Whether persons would spend their entire lives in one place or not concerns (is a matter of)their life style. Due to differently personal character and experiences, some people like to stay in one place thorough (throughout)their lives, but others in contrast, prefer to move a number of times among different cities. In my view, I would be very happy if I have opportunities to live in different places. The arguments for this propensity are listed as follows.

One of the most crucial reasons for my view is that we could (can)have more opportunities to realize our dreams in the process of moving between places. As a young man(young men), we are all eager for success. However the road to (approach toward)success is so hard that we have to make great efforts. We must possess many aspects, including(去掉) outstanding intelligence, excellent education, rich experience and certainly good luck, most of which are acquired only by insistently pursuing, besides (and)studiously striving in different cities(if necessary). I can take one of my friends for instance. In order (to)receive the best education, after graduating from the senior school, he left his hometown to a remote city, BEIJING. But four years later, to looking for a better job, he left BEIJING and come to SHENZHEN, a beautiful city in his dream. Now his new goal is to enter American B-School to acquire (of)more advanced knowledge in financing. We can see, in just about ten years, he has moves three times, and what is more(more importantly), this moving sill continue. Actually, in contemporary society more and more people are as this(act like him ).

Another essential fact why (reason why)I hold my view is that we can enjoy a more rich and colorful (richer and more colorful)life, as we change places we live in. For my part, enjoying life is as important as, if not more important than, devoting work(hard working). It is a pleasing thing in the holiday to visit beautiful sceneries in different places. My friends mentioned in the last paragraph(before), has visited the snow scene in the north, and the widely (wide)sea in the south.

Admittedly, we cannot neglect the virtues (of)spending the entire life in one place. People can attained (attain)the feeling of family to their community, and the relationships between people are closer. Nevertheless moving between cities perhaps is more attractive to young persons than staying in one place thorough their lives.

From all the reasons mentioned above, it is not difficult to get the conclusion that if it is possible, I would move a number of times throughout my lives to look for the best job, house or climate I am eager for.

Unit Fourteen

The Lord and the Hermit

Once upon a time there was a rapacious lord. He was relentless to his tenants and quelled them by placing quotas to their living condition. Soon he collected quantitatively great revenue and lived in a radiate palace. He was also renowned for his queer clothes.

One day the lord’s disease relapsed, so he rallied his subordinates for help. One of them said: “I’ve heard of a recluse who knows regimen well residing nearby. Why not visit his residence for help?” Another retorted: “Be prudent, maybe it is only a rumor.” But the rash lord was filled with rapture and ratified the visiting plan.??

On the next Sunday, the lord purged himself, held a quaint rite and started for the hermit’s home. They passed rugged rustic passages full of paddles and the lord almost recoiled. Finally they arrived. The lord felt disappointed at the recluse’s reception, but he wouldn’t relinquish the chance and talked to the hermit with reverence.

The hermit ruminated and reverted to the main topic in a pungent voice: “I’ve heard lots of your ravenous deeds. You retract the land you’ve distributed to the farmers and order them to redeem their land. You must redress your guilt and rehabilitate their freedom. Reimburse their respective debts and build refuge for them. You can retain the residue of your property.”??

The lord was reluctant to renounce his wealth and be rent from his palace. He rebuked: “Your advice is too reckless. I’m resolute not to accept it.”

“Why so repulsive? You cannot repudiate my words.” The hermit reiterated his suggestion and its resonance echoed. “Remit their taxes with rebates, or a riot is imminent.”

The lord again refuted. At last he went back in remorse.

篇3:2024年托福英语作文写作方法:审题和布局

全文共 2963 字

+ 加入清单

一、审题的“精确性”

在上篇中,笔者已经介绍了部分考题中的“绝对性”的应对措施,而根据专家对于过去2年独立写作考题的分析,发现有90%以上的题目属于“支持/反对”型:

2011.01.30

Do you agree or disagree with the following statement?

Because the change of the society is so rapidly, people are less happy or less satisfied with their life than people did in the past time.

而剩下的则是由“对比论述型”构成的:

2011.03.13

Some people think children should spend most of their time in studying and playing while others think they should help their parents with the household chores. What’s your opinion?

在审题时,考生必须首先把题目通读1-3遍,彻底把握题目主旨后,方可进行段落布局。在这里,笔者结合自己的经验给考生们一些建议:首先,判断题目是否包含“绝对”含义的词,若有,则按照上篇讲过的建议布局,若没有,则对于同意或者反对的理由进行快速的brain storming, 然后根据分论点的数量及论点的可延展性来敲定立场:

Some people think that human needs for farmland, housing, and industry are more important than saving land for endangered animals. Do you agree or disagree with this point of view? Why or why not? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.

Disagree:

1) Endangered animals are valuable because of their limited quantities

2) Environment balance

3) Endangered animals sometimes stand for the country, so they are more valuable than farmlands

Agree:

1) life quality is the top priority

2) endangered animals can be raised in the zoos

经过一番考量,假如考生得出了上述的一些分论点及想法,这时候,主体段的布局基本就可以敲定大方向了。第一种就是完全反对题目的说法,采用五段式结构布局,每个主体段论证上述三个分论点中的一个;第二种也是反对题目的说法,采用五段式结构布局,但是前2个主体段从三个分论点中选二个去论证,而第三个主体段从“同意”的二个分论点里去选一个,最后的结论还是倾向于反对的。第三种是采用四段式结构布局,即第一个主体段从三个反对意见中选择二到三个分论点去写,而第二个主体段则从赞同的分论点里去选择,数量上比前一段少一个即可,最后结论还是倾向于反对多一点。这样说是不是有些同学看了会有点“晕”呢?那下面笔者就再举个简单点的例子吧:

Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Television, newspapers, magazines, and other media pay too much attention to the personal lives of famous people such as public figures and celebrities. Use specific reasons and details to explain your opinion.

