写主题句的要点包括:
1)
主题句共分两部份:
Topic+ControllingIdea
例如:
Smokingcigarettesishazardoustoyourhealth.
Topic
ControllingIdea
2)
主题句不能太含糊,范围太大,令人不明白你的重点;
若主题句太细致,则很难再去阐述或讨论下去,所以要在限定范围内展开你的话题。
Exerciseisgoodforyou.(toogeneral)
Aerobicexerciseisgoodforyourhealth.(suitable)
Drivingacarcanbehazardous.(toogeneral)
Drunkdrivingishazardous.(suitable)
3)
主题句可放在段落之首,中间或是最后,也可隐藏于句中,视乎你想怎样表达。
不过,很多时候,在开首写出主题句的方式,较容易引起读者的注意,同时,便于环绕中心主题铺陈开展下文,引导读者了解段落大意。
4)
主题句必须表达你对该题目的独特见解,所持态度,或是理据所在,才能吸引读者继续看下去。

当你决定了主题句(Topicsentence)后,下一步便是提出论点,支持或说明你的主题句,包括:
Examples,information,evidence,factsetc.

这段落的中心思想说明:
“Theadvantagesofthefinalexamination”。
首句先点明主旨,并以戏剧班为例,加强主题的说服力,每句的意思都环绕着这个中心开展,作出比较,最后一句撮要本段意思。
现以表列出此段之结构,令大家更容易明白。

第三课:
Unity&
Coherence
Unity统一性
段落中每一句均须与此段的主题相关,并提供数据来支持主题,句子间必须先后有序,合乎逻辑,否则便会欠缺统一性。
当你写下一段落时,必须检查每句的内容是否依据主旨,如果不是的话,便要修改或移到另一段。
Learningaforeignlanguagehaschanged.Notlongago,studentswouldsitwithpeninhand,writingthebasicformsofalanguage,learningstructurestheywouldneverbeabletospeak.Inthatsameclassroomtoday,pensandnotebookshavebeenputaway.Thespokensoundsofforeigntonguefilltheroom.Todaythelastskilllearned---writingaforeignlanguage---comesasanaturalandpossiblepartofthetotallanguage-learningprocess.Yet,justafewyearsago,thelastskilllearnedwasthefirstskillmasteredtoday---speakingaforeigntongue.Tovisitsomeforeigncountries,travelershavetoapplyforvisas.
Learningaforeignlanguagehaschanged.
*不统一句子:
Tovisitsomeforeigncountries,travelershavetoapplyforvisas.
由以上段落可见每句均围绕主旨而发展,主题句:
「学习外国语言已经改变了」,但当中有一句:
「Tovisitsomeforeigncountries,travelershavetoapplyforvisas.」则是说申请护照的,明显地不合此段主题learningaforeignlanguage,所以必须移走此句,才使本段意思归一。
Coherence连贯性
段落除了须要统一性及文字流畅外,还要句与句,字与字之间有连贯性,要达到此点,便须作出适当排序,如果一段落内句子不统一,则即使有连贯性也没用,反之,若没有连系的句子乱成一团,就算全部与主旨有关,也是令读者看不懂,所以,要做好构段,unity及coherence二者缺一不可。
要令一段落有连贯性,可使用transitionalwords,现以第二课的练习题说明之:
从以上段落中,可以找到一些transitionalwords,即「Forexample,Besides,Moreover,Asaresult,」用以增加句子之间的连贯性,令段落安排更有次序,而透过这些转折词及字,令读者亦易于明白和找到支持主旨的理据SupportingDetails。
