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：Teaching Number Concept

　　范围缩小：Teaching Number Concept to Children

　　范围明确：Teaching Number Concept to Children at Five

　　命题"Child Behaviour"

　　过于笼统：Child Behaviour

　　仍较广泛：How Children Play Together

　　范围缩小：How Girls Play Together

　　范围明确：Patterns of Play Among Primary School Girl Students

　　写提纲的好处：

　　1. 可以扩大思路

　　2. 可以按次序排好素材

　　3. 将文章分成段

　　4. 明确写作的中心思想

　　"The Advantages of Travel (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.seeing strange and different things (看到各种奇异的东西)

　　2.meeting people with different interests (遇到有各种不同兴趣的人)

　　3.keeping us fit and healthy (有助于身体健康)

　　4.enjoying beautiful scenery (欣赏各地美景)

　　5.understanding how people live (了解人们怎样生活)

　　6.visiting famous cities and scenic spots (浏览名城和名胜)

　　7.tasting different foods and local flavours (品尝各地风味)

　　8.getting ideas of the conditions and customs of other people (了解各地风土人情)

　　9.arousing the fervent love for our motherland (激起对祖国的热爱)

　　10.gaining knowledge of geography and history (获得地理历史知识)

　　11.making one less narrow minded (使人心胸开阔)

　　12.gaining other knowledge (获得其他方面知识)

　　13.seeing places read of in books (目睹曾在书上读到过的地方)
