在论坛上混的时间也不是很短了,首先还是要感谢论坛上各位学长学姐提供的帮助和建议,我也希望这份帮助也可以给学弟学妹以启迪,让你们能进入理想的学校深造,为美好的未来打好基础。
关于英语,我想就个人经验谈一下大作文写作,希望可以对大家有所助益。
首先的问题是模版有没有用?我觉得要从自身的情况出发。模版一般能有100字左右,有些甚至可以写到150字(当然适用范围也会打点折扣,有些情况硬套这些模版读起来会很不自然。)如果准备考试的时间比较短,特别是对于在职考研的研友而言,准备一些80-100字的万用模版可以减轻很多的工作量,毕竟工作和考研两者都是个巨大的消耗。而对于应届或者时间比较充裕的战友,4-5个月的时间,完全可以突破作文,并没有必要刻意去准备模版。通过考试前的写作练习,总结出自己适用的模版, 在考试时候发挥出来,既顺手又可以出彩,效果比准备现成的模版要好处许多。而英语成绩比较优秀的各位同胞,特别是有参加国外考试,比如托福,GRE等经验的,要注意考研不同于国外考试,作文的字数限制,使得运用修辞和变化要适当,逻辑并没有严格的要求(个人感觉),所以保险起见,写三段论比较好,一段描述,一段分析,一段总结,字数一定不要超过太多,平时的练习适当注意下,写成“大头娃娃”的作文也是得不到高分的(嘿嘿)。
练习写作要准备什么?我想肯定有很多研友和我开始写作时一样,对如何准备有些茫然,其实现在看来,作文的准备相对来说是最容易的,因为你在做阅读时,你在背单词的时候,其实都是在准备作文。背单词的重要性我就不多赘述了,只说一下提高写作应该注意背什么,托福考试给我们提供了很好的经验,第一就是关注同义词,近义词以及短语,这使得表达同样的意思而不重复,第二是连接词语,可以让文章更有层次,第三是分类词语,这可以让你写作确定主题时可以更快的构思,也同时方便你记忆单词,提高阅读能力。做阅读练习的时候,看到好句子记录一下,自己试着去改装一下,套用一下,(这个很重要,个人感觉)记忆一些文中出现的名言名句,积累起来就是一笔巨大的财富。
另外,好作文是改出来的,就算开始写作的时候难以下笔,句子破碎,try to change it!
自己先改,先保证单词正确,句子没语法错误,再看看那里能有提高的地方,比如陈述句能不能做一些改写,单词能不能做到有替换,加入插入语。。。。。这是练习,不是考试,花上1个小时去改一篇文章,你会发现最后的成品远远超出你的想象,把自己的习作拿给老师,其他同学看看,让他们提提意见,再修改,这样写作4-5篇,写作能力肯定会有提高的。
PS:进入考前冲刺要关注速度,严格控制时间!保持压力去写作对于写好作文很有帮助。
所谓的理论说的差不多了,下面两篇是我准备考研时写的,权当作案例谈下体会。
Love is a lamp (2001)
Thought-out the history of mankind, affection of love, the importance of which is out of questions,(这句放哪都说的过去) is regarded as the gorgeous and noblest self-performance of humankind. (每幅图画都有一个主题,找出来做下诠释。这里可以使用插入语)It is vividly proved in the upper picture (用来描述图画,prove可以做替换)that a lamp in darkness burns itself with smile, as if he were the saint in hell, weak but unconquerable. (as if可以让图画描述更形象)
Love is not only based on the moral standards of human being, but attitude towards a man’s responsibility for society.(not only, but also句型很好用) Presents for homeless person wandering on the street in Merry Chrisman; the bank loans giving to drop-outs in tears from western china in poverty; Shelters for aged people knocking at their children’s door receiving nothing but echoes, all of which are the lamps in their troublesome and despaired lives, not only giving them encouragements and enthusiasms, but also lighting up a hopeful flame in their inner selves.(把名词形象化可以有意外的收获)
We hold this truth to be self-evident that(后面可以加名言名句) love makes the world go around. “Seek, and you will receive. “That is the love from our father in heaven; “Hey, body, do me a favor? Sure.” That is the love in our common life. Presents, loans and shelters, as we have just mentioned, are the lamps for those in need. Furthermore, what we have done something good for others is not only rooted in charity but the welfare for all humankind. To cherish the love from others we have got today, as the same that others have done for ours,(这句是圣经祷词的改写,” forgive the wrongs we have done today, as we forgive the wrongs that others have done to us.” ) the world will be a better place for all of us to live (254)
The circle of achievement (2004)
Through out the history of mankind, achievements, especially the most remarkable ones, are regarded as the final rewards or acknowledgements of the publication. However, for the further development, we can not be confined to the shortsighted success. Furthermore, we can not terminate the procedure to the everlasting theme----the welfare of all humankind. As the youngster in the upper picture shows that, in a long-distance and exhausting race, the ending line is not only the end of the cycle, but another commencement of an unknowable journey.
The china’s entering of the WTO, since 1980, was once put to be the longest negotiation in our history. After more than 20 years’ diligent and troublesome work, with the enthusiasm of diplomas and their fellowships, we finally realize this long-time dream in the winter of 2001. Looking backward the trip full of patriotic affections, we can not only admire it in the feast, but be well equipped for the coming battles on the overseas corporations. if we are not able to get an upper hand in this severe global competition, our domestic market will be in great trouble and occupied by foreign companies in less than ten years, which means a real disaster to our local manufactory .That is the paradox which economists are now deeply concerned about.
“Victory is not achieved, but through sacrifice.” As a former admiral once said, the final success is not standing with the mercy of opponents, but diligence and ambition. The circle of achievement is a process in which each ending is connected with another beginning, eternal, everlasting and promoted step by step. The entering of the WTO is just our first step to the world market under common regulations. The future, either delicious or poisonous, all relies on us----the generation born in 1980s.
一点小体会,仅供参考,习作中未发现的错误还望各位海涵。总之,自己试着去总结一些,积累一些,练习去改变一些,3,4个月的积累也足够应付考研之需要,和今年的作文一样,有信心,才能有所成。“只要决心成功,失败就永远不会把你打垮!”
