青岛雅思培训之如何有效备战雅思写作《青岛雅思培训文库》系列文章有青岛新航道学校教师原创,如有转载,请注明出处。
赵倩:青岛新航道雅思XX主讲,擅长XX对于很多的雅思烤鸭来说,写作是四个单项考试中最为令人头痛的一项。
由于雅思写作是典型的输出项,加之很多同学都对自己的词汇量及语法基本功并不自信,同时还有论述技巧较为贫乏的现象存在,写作也名副其实地成为如雅思官方所提醒大家的那样——雅思写作是听说读写中最难的一项,而其中的TASK 2则是所有雅思题型中最难得题型。
但是,很多同学并不知道,我们在雅思写作的备考过程中,依然存在不少误区和模糊之处,虽然英语写作能力是一种综合英语能力,考察同学们所掌握的语言知识,思维能力和知识面,但这并非说雅思写作高不可攀,技巧到位加灵活运用基本功,一样有王道可循。
要学好雅思写作,大家就必须要做到如下几点:(本文章来自于新航道《青岛雅思培训文库》最为重要的一点就是要做到多读多积累。
同学们平时应注意多进行一些好的文章或是雅思高分范文的精读。
雅思写作的整个过程就是我们所熟悉的语言的使用过程,或者说是脑中思想产生的过程,如果我们没有足够的知识储备,没有足够的语言输入,是难以维系的。
所以,建议同学们平时应该多读英文报刊杂志等。
另外一个比较直接的方式就是读一些雅思范文。
雅思书籍市面上有不少有关写作的书籍,其中大多都会附有范文,这些范文的特点是用词讲究,举行独特并且结构清晰,更有甚者会不时在文章中出现亮点,同学们可以对他们选择精读。
但是,所谓精读并不是背诵,对这些范文可不能生搬硬套。
为什么要精读呢?因为这些范文一般是作者精心挑选的,具有较大的参考价值。
对这些范文不能仅停留在理解上,而应该抱取"他人之石"的目的,把有用的表达方式,观点,框架和论证方式等为我所用。
不仅要把有用的"骨头"---常用的表达方式积累下来,还需把文章里面有用的"肉"-词汇按照写作的一些核心原则进行归类。
11月26日雅思全面预测本预测适用于亚太地区,包括中国大陆地区,港澳台地区,澳洲及日韩等。
纵观雅思考试在中国的这些年,我们会发现试题的些许变化。
如何能在雅思考试中取得比较理想的成绩?对于即将参加考试的同学,以下是无忧雅思网给广告烤鸭们一些备考建议。
雅思考试是考察英语综合实力的功能性语言测试。
对考生本身的水平要求很高。
英语水平高不见得能拿高分,要想拿高分必定要具备高的英语水平。
所以语言基础至关重要。
大家要通过平时的积累达到理想的水平,请大家一定要多多注意啦~~~11月26日考试展望听力:旧题出现的可能较大。
阅读:预测基本没用,但是也很大可能会有旧题出现,有时间也可以浏览一下往年阅读机经,了解相关的背景知识。
写作:预测可注意一下科技类、教育类、环境类以及社会类的相关话题。
口语:看预测及机经还是相当有用的。
有时间看一下雅思网站雅思口语类新闻。

雅思写作高分经验请务必注意这6个细节在雅思写作中,一些在我们看来无足轻重的小细节都会给考官留下不好的印象,这也就是为什么中国学生的作文成绩普遍不高的原因,那么有哪些细节最容易被学生忽视呢?下面是小编为您收集整理的请务必注意这6个细节,供大家参考!雅思写作高分经验--请务必注意这6个细节一、标点问题按照英语书写规定,标点应紧挨着它的附着意群进行标注,与另一个意群要以一个字符的空格隔开。
但很多中国学生习惯把标点当作是一个单词来对待,换句话说,就是在标点前后都留下空格,如:First , energy and other natural resources have become more abundant , not less so , since the book ‘ The Limits to Growth ’ was published by a group of scientists.标点像单词一样横插在句子中会给人以一种喧宾夺主的感觉,因而也会扣分。
二、句首字母的大小写问题在通常情况下,很多中国考生感觉只要是个句子就都把句首单词首字母大写了,但是在实际写作中情况如何呢?看例句:Some corpora attempt to cover the language as a whole;others are extremely selective.分号的作用是对关系非常紧密的句子进行分隔,所以后一个句子只是前一个的附属,并不是一个独立的新句子,所以首字母仍然要小写的。
