文章的构建模式英语写作一般包括一个开头段、一至两个扩展段和一个结尾段。开头段和结尾段一般比扩展段短。各种段落的作用、特点和写作方法如下所示。A still tongue makes a wise head.——沉默者有智慧。一、开头段【芝麻开门】开头段一定要语言精练，并且直接切入主题。开头段一般不对主题进行深入的探讨，具体的论证或叙述应该在扩展段进行。一般在开头段写四、五句即可。开头段的作用：概括陈述主题，提出观点或论点，表明写作意图。【写作要点】写开头段时考生应该避免的若干问题:1) 开头偏离主题太远；2) 使用抱歉或埋怨之词句；3) 内容不具体，言之无物；4) 使用不言自明的陈述。【方法例释】写作文时，好多考生也是觉得开头难，其实，写开头段有多种表达方法，如主题句法、提问法、引语法、数据法、背景法、定义法，等等，下面分别讲解开头的几种展开方法:1.主题句法：开篇点明主题，用主题句，然后围绕主题内容进行发展。例如：Now people become increasingly aware of the importance of acquiring a mastery of a foreign language.
