雅思作文应该怎么写

很多雅思考生一到雅思写作考试就容易卡壳,想要表达的单词想不出,熟悉的写作单词不会用,单词搭配不熟悉,等等问题,导致雅思分数始终难以提高。
第一、要扩充词汇,分类记忆相关词汇。
雅思词汇不是孤立地存在于文章中的,它必定是与一定的话题或语境相联系的,因此,我们在记忆雅思词汇时,可以采取按照话题分类记忆的方法。这样,比起"字典式"A-Z的记忆法,分类记忆不仅高效,而且我们遇到相关话题时,也可以将这些相关词汇随手拈来,在写作中自然是得心应手,事半功倍。
雅思的写作话题基本上可以划分为教育、科技、文化、政府、媒体和环境这六大类。我们在记忆单词的时候,可以按照这些话题分类来背相关词汇和短语,比如说"环境"这个话题,我们可以将"chemical-waste"【化工废料】、"disposable products"【一次性产品】、 "ecology"【生态学】和"desertification"【沙漠化】等这些跟环境有关的词汇和短语一起打包记忆,不仅可以拓宽我们的思路,而且在论证的过程中也可以让我们的论据充分,论证有力。
第二、要分辨词义,用词准确。
正如前文中所提到的,尽管中文意思相同,许多英语单词在内涵意义,感情色彩和文化内涵上都是有所区别的,因此,我们在记忆词汇,尤其是同义词时,一定要清楚明白每个单词使用的具体语境是什么,切忌不顾一切,随意替换。比如"family"和"home"在中文都是"家"的意思,而"family"主要是指家庭成员,"home"则是指家庭住宅,其内涵意义是截然不同的。再者,要注意每个单词的固定搭配,切忌"闭门造词",想当然地用中式英语写作。
第三、要学会巧用同义词、反义词和派生词。
在雅思写作中,要想做到词汇的多样性和表达的准确高效性,除了词汇的同义替换之外,反义词与派生词也是不错的 "秘密武器"。同义词在此就不再多费笔墨了,只是提醒广大考生在使用时要注意具体语境,能做到具体情况具体分析。
而巧用反义词和派生词,不仅可以让我们的行文词汇富于变化,而且在句式表达方式也可以多变。如 "Fads are not unique to the United States. It is generally believed that fades are common in any country that has a strong consumer economy。",句中的"unique"和"common"这对反义词的妙用就避免了简单词汇的重复使用,也使原文肯定句与否定句交错使用,句型上也做到了多样性。
雅思作文高分要点
要点一:涵盖题目所有要求
拿官方网站最新公布的留学类第一篇作文样题为例,两个图表分别显示的是1985年到1995年日本国民海外游的数量变化以及其中去澳大利亚旅游的人数的变化。在写这篇文章时,考生应首先将十年来日本国民海外游的数量变化趋势以及去澳大利亚的人数变化趋势概括出来,然后进行细化,看其趋势的变化有没有起伏、如何表现等,再对两组数据进行比较,最后进行总结,这样才能充分涵盖题目的要求。如果只是简单的罗列堆砌,不做任何的分析、概括和比较,扣分就难以避免了。
因此,考生在复习备考阶段不要盲目地练写文章,要多训练提高信息归类和概括能力。
要点二:结构清楚合理
结构清楚,从文章整体来说是讲一篇文章起码要有开头、中间和结尾,每个中间段要有一句主题句总领整段,下面依次展开,最后有一句话收尾。结构合理则是指文章的论证结构合理,特别是高分作文,立场要非常清晰。
最新公布的留学类第二篇作文的题目是有关于对儿童兼职的不同看法。在写这篇文章时,考生首先就要鲜明地提出自己是否支持儿童做兼职,之后在过渡段里提及与自己意见不同的论点,说明理由是什么,其后放主要的笔墨论证自己的观点,可以结合亲身经历或了解到的实例来证明观点的正确性,最后进行总结陈述,进一步确认对于儿童应不应该做兼职的观点和意见。
在备考雅思时,考生要注意文章结构的建立,力求做到结构清楚、论证比例合理。
要点三:词汇运用丰富、灵活
新评分标准最大的改变是把老评分标准的第三方面“词汇和语法”分解成词汇和语法两个细则。这样一来,词汇和语法、任务完成或任务反应、连贯与衔接在评分时的权重是一样的。所以,要获得雅思作文高分,同时也要在词汇上狠下功夫才行。
在词汇的准备方面,要注意宽度和难度两方面的训练。词汇的宽度是指在一篇要求字数的文章内,能用不同的语言表达同一个内容,避免重复,如用grow、goup、increase、rise、raise、boost等不同词汇表达“上升”这个意思。词汇的难度,是指在文章中是选用比较幼稚的词汇,还是有一定文体标准、适合于学术场景表达的词汇。大多数中国考生都会普遍使用at the same time来表示“与此同时”,但是在正式文体里,表达此意的词应为mean while或in the meantime。
雅思写作简洁漂亮的技巧
妙招一:避免空洞的单词和词组
1.一些空洞的单词或词组根本不能为句子带来任何相关的或重要的信息,完全可以被删掉。
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.有些空洞和繁琐的表达方式可以进行替换
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。
妙招二:避免重复