Disagree:

1) Most people are common, so they want to know something about famous ones

2) Famous people stand for some fashion

3) Constrain the public figures

4) Celebrities can improve the national cohesion and unity

又经过了几分钟思考,我们得出了上述的四个分论点,但是一时半会赞同的理由实在是想不出。若考试的时候遇到这种情况,千万别犹豫不决,马上从已经想好的观点里面进行挑选。于是,这个题目我们就采用完全反对的立场,以五段式结构布局全文,主体段的分论点从上述四点中挑选三个展开论述即可。这样一来,大家是不是明白一点了呢?

Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Parents or other adult relatives should make important decisions for their older (15 to 18 year-old) teenage children. Use specific reasons and examples to support your opinion.

Agree: Parents make decision for children.

1) Parents have more experience

2) 15-18 years old children are not adults, so they cant take responsibility

还有一种情况就是我们只能想出两个分论点,这时候考生应该果断采用四段式布局,而这一次,两个主体段都分别论述一个同意的理由,而在结尾时,可以顺便提一些反对的理由,这样也不失为一种灵活的方法,希望考生们可以借鉴。

二、分论点的排列原则

专家提醒考生们,在布局的时候我们不是随意编排分论点的先后顺序,而是需要有一定的逻辑性和合理性。一般说来,五段式的三个主体段,若都是同意或者都是反对的理由的话,一般这些分论点有两种逻辑顺序,即第一种按照“重要性”来排,将你认为最主要的理由放在第一个主体段中详细论证;第二种是按照“小到大”的原则,即个人方面的理由先写,然后再是家庭,公司,最后再是社会,国家等。倘若所有的论点都是在一个范围内的,比如都是属于个人的论点,则这个时候要看这些分论点后续的论证内容的多少,比如某一个分论点你既举得出例子,又可以进行对比或者因果论述的话那肯定应该先写这个分论点,若某一个分论点后续能够阐述的理由只有一句话的时候那就应该果断地将其排在后面写。若文章是四段式的结构,则在一个主体段中的排列顺序和前面讲的原则是一致的。

Unit Three

Prisoners of War?

Thousands of war prisoners were kept in captivity in the bulky camp. They lived in clutter and had to deal with chore. They must show categorical obedience or else receive caustic chiding. The guarding officers censure them very often, as well as clamoring carnal punishments. Some captives got bruise and clots all over. Male prisoners lost their collaterals and female ones fail to keep chaste.??

They wear burnished canvas, and rested in circumscribed room with small capacity and caliber. They chafe each other and brawled frequently. They were chary of moving and can hardly budge. Their situations captivated lots of reporters, who castigated the government with cogent proof. However, the government gave bombastic data and bragged about the conditions in the camps.??

After the calamity of war ceased, large numbers of captives were longing for the boon of brisk free life. According to a clandestine bond between the two canny governments, a process of exchanging captives will soon commence. This is considered as opening a cleft in the clogged wall between the two countries.

篇5:托福写作中添加例子的好方法

全文共 2599 字

+ 加入清单

如何让托福作文的"例子"更生动:要想使托福作文逻辑更缜密,更加具有说服力,我们需要在托福作文中添加一些例子以支持自己的论点,然而,有些同学却不能很好的把例子融入托福作文中去,不是干巴巴的讲两句,就是把那些用滥了的例子再炒一遍。这样的托福作文,是不可能取得高分的。那, ,如何选择高分例子?如何在托福写作中更好的添加例子?

在备考托福写作的过程中,不少拿不到写作高分的中国学生遇到的问题不是看不懂题目,也不是想不到理由,甚至也不是写不到300字(有学生写了470字,却只得了fair),而是不会论证。不会论证这四个字几乎就是托福写作的死穴。ETS的考官们在OG中反复强调fully developed的重要性,说的也就是这个理儿。论证的主要方法有直接论证、举例子、引用他人观点和数据等等。在这里,最适合中国学生操作,也是最容易得高分的就是举例子了。

然而,举例子这个方法向来不为中国学生所重视。因为对于大多数学生来说,举例子实在是太容易不过了,只要写上for example之类的提示词,再写上人尽皆知的诸如Einstein, Newton之类的例子就万事大吉了。而事实上,这样的例子考官早已经看过成百上千遍了,怎么可能再给高分呢?

