雅思寫作總會有一些誤區,想要寫出好文章,要注意避開一些誤區。下面是小編爲您收集整理的雅思寫作文章要避開這幾個誤區,供大家參考!

雅思寫作文章要避開這幾個誤區

  雅思寫作文章 避開這幾個誤區

一、避免空洞的單詞和詞組

1.一些空洞的單詞或詞組根本不能爲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“都顯得多餘。完全可以去掉。改爲:

Young adults of today live more satisfying lives than their parents。

2.有些空洞和繁瑣的表達方式可以進行替換

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”就是一個很典型的繁瑣的表達方式的例子,可以替換,簡化爲下面的表達方式:

Because our grandparents were obligated to help their parents, they did not have the options that young people have now。

二、避免重複

1. 儘量避免重複使用同樣的詞彙。或者有的時候雖然詞彙沒有重複,但意思卻有重複。這時候可以做一些簡化的工作。

例如下面這個例子:The farm my grandfather grew up on was large in size。

large對一個farm來說就是size方面的large,所以in size可以去掉,改爲:

The farm my grandfather grew up on was large。

更簡潔的表達方式爲:

My grandfather grew up on a large farm。

2.有時一個詞組可以用一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就可以改爲repeatedly,顯得更爲簡潔:

My grandfather has said repeatedly that he had to work on his parents' farm。

三、選擇最恰當的語法結構

選擇合適的語法結構可以使句子意思的表達更爲精確和簡練。雖然語法的多樣性也很重要,但選擇最恰當的語法結構仍然是更爲重要的考慮因素。以下原則是在考慮選擇何種語法結構時可以參考的原則:

1.一個句子的主語和謂語動詞 應該能夠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。

從意思上來分析,上面這句話需要表達的重要的概念是“grandfather's not being able to study”,而在表達這個概念時,原句用的主語是situation,謂語動詞是was,不能強調需要表達的重點概念,可以改爲下面這句話:

My grandfather couldn't study engineering because his father needed help on the farm。

2. 避免頻繁使用“there be”結構

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。

可以改爲:

My grandfather worked hard. He had to milk 25 cows on the farm every day。

更簡潔的句式爲:

My grandfather worked hard milking 25 cows daily。

3. 把從句改爲短語或單詞

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。

簡潔的表達方式爲:

The dairy farm was located in a remote area, 100 kilometers to the nearest university。

4. 僅在需要強調賓語而不是主語的時候,才使用被動語態

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。

本句不夠簡潔的原因是本句的重心應該是“忙碌的家庭-my grandfather's family”,而使用了被動語態後,彷佛重心變成了cows和hay。下面的表達方式是主動語態,相對來說更簡潔一些:

In the fall, my grandfather's family not only milked the cow but also mowed and stacked the hay。

5. 用更爲精確的一個動詞 來代替動詞短語

例如:My grandfather didn't have time to stand around doing nothing with his school friends。

Stand around doing nothing其實可以用一個動詞來表達,即loiter:

My grandfather didn't have time to loiter with his school friends。

6. 有時兩句話的信息經過組合,完全可以用一句話來簡練地表達

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。

兩句話的信息可以合併爲下面這句更爲簡潔的句子:

Profits from the farm were sometimes too small to meet operational expenses, let alone pay for a university degree。

  雅思寫作高分語法結構分析

1. 狀語前置

狀語前置就是把一個修飾動詞的狀語結構,如介詞短語,分詞形式或動詞不定式引導的短語放到句首。雅思寫作中狀語前置是很拿分的句式,不過很多考生都沒意識到這一點。

請看下面從劍橋提供的範文中節選的句子:

1) Like self-awareness,this is also very difficult to achieve,but I think these are the two factors that may be the most important for achieving happiness.

2) Throughout the century,the largest quantity of water was used for agricultural purposes.

3) With a population of 176 million,the figures for Brazil indicate how high agricultural water consumption can be in some countries.

使用狀語前置的最大優點是讓單調的句子有了跳躍的節奏感。考官一天看上百張考卷,看到這樣的句子也會心情愉悅。

注意:插入語

此種語法結構是可以理解爲是狀語前置的另一種變體,它將狀語結構提到了主句的主語和謂語之間。插入語也是相對地道的英語表達方法。請看以下幾例:

1) Universities,when it is functioning well,should offer both theoretical knowledge as well as professional training.

2) So overall,I believe that,attending school from a young age is good for most children.

語的功能和狀語前置基本相似,都能使句子更有跳躍感和地道。

2. 倒裝句

我們先來看以下幾個例子:

1) The parents should spend time on their children,they should also communicate with them.

2) We can never lose sight of the significance of education.

以上兩句話都沒有任何錯誤,但是讀來非常平淡,沒有任何特色,如果我們用倒裝句,出來的效果就完全不一樣了。

1) Not only should parents spend time on their children,they are also advised to interact with them.

2) On no account / by no means / in no way can we lose sight of the significance of education.

當然在平時教學和備課的過程中我們還是要不斷積累各式各樣的倒裝句句式進行替換,靈活運用。

3. 強調句

It is… that… / It is… who…正是…導致了

以下是考官寫的一句話:

1. It is the interaction of the two that shapes a person‘s personality and dictates how that personality develops.

強調句是考生比較難把握的一種句型,容易和it引導的形式主語相混淆,但其實我們只要找到強調句的一個特點,即去掉It is… that… / It is… who…仍然是一個完整的句子。

通過以上三種句式結構的介紹,考生就能輕鬆給簡單句穿上外衣進行包裝了,這樣表達同樣的意思用不同的句式結構,出來的效果完全不一樣。在筆者平時在朗閣課堂的教學中,這幾個句型幫助學生突破瞭如何寫好句子的瓶頸。下面我們來看一句話分別用不同的三種表達方法,明顯改變了效果。

中文: 二十世紀末科技的繁榮,人們開始廣泛使用電腦。

1) witness 句型

The late 20th century witnessed the prosperity in science and technology, thereby giving rise to the wide application of computers.

2) With結構狀語前置

With the prosperity in science and technology in the late 20th century, the computers were widely applied.

3) 倒裝句

So flourishing was the science and technology in the late 20th century that computers were widely applied in various fronts.

4) 強調句型

It was the prosperity in science and technology in the late 20th century that gave rise to the wide application of computers.
