前言
近些年來,我國高職高專教育的改革和發(fā)展取得了長足的進(jìn)步,無論是學(xué)校數(shù)量,還是在校生人數(shù)都占到高??倲?shù)和學(xué)生人數(shù)的一半以上。高職高專英語專業(yè)學(xué)校的數(shù)量和學(xué)生人數(shù)也增長很快。為了滿足新形勢對高職高專英語專業(yè)教育和人才培養(yǎng)的需求,我們編寫了“高職高專英語專業(yè)立體化系列教材”,該套教材被列為普通高等教育“十一五”國家級規(guī)劃教材。、 本套教材力圖體現(xiàn)我國高職高專英語專業(yè)教學(xué)實(shí)踐的特點(diǎn),遵循高職高專教育“實(shí)用為主、夠用為度”的總體指導(dǎo)方針,充分反映中國學(xué)生學(xué)習(xí)英語的規(guī)律和要求,并體現(xiàn)我國英語教學(xué)研究的新成果、新思想和新理念。教材的設(shè)計(jì)充分考慮高職高專英語專業(yè)的課程設(shè)置、課時(shí)、教學(xué)要求與高職高專英語專業(yè)人才培養(yǎng)的要求與目標(biāo),力圖處理好打好英語語言基礎(chǔ)與培養(yǎng)英語語言應(yīng)用能力的關(guān)系,強(qiáng)調(diào)英語言語基本技能的訓(xùn)練與培養(yǎng)實(shí)際使用英語從事涉外交際活動的語言應(yīng)用能力并重。 《英語寫作教程》(A Guide to English Essay-Writing for ChineseLearners)是該系列的主干教材之一,其目的在于培養(yǎng)學(xué)生用英語的基本寫作能力,特別是篇章結(jié)構(gòu)和句子層面的基本功。本教程適用于我國高職高專院校的英語專業(yè)學(xué)生,同時(shí)也適用于大學(xué)本科英語專業(yè)低年級學(xué)生和“二?!笔怯⒄Z專業(yè)的學(xué)生使用。本教材的設(shè)計(jì)教學(xué)時(shí)間為一個(gè)學(xué)期?! W(xué)生的英語寫作能力是一種綜合性的語言能力。書面交際的成功,不僅要求作者寫出的句子語法正確(grammatically corect),表達(dá)有效(effective),還要求整篇作文的結(jié)構(gòu)符合英語讀者的閱讀預(yù)期(expectations)。因此,英語寫作課歷來是我國學(xué)生較為頭疼、但又“不能不學(xué)”的一門基礎(chǔ)課;對很多教師而言,寫作課也因此成為一門“不得不教”的任務(wù)。基于這一認(rèn)識,本教材的編寫目的之一便是:培養(yǎng)學(xué)習(xí)者的興趣,提高英語寫作課的教學(xué)效率,進(jìn)而促進(jìn)學(xué)生語言綜合能力的提升。

章節(jié)摘錄
7. 3. 2.2 Process Analysis Process analysis is another effective strategy a writer often uses to develop aparagraph. Using this method, the writer presents a chronological sequence ofsteps that explain how Something is done, how something happens, or how readerscan do something. There are two kinds of process analysis paragraphs: the how-to-do-it (calledinstructional or directional process) and the how-it-is-done (called informationalor mechanical process). In the latter, your primary concern is to explain a processthat the reader has no intention of repeating the steps. For example, one may wantto know what is involved in capping an oil well without actually wanting to do it.In this kind of paragraph, you do not have to be too exact in describing theprocess. However, in the how-to-do-it paragraph you must be very exact, for hereyour reader plans on following your directions. Your main objective here is tomake your directions clear enough so that the reader will be able to accomplishthe task easily. Process paragraphs that give instructions are mostly often written in the secondperson. Address the reader directly asyou, but there is an impliedyou in imperativesentences. For example in the sentence, "Remove the lid", the subject "you" isunderstood but not directly stated. Note how the reader is addressed and how thesteps are organized in the following process paragraphs.
