1、卷面要清爽整潔，盡量不要涂改
卷面整潔的專升本作文分數一般都不會太低，閱卷老師喜好閱讀字跡工整的文章，讓人看上去舒服的卷面，應盡量減少修改，如果字體優美的話就更占優勢了。同學們平常要多寫多練，經常謄抄一些英語作文范文美文，這樣不僅在考試寫作文的時候能信手拈來下筆如有神，日積月累的練習也能寫得一手好字。
專升本作文還應堅決杜絕拼寫錯誤的詞匯。如果考生有拿不準的單詞應盡量替換為熟悉的單詞。如果有拼寫錯誤的單詞不僅會因此扣分，還會影響整體作文分數的等級。
2、注意篇章結構，合理布局
開始部分(opening paragraph)——說出文中的要點、核心問題。
正文部分(Body paragraphs)——圍繞主題開展敘述、討論。
結尾部分(concluding paragraphs)——對全文的總結和概括。
法國著名短篇小說家契訶夫說過：“寫作的技巧不是寫作的技巧，而是……刪掉寫得不好的地方的技巧。”要做到全文中心突出、段落之間必須是有機地聯系，內容完整、連貫。前后呼應，去除與主題無關的內容。
3、確定主題句
主題句是對全文的概括，是文章的主旨。它能在文章中起到“畫龍點睛”的作用。通常主題句出現在一篇文章的開頭，而后，全文對主題句所提出的內容進行解釋，擴展。
寫主題句應注意以下幾點：
?、贇w納出你要寫的文章的幾個要點
?、谔釤挸鲆痪渚哂懈爬ㄐ缘脑?/p>
?、壑黝}句應具有可讀性，抓住、吸引閱卷老師。
4、善用實詞
專升本英語作文應多用實詞，少用虛詞。比如在形容一個人很好的時候，不要總用nice這樣太過簡單空洞的詞匯。應盡量多使用一些諸如generous，humorous，interesting，smart，gentle，warm-hearted之類的形容詞。善用這些實詞會將你的作文等級大大提升。
5、巧用連接詞
專升本作文中如果長句的連詞應用得當，會成為加分的亮點。要想使文章有整體性、連貫性，就要學會正確使用連接詞，下面為同學們例舉一些常用的詞匯：
表示羅列增加
First, second, third,First, then / next, after that / next, finallyFor one thing … for another…,On (the) one hand…on the other hand,Besides / what’s more / in addition / furthermore / moreover / another / also,Especially / In particular,
表示時間順序
now, at present, recently,after, afterwards, after that, after a while, in a few days,at first, in the beginning, to begin with,later, next, finally,immediately, soon, suddenly, all of a sudden, at that moment, as soon as, the momentform now on, from then on,at the same time, meanwhile,till, not…until, before, after, when, while, as during,
表示解釋說明

表示轉折關系
but, however, while, though, or, otherwise, on the contrary, on the otherhand, in contrast, despite, in spite of, even though, except (for), instead, of course, after all,
表示并列關系
or, and, also, too, not only … but also, as well as, both… and, either …or, neither …nor
表示因果關系

表示舉例

表示比較

表示目的

表示強調

表示概括歸納
in a word, in short, in brief, on the whole, generally speaking, in my opinion, as far as I know, As we all know, as has been stated, as I have shown, finally, at last, in summary, in conclusion,
6、巧妙變換句式
例如：I think that...... 賓語從句，是考生最常使用的句式。如果變換成另一種句式I have a thought that......同位語從句，立刻讓人眼前一亮，為作文平添光彩。
還比如：I hear that也是很多考生常用的句式。如果換成It is reported that...... 或者There is a piece of news that 同樣的意思，卻明顯體現出了考生知識運用的差距。后者明顯分數會更高!
在批改過上萬份同學們英語作文中，經常能發現一些將中文生硬地翻譯成英文的表達法。有一句話叫做“立志如山，行道如水”，寫英文作文，一定要有決心把它 寫好，有信心把意思表達清楚，這是“立志如山”;但關鍵是遇到問題時要有個靈活的態度，能像流水一樣變通解決問題。繞道表達，是寫作中應該常常運用的一種方法。
最后，為同學們例舉一些英語作文中的常用句型，希望對同學們有所幫助。
