【雅思写作技巧】增加雅思作文表现力的5种方法
一、避免使用语意弱的“be”动词
1、把句中的表语转换为不同的修饰语。
这个技巧并不是那么容易掌握,但是确实是一个能够提高雅思写组成绩的非常实用的技巧。
例如:
Weak:The trees are bare. The grass is brown. The landscape seems drab.
Revision:The brown grass and bare trees form a drab landscape.(转换为前置定语)
Or:The landscape,bare and brown,begged for spring green. (转换为并列结构作后置定语)
2、将作表语用的形容词或名词变为行为动词。
例如:
1) Weak:The team members are good players.
Revision:The team members play well.
2) Weak:One worker's plan is the elimination of tardiness.
Revision:One worker's plan eliminates tardiness.
3、在以“here”或“there”开头的句子中,把“be”动词后的名词代词变成改写句的主语。
例如:
1) Weak:There is no opportunity for promotion.
Revision:No opportunity for promotion exists.
2) Weak:Here are the books you ordered.
Revision:The books you ordered have arrived.
二、多用语意具体的动词,保持句意简洁明了
这样的具体描写可以让文章看起来更具说服力,当然也就可以提高雅思写作成绩了。
例如:
1、Poor:My supervisor went past my desk.
Better:My supervisor sauntered (=walked slowly) past my desk.
2、Poor:She is a careful shopper.
Better:She compares prices and quality.
三、尽量运用主动语态
之所以要这样做,是因为很多人不明白什么时候该用主动,什么时候该用被动。用错了,当然也就谈不上提高雅思写作成绩了。
例如:
1、Weak:The organization has been supported by charity.
Better:Charity has supported the organization.
2、Weak:The biscuits were stacked on a plate.
Better:Mother stacked the biscuits on a plate.
四、防止使用语意冗长累赘的词语。
想要提高雅思写作成绩就得使写作的用词简单,生动。
例如:
1、Wordy:My little sister has a preference for chocolate milk.
Improved:My little sister prefers chocolate milk.
2、Wordy:We are in receipt of your letter and intend to follow your recommendations.
Improved:We have received your letter and intended to follow your recommendation.
3、Redundant:We had a serious crisis at school yesterday when our chemistry laboratory caught fire.
Improved:We had a crisis at school yesterday when our chemistry laboratory caught fire.
4、Redundant:My sister and I bought the same, identical dress in different stores.
Improved:My sister and I bought the same dress in different stores.
五、杜绝滥用陈旧词语或难懂的专业术语
这是语言考试,不是专业考试,提高雅思写作成绩的关键点在语言上,是文章的表现力上!
例如:
1、Weak:They will not agree to his proposals in any shape or form.
Improved:They will not agree to any of his proposals.
2、Weak:I need her financial input before I can guesstimate our expenditures next fall.
Improved:I need her financial figures before I can estimate our expenditures next fall.