因此,要想举出高分的例子,最好是写两种例子:

1)美国人所熟知的历史、文化的例子,但一定要有一些新意,不是讲烂了的Galileo, Mother Teresa之流

2)讲自己身边的故事。

若是考生能够选用第一种例子,用得恰当的话自然能让考官眼前为之一亮。例如在讨论媒体对人们的影响时,选用美国人所熟知的脱口秀女王Oprah Winfrey作为例子。或是在讨论学生是否都应该学习历史的时候,选用美国历史上知名的总统,如Thomas Jefferson, Herbert Hoover等进行论证都非常好。这样做既进行了有效论证,又不落入俗套。然而,举这类例子对于考生考前的积累要求比较高。如果距离考试还有三个月或以上的时间,我建议考生可以在考前多准备一些类似的人物或事件的例子,以备考试之用。在这里,推荐给大家几个参考的网站:维基百科/,纽约时报 /, 华尔街日报 / 和 American thinker / 这些都是很好的收集素材的网站。

对于大多数备考时间比较紧的考生来说,花大量的时间去准备第一种例子显得有些不太划算。因此,性价比比较高的第二种例子更适合于备考时间比较短的考生。托福考试仅仅是语言能力考试,只要能用恰当的例子论述清楚问题就可以,因此用自己或身边人的例子对于考官来说也有很大的说服力。

三大技巧学会编例子:

1) 加上姓名、时间、地点等

很多中国学生在写例子的时候会使用比如说有一个人……这样的表达。这样的表达看起来底气不足,且中式思维严重,很难受到考官青睐。考生完全可以改用另外的表达我有一个朋友叫Jason,他在两年前做了XX事……这样写就看起来舒服多了。在叙述个人类例子的时候,尽量使用具体的人名、地名和时间。这样能使你的例子看上去更丰满、富有细节,也更像真实的事件,有说服力。

2) 与论点结合,写出XX之前和XX之后的变化

需要特别注意的是,例子一定是为论证服务的,绝不能脱离主题举例子。有的考生非常心醉于自己编出来的故事,但是却忘了自己在写托福作文,这个故事并不能证明你的观点,那这样的文章得不到高分一点也不奇怪。

这里的XX指的是论点中的主题词。例如在写机经中的一个题目:公共交通是否应该免费时,有一个分论点是公共交通免费以后,私家车会减少,这样尾气排放得少了,环境也就变好了。这里的主题词就是私家车的数量,例子就可以写成N年前私家车很少,环境很好,然后私家车变多以后,环境就变差了。例子可写成:

10 years ago, in my childhood memory, the city which I live in now is one of the most beautiful cities I have ever seen. The blue sky and the clean water were quite impressive to me. However, 3 years ago, when I came back to this city again, I was astonished by those changes. The city developed rapidly during those days.There are far more private cars than years ago on the road every day. On average, every household has one or two cars. The city may be described as developed now,while the sky here is never as clear as ever.

这个例子当中所用的词汇、句型基本都是中学所学过的。但是其中用到了我们刚才所谈的第一个技巧,加上了时间细节,也用到了第二个技巧,扣紧了主题,说明了有私家车变多之前和之后的变化。这个例子看上去文采平实,但却符合托福考试的评分规范,单就这个例子而言,就是可以得到4~5分的高分的(满分5分)。

3) 写完例子以后,一定要再结合论点论证说理

这一点不难理解,却是很多考生所忽视的。再强调一遍,例子的存在是为了更好地论证论点,因此在写完例子以后,需要再加上至少1~2句话重申一下你的论点。例如上文中出现的例子,写完之后,还应再加上If the amount of the cars can be reduced, I believe it will further improve the environment here, and be beneficial to all the citizens here as well. And The free payment of pubic transportation will make this come true.这样就是一个完整的论述段了。

托福作文中如果能够运用上几个生动有趣的例子,文章就立刻丰满起来,如果没有明显的词汇和语法错误,这肯定就是一片高分托福作文。

When we see photographs of starving children, it’s hard to say that we should spend billions of dollars on space exploration. But that’s just what we should do. Children don’t need to be starving, but we do need to explore space. Right now, we have enough money to feed every person on Earth. Children are starving because of mismanagement of resources and simple human greed. Those are problems we can solve right here on earth. That shouldn’t stop our need to find out what’s beyond our own solar system.

We may never make contact with whatever other species there may be out there in space. Even so, there are still two very practical and positive consequences of space exploration. One is a certainty and the other is a possibility. The certainty is medical research. Yes, we can conduct research here on earth. But much of the research done in space, for example, on the effects of gravity on bone marrow, is making a difference in medicine here on Earth. When we do research in space, we also learn more about space exploration. Also, many of the inventions that were developed for space travel have been adapted to good use on Earth.

The possible consequence of space exploration is finding another planet human beings can colonize. Overpopulation is a huge problem on our planet. People are living longer, more healthful lives, and that’s a good thing. But it means there are fewer people dying and more people being born. Eventually we’ll have less space, fewer resources, and major distribution problems. If we can find another planet to live on, we can relieve the problems of overpopulation on our planet.

It’s a tragedy that there are human beings suffering on Earth. However, if we wait until everyone has a perfect life, we will never explore space—and that , too, would be a kind of tragedy.

Most of us can learn how to do something simple on our own with just a set of instructions. However, to learn about something more complex, its always best to have a teacher.

Teachers bring with them varied and useful backgrounds. Theyve been trained to teach individuals in different ways depending on their style. For instance, omen students learn better by discussing a topic. Others learn more by writing about it. Teachers can help students learn in the way thats best of each student. A textbook or a manual can only give you one way of learning something. Plus theyre only as helpful as your ability to understand them. A good teacher can adapt her teaching to your needs.  Teachers help you focus on what youre learning. If youre learning something by yourself, it’s easy to become distracted, and go on to other activities. Teachers keep your attention on the subject. They also approach a subject logically, taking it one step at a time. On your own, its tempting to skip parts of the learning process you think you don’t need. That can binder your ability to really understand the subject.

