应避免的词组
上次我们说了需要替换的形容词,这次让我们来说一说动次打次,动词。
1,think,绝对是考官在作文中看的最经常的一个词,很多时候大家都会写some people think that…这个句子没有错,错就错在太常见了,这里我们推荐2种方法把这个老掉牙的搭配改掉:
第一种,同义词替换,把think替换成别的词,比如hold the (opinion/ belief/ position/stand point/idea) that, assume, reckon, argue, maintain, suppose , insist, be convinced, to my knowledge, personally, from my
personal perspective(从我个人的角度来看)。虽然这些词有他们本身的意思, 在写作中可以统一理解成“认为”的意思。
第二种可以用it做形式主语,写一个主语从句,比如,It is thought that/It is widely noted that/It is universally acknowledged that… 用被动来写句子有的时候会使文章更加客观
2,show通常小作文开头段第一句开头段的改写会用到这个词,例如,The graph shows…,图表表明了…,这里的show可以替换成别的词 imply, clarify, convey, disclose/reveal, indicate, mean, explain, give an/a example(reason, explanation/information) of, point out(指出)
3,know的同义词也有很多,第一遍用过know,第二遍不如换个词,比如realize, comprehend, identify, distinguish, notice, perceive, recognize, figure out
4,get作“获得”的意思时要注意acquire, attain, acquire, achieve, obtain, gain 都可以替换它,但是“获得”后面如果接的是skill/knowledge,前面的动词只能用acquire
5,最后说2个经常会在小作文里面用到的动词,上升和下降,increase & decrease。
相信大多数同学都认识这两个词,但是把这两个词全篇文章从头用到尾,显然是没有做到评分标准里“词汇资源”这一条,作文分数也不可能高。其实,上升下降也有很多可以同义替换的词。
