达有关主旨的态度、观点或见解。主题阐述应表达一个观点，而不应表达一个事实，需要进一步的解释和论证。并非简单地提出文章将要展开的主题，而要表明和限制其展开的方法。位置最好是在引言段的结尾或接近段尾处。ActivityReadandappreciatethefollowingparagraph.Travelingtoaforeigncountryisalwaysinteresting,especiallyifitisacountrythatiscompletelydifferentfromyourown.Youcandelightintastingnewfoods,seeingnewsights,andlearningaboutdifferentcustoms,someofwhichmayseemverycurious.Ifyouweretovisitmycountry,forinstance,youwouldprobablythinkthatmypeoplehavesomeverystrangecustoms,asthesethreeexampleswillillustrate在这个引言段中，作者在第一个句子中引出了“travelingtoaforeigncountry”的话题。然后，把这个题目缩小到具体的方面，即作者自己国家的风俗习惯。作者在段落最后的一个句子中提出对主题的阐述，其中表述段落主旨的关键词是“strange”。在正文中将用三个具体的例证阐述这种独特的风俗习惯。EffectiveIntroductionHowtowriteeffectiveintroduction?PertinentQuotationQuestionRhetoricalQuestionAutobiographyFactsandStatisticsRefutation开篇恰当地引用名人名言或格言谚语，会使文章显得富于哲理。这不仅是引起读者注意的一种简单而有效的方法，而且还可以增强文章的说服力和表现力。“Theonlyuselesslifeiswoman’s,”wroteBenjaminDisraeliaboutacenturyago.Todaymanyfeministsarehardatworktoliberatewomanfromthe“useless”lifeofhousewifetoa“useful”oneofengineer,doctor,orpoliticalleader.Allwomen,however,donotconsiderthelifeofkeepinghouseandrearingchildrenuseless.Infact,asstrangeasitmaysoundtomostpeople,notallwomenwanttobeliberated.PertinentQuotation（恰当的引语）在引言段中提出一个将在文章中阐释的问题，可以引起读者对主题的思考。Whatshouldwegetfromcollege?Somestudentswilltellyouverydefinitelywhattheywant.Onewantstotakeallthosesubjects,andonlythose,thatwillhelphergetintomedicalschool;another,knowingthatajobawaitshiminhisfather'sfirm,wantstobecomeanengineerasquicklyandpainlesslyashecan.Ontheotherhandistheperson,whoIsuspectisinthemajority,whoseonlydefiniteaimistodiscoversomedefiniteaim(Horner,1988,p.237).Question（问题）RhetoricalQuestion（修辞性疑问句）反诘是以问句的形式表述自己观点的方法，用以加重语气或强调效果，而并不是真正的问句。作者不是为了获得新信息而发问，而是为了引起读者的思考，所以不要求回答。 ArethecourtsabolishingsexdiscriminationinAmericaneducation?Recentcourtdecisionsconcerningchargesofsexdiscriminationinuniversityathleticshaveraisedsomeveryrealdoubtsinthemindsoffemaleathletesaboutthewillingnessofthecourtstoabolishsexbias.Areviewofthreeofthesecaseswillillustratethepoint.Autobiography（个人经历）在引言段中，以描写与主题相关的个人的一次经历或一个事件开头，引发主题，可使

陈述对方的观点或意见，然后再表达自己的观点。以一种灵活的方式确立论点，对于议论文不失为恰当的写作手法。Forcingchildrentodothings,ingeneral,isgoodifthechildisindangerortooyoungtomakemajordecisions.Parentsmayalsoarguethatforcingtheirchildtotakeupcertainhobbies,likethepiano,willgivethechildawell-roundededucationandapossiblefuturecareerinmusic.However,thereareseveralproblemswithforcingchildrentocomply:abreakdownincommunicationbetweenthechildrenandtheparents,rebellion,andfailureinschool(Leonhard,1999,p.101).（2）MainBody:FormalOutlinePatternThesisStatement:I.FirstmainideaA.Firstsubordinateidea1.Firstexampleorillustration2.Secondexampleorillustrationa.Firstsupportingdetailb.SecondSupportingdetailB.SecondsubordinateideaSecondmainidea（3）ConcludingParagraph结尾段位于短文的末尾，是整篇文章不可缺少的组成部分，是要点总结。它总结归纳文章正文阐述的观点，并重申主题，与引言段首尾呼应。结尾应该警策有力而又耐人寻味。WritingRequirements◆以不同的简洁的语句重述主题使之得到深化。◆对主题做最后评论，以引起读者对文章主题的回味和思考。◆总结文章论证要点，加深读者对整篇文章的理解，并留下更深刻的印象。◆在结尾段开首时运用表示结论的转承词语以示整篇文章就要结束，同时也使结尾段与正文的连接更为流畅自然。TypicalConclusions◆EvaluatingtheSubject（评价主题的重要性）Theseamazing,controversialphotographsofthecometwillcontinuetobethesubjectofdebatebecause,accordingtosomescientists,theyyieldthemostimportantcluesyetrevealedabouttheoriginsofouruniverse.◆StatingBroaderImplication（阐述深远的寓意）BecausethesestudiesoffelineleukemiamaysomedayplayacrucialroleinthediscoveryofacureforAIDSinhumanbeings,theexperiments,asexpensiveastheyare,mustcontinue.◆UsingWitticism（用诙谐的语言深化主题）Noonesaiddietingwaseasy.Butforsomeofuswhohavesurrendered,thecliche“halfaloafisbetterthannone”hastakenonnewmeaning!