通往雅思写作高分的天堑
朗阁海外考试研究中心
雅思写作得分往往是考生们听说读写四门中最低的,这主要是因为写作考的是考生的综合能力。综合能力的提高是获取雅思高分的关键,下面朗阁海外考试研究中心的老师将总结一些中国考生在写作综合能力方面的薄弱环节,以期让考生们克服这些弱项,取得写作高分。
一、心态
从雅思考试四部分来看,考生一般认为阅读和听力具备大量的解题技巧,只要将这些解题技巧掌握了,提高就会很快,所以将得分的关键压在了听力和阅读上面,这导致各门科目备考时间分配不平均。除此之外,很多考生认为口语也有一系列的应付方法和考场对策,对之抱有很大的复习以及练习的热情。相比之下,中国考生在写作这一块花的时间以及精力就惨不忍睹了,很多考生不愿意甚至是惧怕去写雅思作文,到头来写作总共就没练过几次,以至于找不到写作文的节奏和感觉。到了考场上,必然会因为发挥不出真实的写作水平导致分数不理想。
二、思维的固化
有学者曾经提出过文化思维对话语模式的影响,认为西方人的思维是直线型,而东方人的思维是螺旋型的。西方人写文章的时候直接表达必定优于间接表达,并且说话人的立场保持一致,不会用无关的信息掩盖真实的观点。因此英语写作一般以直线展开,通常包含四个部分:引出、主题、支撑、结论。
反之,中国人是螺旋式思维,写文章的时候,把思想发散出去了还要收回来,让它落在原来的起点上。这样的圆型思维导致了汉语表达的螺旋式结构,即以反复而又发展的螺旋形式对一种问题加以展开,尽量避免直接切入主题,喜欢用描述性语言进行迂回说明。这样的写作方式是不符合雅思写作要求的。
很多考生的大作文开头都会出现非常“经典”的表达:with the development of science and technology…, 这纯粹属于没话找话说的类型,是考官们痛恨的模板。
三、套句以及框架
目前网络上和市面上有很多所谓的写作中能利用的万能套句和关于整篇文章的万能模板框架。这些套句和模板深受考生的大力追捧和喜爱,因为他们认为通过套句和模板能简化写作任务,使写作变得相对轻松和容易。但是殊不知这些套句和模板有时候却是致命的,雅思
专家认为:首先,套句和模板非常死板不灵活,导致考生观点和句子表达机械,脱节,给人一种别扭的感觉。另外,考官见识过许多所谓的模板文章,对此非常反感,因为模板文章体现的并不是考生的英语能力而是记忆能力。第三,套句和模板大多为一些空洞的语言,不具备实际意义,这样的文章分数必然不会高。因此朗阁专家建议考生们不要再使用以下的滥词滥句了:every coin has two sides;there are more and more people…;there is no doubt that… has both advantages and disadvantages;some people hold the opinion that… 等。
四、缺乏逻辑
雅思写作Task 2要求考生根据一个大众广泛关注的有争议的话题写一篇议论文。议论文是作者对某个问题或某件事进行分析、评论,表明自己观点、立场、态度、看法和主张的一种文体,非常注重说理的准确性和逻辑性。朗阁海外考试研究中心分析发现中国考生在议论文写作中除了英语表达上的困难和对某些题目内容缺乏了解之外,最值得关注的地方便在于论证的逻辑思维能力不足。主要体现在论据对论点支撑时段落的统一性和发散性不够。另外连接词使用混乱,句与句关系不明。这些问题的原因在于考生在以前的英语学习中注重的只是词汇和语法的积累和学习,对于逻辑思维的训练基本为零,因此难以获得雅思写作高分。
五、思路狭隘和观点匮乏
雅思写作的题目范围比较广泛,从文化类到教育类,从环境类到政府类,许多考生在面对写作题目时常会遇到知识的盲点,导致无从下笔。另外还有一种情况:有些考生平时懒于思考,未经过论点发散训练,这也导致他们在考试中因思路不开阔,思考不出足够的论点来支撑文章从而只有将同样的论点换表达方式反复的说。第三,平时对和写作有关的话题阅读不够,缺乏对论点的积累,造成考试当中拿到简单的话题也无点可用。
六、英语基础薄弱
许多参加雅思考试的考生并非英语专业的学生,另外还有一些高中生出去读本科,本来英语基础就比较薄弱,又或者有一些移民类的考生,基本没学过英语。总的来说,以这样的状态参加雅思考试是很难达到要求的,尤其写作科目需要体现考生使用英语的综合能力。
考生的作文中往往会出现一些比较低级的错误:如语法结构(主谓一致)、单词拼写、词性以及搭配的问题。这些问题如果在一篇文章中出现次数过多,将直接导致考官对学生的英语水平产生质疑,写作分数会直接降到5分或者5分以下。
总之,写作是一个人语言使用能力最真实的反映。针对以上所述问题,考生们应当根据自己的真实情况来制定合理的目标与学习方针。解决写作问题,对于提高雅思成绩也是一个至关重要的因素。
第二篇:朗阁雅思培训-雅思写作高分句型
雅思写作高分句型
朗阁海外考试研究中心尧亿丛
在雅思写作中,考生如果想得到高分,除了需要依靠较出彩的思想、高分单词以及常见关联词外,还需要运用高分句型。在这些句型中,除了常见的从句(定语从句、状语从句以及名词性从句)之外,强调形式和倒装形式更是拿分的关键点。以下,朗阁海外考试研究中心的专家将对此类句型进行总结。
一、强调形式
强调形式总共分成五大类:
1.对动词进行强调(dodoesdid + V)
Sitting in front of the screen the eye and physical posture of children.Some people that the overuse of chemicals(e.g.Fertilizers and
2.双重否定可表强调
