篇2:雅思写作低分的六大原因以及怎样改进方法
全文共 493 字
+ 加入清单在雅思考试中,写作部分要求考生在60分钟内完成两篇作文。第一篇是小作文,要求考生描述图表反映的内容和问题,字数为150个词以上:第二篇是大作文,要求考生根据题目要求写一篇议论文,字数为250个词以上。写作单项的满分为9分,采取半分制:写作部分的总分是小作文分数的1/3加上大作文分数的2/3。由于分值权重方面的原因,很多考生都高度重视大作文,却忽视了小作文的重要性。这主要表现为两种情况:一是考生平时很少练习小作文,导致其在20分钟内无法完成小作文,从而挤占了大作文的写作时间:二是由于比较看重大作文,一部分考生在考试的时候会选择先写大作文,并因过于谨慎仔细而占用了很多时间,最终导致没有时间完成小作文。这两种情况都会导致考生的写作成绩被拖后腿。
根据写作部分的计分权重来算,对于写作分数目标是5.5分的考生,一般来说有以下两种方案可选:
方案A:小作文5分,大作文6分,写作成绩=5.5分:方案B:小作文6分,大作文5分,写作成绩=5.5分。这两个方案殊途同归,但是因为大作文比小作文难拿到高分,因而方案B比较容易实现。这就意味着,写作分数目标是5.5分的考生应重点提高小作文的写作水平。
篇3:雅思写作的方法分享
全文共 1779 字
+ 加入清单印象里的英语学习要皓首穷经,绝非易事,可眼下,学英语越来越像时尚,新时代的社交名媛,如果嘴里不拽几句E文,似乎跟不上潮流。E文的好处显而易见:学,可以读点专业著作,比如源自西方的金融学,工作累了还可以去国外充个电,别人一问,我美国英国回来的,别管能力咋样,过江龙,倍儿有面子;玩,多门语言,去英语国家就多了份洒脱,多了份自信;赚钱,进个外企,多点国际移动力,炒个美股,信息传递损失为零哈。
没做出啥惊天地泣鬼神的事情之前,英语偷着好还不行,还得人家认可,于是雅思这个考试就横空出世了,IELTS(International English Language Testing System,国际英语测试系统),听说读写都包括,其中写作部分1小时,写400个词,掐指算来,我作为新东方老师跟这400个字儿较劲也两年多了。其实当水平远远凌驾于考试之上时,考试就像个周末的礼拜,如果英语灵光,雅思写作也不用刻意准备。先说说咋提高E文写作水平:
首先,腹有诗书气自华,读的多了,自然写作能力就强。读啥呢,Reading should have a purpose. 把读的内容和自己的目的衔接起来当然最好,选个自己喜欢的语言风格,文学性的或学术性的皆可,我挺喜欢美剧《学徒》里Donald Trump的风格,一看就是贵族教育,写的,字字珠玑。
其次,学以致用啊,最简单的方法就是free writing了,每天抽点时间,写个几百字,不在乎文法,不在乎用词,能说清楚就成。原来在外企那阵儿,每天都写点酸不溜丢的小情书,还专门买了本《外国名人情书》,每天看的不亦乐乎。
再次,该注意点精度了,要不满嘴错误咋进上流社会啊。买本《英语语法新思维》,从走近语法,看到通悟语法,每天再做点课后练习。Writing makes an exact man. 弗朗西斯·培根说的没错,写作让人精确,听说读写,只有写作绕不过语法。
接下来,趁热打铁,让考试做监工,从雅思的Report和Essay,到GRE的Argument和Issue,强化练个百十来篇,形成自己的写作风格。
最后,曲不离口,拳不离手,隔三差五读点大家之作,写点小文章,或者做点小翻译,保持一下水平;或者干脆出国学习工作一段时间,一劳永逸的解决E文问题。看看人家谢国忠的E文,人家也在国内读的本科,人和人差距咋这么大呢。‘Whither Anglo-Saxon Model? - Home prices in the United Kingdom fell by 2.5% in March, the biggest drop since 1992. Compared with a year earlier, the prices rose by 1.1%, the slowest in 12 years. The UKs house prices have increased by 171% in the past ten years, twice as much as personal disposable income. The tightening credit market, as reflected in the high labor rate, suggests the March number not an accident. When liquidity dries up, a bubble will surely burst. The end of the UKs property bubble seems here.…’再比如最近帮朋友看了篇学术论文,还是挺锻炼人的。学术翻译中第一要注是准确性,不要求句式和词语的多样性,同一术语前后用词最好保持一致。而且汉语中的长句子,必须先行分拆,然后用并列动词,并列状语,或者并列短句子来翻译。
