第一篇:托福寫(xiě)作的技巧總結(jié)
官方網(wǎng)站:
一、綜合寫(xiě)作
1.把握聽(tīng)力和閱讀的關(guān)系 托福寫(xiě)作的技巧總結(jié)
完全聽(tīng)不懂聽(tīng)力,怎么辦?首先,托福得聽(tīng)力者得天下,必須正視自己的聽(tīng)力水平,平常魔鬼式訓(xùn)練,提高實(shí)力,以免遭人鄙視。其次,可以稍稍投機(jī)一下。聽(tīng)力一般會(huì)去反駁閱讀,盡管聽(tīng)力細(xì)節(jié)我們無(wú)能為力,但聽(tīng)力的主題句我們是可以寫(xiě)出來(lái)的。比如,閱讀認(rèn)為四天工作制可以減少失業(yè)率:The reading passage states that the four-day workweek would reduce unemployment rates那么針對(duì)聽(tīng)力,我們可以寫(xiě):However, the listening argues that the four-day workweek would not reduce unemployment rates.直接加個(gè)not就可以了??偙嚷?tīng)不懂完全不寫(xiě)強(qiáng)。
2.字?jǐn)?shù)
嚴(yán)格講字?jǐn)?shù)控制在150-225之間,體現(xiàn)個(gè)人總結(jié)能力。不是The longer, the better.3.語(yǔ)法
簡(jiǎn)單句為主,切忌糾結(jié)同義詞替換,適當(dāng)保留,保證句子正確率。
二、獨(dú)立寫(xiě)作
1.字?jǐn)?shù)
盡量多寫(xiě),至少要達(dá)到300字。一般來(lái)說(shuō),400字以上得GOOD的可能性較大。當(dāng)然,如果細(xì)節(jié)已經(jīng)寫(xiě)全,不必一味重復(fù)湊字?jǐn)?shù)。曾有考生寫(xiě)600字,仍得fair。質(zhì)量總是大于數(shù)量的。
2.語(yǔ)法
把每句話寫(xiě)對(duì),哪怕只寫(xiě)簡(jiǎn)單句,也會(huì)得到一個(gè)意外的理想分?jǐn)?shù)。畢竟,語(yǔ)法是內(nèi)容傳輸?shù)闹匾ぞ?。沒(méi)有語(yǔ)法概念,句子不成句子,絕對(duì)是恐怖主義。
3.細(xì)節(jié)
越細(xì)越好,切勿假大空、籠統(tǒng)論述。要做到這一點(diǎn),最簡(jiǎn)單的方式就是舉例子??梢耘e自己或身邊家人、朋友、同學(xué)的例子,加上時(shí)間地點(diǎn),字?jǐn)?shù)很容易就上去了。不一定要舉大牛的事例。
第二篇:托福寫(xiě)作技巧
新托福綜合寫(xiě)作是一個(gè)比較新的題型,考生需要先閱讀一篇250詞左右的學(xué)術(shù)文章,然后文章隱去,此時(shí)考生則會(huì)聽(tīng)到一段時(shí)長(zhǎng)約1分半的聽(tīng)力材料。最后,考生需要根據(jù)閱讀和聽(tīng)力材料中給出的信息點(diǎn)完成一篇大約300字的作文。這就要求考生除了要具備一定的英文寫(xiě)作能力以外,還要擁有相應(yīng)的閱讀和聽(tīng)力技巧,能夠在考試規(guī)定的時(shí)間內(nèi)把握住閱讀和聽(tīng)力材料中所涉及到的重要信息點(diǎn),并將其用另一種表達(dá)方式展現(xiàn)出來(lái)。