Learning a subject on your own is a very narrow way of learning. You can only use the information you get from the textbook. With a teacher, you get the information in the written materials as well as the teachers own knowledge of the topic. Teachers can also provide extra materials to broaden the scope of what youre learning.

Theres nothing wrong with studying on your own, and a learner can always benefit from some quiet study. For the best possible learning, though, a good teacher is the biggest help you can have.

篇8:托福写作中词汇替换的方法

全文共 965 字

+ 加入清单

托福词汇的运用在托福各题型中都起到很重要的作用,在托福写作中,我们也可以通过托福词汇的替换来达到考托福的写作高分。下面,我们就来看一下在托福写作中进行词汇替换的四种方式。

一、使用同义词进行替换

英语和我们中文一样,事实上,会有许多同义词,近义词,反义词等的同类比,所以词汇量积累越大的同学,其在这方面的知识就越多。因此,对于写作来说,寻找同义词替换是一个非常之棒的方法。使用同义词的好处就是首先可以向审核者展示你是一个词汇达人,你的词汇量足够丰富,其次可以让文章富有变化。因此,同义词在文章写作里的运用好坏一定会成为判断你写作好坏的一个标准。审核者认同你的同时,会给你一个好的分数。

二、使用各种形式的同根词进行替换

英语学的好的同学,自然是会明白英语词汇里有同根词。这种同根词要明白,他们其实是通过对单词的变换来吸引审核者的眼睛的。这种吸引他们并获得高分的方式,你不妨试一下。一些单词我们都十分明白,可以在他们懊悔面或者是在后面加上一些前缀或者是后缀并产生很多新的词汇。而且这些词汇会让我们避免在文章中过多地重复利用某一个熟悉的词,这样会让文章看上去变化多,而且层次也丰富。

三、使用短语进行替换

托福写作中,允许你使用各种各样的短语,只要你是一个短语达人,那么你就开始运用这些短语吧。这些短语用的好,不仅让你的文章看上去节奏感强,而且更能准确而精确地表达你想要表达的意思。在一些特殊的情况下,因为有好些不同的短语要吧表达同样的意思,那么就用这种方式来替换你本身想要进行的表达。

四、综合运用自我方法进行替换

经过了许多方法的练习后,你一定会形成一套属于自己的方法,自己最熟悉,最喜欢运用的方法。那么,好的,这就是我们练习所要达到的一个目的。现在,你懂了,下面就是开始运用综合性的方法来进行替换了。那么,你准备好了吗?我们在使用同义词替换的时候,也可以把原句进行结构上的变换。那么这样做就是让审核者最终发现你所写的句子和原来的截然不同,但是意思却是一样的,会让他们觉得你是一个改句子的达人哦。

总结

不管如何讲,在托福写作中,想要让自己的文章更吸引人,光变换单词是不够的,我们还要把单词和句子的结构进行有机的调整和变换,并把两者结合使用,从而让自己的文章更丰富多彩,在后面的文章中,小鱼儿就会托福的写作进行更加多的方法分享。请大家关注并积极参与。

篇9:托福作文写作时间分配技巧

全文共 869 字

+ 加入清单

熟悉考场写作三个步骤的时间分配

第一步:审题、确定立场、列出理由最少3分钟最多5分钟。

要避免两个极端:((只需要在草稿纸上用英文单词或汉语列出各个理由,防止遗忘))

用时太少,理由没有想清楚就开始写作,不仅造成文章逻辑结构不清,还会引起行文中频繁的修正,欲速则不达;

用时太多,不要追求一次思考就能把每一条理由及相关例证都想出来。其实想出两条之后就可以动笔,各个理由的例证可以写到该段时边思考边写。这一点你不必怀疑,只要你的思维还是正常的,一定能做到。

第二步:正文写作。最少22分钟最多26分钟。

a.各段写作时注意对段落的不同部分给予不同的重视。

主题句给予最大重视,注意炼句,别说你不想写主题句,主题句可以使读者和笔者本人更清晰该段落写什么。各段中支持性细节写作不必遵循相同的模式。有n 种选择可供参考:1. 举具体事例 2. 说对方相对缺点3. 使用数据 4. 使用假想例子 5. 使用类比、比喻、引用等修辞手段来论述。 哪一种你最容易想出来,就用哪一种。

b.考前将文章开头、结尾、例证、让步等各种句套背熟练,并且练习和模考时把他们用熟,要象做完型填空一样对待考场作文。别试图在考场上再现去决定比如哪种开头好,怎样结尾好。使用自己选种的套话。

c.当被告知还有5分钟结束时,一般你已经该写到最后一条理由,或者已经在做结尾。要确保文章有结尾段。(不排除将他和最后一条理由的末段结合在一起的可能性。)

第三步:检查。需要1-3分钟,有侧重点地检查。

1、句法:确保每句话是完整的,有谓语,且简单句只有一个谓语。

2、时态:文章绝大部分使用的是一般现在时;一般现在时第三人称要使用单数;使用过去发生的事例时用的是过去时;

3、主谓一致

按此三步,持续练习5篇以上,可以确保时间问题。

整洁

1、TWE要求必须用铅笔写作文,你要自己准备好铅笔和橡皮。橡皮要有韧性,太硬会擦破纸,有错误要擦干净再改;

2、第一遍写作时要求字迹不要太大也不要太小,通常一行写10-12个左右单词为宜。如果书法不好,可以在考前练习写一下斜体的26个字母的写法 .

