新托福写作:把握好结构会加分

应对国外考试作文,尤其是托福的写作,最简单,看似最cliché,但同时也是最经典的,就是“五段论”的结构。简而话之,就是“总分总”的结构。因为其的有用,所以常用,所以经典。而具体经典在何处并如何使用,是下文要仔细讲解的。

英文的考场的作文,尤为讲究开门见山的方式,如果不在第一段就亮出自己的立场,而在开头云里雾里虚无缥缈,这是在给改卷考官制造理解文章的障碍,极不可取。因此,首先,在开头的最后一句话结束前一定要有表达自己观点的句子出现。并且,开头的前一两句可以准备自己常用的模板句。最好是自己总结的,可以参照不同的来源的模板,但一定要自己改编、结合,从而有自己的一个套路。这样可以防止被判雷同,否则背得再漂亮的句子也白搭。尽量让每次练习文章时把题目往上套,让开头华丽些,起到吸引人往下读的效果。同时也要保证开头没有任何的语法错误,至少在自己看来是没有一点瑕疵的。因此对于开头的检查次数至少是全文的+1遍,保证这个门面没有问题。这对于后面的具体展开是个很好的铺垫,并且会让考官的印象分很高。

在正文的部分,三段是要保证的。也就是三个分论点。这里注意一个原则:可以“一点多段”,但不可“一段多点”。也就是在一个论点写完前不要引入新的论点。如果结束了就换段,保证一段的中心只有一个。如果对于一个点的论述很长,可以分成两段。另外,为什么要有三个论点?这是从文章的充实度来考虑的。托福写作可以完全不用例子,而采用全篇的议论。所以如果有三个论点会让文章看起来很平衡,能撑住整篇文章。两个太少,需要用足够的论述或是加例子才能使文章字数达到350以上;而四个论点又太多,没有足够的时间来充实每一点的话,只会一笔带过第四个点,从而会因为“论点发展不完全”而成为扣分点。这对文章来说,是致命的地雷。所以三个点很是必需。

其实有心人会发现,托福出题者本身也对三论点形式有所倾向。在写作的另一个部分——综合写作中,不论是其中的阅读还是听力,也必定提供三个理由,也就是三论点架构。由此可见,独立写作中套用三论点架构必是安全可取,甚至讨巧的结构。同时,在这三段的开头一定要有明显的连接词,如“first of all, in addition, moreover”等词来引出每一段,提示会有新的论点出现。这样的套语或是套句也都可以事先准备,每次套用。

最后是起总结作用的结尾。到了这个部分,很多考生往往时间相对来说紧张,所以也要求在平时练习的时候结尾的套句一定要准备,并且不难准备。只要再次点到全文的大观点就行,当然决不能照抄开头表达立场的那一句,完全重复一定扣分,又是地雷一枚。应该以不同的方式讲同一个话题,这也是我们常说的贯彻托福考试始终的同义替换问题。

因此,如此下来,五段论的结构不难做到,并且各段作用明显的话对整篇文章来说本身就是一个亮点。改卷考官一般看到如此清晰的结构印象分就高了,如果论点不离题,语言不犯太大错误,20+的分数一定有;而如果语言句式再出彩一些的话,25+不成问题。曾经有我的学生照此结构练习,并且每篇都套上几乎一样的开头结尾连接词,最后写作部分拿到了29分,虽然其他部分分数并不太高。并且笔者也曾在新托福考试中就用此结构拿到29分,再次实地验证其得分效率。由此可见,写作部分要想有成绩的飞跃,其实要求并不高,而投入产出率一定高。只要花一定的时间做针对性的练习,就一定会有提高。

托福写作,结构规划很重要

新托福写作的文章规划主要指的是文章的整体框架结构上的规划,也就是写提纲。写提纲是为了帮助大家确定并理清自己的思维,在写整个文章的时候有充足而具体的内容。下面小编带大家看看怎样对新托福写作进行结构规划。

由于考场上时间有限,考生必须在平时练就快速构思的本领,以便到考场上能迅速调动自己的思维,规划文章结构。通常情况下,我们给大家推荐五段三点式文章结构。即Introduction 一段,Body三段, 和Conclusion一段。一般第一段会用2-4句话陈述自己的观点,大约60字左右。第2到4段从三个方面论述自己的观点,每段约100字。结尾段用 1-3句话总结自己的观点,大约40个字。那么如何具体规划每一个段落呢?

