4. 語法的多樣性和準(zhǔn)確性
句子的好壞主要取決于句子結(jié)構(gòu)的準(zhǔn)確性和豐富性,句子的長度和復(fù)雜性以及用語的邏輯性和正式性。
句子結(jié)構(gòu)的準(zhǔn)確性涉及主謂一致、句子平衡性等問題,比如:The main reason for this use of informal languages are various and complicated. 這個句子不細(xì)心的同學(xué)很難發(fā)現(xiàn)它有問題,因為主語太長有時會忽視真正的主語其實是the main reason,是個單數(shù)形式,所以are 應(yīng)該改為is. 再比如:In my opinion, use mobile phones to send messages is more convenient than write letters. 這是個很典型的錯誤,很多同學(xué)在寫作的過程當(dāng)中會誤把動詞或動詞短語當(dāng)主語用而造成句子結(jié)構(gòu)的錯誤,而只有動詞的非謂語形式才能在句中充當(dāng)主語或賓語,因此,此句正確的表達應(yīng)該是:In my opinion, using mobile phones to send messages is more convenient than writing letters.
句子結(jié)構(gòu)的豐富性也是考官給分的一個亮點,好的段落應(yīng)該由不同的句式組成,而不應(yīng)該是千篇一律的句子結(jié)構(gòu)。例如:I have many hobbies. For example, I like movies, I like playing basketball and football, and I like singing and dancing. 很明顯,該句完全由“I + do”結(jié)構(gòu)組成且like使用的頻率過高,我們不妨做如下修改:I have many hobbies. Movies, for example, are my favorite and I am also fond of playing basketball and football. Sometimes when staying with my friends, I’d prefer singing and dancing rather than any other way of amusement.
句子的長度和難度是很多考生追求的目標(biāo),其實并不需要每個句子都寫得很長很復(fù)雜,相反,如果整篇文章都是長難句,考官也會覺得很厭煩,就像一個人喜歡吃紅燒肉,如果你天天給他吃紅燒肉,他也會覺得很膩味一樣,因此最好的方法就是長短句結(jié)合。
短句變長:即善用連接詞and, but, or, yet, so等。例如:Living off campus is exciting. Living off campus is more independent. I prefer the convenience of living on campus. 不難看出,這是兩種對立的觀點,因此我們可以將其變?yōu)椋篖iving off campus is exciting and more independent, but I prefer the convenience of living on campus.
還有比較重要的一點是不容忽視的,即用語的正式性和嚴(yán)謹(jǐn)性。實際上,在漢語中也有很多這樣的例子,比如我們說:“這里人真多啊!”這就是一個典型的口語化的表達方式,而如果用“人山人!、“車水馬龍”、“摩肩接踵”等詞來形容人多就是寫作語言了。我們不妨看幾個非正式用語的句子:Parents have to get kids food and other stuff. 此句中的kids和stuff就是兩個非正式用語,如變成:Parents have to provide children with food and other necessities.就正式了。再如:People always say competitive sports are totally cool. 此句中的cool以及這個句式都是屬于比較口語化的,應(yīng)該變?yōu)椋篒t is always said that competitive sports benefit us in several important ways.
專家為大家分析了雅思考試的四個標(biāo)準(zhǔn),考生們一定要仔細(xì)琢磨,只要靜下心來好好領(lǐng)悟評分標(biāo)準(zhǔn),再通過一定量的寫作來提升自己全方位的能力,就可以獲得滿意的成績。寫作不存在僥幸,也沒有捷徑,必須要下足功夫,否則想要提高寫作分?jǐn)?shù)是很困難的。
