Listening Text
Study skills: Writing
In this talk a teacher gives advice to students about writing compositions.
The important point to remember is that everyone can learn to write well.
When you have to write a composition, the first thing to do is write down all your ideas as quickly as possible. If the ideas don’t come to you quickly try asking yourself some questions: When? Where? Who? What? Why? If you can talk over your ideas with a partner. You can do this in English or Chinese’, it doesn’t matter.
Next, see which of the ideas are connected, and put them in the best order. At this stage, cross out any ideas which don’t fit in. You will always have more than enough ideas for your composition.
Some students think that you have to write a long introduction at the beginning of your composition. In fact, this isn’t necessary. Time is short.
Now check the plan for your composition. Is it too long or too short? Do you need more information? If so, you may need to go to your school library. Do you need more examples to make your ideas clear? It is more interesting for your reader if you can introduce examples to show what you mean.
Now write your first composition. When you have finished, read it through again and check the spelling. Is your composition clear? Are any sentences too long? Are the ideas connected together?
Next. ask for another person’s opinion. Show your composition to your teacher or another student. Ask them to point out anything that could be improved.
Finally, correct your work and write out your composition a second time.
When it comes to the exam, you may not be able to go through all these stages. But at least you can follow this programme: First — ideas, then — plan, then — write.
