雅思寫作提升建議之保證句式多樣性
如果你知道不同的句子類型,你就可以試著多多練習。在眾多句型中,復合復雜句式最難的,不過就算你不懂這個語法,嘗試用一系列的簡單句,復雜句,和復合句相結(jié)合來寫這篇文章,你也可以得到一個很好的分數(shù)。這個關(guān)鍵就在于句子類型和句子長度要多變,這樣寫作文也會比較自然。看一個下面的例子:
Firstly, children watch too much TV. It’s bad for their health. It can make them addicted. They will spend too much time indoors. This can make them fat.
The sentences are all short and could easily be mixed together into more interesting patterns
這個例子就是句子太短,你可以把句子連接在一起,并且得到一個更加有趣的版本。
Firstly, children watch too much TV, which is bad for their health. This habit can cause them to become addicted, resulting in them spending too much time indoors and thus getting fat.
雅思寫作提升建議之牢記固定搭配
學生們在準備雅思考試的時候總會學習很多的詞匯,雅思詞匯對于我們提高對英文的理解是十分有重要的。然而有些時候,知道一個詞語的含義和會使用它還是有一定區(qū)別的。在文章中學習一個單詞會使得你在使用這個詞時更加容易。當你學習詞匯的時候,一定要注意的是什么樣子的搭配會常常在一起。
我們來舉幾個例子:
Verb + thought:
Spare a thought for 想到,替……著想
Spare a thought for all those who are homeless on a cold night like this.
想到那些在寒冷的夜晚中無家可歸的人。
Hear ones thought 聆聽……的想法
Have you given the new proposal any thought yet? We’re keen to hear your thought
你有沒有考慮新提議了嗎?我們渴望聽到你的想法嗎?
The thought just occurs to me that it’s mum’s birthday tomorrow and we haven’t got her a card.
我突然間想到了明天是我媽媽的生日,我們還沒有給她卡片呢。
Gather one’s thought 理理思路
The President was taken aback by the question and took a minute to gather his thoughts.
總統(tǒng)被這個問題嚇了一跳,用一分鐘的時間來整理思路。
Noun + preposition + thought:
great deal of thought 大量思考
Shirley doesn’t devote a great deal of thought to her appearance.
雪莉?qū)λ耐獗頉]有太多想法
school of thought思想派別
One school of thought contends that modern man originated in Central Africa.
一種學派認為現(xiàn)代人類起源于非洲中部。
train of thought 思路,思緒
Sorry, where was I? I’ve lost my train of thought.
對不起,我說到哪里了?我剛剛沒了思路。
雅思寫作提升建議之避免使用really, so, a lot, very等口語化詞
在雅思寫作中,你需要使用學術(shù)語言,你的目標是正式和學術(shù),所以你不要使用較為口語化的really, so , a lot and very.
舉一些例子
Many IELTS candidates think that achieving Band 8.0 in IELTS is very hard.
==> Use a stronger word: Many IELTS candidates think that achieving Band 8.0 in IELTS is difficult
Very good ==> top-notch, splendid, terrific, excellent, magnificent, fabulous, outstanding, etc
Very bad ==> horrible, terrible, outrageous, distressing, awful, etc
Very delicious ==> appetizing, delectable, flavorful, scrumptious, enjoyable, palatable, etc
Robot-driven car is really controversial
==> Robot-driven car is controversial
A lot of IELTS learners share their great tips on IELTS writing, speaking on IELTS Material website.
==> Many/A great number of/ A multitude of IELTS learners……
雅思寫作提升建議之不要在雅思寫作中使用縮略形式
最好寫成以下的樣子:
Don’t ==> do not;Can’t ==> cannot;Mustn’t ==> must not;Couldn’t ==> could not
Wouldn’t ==> would not;Isn’t ==> is not;Haven’t ==> have not;Hasn’t ==> has not
雅思寫作提升建議之避免使用There is/ There are
當你在寫作的時候,努力將你的想法用一種簡潔的方法呈現(xiàn)出來。有些詞語是不需要的,這樣可以使你的句子更加直戳重點。舉例:
There are many issues that students have to face at university
==> Students face a multitude of issues at university
雅思寫作提升建議之掌握句子基本類型
了解簡單句和復雜句式的區(qū)別很重要,你不需要知道術(shù)語,但是你需要有能力自己完成一個句子的寫作。了解句子類型可以幫助你避免許多基本的寫作錯誤,比如:句不成句,句子成分殘缺,粘連句,逗號誤接句
雅思寫作常見錯誤1. 句不成句
這是雅思考生經(jīng)常犯的錯誤。殘缺句子成分的句子片斷是不可以單獨成句的,因為他并不具備成為一個完整的獨立分句的要素。記住,一個簡單句就是一個合格的獨立分句,它由3部分組成
主語,謂語,和一個完整的思路
有時看起來像一個句子,但是當我們仔細研究時會發(fā)現(xiàn)它缺少了許多很關(guān)鍵的成分,因此它并不能成為一個獨立的句子。
Examples:
The doctor worked round the clock. Operating on the boy.
As India has entered the WTO. The local entrepreneurs are faced with both challenges and opportunities.
我們怎么改正這些句子呢?
Corrections:
The doctor worked around the clock, operating on the boy.
As India has entered the WTO, the local entrepreneurs are faced with both challenges and opportunities.
雅思寫作常見錯誤2. RUN-ON SENTENCES:粘連句
粘連句包含著兩個或更多的主句,他們連在一起,沒有標點分隔(逗號、分號、句號等)。我們在說話的時候經(jīng)常使用這樣的粘連句,但是我們可以用停頓來表述清楚含義。在寫文章的時候,我們需要用標點符號來分隔我們的句子,讓它有更明確的表達含義。
雅思寫作常見錯誤3 逗號誤接句
就是兩個獨立主句之間逗號連接,這是很多考生會犯的錯誤。記住,逗號不能鏈接兩個獨立的句子,你需要添加連接詞來使它變完整,或者使用分號或者連接副詞。
更重要的一點,想在雅思寫作中拿高分,你不需要對所有標點符號的使用都了如指掌,了解逗號和句號的使用方法就足夠了。
