雅思写作拿高分的五大要素,7+不在是梦!
雅思写作想要获得高分,一定要了解一些雅思写作高分技巧。今天新航道雅思补习班小编给大家带来的就是获得雅思大作文 7+ 的五大秘诀,希望能有更多的烤鸭们爱上作文并且写好作文。
POINT 1: clear structure 结构清晰
这一点非常重要,结构是考官对你的作文的印象。一个结构清晰的文章,最少需要四段:开头段、主体段 1、主体段 2 和结尾段。(注意:结尾段不是重复或者改述开头段)一个好的文章结构可以让人一眼就看到你的观点、理由,同时也体现出,文章的逻辑是清晰的。
POINT 2: Persuasive first person 有说服力的、人称
大作文一般分为五种类型:驳论文(同意或不同意)、讨论类(双边讨论)、利弊分析、问题解决和综合提问类。因此,我们的文章一定是要有一定的说服力的,而且必须有理有据,逻辑性要强。使用人称也是很重要的,每一段至少要在强调观点的时候,使用 "I, me, my",这才能表明你的观点是基于你的经历和知识得出的。
POINT 3: Clear thesis statement 论点明确
文章论点一般都会出现在开头段的结尾。文章论点就是明确的告诉读者你的观点是什么或者你支持哪个观点,以及你为什么支持这个观点?而且,必须至少有两个理由来支持你的论点,每一个主体段分别陈述一个理由,并给出相应的例证。
POINT 4: Complex and compound sentence 主从复合句、并列复合句
文章的语言要流畅,也就是说你所写出的句子不论是在语法上还是在结构上都要正确。而且,我们要在保证正确的情况下,尽量多使用复合句。主从复合句就是定语从句、状语从句、同位语从句、主语从句等,而并列复合句就是在观点与观点之间加 "and, but, or …" 另外,还有一点要提到的就是使用逻辑连词 "since, because, however, on the other hand, nevertheless" 等来体现句间的逻辑关系。
POINT 5: Answer the topic and controlling idea exactly 切题、点题
最后一点,也是最重要的就是:我们在开始写文章之前,一定要认真审题,确保弄清题目的意思以及中心思想是什么。有时候,我们会发现一个人的作文从结构到语法到用词都没有问题,但是却得了很低的分数,就是因为跑题了。所以,一定要认真审题,在了解的题目的意图之后,我们需要在脑海中形成一个框架,或者在草纸上列提纲,对题目从 "what, why, how" 这几个方面构思。最后,才是开始写作文,记住一定不要本末倒置。
单看秘诀可能比较抽象,下面我们就来看一道大作文的题目,后面会给到范文,让大家直观的感受一下一篇结构清晰、论点明确、语法正确、语言丰富……的作文到底长什么样。
Task 2
Write about the following topic:
Many people choose natural healing methods, such as acupuncture and massage therapy to recover from illness. Others prefer to use pharmaceutical drugs prescribed by their doctor for their aliments.
Discuss both views and give reasons for your answer, and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.
Write at least 250 words. You should spend no more than 40 minutes on this task.
开头段:
(Hook)Health has the greatest value for nearly any individual human.(Importance) A person must feel strong and healthy in both mind and body in order to feel content and contribute to society.(Definition) Unfortunately, sickness from bacteria, virus, and other teratogens results in symptoms like headaches, nausea, cramps and other negative affects which signal the person to find a cure. (Thesis) I believe that both natural and pharmaceutical treatment is effective in helping a patient heal.
主体段 1:
(Topic Sentence – Point 1) Natural healing methods are often more gentle in the healing process than chemical based drugs because they are easier to process for the human body. (Explanation) Since natural healing uses herbs, scents, or the body itself, the symptoms during recovery are less intense and there are no side effects. (Detailed Example) For example, I twisted my ankle playing soccer last month and I did not take painkillers. Instead, I used ice and a hot towel to decrease the pain. I believe a more natural approach was the right choice for this injury. (Connecting Sentence) However, for other injuries or sickness medical drugs can be better.
主体段 2:
(Topic Sentence – Point 2) Pharmaceutical medicines are the right choice when a sickness or injury is sudden and life-threatening. (Explanation) In many cases chemical drugs are more powerful and fast acting than natural healing options. In such cases, the obvious choice is to use pharmacy drugs when available. (Detailed Example) A good example is my younger brother Steve. Since Steve is highly allergic to bees, he had to use an epinephrine needle to save his life when he was stung on the beach last summer. (Concluding sentence) Thankfully for modern medicine, my brother can enjoy his life without much sacrifice.
结尾段:
(Points Restated) In conclusion, both natural and pharmaceutical interventions can benefit people’s health. (Arguments restated) Natural medicines can be more sympathetic to the body during the healing process; however, medical drugs’ fast and intense action can be the only choice. (Take-home-message) It is good that sick or injured people have the option of choosing the right healing approach for them.