一、閱讀技巧新托福綜合寫(xiě)作中的閱讀材料大多是節(jié)選自一些學(xué)術(shù)類文章,其結(jié)構(gòu)和內(nèi)容通常都有較好的邏輯性,對(duì)于這類風(fēng)格的文章,可采用 “結(jié)構(gòu)閱讀法”,快速找到核心的句子和關(guān)鍵信息。一般來(lái)說(shuō),文章的首句就會(huì)開(kāi)門見(jiàn)山的提出文章的主題,然后接下來(lái)則會(huì)圍繞這一主題進(jìn)行一些細(xì)節(jié)性的展開(kāi)和討論。同時(shí),大家也不要忽略文章的最后一段,因?yàn)槲恼伦詈笸矔?huì)有一些重要觀點(diǎn)和信息的展現(xiàn)。至于中間段落,大多數(shù)的學(xué)術(shù)性文章采取的無(wú)非是以主題句開(kāi)頭,后面進(jìn)行論證的結(jié)構(gòu),或是先進(jìn)行論證后歸納觀點(diǎn)的模式,大家應(yīng)該多注意表示因果、轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系的連詞,以便確定作者對(duì)該問(wèn)題的態(tài)度如何。
二、聽(tīng)力技巧雖然聽(tīng)力部分是新托福綜合寫(xiě)作中的一個(gè)難點(diǎn),但考生通過(guò)閱讀前面的文章,想必已經(jīng)對(duì)聽(tīng)力材料的主題有了一定的了解和把握,因此在聽(tīng)的過(guò)程中,應(yīng)該將重點(diǎn)放在兩個(gè)材料觀點(diǎn)的判斷比較上,要弄清楚兩者的觀點(diǎn)是相互支持還是相互對(duì)立,而其對(duì)觀點(diǎn)的表述又是用何種論證手段來(lái)證明的。同時(shí),鑒于聽(tīng)力材料的難度和長(zhǎng)度,且聽(tīng)力不像閱讀材料那樣在寫(xiě)作時(shí)還會(huì)復(fù)現(xiàn),所以建議大家在聽(tīng)的過(guò)程中做好筆記,把關(guān)鍵的句子和信息詞記下來(lái),為下面的改寫(xiě)做好準(zhǔn)備。
三、寫(xiě)作技巧在掌握了閱讀和聽(tīng)力材料給出的核心信息之后,我們?cè)撊绾螌⑦@些信息清晰準(zhǔn)確的重新整合成一篇結(jié)構(gòu)完整的文章呢? 首先,第一段可以分別將聽(tīng)力和閱讀材料中的主要觀點(diǎn)和內(nèi)容展現(xiàn)出來(lái),并點(diǎn)明兩者的觀點(diǎn)是否相互支持或是對(duì)立。其次,在第二段中,要分別從不同角度展開(kāi)論述聽(tīng)力和閱讀材料各自的分論點(diǎn),列舉出兩個(gè)材料觀點(diǎn)相互支持或?qū)α⒌淖C據(jù)。最后,第三段是一個(gè)總結(jié)段落,在這一段中要重新總結(jié)一下全文的主要意思,并再次重申兩份材料的核心內(nèi)容以及觀點(diǎn)上的異同,但注意不要加入自己的態(tài)度和觀點(diǎn)。另外,對(duì)于在綜合寫(xiě)作中常用的固定表達(dá),諸如“閱讀材料就某某問(wèn)題主要從某個(gè)角度展開(kāi)了論證”,“對(duì)于閱讀材料中提出的某個(gè)觀點(diǎn),在聽(tīng)力材料中利用反證的方法提出了反駁”,“對(duì)于閱讀材料中提出的某個(gè)觀點(diǎn),在聽(tīng)力材料中通過(guò)幾個(gè)方面的論證予以了支持”等等這些在寫(xiě)作過(guò)程中必定會(huì)用到的表述,大家應(yīng)該事先做好準(zhǔn)備,這樣在考試時(shí)就可以拿來(lái)直接用,而不必再匆忙思考了。
第三篇:如何提高托福寫(xiě)作技巧
小馬過(guò)河國(guó)際教育
