五、借助模板，熟悉框架性内容
模板可以用上课时老师给定的，也可以在课堂内容的基础上结合范文归纳总结。模板并不是机械的死记硬背，其使用目的有三点：
1、通过模板的复习，解决每一段大致写什么内容的问题。这样在拿到一篇题目时，不至于花太多的时间构思写作内容上，而是把主要精力放在语言上。
2、模板的复习能够使得大家熟悉英语文章，尤其是应用文部分的写作格式。在现阶段解决这个问题，将有助于良好习惯的形成，从而避免不必要的失分。
3、模板中往往是含有很多好词好句的，背诵模板，也能从很大程度上丰富写作素材。即使今后随着写作能力的上升不再拘泥于模板，其中的好词好句仍然能够成为我们写作时拿分的途径。
六、积累好词好句
在第一步的复习完成后，你对于自己的写作思路已经大致清晰了。现在的问题在于积累的写作素材还不够多，这时建议在阅读中学习写作。可以阅读写作范文、外国报刊乃至阅读真题，寻找那些可以用到模板中，适用范围比较广的句子。
在这一阶段的复习过程中，可以采用翻译的方法练习--即看完一个句子，理解它的中文意思后立刻把英文遮挡起来，尝试着根据中文自己翻译出一个句子。应用这种方法，自己写作过程中的不足就会立刻暴露出来，起到事半功倍的效果。
