福利來嘍!!!
對於備考時間已經徹底不夠,甚至連書都已經看不下去了的烤鴨來說
其實不妨試試通過練習劍橋聽力題來提高對於口語連貫性的感覺
多聽劍4~劍13每套題裡面的聽力段子,並且把4~劍13後面的聽力文本(audioscripts)也看上幾遍,耳濡目染也能提高對英語連貫性的感覺
另外,大家都知道,在雅思寫作的評分標準中,連貫與銜接(Coherence and Cohesion)是很重要的一項。連貫性指文章的流暢程度,文章的觀點應該邏輯清楚,易於理解和把握。而銜接性是指連接詞的使用,這有助於整合觀點並闡明段落、句子或句子成分之間的關係,增強大家組織文章、銜接信息和觀點的能力
由此可見連接詞對口語以及寫作有著舉足輕重的作用
比如,這個(劍10)的聽力段子裡就用到了不少我們已經學到的地道英文連接詞:
The goals we are focusing on affect the way we think. For example, when focusing on promotion goals, people consider their ideal self and their gains. They don't think about what they can lose, so they think in a happier mode. By contrast, when people are focusing on prevention goals, they think about what they should be doing and what people are expecting from them . As a result ,they experience more anxiety and try to avoid situations where they could lose.
這個《劍13》的"段子"同樣展示了地道英文是怎樣體現連貫性的:
Sarah Partan and her team have been looking at how squirrels communicate in anurban environment, and they've found that a routine part of their communication is carried out by waving their tails. You also see this in the country but it's much more common in cities, probably because it's effective in a noisy environment .One of the possible long-term effects of this is that we may see new species developing in cities. On the other hand ,it's possible that not all the adaptations will be permanent.
劍4~劍13裡的同類段子還有很多,您練習聽力的時候就能清楚地感受到,小編就
不提供更多"劇透"(spoiler)了。
既然panda小編是解救萬千烤鴨於水深火熱中,下面就為大家整理出了幾常見的雅思連接詞,希望對大家備考雅思中對寫作,聽說讀寫都有所幫助。
補充信息:and / … also… / … too / … as well / Besides,…
and是英美日常生活裡 native speakers表示並列或者補充信息時最常用、而且也聽起來最自然的連接詞,沒有之一
<劍13>例句:They concentrate on teaching you to prepare healthy food and they have quite a lot of specialist staff.
Also ,too和as well也都很實用,also在口語裡一般出現在句子中間,而too和as well在句子結尾出現比較多
<劍13>例句:We also plan to widen the pavement on School Street.
Besides,……在口語裡經常出現在句子開頭,用來給出補充信息
例:I don't really want to go .Besides ,it's too late now.
因果:… because / therefore / … so…
如果在一個句裡用了because,就不曼再用so,反之亦然,它們在同一個句子裡 「不兼容」
<劍13)例句:I've just moved to the city so I dont know many people yet.
Therefore ,可以在Part 3的深入討論裡適當使用1-2次,如果進多則會讓考官產生壓迫感
舉例:like... / such as.. / For example,... / and stuff like that / and things like that.
除了 For example,……/such as這兩個實用的舉例方式之外,「ike +名詞」也是英美生活裡的「舉例神品":
<劍13>例句:They improved their telephone skills ,such as writing down messages and speaking with confidence to potential customers.
例:I'm into fantasy novels like Harry Potter and The Hunger Games.(這裡改用 such as也沒問題)
例:There can be a variety of ways to help others .For example,we can do voluntary work in our community.We can also give money to charities.Even just giving others advice when they need it would be a good way to help others.
轉折:But... / However,...
表示轉折,這兩個說法都可以,在口語裡 But要比However更常用.
條件;if …,…/ …as long as …
if是口語裡表示如果最自然的詞
<劍13>例句:We need to have a word with the tutor if we are going to go ahead with it.
as long as是只要……的意思,比如Backstreet Boys 的歌詞『I don't care who you are,where you're from or what you did,as long as you love me,』
(劍13)>例句:We can deal with the problem as long as we have enough equipment.
對比:On the other hand,……/ while/..By contrast……
On the other hand,(另一方面,……)
例:My job is quite stressful.On the other hand,it pays well.
while在口試中,特別是在Part3裡而使用1~2次完全可以,而且效果也挺自然的,只要別不停地while……while……while…… 就沒關係
例:l do most of the housework whlle Amanda only does the dishes.
By contrast 它也很適合在Part3的深入討論部分裡引出兩種人或兩種事物之間的對比:
例:Men think of shopping as a task.By contrast,women think of shopping as a hobby.
讓步:Although
Althoug…,…是「儘管"的意思
<劍13>例句:Although they move slowly,they can travel quite long distances.
替代:rather than/instead of
rather than和instead of都表示「而不是」,中國考生們普遍很熟悉這兩個地道短語,卻很少能想到在口語裡面去使用它們:
例:Many history programmes focus on opinion rather than fact.
例:Developed countries should help develo-ping countries improve their education system instead of just giving them money.
Huuuuuuuu ……
Panda小編為了萬千烤鴨,已經盯在電腦屏幕前一個下午嘍(頭暈眼花)
今天的分享就到這裡啦
小編還要碎碎念一句
雅思口語寫作評分標準——連貫與銜接下,建議烤鴨們恰當地使用連接詞或短語來連接段落和句子
注意也不要使用過度!!
而且雅思寫作6分的官方要求中提到了「有效地使用銜接手段」
所以大家一定要多多積累雅思寫作邏輯連接詞哦
