specific names
Elm Street
Honda

· Names of people
Susan B. Anthony
President Bush
Aunt Louise
Jose

· Geographical Areas
Chinatown
Africa
West Coast

· Institutions and Organizations
Howard University
ational Council of Teachers of English
Democratic Party
Girl Scouts of America

· Historical Events, Days, Months, and Holidays
Labor Day
August
Fourth of July

· Languages and Proper Adjectives
French
Asian

· Titles
The New York Times
The Tale of Two Cities
"Ode on a Grecian Urn

标点符号　　遗漏大小写　　非独立句　　片　段　　拼写错误　　普遍容易混淆的词

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　非独立句

"非独立句"是由两个或两以上的句子组合在一起的句子。要搞清楚什么是"非独立句"之前，我们有必要知道什么是"独立句"。
一个"独立句"是由一组能表达一个完整意思的词语组成的句子。下面的例句就是一个"独立句"，或说一个完整的句子：
Mark is a good student at his school.
马克在学校是一个好学生。

当两个或两个以上的"独立句"放在一起时，它们需用一个逗号和一个并列连词如：（and, but, or not, for, so yet）连接起来。下面这个例句，就是由两个子句恰当组合在一起的。

Mark is a good student at his school, and he is a talented musician.
马克在学校是一个好学生，他又是一个有天赋的音乐家。

另外一种联接方式是通过用分号来完成的。如：
Mark is a good student at his school; his teachers always encourage him.
马克在学校是一个好学生，且他的老师也总是鼓励他。

"非独立句"的两个最常见错误是"逗号合成法"和"一气呵成法"。
"逗号合成法"是指两个或两个以上的子句合在一起时，只用逗号而没有并列连词。如：
　　Sometimes I come home from school with lots of homework, when there is a TV show
　　that I want to watch I won't get my homework done.
　　有时我回家还得做大量的家庭作业，加上有我喜欢看的电视节目我就没法完成了。

这个句子就是只用逗号连接的"非独立句"。要修改这个句子，你可以加一个并列连词。如下所示：
　　Sometimes I come home from school with lots of homework, and when there is a TV
　　show that I want to watch I won't get my homework done.

"一气呵成法"是指多个子句合在一起时，没并列连词也没有逗号。如：
　　I don't like to buy my lunch at school the lines are too long I end up getting
　　chips and a drink.
　　我不喜欢在学校买午餐，排队太长以致于我最后只能买到一些土豆片和一瓶饮料。

此句的修改方法是：拆开这个句子，或用逗号和一个并列连词把它隔开。如：
　　I don't like to buy my lunch at school. The lines are too long, and I end up
　　getting chips and a drink.

Run-On Sentences

Run-on sentences contain two or more independent clauses that are joined incorrectly. Before you can understand run-on sentences, it is important to know about independent clauses.

An independent clause is a group of words that can stand alone as a complete sentence. Here is an example of an independent clause, or a complete sentence:

Mark is a good student at his school.

When two or more independent clauses appear together, they need to be joined by using a comma and a coordinating conjunction (and, but, or nor, for, so yet). Here is an example of two independent clauses that are joined correctly:

Mark is a good student at his school, and he is a talented musician.

Another way to join two independent clauses is by using a semi-colon. Here is an example:

Mark is a good student at his school; his teachers always encourage him.

The two most common run-on sentence errors are comma splices and fused sentences.

A comma splice occurs when two or more independent clauses are joined with commas and with no coordinating conjunction. Here is an example:

Sometimes I come home from school with lots of homework, when there is a TV

show that I want to watch I won’t get my homework done.

This is an example of two independent clauses joined by commas only. To correct the error, you can add a coordinating conjunction:

Sometimes I come home from school with lots of homework, and when there is a TV show that I want to watch I won’t get my homework done.

A fused sentence occurs when two or more independent clauses are joined together without a comma or a coordinating conjunction. Here is an example:

I don’t like to buy my lunch at school the lines are too long I end up getting chips and a drink.

You can correct this fused sentence by breaking apart the independent clauses or by using a comma and a coordinating conjunction.

I don’t like to buy my lunch at school. The lines are too long, and I end up getting chips and a drink

标点符号　　遗漏大小写　　非独立句　　片　段　　拼写错误　　普遍容易混淆的词

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　片　段

一个完整的句子是由有主谓双全的并能表达一个完整意思的一组词组成的。而一个片段尽管以大写字母开头，并以标点符号结尾的，但它不是一个完整的句子。下面就有两个片段：

　Where the mosquitoes and fleas were making him miserable.
　蚊子和跳蚤折磨他的地方。

　A fear of being in a closed or narrow space.
　处在一个被包围或狭窄场所的恐惧。

　这两组词都不是独立的句子，可用两种方法纠正。一种是把它们分别和另外一个句子连在一起。如：

　Simon left the campsite where the mosquitoes and fleas were making him miserable.
　西门离开了那个受蚊子和跳蚤折磨的野营地。

　Many people suffer from claustrophobia, a fear of being in a closed or narrow space.
　许多人都患上了幽闭恐怖症――这是一种处在被包围或狭窄场所的恐惧。

　另外一种方法是给它们加上一个主语、谓语动词和能表达一个完整思想的一些其它单词。如：　
　
　The mosquitoes and fleas at the campsite were making Simon miserable.
　野营地的蚊子和跳蚤正折磨着西门。

　Claustrophobia is a fear of being in a confined space.
　幽闭恐怖症是处在一个狭窄场所的恐惧。读者经常能通过重读前后句子（根据上下文）领会片段的意思。一个优秀的作者应该做到避免使读者费大力气才能看懂句子的意思。所以在你再检查文章的时候，修改你的片段以显示文章的前后联系以免使读者感到迷惑不解。

FRAGMENTS:

A complete sentence is a group of words that has a subject and a verb and expresses a complete thought. A fragment is not a complete sentence even though it starts with a capital letter and ends with a punctuation mark. Here are two examples of fragments:

Where the mosquitoes and fleas were making him miserable.

A fear of being in a closed or narrow space.

Neither of these groups of words is an independent clause that can stand alone. They can be corrected in two ways. One way is to attach then to another sentence.

Simon left the campsite where the mosquitoes and fleas were making him miserable.

Many people suffer from claustrophobia, a fear of being in a closed or narrow space.

Another way to correct the fragments is to add a complete subject, complete verb, or other words that will express a complete thought.

The mosquitoes and fleas at the campsite were making Simon miserable.

Claustrophobia is a fear of being in a confined space.

Readers can often figure out the meaning of a fragment by rereading the sentences that come before and after it. A good writer should make sure that the reader does not have to struggle to understand the meaning of sentences. When you review your writing, revise fragments to show connections between ideas and to prevent the reader from becoming confused

标点符号　　遗漏大小写　　非独立句　　片　段　　拼写错误　　普遍容易混淆的词

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　普遍容易混淆的词

有些单词因为发音相同或者形似而容易混淆。用错单词会给读者传达一些错误的意思，会使读者混淆。
