很多初次接觸考試的學(xué)生總是非常擔(dān)心寫作的綜合寫作部分,也就是我們說的小作文。他們常提出這樣的疑問:“怎么考得這么變態(tài)???讀了又聽再寫!”其實(shí)大家完全不必為此如此焦慮,等看完下面的文章,讀完下面的四大必殺技,我相信你一定會豁然開朗!
首先,summarize,也就是概括閱讀和聽力文章的主要內(nèi)容和各三個分論點(diǎn)。這其實(shí)就是Introduction要寫的內(nèi)容,掌握了概括,第一段就不成問題咯!
其次,paraphrase,也就是改寫。掌握好了改寫句子,你寫起文章來將會感覺到如魚得水,游刃有余。改寫其實(shí)主要有下面的兩種方法:
第一,使用不同的詞匯
a. 使用同義詞。比如以下的一些寫作高頻詞匯的同義詞,出現(xiàn)的尤為頻繁,你一定要掌握。
important → essential / crucial / vital / significant;
think → claim / believe / consider / deem / figure out;
nowadays → currently / at present / now / recently / in recent years / these days
b. 改變詞性。這是一種稍微難一些的方法,要求你的語法基礎(chǔ)非常好,你才能靈活自如的運(yùn)用。
n. → v.
Eg:When we look at a comparison between A and B…
→ When we compare A and B…
adj. → n.
Eg:There are a variety of solutions to the problem.
→ There are various solutions to the problem.
c. 使用不同的承接詞。承接詞在文章當(dāng)中的使用相當(dāng)頻繁,不僅是段落和段落的連接,還包括句子和句子的連接。背住一些常用的承接詞比你的改寫將會有極大的作用。
because of → due to / owing to / because / as / since / for;
but → however / nevertheless / nonetheless / whereas;
so → therefore / hence / thus / consequently
d. 形容詞的逆向表達(dá)。在某些形容詞上進(jìn)行修改,會達(dá)到非比尋常的效果。
Eg:not as easy as… → more difficult than…;
not uncommon → common;
the cheapest → the least expensive
第二,使用不同的句型
a. 改變詞序。這是非常簡單的一種方法,完全不用動腦筋就可以進(jìn)行改寫。常常將句子中的狀語(包括狀語從句)換位置。
Eg:For many years, people have believed…
→ People believed… for many years.
b. 主動語態(tài)和被動語態(tài)的互相替換。
Eg:Trained scientists performed this research.
→ This research was performed by trained scientists.
c. 使用“there be”句型。可以將一個簡單句,馬上變成一個加入定語從句或者分詞的復(fù)雜句。
Eg:Several computer programs can be used to solve this problem.
→ There are several computer programs that can be used to solve this problem.或There are several computer programs used to solve this problem.
d. 定語從句、分詞和插入語的互相替換。
Eg:Study…, conducted by sociologists in 2004, shows that…
→ Study…, which was conducted by sociologists in 2004, shows that…
Eg:This…, which is one of the most powerful… in the world, has…
→This…, one of the most powerful… in the world, has…
