第三篇:朗閣雅思培訓-雅思寫作高分句型
雅思寫作高分句型
朗閣海外考試研究中心堯億叢
在雅思寫作中,考生如果想得到高分,除了需要依靠較出彩的思想、高分單詞以及常見關聯(lián)詞外,還需要運用高分句型。在這些句型中,除了常見的從句(定語從句、狀語從句以及名詞性從句)之外,強調(diào)形式和倒裝形式更是拿分的關鍵點。以下,朗閣海外考試研究中心的專家將對此類句型進行總結(jié)。
一、強調(diào)形式
強調(diào)形式總共分成五大類:
1.對動詞進行強調(diào)(dodoesdid + V)
Sitting in front of the screen the eye and physical posture of children.Some people that the overuse of chemicals(e.g.Fertilizers and
2.雙重否定可表強調(diào)
We cannot deny that receiving the distance education is drawbacks.3.比較狀語可表強調(diào) to develop the children’s ability of learning on their own.to deal with their academic life those who do not have the gap year spent in working or travelling.4.what引導的主從可表強調(diào)
is the failure of the government’s policies.5.強調(diào)句型可表強調(diào), 所強調(diào)的可以是單詞、短語,也可以是從句,但必須保證其結(jié)構(gòu)完整。被強調(diào)的成分可以是主語、表語、賓語、同位語、狀語等,但不能是定語或謂語。
should shoulder the responsibility to protect the endangered species.(對主語強調(diào))member.(對主語強調(diào))
the young unemployed would have the opportunity to get jobs again.(對狀語強調(diào))(對賓語進行強調(diào))
注:強調(diào)句中的時態(tài)要根據(jù)原句的時態(tài)而定。即原句為過去某種時態(tài),則強調(diào)句中的be就用過去時;原句為現(xiàn)在的某種時態(tài),強調(diào)句中就用be的現(xiàn)在時態(tài)。有時還可以用It might be/must have been/can’t be…that等句式。
例句:
they spend longer time in travelling.young people.強調(diào)句的判斷:強調(diào)句型可以通過“還原法”來進行判斷,若刪除強調(diào)句型結(jié)構(gòu)后,句子能還原為一個完整的句子,就是強調(diào)句。強調(diào)句可以看作是用固定的表達-It is/was…that(which, who, whom, where, when)…, 將句子的某個成分(除了謂語)進行重點強調(diào)。但是,去掉這個固定的句型部分,句子本身并無任何變化。
二、倒裝形式
倒裝共分兩類:全部倒裝和部分倒裝。全部倒裝是指將全部謂語動詞都放在主語之前。部分倒裝是指將謂語的一部分如助動詞,系動詞或情態(tài)動詞放在主語之前。如果句中的謂語沒有助動詞或情態(tài)動詞,則需添加助動詞do, does或did, 并將其放在主語之前。
A.全部倒裝:把全部謂語放在主語前。
1.there be句型(特殊的全部倒裝句型)
There be…是一種較為常見的句子結(jié)構(gòu),通常用于表達“某地有某人或某物”,在使用此句型結(jié)構(gòu)時,應注意下列問題:
1)主謂一致
例句:
There is little opportunity for children to stay at home until the age of 7 because their parents are both working.There are many reasons why we should not slaughter animals for their fur or leather.2)be動詞可以是任何時間狀態(tài)
例句:
There have been many government which invest a large sum of money in researching the space.There has been a discussion over whether children should be sent to school at a young age.3)在There be結(jié)構(gòu)中除了運用動詞be之外,還可以用seem, appear, happen, exist等。在這種句型中,謂語的單復數(shù)形式根據(jù)靠近謂語的主語而定。
例句:
There seemed to be no permanent solution to the disappearance of minority languages and cultures.2.there here now then放在句首時,句子進行全部倒裝。
to realize the seriousness of this problem and take actions immediately.3.方位狀語開頭時,句子進行全部倒裝。
On the internet are provided all kinds of entertainment activities.In books are embalmed the greatest thoughts of all ages.4.主語與表語互換位置(當主語過長而表語過短時,可以把主語與表語互換位置從而構(gòu)成全部倒裝)Important is that the government raises people’s awareness of the environmental protection.5.伴隨狀語開頭(With或Along with放在句首時,句子應該全部倒裝)With globalization have come many problems.B.部分倒裝:只將情態(tài)動詞、助動詞或系動詞放在主語前
1.only +單詞、詞組、狀語從句位于句首,句子進行部分倒裝。
2.以否定意義狀語開頭,句子進行部分倒裝。
3.neither nor開頭,句子進行部分倒裝。
The financial incentive is not the only factor in encouraging employees, neither Economic success is not the only factor in achieving happiness, neither is social status.4.so開頭,句子進行部分倒裝。
5.讓步狀語從句由though或as引導時可用倒裝,將表語放在句子最前面。as the mainstream form of education.6.so that引導的結(jié)果狀語從句可用倒裝。it.總之,如果考生能將這些原則運用到位,那么在雅思考試中寫作成績出高分是指日可待的。但是句型的熟悉還是在于勤奮的練習,所以朗閣海外考試研究中心還是建議眾多的考生們勤加練習,在考試的時候才可以信手拈來。