其实道理说起来都挺简单,跟成功学似的,关键是能做到的人太少。英语不是一切,今天的多元社会,人总有权选择不学。我的观点是,英语要么不学,要么就学好,学个半斤八两最没劲;而且现在E文好的人越来越多,不仅要会General English,还要会用专业Professional English来讨论问题。吴思说的好,当社会潜规则越来越少时,个人综合素质还是挺重要的。
篇4:雅思写作技巧的间接表达方法
全文共 846 字
+ 加入清单下面小编为大家整理了一篇雅思写作技巧的相关信息,是关于间接表达法的。间接表达法这种在雅思写作技巧是用在这样的情况下的:有的时候,发言者为了充分地表达自己的观点,或者为了使自己的观点显得不偏激,会很委婉地表述观点。下面我们一起来看看。
间接表述观点
比如:
Well, I dont think you should start with the case study too early unless you have made full preparation or you might find you cant meet the deadline. However, it really is the best approach you can try to get peoples response though it is somewhat time-consuming. If you think you can spare your study time, just go for it.
第一句话出现dont think,转折词However引出了意思上大的转变,这里的it really is the best approach就是很大的一个转折,说明持支持的态度的。此外,最后一句话是总结性的观点,一句just go for it非常清楚地再次表示其支持观点。
间接观点表达:
Through observation study, you can just watch and take notes. And you can get some unforeseeable results from peoples behavior, but it can only cover certain aspects. Therefore, you need other research method to assist it. But you can try if you want.中立
篇5:雅思写作满分准备方法3:提炼自己的模板
全文共 491 字
+ 加入清单假设你的文章字数是400字,那么你大概要写40~50个句子。把这40~50个句子,排成编号,从第1个到第40个,也就是从文章的第一句话到最后一句话,你都知道要写什么,并且知道怎么写,甚至每个句子你都掌握了2~3个漂亮的句式,这样你还担心自己拿不到高分吗?再假设,这40~50个句子,你有50%都已经是固定句式了,也就是成了自己的写作套路,那么你还愁文章写不完么?比如说,我总是喜欢在文章最后一句 话 说 :In a word, it is rather superficial to simply say that……+观点,给个真题例子:In a word, it is rather superficial to simply say that parents are the best teachers。用一句话说,简单地认为父母是最好的老师是相当肤浅的。大家想一想,任何事情simply say都可以说是相当肤浅的。因此这句话就是一句比较万能的结束语。这句话怎么来的呢?这是官方题库里的第2篇,是我和大家在课上积累来的。只要大家一起努力,我们一定会成功提炼出自己的高分模版。
篇6:雅思写作复习2.背诵
全文共 237 字
+ 加入清单背诵是提高写作的又一有效途径。要学好写作,首先要处理好语言输入与输出之间的关系。前者是后者的前提条件。如果头脑空空如也,就根本谈不上写出像模像样的文章。只有读过大量东西,并且有意识地将其中精彩部分储存于记忆之中,才能保证下笔流畅、文通字顺。因此,背诵对于写作极为重要。但背诵不是机械记忆,而是有选择地背诵,是有意义地记忆,因为机械背诵的结果要么是记忆很快就荡然无存、了无痕迹,要么是无法活学活用、付诸实践。背诵包括五个方面:重点词汇、常用套语、精彩句子、优秀段落、经典篇章。
篇7:2024雅思小作文模板万能
全文共 1047 字
+ 加入清单雅思写作考试部分里,往往我们可以采纳"老三段"式的写法,以不变应万变,不论是线图,柱图,表格,饼图,亦或是流程图,我们都可以采用此种方式完成第一部分的作文.那么老三段式的经典写法中,强调着第一段"开门见山"介绍出本文讨论内容,即改写题目.将必要内容进行改写,这样可以获得高分效应.第二段"丰实的内容"尽量多地将图表中的信息表达明确,不时的需要我们之前总结的常用表达(敬请参见前几篇文章关于雅思作文经典表达介绍文章).第三段也就是文章的最后一段,对全文进行一个总结概括即可.
