審題錯誤會直接導(dǎo)致糟糕的task response,因為考生可能因?qū)忣}錯誤而答非所問或者漏回答問題而無法做到sufficiently address all parts of the task。這樣的話,接下來也必然無法presents a well-developed response to the question with relevant, extended and supported ideas。這一點出問題的話,接下來的銜接詞匯語法再如何出彩都于事無補。 所以很多跑題偏題的作文大多分?jǐn)?shù)慘不忍睹,往往撐死5分。如此重要的一個環(huán)節(jié),遺憾的是,卻是大多數(shù)考生不太的一節(jié)。在此請諸位考生在沉溺于寫出所謂高端詞匯華麗句子無法自拔前先靜下心來看看到底我們要如何正確理解題目的意思從而不偏題跑題。 1.找出題目的側(cè)重點 大家都知道雅思的作文題目由題干和提問兩部分組成,題干部分一般會由一到兩句話構(gòu)成,兩句話間可以是轉(zhuǎn)折或遞進(jìn)的邏輯關(guān)系。如果這樣,那么題目的中心應(yīng)該放在后半部分。 如: Scientific and technological advances bring benefits to our daily life. However, most scientists are no longer able to find solutions to the problems they have created. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
乍一看這題可能很多考生都會專門拿出一段來寫科技帶來的好處。但如果這樣處理就已經(jīng)偏題了,因為顯然這道題的中心應(yīng)該是在however轉(zhuǎn)折的后半句。所以這道題的重點應(yīng)該放在論述“科學(xué)家到底是否已經(jīng)無法處理他們創(chuàng)造出來的問題了”。 Many employees may work from home with modern technology. Some people claim that it can benefit workers only, not the employers. Do you agree or disagree? 同樣,如以上這題,雖然題干兩句話中沒有任何轉(zhuǎn)折連詞,但我們依然能讀出前后兩句的轉(zhuǎn)折邏輯。所以同樣這道題的側(cè)重點應(yīng)該放在討論“是否現(xiàn)代科技只對雇員有利”這一點即可,而不需要過多筆墨強(qiáng)調(diào)具體給worker帶來了哪些好處。 2.學(xué)會區(qū)分類似題目間的區(qū)別 雅思大作文中存在很多類似的話題,如果我們不對其進(jìn)行具體分析可能會覺得每道題目的寫法都差不多,而事實上能否找出這些看上去大同小異的題目中的細(xì)微區(qū)別將直接影響我們的寫作是否扣題。 讓我們來試著對比兩題: 1、Some people believe children should be encouraged to watch TV both at home and at school. To what extent do you agree or disagree? 2、Some people believe that children can learn effectively by watching TV and they should be encouraged to watch TV both at home and at school. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
