章节摘录

　　An essay is "a short literary composition on a. particular theme or subject" （ Random House Dictionary）. In Webster s Ninth New Collegiate Dictionary, it is defined as "an analytic or interpretative literary composition usually dealing with its subject from a limitedor personal point of view，something resembling such a composition. " The two dictionaries have told us that basically, an essay is a composition on a certain topic, and with a point of view. It is always analytic or interpretative.　It is also called a theme, especially when referring to the students essay.　　An essay is written about one topic or one main idea, just as a paragraph is. The mainide a of essay is expressed in a thesis statement, which is much like the topic sentence in a paragraph. However, the topic of an essay is bigger and more complex than that of a paragraph. A well written thesis statement not only pinpoints the main idea or topic, but al so indicates the major subdivisions of the topic. In other words, it tells both the writer and the reader what the essay is driving home, and what major points are planned to help.　　Developing a theme fully is no easy work, but you can master the technique if you think of writing as a process with three stages　prewriting, writing, and post writing （sometimes known as invention, shaping, and editing）. In practice, the stages always overlap, and the writing process is too recursive, too full of starts and stops and loops backward, to break in to clearly distinguished stages.　In other words, the stages do not constitute a linear process which you can follow step by step.