这个现象同样适用于冒号、破折号、括号。
三、书写太随意每个人都有自己的书写习惯,但雅思考试的阅卷老师毕竟是外国人,如果我们能在书写上迎合外国人的习惯,就一定会给人以亲切的卷面印象。
书写不要过于密集与随意,以免影响阅卷老师的理解。
四、写作格式混乱英语书写格式主要有齐头式与缩进式两种,通常齐头式因为顶头书写且段与段之间空出一行,所以会给人以整洁的感觉,也比较推荐大家使用这种格式。
青岛雅思培训之雅思作文应注意的4点问题《青岛雅思培训文库》系列文章有青岛新航道学校教师原创,如有转载,请注明出处。
1、避免中国式思维的观点中国考生在写作时应注意一些西方文化观念的差异。
雅思考官一般为西方人,我们在写作时应尽量用他们可以接受的观点。
因为如果用中式思维来辩论,可能会给考官造成困扰。
比如说,中国学生普遍认为,在中学阶段学生的首要任务就是学习文化知识,其他的生活技能包括实际能力或人际关系能力等到大学时才需要学习;而西方人却认为学生在各年龄段都在不断学习和锻炼各种技能,包括人际能力和学习能力,而高中毕业生也应该已经具备就业能力了。
所以备考的考生应该多研读范文,以及报刊、杂志等,这样才能在面对考题时有更准确的反应。
(本文章来自于新航道《青岛雅思培训文库》)以下的是一些常见的例子:中国式观点西方普遍观点汽车的使用经济地位和现代化的象征破坏环境和不健康生活方式快餐代表经济发达的西方食品不健康的生活方式、垃圾食品父母教育老师和学校的责任,父母起辅助作用父母培养孩子性格(尤其是上小学之前)、老师传授知识家庭背景有钱的孩子娇生惯养,家庭条件不好的孩子懂事、爱学习富有的家庭可以提供更好的教育环境和教育机会,孩子成功的可能更大学习方法学习基础知识,记忆公式口诀和定理锻炼孩子自主学习能力,不鼓励大量的背诵公式等课外活动大学前以学习为重,课外活动不重要课外活动对身体健康和性格发展都有好处全球化经济影响大环境、文化和经济都有影响大学教育上了大学就应该学习好找工作的专业,兴趣是次要的;不接受大学教育没有前途大学让学生发展兴趣并且有助于学生人格发展,但不上大学依旧可以工作大学设施去大学主要是要从老师那里学习知识、跟同学锻炼交际能力大学的学习中自主学习占很重要地位,学校为学生提供图书馆、实验室等设施;教师对学生进行指导动物保护动物应该为人力服务,保护动物等于保护资源动物有生存的权利,是生态系统的重要组成部分政府政府应管理人的生活方式、进行宏观调控、利用资源;私企以营利为目的、违背公众利益政府无效率、企业效率高,应推行私有化2、文章中不要出现抒情的比喻首先,作为正式问题的雅思写作中,是不适宜出现过于抒情的比喻的。

2012雅思考试备考经验全攻略(献给速成的自学者)看别人的经验帖,站在前人的肩膀上,我们就能找着捷径,就可以摸索到事半功倍的方法,我总结了四个雅思考试相关经验的文档,推荐给大家!!!【巨实在】雅思考前冲刺10大建议1、如果参加了培训班,请尽量在培训结束后1-2个月内考试,这期间每天还需要复习大约6-8小时,听说读写同时并进,保证每天的各项刺激和输入量。
2、每天坚持背诵输入和默写输出100—200words的段落和句子(重要的大小作文范文,套句,阅读中的地道的写作好词句)保证足够的内存和拼写能力。
3、经常看听说读写最新资料和技巧,每次考试预测和考试回忆分析。
4、预测一般在考前一周出来,考前一周可参考预测复习。
5、阅读方面:阅读总的发展趋势是逐渐变难,要保证足够的量。
除了做剑桥4-8,有空可以上网浏览国际先驱导报,BBC等科技,经济,教育新闻,雅思考试阅读文章几乎都是这样的文章。
6、听力方面:精听剑桥4-8,在精听中复述模仿语音语调,利用大量的精听,听写和大声跟读朗读听力原文来迅速提高听力。
考前预测根据版本号看听力机经,泛听BBC。
7、写作方面:八股格式+有说服力的论证内容(正反,举例,假设,因果……)+丰富的语法和词汇(现在分词做状语,only倒装句,简单一重的定语从句,条件句,虚拟语气,同义词替换,如考前预测的作文TOPICS 要认真准备;社会,教育,文化艺术类的高频TOPICS准备。
每天100-200背诵输入和墨写(套句,阅读好词句段。