托福独立写作素材

摘要:同学们在备考的时候,常有这样的问题,托福独立写作素材源何而来怎么才能写一篇高分的托福作文呢下面我们一起看看下面文章。

大部分考生在托福写作练习时举步维艰。一个主要疑问就是觉得自己写的文章不够有特点,不够有意思,不够深奥。由此引发出的一个现象就是学生不敢写自己立刻就想到的,最贴近生活的内容,而总是想着如何创新。这种两难境地大到开遍布局,小到措辞举例。无处不在。

内容源自生活

在托福写作取材时,你可以选择自己的生活经验,阅历体验,价值观念,喜好与厌恶等等。这些源自生活的感想和经历,说出来别人可以立刻明白,而且不会觉得枯燥无聊。

其内容本身并没有什么晦涩难懂的,有意思的地方是即便很平常,它也是你没接触过的生活与思维方式。这样的内容给了读者一次机会去以另外一个个体的视角来审视、理解、解释世界。如果我们能就此写出用意思又有特点的作文并不是一件难事。

和所有的艺术创作是一样。灵感的开始一定源自身边的事情,但如何叙述事件,如何表达其中思想,如何将其链接到文章其它部分,是需要特别花功夫研究和联系的。

若想最说服别人认同某个观点,必须最有效的传递一种体验,若想传递一种体验,则必须最生动的还原一个场景。

例如,某篇文章开头翻译后大致如下:“你有没有曾经在烈日下等过一个小时的公交车你有没有在交通堵塞的时候滞留在车上,被困在所有人的汗水与气味之中你有没有在雨水湿透全身的时候却找不到一辆计程车如果你有任何这样的经历,你就不会奇怪为什么我最想改变的是我家乡的公共交通设施。”

这篇文章的开头最大的特点有二。第一,其内容绝对源自生活,没有什么晦涩之处。但他要是不说到这些点,读者也未必能想到。这一提立刻把读者拽到“境”中。第二,在描写上,该文章还是下了一些文章的。它尽量避免一些抽象的词,比如令人不悦的、不舒服的、热的、难过的,而选择使用汗水、雨水,而且是“所有人”的。种种细节起到了一个绝好的效果。这就是英文中的“移情”作用,这个方法是写出好作文的一大有效手段。

篇11:托福写作词汇和句型选用的方法

全文共 2907 字

+ 加入清单

我们来看看句子吧。如果说单词是句子的灵魂,那句子就是文章的基石,而句型则是不同品质的基石,可以让整篇文章充满多样的色彩,读起来让人很有兴趣。虽然句型的变化很多,可是针对TOEFL文章的特点,一篇接近300字的议论文,IBT在注重文章的完整性和一致性的同时,也需要文章有精彩的内容。可是文章篇幅有限,我们仅仅需要熟练地应用几个不同的句型,就一定会给评分人留下很深刻的印象了句子中的修辞

我们看看下边的几个例句:

1. Knowledge will never lie。

知之为知之,不知为不知,是智也。

这个句子使用了拟人的修辞手法,赋予了knowledge生命,形象化了知识的严谨性,同时也避免了直接翻译的繁琐冗长。

2. That information comes very impressively to everyone in the job market。

那一信息使所有正在找工作的人为之一震。

这个句子也间接使用了拟人的手法,人性化了Information这个词,come可以把人们接受信息的过程表达的更生动。

3. Confidence never fails to play a significant role in your entire life。

自信在你一生中扮演极其重要的角色。

这个句子中never和fail表示双重否定,用以加强肯定的成分。

这几种句子中的修辞手法都可以使句子的意思表达起来更生动,让人读起来容易接受,同时也避免了直接翻译的很多缺点。

强调句的应用和举例说明

孔子《论语》中的这个经典语句可谓家喻户晓,一句“有朋自远方来,不亦乐乎”道出了中华民族作为礼仪之邦的特点。在托福中,这句话可以应用在关于friendship的文章,这句话直译过来说的是:有朋友从很远的地方来看你难道不是一件很开心的事情吗?通过中文理解,我们知道这句话所强调的部分是:一件很开心的事情。“开心”有很多词汇可以选择,常用的有happy和glad,高级一点的有enjoyable和pleasant,再高级一点的还有incredible和delightful。应用到实际写作中,可以使用it is 做一个强调句来凸显这句话的特点,例如:

It’s delightful to have friends from distant lands。

在这个句子中,除了deightful以外,其他句子成分都很平常,每个人都会写,所以即使是评卷人看到这个句子也不会觉得稀奇,那么作为强调句,恰好是delightful这个词,代表了一种发自心底的喜悦和开心,让读过这个句子的人都有眼前一亮的感觉,这也就达到了强调句的作用。然而happy和glad也都有快乐之意,但是和delightful相比就显得不够级别了,明显高兴的程度不一样,delightful更能显示一种喜悦带来的兴奋,迎接千里迢迢来访的朋友这样的表达最恰当不过了。可以起到强调作用的句型结构有很多,我们能够用到的同位语从句和倒装句都有这样的作用,例如:

