雅思小作文里的大智慧：活用簡(jiǎn)單詞拿高分
其實(shí)人們對(duì)于“妖怪”形象的認(rèn)識(shí)與我們對(duì)于“雅思圖表小作文”的正確認(rèn)識(shí)有著異曲同工之處。日本的妖怪文化經(jīng)歷了從夸張(即極善極惡)到樸實(shí)(即 善惡并存)的一種趨向和諧的發(fā)展，妖怪被賦予了自然的靈性，從而演變?yōu)榱艘环N無(wú)法替代的文化;而我們的小作文同樣要做到表達(dá)的和諧才會(huì)使我們?cè)趯W(xué)習(xí)中一點(diǎn)一滴的積累，變成考官眼中那一個(gè)個(gè)生靈活現(xiàn)的“小妖怪”。
現(xiàn)在，雅思考試中的小作文的素材也是越發(fā)“樸實(shí)”了，我們可能覺(jué)得題目中不像之前會(huì)有一些自己不認(rèn)得的生僻單詞;那么對(duì)于詞匯的要求是不是降低了?答案當(dāng)時(shí)是“No”.而是我們的詞匯需要“靈性”了。
我們一起來(lái)看看評(píng)分標(biāo)準(zhǔn)中9分檔對(duì)于詞匯的要求——use a wide range of vocabulary with very natural and sophisticated control of lexical features; rare minor errors occur only as “slips”. “natural and sophisticated control of lexical resources of lexical features”即“自然使用并且掌握詞匯特征”，詞匯的高分不是來(lái)源于“又難又專(zhuān)的高大上”而是 “妖怪一般的靈性”。這也就是為什么有的時(shí)候你的全文用了7，8種變化多端的“占據(jù)”相關(guān)表達(dá)、或者用了更多的“上升、下降”但是分?jǐn)?shù)卻不見(jiàn)本質(zhì)性改變的根本原因。下面讓我們通過(guò)劍橋雅思7 Test4的一篇考官范文來(lái)發(fā)現(xiàn)其中的奧秘吧。
The charts compare the sources of electricity in Australia and France in the years 1980 and 2000. Between these years electricity production almost doubled, rising from 100 units to 170 in Australia, and from 90 to 180 units in France.
妖怪1：double，triple這一類(lèi)型的詞匯體現(xiàn)出了更為形象的數(shù)值本身的變化，比單純的“上升、下降更為準(zhǔn)確”，同時(shí)又比“上升，下降+數(shù)值”更加簡(jiǎn)潔。準(zhǔn)確而且簡(jiǎn)潔的表達(dá)完全可以稱(chēng)的上是 “natural and sophisticated control of lexical resources of lexical features”的境界
In 1980 Australia used coal as the main electricity source (50 units) and the remainder was produced from natural gas, hydro power (each producing 20 units) and oil (which produced only 10 units). By 2000, coal had become the fuel for more than 75% of electricity produced and only hydro continued to be another significant source supplying approximately 20%.
妖怪2： produce， supply這些簡(jiǎn)單的動(dòng)詞是與“能量”對(duì)應(yīng)數(shù)值最恰當(dāng)?shù)拇钆浞绞剑⒉皇俏覀兘?jīng)常記憶的那些“占據(jù)”，因此小作文中我們將常會(huì)遇到考察的描述對(duì)象可能是“能量”或者“食品的銷(xiāo)量”，與這些最合適的搭配應(yīng)該是這些“靈氣滿滿”的動(dòng)詞 produce，supply或者是 buy,sell,consume
In contrast, France used coal as a source for only 25 units of electricity in 1980, which was matched by natural gas. The remaining 40 units were produced largely from oil and nuclear power, with hydro contributing only 5 units. But by 2000 nuclear power, which was not used at all Australia, had developed into the main source, producing almost 75% of electricity, at 126 units, while coal and oil together produced only 50 units. Other sources were no longer significant.
妖怪3：A be matched by B 即A=B
妖怪4： contribute=produce
妖怪5：develop ，某一個(gè)描述對(duì)象所對(duì)應(yīng)的數(shù)值變得更主導(dǎo)了，我們可以用develop 寫(xiě)出這里所呈現(xiàn)的正向發(fā)展
Overall, it is clear that by 2000 these two countries relied on different principal fuel sources: Australia relied on coal and France on nuclear power.