)选典型题目写至少10-15篇(剑桥作文题目或者今年考过的题目),形成自己的一套句式,写法。
每天背一篇重要的典型的小作文(G类是各种书信,A类是曲线,柱图,数据图,流程图等各类范文)和大作文,最好能复述或默写出来。
8、口语:勤奋练习最近半年考过的100-150topics。
每天找人讲练3-5TOPIS,看空间里的高频率TOPIC,考试回忆的TOPICS,预测的TOPICS,精听中复述。

在为雅思备考的烤鸭们,有很大一部分人认为雅思写作是最难搞定的,甚至不知道该如何进行雅思写作学习,天道小编为了帮助大家进行雅思写作学习,下面为大家分享一下雅思写作最容易忽视的关键,供大家参考。
下面就是天道留学小编为备考雅思的烤鸭们分享的雅思写作最易忽视的关键,希望对大家的雅思写作学习有所帮助。
1.重字数轻审题在一个小时的紧张时间限制下,很多学生害怕浪费时间而审题草草了事,而这对应对现如今出题越来越限制的雅思大作文显然是不合适。
举个例子,在最近的7月15日的考试中,大作文考题为有人认为成年人学习practical skills应该在学校学,有人认为应该在家自己学,讨论双方观点。
本身属于较为简单的一个教育类题,但是考后看学生和网上的回忆,很多同学,甚至于基础较好的学生都将它与另外一道题混淆。
Some people think that with the computer and Internet students can learn at home without going to school. But others believe students can learn more effectively with teachers at school. Discuss both views and give your own opinion。
(有些人认为学生可以用电脑和网络在家学,另一些人认为学生跟着老师在学校学更有效)那么在原题中,practical skills 就是题目的限定词,侃侃而谈广泛在家学和在学校学的同学就掉进了这个陷阱,审题不清而未自知。
2.过分迷信模板套用模板,本身并不是一个问题,甚至于在一定程度上,套用模板可以帮助基础较差的学生短期内完成雅思写作的任务。
但是当模板过于详细,或者不分题型共同套用同一个模板时,严重的错误就发生了。
第一个问题,模板过于详细。
很明显,在中国大陆的雅思考官对于写作模板都烂熟于心,简单的四段式和五段式已被认为有模板的痕迹而开始阻碍学生向高分冲刺,更不必说每段都详细写好只需套入话题那样的模板了,同学们在准备的过程中一定要避免这样的详细模板。
雅思写作需要特别注意的细节在经历了一段时间的雅思作文备考之后,考生要上战场了。
雅思小作文的几种类型与大作文的专题种类均已经熟练掌握,遣词造句也已然胸有成竹了,但是考场上挥毫泼墨之余的一些小问题都了解了吗?比如,答卷时注意的问题,如厕的时间等等,此种平日里练习时不会遇到的实战问题不可小觑。
下面是小编为您收集整理的雅思写作需要特别注意的细节,供大家参考!雅思写作需要特别注意的细节雅思写作部分的考试是雅思笔试部分的最后一环,在经历了前面的听力与阅读战斗之后,考生整体的英语思维达到了较好的状态,即使有些小疲倦也可以通过收答题卡和阅读卷子的空档调整一下情绪,这样在接下来的作文中应该会有个人良好的表现。
但是,大家还需要特别留意以下细节。
一、时间安排上要保证大作文的完结时间安排有两个层面,一是考场流程上,二是大小作文时间配置上。
首先,按照雅思考场的明文规定,发写作卷子之前是不允许去洗手间的,作文题目与作文纸全部发下来之后才可以去。
但是此时已经开始写作计时了,即考生去洗手间的时间是在占用自己的写作时间。
而且,作文考试结束5分钟之前不允许出教室去卫生间。
所以,考生早晨尽量少饮水,或进教室之前就解决好此类问题。
第二,拿到题目卷子之后,一定要遵照考官指示才可以打开试卷,否则会被记录考场违纪。
第三,关于大小作文时间分配,要先浏览题目后决定。
如果发觉小作文比较复杂难写,可以选择先写大作文;如果发觉大作文可能一时没有想法,可以先解决小作文。
但是,大作文在评分中占有的比例是高于小作文的,所以一定要保证大作文的完结。
大作文的写作时间至少在40分钟。