We cannot deny that receiving the distance education is drawbacks.3.比较状语可表强调 to develop the children’s ability of learning on their own.to deal with their academic life those who do not have the gap year spent in working or travelling.4.what引导的主从可表强调
is the failure of the government’s policies.5.强调句型可表强调, 所强调的可以是单词、短语,也可以是从句,但必须保证其结构完整。被强调的成分可以是主语、表语、宾语、同位语、状语等,但不能是定语或谓语。
should shoulder the responsibility to protect the endangered species.(对主语强调)member.(对主语强调)
the young unemployed would have the opportunity to get jobs again.(对状语强调)(对宾语进行强调)
注:强调句中的时态要根据原句的时态而定。即原句为过去某种时态,则强调句中的be就用过去时;原句为现在的某种时态,强调句中就用be的现在时态。有时还可以用It might be/must have been/can’t be…that等句式。
例句:
they spend longer time in travelling.young people.强调句的判断:强调句型可以通过“还原法”来进行判断,若删除强调句型结构后,句子能还原为一个完整的句子,就是强调句。强调句可以看作是用固定的表达-It is/was…that(which, who, whom, where, when)…, 将句子的某个成分(除了谓语)进行重点强调。但是,去掉这个固定的句型部分,句子本身并无任何变化。
二、倒装形式
倒装共分两类:全部倒装和部分倒装。全部倒装是指将全部谓语动词都放在主语之前。部分倒装是指将谓语的一部分如助动词,系动词或情态动词放在主语之前。如果句中的谓语没有助动词或情态动词,则需添加助动词do, does或did, 并将其放在主语之前。
A.全部倒装:把全部谓语放在主语前。
1.there be句型(特殊的全部倒装句型)
There be…是一种较为常见的句子结构,通常用于表达“某地有某人或某物”,在使用此句型结构时,应注意下列问题:
1)主谓一致
例句:
There is little opportunity for children to stay at home until the age of 7 because their parents are both working.There are many reasons why we should not slaughter animals for their fur or leather.2)be动词可以是任何时间状态
例句:
There have been many government which invest a large sum of money in researching the space.There has been a discussion over whether children should be sent to school at a young age.3)在There be结构中除了运用动词be之外,还可以用seem, appear, happen, exist等。在这种句型中,谓语的单复数形式根据靠近谓语的主语而定。
例句:
There seemed to be no permanent solution to the disappearance of minority languages and cultures.2.there here now then放在句首时,句子进行全部倒装。
to realize the seriousness of this problem and take actions immediately.3.方位状语开头时,句子进行全部倒装。
On the internet are provided all kinds of entertainment activities.In books are embalmed the greatest thoughts of all ages.4.主语与表语互换位置(当主语过长而表语过短时,可以把主语与表语互换位置从而构成全部倒装)Important is that the government raises people’s awareness of the environmental protection.5.伴随状语开头(With或Along with放在句首时,句子应该全部倒装)With globalization have come many problems.B.部分倒装:只将情态动词、助动词或系动词放在主语前
1.only +单词、词组、状语从句位于句首,句子进行部分倒装。
2.以否定意义状语开头,句子进行部分倒装。
3.neither nor开头,句子进行部分倒装。
The financial incentive is not the only factor in encouraging employees, neither Economic success is not the only factor in achieving happiness, neither is social status.4.so开头,句子进行部分倒装。