摘要: 在 托福寫(xiě)作中說(shuō)沒(méi)有技巧是不可能的,但是所謂的技巧也只不過(guò)是輔助工具而已,并非大家認(rèn)為的是取得高分的關(guān)鍵。想要取得高分靠的還是你自己真正的實(shí)力,考生在報(bào)考的那一刻就該明白,天下沒(méi)有免費(fèi)的午餐,只有靠自己腳踏實(shí)地的取走,才能夠闖出自己的一片天來(lái)。下面小馬過(guò)河介紹的托福寫(xiě)作技巧相關(guān)信息,考生備考時(shí)可以適當(dāng)?shù)慕梃b。
1、對(duì)于詞匯量的要求較為嚴(yán)格
你積累的英語(yǔ)詞匯量的多少,影響著你在托??荚囍腥〉玫某煽?jī)。只有掌握足夠多的詞匯后,你才具備他警告閱讀能力的最低標(biāo)準(zhǔn)。
閱讀大量英語(yǔ)文章,增加自己的知識(shí)面
當(dāng)一個(gè)人知道的東西多了后,在面臨問(wèn)題時(shí),就會(huì)顯得更有自信,解決問(wèn)題也會(huì)有自己的路子。相信每一位考生在解答試題時(shí),如果閱讀到自己熟悉的文章后,解答試題時(shí)也會(huì)比較輕松和容易。答題的準(zhǔn)確率自然而然的也就會(huì)有所上升。
注意解題要領(lǐng),無(wú)需閱讀全篇文章
閱讀時(shí)要秉著做題去閱讀,而不是為了閱讀而去閱讀。閱讀時(shí)就會(huì)有著重點(diǎn),針對(duì)性強(qiáng),解答也比較容易,只要找到題干的大概范圍,很輕松就可以選出想要的選項(xiàng)了。也減少了大量的閱讀時(shí)間,為你的考試贏回不少時(shí)間,可以用這部分時(shí)間去解答其他較難的試題。

第四篇:托福寫(xiě)作技巧:常見(jiàn)問(wèn)題解析(推薦)
官方網(wǎng)站:
托福寫(xiě)作技巧:常見(jiàn)問(wèn)題解析
1、怎樣決定文章的模版結(jié)構(gòu)?
大家都習(xí)慣于托福作文5段式,我認(rèn)為這個(gè)觀點(diǎn)是有道理的,但不是絕對(duì)。為什么大多數(shù)情況下5段式最好?因?yàn)榻Y(jié)構(gòu)清晰。5個(gè)段落,開(kāi)頭引出話題,綜述觀點(diǎn);結(jié)尾收束加升華;中間3個(gè)邏輯支撐點(diǎn),可以支撐出一個(gè)相對(duì)比較豐滿和復(fù)雜的邏輯關(guān)系。但之所以不是絕對(duì),少數(shù)情況下,寫(xiě)的好的4段式議論文也可以得高分;有些題目甚至更適合4段式來(lái)寫(xiě)。但總體來(lái)說(shuō),如果時(shí)間夠,思維夠,5段式是比較穩(wěn)妥的拿高分的方式,即便句子簡(jiǎn)單,但邏輯夠完滿,分?jǐn)?shù)一樣不會(huì)低。
2、是不是一定要選擇一邊倒的論點(diǎn)呢?
記得某專家說(shuō)過(guò)只要有邏輯,均衡論一樣能拿高分。但一個(gè)現(xiàn)實(shí)的考慮是,考官在看你卷子的幾分鐘里未必有耐心從頭看到尾去找你的觀點(diǎn),因?yàn)榫庹摰挠^點(diǎn)通常會(huì)不那么明顯,特別是老外沒(méi)那么喜歡中國(guó)人的中庸之道,喜歡直白。那么為了降低誤判風(fēng)險(xiǎn),能寫(xiě)成觀點(diǎn)鮮明的作文還是鮮明點(diǎn)好,讓別人一眼看上去就知道你在說(shuō)什么,接下來(lái)就是看你怎么說(shuō)的問(wèn)題了,只要過(guò)“觀點(diǎn)鮮明”這一關(guān)就OK,為啥不選簡(jiǎn)單點(diǎn)兒的方式呢?
