要写好一篇书面表达,不仅要做到语句通顺,内容连贯,而且还应当利用各种手段增加亮点,以加深对读者的印象,使读者为之一振。一些与写作相关的名言警句、谚语格言等都可以成为很醒目的亮点,起到增光添彩的效果。例如,在说明成功的途径时,可以使用“All roads lead to Rome”(条条大路通罗马);在表达一个人的成功需要依靠自己的努力时,可以使用“God helps those who help themselves” (自助者天助之);如果强调早晨对学习的重要性,可以使用“An hour in the morning is worth two in the evening” (一日之计在于晨);强调人要有志向时,可以借用名言 “where there is a will, there is a way.” (有志者,事竟成)等。学生在平时的学习过程中可以适当记忆部分常用名言警句,以下是笔者结合多年的教学经验,列出的中、高考写作中最常用到的名言警句。
