一、策略指导：面子工程，从练字开始
英语作文为什么要练字？每一届高三学生都要问我同样的问题，而我也总是用下面三个同样的原因来说服他们：
首先，高考阅卷时，作文要被扫描成电子文本，阅卷老师长时间看着电脑屏幕，容易视觉疲劳。在这种情况下，不整洁的卷面很容易引起阅卷老师的反感。
其次，在看电影时，我们常常以貌取人，有的角色一看外表，就知道是坏人。同样，一篇文章要想获得阅卷老师的青睐，在外貌上必须具有“高分作文的气质”，看上去就像出自一个好学生之手。字迹潦草、乱涂乱画、错用标点等细节问题似乎在暗示：这是一篇没品位的作文。
再者，练好英语字非常简单，每一个人都可以做到，不像练习中文书法那么复杂。
为了赢得阅卷老师的眼球，我们要给自己的书面表达适当的“化一点淡妆”。为了赢得阅读老师的芳心，漂亮公正的书写就要从今天做起！
英文书写应符合书写规范，字母要写清楚、整齐、美观，字母的大小和字母之间的距离要匀称。英语书写有圆体、意大利、手写印刷体等字体。
一手漂亮的英文字令人赏心悦目，肯定为作文加分，但是在考试那么紧张的情况下，去花大量的时间去写意大利体，似乎有点不切实际。因此，我建议学生还是模仿经济实惠的印刷手写体，每个字母向右倾斜5度，且倾斜度都要大致保持一致，如下图：
写英文字母要掌握正确笔顺。如字母i，应该先写下面的部分，然后再打点。有的学生却按写汉字的习惯从上到下写，写快了，就会把点和下面的十笔连在量起，显得十分别扭。字形t应为两笔。不少人却将两笔合成一笔，看上去不像t，倒像l或是e，难以辨认。另外，把r写成v，把q写成把g，把k写成h等等，都是中学生书写中常见的毛病。
不少人在四线三格的练习纸上书写尚有规矩，能按字母的占格、高低和大小要求书写，但在白纸或横线纸上书写，却显得十分幼稚拙劣。字母或跳上跳下，或一律写成同一高度，占上中两格的字母与占中下两格的字母完全没有高低之别。这些现象都要防止。
另外，书写时还要注意词与词之间要保持一定的距离，不能紧靠在一起。字母之间的连写也应该按照习惯，不能随意乱来。例如，下面这篇学生作文的书写就没有把单词之间的距离保持在适当的位置。
二、高级句型：增强语气的几种表达
考生作文成绩欠佳的主要原因除了准确性和连贯性差之外，语句软弱无力也是不容忽略的一个方面。因此在英语写作教学中，如何增强语句表现力的问题必须引起我们足够的重视，以提高学生写作的表达质量。
下面是一篇关于校车事故的一篇作文题目，那么，学生在写作中如何表达出对校车事故频发而痛心疾首的强烈情感呢？

【优秀习作】
Making mistakes isan inevitable part of life. While some people may deny thepresence of mistakes, the efforts to avoid them onlyend in failure. In fact, what really matters is howto accept and make use of mistakes.
It doesn't help toregret or cry over the faults, which just makes thesituation much worse. We should calm down and analyzethe causes in the first place. Finding what really contributes tothe problem will enable us to adopt right strategies tomanage mistakes in a constructive way. Winners don't makefewer mistakes in their lives. They are just better at seeingthose mistakes as challenges and opportunities to develop their ownpotentials. By trial and error they aregetting closer to their goal.
In conclusion,don't let mistakes hold you back from taking risks andchallenging yourself. Instead, we should turn theminto the stepping stones to success. Just as a saying goes,he who makes no mistake makes nothing. (158words)