二、答卷细节——笔、纸、橡皮一样也不可忽视第一,雅思作文答题纸使用的一个核心原则就是保持卷面整洁与清晰。
雅思考试写有作文题目的那张卷子的空白处是可以做草稿纸用的,但是作文答题纸的空白处不可以随便写字、勾画,以防作弊。
雅思笔试的铅笔是可以置换笔芯的(俗称:下蛋笔),如果写作中途觉得笔芯太粗,想置换新一个的话,可以将新的笔芯在题目卷子上快速划一划,磨一磨,毕竟笔尖太细的话有点不好用。

雅思写作需关注的几个细节雅思写作考试满分是九分,想要拿到一个高分,对考生来说需要注意很多细节。
比如说我们在时间安排上以及字数上,或者是写作的格式上等等。
接下来小编为大家总结了雅思写作考试高分需要注意的几个细节,希望各位考生可以提前有所了解,这样我们在考试中才更有把握拿到高分。
雅思写作需关注的几个细节雅思写作细节一、时间安排雅思写作要求考生在一个小时之内完成一篇至少150个单词的说明文或信件(20分钟)和一篇至少250个单词的议论文(40分钟)。
考生需合理安排时间。
疑问:先写Task 1还是Task 2?专家:建议考生先简后难,Task 1 尽量控制在20分钟内完成,然后安心写 Task 2。
所以考生在考前一定要多练多写,掌握时间。
雅思写作细节二、字数雅思写作字数是有下限的,但没有上限,所以很多考生都有疑问,到底多少单词的文章可以拿到高分。
当然这没有绝对的限制,但据统计看来,大多数的高分小作文字数都在180左右,而大作文也在280左右。
疑问:字数不够怎么办?专家:就Task 1而言,说明该考生对图表的分析能力还有待提高,多练习看图审题构思。
如果Task 2字数不够,说明考生思路不开阔,论据无法扩展,考生需增加阅读量,多看和雅思写作话题相近的文章和精读雅思范文来掌握论据扩展方法。
雅思写作细节三、标题与格式雅思的大小作文都不需要题目。
雅思写作有两种格式:一是空行不空格式,即文章每段开头顶格写,段与段之间空一行;二是空格不空行,即除首段顶格外,文章每段开头空五个字符,段与段之间不空行。
雅思写作细节四、机经雅思考试是非常系统而且专业的语言水平测试,它有着庞大的题库,有些题目也会重复出现,所以考生可以通过了解以往考题,即机经充分把握写作题型、话题等,为考试做好充分准备。
疑问:要不要背范文?专家:背范文对提高考生的英语语言水平有很大帮助,但考生要明确背范文的目的是吸收其中的精华,如观点、语言、结构等,而不是在考试时遇到相同题目全盘照搬,否则被考官发现,将影响最后的得分。
雅思写作内容相关介绍这类青岛雅思考生在看到题目时,最初的感觉是脑袋中一片空白。
雅思作文题材广泛,包括科技、教育、健康、环保、犯罪、文化传统、时尚、体育运动、动物保护等。
而且由于文化差异以及学习工作的缘故,日常生活中考生极少接触到这类话题,更不用说对它有什么想法了。
雅思写作内容盲点1击破:四多原则多看范文;多关注时事,观察生活;多与人交流;多记录自己的想法。
比较极端的做法是花三天三夜沉浸在范文书当中,分领域熟悉雅思考题及其观点。
当感觉自己脑袋中涌现出无数ideas时,关上书,写出自己能够想出来的各个领域的观点,如果某个领域发生短路,翻开书重新阅读,直至能够写出来为止。
雅思写作内容盲点2:千言万语这类青岛雅思考生往往见多识广,看到话题时感到倚马千言。
可是由于词汇量和逻辑方面有所欠缺。
往往面临“满腹的心里话不知怎么说”的尴尬。
雅思写作内容盲点2击破:词以类记原则此类青岛雅思培训考生要分领域积累雅思写作词汇,如在写肥胖问题时,考生需要积累(obese, overweight, coronary heart disease, stroke, heredity, inheritance, junk food, carnivorous, excessive drinking and smoking, couch potato, diabetes, a balanced diet, vegetarian等。
)雅思写作内容盲点3:标新立异这类考生认为论点或论据越新颖越好,力求与众不同。
雅思写作内容盲点3击破:自圆其说原则青岛雅思培训考试毕竟是语言能力测试,词汇,语法和句式才是测试重点。
况且,考官阅卷数载,见多识广,你的观点很有可能已经无法构成他的兴奋点,所以我们讲究论点论据言之有理,能够自圆其说即可。
