雅思寫作有哪些實用技巧?
壹:拒絕無謂的單詞和詞組
壹些不必要的單詞或詞組根本不能為句子帶來任何相關的或重要的信息,完全可以被刪掉。
比如:When all things are considered, young adults of today live more satisfying lives than those of their parents, in my opinion。
這句話當中的?when all things are considered?和?in my opinion?都顯得多余。完全可以去掉。改為:
Young adults of today live more satisfying lives than their parents。
替換無聊的表達,故意寫出復雜的長難句,但是讓整個句子顯得特別冗長,其實並不會給妳的雅思作文加分。
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?就是壹個很典型的繁瑣的表達方式的例子,可以替換,簡化為下面的表達方式:
Because our grandparents were obligated to help their parents, they did not have the options that young people have now。
二:拒絕重復詞匯和表達
雅思寫作評分標準中有壹點:豐富性。很多考生做不到在寫作中使用更豐富的詞匯和表達,也就與高分失之交臂。有的時候雖然詞匯沒有重復,但意思卻有重復。這時候可以做壹些簡化的工作。
例如下面這個例子:The farm my grandfather grew up on was large in size。
large對壹個farm來說就是size方面的large,所以in size可以去掉,改為:
The farm my grandfather grew up on was large。
更簡潔的表達方式為:
My grandfather grew up on a large farm。
有時壹個詞組可以用壹個更簡單的單詞來替換
例如:My grandfather has said over and over again that he had to work on his parents' farm。
這裏的over and over again就可以改為repeatedly,顯得更為簡潔:
My grandfather has said repeatedly that he had to work on his parents' farm。
