作文向来是语言类考试的难点，不管中文还是英文都一样，我们需要找到它的原则。小编为大家精心准备了考研英语作文的原则指南，欢迎大家前来阅读。
一、长短句原则
工作还得一张一驰呢，老让读者读长句，累死人!写一个短小精辟的句子，相反，却可以起到画龙点睛的作用。而且如果我们把短句放在段首或者段末，也可以揭示主题：
As a creature, I eat; as a man, I read. Although one action is to meet the primary need of my body and the other is to satisfy the intellectual need of mind, they are in awayquite similar.
如此可见，长短句结合，抑扬顿挫，岂不爽哉?牢记!
强烈建议：在文章第一段(开头)用一长一短，且先长后短;在文章主体部分，要先用一个短句解释主要意思，然后在阐述几个要点的时候采用先短后长的句群形式，定会让主体部分妙笔生辉!文章结尾一般用一长一短就可以了。
二、主题句原则
国有其君，家有其主，文章也要有其主。否则会给人造成“群龙无首”之感!相信各位读过一些破烂文学，故意把主体隐藏在文章之内，结果造成我们稀里糊涂!不知所云!所以奉劝各位一定要写一个主题句，放在文章的开头(保险型)或者结尾，让读者一目了然，必会平安无事!特别提示：隐藏主体句可是要冒险的!
To begin with, you must work hard at your lessons and be fully prepared beforetheexam(主题句). Without sufficient preparation, you can hardly expect to answer all the questions correctly.
三、一 二 三原则
第一部分、第一点、第二点、第三点、第二部分、第一点… 这样的格式条理清楚，考官们也可以通过这些关键性的“标签”来判定你的文章是否结构清楚，条理自然。方法很简单，只要把下面任何一组的词汇加入到你的几个要点前就清楚了。
1)first, second, third, last(不推荐，原因：俗)
2)firstly, secondly, thirdly, finally(不推荐，原因：俗)
3)the first, the second, the third, the last(不推荐，原因：俗)
4)in the first place, in the second place, in the third place, lastly(不推荐，原因：俗)
5)to begin with, then, furthermore, finally(强烈推荐)
6)to start with, next, in addition, finally(强烈推荐)
7)first and foremost, besides, last but not least(强烈推荐)
8)most important of all, moreover, finally
9)on the one hand, on the other hand(适用于两点的情况)
10)for one thing, for another thing(适用于两点的情况)
建议：不仅仅在写作中注意，平时说话的时候也应该条理清楚!
四、短语优先原则
写作时，尤其是在考试时，如果使用短语，有两个好处：其一、用短语会使文章增加亮点，如果老师们看到你的文章太简单，看不到一个自己不认识的短语，必然会看你低一等。相反，如果发现亮点—精彩的短语，那么你的文章定会得高分了。其二、关键时刻思维短路，只有凑字数，怎么办?用短语是一个办法!比如：I cannot bear it.可以用短语表达：I cannot put up with it. I want it.
可以用短语表达：I am looking forward to it.这样字数明显增加，表达也更准确。
五、多实少虚原则
原因很简单，写文章还是应该写一些实际的东西，不要空话连篇。这就要求一定要多用实词，少用虚词。
这里的虚词就是指那些比较大的词。比如我们说一个很好的时候，不应该之说 nice 这样空洞的词，应该使用一些诸如 generous, humorous, interesting, smart, gentle, warm-hearted,hospital 之类的形象词。再比如：
走出房间，general 的词是：walk out of the room
但是小偷走出房间应该说：slip out of the room
小姐走出房间应该说：sail out of the room
小孩走出房间应该说：dance out of the room
老人走出房间应该说：stagger out of the room
所以多用实词，少用虚词，文章将会大放异彩!
六、多变句式原则
1、加法(串联)
都希望写下很长的句子，像个老外似的，可就是怕写错，怎么办，最保险的写长句的方法就是这些，可以在任何句子之间加 and, 但最好是前后的句子又先后关系或者并列关系。比如说：
I enjor music and he is fond of playing guitar.如果是二者并列的，我们可以用一个超级句式：
Notonlythefurcoatissoft,butitisalsowarm.(notonly…butalso…)
其它的短语可以用：besides, furthermore, likewise, moreover
2、转折(拐弯抹角)
批评某人缺点的时候，我们总习惯先拐弯抹角说说他的优点，然后转入正题，再说缺点，这种方式虽然阴险了点，可毕竟还比较容易让人接受。所以呢，我们说话的时候，只要在要点之前先来点废话，注意二者之间用个转折词就够了。
The car was quite old, yet it was in excellent condition. Thecoatwasthin,but it was warm.
更多的短语：despite that, still 仍, however 然而, nevertheless 然而, in spite of 不管, despite不管, notwithstanding .虽然
3、因果(so, so, so)
讲故事的时候我们总要追求先后顺序，先什么，后什么，所以然后这个词就变得很常见了。其实这个词表示的是先后或因果关系。
The snow began to fall, so we went home.
