1)使用同义词。
比如以下的一些写作高频词汇的同义词,这些词出现的尤为频繁。要学会用同义词来替换它们。
在综合写作中教授说话不能总是用think,还可以用believe, consider, deem, figure out。在托福独立写作中表示近来的时间状况用nowadays,还可以用recently,currently, at present, in recent years, these days
再比如表示重要的词有important,一篇文章如果要求描写某物重要,不能只写important这一个词吧,和它类似的还有necessary, crucial, essential, vital, significant , indispensable, momentous, 如果还需要再变化,就可以用下面的改变词性的方法。
2)改变词性。
n.→ Adj. 比如:important改成be of importance
n. → v. When we look at a comparison between A and B…
When we compare A and B…
Adj. → n.
There are a variety of solutions to the problem.
There are various solutions to the problem.
3)更换使用不同的承接词。承接词不仅连接段落和段落,还连接句子和句子。熟识一些常用的承接词对写作将会有极大的作用。
because of → due to, owing to, because, as, since, for
but → however, nevertheless, nonetheless, whereas
so → therefore, hence, thus, consequently
4)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
其次,是句型的使用。在新托福写作部分,评分标准中非常重要的一项就是句型结构,要求句型结构做到丰富多变。例如下面的典型美句,就可以让你的文章加分:
1)it句
It is delightful to have friends from distant lands.
It is undeniable that…
It is obvious that…
2)双否句
it is by no means uncommon to find…
…never fails to …
3)倒装句
So severe is this problem that we have no alternative but to take some feasiblemeasures to deal with it.
Only through education can we rise in the world.
此外,美国人的另一特点就是注重具体内容。即要求我们写的作文具体化。新托福写作的宗旨在于communicating information。中文经过长久的发展,追求的是含蓄、抽象,用最少的话来表达深刻的思想,但美国人思维却是具体的。如果按照中国人思维写作,美国人会无法领会,我们的托福作文也就只能得低分。