◆InferringandForecasting（推论或展望前景）Soapoperaswillcontinuetobepopularnotonlybecausetheydistractusfromourdailychoresbutalsobecausetheypresentlifeaswewantittobe:fast-paced,glamorous,andfullofexcitingcharacters.◆UsingaRhetoricalQuestion（用修辞性疑问句引发深思）Noonewantstoseehostagesputindanger.Butwhatnationcanaffordtoletterroristsknowtheycangetawaywithmurder?4.2WritingProcessFiveStepsinWriting：DeterminingtheTopicFindingandSelectingMaterialsOrganizingMaterialsintoanOutlineDraftingRevisingWaysofMakinganOutlineDirectionsforOutlining：“Harvard标准提纲”是一种表达一篇文章中各个部分内容之间关系的结构框架。根据这个框架结构：大写的罗马数字(theRomannumerals)表示主要划分(maindivisions)；大写英语字母(upper-caseletters)表示续分(subdivisions)；阿拉伯数字(Arabicnumerals)表示再续分(furtherdivisions)；小写英语字母(lower-caseletters)表示下个层次的再续分(stillfurtherdivisions);依次类推。EssayOutlineFrameworkIntroductionI.FirstmajorpointordivisionA.FirstpointbelongingtoabovedivisionB.SecondpointII.SecondmajorpointordivisionA.Firstpointbelongingtoabovedivision1.detailsbelongingtoPointA.2.detailsbelongingtoPointA.a.finerdetailsbelongingto2.(1)stillfinerdetailsbelongingtoa.(2)stillfinerdetailsbelongingtoa.b.B.III.ThirdmajorpointordivisionA.B.C.ConclusionTechniques&PrinciplesinOutlining编列提纲是把思想条理化的过程，逻辑平行是编列提纲的重要原则。主要项目的分类在逻辑上应是并列平行的，它们在内容的重要性、等级、程度上都应是相同的；在语法结构上应由互为平行的词、短语或句子组成。TypesofOutlinesTopicOutlineSentenceOutlineTopic-SentenceOutlineSampleOutline---TherapeuticBenefitsfromPetsThesisStatement:Petshavebeenfoundtoprovideimportanttherapeuticbenefitstothementallyill,thephysicallyill,andthehandicapped.I.BenefitstothementallyillHistoryoftheuseofanimalsforthementallydisturbedRecentuseofanimalstohelpmentallyillpatientsUseofpetstohelpthecriminallyinsaneII.BenefitstothephysicallyillHighersurvivalratesforheart-diseasepatientswhoownpetsB.ImprovedbloodpressureinthosepatientswithpetsC.ImprovementstohospitalpatientswhoarevisitedbypetsBenefitstothehandicappedanddisabledA.PhysicalassistanceSeeing-eyedogsHearing-eardogsAnimalsthatrunerrandsB.EmotionalsupportEmotionalbenefitsofguidedogsIncreasedconfidencetodisabledfromhorsebackridingImprovementofmoraleinnursinghomes. 4.3TypesofEnglishEssays（1）Narration（2）Description（3）Exposition（4）Argumentation(1)Narration记叙文也称叙述文，是以叙述为主要表达方法，以人物、事件为主要表达内容的文章。通讯、新闻报道、历史、散文、故事、游记、人物传记、日记等都属于记叙文。ANewYear'sEvePartyEveryNewYear’sEve,theprovincialgovernmenthostsaNewYear’sEvepartyforforeignexpertsandteachersworkingintheprovince.Onthisparticularevening,theweatherwaspiercinglycoldoutside,butinsidethegrandbanquethall,itwaswarmlikespring.Peoplewereshakinghandssayinghellotoeachother.Theholidayatmospherewasallround.Thechandeliershangingfromtheceilingshonebrightlyandallthelampsaroundthewallswereablazewithcolorfullights.Dozensoflovelygirlsdressedinsnowwhiteuniformswerebusilywalkingupanddownthehallservingtheguestswithdrinksandsnacks.Alltheguestsdressedintheirverybestclotheswereeitherstandingorsittingalongeachsideofthehall.SuddenlythesonorousvoiceoftheMasterofCeremoniescameovertheloudspeakerintroducingthevice-governoroftheprovince,whodeliveredaNewYear’sEvemessage,followedbythepresentationofawardstooutstandingforeignexpertsandteachers.TheproudawardeesstoodinfrontoftherostrumholdingtheirCertificatesofMeritandprizes,posingforflashingcameras.Afterathank-youspeechbyarepresentativeoftheforeignexperts,theperformancebegan.AlltheactorsandactresseswerefromtheProvincialSongandDanceEnsemble.（continued)Thepartyreacheditsclimaxwhenthechairpersondeclaredthatthedancepartywouldbegin.Thelightsweredimmedandalightedballhangingfromtheceilingbeganturningaroundandaroundshootingcoloredlightsinalld
