对许多考生来说,写作往往是个令人头疼而且也难以突破的单项。的确,要频繁写出各种复杂句着实要费一番功夫,此外,还要表达有逻辑,论证可以展开,论点配有论据,以至于基础不好想有突破—艰难,基础较好想拿到高分—不易。
PTE——目前的纯机考机批的考试,你是否满心期待突破写作单项达成目标分?你是否同时有感到迷茫正寻找着备考策略?下面我们就介绍两个亲民的备考“工具”:机经和模板。
机经
首先,我们来聊聊“机经”。这听起来并不陌生,毕竟各类考试都机经。比如雅思机经也很普遍。但是,在PTE的写作考试中,机经有着相对较高的命中率,尤其是writing essay 这个题型,许多考生都在考场上碰到熟悉的题目,如果你事先认真练过那更是信心满满。
01
翻看机经题目
然而,我们千万不要因此觉得写作变得容易了,更不可疏忽大意。实际上,这里写作题目涉及知识面很广,题目文法灵活;如果你本来基础不算扎实,那么熟悉机经就是必要的,翻看机经题目,会遇到一些问题看了几遍都不明其意,也有些题目看懂了确思路闭塞,无点可论,无据可举。
02
注意时间规划
我常常遇到学生听着都懂,写起来真的好难,完成一篇200多字的作文要个1小时,有时连凑上200词都难。请注意考试你只有每篇作文20分钟,而且你要留有时间审题,思考论点论据,最后检查修改明显的语法和拼写错误,真正敲字的时间恐怕也就十来分钟。
由此,的方案是考前多看机经,近期的机经(30-40题)更是踏踏实实写上10篇,主要确保有论点论据,并且不会表达的预先准备词伙,还要确保不要搞混。近期采访了一位一次破七的童鞋,她此前雅思写作成绩一直不理想,PTE考试前也颇感压力,考前当月机经三十几题认真写了一遍,考试中碰到了其中一题,顺利通过了。而相反,有些童鞋甚至不会知道碰到的原题,因为机经没有坚持看或者没有认真练习,过目即忘了。总之,熟悉和练习机经题目,预先准备你没思路或者不会表达的题目,应对考试必定从容自信。如果你在考试前有较长时间的准备,可以先把经典题目练起来,老师们已经为你准备好了。
模板
另一个重要的“工具”是模板。这里要说明的是“模板”是可以在各类题目下可以运用自如的句型和连接作用的词和短语。模板对于考试的帮助主要是:
1.为你节省了思考句型和衔接的时间。如果你答题较慢,或者打字不快,那么更建议可以先在答题框里敲模板,再把内容组织好语言填写带入。
2.提示思路和内容。如果你经常容易写的天马行空,偏题离题,那么有稳定的模板可以提醒你下一句要写什么,一定程度上有助于避免偏题或者断片。
3说点更实际的作用,模板往往是有连接词和句型,什么词什么句可以有所选择。比如,你的基础不错,有表达输出能力,那么句型比例可以少一点,主要记段落前后关键位置的句型,否则,写起来反而被约束导致写的更慢;但如果你的基础薄弱,造句困难,而且只能写对简单句,那么模板里多记些从句吧,起码增加你在general linguistic range上的得分,可以用的连接词也都用上,帮助得到更高的development,structure and coherence的分数,甚至vocabulary上也有助于得分。
总之,正确合理的使用模板对多数PTE考生是有实际的帮助的。许多考生都能在写作上获得分数突破。而且能顺利答完题目也会极大增强自信。当然,请注意你要确定明确你用的模板是怎么写出的,表达什么意思,填写什么内容,生搬硬套,死记硬背显然不会获得想要的结果。说到这里,我们不妨一试,把essay写起来:
Obviously, it is undoubtedly the case that schools play a vital role in our society. There are numerous arguments with regard to this phenomenon, and the statement that schools should help youngsters in their later academic life rather than profession. As far as I am concerned, the purpose of schools should also include fostering prospective labors.
First and foremost, the principal objective of schools is toprepare youngsters for prospective academic life. Nobody can deny the simple fact that in present workplace competition is intense and the bachelor degree is often included as requirement. The latest survey from China has revealed thatyoungsters with only high school education struggle for a job or they could only find one inferior in payment or welfare.From my own experience, university is my goal which motivates me to consistently work hard in all subjects.
However, it should also be emphasized that not all students have access to university, which is probably due to the fact that in many places the number of universities is way smaller than the number of schools, which means over half of youngsters will not enter university. The best solution for these youngsters would be to join the labor force instead, and they certainly need to prepare early for this alternative. This actually explains why in schools curricula often include a variety of subjects rather than just academic ones, so that students may discover interest and talent in non-academic fields such as sports or mechanics.
In conclusion, never should we neglect what we have discussed above. Nowadays, more and more students are focusing on work in the future. And I do hope this essay would offer some insights.
这篇essay 共计279词,其中非划线部分都是相对固定的连接词和句型,已经占了较大的比例,即使实际写的内容部分再少一点,也不必担心写不够字,这会极大地减少压力。最后,希望各位考生找到适合你的写作模板,把机经也练起来,预祝大家获得理想的成绩。