The chart depicts (that)…该图呈现出… The chart shows (that)…
The figures/statistics show (that)… The diagram reveals … The chart illustrates (that)… 六分表达:
The graph provides some interesting data regarding…该图为我们提供了有关…有趣数据.
The graph describes the trend of …这个图描述了…的趋势
As is shown/demonstrated/exhibited in the chart/diagram/chart/table…如图所示… According to the chart …根据这些表格… As is shown in the table…如图所示…
This table shows the changing proportion of A and B from … to …该表格描述了…年到…年之间A与B的比例关系.
This graph,presented in the chart,shows the general trend in…该图呈现了…总的趋势.
As can be seen from the graph, the two graphs show the flutuation of…如图所示,两条曲线描述了…的波动情况. 高分表达:
From the table/chart/diagram/figure,we can see clearly that…从图表中我们可以很清楚的看到…
The chart shows the changes in the number of …over the period from…to…该表格描述了在…年到…年之间…数量的变化
篇8:关于重阳节的雅思作文素材
全文共 1654 字
+ 加入清单the ninth day of the ninth lunar month
The Chong Yang Festival is celebrated on the ninth day of the ninth lunar month, and it is as such known as the Double Ninth Festival.
Origins: The festival began as early as the Warring States Period . According to the yin/yang dichotomy that forms a basis to the Chinese world view, yin represents the elements of darkness and yang represents life and brightness. The number nine is regarded as yang. The ninth day of the ninth month is a double yang day, hence the name Chong Yang Festival. The ninth month also heralds the approach of winter. It is a time when the living need warm clothing, and filial Chinese sons and daughters extended this to make the festival a time for providing winter clothes for their ancestors. The Double Ninth Festival, therefore, also became an occasion to visit the graves of dead family members. Clothes made of paper would then be burnt as offerings.
Climbing mountains: On the Double Ninth Festival, people customarily climb mountains, appreciate chrysanthemum flowers, drink chrysanthemum wine, and eat double-ninth cakes. The Double Ninth Festival is also the Old Men Festival. Old people are especially meant to improve their health by taking part in the activities on the day of the festival.
Family get-togethers: The Double Ninth Festival is also a time for family get-togethers. It is an occasion to remember ones ancestors, the sacrifices they made and the hardships they underwent. Often, family outings are organised during which people search to renew their appreciation of nature and to reaffirm their love and concern for family members and close friends.

篇12:个雅思写作基础语法扣分点介绍
全文共 740 字
+ 加入清单雅思考试中写作作为文字输出最多的一个部分,不仅考察了同学们的英语写作能力,而且很多细节语法只是的掌握程度也很能在雅思写作中体现出来,而从以往的雅思写作考试来看,扣分的点往往不是那些有难度的语法,而是一些最基础的语法知识。
一、such as与for example的混用
我们知道,在表示举例子的时候,such as与like是完全等同的,如:Wild flowers such as/like orchids and primroses are becoming rare。
但是同学们对于Such as、for example 的把握还是不够准确。我们都知道,后者接句子前者接词语表示举例子。于是就有了下面的写法:
There is a similar word in many languages, such as in French and Italian。
这里的such as改为for example为好,因为in French and Italian其实是there is a similar word in French and Italian的简化,所以要用for example来引出例证。再来看几个类似的例子:
