正確表達
之所以說作文是綜合水平的體現，是因為考生的知識水平、熟練程度、理解深度到底如何，只有作文能夠檢驗出來。單詞背得多的，文章讀得多，在西方文化里浸泡的時間長的，寫出來的文章會脫穎而出。
雖然這方面的水平的提高是只能是長時間努力的結果，但是熟練掌握高考作文時常涉及的各類詞匯，各類表達方式是事半功倍的。
詞匯及其使用
許多學生因為詞匯量的匱乏無法表達題目所要求的內容，而平時博覽群書的考生就不會對文章所涉及的領域感到陌生。對一般考生來說，高考大綱上的詞匯必須全部掌握。因為課內的單詞如果能熟練的運用，就不會出現沒米下鍋的情況。
詞匯擴充
我們在這里僅對有限的幾個領域的詞匯提供一些參考，都是需要學生能夠靈活駕馭的詞匯，此處由于篇幅考慮不做注釋和用法講解：

詞匯用法
作文是對考生對詞匯用法掌握程度的最有效測試。
很多考生死記硬背了學多單詞，但是沒有搞動每一個詞的用法和搭配，實際上等于只能認讀該詞，并沒有真正的學會。想寫出好的作文要在此地用法上好好下一番功夫。
以 Make、get的搭配和動詞短語為例來示范一下一個單詞應該掌握到什么程度：
Make “做，制造”
一些搭配：
make tea 沏茶
make bed 鋪床
make suggestion 提建議
make faces做鬼臉
動詞短語：
1. make it 成功，實現
We were surprised that he made it at last.
2. make sense 有道理
Does your sentence make sense?
3. make the most of 充分利用
It is wise to make the most of the weekend.
還有make friends with交朋友, make a fool of sb.開某人的玩笑， make room for sb.騰地方給某人，make way讓路，make (full)use of 充分利用；等等
注意，make up有五種常用意義，分別是：
1組成；2化妝；3編造；4和解；5彌補。
注意理解下面一篇小文：
My family is made up of my parents and me. Mom, quite into her own look, makes up 5 times a day. When asked how she looks, Dad usually makes up some lies. But sometimes mom can tell and have fight with dad. Soon afterward they will make up, because dad always makes up for her by doing some chores.
Get “取得，成為”
1. get (the message) across 傳達

If you want to get ahead of others, work harder.
3. get away from 遠離

4. get away with 被放過，不受懲罰