雅思写作内容盲点4:真情流露这类考生和“千言万语”型考生神似,唯一的不同便是他们英文表达畅通无阻,写作时有“黄河之水,延绵不绝”之势。
2012年1-4月雅思考试大作文真题及解析4月28日: It is no longer necessary that animals should be slaughtered and made into either human foodstuffs or non-foodstuffs, such as fur and medicine. Do you agree or disagree?题目翻译:我们没有必要非得屠宰动物,并将其制成食品供人食用,或生产成皮制衣物/药品以满足人类需求。
你是否同意这种观点?题目解析:同意类题型,题干本身句型简单易于理解,且主题老生常谈,题目难度较低。
4月21日: Some people prefer planning for the future while others argue that we should focus on the present. What is your opinion? Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your knowledge or experience.题目翻译:有人认为应该计划将来,也有人认为重点就是现在。
你同意哪一种想法?请说出你的道理,并却从个人的知识或经验中,举出例子来证明。
题目解析:讨论类题型,题干表述简单,但主题较为陌生。
尽管实质上是一道the present and the future的题目,但因为focus在plan 上,对文章的构思构成了一定的挑战。
同时,要求印证自己的事例,将主旨和个人事例有效结合也有一定难度。
4月14日: A tendencythat the news reported in the media focuses on problems and emergencies rather than the positive developments is harmful to both the individual and our society. (To what extent) do you agree or disagree?题目翻译:媒体新闻报道更多倾向于社会问题和突发的紧急情况,而忽略了社会积极发展的一面,这对于社会及个人都产生了不良影响。
2012 年雅思考情分析之各科考情概述在过去的2012年里,我国的出国留学市场依然热力不减,这就导致了雅思考试这一国际化的英语水平考试的热度持续升温。
下面,让我们来回顾一下2012年雅思考试在听,说,读,写方面有哪些分化和特点,并依据这些特点给大家提供2013年备考的方向。
各科考情概述听力2012听力考试的较大分化就是考察的侧重点。
整体来讲,全年考试中选择、配对和地图配对题目增多,填词型题目的比例较以往有较为明显的下降,且填空题出题更加灵活。
具体来说,部分section 1 出现了选择、地图配对等题目,但多数依旧是填空。
section 1 选择、配对题的增加让很多学生刚开始考试的时候还没有进入状态,没能及时反应过来,导致错过了答案;section 2 和section 3 的主流题型目前是选择、配对和地图配对,填空明显减少;而section 4 依旧保持填空题为主的趋势。
就词汇而言,新增的拼写词汇难度不大,绝大部分词汇不在以往考察的词汇范围内,但也出现了部分新增词汇是易拼写错误的词汇,如translator, air pump, distance, 以及学生不太熟悉的词汇,如postage, plastic software 等。
但值得注意的是,学生除了要背诵拼写词汇,还需要在平常备考听力的时候增加识读词汇的背诵来应对选择、配对类题目。
口语对于雅思口语来说,考试换题的周期性还是比较明显的,每一年的一月,五月以及九月是我们的考试换题季,因此在这三个月份的第一场,甚至第二场考试中题库会有更新,幅度通常为:剔除20%左右的就题目,同时增加20%-30%的新题目,但总体话题数量不会有太大变动。
