很多学生认为，可怕的1000字阅读学术文章对于只要求150和250字的写作借鉴意义不大，实际上，两者在主题涵盖范围、段落结构以及用词句式等方面存在着极大的相似性。下面我就来为大家解释解释。

1. 主题

阅读和写作涉及到的话题重点都包含环境、社会、教育、文化四大类。阅读文章可以帮助童鞋们更好地理解话题的文化背景，从而积累重要素材。

剑4Test2的 Reading Passage1"Lost for Words"就极好地回答了一道写作中较难的文化类考题：What are the reasons for the loss of many cultures and languages? How to solve this problem?很多学生由于缺乏对这方面背景的了解而无从下手，我们就来看看这篇文章提供了哪些素材：

1."What makes a language endangered is not just the number of speakers, but how old they are. If it is spoken by children, it is relatively safe."

2."Why do people reject the language of their parents? It begins with a crisis of confidence, when a small community finds itself alongside a larger, wealthier society..."

3."Quite often, governments try to kill off a minority language by banning its use in public or    discouraging its use in schools, all to promote national unity."

4."They cannot refuse to speak English if most commercial activity is in English..."

以上文中的句子都解释了为何语言在丧失，除此之外，文章还提到了语言逐渐消失和文化之间的互相作用，完全可以帮助同学们在写作的时候拓展思路:

"Language is also intimately bound with culture, so it may be difficult to preserve one without    the other."

2. 段落结构&参考句式

写作大作文往往是分析解决型，常常要求考生对题目所述现象（通常是二选一）进行讨论，说明原因、影响以及解决方式，段落多是以"总-分-总"的方式架构。

剑六Test 4的Reading Passage3就提供了一个很好的范例。该文对校园中恃强凌弱的暴力行为进行了说明，文章段落分布主要是：摆事实（校园暴力的表现形式及现状）-说影响（校园暴力对受害者的心理危害）-查原因（导致学校对校园暴力关注提升的原因）-提办法（四个解决校园暴力的方法）-总结呼吁。不难看出，这一布局跟分析解决型作文有着惊人的相似。其中值得参考的句式如下：

摆事实：

"...can take a variety of forms, from...to...as well as... . A survey ...found that..."。那我们就用这一套路尝试给青少年犯罪话题开个头: Teenagers criminal acts can take a variety of forms, form theft to robbery as well as kidnapping. Some surveys recently found that the rate of youth crimes is increasing.

查原因：

"...factors are involved in ... . First is.... . Second, .... . For example,.... . Third, there is evidence that

... ."仍然是青少年犯罪的话题，我们来代入看看：Several factors are involved in the alarming trend. First is teenagers' ignorance of laws... . Second, some reasons are in association with their family background. For example, some young criminals imitate their parents' domestic violence. Finally, there is evidence that society exerts some bad influence on young people.

提办法:

"Evidence suggests that a key step is to... . Other actions can be taken to ... . There are also ways of ..., too."

"The most important step is for...to ... . In addition, actions can be taken through... . Effective

work can also be done with... . ...will be more effective."我们可以根据自己习惯用的句式来解答青少年犯罪的解决方法：The most important step is for school authorities to offer students knowledge of laws. Other actions can be taken to reverse the increase in the youth criminal rate, such as proper guidance from society and parents.

总之，建议考生们可以根据阅读文章进行相关写作话题的模写，另外，词汇的丰富和语法的多样性也是值得注意的。反过来，如果能够很好地构建写作结构，对于阅读技巧的熟练掌握也是大有裨益的。
