如今很多出國的同學都要準備雅思考試,其中雅思寫作是很多同學頭疼的一項。往往很難找到一個思路。那麼考生們應該如何在雅思閱讀中借鑑雅思寫作思路呢?下面大家就隨小編一起去了解一下吧!

如何在雅思閱讀中借鑑雅思寫作思路?

1. 主題性

閱讀文章和雅思寫作題目涵蓋的範圍比較廣,具有極強的主題性,其重合話題有:環境、社會、教育三大方面。閱讀文章的內容能幫助考生更好地理解題目的文化背景,積累觀點素材,在備考過程中,考生可以將這兩項結合起來。

劍四test 2的reading passage 1“Lost for Words”極好的回答了雅思一道較難的文化類考題:what are the reasons for the loss of many cultures and languages? How to solve this problem?”

許多學生因爲缺少對這一背景的瞭解而無從下手,我們完全可以看看這篇閱讀文章提供了哪些素材:

1 “What makes a language endangered is not just the number of speakers, but how old they are. If it is spoken by children, it is relatively safe。”

2 “…people reject the language of their parents… It begins with a crisis of confidence, when a small community finds itself alongside a larger, wealthier society…”

3 “Quite often, governments try to kill off a minority language by banning its use in public or discouraging its use in schools, all to promote national unity。”

4 “… They cannot refuse to speak English if most commercial activity is in English…”

這些都是十分準確而又全面的回答,說明了許多語言喪失的原因,甚至連語言喪失對於文化的連帶影響也有所涉及:“Language is also intimately bound with culture, so it may be difficult to preserve one without the other。”

這篇文章在後文也對如何解決這一問題做出了回答:

“ …a growing interest in cultural identity may prevent the direst prediction from coming true….’apprentice’ programs have provided life support t several indigenous languages。”

值得注意的是,這篇閱讀文章的結構是遵循“背景—原因—解決方式”的架構來安排的,對於寫作結構也有很好的架構作用。

 2.流程圖的描述

2010年雅思寫作Task I圖畫題頻現,許多學生不太熟悉流程圖,對於如何描述其過程極爲擔心。其實分析發現,這樣的句式在說明型的閱讀文章中屢見不鮮,這類閱讀文章常常涉及某個事物的發展過程或者製作方式,其遣詞造句都是可以進行學習和利用。

劍五Test 2 Reading passage 1是一篇關於對現代塑料的說明文章,其中有一段就是對塑料製作過程的描述,很多句式都可以“拿來我用”。

首先是對這一流程的總體概括“The original patent outlined a three-stage process, in which phenol and formaldehyde were initially combined under vacuum inside a large egg-shaped kettle。” 我們可以根據這個句式來描寫2009年9月一道關於玻璃瓶子回收過程的題目,如:

“A three-stage process is outlined, in which the used bottles are collected and re-produced in the plant. “

接着,製作過程中的細節按照先後順序鋪開,並結合被動語態與準確的動詞選擇:“The resin was allowed to cool in shallow trays until it hardened, and then broken up and ground into powder. Other substances were then introduced, including…. . In the last stage, the heated Bakelite was poured into a hollow mould of the required shape …”,其中的”cool, break, grind, pour”等動詞都是在工作流程中的高頻詞彙。“then, in the last stage”也可以作爲極好的連接過渡詞。

劍五Test 4 Reading passage 2關於強化玻璃的說明文中也有類似的描述句式:“… used to make glass, and nickel can also be introduced by fragments of nickel alloys falling into the molten glass. As the glass is heated, these atoms react to form …”

其中的“be used to, introduce, melt, heat”也都可以用在描述中。

 3.圖表的描述

由於閱讀文章中也不乏對於數據的說明,我們也很容易找到可以在雅思圖表作文中使用的句式。

劍四 Test 2 Reading passage 2中的一段“According to…, 18% of patients…; 12% suffer from…, which is only 1% more than those…. . Those suffering from… represents 7% of their patients, and candida sufferers represent an equal percentage. … represent 6% and 5% respectively, and a further 4% see… “

這是一段很好的排序段範例,在描寫數據的同時也比較了大小,句式變化多樣,考生也不妨學習一下。

 4.辯論文章觀點的表述

儘管沒有與雅思寫作辯論文章完全對應的形式,閱讀文章中也有很多可以效仿的觀點表述句式,與學生動輒“some people think…”的單調錶述相比,其表達生動多樣。在此進行了一些總結:

如“… reject this, pointing out that… ”, “When it comes to…,…”, “… believe the main reason for… is…”, “there is a widespread belief that…”, “It was once assumed that…. . However,…”, “There is an abundance of evidence to support the belief that…” , “the answer to… depends on…”,等。

總之,作爲較爲正式的英文表達,雅思閱讀是極好的寫作模仿對象。考生可以從閱讀文章裏汲取許多好的句式,以克服在日常寫作中“中式英語”的問題。

 5. 用詞

雅思寫作對詞彙的要求主要是準確性和多樣性,許多學生對這一標準沒有明確的認識和把握,而在閱讀文章中可以很清楚地瞭解到什麼樣的詞彙更適合書面表達。