Part 1 部分30-39 个话题,Part 2 部分60-65 个话题左右。
每一季经过换题,题库在接下来的两个月都会相对稳定。
约有30%的题目更新,例如:Children, Friends, Cell Phones, Driving, Noise, Weekends 等。

雅思写作最容易被忽略的五大细节青岛新航道高锟深谙雅思考试的烤鸭组们肯定都见识过雅思写作评分的威力,往往听力和阅读能考到7分甚至更高的同学在写作上很有可能仅得到5分。
其实中国大陆A类考生在听说读写四项的平均分中,写作一直是最低的,仅5.13分。
究竟是什么因素导致了雅思的写作成绩如此低呢,实际上,雅思写作是英语语言应用水平的最高体现,它不仅涉及到单词、拼写、句型,甚至还涉及到英美文化,说白了,雅思写作考的就是英语语言水平的最高级应用。
而越是在这最高级应用里,下面的几个细节却越是最容易被忽略的:一、格式:往往我们会受以前作文缩进式的影响,先空两格再写内容。
实际上,标准的雅思作文格式应当采用齐头式:即不用空格,直接写内容,但每段和每段应当空一行。
同学们可以留意国外的论文或书信,几乎所有正式的文体全部都采用齐头式。
应用齐头式,不仅文章看起来美观大方,而且还方便考官和自己统计字数。
二、首字母缩写并不是所有的首字母缩写都能用。
判断的标准就是我们写出的缩写是否是国际通用的,比如KFC, IQ, CEO等等都没问题,但CET这样的缩写就肯定不能使用,因为CET只是我们中国大学英语考试的缩写,而考官却不一定不知道。
三、数字十以下的数字应用英语单词表示,不能用阿拉伯数字;十以上的可以用数字形式。
四、称呼雅思写作中,一二三人称是否都能用呢,比如说WE, I, YOU, ME, 有没有不能用的?有!我们写作时应尽量避免的一个称呼就是YOU,想想看,一篇写个考官看的文章,如果满篇都是你怎样你怎样时,考官会是什么样的心情?五、字数首次考试的同学们一定要注意,大小作文的字数要求是150和250字以上!而不是左右!字数不够时最严重的一点是考官会一个字一个字的把你文章的字数数出来,然后按缺少的数字扣分,想想让一个威武的考官进行这样简单的加减运算会给他的评分带来多大的主观因素!上述几点看似都是细节,可正如我们用手捧一捧水一样,如果这漏一点那漏一点,最后肯定会所剩无几!细节决定成败,祝同学们在上面细节的帮助下,雅思写作威武过关!。

青岛雅思,新托福专业培训机构-圣约翰(澳洲)语言专修学校青岛雅思培训学校六分通过率最高学校-澳洲圣约翰雅思新托福///posted by Anna青岛雅思培训 2012年中国考生雅思写作六大关注青岛雅思即便我们平时写的作文非常好,为什么一到雅思考场就写不好了呢?这其中有很多原因,比如,考场压力,审题不清以及写作基本功等。
现在我们以一道雅思真题为例来做具体分析。
3月6日雅思考试作文真题还原:Task 1 两个饼图 Pie chartThe charts give information about the time spent on different types of website by male students and female students。
(1st pie chart (boys): 40% entertainment, 20% shopping, 19% sports, 12% academic studies, 1% news, 8% others )(2nd pie chart (girls): 35% entertainment, 11% shopping, 8% sports, 20% academic studies, 8% news, 18% others )Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features and make comparisons where relevant。
