雅思考试有条写作指令叫做:Include relevant examples from your own experience. 所以很多考生在考试时都喜欢使用举例法(exemplification。这一扩展方式本身无可厚非,然而在使用时几种例子是不适合的。
表格说明。即在说明事物或知识时,把与之有关的数字列成表格,插于说明文字之中。表中所列项目,根据说明需要而定。这样说明,既清晰集中,又能进行比较,便于理解和记忆。例如《万紫千红的花》这篇说明文第七自然节,在说明花的颜色时,就列出了表格:
这个表格里的项目有花的颜色和种数两类,共有9种花色,从而形成比较,有力地说明了花色之中白色最多黑色最少的`特点,将被说明的对象介绍得一清 二楚。至于花的姿态,花的开放时间以及花呈不同色彩的原因,表中均末列项,这就既紧扣了课题万紫千红,又突出了说明的重点。
插图说明。有些事物须用图示才能说得清楚,如某种新产品的介绍,某种科学知识的解说,某种复杂的事物的说明等,就常常在文学中配上插图或示意 图,以助文字说明。例如《统筹方法》,在介绍统筹方法时,就先后列举了三个示意图,一是相互关系箭头图,二是工作合并图,三是数字表示任务图,分别如下:
这三幅示意图,形象地再现了统筹方法的主要内容,通过图示不难看出,关系清楚,顺序明了,谁优谁劣不言而喻,从而使这种复杂的科学方法简单化了,给人以鲜明直观的深刻印象,是语言文字所无法比拟的。
运用图表助示法说明事物,表格的项目不可设计过繁,将可比的几个事物或几种知识的主要比项列出即可。图表应放在文中与被说明文字密切相关之处。 图表虽是全文的有机组成部分,但不可过多运用,它只是为文字服务的,起助说作用,图表一多,令人眼花缭乱,容易给人以厌烦和累赘之感。
一个国家同样难代表世界。雅思是international的考试,不应将范围框的太局限。此外考官来自各个国家,过分使用一个国家的例子会引起他们的反感。
例:Many children in China like to play computer games for a long time, leading to their poor eyesight.
只需小小改动便可成为成功范例。
因此,首先考生应了解,举例是一种常见的论述方式,特别在论述某一些比较抽象的话题的'时候(比如文化类或跟艺术相关的话题)。但是,并不是每个段落都需要例证法,举例过多或过分牵强会影响文章的正式感,甚至给考官喋喋不休的感觉。
举例是为了更加形象地叙述事情。朗阁海外考试研究中心提醒考生们要注意以下原则:
不能过于空洞,也不能脱离现时,否则就失去了举例的意义。
Most female consumers shop unwisely.
时间状语和地点状语,都是你的扩句好朋友,不信我们来看:
Most female consumers and their girlfriends shop unwisely and spend too much money in their early ages.(时间状语
Most female consumers and their girlfriends shop unwisely and spend too much money on luxurious purchases.(名词状语
Most female consumers and their girlfriends shop unwisely and spend too much money on souvenirs.(名词状语
即使是状语,也可以通过叠加将句子变得更加丰满。有能力的烤鸭当然可以通过状语从句定语从句等等来让句子更不一样。
Most female consumers and their girlfriends shop unwisely and spend too much money.
这时主语和谓语都已经进行了改善。但是你问还有提升空间吗?当然有!
