如何写海报

Ⅰ.写作策略探究

海报的特点之一是有一个明确的标题，它一般是一个论述性的疑问句，如“Why should we learn English？”“Why should we do exercise？”接着列举理由，最后得出结论。

海报其实就是议论性文体，首先提出问题，接着列举理由进行论述，最后在所列举的理由的基础上，自然地得出结论。注意列举的理由要与主题有关，且能支持自己的观点，否则降低了论述的力度，不能使人信服，自然就失去了效力。此外，要注意海报是应用文，应用一般现在时态来表述，因为它没有特定的时间范畴。再次，要注意语言措辞得当，是以建议性的语气而不是以命令性的语气来表述。最后得出恰当的结论，使主题得以升华。

Ⅱ.写作题目要求

昨天你们班就“Why should we learn English？”这一话题进行了一场激烈的讨论，结果如下表。请根据表格里的内容写一篇海报。

Title Why should we learn English？

Reasons 1.英语是世界上使用最广泛的语言，大多数商业信件、书籍、杂志都是用英语书写。

2.学好英语可使我们更好地向外国学习先进经验；可以更快、更好地学习现代科学和技术。

3.学好英语能使我们更好地为祖国服务。

4.学习英语有时也是一大趣事。

too much to say that it has become an international language. So I strongly think we should learn English. Firstly, learning English can make life fun. It enables you to watch American movies, read English books and listen to English songs. Moreover, as English is an international language, you will be able to communicate with foreigners when you are on a trip abroad. Traveling will be more interesting that way. Secondly, it is a good idea to make friends with foreigners. In my opinion, it is the best way to improve your English. In addition, it will be fun and it will expand your view of the world. If you make friends with a native speaker, you can practice your spoken English more often and then you can communicate with people around the world. You can also become familiar with the customs and habits of different cultures. However, there are some people who are afraid to make friends with foreigners because they are not confident of their English. However, many foreigners do not care about grammar. They will get your key words in the sentence and figure out the whole meanings. Therefore, it is unnecessary to be afraid to make friends with them; just go ahead! Learning English helps us meet different people and learn more about their culture, thus facilitating mutual understanding and harmony. Briefly said, English is so useful to us that we should all learn it. →Step 6 Homework