Task 2 社会类 (人口老龄化问题)A survey shows that in many countries people are living longer. But increased life expectancy has many implications for the aging individuals and for society as a whole.What are the possible effects of longer living for individuals and society ?老隋点评:作文题目总的来说算是中规中矩,学生并没有无从下笔的感觉,基本上都是人人有话说,即使这样,中国考生的作文分数仍然偏低。
原因大概有以下几点:原因一:轻视小作文。
由于小作文占作文分数的三分之一,大作文占三分之二(part2 carries more weight than part one),很多学生都高度重视大作文,却忽视了小作文的重要性。
有些同学平时几乎很少练习小作文(即图表作文),在考场上20分钟内往往写不完,结果挤占了大作文的写作时间。
还有一些同学考试时先写大作文后写小作文,因为他们认为大作文更重要,并且在构思上面花费大量时间,所以大作文写超时了。
最后,这些同学其实是被小作文拖了后腿。
请看:方案A:小作文5分,大作文6分,写作成绩=5.5方案B: 小作文6分,大作文5分,写作成绩=5.5两个方案殊途同归,显然方案B比较容易实现。
对于那些写作分数目标是5.5的同学,应该重点提高小作文。
再看:方案C:小作文6.5分,大作文5.5分,写作成绩=6方案D: 小作文5.5分,大作文6分,写作成绩=6这两个是6分方案,也是殊途同归。
考生可以根据自己的实际情况来选择适合自己的方案,然后进行突破。
结论:小作文和大作文同样重要,小作文相当于一篇雅思阅读文章后面的13-14个题目的份量,请千万不要忽视了小作文。
原因二:过于依赖作文模板。
研究写作的老师会发现:照搬模板的同学写作分数基本上都在5-5.5分之间,从没上过6分。
也有一些学生分数上6的,他们的共同特点是没用模板,自己写,主要是用了各种从句。
那么,到底该不该使用作文模板呢?其实,如果目标只是5-5.5分的作文的话,用模板是可以轻松实现的。
但是,如果希望分数在6 分以上的话,最好远离模板,自己原创。
当然话又说回来,对于那些语法和词汇基础薄弱的同学来说,让他们自己写是很困难的。
如果想短期内(例如3周)达到作文5.5的话,还是建议使用模板。
模板的作用主要体现在两个方面:第一、有助于语义连贯。
这对于写作评分标准中的CC(Coherence and Cohesion)有立竿见影的作用。
然而,很多用了模板的学生普遍的问题是模板中需要自己填写的部分写得很一般,有大量的语病或各种各样的语法错误,以致于模板与原创之间形成强烈反差。
也就是我们常说的“金玉其外,败絮其中”。
第二、有助于凑字数。
250字的大作文光模板就可以达到100多字,这就是为什么很多作文感觉语言流畅但言之无物的原因,显得很空洞。
在作文答题卡下面有一个小项叫做memorised,指的是学生在考试中背诵默写将会被扣分。
如果全文默写范文,甚至有可能被记为0分。
结论:用模板分数基本上维持在5-5.5,如果想突破6分必须自己写。
套句不是不可以用,但最好不要超过总篇幅的20%。
其实,即使用模板,也应该提倡个性化的模板。
原因三:未写完或偏题。
一些学生由于考试的时候没有控制好时间,作文没有写完就交卷了。
这主要体现在两个方面:第一、字数明显不够。
第二、没有完整的结尾段。
还有一些学生写着写着,一不小心就偏题,甚至跑题。
一般来说,未写完或偏题,分数在4-4.5,跑题分数一般都在4分以下。
这是因为在评分标准中,TR(Task Response任务的完成情况)没有做好,即没有充分的回应题目。
另外,照搬模板或背诵范文容易导致跑题偏题。
结论:要想取得保底的5分,首先要确保按时写完,而且不能偏题或跑题。
原因四:思路窄,论证不够充分。
思路窄是很多学生写作时的常见问题。
由于现在雅思考生呈现出低龄化现象,这部分考生人生阅历浅,对各种社会问题缺乏认识。
在考试中,他们普遍面临对问题本身没有太多了解,甚至用中文都感觉无话可说。
另一方面,有些同学光有分论点,却没有能够对论点进行有效的论证。
这些都导致其作文分数不高。
