　　第二講 記敘文：如何敘事？

　　一、寫作指導(dǎo)

　　敘事類記敘文通常要將時間、地點、人物、事件、原因和結(jié)果等六個要素交代清楚。好的記敘文具有描述事件具體、人物逼真形象、故事生動感人、材料表現(xiàn)中心和寫作主旨明確等特征。高考英語基礎(chǔ)寫作中的敘事類短文也需要具有記敘文寫作的一般特點，但要求相對比較低，其考查重點在語言運(yùn)用正確、句子連貫通順、信息點表述完整等方面。寫作時要注意以下幾個方面的問題：

　　1. 嚴(yán)格按照基礎(chǔ)寫作的要求完成各個信息點，不要為了文章的生動而隨意添加信息。

　　2. 信息點的表述不要完全按照題目所給的順序，要適當(dāng)重組信息點。

　　3. 記敘文寫作的時態(tài)多數(shù)是用一般過去時，但也要注意靈活運(yùn)用其它時態(tài)。

　　4. 敘事類記敘文的話題通常和中學(xué)生的生活閱歷有關(guān)，如校園生活、旅游、交通、交友等，平時要注意積累這些方面的詞匯和短語。
