寫作分數提不了?教你打破雅思寫作5.5分魔咒
教學近七年,一直教授雅思托福SAT等寫作,也多次親自參加考試來積累考試經驗,針對這三種寫作,同學們公認雅思寫作最難得分或提分。
我見過很多英語很棒的同學,考了N次雅思,聽力和閱讀達到8分,但寫作一直都悲催的5.5或者甚至5分,由于本科和研究生院都要求雅思成績單項不低于6,很多人都因寫作分數不夠而不得不花大量金錢讀語言課程。
所以跟大家分享一些雅思寫作備考方法,希望幫助烤鴨們走出5.5分魔咒,獲得高分。雅思作文涉及到很多方面,下面是大家問我的最多的兩個問題:
1. 關于模板:
雅思寫作能否用模板得高分?學員們的成績說明,模板可保證5或5.5分甚至偶爾6分,但絕對會制約你得6.5分及以上的高分。什么是模板?大家對下面這種中國人慣用的開頭段方式不會陌生吧: With the development of technology, …plays an important role in our lifeand arouses heated debate. Some people think…, others think…, I think….這就是最惡俗的制約我們得6分以上分數的開頭段模板。我們對比一下考官在劍8里寫的滿分開頭段:
題目1:
Some people think that parents should teach children how to be good members of society.Others, however, believe that school is the place to learn this. Discuss both these views and giveyour own opinion.
考官范文開頭段
A child’s education has never been about learning information and basic skills only. It hasalways included teaching the next generation how to be good members of society. Therefore,this cannot be the responsibility of the parents only.
顯然,考官沒使用以上我提到的世間最惡俗的寫法。
我們再來看一篇考官在劍5里面寫的滿分作文的開頭段。
題目2:
Some people prefer to spend their lives doing the same things and avoiding change. Others,however, think that change is always a good thing. Discuss both views and give your ownopinion.
考官范文開頭段
Over the last half century the pace of change in the life of human beings has increasedbeyond our wildest expectations. This has been driven by technological and scientificbreakthroughs that are changing the whole way we view the world on an almost daily basis. Thismeans that change is not always a personal option, but an inescapable fact of life, and we needto constantly adapt to keep pace with it.
縱觀劍3-8上考官給出的滿分范文,考官開頭段的風格永遠都是針對題目中一兩個關鍵詞進行背景拓展,甚至加上自己的一些和題目相關的一些發揮,簡練(一般3句左右)而直逼核心內容,不會說一大堆沒有營養的空話套話。
我對于模板的態度一直很鮮明:一切以實戰需要為準,不說空話。每個考生的英語功底都是不同的,英語基礎好,有實力原創的同學考前不需要準備固定的套路,而應該把時間用在研究真題和范文上;
而對于確實沒有能力原創太多的同學來說(有些死孩紙完全靠自己實力寫出來的文章真的是令人心碎惆悵),如果不事先準備好邏輯框架,在考試中真就有可能寫不出來,字數不夠或者邏輯顛三倒四。所以模板因人而異,少用精用而不濫用。
