短文写作中的题目我们也可以称作命题写作。

一、英语写作训练的要点
英语写作最重要的一点是用英语思维进行写作。
通病：习惯于先把作文翻译成汉语，然后逐字翻译成英语。
在理解和使用英语词汇时，要注意英语和汉语在意义上的不同。
中文：我得努力学习，要不我就要落后了。
错译：Ishouldstudyhard，otherwiseIwouldbebackward.
正译：Ishouldstudyhard，otherwiseIwouldlagbehind.
说明：“backward”是形容词，意为落后的，向后的或缓慢的，(表示性质);“lagbehind”是动词词组，意为落后，落在后面(表示动作或行为)。
中文：你不要学我样，你身体没有我好。(指：情况不一样。)
错译：Neverlearnfromme，sinceyouarenotsostrongasIam.
正译：Don'tfollowmyexample，sinceyouarenotsostrongasIam.
说明：“Learnfromsb.”指“向某人学习”，并不是“照我一样做”的意思。
错译：Duetothetime，Ishouldstophere.
正译：Astimeisup(or：limited)，IamafraidIhavetostophere.
说明：“dueto…”是“由于……之故”而导致某种结果的意思，本句用dueto不合逻辑。
accept和receive，permit和promise，callone'sname和callonebyname.
accept收到(接受)
receive收到(不一定接受)
permit允许别人做某事
promise允许为别人做某事
callone'sname骂某人
callonebyname叫某人的姓名
所以我们在从事英语写作训练的时候：
1.要明确英语写作的意义。
2.要学习和掌握必要的写作理论。
3.要通过大量的阅读，新概念第二册比较适合。
二、如何限题和写提纲
定题：选择恰当的题目。
命题：“Teaching”
过于笼统：Teaching
仍较广泛：TeachingNumberConcept
范围缩小：TeachingNumberConcepttoChildren
范围明确：TeachingNumberConcepttoChildrenatFive
命题“ChildBehaviour”
过于笼统：ChildBehaviour
仍较广泛：HowChildrenPlayTogether
范围缩小：HowGirlsPlayTogether
范围明确：PatternsofPlayAmongPrimarySchoolGirlStudents
写提纲的好处：1.可以扩大思路
2.可以按次序排好素材
4.明确写作的中心思想
“TheAdvantagesofTravel(旅行的益处。)”
根据这一题目，在构思时可能会想到以下内容：
1.seeingstrangeanddifferentthings(看到各种奇异的东西)
2.meetingpeoplewithdifferentinterests(遇到有各种不同兴趣的人)
3.keepingusfitandhealthy(有助于身体健康)
4.enjoyingbeautifulscenery(欣赏各地美景)
5.understandinghowpeoplelive(了解人们怎样生活)
6.visitingfamouscitiesandscenicspots(浏览名城和名胜)
7.tastingdifferentfoodsandlocalflavours(品尝各地风味)
8.gettingideasoftheconditionsandcustomsofotherpeople(了解各地风土人情)
9.arousingtheferventloveforourmotherland(激起对祖国的热爱)
10.gainingknowledgeofgeographyandhistory(获得地理历史知识)
11.makingonelessnarrowminded(使人心胸开阔)
12.gainingotherknowledge(获得其他方面知识)
13.seeingplacesreadofinbooks(目睹曾在书上读到过的地方)