It is possible to combine computer science with other subjects, for example physics。
二、assume 及claim 使用不够准确
我们知道, think,assume,claim是议论文中常用引出观点的动词。在实际作文中,同学们往往认为几个词的意思是一样的,完全可以代换,所以拿过来就用。甚至还有同学把consider也拿过来与之混用。我们首先还是从定义来看这几个词的不同:
篇13:雅思写作高分技巧:开头段如何写最吸引人
全文共 1771 字
+ 加入清单大作文开头段往往要包含如下几个关键内容,即,介绍背景,引出有争议的话题,阐述对立观点和陈述作者自己的观点。无论使用还是不使用模板,这几个关键信息是一定要包含在开头段落当中的,不然云里雾里,只能是适得其反。
首先It is quite common these days.。。介绍背景,或者用The issue of ... is a complex and sensitive one。这样的句型来引出有争议话题,然后千篇一律地分别介绍对立双方观点,如Some individuals believe that..., while others hold the view that....最终用Personally, I agree with....至此,内容上完美无瑕,但恐怕考官心中已经大大打下“模板”两个字的烙印,这无疑对于想取得6分及以上的同学最不利的事情。下面,我们就来说说到底应该如何突破“模板病”。
例如,一道雅思写作高频题目,讨论到底大学应该教授实用性课程(如计算机和商科课程)还是传统课程(如历史和地理)。我们依然按照开头段应该包含的关键信息开始写作,但是却可以这样轻松突破:
These day there is a growing tendency for college students to have difficulties in finding jobs when they graduate.(介绍背景)A large number of people hold the opinion that lack of practical knowledge, among other things, contributes to this situation. In light of this, they contend that college teachers should lay more stress on practical courses than on traditional ones. (引出有争议的话题,并阐述大多数人的观点)For my part, I am in favour of their viewpoint。(作者观点)
这一段写得非常灵巧,第一句结合题目背景,介绍现如今有一种趋势,即大学毕业生很难找到工作,紧接着作者陈述有许多人认为这是由于学生缺少实用性的知识,并因此提出大学应该更多关注于教授实用性的知识,这一句将有争议话题的其中一方观点用因果链条清晰阐述。最后一句表达作者自己的立场,就是支持前面大多数人的想法。总的来看,这一段只提及了对立双方的其中一方观点,然后表达自己支持这一方观点。这就是一种对于开头段模板的超越,简单可行,只对其中一方观点清晰论证,然后表达自己的立场,无需对另一方观点赘述。这固然超越了八股文一样的“一些人认为……另一些人认为……,我认为……”,而是以四两拨千斤的方式,重点讲解一方观点,然后巧妙表达支持的态度。
另一道可以参考的题目是有关人们认为对于罪犯不应该只是关在监狱里,而应该对他们进行教育和劳动改造这样一道题目。我们依然给出这样一段:
How to handle criminals is a problem that all countries and societies face。(引出有争议的话题)Traditionally, the approach has been to punish them by placing them in prisons to pay for what they have done. Some, however, advocate for trying to make them better with training and education and it seems they may have a good point.
这一段在观点描述上是“出于模板而胜于模板”的典范,范文中将观点一演变为“传统上,人们都采取关监狱这种方法”,这就用陈述事实的方式,巧妙避讳了直接表达有些人认为应该把犯人关在监狱里;而观点二以及作者观点合并为一句,用一个and巧妙连接成一个并列句。开头段关键信息一网打尽。
篇14:雅思作文考试中的大忌有哪些
全文共 584 字
+ 加入清单一、词汇贫乏,用词单一,表达呆板
考试要求考生的词汇量在8000个以上,而这其中有三分之一指的是阅读中的一些高难词汇或专业词汇,对于本站们写作而言,能够灵活高效地运用 5000词汇就已足够。很多考生中文功底扎实,思路敏捷,拿到雅思题目时也是有感而发,文思如泉涌,无奈囊中羞涩,词汇量有限,再多的想法和思路就如同茶壶里的饺子,有货却倒不出来,可谓是只可意会,不可言传。一篇250字的雅思作文让广大考生绞尽脑汁,搜肠刮肚,结果写出来的句子并没有准确高效地表达自己的意思。词汇量的贫乏就直接导致了考生在写作中用词单一,表达呆板,全文就是一些简单词汇的不断重复和累加,写作能力也可见一斑。有些考生一想起 产生,引起,就习惯性用produce,却不了解 promote, generate, trigger, lead to, result in等词汇和短语的表达都有此意思,完全可以在写作当中进行词汇的替换。而简单词汇的重复不仅让文章在词汇上水平不高,通篇归于平庸,而且让一些能够成为行文闪光点的精辟思维和见解也黯然失色。
二、用词不当,词不达意,中式充斥全文
有些考生单词量不小,在行文中也能够做到词汇的同义转换,然而写出来的文章还是让考官和匪夷所思,大跌眼镜,究其原因,主要是用词不够准确,chinglish大行其道,整篇文章就是考生想当然的一个汉译英过程,其结果也就可想而知。
篇15:雅思大作文范文:商业和文化
全文共 1978 字
+ 加入清单One of the most conspicuous trends in the 21st century is a closer connection between countries, in both economic and cultural aspects. There is a widespread worry that this will lead to the gradual demise of countries’ identities. This issue should be viewed and analyzed from multiple perspectives.