3、怎么樣選擇3個(gè)支撐段的論點(diǎn)呢?
我認(rèn)為比較好的邏輯是并列-遞進(jìn),遞進(jìn)-轉(zhuǎn)折這兩種,很符合我們的思維方式。拿這次大作文來(lái)說(shuō),我采取的就是遞進(jìn)-轉(zhuǎn)折模式,作文題是“孩子應(yīng)該做家務(wù),還是應(yīng)該只學(xué)習(xí)和玩”?我的觀點(diǎn)是應(yīng)該承擔(dān)家務(wù),分論點(diǎn)一是做家務(wù)能培養(yǎng)孩子的很多好習(xí)慣,分論點(diǎn)二是做家務(wù)能樹(shù)立孩子在家庭生活中的獨(dú)立地位和責(zé)任感,分論點(diǎn)三是在良好的監(jiān)督下做家務(wù)不會(huì)傷害孩子。分論點(diǎn)一到二,是一個(gè)遞進(jìn),一說(shuō)的是對(duì)孩子的好處,二說(shuō)的是不僅對(duì)孩子個(gè)人有好處,而且在整個(gè)家庭中,對(duì)孩子和家長(zhǎng)都有好處,這是觀點(diǎn)二在觀點(diǎn)一的拓展(當(dāng)然你也可以說(shuō)這是一個(gè)并列,但我認(rèn)為我在連接詞上的選擇讓這個(gè)關(guān)系變成了強(qiáng)化遞進(jìn));分論點(diǎn)二到三,是一個(gè)轉(zhuǎn)折,前面分析了優(yōu)點(diǎn),那么后面分析有人會(huì)說(shuō)這個(gè)也有缺點(diǎn),但我認(rèn)為缺點(diǎn)是完全可以避免的。于是這樣一個(gè)邏輯結(jié)構(gòu)就非常的完整,考官一看就知道我在說(shuō)什么,我為什么會(huì)支持孩子做家務(wù)。
4、怎么舉例子?
特別對(duì)于3段式的中間部分,各段的例子一定要多樣化;版上的牛人也說(shuō)過(guò),即使論證一個(gè)觀點(diǎn),例子也要多,要多多泛舉。對(duì)于上面的三個(gè)分論點(diǎn),我是從各個(gè)方面舉的很多例子:分論點(diǎn)一,我用的是
personalexample,舉了自己在家從小洗碗的例子,我學(xué)到了什么?要參與家庭勞動(dòng),理解父母的辛苦,因?yàn)樗⑼胛覐男×私饬诵l(wèi)生常識(shí)養(yǎng)成了很好的衛(wèi)生習(xí)慣。分論點(diǎn)二,我用的是情境概括,說(shuō)孩子參與了父母就會(huì)尊重他們,孩子可以參加家庭事務(wù)的討論,家庭關(guān)系更和諧,孩子更成熟獨(dú)立,不會(huì)選擇叛逆,父母更舒心。分論點(diǎn)三,我用的則是研究報(bào)告之類的,表明家務(wù)本身很安全,表明參與家務(wù)的孩子會(huì)更organized.然后說(shuō)父母的supervise可以降低危險(xiǎn),等等。這樣例子類型不同,內(nèi)容也就足夠豐富了。
5、怎么開(kāi)頭和結(jié)尾?
