英语专业考研阅读学习写作的技巧

Reading is to the mind what exercise isto the body. -Richard Steele.读书之于心灵，犹如运动之于身体。如果是为学业、工作就更是得不断提高自己的听说读写译能力。今天小编再给大家分享一些由英美名家提出的通过阅读来提高写作能力的技巧:

一、Read, Observe, and Practice

For a man to write well, there are required three necessaries: to read the best authors, observe the best speakers, and much exercise of his own style.(Ben Johnson）

二、Imitate, Then Destroy

Writing is a difficult trade which must be learned slowly by reading great authors; by trying at the outset to imitate them; by daring then to be original and by destroying ones first productions.(AndrMaurois)

三、Read Critically

When I was teaching writingand I still say itI Taught that the best way to learn to write is by reading. Reading critically, noticing paragraphs that get the job done, how your favorite writers use verbs, all the useful techniques. A scene catches you? Go back and study it. Find out how it works. (Tony Hillerman)

四、Be a Voracious, Loving Reader

When you start reading in a certain way,that's already the beginning of your writing.You're learning what you admire and you are learning to love other writers,the love of other writers is an important first step. To be voracious, loving reader.(Tess Gallagher)

五、Tap Into the World Consciousness

Too many writers are trying to write with too shallow an education. Whether they go to college or not is immaterial. I have met many self-educated people who are much better than I am. The point is that the writer needs a sense of the history of literature to be successful as a writer, and you need to read some Dickens, some Dostoevsky,some Melville, and other great classicsbecause you are part of our world consciousness, and the good writers tap into the world consciousness when they write.( James kisner)

六、Read a Lot, Write a Lot

The real importance of reading is that it creates an ease and intimacy with the process of writing; one comes to the country of the writer with one's papers and identification pretty much in order.

Constant reading will pull you into a place(a mind-set,if you like the phrase)where you can write eagerly and without self-consciousness, it also offers you a constantly growing knowledge of what has been done and what hasnt, what is trite and what is fresh, what works and what just lies there dying( or dead )on the page. The more you read, the less apt you are to make a fool of yourself with your pen or word processor.( Stephen King)
