雅思写作中经常会遇到哪些问题
在雅思考试中,面临着议论文不会写,记叙文也写不明白的尴尬。而中国的英文写作考试都有固定的模板和规格,所以雅思写作成了一个难题,下面来看下学生经常会遇到哪些问题。
雅思写作会遇到哪些问题
1、看不懂题目
词汇量有限,甚至有些单词会混淆,再加上在考场上紧张,很多同学洋洋洒洒写完一篇才发现自己跑题了。
举个例子,几年前某一场雅思考试的大作文题目说到了一个单词technique,很多同学写成了technology,明显没有搞清楚这两个词的差别,这是雅思考场上经常出现的“失误”。
同学在背单词的时候,总是不约而同的犯着同样的错误,背了就忘,看着哪个词都面熟,就是想不起来。
针对这个问题,建议用相似的中文发音帮助记忆,或者词根词缀的方法背诵,在文章中背单词要比背字典要有效的多。
2、没有思路
遇到很多考生在考试后或者上课中问过这样一个问题:“老师,我真不知道写什么”,平时多积累才能有素材。
积累分两种,一种是知识的积累,有一些同学是喜欢看各类书籍,关注各种时事新闻,这些无形的积累都会在写作的环节帮助他打开思维;另一种积累是针对雅思写作常见的几大类型题目的积累。
思维,永远不是别人灌输或者突变的,一定是天生或者后天的多动脑多用脑形成和改变的。
3、单词用的太简单
有这样一种学生,他们专门背诵一些很高端并且属性很中性的词汇或词组,并且不管是什么类型的题目,他总可以用这些词如鱼得水的搭配各种句子,并且并不会生硬或者突兀,实在难得。
但是,更多同学,只能用自己常用的词汇,这样并没有不好,只要表达清楚也可,但是,问题就在于,重复的大量使用,就会影响成绩。
建议大家如果备考的时间短,仍可以选择正确的简单词汇,但是下次再想用这个词的时候不妨换成另相同含义的简单词。
总的来说,雅思写作中想要考高分是不简单的,这中间需要对题目有深入的看法,用你的逻辑进行科学的论证。
提高雅思写作技巧:选择最恰当的语法结构
选择合适的语法结构可以使句子意思的表达更为精确和简练。虽然语法的多样性也很重要,但选择最恰当的语法结构仍然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重要的意思。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,
建议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 25cows 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 ”,而使用了被动语态后,仿佛重心变成了 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,例如下面这句话:
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.
