雅思写作3大注意及高分技巧!细节就是魔鬼。这个道理在雅思写作中同样适用,一切的写作技巧都让位于对写作的细节深刻把握。大家在平时的写作练习中,可以根据雅思写作评分标准来衡量自己的写作水平:写作任务完成情况、连贯与衔接、词汇丰富程度、语法多样性及准确性。当然想要达到雅思写作高分,不仅要做到以上几点,还应该注意以下几点:
雅思写作高分技巧一:拒绝堆砌无意义的单词和词组
1.一些不必要的单词或词组不仅不能为句子带来任何相关的或重要的信息,甚至还有反面效果。
比如:When all things are considered, young adults of today live more satisfying lives than those of their parents, in my opinion。
这句话当中的“when all things are considered”和“in my opinion“都显得多余。完全可以去掉。改为:
Young adults of today live more satisfying lives than their parents。
2.替换无聊的表达,迷恋写出复杂的长难句,却让整个句子显得特别冗长,其实并不会给你的雅思作文加分。
例如:Due to the fact that our grandparents were under an obligation to help their parents, they did not have the options that young people have at this point in time。
“due to the fact that”就是一个很典型的繁琐的表达方式的例子,可以替换,简化为下面的表达方式:
Because our grandparents were obligated to help their parents, they did not have the options that young people have now。
雅思写作高分技巧二:拒绝重复词汇和表达
1.雅思写作评分标准中有一点:丰富性。大家有的时候虽然词汇没有重复,但意思却有重复。这也不算达标“丰富性”。这时候大家可以尝试做一些简化的工作。
例如下面这个例子:The farm my grandfather grew up on was large in size。
large对一个farm来说就是size方面的large,所以in size可以去掉,改为:
The farm my grandfather grew up on was large。
更简洁的表达方式为:
My grandfather grew up on a large farm。
2.一个词组可以用一个更简单的单词来替换
例如:My grandfather has said over and over again that he had to work on his parents' farm。
这里的over and over again就可以改为repeatedly,显得更为简洁:
My grandfather has said repeatedly that he had to work on his parents' farm。
雅思写作技巧三:善用正确的语法结构
恰当的语法结构可以使句子意思的表达更为精简。虽然语法的多样性很重要,但选择最恰当的语法结构仍是更为重要的考虑因素。以下原则是在考虑选择何种语法结构时可以参考的原则:
1.一个句子的主语和谓语动词应该能够反映句子中的最主要的意思。
例如:The situation that resulted in my grandfather's not being able to study engineering was that his father needed help on the farm。
从意思上来分析,上面这句话需要表达的重要的概念是“grandfather's not being able to study”,而在表达这个概念时,原句用的主语是situation,谓语动词是was,不能强调需要表达的重点概念,可以改为下面这句话:
My grandfather couldn't study engineering because his father needed help on the farm。
2.避免频繁使用“there be”结构
例如下面的句子:There were 25 cows on the farm that my grandfather had to milk every day. It was hard work for my grandfather。
可以改为:
My grandfather worked hard. He had to milk 25 cows on the farm every day。
更简洁的句式为:
My grandfather worked hard milking 25 cows daily。
3.把从句改为短语或单词。
例如:Dairy cows were raised on the farm, which was located100 kilometers from the nearest university and was in an area that was remote。
简介的表达方式为:
The dairy farm was located in a remote area, 100 kilometers to the nearest university。
4.仅在需要强调宾语而不是主语的时候,才使用被动语态。
例如:In the fall, not only did the cows have to be milked, but also the hay was mowed and stacked by my grandfather's family。
本句不够简洁的原因是本句的重心应该是“忙碌的家庭-my grandfather's family”,而使用了被动语态後,彷佛重心变成了cows和hay。下面的表达方式是主动语态,相对来说更简洁一些:
In the fall, my grandfather's family not only milked the cow but also mowed and stacked the hay。
5.用更为精确的一个动词来代替动词短语,
例如:My grandfather didn't have time to stand around doing nothing with his school friends。
Stand around doing nothing其实可以用一个动词来表达,即loiter:
My grandfather didn't have time to loiter with his school friends。
6.有时两句话的信息经过组合完全可以用一句话来简练地表达
例如:Profits from the farm were not large. Sometimes they were too small to meet the expenses of running a farm. They were not sufficient to pay for a university degree。
两句话的信息可以合并为下面这句更为简洁的句子:
Profits from the farm were sometimes too small to meet operational expenses, let alone pay for a university degree。
