写作
四级考试的写作部分有其固有的特点,即对作文的话题、观点和字数都有严格的限制,重点考查的是考生的英语书面表达能力。
笔者作为四级阅卷老师,比较熟悉阅卷老师的普遍心理。在阅卷过程中,老师最重视的是考生的语言表达,言之无文,行而不远,考生作文的语言使用能力对评分起着决定性作用。然而,语言的贫乏向来是中国考生写作的通病。四级写作中,经常会出现整篇作文一个词用到底的情况,例如一遇到改变/变化就是change,影响就是effect,流行就是popular, 因为就是because,意识到就是realize等。
试想一下,阅卷老师在批阅了无数篇作文并产生了审美疲劳后,最想看到什么?肯定是一些能让人眼前一亮的词汇或短语。所以,考生就要从用词的多样性方面来吸引阅卷老师的眼球。其实英语词汇是很丰富的,同一个意思可以有很多不同的词汇来表达。下面表格列举了一些常见词汇的多种表达方式。
