Trước khi đặt bút viết câu các bạn hãy nghĩ đến mục đích bạn viết câu đó. Thông thường các bạn thường viết để tuyên bố một sự việc, để phỏng đoán hoặc để tóm tắt một vấn đề. Nhưng cũng có lúc bạn cần viết để yêu cầu hoặc để hỏi thông tin.
Qua việc xác định được mục đích viết câu các bạn có thể nhận biết được nên sử dụng kiều câu nào: câu tường thuật, câu nghi vấn, câu cảm thán hay câu mệnh lệnh.
Thông thường câu tường thuật được sử dụng nhiều nhất và các bạn cũng nên dùng kiểu câu này nhiều hơn hẳn so với ba kiểu câu còn lại. Bạn hoàn toàn có thể viết cả một bài tiểu luận hoặc báo cáo mà chỉ dùng kiểu câu tường thuật.
VÍ DỤ
Learning to Teach
In 1987, as a new teacher, I taught adult night school rather badly at first, but learned from my early experiences.
My teaching methods at the time were much different than now. Before the beginning of every class, I copied many pages of notes from various grammar and reading texts onto the blackboard. My students were required to spend a lot of time transcribing these notes.
This activity took much of my class time every evening. Then, with the little time left, I would go around to see individual students and look at their work. One evening, it became clear to me that a some of my students were frustrated by my approach to teaching. Not too long after, they had quit my class.
At the time, I felt a little upset, but wasn’t too clear on why this had happened. It seemed to me then that the material I had presented was well chosen and important. The grammar came from a good and humourously written text, the reading from an approved GED textbook. And some of my students had stayed, dutifully transcribing my notes night after night. They were happy enough, it seemed to me then. Although I knew that there was something wrong in my approach, I wasn’t quite sure exactly what it was.
A teacher’s lessons come with experience, and I now know of what limited value my classroom teaching had been in those early days. The technology of the classroom has changed, but that wasn’t the real problem. My real worry had been about how to fill up the time, how to make sure the students were busy. Little did I know how much fun my interaction with students in group discussion would be, and how essential to their progress and enjoyment. Now I only wish I could go back in time, knowing what I know today, and meet them again, and really teach them well.
A teacher’s job features never-ending revelations of human nature and of how people learn. Certainly, I will never be bored as long as I continue in this work.
Các bạn có thể dễ dàng nhận ra bài tiểu luận trên chỉ dùng kiểu câu tường thuật nhưng không ảnh hưởng gì đến kết cấu và ngữ nghĩa cũng như nội dung biểu đạt của bài.
Câu nghi vấn thường được dùng trong những đoạn hội thoại. Còn bài tiểu luận hoặc báo cáo sẽ không sử dụng câu nghi vấn. Tuy nhiên một dạng đặc biệt của câu nghi vấn là câu hỏi tu từ (câu hỏi đưa ra không nhằm mục đích hỏi, không yêu cầu người đọc phải trả lời) lại là một công cụ rất hữu hiệu để giới thiệu đề tài hoặc vấn đề mới của bài luận. Nhưng bạn cũng đừng nên lạm dụng kiểu câu này vì nếu sử dụng quá nhiều sẽ phản tác dụng.
VÍ DỤ
How can people have hope when we tell them that they have no recourse, if they run afoul of the state justice system?
Câu cảm thán được dùng phổ biến trong những bài diễn văn và đôi khi tiểu thuyết cũng sử dụng loại câu này. Nhưng hơn 200 năm nay loại câu này gần như biến mất trong những bài viết học thuật. Trong những bài viết học thuật bạn không nên sử dụng câu cảm thán trừ khi bạn muốn trích dẫn trực tiếp câu nói đó.
Trong trường hợp ấy bạn hãy lưu ý rằng cuối câu cảm thán hãy đặt dấu chấm than để kết thúc câu.
VÍ DỤ
What a piece of work is a man! how noble in reason! how infinite in faculty! in form and moving how express and admirable! in action how like an angel! in apprehension how like a god!
(William Shakespeare, Hamlet)
Ngoài ra các bạn cũng không nên sử dụng câu mệnh lệnh trong bài viết học thuật. Trong trường hợp bạn dùng loại câu này thì cũng chỉ nên là những câu lệnh nhẹ nhàng, chính vì vậy nó sẽ được kết thúc bởi dấu chấm câu bình thường chứ không phải là dấu chấm than.
VÍ DỤ
Take me out to the ball game,
Take me out with the crowd.
Buy me some peanuts and Cracker Jack,
I don't care if I never get back.