开头段

开头段主要用以下几种方法来组织,即背景法(Background)、 争议法(Controversy)、提问法(Question)、故事法(Story)和引言法(Quotation)。

以背景法为例。背景法一般会提出一种普遍的或值得关注的现象作为背景或者是由远到近,由大到小地谈论紧扣论题的社会观点作为背景。背景法开头段的结构通常如下:背景(1-3句)+论题+反方观点+(反方理由)+过度+(正方观点)+作者的观点+作者的理由。以独立写作试题为例:Technology makes people's lives more complicated. 题目涉及到了现今社会比较热门的话题---科技。这样,我们就可以以这种社会比较关注的现象作为我们作文的开头背景。因此这个题目的首段就可以这样开始:Technology has had tremendous impacts on every aspect of modern life. However, people are having conflicting opinions about whether it has made people's lives more complicated or not. I believe technology has by and large made our lives more convenient.第一句话就是一句紧贴社会的背景,这样写不但很容易打开考生自己的思路,抓住作文的焦点,还能引起考官的共鸣。

中间段落

中间段落的文章结构通常如下:Transitional words + topic sentence + development。如果考生在平时能熟练运用这样的一个结构来展开作文,那么考场上就会凭借这份思维定势来帮助自己抓住每一分。中间三个段落都可以套用这种模式。

Transitional words主要有以下三种,即表顺序:firstly, secondly, finally (last but not least);表并列:besides, in addition;表对比:in contrast, in comparison。这些衔接词会让文章看起来脉络清晰,组织严密,也就做到了评分标准中的“well-organized”一条。

主题句,顾名思义,向考官展示的是考生作文的主要意旨所以它在中间段落中的作用是至关重要的。通常主题句应该注意一下几点:

1.主题句必须是陈述句。有的考生想在写作中创新,于是采用反问句或者其他看似多样化的题目,然而这种多样性带来的后果是给考官观点不明确的印象,很自然地会影响到分数。

2.必须表明观点。如果考生把一句无关痛痒的话放在主题句的位置上,很显然无法表明自身观点。比如像“今天是晴天”这样的话没有表明观点;然而 “今天是个好天气”就包含一种感情色彩在里面,给人一种立场明确的感觉。考生应该切记:没有反驳余地的就不可以作为主题句。

3.态度必须坚决。但是不能极端。

4.每段必须有主题句,理论上讲没有主题句是可以的,但是考场上不可以,没有主题就会浪费考官的时间去帮你总结主题,然而繁忙的考官是不会那么善良地去分析你的题目来抓取你的观点的。

至于中间段落的展开(development)则需要大家学习积累一些常用的段落展开方法,比如举例法、比较法、因果法等。

结尾

文章结尾段落虽然并不像开头和中间段落那样重要,然而没有结尾的文章是不完整的,不符合基本写作要求。所以考生在考场上一定要在结尾处再次声明自己观点(restatement), 或者提出新的希望,或者提出解决问题的方案,从而让考官有一种善始善终的良好印象。如果考生能做到以上几点,那么我们的作文构思就是比较成功了。

以上就是对新托福写作进行规划的技巧,想要在托福考试当中写出优秀的文章,就需要考虑周全才能开始。文章的思维逻辑至关重要,大家一定要理清思路。最后希望大家都能够取得理想的成绩。

托福写作高分需要注意文章结构

在托福高分文章中,考生可以发现,他们的文章结构都是非常的对仗的。这也是考生经常会忽略的一个部分。

在托福考试的官方指南中明确提到,出题方希望考生能够在开始作文前,重读阅读文章并通过和听力笔记的对比,完成一份简单的提纲性材料。(Before you start writing, briefly reread the passage, consult your notes, and make a very brief outline of the points you wish to make.)

因此,我们很清楚的能够看出,出题方对于考生提出的第一个最基本的要求是希望考生能够给出的是一篇结构清晰和合理的作文,而这一点在之后的范文分析上能够更清楚的得到肯定,在“指南”所给出的五分范文的评价中,很明确的表示了对于工整和清晰的文章结构的赞赏。(The writer is very specific and has organized his points so that they are parallel with one another: in each of the supporting paragraphs, the lecturer’s observation of what really happened is given first, then explicitly connected to a theoretical point from the reading.)