更多短语：then, therefore, consequently, accordingly, hence, as a result, for this reason, so that
4、失衡句(头重脚轻，或者头轻脚重)
有些人脑袋大，身体小，或者有些人脑袋小，身体大，虽然我们不希望长成这个样子，可如果真的是这样了，也就必然会吸引别人的注意力。文章中如果出现这样的句子，就更会让考官看到你的句子与众不同。其实就是主语从句，表语从句，宾语从句的变形。
举例：This is what I can do. Whether he can go with us or not is not sure.
同样主语、宾语、表语可以改成如下的复杂成分：When to go, Why he goes away…
5、附加(多此一举)
如果有了老婆，总会遇到这样的情况，当你再讲某个人的时候，她会插一句说，我昨天见过他;或者说，就是某某某，如果把老婆的话插入到我们的话里面，那就是定语从句和同位语从句或者是插入语。
The man whom you met yesterday is a friend of mine. I don’t enjoy that book you are reading.
Mr liu, our oral English teacher, is easy-going.
其实很简单，同位语--要解释的东西删除后不影响整个句子的构成;定语从句—借用之前的关键词并且用其重新组成一个句子插入其中，但是 whom or that 关键词必须要紧跟在先行词之前。
6、排比(排山倒海句)
文学作品中最吸引人的地方莫过于此，如果非要让你的文章更加精彩的话，那么我希望你引用一个个的排比句，一个个得对偶句，一个个的不定式，一个个地词，一个个的短语，如此表达将会使文章有排山倒海之势!
Whether your tastes are modern or traditional, sophisticated or simple, there is plenty in London for you.
Nowadays, energy can be obtained through various sources such as oil, coal, natural gas,solar heat, the wind and ocean tides.
We have got to study hard, to enlarge our scope of knowledge, to realize our potentials and to pay for our life. (气势恢宏)
要想写出如此气势恢宏的句子非用排比不可!
七、挑战极限原则
既然是挑战极限，必然是比较难的，但是并非不可攀。
原理：在学生的文章中，很少发现诸如独立主格的句子，其实也很简单，只要花上 5 分钟的'时间看看就可以领会，它就是分词的一种特殊形式，分词要求主语一致，而独立主格则不然。比如：
The weather being fine, a large number of people went to climb the Western Hills.
Africa is the second largest continent, its size being about three times that of China.
如果你可以写出这样的句子，不得高分才会奇怪。
考研英语小作文万能模板一、道歉信
道歉信是由于自己的疏忽失误而向对方表达歉意并出于诚意写出具体弥补办法。第一段首先亮出写作目的并简单阐述该物品的状态：I am writing to make an apology to you for+句子(表明事件因由)。
第二段列出出错的原因及具体补救办法：To make up my fault, ...... I a token of my apology I sincerely apologize for my careless mistake as well as for any inconvenience thus caused to you.
第三段再一次表达歉意：Once again, I am sorry for my carelessness. Looking forward to your reply.
应用文中的这三类投诉信、建议信、道歉信，每一类都有其写作的范式和具体的内容要求，并且语言要求简单准确，所以这需要大家清楚每一类文章的一些常用语句，在平常积累背诵，在考场上信手拈来。
二、投诉信
投诉信是对于产品、服务等的不满意，进而需要写出自己的意见和要求。第一段需写写信的目的以及自己的一个概括的期望：常用套话比如I venture to write to complain about ……+定语从句;I would be grateful if you could do anything necessary to solve the problem facing me.

推荐信可以推荐一个人、一个地方、一本书、一部电影。在信中表明推荐的内容、原因及进一步的沟通。
第一段概括说要推荐的内容：I am writing to you to recommend .I have sufficient reasons to introduce this to you and I dare say this is the best I have ever seen.
第二段叙述推荐的东西的价值，可以从表面和深层两方面来写：This movie/book/city的主题或城市坐落于哪里。What is more, 情节吸引人、里边景色引人入胜。Finally, this movie will definitely change our attitude toward this world and the people around us. We will learn that......
第三段总结句：Therefore I don’t hesitate to recommend this to you. I am sure you will enjoy the。
四、辞职信
辞职信内容应包括简单对所在公司及领导的感谢，并表明辞职原因并表达歉意，最后再致歉并送上简单祝福。第一段首先致谢：I am grateful to be employed as 职位+时间。Thank you for your kind attention and I would appreciate the opportunity of having worked here.
第二段表明自己要辞职，列出原因，比如离家远想换到更近的位置;工作不适合自己等等。现在给大家一个例子：However, I regret having to resign from my position. The reason for changing my working plan is that I have expected the job to be interesting and challenging, which turns out to be the opposite. As a young man full of enthusiasm, I therefore decide to quit this job for something else.可以根据自己的具体情况给出自己的理由，切不可千篇一律。
第三段简单表明希望得到允许、歉意及祝福：I sincerely hope that you approve of my resignation. I am sorry for any inconvenience caused. Wish you and your company great success in the future.
五、建议信
一般就某个社会问题或个人问题给出自己的意见或建议，比如环境要改善的谏言;研究生活应该如何进行，等等。分两类建议信，一类写给机构，语言要正式严谨;而如果写给熟人，则语言可以随意一些。第一段概括写出写信的大致内容：I am writing here to provide some advice to improve......You have asked me for my advice concerning/with regard to......
第二段详述具体的建议，可分条阐述：To begin with,des,over,......