妖怪6：rely on，depend on 表達(dá)的是“使用量大”的終極總結(jié)。
這些詞匯其實(shí)大家在接觸，account for，constitute，之前早已掌握，只是還沒(méi)有發(fā)現(xiàn)他們?cè)谛∽魑闹械奶烊挥猛景桑瑥慕裉炱?，這些詞匯也出現(xiàn)在你的文章中把，讓考官驚嘆一下，原來(lái)我們的文章中也會(huì)出現(xiàn)這些靈動(dòng)的詞匯小妖怪!
后高考留學(xué)時(shí)代的雅思寫(xiě)作備考策略
最近幾年，高中生出國(guó)留學(xué)的熱潮愈演愈烈。當(dāng)然我不想否認(rèn)在國(guó)內(nèi)上大學(xué)的好處，但是就個(gè)人視野，思維方式的多元以及適應(yīng)能力創(chuàng)新能力等方面，留學(xué)生還是具有相對(duì)的優(yōu)勢(shì)。對(duì)于謀劃留學(xué)的高中生們，高考不是終點(diǎn)，而雅思考試卻是起點(diǎn)。如何準(zhǔn)備雅思考試，具體地說(shuō)，雅思寫(xiě)作考試，是這篇文章的主題。
作為新東方的VIP雅思寫(xiě)作老師，我的學(xué)生主要是高中生和大學(xué)生。在雅思寫(xiě)作的備考過(guò)程中，高中生具有自己的優(yōu)劣勢(shì)。一方面，他們的英語(yǔ)還‘熱乎’ 著，不像大三大四的學(xué)生，英語(yǔ)已經(jīng)‘涼’了幾年了。而且，他們還處于高考備戰(zhàn)的狀態(tài)，能適應(yīng)高強(qiáng)度的學(xué)習(xí)，而大學(xué)生早已經(jīng)習(xí)慣了晚上不睡，早上不起的生活狀態(tài)。但是另一方面，高中生由于多年來(lái)一心只讀圣賢書(shū)，對(duì)社會(huì)問(wèn)題缺少關(guān)注和思考，因此對(duì)雅思寫(xiě)作的題目比較茫然。針對(duì)這些特點(diǎn)，以及高中生普遍遭遇的如下問(wèn)題，提出最有針對(duì)性的備考策略：
1 老師我基礎(chǔ)弱，寫(xiě)作該從哪兒開(kāi)始學(xué)起呢?
2 我的目標(biāo)是6分，需要多長(zhǎng)時(shí)間才能達(dá)到呢?
3 老師，市場(chǎng)上有很多雅思寫(xiě)作的書(shū)，我應(yīng)該參考哪一本?
4 我該報(bào)哪個(gè)培訓(xùn)班?基礎(chǔ)還是強(qiáng)化?
4 我什么時(shí)候安排考試比較合適?考幾次?