下面我举两个例子:09.05.21 People think that a hundred years ago, the human race was steadily improving in every area of life. Nowadays, there is no certainty of this case. In which areas do you think we have made important progress nowadays? In which areas do you think we still need to make progress?09.07.23 Many people are optimistic about the 21st century and see it as an opportunity to make positive changes to the world. To what extent do you agree or disagree with their optimism? What changes would you like to see in the new century?考生在应对这样的话题时,由于对客观世界所发生的真实事件的认知缺失,根本无法下手作文。
78%的学员在试后承认自己是“乱写的,自己也不知道在写什么”。
结论:同学们在备考雅思写作的时候,应该注意拓宽思路,多关注新闻和各类社会问题,多积累论点和论据。
原因五:语法错误和拼写错误太多。
5分作文和6分作文之间的差别很大程度上体现在语法错误上。
从官方的评分细则可以看出,5分作文是只会使用简单句型,语法错误较多。
6分作文句式有所变化,能够灵活使用各种从句,存在一些语法错误,但不影响整体的理解。
很难想像一篇到处都是语法错误和拼写错误的文章,其作者的语言能力能够高到哪去。
中国人学得最多的是语法,然而最差的依然是语法。
常见的语法错误包括:时态错误、主谓不一致、谓语缺失、从句使用错误、介词搭配不当等等。
一篇本来能拿5.5 的作文,可能因为语法错误太多而失分,最后只能拿个5分或4.5分。
雅思写作中常用到的语法:小作文:一般现在时、一般过去时、比较级和最高级、定语从句、被动语态等。
大作文:从句(其中6分作文必备定语从句、状语从句、宾语从句;7分作文除了这三种从句,还需具备主语从句、表语从句,甚至同位语从句)、非谓语动词(如动名词作主语、分词作后置定语、不定式作目的状语等)、插入语、同位语等等。
事实上,在考官范文中,几乎没有发现一例倒装句。
另外,在雅思作文中也很少用到虚拟语气。
考官范文没有一处引用名言和编造统计数据,这些都很值得我们老师反思目前我国的雅思写作教学。
结论:注意加强语法,在写作中多用从句和非谓语动词,注意句式的变化,积累各种句型和短语。
原因六:词汇匮乏或堆砌大词生词。
俗话说:“巧妇难为无米之炊。
”在写作中,很多学生词汇匮乏,缺乏同义替换的能力。
另一个极端是,有个别学生词汇量比较大,有意识的在文章中堆砌一些大词生词,有些词用词不当,甚至考官都很少用,属于生僻词汇。
这些也会最终导致作文分数不高。
在写作评分标准的四项中,有一项叫做LR(Lexical Resource词汇资源)。
它更侧重于词汇的accuracy和variety,而不是大词生词。
如果大家仔细看看剑桥雅思真题集,你会发现其实考官没有用很大的词或很生僻的词。
相反,他们用的词都是很常用,但是大部分都用得很准确。
词汇方面,我们提倡的是用词准确,并且适当注意同义替换,这点在雅思阅读和听力中都得到了充分的展示。
由此可见,雅思官方希望在我们的作文当中见到更多的同义替换,包括同义词近义词替换、词性转换、句式变换等等,而不是重复用同一个词。
结论:词汇贵精不贵多,学生应该分写作话题积累相关词汇和句型,力求做到用词准确,避免重复。
中国学生雅思写作分数一直偏低是有原因的,只有当我们克服了以上提到的六个方面的问题,我们的写作分数才有可能出现质的飞跃。
此外,据说7分或以上的作文是要被寄回英国当地审查的,也许这也是为什么雅思考官在批改作文时如此谨慎的原因之一吧。
我国雅思考生的作文分数呈正态分布,中间多,两头少。
主要集中在5-5.5分之间,7分作文可以说是凤毛麟角。
我觉得考生多研习剑桥4-7后面的考官范文,从中必定能够得到很多启示。