When a country tends to develop a closer relationship with the rest of the world, it does not necessarily give up its culture. Culture is not a disgrace to but an asset of a country. An indigenous culture can distinguish one country from others, attracting foreign visitors and yielding high income. As most tourists travel abroad for learning different cultures and sampling different ways of life, such as Beijing opera in China, Japanese tea culture and Thai temples, many countries have responded with protecting and preserving their cultural identities,
in an effort to keep themselves in the list of the most popular destinations. Increased tourism instills fresh life force into these
countries, aiding the conservation of their features.
While tourism provides a driving force for cultural conversation, some components of a culture, such as traditions^ customs or taboos might die out over time. It seems that in some countries, the locals have become more accustomed to exotic cultures. It reflects the combined effects of the invasion of foreign cultures, either through media or through direct business interaction. For example, two decades ago, sex was a taboo subject in China and most Chinese people felt embarrassed to talk openly about it. Over time the Western culture has permeated into the Chinese lifestyle, and the Chinese people have broken many of their time-honoured traditions. It occurs in the rest of the world as well.As outlined above, increased interaction between countries in the domains of business and culture can either strengthen or undermine the identities of countries involved, To date there is no definite answer to this question.
篇16:雅思写作满分作文准备方法四则
全文共 1177 字
+ 加入清单如果说独立写作是闭卷考试,那么你花上3~5分钟的时间去审题,去构思,是很必要的。但是,实际情况是,独立写作是开卷考试,首先题库公开,它的题型和题材都不会超出题库的范围,你总会在题库中找到类似的题目,加之机经的强大力量,使得雅思独立写作真的成了开卷考试。既然是开卷考试,大家就应该把审题的工作放到考试之前做,争取在1分钟之内完成,不要浪费时间,把时间用来打字,而不是思考上面。那些思维风暴、切题思路之类的,应该是事先已经准备过,训练过的。如果考到了你从来没接触过的题,只能说明你没有准备到位,如果你的审题时间超过了2 分钟,那么你的准备也没有到位,这就是开卷考试的备考思维,满分不是临场发挥出来的,而是准备出来的。
雅思写作满分准备方法2:栽赃法
如果不能保证文章的质量,可以从数量入手,记住我在课上讲过的托福写作黄金法则the longer, the better!的学员中曾经有位写作30分的获得者,独立写作30分钟写了600字,拿了满分。当然他肯定有一些不足和错误,可是仍然不影响满分。可见如果不能把文章写得很漂亮,不能写出亮点,那就多写点吧,字数多也是亮点。只要大家按照我上课讲授过的方法来扩充论据,写出长篇大论是很容易的事。
雅思写作满分准备方法3:提炼自己的模板
假设你的文章字数是 400字,那么你大概要写40~50个句子。把这40~50个句子,排成编号,从第1个到第40个,也就是从文章的第一句话到最后一句话,你都知道要写什么,并且知道怎么写,甚至每个句子你都掌握了2~3个漂亮的句式,这样你还担心自己拿不到高分吗?再假设,这40~50个句子,你有50%都已经是固定句式了,也就是成了自己的写作套路,那么你还愁文章写不完么?比如说,我总是喜欢在文章最后一句 话 说 :In a word, it is rather superficial to simply say that……+观点,给个真题例子:In a word, it is rather superficial to simply say that parents are the best teachers.用一句话说,简单地认为父母是最好的老师是相当肤浅的。大家想一想,任何事情simply say都可以说是相当肤浅的。因此这句话就是一句比较万能的结束语。这句话怎么来的呢?这是官方题库里的第2篇,是我和大家在课上积累来的。只要大家一起努力,我们一定会成功提炼出自己的高分模版。
雅思写作满分准备方法4:压缩题库
题库中一共有185个题目,如果说每个题目都准备一篇范文是相当不可取的,效率太低,完全没有必要,压缩题库的方法主要有2种:A.将题库分类。每个分类写1~2篇就可以解决这个类的题目。 B.文章之间的互相转化。

篇17:老外写环保雅思作文
全文共 2495 字
+ 加入清单Topic: Environmental problems are as big as not for individual country or individual people to address. In other word, we have reached the stage that environmental problems be solved for international view. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
In recent years, many nations have become more aware of the environmental issues each nation faces, such as air and water pollution. The question is, are the environmental issues a national problem or an international problem?
