1.书面表达的开头俗话说万事开头难。其实，一点也不难。高考英语书面表达的开头句一般已为你写好。你要做的是分段缩进重起第二段。注意千万不要接着已写好的首句。一是不美观，二是不便于阅卷老师细览。那么你的起头句实际上是第二段了。开始句根据要求一般可以写的漂亮一点，即要用一些好的套语开始。比如：

　　①Opinions are divided on the question.

　　②Chart 1 shows the daily average amount of time the students of the school spend on different after-class activities. (北京卷)

　　③As is shown on Chart 2， only 10% of the time is taken up with sports activities.(北京卷)

　　④Although the city is modern and convenient， there are still some problems， such as air pollution， crowdedness and noise.(湖南卷)

　　⑤My parents and I are very pleased to have you with us.(全国卷I)

　　⑥I am so sorry that I won't be able to attend the lecture on American history tomorrow afternoon. (全国卷III)

　　可是很多考生总在开头处写的不尽如人意，总喜欢搞一些生造的句子或词语来开头，这是一大忌。有些开头可以以套语开始，或以俗语开始比较有力，这样就容易被老师看好。档位在开始时就已定得很高了。现以湖北卷书面表达试题的开始句为例看考生的千奇百怪的错误：

　　①Some students agreed start learning English from childhood.

　　②Some students think： we should learn English from childhood. Because of we have a good memory in childhood.

　　③Some students considered it's useless to slart learning English from childhood.

　　④One group thought its necessary to start learning English from child.

　　⑤In some students opinion， we shall start learning English from childhood.

　　⑥Some of students considered that children at their ages had a good memory…

　　 2.书面表达的结尾：⑦⑧结尾在书面表达的写作中占有很重要的地位，通常结尾都要算一个内容要求，所以，写好结尾且让阅卷老师有一个完整的印象是十分必要的。好的结尾可以是一段，由一句或几句话组成，能使全文增色。例如：

　　①If there is anything I can do for you， I would be more than glad to help.( 全国卷I)

　　②It would mean a great deal to me to listen to the tape and learn what is covered in the talk. (全国卷III)

　　③What's more， some statues of famous people will be set up to encourage us to work harder. Don't you think it a wonderful program? (2004福建卷)

　　④Please let me know if you want me to buy these dictionaries. (浙江卷)

　　 ⑤By the time mom came back， I had finished the work. Mom praised me， and I felt proud too. (重庆卷)

　　⑥In short， the students have not arrived at any agreement yet.(湖北卷)

　　 但是，在实际的操作中，许多考生却不知如何来结尾，原本一、两句话或极少的表达就可很圆满地完成写作任务，往往又旁生枝节，写上一些废话，甚至错话，结果因表达不当又被扣分。以2004年湖北卷书面表达试题考生的错误为例，可以看出很多考生是吃力不讨好的。结尾中主要的错误体现在不必要的累赘和废话上面：

　　 ▲结尾的枝节(不必要的累赘)

　　 ①In a word， the discussion is broken……

　　 ②In my opinion， the students should enjoy free， sunshine， flowers， the walks in the beauty of the countryside not except the studying.

　　 ③Though they have two different kinds of opinions about this discussion， but they are very friendly in this discussion.

　　 ▲废话

　　 ①The discuss meeting didn't again a same result.

　　 ②What do you think， can you tell me.

　　 ③The discussion didn't get a conclusion. What's your opinion?
