根據《在職人員以研究生畢業(yè)同等學力申請碩士學位外國語課程水平統(tǒng)一考試大綱》的規(guī)定，要求考生具備一定的寫作能力，在30分鐘內按要求寫出一篇100～120詞的短文，形式可以是按所給的提綱寫短文，或描述圖表，寫內容提要、概述等。分值為15分。

     從某種意義上來說，同等學力英語作文有點類似“八股文”：因為它有固定的寫作格式、結構。對于固定的題型，有固定不變的表達法。因此，大家有理由相信只要訓練方法得當，對付寫作是不難的。我認為最好的方法就是多背范文和常用句型。包括各類型作文的開頭、結尾句、中間展開、過渡句，以及比較、圖表說明等的常用句型和表達法，然后自己多動筆寫一寫，只要按這樣的方法進行練習，短時間內就可以在寫作上取得滿意的分。下面給大家介紹一些常用的過渡詞和句型：

     過渡詞在文章中發(fā)揮著連接上下文的作用，學會恰當地運用過渡詞會使文章連貫、流暢。這里提供的過渡詞都是最基本的，考生在時間緊、工作繁忙的情況下，可根據自己的喜好，掌握各類中的二至三個用法即可。

近來在一些發(fā)達地區(qū)出現網上購物熱
一些人喜歡網上購物
另一些人不喜歡網上購物

參考范文：

    Recently, shopping on the Net is gradually becoming popular in modern cities. To illustrate, we can conduct E-business, advertise our products, book an air ticket, buy and sell stocks, even hunt a job on the web. However, people take different attitudes towards the new way of shopping.

     Some people who prefer shopping on the virtual shopping centers hold that the new way of shopping has many advantages. First, the web-stores can keep customers updated about the best selling products. Besides, they can provide customers with a wider range of choices. Most important of all, it is very convenient and time-saving. People can stay at home shopping whatever they want online.

     However, others who stick to shopping in the real-life stores have their reasons. First, they argue that it’s a little bit complicated to pay on the Web. Besides, they think that customers can never believe the quality of the commodities unless they see them with their own eyes. Finally, they believe the best way to be on guard against the fake and poor quality commodities is to shop in the traditional way. Therefore, they don’t show any interest in shopping online. (However, more and more people will prefer shopping on the Web. And it’s believed that it will eventually be a trend of shopping in the 21st century.)---可加可不加

2、你如何保持自己在職場的不敗之地

     It seems that the financial crisis has made it more and more difficult for people for find a good job. Meanwhile (At the same time), it becomes even harder for us to keep our positions, because there are more applicants available.

     So, how can we make us always successful in our career? In my perspective, there are at least three ways, which are compatible with the current situation. Above all, we should recharge ourselves through various methods, such as training and part-time education. It is notable that this method has been holding an increasingly significant proportion. Then, we should maintain good interpersonal relationship. This belief is reinforced by a recent survey which shows that 60% of adults, more or less, the beneficiaries of the consequence.

此外還想對對考生提出幾點建議，以下幾方面是考生在復習準備期間和考試時應特別注意的：

(一)考前準備

    考生在考前應寫幾篇短文，先找自己感興趣的題目寫。對一些從沒寫過英語作文的考生來說，要克服畏難情緒，寫第一篇作文時，考生有可能出現較多較嚴重的錯誤，但不要緊，因為只有邁出第一步，才能取得更大的進步，否則會永遠停留在不會寫的水平上。建議考生自己動筆，寫前不要看范文，可以參考一下寫作提示，寫完后再與范文對照。另外，不要死記硬背范文，考生應從范文中找出自己喜好和需要的句型或詞匯記憶，因為作文沒有唯一的標準答案，只要寫得好就會得高分。

(二)避免寫錯句

    作文要表達清楚，錯句、語病太多肯定影響表達思想。因而考生在寫作時一定要首先做到盡可能地減少錯誤，在此基礎上才可以考慮有一些句式的變化。如果為了追求句式的變化而出現一些本來可以避免的錯誤，同樣會影響成績。同時，寫作時還應避開自己不會用英文表達的思想，使用自己有把握的句型和詞匯，這樣才能更好地避免錯誤。

(三)篇幅適中

     由于寫作的時間只有30分鐘，篇幅要求100詞左右，因此考生在確定段落的主題句之后，只要圍繞段落的中心思想寫三至五句，把意思表達清楚即可。一般情況下，一篇三段文的短篇，各段的長度應相差不多，不應在前二段中花太多的時間，而后一段只匆匆寫了一句，這樣做也會影響成績。

(四)修改定稿

     修改定稿是考生在考場應試時決不能缺少的一步�？忌�在30分鐘的寫作考試中應留出2至3分鐘，把自己的作文通讀一遍，檢查錯句及語病。相當多的考生是能分辨錯誤的，只是寫時未加注意，只要認真檢查，許多常見錯誤如主謂一致問題、大小寫問題、拼寫及標點符號等都是可以自己更正的。如果考生在平時的寫作訓練中抓住這一環(huán)節(jié)養(yǎng)成習慣，正式考試時就不會忽視改定稿了。