一句話,能簡(jiǎn)單則簡(jiǎn)單,但不要突兀。句子要簡(jiǎn)單,內(nèi)容要緊貼文章大意,不要每一篇都是“在當(dāng)今科技高速發(fā)達(dá)的社會(huì)里,人們?cè)跓崃矣懻撝?。。話題”,考官會(huì)審美疲勞的。但不要太突兀,要逐漸過(guò)
官方網(wǎng)站:
渡到你要說(shuō)的話題,英語(yǔ)本質(zhì)上是個(gè)很羅嗦很麻煩的語(yǔ)言,用簡(jiǎn)單的話把每個(gè)point之間的邏輯空缺都填滿,文章字?jǐn)?shù)自然就夠了。比如我這篇的開(kāi)頭,我的大意就是:我的童年很美好,有很多關(guān)于愛(ài)的回憶。相信這個(gè)世界上大多數(shù)人都認(rèn)為童年應(yīng)該是最美好的,像我的童年那樣。但是有些家長(zhǎng)太愛(ài)自己的孩子了,以至于竟然說(shuō)只有孩子遠(yuǎn)離家務(wù),只學(xué)習(xí)、只玩,才是足夠美好的。我卻認(rèn)為家務(wù)活該是童年美好回憶的一部分,因?yàn)樗??!?概述各分論點(diǎn))。我認(rèn)為我的開(kāi)頭是有點(diǎn)俗套的,但過(guò)渡的不突兀,特別是第一個(gè)分論點(diǎn)直接用我自己的經(jīng)歷照應(yīng)了這個(gè)開(kāi)頭,是很能在情感上打動(dòng)人的。
6、怎樣在規(guī)定時(shí)間內(nèi)寫(xiě)夠字?jǐn)?shù)?
我覺(jué)得我上面說(shuō)的方法已經(jīng)足夠讓你Develop一篇500字的作文了,我這次也確實(shí)寫(xiě)了500多字。首先要很快的定文章結(jié)構(gòu),5段式(不要考慮,不需要時(shí)間),3個(gè)分論段的觀點(diǎn)(先看能不能或者要不要駁反面觀點(diǎn),如果要,直接轉(zhuǎn)折-遞進(jìn),然后把常用point往里填,不超過(guò)1分鐘),然后想開(kāi)頭和各段首句(開(kāi)頭最多5min,3-4句足夠,不要太長(zhǎng)),各段展開(kāi)(各5min左右,3-4句,不超過(guò)6句),結(jié)尾3min,3句足夠。留夠時(shí)間檢查語(yǔ)法錯(cuò)誤和完善用詞,注意首段和各段首句一定不能有錯(cuò)。??ú缓脮r(shí)間的同學(xué)可以對(duì)開(kāi)頭,結(jié)尾,分論點(diǎn)展開(kāi)進(jìn)行小的練習(xí),卡時(shí)間5min寫(xiě)到100字左右??梢韵扔米詈?jiǎn)單的詞和句子,等你修改的時(shí)候想到好詞好句式再填進(jìn)去,晚上或者過(guò)幾天再來(lái)看看,把一些高級(jí)詞匯和句子慢慢用熟,考試時(shí)適當(dāng)用幾個(gè)就夠。字?jǐn)?shù)和完整性是高分的必要條件,實(shí)在不行大家買個(gè)鍵盤多練練打字吧。

三.185 題庫(kù)的處理
壓縮題庫(kù):TWE 寫(xiě)作的準(zhǔn)備是系統(tǒng)工程,考驗(yàn)資源整合能力。
1、相關(guān)題目歸類整理材料,整合論點(diǎn)。㈠86→89→90→91;
㈡6→52→141(因此52 選擇why 而不是how)→165evironment 例:
52.What change would make your hometown more appealing to people your age? Use specific reasons and examples to support your opinion.Among diverse aspects that I want to change about my hometown is its environment.→(why & how?此處選why)
①A good environment will make people happier.(100 words)②A nice environment will make people healthier.(100 words)
③A perfect environment will make people more productive.(100 words)
Topic Sentence:TS, the improvement of which will make people happier, healthier, and even moreproductive.(主題句應(yīng)當(dāng)盡量暗示文章未來(lái)結(jié)構(gòu))㈢36→70 例:
70.Some people think that the automobile has improved modern life.Others think that the automobile has caused serious problems.What is your opinion? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.主題句應(yīng)當(dāng)值得解釋、值得證明,故:
①汽車之類現(xiàn)代交通工具使市場(chǎng)上商品數(shù)量增多,方便流通; ②使商品價(jià)格降低;(運(yùn)輸成本降低,同種商品種類增加、競(jìng)爭(zhēng)加?。凵踔?,汽車交通工具對(duì)我國(guó)婦女地位獨(dú)立有很大幫助。最初想到:convenient & efficient,不值得解釋、證明; 進(jìn)一步問(wèn):so what?→人們活動(dòng)范圍增加,但仍不夠; 進(jìn)一步問(wèn):so what?→商品的活動(dòng)范圍增加→商品數(shù)量增加 因此,多想幾步即可得到有效結(jié)論。
㈣15→18→46→179→93→62→103,基于ETS 出題的人群普適性和文化普適性。① To be a good _____ , one should have the intelligence.happier, healthier, ②To be a good _____ , one should be humor.more productive ③To be a good _____ , one should be reliable.理由、例子、思路的反復(fù)運(yùn)用。
