用好三大句型,提升作文层次
众所周知,要是想得到高考英语作文高分,除了没有重大语法错误之外,还需要在作文中尽可能多且有效地使用较复杂的结构和较高级的词汇。下面三个句型能有效提升英语作文的层次。
1、 非限定性定语从句
非限定性定语从句能将两个原本单独的句子有机地连接起来,非常有效地实现句子的拓展,使句子变得复杂化。例如:
1. I suggest that you participate in more sports activities, which will benefit you both physically and mentally.
2. My suggestion is that you should read some relevant books, which will help you to acquire more knowledge about the history and culture of China.
3. The exhibition, whose theme is environment protection, will be held by the school photography club in the school library on June 5, which is also the World Environment Day.
4. My uncle is a living Lei Feng, from whom I have learned a lot.

3. The reason why I recommend myself as a volunteer is that I have always had the desire to do something to help the children in the poor area.
4. The reason why I recommend the Trip to Mount Tai is that it has been listed as both the World Natural Heritage and the World Cultural Heritage.
3、 not only... but also
Not only ... but also 可以连接两个并列成分,如并列主语(需要注意主谓一致)、并列谓语、并列宾语,以及并列状语。其最高级用法是连接两个并列句,需要注意两点:1)not only置于句首时,前面一句需要部分倒装;2)but also后面一定是一个完整的句子(主谓齐全)。例如:
1. By participating in the activity, not only can you acquire more first-hand knowledge about traditional Chinese culture, but also you can have the wonderful opportunity to make new friends with the participants from all over the country.
2. By taking the Trip to Mount Tai, not only can you appreciate the fantastic scenery while cl
