第三單元 如何寫好主題句

3．1關(guān)于寫主題句的建議

1）要寫合乎語法的句子

Example 1： Two causes of the American Civil War．

這個(gè)句子是個(gè)不完整的句子，不合乎語法，因此不能用作主題句。

Example 2： There were two causes that led to the American Civil War．

重寫后的句子合乎語法，是個(gè)較好的主題句。

2）要使用限寫詞限定主題

為了正確表達(dá)觀點(diǎn)，好的主題句經(jīng)常使用關(guān)鍵詞或詞組，即限制詞（controllers）限制這一觀點(diǎn)。

Example 3： Air travel is more convenient than train for at least three reasons．

從上例主題句我們得知作者將要寫“air travel”（ topic），他將要把 “train”（ aspect）和“ air travel”作比較，并且陳述“reasons”。由此可見，作者在“aspect”（方面）和“reason”（原因）兩方面限制他的主題。

3）要注意主題的可寫性

所定的主題不能太籠統(tǒng)，也不能太具體。

Example 4： In Hemingway's story “Soldier’s Home”，Krebs tells his mother that he wants no part of God's Kingdom．

這個(gè)句子太具體以至于無東西可寫，無法展開段落。

Example 5： In Hemingway's story “Soldier’s Home”， Kreb is a lonely， cynical veteran．

這個(gè)句子可作為主題句，因?yàn)榭梢試@“l(fā)onely，cynical”展開段落。

Example 6： Let me tell you something about overpopulation．

這個(gè)句子太籠統(tǒng)，作為一個(gè)段落的主題太大，難于駕馭。

Example 7： Why has the world population been increasing sorapidly in the last decades？

這個(gè)句子是個(gè)較好的主題句，作者用“the reasons for overpopulation in the last decades”，從“原因”（cause）和“時(shí)間”（time）兩方面限制了主題，能在一個(gè)段落內(nèi)論述。

The one most people are familiar with is the“desk dictionary”，sometimes refered to as general-purpose dictionary． Another kind is the pronouncing dictionary， which is concerned with a word's pronunciation more than with its meaning． A third type is the bilingual dictionary， which lists the words in one language and attempts to give equivalent meaning in another language． Other types include technical dictionaries， special purpose dictionaries，and scholarly dictionaries．