It is an undeniable fact that human activities harm the Earth。

这句话中that后边引导的就是要强调的内容,即an undeniable fact. 为了突出harm the Earth是一个不可否认的事实,做成这样一个句子。

Only through effective measures can the government resolve the dispute。

这句话强调的就是only后边的effective measures,而且翻译过来是只有同过有效的措施,强调的唯一性,无二法门。

为什么要倒装

从字面上解释,倒装句子的特点就是把句子倒过来说,这样的解释过于直白但却很实际。根据英语(论坛)句型结构特点,因为要强调才会选择去倒装。我们看看下边的两个例子:

1. So severe is this problem that we have no alternative but to take some feasible measures to deal with it。

2. So amazing are these crewmembers that they have successfully accomplished space walk。

句子中划线的部分就是倒装结构的重点强调所在,关于倒装句的作用,前边已然讲过,这里就不多说了。在TOEFL的具体应用中,我们需要在写作实践里进行检验。

Only through education can we rise in the world。

Only by receiving education can we rise in the world。

从句什么时候使用

在托福写作中,从句句型还是应用比较广泛的,常用的主语、宾语从句,定语从句,还有我们讲过的同位语从句。我见过的托福写作范文中,包括CBT和IBT的两类作文,段落中从句出现的频率都是很高的,尤其是第一段introduction中,一般做背景介绍的时候都会使用宾语从句,例如:some people claim that… 在文章的主体部分中,为了体现句式的变化,各种从句交替应用就显得很重要;即使在iBT导入了first draft的概念之后,对文章的内容要求也没有改变要求,需要体现完整性和统一性。有一点值得注意,从句虽好,但不宜过多重复,这就好像美酒虽好,但不要贪杯的道理一样。好钢用在刀刃上,从句的优点是简单句不能比拟的,但只有简单句结合从句,才能体现句子的多变性;也只有全部的句子都为主题句服务,文章的整体性才会更好的体现。以下是议论文写作中比较好的一些从句例子:

1. Many experts claim that people should positively participate in garbage recycle。

宾语从句,一般出现在首段背景介绍部分。

2. Horror movies, in which there might be bleeding and terrifying scenes, are not recommended for children。

定语从句,一般在主体部分中比较常见,用以解释说明,达到简化句子的目的。

3. As long as you are a student, you should always behave yourself。

第三次课:分词句子中的用法

教学目标: 使学生初步了解及在句子使用分词

教学内容:

一、 动名词及不定式作业讲解

二、分词

现在分词和过去分词两种。

作为谓语,现在分词和be 一起构成进行时;过去分词和be一起构成被动语态,和have一起构成完成时。

例如:

I am reading a novel by Maupassant. 我正在看一本莫泊桑写的小说。(现在分词和be 一起表示主语正在进行的动作。)

Mr. Robinson has drunk five glasses of wine already. 鲁宾逊先生已经喝了五杯酒了。(过去分词和have 一起表示主语已经完成的动作。)

The gold fish bowl was broken by Xiao Tao just now. 金鱼缸刚才被小陶打破了。(过去分词和be 一起表示主语是动作的承受者。)

作为非谓语形式,分词可用作形容词和副词,在句子中充当定语、表语、补语和状语。但它仍保持动词的一般特征,可以有自己的宾语和状语。分词和自己的宾语、状语构成分词短语。 现在分词有一般式和完成式。它的一般式表示和谓语动词所表示的动作同时发生的行为或存在的状态;它的完成式(having + 过去分词)表示在谓语动词所表示的动作之前发生的动作或存在的状态。

现在分词有主动语态和被动语态(being + 过去分词)。

过去分词只有一般式,表示在谓语动词所表示的动作之前发生的动作。过去分词(及物动词)本身可以表示被动的含义,因而没有别的被动形式。

例如:

Having failed three times, he didn’t want to try again. (=As he had failed three times, he didn’t want to try again.) 他失败了三次,不想再干了。(having failed 表示发生在前的动作)

Walking along the sands, Crusoe saw in the sand the mark of a man’s foot. (=While he was walking along the sands, Crusoe?) 克鲁索沿着沙滩走的时候,看见沙上有人的脚印。(walking 表示同时发生的动作)

The question being discussed seems important. (=The question is being discussed. It seems important.) 正在讨论的问题似乎很重要。

The old days are gone. 旧时代一去不复返了。(gone 表示完成的状态)

I had my hair cut yesterday. 我昨天理发了。(cut 是及物动词的过去分词,表示“被人理发”。) 分词的否定形式是在分词短语前面加上not, never等否定词构成。

例如:

Not fearing the fire, the child touched and got a finger burnt. 小孩儿不知道怕火,用手去摸,把手指烫了。

Not knowing how to find the subway, I asked a policeman for help. 我不知道怎样找到地铁,就去找警察帮忙。