2、一些用母語(yǔ)都難寫(xiě)的題目的處理。
(1)最好不要同意的。往往是一些絕對(duì)的立場(chǎng),觀點(diǎn)要從絕對(duì)詞出發(fā)。選反對(duì)或中間模式。例: 37.Do you agree or disagree that progress is always good? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.本例選中間模式,組織采有力模式III。方法是修正部分絕對(duì)化的表達(dá)和詞匯。①It’s true that progress is usually good.如交通、溝通、書(shū)寫(xiě)工具。②However, it’s hardly true that progress is always good.③In fact, progress in itself is nether good or bad.技術(shù)的運(yùn)用在人不再技術(shù)本身。例:
53.Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? The most importantaspect of a job is the money a person earns.Use specific reasons and examples 不能同意。絕對(duì)詞:the most important。其他重要原因如stability。例:
54.Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? One should neverjudge a person by external appearances.Use specific reasons and details tosupport your answer.①確實(shí)有時(shí)會(huì)犯錯(cuò);
②但有時(shí)也確實(shí)可以根據(jù)外表得到信息,如判斷誠(chéng)信; ③甚至,有時(shí)必須通過(guò)外表判斷一個(gè)人。(2)最好同意的。
沒(méi)有絕對(duì)詞,而且往往還有想關(guān)限定詞。例:
27.Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? People shouldsometimes do things that they do not enjoy doing.Use specific reasons andexamples to support your answer.兩種分類:喜歡的/不喜歡的;有益成功的/無(wú)益成功的。需要做不喜歡但有益成功的。另外的例子還有63、42 題等。(3)只能反對(duì)的。
主要有第8、88、119、120 題。
分析方法:How come they have such an opinion? 即A→B 的因果關(guān)系是否過(guò)分簡(jiǎn)單化? ①A 不見(jiàn)得是B 的理由; ②A 不見(jiàn)得是B 的唯一理由; ② A 不見(jiàn)得是B 最重要的理由。例:
8.Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Television hasdestroyed communication among friends and family.Use specific reasons andexamples to support your opinion.It’s true that people attend to spend lots ① of time in watching television.②It’s also true that people spend less time in communication.③However, it’s hardly true that television destroyed people’s communication.④再寫(xiě)一個(gè)真正的理由,如工作壓力、經(jīng)濟(jì)壓力等: It’s working stress rather than television… 例:
88.Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Telephones and emailhave made communication between people less personal.Use specific reasonsand examples to support your opinion.Personal 有兩種理解:①親密;②個(gè)性化。只要前后理解一貫即可。
相比第8 題,可以忽略前3 點(diǎn)而擴(kuò)張第4 點(diǎn),如溝通成本的降低。例:
119.Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? People behavedifferently when they wear different clothes.Do you agree that different clothesinfluence the way people behave? Use specific examples to support your answer.①有時(shí)候會(huì)影響人們的行為。服裝影響心理;服裝影響他人對(duì)你的態(tài)度。②然而,服裝不必然影響人們行為。
③什么是最重要的理由,如價(jià)值觀(value system)。例:
120.Decisions can be made quickly, or they can be made after careful thought.Doyou agree or disagree with the following statement? The decisions that peoplemake quickly are always wrong.Use reasons and specific examples to supportyour opinion.①通常迅速作出的決定是錯(cuò)誤的;
