高效运用复合句 写好雅思写作引言段
Well begun is half done,这是大伙都耳熟能详的英语谚语。也就是说一个好看的开头,总是是文章写作成功的一半。特别在雅思写作中,一个好的开头,总是可以在瞬间吸引考官的眼球,留下好的第一印象。那样,大家如何才能写好看的引言段呢?第一,大家要做到单刀直入,明确写作话题和目的。怎么样才能做到单刀直入?大家可以使用以下几种方法:
1. 使用统计数字引出话题,把问题呈目前读者面前;
2. 提出存在争议性的问题,激起读者兴趣,使其积极参与讨论;
3. 以新颖的看法,吸引读者注意力;
4. 呈现该话题正反方的看法;
5. 引用名人名言、谚语等作为文章的开头;
6. 对将要讨论的话题进行概念。
第二,要擅长运用复合句,从而使引言段简洁明了,开宗明义。下面大家将探讨雅思与新托福各种题材和体裁文章引言段的写作办法。 引用数据呈现讨论的话题,说明问题的紧急性或者重要程度,引起读者的关注。下面大家结合几道雅思和新托福作文话题进行实战演练。
大家在写关于体罚的话题文章时,可以如此开头:It is reported that a boy in Zhuhai was beaten to death by his father on Father Day. Ample evidence also shows that children who are frequently abused by their parents or teachers tend to be introverted, pessimistic, indifferent and even world-weary. Recently, there has arisen a fierce argument on whether corporal punishment should be abolished. Teachers, parents and experts take perse attitudes towards this issue.(据报道,在父亲节节日那天,珠海有个小孩子被父亲揍去世了。充分的证据也显示,常常遭爸爸妈妈或老师虐待的孩子总是比较内向、悲观、冷漠甚至厌世。近来,关于是不是应该废除体罚出现了一场激烈的争论,老师、父母和专家各执一词。)
而大家在写关于是否应该控烟的话题时,可以如此开头:A recent study conducted by Zhongshan University has found that the number of smokers1 has been increasing sharply over the past five years. Research findings also reveal that the incidence of smoking-related conditions has soared. As a result, the ban on smoking has been in the spotlight2. (中山大学近期做的一个研究表明,在过去五年里,抽烟者人数急剧上升。研究结果同时显示,抽烟致使的疾病发病率也急剧增长。因此,控烟成了个热门话题。)
