4. 倒叙式开头

　　在有的文章，特别是叙事类的文章中，可以采用倒叙的写作手法，先写出事件的结果，再陈述过程。

　　如“Catching Thieves (捉贼)”的开头可以这样写：

　　I lay in bed in the hospital. I smiled at my friends even though my legs hurt. Do you want to know what happened to me? Let me tell you. It’s a ... story.

　　作文结尾的四种方式

　　1.自然结尾，点明主题

　　随着文章的结束，文章自然而然地结尾。

　　如“Helping the Policeman (帮助警察)”的结尾可以是：

　　The two children were praised by the police and they felt happy.

　　再如“The Tortoise and the Hare(龟兔赛跑)” 的结尾可以是：

　　When the hare got to the tree, the tortoise had already been there。

　　2. 首尾呼应，升华主题

　　在文章的结尾可以用含义较深的话点明主题，深化主题，起到“画龙点睛”的效果。

　　如“I Love My Hometown(我爱家乡)”的结尾可以是：I love my hometown, and I am proud of it.

　　3. 反问结尾，引起深思

　　这种方式的结尾虽然形式是问句，但意义却是肯定的，而且具有一定的强调作用，可引起他人的深思。

　　如 “Learning English can give us a lot of pleasure (学英语能为我们带来许多乐趣)” 的结尾可以是：

　　If we learn English well, we can …Don’t you think learning English is great fun?

　　4. 表达祝愿，阐述愿望

　　这种方式的结尾常出现在书信或演讲稿的文体中，表示对他人的祝福或对将来的展望等。

　　如“A Letter to the Farmers(给农民们的一封信)”的结尾可以是：

　　I hope the farmers' life will be better and better.

　　另外，书信的结尾常有以下形式的祝福语：Best wishes; I wish you a merry Christmas and a happy new year;I wish you have a good time等。
