前言：

咳咳，做这个“【Fundamental Course of Writtng】基础写作每日一讲”的目的，一则是我自己再好好复习一遍effective writting，二则让同学们对effective writting从头到尾好好认识一遍

无论是iBT还是GRE,GMAT的写作，虽然考察点各有不同，但是都是基于一个effective writting基础之上的。其重要性，就是永远占据了各类写作考试最基础的2/3之多的分数，尤其在ibt中，更是几乎全构架在这个之上；至于GRE，中国学生其实不缺乏思想，只要做好introspect和retrospect，所有上层建筑都不难，唯独十万余种的部队经常被卡到3分的瓶颈，为什么呢？文法！基础！而基础是什么呢？呵呵——effective writting。

ef是所有大学都要开的课，GRE这样的graduate的考试，既是构建于此之上的，试想我们一味得追求思维，逻辑，但是不先从基础上做到graduate，去种无根之木，去寻无源之水，阴谋啊，这是一个阴谋......

这个每日一谈每天都会进行effective writting一个部分的讲解

我力求保持英文原版只做少量注解为的是大家能多多体会这些原汁原味的基础写作训练整体下来包括：

【Coherence】
【Conciseness】
【Coping with Writing Anxiety】
【Creating a Thesis Statement】
【Developing an Outline】
【Essay Writing】
【Establishing Arguments】
【Logic in Argumentative Writing】
【Writer's Block Writer's Anxiety】

等等三十余个分项

如果大家能每天抽出十几分钟好好看一下并且结合自己的文章进行思考好改进我相信会对你的写作有很大推动作用的

总之加油！