如果是學(xué)霸(高考英語(yǔ)130/150以上，平時(shí)成績(jī)保持90/100以上)，自學(xué)當(dāng)然沒(méi)問(wèn)題。買(mǎi)一套劍橋系列真題，看看考官范文和評(píng)分標(biāo)準(zhǔn)，然后在網(wǎng)上搜索一下往年的機(jī)經(jīng)(真題)，挑幾篇練練手，就可以奔赴沙場(chǎng)了。正常發(fā)揮的話，6分穩(wěn)拿。這個(gè)分?jǐn)?shù)完全可以征服大部分的國(guó)外大學(xué)。但是學(xué)霸是極品，這篇文章主要針對(duì)沒(méi)有任何雅思學(xué)習(xí)經(jīng)驗(yàn)的普通同學(xué)。
基礎(chǔ)備考
大多數(shù)同學(xué)還是需要老師的幫助，以便提高效率，節(jié)約時(shí)間，因此首先需要報(bào)一個(gè)輔導(dǎo)班。雅思培訓(xùn)通常分基礎(chǔ)/強(qiáng)化兩種。高考英語(yǔ)90/150分以下，高中英語(yǔ)成績(jī)保持在60/100分左右的同學(xué)，建議先報(bào)基礎(chǔ)班。輔導(dǎo)班最好在畢業(yè)后的暑假就開(kāi)始。第一個(gè)原因是趁熱打鐵;第二，寒暑假的輔導(dǎo)班都是密集學(xué)習(xí)模式，即每天全日制上課，連續(xù)上10天以上。如果錯(cuò)過(guò)，就只能等平時(shí)的周末班或者網(wǎng)絡(luò)課程了。
暑假的密集基礎(chǔ)課程結(jié)束后在家里溫習(xí)一段時(shí)間，做完老師布置的作業(yè)，打扎實(shí)基礎(chǔ)。注意這個(gè)時(shí)候不要參加考試，因?yàn)榛A(chǔ)課程主要不是針對(duì)考試，而是針對(duì)語(yǔ)言。等基礎(chǔ)夯實(shí)之后，9月份再報(bào)一個(gè)強(qiáng)化班。這個(gè)班主要訓(xùn)練考試技能，針對(duì)性比較強(qiáng)。強(qiáng)化班結(jié)課后也要消化一段時(shí)間。最后用劍橋的真題做模擬考試，當(dāng)結(jié)果和預(yù)期的分?jǐn)?shù)相差不大的時(shí)候，就可以報(bào)名考試了。這個(gè)階段使用的教材我推薦《Get Ready For IELTS》。這本書(shū)是針對(duì)基礎(chǔ)較弱的同學(xué)設(shè)計(jì)的雅思教材，其中寫(xiě)作部分在訓(xùn)練寫(xiě)作技能的同時(shí)也設(shè)計(jì)了語(yǔ)言語(yǔ)法訓(xùn)練，練習(xí)比較多，適合基礎(chǔ)弱，時(shí)間緊的學(xué)生。
劍橋雅思考官寫(xiě)作范文：Accept the local culture
Topic: When people move to a new country, they should accept the local culture as their own. Do you agree or disagree ?
題目：當(dāng)人們移居到新的國(guó)家，他們應(yīng)該徹底融入本地文化，你同意還是不同意此觀點(diǎn)?
劍橋雅思考官寫(xiě)作范文：
It is common nowadays for people to move to a new country as immigrants to seek new opportunities for work or to get married. For new immigrants, one of the major issues is to what extent they should accept the local culture as their own. While it is important for the newcomers to follow the local rules and convention in order to adapt to the new environment and start their new lives, I believe that it is beneficial to both the immigrants and their host countries if the new members bring in their own culture and lifestyle for the sake of cultural diversity.
To begin with, new immigrants would make more smooth transition to their new life if they understand how the society of their host countries works and behave accordingly. To consider a simple example, when an American moves to England, she will have to drive on the left side of the road following the English customs. Otherwise, she will immediately find herself either in a severe accident or in jail for breaking the traffic laws. By the same token, a Mexican woman who immigrates to America will have to try to develop her English proficiency in order to better communicate with the local people whose native language is English. Nonetheless, as I will argue later on, following the local convention in one's daily life is one thing, but accepting the local culture as one's own is quite another.
For the American who is now living in England, even though she has to obey all the English laws, she can still choose to retain her American identity and lifestyle. For example, she may cook American food at home and dine with her friends in American-style restaurants. In addition, she can still speak to her children with her American accent and teach her children American values. This is also true for the Mexican woman who moved to America.
In fact, it is now generally acknowledged that cultural diversity should be considered a strength for a nation as people from different backgrounds will have a chance to learn from one another. For example, the American immigrant who cook American food at home might also share with her English neighbors the American recipes and help bring the American cuisine to an English dinner table. The Mexican woman who takes English courses in the local community college may also tutor her American classmates who are learning Spanish or studying Mexican culture.
In conclusion, people who choose to immigrate to a different country may face great challenges and opportunities as they adapt to the new environment. It is true that they need to make the efforts to learn the new rules and culture of the host country. But they should also be encouraged to retain their own cultures and lifestyles as new members of a more diverse society.
