情景导入
开学第一周,学军中学的英语角要举办"学习方法分享会",老师请小舟准备一篇短文:How I Learn English。
小舟有一肚子经验——看美剧记台词、用单词卡背词、和同桌用英语聊天——可一动笔就变成了流水账:I watch TV. I read books. I speak English. 句句都对,却毫无章法。
问题出在哪?没有结构,方法之间没有"怎么做 + 有什么用"的展开。这一讲我们就来解决它:用"总—分—总"骨架 + by doing 句型,把学习经验写成一篇有条理、有亮点的高分作文。
核心词汇
学习方法话题高频词:
| 分类 | 词汇与短语 |
|---|---|
| 记单词 | word cards(单词卡)、make vocabulary lists(做词汇表)、look up new words(查生词) |
| 练听说 | watch English movies(看英文电影)、repeat after the tape(跟读录音)、practice conversations(练对话) |
| 读与写 | keep a diary in English(用英语记日记)、read aloud(朗读)、take notes(做笔记) |
| 学习品质 | be patient(有耐心)、little by little(一点一点地)、make progress(取得进步) |
万能感悟句素材:Practice makes perfect.(熟能生巧。)/ Nothing is impossible if you keep trying.(坚持尝试,一切皆有可能。)
句型与结构
结构骨架(三段式):
- 总起段:点明"英语很重要 / 我曾遇到困难,后来找到了好方法"——English is important, but learning it well is not easy.
- 方法段:写 2~3 种方法,每种方法都按"做法 + 好处"两步展开,用 First / Besides / What's more 串联。
- 总结段:一句感悟收尾——Practice makes perfect. I believe I can learn English even better.
本讲核心句型:by + doing 表方式(学习方法作文的"灵魂句型"):
- I improve my listening by watching English movies.(我通过看英文电影提高听力。)
- I remember new words by making word cards.(我通过做单词卡记生词。)
- 展开公式:做法 + 好处——I often read aloud in the morning. In this way, I can remember the sentences more easily.
提分句型升级:
- I think reading is useful. → What helps me most is reading English every day.(主语从句,档次立升)
- It's important to practice. → The more you practice, the better you will become.(the 比较级句型)
听说训练
写前口头操练(先说顺再下笔):
- I improve my listening by watching English movies. (我通过看英文电影提高听力。)
- In this way, I can remember new words more easily. (这样,我能更容易地记住生词。)
辨析对比
| 流水账写法 | 高分写法 | |
|---|---|---|
| 方法一 | I watch English movies. | I improve my listening by watching English movies, and I often repeat the lines after the actors. |
| 方法二 | I use word cards. | I remember new words by making word cards. In this way, I can review them anywhere. |
| 感悟 | English is good. | Practice makes perfect. Little by little, I have made great progress. |
规律:高分句 = 方法(by doing)+ 细节或好处(In this way...)——每个方法至少写两句,作文自然丰满。
文化角
英语里把"学习方法"叫 learning strategies(学习策略)。英美课堂常提倡 learning by doing(在做中学)——语言不是背出来的,而是"用"出来的。这也解释了为什么外教总鼓励大家 Don't be afraid of making mistakes.(别怕犯错。)在英语文化里,敢开口、敢试错本身就是最受赞赏的学习品质,写作文时把"从怕开口到敢开口"的转变写进去,会非常打动阅卷老师。
易错点
- by 后忘用动名词:by watch movies ❌ → by watching movies ✅,by 是介词,后面必须接 doing。
- 方法堆砌无展开:连写五种方法各一句,不如精选三种方法各两句——"做法 + 好处"才是得分点。
- 时态漂移:介绍现在的习惯用一般现在时;写"我曾经很差"的对比时才用过去时(I used to be weak in listening.),两者别混在一段乱跳;另外避免句句都是 I... 开头,适当换成 What helps me most is...,句式立刻多样。

How I Learn English
When I entered junior high school, listening was my biggest problem. I could hardly understand my teacher in class, which made me worried.
Luckily, I have found some useful ways. First, I improve my listening by watching English movies and repeating the lines. Besides, I remember new words by making word cards, so I can review them on the subway or after class. What's more, I keep a diary in English every day. In this way, my writing has become much better.
Practice makes perfect. Little by little, I have made great progress, and now I really enjoy learning English.
点评:① "困难—方法—感悟"三段清晰,完全覆盖要点;② by doing 句型出现两次,In this way 衔接自然;③ 亮点:which 非限制性定语从句、现在完成时表变化;④ 约 100 词,符合要求。
考点
- "学习方法"是九年级上 Unit 1 的核心话题,也是杭州中考书面表达与口语考试的常客,常以短文、发言稿或回信形式命题;
- 评分关键:方法是否具体(by doing + 效果)、结构是否清晰(总—分—总)、有无亮点句型(the 比较级、主语从句、现在完成时);
- 备考策略:把"听、说、读、写"各准备一个"方法 + 好处"的句对,考场按题目要求挑三个组装即可。

诵读小贴士:背这篇范文时抓住三个"锚点"——第一段的 which 从句、第二段的两个 by doing、第三段的 Practice makes perfect。锚点背牢后,把"听力差"换成"口语差"、把"看电影"换成"跟外教聊天",同一副骨架就能应付所有学习方法类题目。