It is my belief that the environmental issues have grown to the point of becoming an international problem needing international cooperation to resolve. Because of the differences in environmental policies, resources and technology, international cooperation could provide quicker results and have a greater impact on bringing resolution to environmental problems for nations of differing environmental policies and of lesser resources and technology. By pooling international resources and technology to address the environmental problems, the disadvantaged nations are provided the assistance needed. Otherwise their environmental conditions deteriorate ultimately affecting the resources and environment of the world as a whole. One of the difficulities to an international resolution to environmental issues is the difference in individual nations view and policies toward environmental protection.
In order for international cooperation to occur and succeed, the nations of the world must submit themselved to international standards and supervision by an international commission elected by the participating nations of the world. All members must agree to abide by the standards established. The environmental issues facing each country are not unrelated to the well being of the rest of the world. The impact is long term and international in scope. Without international cooperation and agreement to address such environmental issues as glacial melting at the South Pole, depletion of the ozone layer, water pollution, air polution, etc., the environmental conditions of the world will deteriorate to the detriment of every nation, not just those that ignore or lack the resources and technology to resolve their individual environmental problems.
As part of the same planet, it is the responsibility of each individual and nation to protect the global environment. Only international cooperation will provide the timely solutions and the effectiveness needed to stop the deteriorating global environment.
篇18:雅思写作错误备考方法解析
全文共 822 字
+ 加入清单雅思写作考试是对考生的综合语言能力的考查,但有的考生在备考过程中,往往只是注重应试培养。那我们应该如何合理高效的备考雅思写作呢?
正如之前上面所说,许多考生备考过程中,往往会忽视了对语言知识和实际运用能力的锻炼,那么常见不可取的备考方法有哪些?考生们可以来看看自己有没有中枪
1. 话题准备,厚此薄彼:
教育类和科技类话题通常是雅思写作题库的主角,尤其是教育类话题,考试频率相对来说比较高,如剑9写作的4个话题中,就有两个是教育类。可是这就造成了一些考生在备考雅思写作时比较偏心,只是准备教育类和科技类话题,疯狂的背相关词汇,表达及素材观点,对其他话题却置之不理,这让其他话题情何以堪啊。其实,纵观近几年的雅思写作考试,社会类,环境类和媒体类等话题始终都是一线演员,拥有着和教育类及科技类话题一样比较高的出镜率,而其他话题也不断上位。因此,考生应了解近年雅思写作考试题库和出题规律,针对不同题型和话题,掌握写作方法和技巧,积累相关的词汇表达,句型结构和素材观点,确保万无一失。
另外,在准备雅思图表作文时,同学们不应该只练习曲线图,饼图,柱状图和表格的写作,还要重视流程图和地图题,熟悉表示时间次序和地理方位的相关短语及表达。尤其是地图题出现的频率在近两年的雅思考试中呈现了明显的上升态势,而其中以考察历史变迁的类型为主。所谓历史变迁,即某个地方在经历一段时间后发生了一些调整或改变,可能是地图上的建筑物从无到有,也可能是建筑的位置改变或是规模的扩大或缩小等等。需要同学们从给定的地图中挖掘相应的信息,按照时间和空间顺序,用恰当的语言有逻辑的呈现给读者。《剑九》Test 1就为我们呈现了一道变迁题。这种图表其实难度不大,但是有的童鞋在平时备考的过程中接触且准备的很少,所以在考场上根本无法动笔。事实上,如果我们在备考时,熟记表示方位的词汇和表达,仔细分析并经常练习此类题目,我们就能更好地把握这类题目的写作技巧与方法,在考场上遇到此类题目时不再迷茫。
篇19:雅思写作的方法技巧
全文共 3207 字
+ 加入清单一、compare与contrast的误用
我们先从两者的定义入手来看两者的区别。Compare的定义为:to examine people or things to see how they are similar or different. Contrast的定义为:to compare two or more things to show the difference between them. 由定义不难看出前者侧重于找到两个或多个事物的异同,而后者则侧重于它们的不同。