(一)现在分词和过去分词的区别

(1)在语态上现在分词表示主动的意思,表示它所修饰的人或物的行为;及物动词的过去分词表示被动的意思,表示它所修饰的人或物是动作的承受者。换言之,现在分词是它修饰

的成分所作出的动作,过去分词是它修饰的成分所承受的动作。

例如:

convincing facts 有说服力的事实 / convinced audience 被说服了的听众

the exploiting class 剥削阶级 / the exploited class被剥削阶级

a frightening dog一条让人害怕的狗 / a frightened dog一条被吓坏了的狗

driving gears主动齿轮 / driven gears从动齿轮

(2)在时间上,现在分词往往表示动作正在进行,过去分词表示动作已完成。

例如:

the rising sun (正在升起的太阳) / the risen sun(升起的太阳)

the falling rain(正在下的雨)/ the fallen leaves(落下的树叶)

stolen money(被盗的钱/偷来的钱)/ill-gotten wealth(不义之财)

a high-flying kite(高飞的风筝)

再看一些例子:

boiling water 沸腾的水/boiled water 开水/developing countries 发展中国家/developed countries 发达国家/an exciting story 令人激动的故事/ excited people 激动的人们

(2)在时间上,现在分词往往表示动作正在进行,过去分词表示动作已完成。

再看一些例子:

surprising news令人惊讶的消息/a surprised man受惊吓的人/an inspiring leader具有号召力的领袖/the inspired soldiers受到鼓舞的士兵/a delighted speech令人高兴的演说/the delighted audience(感到)高兴的听众/a moving film动人的电影/the moved children受到感到的孩子们/a box containing tea装茶叶的盒子/the tea contained in a box装在盒里的茶叶/ falling snow正在下的雪/fallen snow box落在地上的雪

(3)做表语时的不同。现在分词做表语表示主语所具有的特征,意思是“令人如何”。过去分词多表示主语所处的状态,意思是“感到如何”。

例如:

His lecture is disappointing。I’m disappointed。他的演讲令人失望。我感到失望。

We are surprised to hear the news。The news is surprising。我们听到那消息吃了一惊。那消息令人吃惊。

The situation is encouraging。 We’re encouraged。形式使人鼓舞。我们感到鼓舞。

常用的还有:amusing/amused,astonishing/astonished,disappointing/disappointed,exciting/excited,frightening/frightened,interesting interested,moving/moved, relaxing/relaxed,satisfying/satisfied,shocking/shocked,surprising/surprised,terrifying/terrified,tiring/tired,worrying/worried等等。

(4)做状语的区别,分词短语在句中可做时间、原因、方式、伴随状语。现在分词的动作和谓语动作同时或几乎同时发生、意思是主动的。而过去分词的动作在谓语动作之前发生、意思是被动的。

例如:

Seeing nobody at home,she decided to leave them a note。看到没人在家,她决定给他们留个条。(主动意义,几乎同时)

The secretary worked late into the night,preparing a speech for the president。秘书工作到晚上很晚,给总统准备一篇演说。(主动意义,同时)

Tired of the noise,he closed the window。对噪音感到厌烦,所以他把窗户关上。(被动意义,

在谓语之前)

Deeply moved,she thanked me again and again。她深深地受了感动,再三谢我。(被动意义,在谓语之前)

Persuade by my mother,she gladly went there alone。在我母亲劝说下,她才高兴地独自去那里。(被动意义,在谓语之前)

如果现在分词的动作在谓语动作之前发生,现在分词要用完成形式,但意思仍然是主动的。 例如:

Having watered the vegetables,they began to pick up the Apples。=After they had watered the vegetables,they began to pick up the apples。他们浇完了蔬菜之后就开始摘苹果。 Having finished the work,he packed his tools and left。完工后,他收拾起工具走了。 分词做状语时,前面可用连词或介词。

例如:

After eating my dinner quickly,I went to see Jim off。我赶快吃过晚饭就去给吉姆送行。 Though built before the Second World War,the engine is still in good condition。尽管是在二战以前建的,这引擎仍然处于良好状态。

Unless paying by credit card,please pay in cash。如果不用信用卡付款,请用现金付。 Tom will never do this unless compelled。汤姆永远也不会干这种事,除非被逼无奈。 She’s been quite different since coming back from America。从美国回来后,她大变了。

(二)用法

1.作定语。作定语的分词通常放在被修饰的名词之前。如果被修饰的词是something,anything,everything,nothing等,则分词放在这些词之后。分词短语通常放在被修饰的名词之后。

例如:

This is an interesting book。(=This is a book。It is interesting。)这是一本有趣的书。

There is something interesting in the news。(=There is something in the news。 It is interesting。)消息中有些有趣的事。

The man sitting by the window is our math teacher。(=The man who is sitting by the window is our math teacher。)靠窗户坐着的那个人是我们的数学老师

The machine run by the old worker is made in Shanghai。(=The machine that is run by the old worker is made in Shanghai。)那位老工人开的机器是上海造的。

Most of students singing were girls。(=Most of the students who were singing?)唱歌的学生多数是女生。

Many of the villagers questioned refused to answer。(=Many of the villagers who were questioned?)被问的许多村里人都拒绝。

注意:(1)分词作定语与动名词作定语的区别:

分词和它所修饰的名词有逻辑上的主、谓关系。动名词则没有这种关系,而表示它所修饰的词的用途或有关动作。

现在分词 动名词

A sleeping child(a child who is sleeping)正在睡觉的孩子 A sleeping car(a car for sleeping)卧车

A flying bird(a bird that is flying)飞鸟 A flying course(a course for flying)飞行课程

A swimming girl(a girl who is swimming)游泳的女孩 A swimming pool(a pool for swimming)游泳池

The running water(the water that is running)流水 The running track(the track for running)跑道 现在分词和它所修饰的名词都要重读,动名词所修饰的名词则不必重读。

(2)现在分词作定语时,它表示动作正在进行或与谓语动词所表示的动作同时发生(或差不多同时发生)。

例如:

Who is the boy dancing over there?在那儿跳舞的少年是谁呀?