不少考生对这种对仗式的文章嗤之以鼻,不以为然,认为这种“八股”文章没有任何新意,没有特点。但是恰恰是文章结构则在托福考官眼中明确的体现了考生思路的清晰,所以才会得到高分。

考生如果想在托福写作中的到高分,那么就不要注意文章的结构是完整,清晰。这对写作者有一定的功底要求,但同时也是训练自己逻辑思维能力的重要方式。

托福写作评判标准之文章结构

考生如果在考前对写作的提问方式多做一些研究,就会发现他们都是有一定的规律的,考官比较喜欢靠结构安排这样的文章结构。

新托福独立写作一共有3个评分标准:如何展开论点,如何组织结构以及如何运用语言表达观点。

语言的表达是项相对较耗时的任务,不是一朝一夕即可掌握的,因此急需考生的长期酝酿;而如何展开论点,相对应其实与如何运用语言是相辅相成的,同样是需要时间。中国考生写作分数不高并不是因为不知道说什么理由,而是不知道如何用英语恰当的表达自己的中文思路。因此这3个评分标准中最有技巧最易提升的便是第二个:如何组织结构。

第一,连接词过渡句

任何形式的英语文章中都应该具备一定量的连接词(路标词),因为它们是有助于读者顺利阅读的“导航坐标”;大多数考生在备考时也的确会准备一系列此类连接词,用于文章每个段落的段首;包括有表示“第一,第二,第三”等的连接词。但是单纯有段首连接词还不足以支撑全文的结构,因此考生应该同时准备段中连接词,包括“比如说,因为,但是,相对比而言”等,粗略估计,全文完成下来可以达到15个以上的路标词,不仅承接了全文,结构清晰明了,而且也为时间紧张下的写作减轻了不少字数压力。以下为常用连接词:

1, 第一:in the first place/ first and foremost/ to start with/ to begin with/ first of all/ first/ firstly

2, 第二:in the second place/ secondly and equal importantly/ to continue/ second/ secondly

3, 第三:in the third place/ last but not least/ third/ thirdly

4, 一方面、另一方面:on one hand/ on the other hand; for one thing/ for another

5     表原因:because/ because of/ since/ due to/ as/ thanks to/ for/ owing to

6, 表结果:so/ therefore/ as a result/ consequently/ as a consequence

7, 表举例:for example/ for instance/ such as/ take…as an example/ to illustrate

8, 表承接:besides/ furthermore/ moreover/ what’s more/ in addition/ additionally

9, 表转折:but/ while/ however/ nevertheless/ nonetheless

10,表比较对比: to compare with/ compared with/ in comparison with/ by contrast/ on the contrary

当然,仅仅依靠连接词是不足以表明全文的连贯性的,适当的添加过渡句也是很好的承接手段,如Official Guide To The New TOEFL P263中有一篇关于DISHONESTY KILLS RELIABILITY 的5分范文中就有出现多处明显的段落过渡句,如第三段首“After stating that everyone’s opinion can be different about this, for me honesty, in other words, always telling…”用来承接上下两段,以引出自己的观点看法;第五段首“Although I would like to see altruistic, understanding, thoughtful and loyal behavior from people, an instance of the opposite…”等都明显具备良好的过渡功能,让全文更加流畅舒服,朗朗上口。

第二,内在论证统一

Official Guide To The New TOEFL这一官方指南中也明确在写作部分提到“但要知道,仅仅使用第一,第二这样的连接词并不能保证作文结构的严谨,还要注意让所有的观点与文章的主题相关,紧扣中心思想。换句话说,作文要有统一性,评分原则中提到的统一性,渐进性和连贯性这些都是评估作文结构是否严谨,读者能否比较容易地跟上作者思路的标准。”通过上段叙述,我们不难发现作文论证统一性的重要性。

而事实上这也正是被许多考生所忽略的问题。在拿到试题后,考生们不是先腾出时间构思结构框架,而是急着抓住哪怕是一分钟的时间动笔写作,其实如此的选择是要不得的,新通海外考试研究中心强烈建议各位考生在考试时不要舍不得这准备的时间,正所谓“磨刀不误砍柴功”;因为只有当你事先构思好而不是边想边写,你才能真正做到论证内容的一致性,观点与论据的统一性,也才能真正取得高分。另外,用最直白的作答应对题目的提问,用单边的手段安排整篇文章成5段的总分总思路是十分适用的。

考生在备考写作的时候,可以多做一些这种类型的题目,并适当的做些准备,比如背诵一些连接方式,多在逻辑上把握自己的文章等等。
