本篇书面表达属于概要写作。
概要写作是将阅读与写作有机结合,要求考生既能读懂文章信息,又要依据要求规范连贯地表达内容,其中准确概括很有挑战且十分重要,根据记叙文、议论文、说明文等不同文体作相应概括,总的来说,遵循以下步骤:
确定主题句;
寻找关键词;
重构主题句;
重组支持句。
如本篇文章第一段引出话题:
世界上每个国家都有一面国旗,国旗能反映出这个国家和它的文化;
第二段介绍了国旗的组成元素;
第三指出国旗也可以讲述一个国家的过去;
第四段指出国旗可能是一个团体、一所学校或像奥运会这样的活动的象征。
书写时注意使用适当的连接词连接这些要点,使上下句之间具有连贯性。
概要写作的基础是理解语篇,而读懂语篇的基础是词汇,尤其是对关键词汇的掌握与运用。
在此基础上,综合运用语法与句法结构,按照行文逻辑组织语言,就可以写出很好的概要。
概要写作时要先读懂原文,提取其中的主干信息,然后用自己的语言对原文的概况进行有条理的介绍,一定不要照抄原文原句,而是用熟悉的单词和句式表达,组成通顺连贯的短文。
同时注意要求的词数60左右的限制。