1.尽量避免重复使用同样的词汇。或者有的时候虽然词汇没有重复,但意思却有重复。这时候可以做一些简化的工作。
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.有时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&0#39; 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&0#39; farm。
妙招三: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,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.
雅思写作怎么写开头
1.例如在写关于该不该禁烟的话题时,可以这样开头:A recent study conducted by Zhongshan University has found that the number of smokers has been increasing sharply over the past five years. Research findings also reveal that the incidence of smoking-related conditions has soared. As a result, the ban on smoking has been in the spotlight.
【中山大学最近做的一个研究表明,在过去五年里,吸烟人数急剧上升。研究结果同时显示,吸烟导致的疾病发病率也急剧增长。因此,禁烟成为一个热点话题。这个开头通过媒体报道把问题呈现在读者面前,从而引出吸烟比例急剧上升造成的危害,引发读者思考。
2. 提出有争议性的问题,激发读者兴趣,使其积极参与讨论
例如在写到警察是否应该持枪这篇文章时作者说 If police in the U.K. are able to go without guns and not have crime getting completely out of control then they have already set a fine example that other countries should follow. The fact that they are able to do this is an indication of their ability to control the flow of guns to the general populace and this makes citizens safer than anything else. To a civilian, taking guns away from criminals is more important than giving them to
police. 提出这个有争议的话题,激发读者的兴趣,使读者积极参与到讨论中来,让大家各抒己见进行讨论。
3. 引起读者兴趣的话题
例如在写关于体罚的话题文章时,采用这样一个开头:It is reported that a boy in Zhuhai was beaten to
death by his father on Father' Day. Ample evidence also shows that children who are frequently abused by their parents or teachers tend to be introverted, pessimistic, indifferent and even world-weary. Recently, there has arisen a fierce argument on whether corporal punishment should be abolished. Teachers,parents and experts take diverse attitudes towards this
issue.【据报道,在父亲节那天,珠海有个小男孩被爸爸打死了。充分的证据也显示,经常遭父母或老师虐待的小孩往往比较内向、悲观、冷漠甚至厌世。近来,关于是否应该废除体罚出现了一场激烈的争论,老师、家长和专家各执一词。】当读者看到这个话题时产生了浓厚的兴趣进而引起了对这件事情的思考。
4. 呈现该话题正反方的观点
例如在写到男性和女性谁可以做更好的父母时可以这样开头:At the mere mention of women governing the world, most of us may naturally form an unrealistic picture of a more peaceful world where the sun always shines. The other side of the picture, however, is just to the opposite.
在开头提出两种不同的观点,不同的读者可以根据自己对问题的看法进行思考,从而引发读者的探究心理,进一步思考这个问题从而得出结论。