看个例句:
It is interesting to compare their situations to ours./It is interesting to contrast their situations to ours。
前一句翻译为:对比一下我们的情况与他们的情况会很有趣。
后一句的翻译为:我们的情况与他们的情况有很大的不同,这很有趣。
再看一个引自OXFORD ADBANCED LEARNERS DICTIONARY的例子:
There is an obvious contrast between the culture of East and West。
The company lost $7 million in contrast to a profit of $6.2 million a year earlier。
When you look at their new system, ours seems very old-fashioned by contrast。
不难发现,Compare 翻译为 与。。。相比而contrast可译为明显不同的是。。。,切记这种翻译方式就不会用错彼此了。
二、介词使用错误
1、普通介词的误用
一般表现为固定搭配错误,如常把provide sb with sth用成provide sb sth; be satisfied with用成be satisfied for等等,虽然这样的错误看似无伤大雅,但在考官眼里就是影响顺畅阅读的,当然会影响最终成绩。解决的办法简单而古老:把常见的固定搭配牢记于心,问题自然就解决了。
2、to作为介词的误用
to最常见的用法是以动词不定式符号的形式出现的,所以同学们也已经习惯了 to do的固定搭配。对于一些如walk to me, to the left等介词to表方向等常见用法一般也不会出现错误。但是对于与动词搭配的介词to就会经常犯错:
如:
More and more students have taken to depend on their parents to make decision for them。
这里的 take to means to begin to do sth as a habit 其中 to为介词,所以后面只能接名词或相当于名词的词,如动名词。所以黑体处应改为depending on。take to的另一个常用用法也需要牢记:
He hasnt taken to his new school. (这里take to means to start liking sb or sth)
Prefer A to B中的 to也是介词,会有 prefer doing sth to doing sth/ prefer sth to sth else, 这里朗阁海外考试研究中心提醒您,prefer to do sth rather than do sth中的to可是真正的不定式符号。
类似的常用用法请同学们牢记:
Be used to doing
Be accustomed to doing
See to doing
Adapt to doing
Adjust to doing
prefer doing sth. to doing sth。
等等,请注意平时仔细积累。
三、assume及claim使用不够准确
我们知道, think, assume, claim是议论文中常用引出观点的动词。在实际作文中,同学们往往认为几个词的意思是一样的,完全可以代换,所以拿过来就用。甚至还有同学把consider也拿过来与之混用。我们首先还是从定义来看这几个词的不同:
Think: to have opinion or belief about sth。
翻译为认为,通常接宾语从句来表达比较确定的观点。
Assume: to think or accept that sth is true but without having proof of it。
翻译为假设、假定,是否有事实依据是不确定的。
Claim: to say sth is true although it has not been proved and other people may not believe it。
翻译为声称,用这个词往往意味着不赞同紧跟其后的观点,所以很少用作 I claim that
Scientist are claiming a breakthrough in the fight against cancer, but in fact, 。
所以 It is claimed that 通常翻译为有报道称。。。。和it is reported that 的区别在于后者翻译为据报道,往往代表着作者赞同报告的内容,
Consider: to think about sth carefully, especially in order to make a decision
翻译为考虑,一般不用作引出观点,看个例子:
We are considering buying a new car。
所以,提醒您,千万不要在雅思大作文的第一段(观点表达段)就因为用词把握不准而导致对整篇文章的低分印象。
四、表建议的词汇后面忘记用虚拟从句
这是摘自学生作文中的一个病句:
I suggest he continues his study instead of working after graduation from high school。
因为 suggest翻译为建议,所以后面的从句应该用虚拟语气,黑体部分应该改为 (should) continue
提醒您,一定要牢记以下常见表建议的词汇,而且要记住这些词接从句时要用虚拟语气:
Recommend, suggest, advise
五、such as与for example的混用
我们知道,在表示举例子的时候,such as 与like是完全等同的,如:Wild flowers such as/like orchids and primroses are becoming rare。
但是同学们对于Such as、for example 的把握还是不够准确。我们都知道,后者接句子前者接词语表示举例子。于是就有了下面的写法:
There is a similar word in many languages, such as in French and Italian。
这里的such as改为 for example为好,因为in French and Italian其实是there is a similar word in French and Italian的简化,所以要用 for example来引出例证。再来看几个类似的例子:
It is possible to combine computer science with other subjects, for example physics。
最后,要提醒各位考生,在平时的写作中绝对不能放过任何的模棱两可,只有平时斤斤计较才能做到写作使人精确。
