寫作是以語言文字為媒介文化交流的行為，是人類各個領域不可或缺的信息記錄與傳播方式。作為人類凝聚思想，表達情感，加工與傳遞的知識的基本手段，今天和大家分享一下英文寫作指南，一起來看看吧。

　　英文寫作指南

　　1. Read in English 看英文書

　　When you want to master a language, you can never read enough.

　　The easiest way to get started with reading in English rather than your own language is to pick up a non-fiction book on a familiar, interesting topic. Non-fiction tends to be easier to follow than fiction (fiction authors use tricky words to touch their readers' feelings) and reading about a familiar topic makes it easier to guess what the author is trying to say to you when you don't quite understand the words he's using. Don't use a dictionary unless you really have to—just skip the parts you don't understand. If you make your reading feel too much like work, you'll lose the fun in it, and the habit of reading won't last for long.

　　當你想要掌握一門語言，看再多的書也不夠。

　　開始看非母語的英文書，最簡單的方法是挑選一本關于你熟悉且感興趣的話題的非小說類作品。非小說類作品比小說更容易讀懂(因為小說家們通常用一些狡黠的詞匯來引起讀者的共鳴)，而在不怎么理解作者用詞的情況下，閱讀熟悉的話題讓你更容易猜到作者想要表達的意思。若非必要，不要使用字典——跳過你不理解的部分。假如你把看書當成作業(yè)，就會樂趣全無，看書的習慣也不能持久。

　　2. Listen to native speakers 聽英語(精品課)演說

　　If you don't speak English every day, this is rather tricky advice to follow. The Internet comes to rescue here through podcasts and videos from speaking events. Pick your favorite speakers and listen to them deliver their message. You will learn not only about how they use the language, but also how to captivate the audience, and a bit about the topic at hand.

　　假如你不是每天都說英語，這將是個不大好辦的建議。在這一點上，互聯(lián)網幫上了忙，它可以提供播客和演講比賽的視頻。選擇你喜歡的演說者，聽聽他們如何傳達信息。不單能學習他們使用語言的方法，還可以學習怎樣吸引觀眾，并對正在討論的這個話題產生一定的了解。

　　3. When writing in English, think in English 運用英語思維寫作

　　This is one of the biggest things that separates a decent foreign language writer from a lousy one. The lousy writer thinks in his own language and then tries to translate his thoughts to English. But that simply doesn't work: The idioms, grammar rules, and cultural differences make text written in this manner sound clumsy and unnatural.

　　這是區(qū)別外語(課程)寫作者水平優(yōu)劣的最關鍵因素之一。糟糕的作者用母語思考，然后試圖將他的想法翻譯成英文。但顯然這行不通：習慣用語、語法結構和文化差異使這種方式寫出來的文章看起來拙劣而不自然。

　　4. Write 多寫多練

　　The best way to learn anything is by throwing yourself out there and practicing. In fact, I would give you the same advice even if you were considering writing in your native language. But of course, it's even more important when writing in some other language.

　　When you are just starting out with your blogging, you should write something every day to really get your writing routine developed. After a while it's okay to drop the pace a bit—although even then, if you want to become the best at what you do, keeping up the habit of daily writing helps a lot.

　　Write in different styles: lists, humorous posts, serious posts, interviews, and if you have the time, even text that is completely unrelated to your blog. Just to get more practice.

　　最好的學習方法就是全身心地投入其中，然后不斷練習。事實上，即使在用母語寫作方面，我也會給你同樣的建議。但當然，用其他語言寫作時，這點更重要。

　　剛開始寫博客時，你應該每天都寫些東西以真正形成自己的寫作習慣。一段時間后，適當放緩速度也無妨——即使到了那個時候，如果你想做到最好，繼續(xù)保持每天寫作的習慣會很有幫助。

　　寫不同風格的文章：列表、幽默文、嚴肅文及采訪等，假如有時間的話，甚至可以是和你博客完全沒有關聯(lián)的文章。筆頭一定要勤。