5.让步状语从句由though或as引导时可用倒装,将表语放在句子最前面。as the mainstream form of education.6.so that引导的结果状语从句可用倒装。it.总之,如果考生能将这些原则运用到位,那么在雅思考试中写作成绩出高分是指日可待的。但是句型的熟悉还是在于勤奋的练习,所以朗阁海外考试研究中心还是建议众多的考生们勤加练习,在考试的时候才可以信手拈来。

第四篇:雅思写作高分
雅思写作大作文必看高分范文
TASK 2: 高分范文一
Individuals can do nothing to improve the environment;only governments and large companies can make a difference.To what
do you agree or disagree?
Nowadays, an increasing number of people are concerned about environmental protection and regard it as one of the most important challenges.However, whether only governments and big firms have resources and powers to preserve our environment is a controversial issue.My view is that every single citizen could also make a huge difference.In the first place, it is clear that it is human activities that have the greatest impact throughout the history.Both environment contamination and conservation are the long-term process, and no single government or big company can meet this challenge alone.So whoever created the problem should be responsible for solving it;environment protection needs every one of us to continuously participate in.Moreover, the public’s wills and behaviors have critical influence on government’s policies and companies’ strategies.For example, if everyone says “no” to plastic shopping bags and paper cups, the companies that manufacture such products will switch to environmental-friendly substitutes in order to survive in the market.However, that is not to say that governments and large companies cannot positively contribute.Indeed, governments can enact laws and introduce programs to raise the public’s low-carbon awareness;companies can promote green products to change the public’s consuming habits.But they also need every citizen’s appreciation and support to bring good results.In sum, no effort is too small when we are protecting the environment.Meanwhile, local authorities and organizations must shoulder their responsibility to develop low-carbon economy at the macro level.Only by doing so can we assure that we could hand this beautiful planet to our next generation and the next generation after.TASK 2: 高分范文二-----Argumentation
The Internet has dramatically altered our lives over the past few decades.Although some of these changes have been negative, the overall effect of this technology has been positive.What are your opinions on this?
