应该很多同学都知道,考试主要有3个部分,如果你掌握了这三个部分的技巧,那么托福综合写作的*段就OK了,阅读、听力和写作3个部分。
*,使用不同的词汇
a.使用同义词,比如以下的一些写作高频词汇的同义词,你一定要掌握,出现的尤为频繁。
important→essential,crucial,vital,significant,
think→claim,believe,consider,deem,figureout
nowadays→currently,at present,now,recently,in recent years,these days
b.改变词性,这是一种稍微难一些的方法,要求你的语法基础非常好,你才能灵活自如的运用。
n.→v.
Eg:When we look at a comparisonbetween A and B…
When we compare A and B…
Adj.→n.
There are a variety of solutionsto the problem.
There are various solutions to the problem.
c.使用不同的承接词。承接词在文章当中的使用相当频繁,不仅是段落和段落的连接,还包括句子和句子的连接。背住一些常用的承接词比你的改写将会有极大的作用。
because of→due to,owing to,because,as,since,for
but→however,nevertheless,nonetheless,whereas
so→therefore,hence,thus,consequently
d.形容词的逆向表达。在某些形容词上进行修改,会达到非比寻常的效果。
Eg:not as easy as…→more difficult than…
Not uncommon→common
The cheapest→the least expensive
第二,使用不同的句型
a.改变词序。这是非常简单的一种方法,完全不用动脑筋就可以进行改写。常常将句子中的状语(包括状语从句)换位置。
Eg:For many years,people have believed….
→People believed…for many years.
After this programhas been solved,work on…can continue.
b.主动语态和被动语态的互相替换
Eg:Trained scientists performed this research.
→This research was performed by trained scientists.
c.使用“there be”句型,可以将一个简单句,马上变成一个加入定语从句或者分词的复杂句。
Eg:Several computer programs can be used to solvethis problem.
→There are several computer programs that can be used to solve this problem.
或There are several computer programs used to solve this problem.
d.定语从句,分词和插入语的互相替换
Eg:Study…,conductedby sociologists in 2004,shows that…
→Study…,which was conducted by sociologists in 2004,shows that…
Eg:This…,which is one of the most powerful…in the world,has…
→This…,one of the most powerful…in the world,has…
接下来,Cite,即引用。综合写作乃客观写作,只是一个旁观者的角度对这两篇文章的内容进行描述,因此,某观点是出自哪篇文章一定要说清楚。所以,下面的这些句型在综合写作中必不可缺。
a.According to+noun.
Eg:According to the passage/lecture/author/professor,…
b.Subject+verbs of reporting+that clause
Eg:The author tells/reports/suggests/explains/says/argues/states/indicates/claims/points out/thinks/believes that…
或The speaker agrees/disagrees/rejects/disputes/challenges/takes a different view….
c.As is indicated/displayed/illustratedin the passage/lecture,...
