作文是各类英语考试中得分较低的一种题型，究其原因，除了平时缺少练习之外，同学们还缺乏作文得分技巧。 同学们需要掌握一定的作文模板和熟悉大量的话题作文，纯模板会很僵化缺乏弹性，而话题作文可以更好的拓展思维，例如话题写作160篇里的高分佳句很实用。考研英语写作的提高需要大量细节的分析和磨练，其中一个重要的主题是关于英语创作的重要规律--seeking variety (追求语言丰富多变)。 如何追求变化？
一、注意段首句式的变化
图画作文的段首句往往是"如图所示"或"从图画中可以看出"之类，下面为经常采用的一些句型： As is shown in the picture, 和As can be seen from the picture,是经常能看到的首句话，但是模板迹象过于明显，所以应该稍加升级，比如添加一些结构和修饰语： It is of considerable interest to see in the bizarre picture that… 当然还可以添加一些引出话题的句子： No>
二、适当用被动替换主动
这样能更客观地反映事实。
句子开头不要总是用we / I (比如写结尾时不用we should pay attention to而用Attent
ion should be paid to. ) 举个经典结尾的例子：It is, therefore, high time that some applicable approaches were implemented by the service industry like that. By doing so，its competitive edge will be sharpened effectively。
三、一句话用不同的句式来表达
为了加强同学们对语法知识在写作中的灵活应用，下面给出一句话的14种句式及语言
调整的效果，内容上没有太大差异，但是请同学们仔细辨别每句话所侧重的句式：
1.使用表语从句
The picture shows two people reading the announcement>
2.使用介词短语
In the picture, two people are reading the announcement and they are being shocked at the message of "a sale of dead bodies">
3.使用疑问句
The picture shows two people reading the announcement>
4.使用原因状语从句

In the picture, reading the message of a ‘sale of the dead bodies" advertised>
8.使用主动语态
In the picture, the announcement>
9.使用There be 结构

10.使用倒装句

11.使用定语从句
In the picture, the announcement>
12.强调句

14. 尽量复杂作文中的句式
