7分写作&口语:给考官留下神志正常而不是精分的印象
!
老师指出:语言是思想的载体,可悲的是,我们在语言笨拙的同时,思想也很贫瘠。更糟糕的是,连逻辑也很混乱。这其实不是我们的错,由于传统和体制的限制,我们从不被鼓励去立思考和自主研究,而学校教育、特别是文科教育中,哲学缺失,语文、历史和思想课都是以结论性灌输为主,而不是提供完整的推导过程和从不同角度全面展示问题。
实际上,这一先天缺陷是和西方的教育内容背道而驰的,不仅限制了我们雅思的分数、而且压低了我们出后论文写作的表现。大多数已过4的学生,写作和口语上,语言是可以达到6分要求的,但实际只能拿到5;过6的,应该可以拿到6.5,但实际一般只有5.5;过专8的,7-7.5的实力,却只能拿到6。问题就在于,你说的都是废话,不一样的考生却像复读机一样重复毫无营养、杂乱无章的东西,你还抱怨考官口语昏昏欲睡、写作压分,他们不这么做才是咄咄怪事。
比如:
Nowadays the way people interact with eachother has changed because of technology.
In what ways technology affected the typesof relationships people make? Has this become a positive or negativedevelopment?
In past two decades, an increasing numberof youngsters indulged themselves in playing those intelligent devices, PS4,ipad for example, rather than cultivating personal hobbies or exercising withfriends outside. Living and enjoying in a virtual world would also isolatethemselves from communicating with their parents and friends which could alsotrigger un-expectable conflicts between them.
So, we cannot deny the fact that technologyis still under rapid development, and the added benefits that it brings us areconsiderable. Meanwhile, we should not ignore and must pay more attention on totackling those problems it comes with.
这就是典型的用7分语言写出来5.5分效果的例子,我们一句句看
In past two decades, anincreasing number of youngsters indulged themselves in playing thoseintelligent devices, PS4, ipad for example, rather than cultivating personalhobbies or exercising with friends outside.
这句跑题了,要求论述科技对人际关系的影响,这句和人际交往无关,其实改几个字就回来了:
In past two decades, an increasing numberof youngsters indulged themselves in online games by intelligent devices, PS4or ipad, to enjoy the virtual parternership with othersrather than cultivating personal social skills with friends in real life.
Living and enjoying in avirtual world would also isolate themselves from communicating with theirparents and friends which could also trigger un-expectable conflicts betweenthem.
这句是个套话似的结论,没有推导过程,毫无说服力。要么去掉、要么重写。写作和口语的要点在于提供细节和由来,这样才有说服力。
So, we cannot deny the factthat technology is still under rapid development, and the added benefits thatit brings us are considerable. Meanwhile, we should not ignore and must paymore attention on to tackling those problems it comes with.
这句是无比正确的废话,结尾段也不好这么敷衍的,至少应该准确的说明什么样的好处、如何弥补坏处吧:
Based on the abovediscussion, the bright side is more attractive for most people, which is thereason why Wechat owns over one billion users in China. As for the oppositeside, the rational time ditribution between online and offline social lifecalls for self-control abilities and the supervision from parents. Also, it maybe helpful if the community and the school could organize more social activitiesfor youngsters.
我建议,咱们协作遵循论点 – 论据 – 例子或深入解释这样的顺序,比如:
这个例子里面的语法拿分点我用红色加粗注明,连接拿分点我用下划线注明,连同逻辑顺序一起,这些都是可以事先设计好、可以在考场上模仿的,拿分就靠这些了。更多的备选项和既往十年带答案机经请参照我的新书《雅思写作捷径》。
年轻人适合在*中担任要职吗?
Firstly, the inexperience in young politicians is a stubborn obstacle for making right decisions after deep consideration. It could be explained as so important are restraining impulsivity and being responsible forgoverning that abundant life experience has become the basic requirement for politicians. Otherwise, no matter how perfect other conditions are, younghigh official would still introduce many immature or dangerous policies, such as the nuclear weapon project in North Korea.
先,年轻政治的缺乏经验顽固阻碍了在深思熟虑后做出正确的决定。这可以被解释为,抑制冲动和有责任感是对于执政是如此的至关重要,以至于丰富的人生经验已经成为对于政治的基本要求。否则的话,无论其它的条件有多好,年轻的高官们仍然会推出很多不成熟甚至是危险的政策,比如北韩的核武计划。
Secondly, the whole country may suffer from the dictatorship applied bythe young leaders. The reason is thatyoung people tend to abuse power, because they are short of patience to resistthe temptation to resolving issues with power rather than reaching agreements. Indeed, it is a proof that the young leaders of KhmerRouge lost their way and spelled disaster and bloodbath to the country afterseizing power at their 30s.
整个都可能因为年轻导人施行裁而受损。其原因是,执掌权力的年轻人容易滥用权力,因为他们缺乏耐心去抵御用权力而不是达成协议来解决问题的诱惑。实际上,以下案例就是个明证,红色高棉年轻的导人在30多岁掌权后迷失自我并给他们的带来了屠杀和灾难。