②不是生活當(dāng)中每一個(gè)決定都是值得認(rèn)真思考的; ③甚至很多人就是擅長(zhǎng)短時(shí)間內(nèi)作出正確決定。(4)不能同意也不能反對(duì)的。It depends.例:
20.It is better for children to grow up in the countryside than in a big city.Do youagree or disagree? Use specific reasons and examples to develop your essay.It depends the child’s age.歲之前,最重要的是家庭內(nèi)部環(huán)境; 小學(xué)時(shí),鄉(xiāng)村更好一些; 高中時(shí),城里更好一些。
慎用I think…,in my opinion 等詞組: ①是廢話;②不要站在讀者對(duì)立面。只有當(dāng)你確知有不同觀點(diǎn)時(shí)才可使用,然后必須用細(xì)節(jié)支持,如本文。例:
32.Is it better to enjoy your money when you earn it or is it better to save yourmoney for some time in the future? Use specific reasons and examples to supportyouropinion.It depends the money you earn.2000/月,想存也impossible; 20000/月,基本花不完; 200000/月,花掉。例:
35.Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Attending a liveperformance(for example, a play, concert, or sporting event)is more enjoyablethan watching the same event on television.Use specific reasons and examples tosupport your opinion.要看是什么演出,不同情況作不同選擇。例:
49.Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Face-to-facecommunication is better than other types of communication, such as letters, email,or telephone calls.Use specific reasons and details to support your answer.要看與誰(shuí)溝通,老板、顧客、同事等均不同。五.TWE 考試的準(zhǔn)備

大家最熟悉的當(dāng)然是 “for example” 和 “for instance” 了。這兩個(gè)表達(dá) 法后面可以接名詞性成分或者句子。還可以說(shuō) “take … for example”,比 如: “Let's take an extreme case for example.…” 用來(lái)修飾 “example” 的形容詞很多,應(yīng)該熟練掌握:
characteristic;classic;prime;representative;typical | excellent;fine;good;impressive;magnificent;outstanding;perfect;superb;wonderful | fascinating;interesting;intriguing;notable;remarkable;striking;graphic;vivid;dramatic;extreme;spectacular;clear;obvious;simple;straightforward;blatant;flagrant;glaring | familiar;famous;well-known;notorious;common;rare;much-quoted;oft-quoted;often-quoted | illustrative;helpful;illuminating;instructive;useful;practical | concrete;hypothetical 這里面要是你有哪個(gè)詞不認(rèn)識(shí),那就一定要背下來(lái),然后寫(xiě)作文的時(shí)候用上,這樣你就用了一些―別人可能不用的詞匯‖,顯得稍微superior 了一點(diǎn)。能夠?qū)?“example” 發(fā)出的動(dòng)作有 : give;provide;contain;include;cite;draw;take(sth.a s);f i n d。而 “example” 能夠發(fā)出的動(dòng)作有 : abound;demonstrate;illustrate;show 等等。
也可以直接讓― 例子‖ 發(fā)出動(dòng)作,比如這樣的情況: The behavior ofMeerkats giving alarm calls clearly/well exemplifies the existence ofaltruism.有很多個(gè)例子的時(shí)候,用這樣的表達(dá)法: “A, B, C, and so on.” 或者 “A, B, C, and etc..”如果是口語(yǔ)表達(dá),比較常用的有“..., and something like that.”或者“...a n d s t u f f l ike that.” 有的時(shí)候,你可能在舉了很多個(gè)例子之后想說(shuō)―...就更不用提了?!?或 者― 更不消說(shuō)… … ‖,那用的表達(dá)法是:“ not to men t i o n...” 或者 “l(fā)et alone...”。
