1．一个生动的开场白：用一两个简短的段落揭示作者的姓名、书名，以及有关作者的简要信息，如过去的作品、曾获得的荣誉。
2．如果是小说，对情节做简要勾勒，如果作品不是小说，写明写作目的和主题。
3．书评作者对此书优缺点的评论。
4．用一个总结性的语句式段落使读者对此书有一个总体印象。 开篇
写好开篇段落对书评来说非常有挑战性，其目的是抓住读者的注意力，使他们产生读这篇文章的热切愿望。
开篇之前，先做一下笔记，问自己一些问题：
·贯穿此书的主题是什么？
·与同类书相比，这本书的特色是什么？
·这本书对我产生了什么影响？通过回答上述问题，你可能就知道该如何人手了。
一般来说，作者姓名和书名应该在第一段中出现，但有时你可能会从书中最重要的观点说起，犹如书评专门评论该书的主题。文章开头用简短的语言表明作者对本书的总体印象是个不错的办法，一两个形容词就够了，过后你可在此基础上扩展。
摘要
人们是为了判断是否想读这本书才去看书评的，因此你应让他们对书的内容有所了解。小说的评论可对主要人物作些介绍，但只需简要点出部分情节即可。没有比评论者泄露了小说结局更让作者和准读者更恼火的事了！通常我简介小说的前三分之一或前半部分情节，忽略副情节。在冲突即将解决时，某个人物要做出决定时，或一个主要的活动场景即将开始时，戛然而止。

老人与海（The Old Man and the Sea）英文书评(book reviews)
这本书讲了古巴(Cuba)的一个名叫圣地亚哥的老渔夫，独自一个人出海打鱼，在一无所获(to achieve nothing)的84天之后钓到了一条无比巨大的马林鱼。这是老人从来没见过也没听说过的比他的船还长两英尺的一条大鱼。鱼的劲(vigor)非常大，拖(to drag)着小船漂流了整整两天两夜，老人在这两天两夜中经历了从未经受的艰难考验，终于把大鱼刺(to stab)死，拴(to tie)在船头(the bow)。然而这时却遇上了鲨鱼(a shark)，老人与鲨鱼进行了殊死搏斗(put up a good fight)，结果大马林鱼被鲨鱼吃光了，老人最后拖回只剩下一副光秃秃bald的鱼骨架(a fish skeleton)和一身(all over the body)的伤。最后却得到了人们的赞赏。
《老人与海》完全可能成为当代一部名副其实的经典作品。厄纳斯特·海明威的这部短篇小说处理方法谨严(exact)、注意时间和地点的统一(unite)，行文(a style of writing)简洁而内涵(intension)很深(deep)。另外，和极大多数巨著(a great work)一样，海明威的这篇小说读起来可有不止一层的意思。一方面，这是一个激动人心的带有悲剧性(tragedy)的冒险故事。故事讲到一个精神沮丧(depress)的老渔人，在他对职业的自豪感的支持之下，冒险远航至墨西哥湾流并在那里钓住了一条该水域中从未见过的最大的马林鱼。故事接着说到他孤零零地、在因奋力叉住这条大鱼而耗尽了力气之后，被迫投入一场和一群海盗似的鲨鱼的绝望的搏斗之中，结果是那些鲨鱼只给他留下了猎获物的一具骨架。另一方面，这又是一个寓言，它描述
