(第二节)主题句作文
主题句作文也可以叫做段首句作文,要求考生将每段所给出的主题句分别加以扩展,完成段落,然后由段落组成文章。主题句作文是目前较常用的一种出题方式,它不像一般正规文章那样要求具有开头段和结尾段,一般只给出三句主题句,所以属于一种简单的三段式作文。在写作这种题目的作文时,考生只要正确领悟每个主题句的意思,然后对每段的主题句进行阐述,内容应当展开,可以是对主题句的解释,可以是例证,也可以提供理由或细节。

Money
(1) Money is regarded by some people as the most important thing in life.
(2) But money cannot buy everything.
(3) There are people who gamble or cheat to obtain money.
Money
Money is regarded by some people as the most important thing in life. For those people, a man with plenty of money can live happily. For example, only a rich man can afford expensive cars and luxurious houses. Furthermore, they think that, if one has lots of money, he can travel widely and see many interesting places as they want to. So in their eyes, money is the main goal of their life.
But money cannot buy everything. For instance, no matter how much money one has, he can not buy good health, which is essential to a good life. Neither can he buy happiness or friendship. Thus, although money is useful in many ways, there are still a lot of things in the world that can not be bought with money.
There are people who gamble or cheat to obtain money. Those people try to get money by dishonest means. Sooner or later, they will be punished by the law. For them, money will bring them nothing but misery. Only when money is obtained through working can it make people really happy.
在进行主题句作文时,应该注意以下几点:①紧扣主题句的思想。在上面讲述段落结构时我们已经提到,主题句的内容是整个段落的主导思想,它支配着整个段落内容的发展,发展句的展开一定要受到主题句的制约,是主题句思想的详细阐述。在写作时,一定不能偏离主题句的内容,随便乱写。例如,在上面的题目中第一段应围绕“the most important thing”这一主导思想,而对于第二段来说,“cannot buy everything”则是该段内容的中心,第三段的主导思想为“gamble or cheat to obtain money”。②理解每一个主题句的内容。在写主题句作文时,要从短文的整体结构上来考虑各段的内容,并理解和把握各个段落之间的逻辑关系。

Dictionary
The dictionary is living teacher. Whenever you come across a new word, just consult it and you will get a clear definition. Every student, whether attending school or self-taught, should always have a dictionary at hand. As a study aid, it is convenient, inexpensive and allknowing.
Skills will develop with your constant use of various dictionaries. The more you use them, the more familiar you will become with them. Sooner or later, you will be quite skilled in finding the page, scanning the entries and locating the exact meaning of the new words.
But you should have one thing mind. As a language student, you should never depend too much on dictionaries. Basic language skills do not come from dictionaries, but from your practice. Learn the language by listening, speaking, reading and writing more, and that is the only way to the mastery of a language.