舉例子的時(shí)候,可以先舉幾個(gè)例子然后再概括一下;或者反過(guò)來(lái),先概括 之后列舉幾個(gè)實(shí)例。所使用的結(jié)構(gòu)分別是: “A such(B)as X, Y and Z” ; 或者 “X, Y, Z, and other A”。例如:
History, philosophy, fundamental mathematics, and other abstractsubjects can be learnt mainly from books.Some subjects, such abstract ones as history, philosophy, andfundamental mathematics, can be learnt mainly from books.有的時(shí)候,舉例子可能需要做出限定或者指定,那可以用 “as” 這個(gè)詞,例如:“ A narrow, confining room, as in a prison or convent, wouldmake anyone nuts.” 能夠用豐富的例子說(shuō)明問(wèn)題其實(shí)是一種能力,關(guān)鍵在于平時(shí)的刻意積累。如果你有能力舉出很多例子,那就需要這樣的句型: Examples abound in history/our daily life that… Examples /instances are countless/innumerable/numerous Stories abound of alcoho l i c s who flush their daily pill down the t o i l e t or “cheek” it, only to dispose of it later.Similar examples of “nuptial gifts” abound throughout the anima l world.History/Our daily life/This world abounds in examples which demonstrate… The list will go on.The list would be endless if we try to make an inventory of such examples.The litany of drug damage goes on and on.The list of profit-making, instinct-exploiting products is long.Self-image can be indicated by a tone of voice that is confident, pretentious, shy, aggressive, outgoing, or exuberant, to name only a few personality traits.如果你舉的例子非常經(jīng)典,又顯而易見(jiàn),不妨使用這個(gè)句型: Remember that...(相當(dāng)于― 記得… … 吧? ‖)
If we want to predict how aggressively a man will guard his wife, we need look no further than age.(… 想想 / 看看就可以了)Success requires a tenacious spirit and a drive to achieve.Nowhere is this more apparent in the entertainment business.Thousands of actors and actresses work tenaciously to have a career in the movies.But without beauty or talent, tenacity i s n ' t always rewarded, and only a few become stars.用最近發(fā)生的事情做例子:
An instance occurred recently in which…
如果舉的例子是― 軼事‖、― 傳說(shuō)‖、― 某個(gè)學(xué)說(shuō)‖ 之類的,那可以用這 樣的句型: Legend/Gossip/Rumor/Words/A theory/A saying has it that...;As story goes:...;That's how the story goes.;或者Story goes...(g o e s 后面接完整的句子。例如: Story Goes Viral Alex Jones appears on CNN, poll says three-quarters plus support Sheen.)有的時(shí)候要用一些想象出來(lái)的例子說(shuō)明問(wèn)題,那用這些詞開(kāi)頭: Consider;Imagine;Suppose;Say;Assume;或者在這些詞后面直接 加上一個(gè)賓語(yǔ)或者一個(gè)賓語(yǔ)從句,比如 “Imagine a person who is worrying about his future.” 或者 “Suppose a person is worrying about his future.” 這樣想象出來(lái)的 case,還可以用 sometimes , in some cases, in some specific cases 開(kāi)頭開(kāi)始講述。也可以用條件句型,“If…, ….” 或 者 “When…, ….” 以及,There are many cases in which…(有些情況 下… …); There are moments when …(有些時(shí)候… …);We all have met the cases in which…(我們都會(huì)遇到… … 的情況); We all have moments when…(有些時(shí)候我們都會(huì)… …)… …
