試問雅思寫作高分詞彙何處尋,普天之下,大約只有到劍橋雅思寫作範文裡去找了,Annie以為,在雅思寫作中,詞彙是沒有高低貴賤之分的。所謂的高分詞彙,其實就是最滿足表達需要,最準確地傳遞了作者意圖的詞彙。請看考官範文示例分析。
如果認真研究考官範文,我們會發現真正的雅思官方範文裡是不會大量使用一些老師所謂「高級大詞」的,換句話說,考官範文中那些真正的雅思寫作「高級詞」基本上你都能看懂。
比如雅思考官原創段落1:
From a personal perspective, it can be argued that these courses provide more job opportunities, career progression, better salaries, and therefore an improved quality of life for students who take them. On the societal level, by forcing people to choose particular university subjects, governments can ensure that any knowledge and skill gaps in the economy are covered.
雅思考官在這個段落中,論述了大學生學習理工類學科的好處!具備大學英語四級(CET-4)詞彙量的同學,你們會發現這個段子你基本上都能看懂,這些詞彙有一個共同特點 — 具體,比如provide more job opportunities 提供更多工作機會, career progression 職業發展, better salaries 豐厚的工資。此外,像skill gaps in the economy are covered,縮短經濟時代中的技能差距,有多少同學能夠想到用cover這個單詞來表示「縮短」呢?所以,你會發現真正的高手寫出來的雅思作文你是可以看懂的,但是,很多詞彙你卻寫不出來。
再比如考官原創段落2:
By building such easy-to-reach sporting facilities, people who lead sedentary life are more likely to walk out rather than sitting in front of the screen all day. Besides, the diverse sports facilities can cater for all ages. For example, the outdoor sporting field is mostly used by young people to play football or basketball; likewise, fitness facilities built in the community are beneficial for elderly people who enjoy warm-up exercise.
上面這個段落是考官用來論述修建體育設施是如何改善人們健康的。你會發現某些詞彙與該大作文話題高度相關!比如,easy-to-reach sporting facilities 觸手可及的運動設施, sedentary life 久坐不動的生活狀態, cater for all ages 適合不同年齡的人,warm-up exercise 熱身運動,如果這些詞你無法脫口而出的話,那麼我便有理由認為任何一個涉及到健康方面的觀點你是寫不好的。而這些,正是我們苦苦以求的雅思寫作高分詞彙。
通過以上兩個段子,我們可以得出一個重要結論:寫作中真正的「高級詞」=與話題高度相關的詞=具體的詞=你看見認識卻無法主動寫出的詞!
祝大家雅思寫作高分詞彙有如滔滔江水連綿不絕,2019年與雅思一戰即分道揚鑣。
