今天我們一本正經地來說作文。
但凡寫過中文作文的學生，不引據經典的少之又少。
為啥？信手拈來頭頭是道又可以湊字數唄。
所謂旁徵博引無非分兩類：絞盡腦汁改編歷史（名人）逸事或者平鋪直敘名人名言。所以在我們的作文中，儘管司馬遷多次遭受宮刑，但他忍受住一次又一次的痛苦，還以頑強的毅力寫出了偉大的《史記》！（一次又一次？司馬爺爺你…難道是春風吹又生？）
別笑，真的有人這麼寫，我也很絕望啊。同時，在我們的作文中，但凡陷入困頓的境地時，必曰“天將降大任於斯人也，必先苦其心志，勞其筋骨，餓其體膚，空乏其身，行拂亂其所為”。
唉，你們沒寫過？那我暴露年齡了喂～
對，都是套路！但套路就是得閱卷老師的心啊，不光中文作文，英文作文尤其如此。想想你們寫的作文，幾乎所有的example中，主人公都是要經歷磨難才能見光明，哪怕是賣一臺舊電腦你也得先學會吆呼不是；而幾乎所有的reason中，都是要彰顯正能量的。不信你去翻～
我帶過的學生中，很多人常常哀嘆只給標題的英文作文完全沒有東西可以寫（比如託福大作文）；給出內容框架的作文，雖然要求寫的都寫了，但是乾巴巴得像得了厭食症的少女，一點兒都不豐滿（比如高考，四六級作文等）。
我的上帝啊，你一定沒有積累過任何例子和大道理吧。（翻譯腔.jpg）。
說到積累，跟中文作文一樣，英文作文中你也要善於舉例子。不管是你舅舅還是隔壁老王，一定要有時間地點人物和事件，切記具體但不囉嗦。
關於講道理，一定要擺出一副娓娓道來言之有理的姿態，這時候一定少不了諺語——大家約定俗稱的說法。只要你用的場合對，肯定可以提分。吶，