The girls swimming in the sea were in danger。 在海里游泳的姑娘们有危险。

如果两个动作在时间上有先后,一般不能用现在分词作定语,而往往用主从复合句结构。 例如:

The man who has gone to Shanghai will be back again。到上海去的那个人会回来的。

The teacher wants to talk to the students who smashed the windows。老师要找打破了窗子的那个学生谈话。

(3)be的现在分词being不能用作定语(可用作状语或被动语态中的助动词)。表示这种概念时,也用主从复合句结构。

例如:

He has a brother who is a worker。他有一个当工人的兄弟。

2、作状语。分词和分词短语作状语时,可以表示时间、原因、行为方式等意义。表示时间和原因的分词短语相当于对应的状语从句。

例如:

Seeing the teacher entering the room,the students stood up。(=When the students saw the teacher entering the room,They stood up。)学生们看见老师走进房间,都站了起来。 (时间)

Heated,the Metal expands。 (=The metal expands if /when it is heated。)金属受热而膨胀。(条件、时间)

Being excited,I couldn’t go to sleep。(=As I was excited ,I couldn’t go to sleep。)我兴奋得睡不着觉。(原因)

Being a student,he was interested in sports。(=As he was a student,he was interested in sports。) 他是个学生,所以对体育运动感兴趣。(原因)

Inspired by Dr.Yang’s speech,Li Hua and his classmates decided to study physics harder。(=As they were inspired by Dr.Yang’s speech,Li Hua and his classmates decided to study physics harder。)李华和他的同学们受到杨博士讲话的鼓舞,决定更加努力学习物理。 (原因) The children went away laughing。=The children went away。They laughed as they went。孩子们笑着走开了。(行为方式)

The professor stood there,surrounded by many students。(=The professor stood there。He was surrounded by many students。)教授站在那里,许多学生围着他。(行为方式)

While reading the newspaper,father nodded from time to time。(=While he was reading the newspaper,father nodded from time to time。)看报时,父亲不时地点头。(时间)(分词前,可加表示时间的连词while或when。)

3、作宾语补足语。

例如:

Can you get the machine going again?你能使机器再动起来吗?

You should have your hair cut。你该理发了。

I saw him coming last night。我昨天晚上看见他来了。

4、作表语。

例如:

The film is very moving。这部影片很感人。

Your homework is well done。你的作业做得好。

The visitors looked surprised.参观者看上去很惊讶。

The boys were seen walking on the grass。有人看见孩子们在草地上散步。

5、作句子独立成分(分词有自己的逻辑主语时,称为独立主格结构。)

例如:

Flags flying,the army men marched in the streets。旗帜飘扬,军队在街上行进。

All his ribs broken,he lay half dead。他的肋骨全部折断,半死不活地躺着。

分词(短语)作状语时,其逻辑主语必须与句子的主语一致。如果不一致,必须用独立主格结构来表示,也就是在分词前面加上它的逻辑主语。

My wife had a long talk with Sally, explaining why she didn’t want the children to play together我妻子与莎莉谈了很长时间,解释她为什么不想让孩子们在一起玩。(现在分词explaining是句子主语my wife做的动作,它们之间是主动关系)

Given more attention,the trees could have grown better。如果对这些树多关心一些,它们本来会长得更好。(过去分词given表示的动作是句子主语the trees承受的动作,它们之间是被动关系)

We explored the caves,Peter acting as guide。我们到那山洞探险,彼得做向导。 (独立主格) The train having gone,we had to wait another day。分词短语做状语时,前面可以加上连词或介词,但是分词短语和句子之间不能用并列连词(如but,and),因为并列连词接的是两个并列成分,而分词短语只是全句的一个状语部分。分词和主句之间可用逗号。

例如:

误:Having been told many times,but he still couldn’t understand it。

正:He was told many times, but he still couldn’t understand it。

注意:(1)分词作状语时,逻辑主语即句子的主语;否则要用从句或独立主格结构来表示。 例如:

Looking out of the window,I saw lots of people there。(=When I looked out of the window,I saw lots of people there。)

我往窗外一看,看见那儿有许多人。 (looking out of the window的逻辑主语,就是句子的主语I。)

(2)在see,hear,watch,notice等动词后,用动词不定式作宾语补语,通常表示(强调)动作从开始到结束的全过程。如果用现在分词作宾语补语,则通常表示动作正在进行。 例如:

We sat two hours and watched the teacher make the experiment。我们坐了两个小时,看老师做实验。(两小时一直在看老师做实验)

We passed by the classroom and saw the teacher making the experiment。我们走过教室,看见老师在做实验。(只是在走过教宰的一刹那间,看见老师正存做实验)

I saw him enter the room, unlock a drawer, take out a document, photograph it and put it back。我看见他走进房间,打开抽屉,拿出一份文件,拍了照又放回去(表示一个接一个的一系列动作的全过程时,用动词不定式。
