英语作文的开头和我们写语文作文没什么太大的区别，无非是为了顺理成章的引出我们要写的下文或者想要表达的观点，针对这一情况，我们可以大体发现，作文开头无非可以归纳为以下几类：
1、直接抛出观点类
这一方法就是开门见山，直接了当地提出自己对要讨论的问题的看法。模板句型：
1 、now people in growing/ignificant number are beginning/coming to realize/accept/(be aware) that.。.
2、now people become increaingly aware/conciou of the importance of ..。.
2、故事引出类
这种方法就是先讲一个较短的、与文章内容稍有关联的故事来引发读者的兴趣，引出文章的主题。模板句型：
1 、i have a friend who ... hould he ....? uch a dilemma we are often confronted with in our daily life。
2、 once upon a time, there lived a man who .... thi tory may be (unbelievable)， but it till ha a realitic ignificance now。
3、观点对立引出类
这种开头是针对一个问题先给出其他人的不同看法，然后提出自己的看法或者偏向于某一看法，适用于有争议性的主题。模板句型：
1、 when aked about..., the vat/overwhelming majority of people ay that …. but i think/view a bit differently。WWw.hAOZuowEn.com
2 、now, it i commonly/generally/widely believed/held/acknowledged that..... they claim/ believe/argue that ... but i wonder/doubt whether...。.
4、引用名句类
这类开头是先引出名人名言或者有代表性的看法，来引出文章要展开论述的观点，在实际写作中运用还是比较多的。模板句型：
1、 "education i not complete with graduation." thi i the opinion of a great american philoopher. now more and more people hare hi opinion。
2 、we often hear uch traditional complain a thi "...."。
5、现象分析类
这一类开头是先引出要剖析的现象或者问题，然后在进行分析评论。
1、recently the iue of the problem/phenomenon of ...ha been brought into focu/into public attention。
2、 inflation/corruption/ocial inequality ... i yet another of the new and bitter truth we have to learn to face now/contantly。
