(一)掌握技巧：
(1)注意篇章结构，合理布局
开始部分(openingparagraph)——说出文中的要点、核心问题。
正文部分(Bodyparagraphs)——围绕主题开展叙述、讨论。
结尾部分(concludingparagraphs)——对全文的总结和概括。
要做到全文中心突出、段落之间必须是有机地联系，内容完整、连贯。前后呼应，祛除与主题无关的内容.
(2)确定主题句
主题句是对全文的概括，是文章的主旨。它能在文章中起到“画龙点睛”的作用。通常主题句出现在一篇文章的开头，而后，全文对主题句所提出的内容进行解释，扩展。
写主题句应注意以下几点：
归纳出你要写的文章的几个要点
提炼出一句具有概括性的话
主题句应具有可读性，抓住、吸引读者。
(二)巧用连接词
要想使文章有整体性、连贯性，就要学会正确使用连接词
