Re: [Ask ] What should I do
In my opinion, two ways should be involved in writing English quite well.
Because we are not native speakers, we might not explain our thoughts clearly
in English way. We might encounter a situation that Chinese people could
understand our points easily, but foreigners couldn't catch them easily.
It doesn't mean your English is poor. We need to practice in thinking in
English way.
The first of all, you could use many structures to write the essay. Maybe you
could refer to Academic Writing.
(1)Short texts, e.g. essays, are normally organised in the form:
Introduction > Main body > Conclusion.
(2)Long texts, dissertations and articles, may include:
Abstract > Contents > Introduction > Main body > Case study > Discussion >
Findings > Conclusion > Acknowledgements > Bibliography/ References > Appendics
Anyway, sometimes you could write in English quite well, but not smoothly due
to the ambiguous structure. It seems that you gotta write the 2000-5000 words
eassy. The structure should be involved in this. However, it is not enough.
Secondly, if you want your articles could be read comfortably. Please don't use
too complicated sentences. It won't show you learned English well, but it might
make your words hard to be read. Enlarging your vocabulary pool and learning
how to use them correctly should be one of the best way to express your points
correctly.
Furthermore, many methods could be used to improve our English ability. I just
think if you wanna improve the writing skills, especially writing essays. The
aforementioned might be a direction for you.
Just my opinions..:) Thanks for your reading.
