雅思写作需要了解的一些技巧 帮助大作文进步
把细节性名词用并列关系罗列出来,对于增加大作文说服力来说举足轻重,并且可以同时增加词汇单项得分。
我们来体会下面两个句子:
1.Researchers, now analyzing the results of data gathered in 1994, say arthritis, high blood pressure and circulation problem are troubling a smaller proportion every year.
2.Recently, elderly people are growing healthier.
相比于开头那句话来说,第二句话就显得too general,读者既不能明白这句话想表达的意义,也不能形成一个情景化,那么就很难产生共鸣,简而言之就缺乏说服力。相反如果老年人的常见疾病不仅能想到还都会写,比如关节炎,高血压和血液循环相关问题都会写,那么不仅能提升说服力,增进上下文的连贯,还能够大大增加考官对于学生词汇范围的认可。因为这些也不是一些所谓适配词汇(每篇文章都能写入进去的),而是具体这道话题相关的词汇。
很多同学可能会有疑问,这些细节素材我们要如何准备呢?这里给大家几个建议:
1.朗阁给大家发了一本词汇书《分手大师》,书后的写作词汇其实按照8大类话题,给6分阶段和7分阶段的学生分别准备了两份不同难度的话题词汇,首先要做的是把这些整理出来的常用表达背完。
比如:如果我们要讲到“发展清洁能源应为新环保政策的核心(Developing clean energy should be placed at the core of the new environmental protection policy).” 那我们立刻想一下清洁能源可能包含哪些呢?如果论述细节能写到“风力,水力,太阳能和核能(wind power, hydro power, solar energy and nuclear energy)” ,那么关于论证细节已经小有所成。如果我们再努努力,把词汇书背完的同学们还可以用到“ocean thermal energy conversion, tidal power, geothermal energy” ,无论是细节和论述完整性,还是词汇是不是都可以有所突破了呢。
2.大家手上其实都有两份非常好的素材,一份是剑桥书后的考官范文,另一份就是刷过的阅读真题,比如上面给大家提供的例句就是来自于剑桥阅读文章,稍加利用是不是可能成为雅思大作文“老年人口相关问题”的论述素材。
来自于阅读文章的例子:
*On the other hand, dams, aqueducts and other kinds of infrastructure will still have to be built, particularly in developing countries where basic human needs have not been met.
来自于考官范文的例子:
*For example, if sufficient sky trains and underground train systems were built and effectively maintained in our major cities, then traffic on the roads would be dramatically reduced.(这个句子还包含了一个行为并列built and maintained也是典型的详细论述的体现,我们将在后续模块中展开)
*Long-distance train and coach services should be made attractive and affordable alternatives to driving your own car for long journeys.(同样这个句子还有一个形容词的并列展开attractive and affordable值得关注)
3.有些同学会看一些学术报刊杂志,比如“The Economist”,那么有些同学会看见极限的名词细节罗列的典范。
*For example, large areas of land could be utilized far better if efficient methods of watershed control, fertilizer use, weather forecasting, fertility assessment, plantation programming, field selection, planting habits, timing of cultivation, crop survey and harvest planning were applied. 如此多的细节很难让读者质疑作者对于这个问题思考的完整性和因此产生的说服力。
