本书是专门为高校大学英语学生编写的英语基础写作教材，也可供英语专业学生、英语写作爱好者使用和参考。英语输出能力的培养是英语教学中非常重要的一环，而写作输出能力的培养是重中之重。学英语的目的不仅仅是吸收还要学会输出，进行跨文化的交流。英语写作长期以来都是本科甚至研究生学习英语的难点，也是英语教学中的一个重点。本书强调理论与实践相结合，以逐步提高为原则。

本书分四个章节，从句子、段落到短文再到大学英语四、六级写作，在注重写作教学的系统性和实用性的基础上，附加了英语写作范文的评析，便于学生从理性思辨的角度审视作文，从而更好地进行英语写作。本书的许多内容如四、六级作文、句子写作、段落写作等都曾在大学英语、研究生英语写作中尝试过，它是作者多年教学的总结与结晶。