The Internet has brought significant changes to our lives in recent years.However, there remains some disagreement as to whether the overall effect of this technology has been positive or negative.While there are certainly valid arguments to the contrary, I personally believe that the benefits of the Internet far outweigh its drawbacks and these benefits are twofold.First of all, it is an indisputable fact that the Internet has revolutionized the way we communicate.Despite the risk of social isolation-a problem occasionally seen in people who spend too much time at their computer terminal rather than relating to people in the real world-most of us have benefited greatly from e-mails and Internet chat programs like MSN Messenger.These incredibly useful and powerful tools of communication facilitate both contact with loved ones in faraway places and global trade.Moreover, the Internet has placed the entire world(and all of the information in it)at our fingertips.In earlier times, conducting research entailed long hours searching library shelves.Now, however, the same information can be accessed at the click of a button.Admittedly, not all of the information available on the Internet is reliable or helpful-there is a vast amount of material online that some would consider offensive or dangerous, ranging from pornography to instructions on how to make bombs.Nonetheless, I would contend that this free flow of information has generally been a very positive development.By way of conclusion, I once again reaffirm my position that the Internet has had a positive impact on modern life because of its influences on communication and the flow of information.TASK 2: 高分范文三-----Report
With divorce rates and family breakdowns increasing globally, it is generally accepted that families today are not close as they used to be.Discuss the causes of this problem and offer some possible solutions to it.Divorce and family breakdown were virtually unheard of just 100 years ago.Now, however, almost half of all marriages fail.This phenomenon is symptomatic of the growing distance between family members in modern society.In this essay, I intend to explore the sources of this problem along with some possible solutions to it.Chief among the causes of this problem is the modern lifestyle.Today’s parents have to work harder than those of previous generations to support their families.Traditionally, one parent assumed the role of breadwinner, while the other-typically the mother-acted as the homemaker.Recently, though, double income families have become the norm.Consequently, an increasing number of children now grow up in a parentless environment.Little wonder, then, that they feel alienated.Another contributing factor is the passive and solitary nature of many modern forms of entertainment.In order to solve this sense of alienation within families, I believe we must first address its root causes.Perhaps the most effective method of doing this would be for governments to offer financial incentives to parents who choose to remain at home and take care of their families.Admittedly, such incentives would probably not fully compensate couples for lost income;however, they would at least soften the hardship of living on a single income and provide an alternative for parents who would rather remain at home but are unable to do so because of financial constraints.One further measure would be to promote more interactive leisure activities in the community through public education campaigns.In conclusion, I believe that this is clearly a problem of such complexity that no solution is likely in the short term.However, I believe that the measures outlined above would constitute a good first step.Successful sports professionals can earn a great deal more money than people in other important professions.Some people think this is fully justified while other think it is unfair.Discuss both these views and give your opinion.As a result of constant media attention, sports professionals in my country have become stars and celebrities, and those at the top are paid huge salaries.Just like movie stars, they live extravagant lifestyles with huge houses and cars.Many people find their rewards unfair, especially when comparing these super salaries with those of top surgeons or research scientists, or even leading politicians who have the responsibility of governing the country.However, sports salaries are not determined by considering the contribution to society a person makes, or the level of responsibility he or she holds.Instead, they reflect the public popularity of sport in general and the level of public support that successful stars can generate.So the notion of “fairness” is not the issue.While those who feel that sports stars’ salaries are justified might argue that the number of professionals with real talent are very few, and the money is a recognition of the skills and dedication a person needs to be successful.Competition is constant and a player is tested every time they perform in their relatively short career.The pressure from the media is intense and there is little privacy out of the spotlight.So all of these factors may justify the huge earnings.Personally, I think that the amount of money such sports stars make is more justified than the huge earnings of movie stars, but at the same time, it indicates that our society places more value on sport than on more essential professionals and achievements.In many countries, the proportion of older people is steadily increasing.Does this trend have more positive or negative effects on society?
In more and more developed countries we see the following trends: incomes rise, people get married later and have fewer kids.The result is the demographics change and the population ages.While having more old people sounds like a good thing(as they tend to be kind and warm-hearted), it can have a serious impact on economies and societies.Consider, for example, that in order for a country’s GDP to grow it needs to produce more goods and services each year.With an aging population and more people retiring, fewer are left to work, creating an economic hole.The result is that such countries have to rely on immigration to fill the gap and this is a less-than-desirable solution.Consider also, that as more people reach their twilight years they will face increasing health problems and this puts huge pressure on health care and other social programs.In most countries the government pays for at least some of the costs of health care, not to mention things like pensions, all of which means a big bill someone has to pay for.To be fair, however, we should be careful not to direct our anger towards old people themselves.Old people can still make contributions to society, whether it means helping look after grandchildren, working part time or even doing voluntary work.On an individual level, old people can be a real treasure.To sum up, governments should recognize the challenges of an aging society and take the appropriate action.But in addition to fixing the short-term impact of an older society, they should also look at the bigger picture and do their best so that in the future we have a better age balance.
