英语段落写作是英语写作中重要组成部分。段落写作这一部分写好了，从某一方面可以直接影响到文章的质量以及文章的表现力。既然段落写作如此重要，那么我们怎么样才能写好一个段落呢?要写好一个段落，我们应该从以下几个方面入手：

首先，应该掌握一些段落写作的技巧。这些技巧包括如何把握主题句，确定主题句之后该怎样发展这个段落，从而至其他的句子能够互相连贯，紧扣主题。

其次，要有充分的段落写作方面的训练。段落写作的训练达到一定的量之后，才能够准确把握发展这个段落的力度，不至于偏离主题句。而发展段落一般手法有例子和细节、对比的、类比、分类、因果、定义和过程这七种方法。

最后，段落的展开技巧与实际的训练结合，从而将个人写作能力提升到一个阶段。段落的展开技巧一般有段落主题借助具体的细节和原因展开、段落主题借助于一系列的例子展开、段落主题借助于一系列的事情展开、段落主题借助于问题-解决模式展开和段落展开借助于一系列的时间顺序的动作这五大方法。