The assertion that the first pathways were the trails made by animals has not been universally accepted;in many cases animals do not follow constant paths.Others believe that some roads originated from following animal trails.The Icknield Way is given as an example of this type of road origination, where man and animal both selected the same natural line.By about 10,000 BC, rough roads/pathways were used by human travelers.The world's oldest known paved road was laid in Egypt some time between 2600 and 2200 BC.Stone-paved streets are found in the city of Ur in the Middle East dating back to 4000 BC.Corduroy roads(log roads)are found dating to 4000 BC in Glastonbury, England.The Sweet Track, a timber track causeway in England, is one of the oldest engineered roads discovered and the oldest timber track way discovered in Northern Europe.Built in winter 3807 BC or spring 3806 BC, tree-ring dating(Dendrochronology)enabled very precise dating.It was claimed to be the oldest road in the world until the 2009 discovery of a 6,000-year-old track way in Plumstead, London.Brick-paved streets were used in India as early as 3000 BC In 500 BC, Darius I the Great started an extensive road system for Persia(Iran), including the Royal Road, which was one of the finest highways of its time.The road remained in use after Roman times.In ancient times, transport by river was far easier and faster than transport by road, especially considering the cost of road construction and the difference in carrying capacity between carts and river barges.A hybrid of road transport and ship transport beginning in about 1740 is the horse-drawn boat in which the horse follows a cleared path along the river bank.朗閣海外考試研究中心
Research Academy for Foreign Language Examinations From about 312 BC, the Roman Empire built straightstrong stone Roman roads throughout Europe and North Africa, in support of its military campaigns.At its peak the Roman Empire was connected by 29 major roads moving out from Rome and covering 78,000 kilometersor 52,964 Roman miles of paved roads.In the 8th century AD, many roads were built throughout the Arab Empire.The most sophisticated roadswere those in Baghdad, which were paved with tar.Tar was derived from petroleum, accessed from oil fields in the region, through the chemical process of destructive distillation.The Highways Act 1555 in Britain transferred responsibility for maintaining roads from government tolocal parishes.This resulted in a poor and variable state of roads.To remedy this, the first of the “Turnpike trusts” was established around 1706, to build good roads and collect tolls from passing vehicles.Eventually there were approximately 1,100 trusts in Britain and some 36,800 km(22,870 miles)of engineered roads.The Rebecca Riots in Carmarthenshire and Rhayader from 1839 to 1844 contributed to a Royal Commission that led to the demise of the system in 1844, which coincided with the development of the UK railway system.朗閣名師題型難度分析

對于是非無判斷題有兩點需要提醒:
第一,是非無判斷題理論上是具有順序性的題型,因此考生在回到文 章中掃描定位詞時可以按照題目順序來依次定位。但是是非無判斷題 的特殊性在于其中有“無”的情況,所以如果考生過于機械的遵循順序定 朗閣海外考試研究中心
Research Academy for Foreign Language Examinations 位的規(guī)律,對于答案是NOT GIVEN的題目,有可能會出現(xiàn)需要讀完 更多內(nèi)容才能判斷出來的情況。所以建議考生在搜索某題的定位詞時,可以同時關注后面題目的定位詞是否出現(xiàn)。在下一題定位詞已經(jīng)出現(xiàn) 而本題定位詞或者其同義替換的詞仍未找到的情況下,則本題可以判 斷為NOT GIVEN。
第二,考生在判斷題目中的定位詞時,不必只找唯一的一個詞。如果 題目中出現(xiàn)了不止一個詞可以用于作為定位詞,建議考生可以全部找 出來,一起定位。因為這樣能夠準確定位到題目出現(xiàn)的位置。劍橋雅思推薦原文 練習

建議考生在做雅思人名觀點配對題時不需要看完全篇再去做題,而是 可以采用定位法去有的放矢的解決,這樣既快捷高效地完成了閱讀任 務,也不再對閱讀中的搭配題感到棘手和害怕了。今天要和考生們一 起探討的是如何處理有關人名觀點配對中,人名多次出現(xiàn)的試題。
人名觀點配對一般考察的是某個人的言論(statement)、觀點
(opinion)、評論(comment)、發(fā)現(xiàn)(findings or discoveries)。這樣,一般這個題的答案在文中就只有兩個答案區(qū): 1.人名邊上的引號里面的內(nèi)容;
2.人名+ think /say /claim /argue /believe /report /find /discover /insist /admit /report...+ that從句。
人名在文中一般以以下方式出現(xiàn): 1.全稱(full name), 如:Brian Waldron 2.名(first name), 不常見
3.姓(surname), 如:Professor Smith 4.He/she(在同一段話中,該人再次出現(xiàn)時,用指示代詞替代)因此,建議考生去文中找人名時,應該將上述四種情況均考慮進去。再者,應該謹記在心的是:如果一個人名在一段話中出現(xiàn)N次,也只 能算一次。如果一個人名在N段話中出現(xiàn),就算N次。
該題的答案遍布于全文。因此應該從文章的開頭往后依次尋找人 名。

Research Academy for Foreign Language Examinations 該題貌似是全篇文章的考察,其實考察的就是這些人所說的幾句 話。故應先從文中找人名,再去找答案。
標題配對題(List of headings)是雅思閱讀中的一種重要題型,要求 給段落找小標題。它一般位于文章之前,由兩部分組成:一部分是選 項,另一部分是段落編號,要求給各個段落找到與它對應的選項,即 表達了該段中心思想的選項,有時還會舉一個例子。當然,例子中的 選項是不會作為答案的。解題思路:
1.將例子所對應的選項及段落標號劃去 2.劃出選項中的關鍵詞及概念性名詞
3.瀏覽文章,抓住各段的主題句和核心詞(尤其是反復出現(xiàn)的核心 詞),重點關注段落首句、第二句與末句
4.與段落主題句同義或包含段落核心詞的選項為正確答案 劍橋雅思推薦原文 練習
