備考GRE考試寫作部分,是應該通過一些有效的練習方法來提高的。為此本站小編為大家帶來GRE考試寫作的有效的練習方法。

GRE考試寫作的有效練習方法

  GRE考試寫作的練習方法

1.寫作不能只看自己的,必須要研究GRE寫作範文,尤其是5分和6分的範文,這樣做真的非常重要,因為那是最權威的輔導資料!當然,我們所說的不是簡單的熟讀和背誦,而是逐字逐句的體會文章的精彩之處,比如說句型詞彙。還有提醒一點,ETS對範文的評論也都非常精彩,建議大家抽出時間來看看,著對理解作文得寫法十分有好處。

2.俗話說的好,孰能生巧,所以必須要熟練,重要的是形成慣性思維。同學們都瞭解,GRE考試時間真的是太緊張了,要想現場認真思考每句話的含義真的是太難了,遠遠超過了我們平時的認知水平,只有有充分思維準備的人,才能臨危不懼,運用自如。比如說,題目中提到politics,大腦中就應當出現Franklin Roosevelt, Lincoln, Gerhard Shroeder, Gandhi……; 提到ART,就該想到Rembrandt, Van Gogh, Starry night, night watch, Henmingway, the old man and the sea……; 提到Scandal,就該想到Nixon,watergate,bill clinton,sex sandal,Enran……但是要做到這個地步是非常不容易的,學生不多加練習的話是不可能做到的。

3.中國有句古話說的好,知錯就改,寫作文時,也必須多修改,如果不勤修改自己的GRE作文,就不知道自己原來的'漏洞和不足在哪,只寫不思考,就等於沒寫,有時,寫作本身不重要,在寫作的過程中尋找自己的不足才重要,這樣,你會發現自己一直在進步!

4.他山之石,可以攻玉,學生必須學習別人的文章,對於那些優秀作文,是非常寶貴的學習,參考資料,看別人的文章並且從中探索GRE寫作思路,是提高自己水平的有效途徑。

5.學而不思則罔,因而學生一定要多思考,有這麼個說法,多寫不如多改,多改不如多想,很多看起來難以解決的問題在思考中就能想明白了。

6.學生要看GRE作文中的題庫,不要偷懶,在考試之前找到文章中出現的邏輯錯誤,遠比在半個小時中為它而浪費時間值得的多。

7.學習的過程也是個交流的過程,學生必須多交流,聽聽大家的意見,有益無害。

8.寫作中,學生必須要有自己的例子,閱卷老師並不想看到所有學生的例子都是那幾個,這個需要在平時多積累一些。

  GRE考試寫作的小技巧

1. 語言清楚:

建議:以TOEFL 25分水平的同學做標尺,不要寫大長從句,一個句子就一個從句,它恰好能夠體現邏輯,但又不難寫,再多了就可能寫得讀者看不懂。

2. 思維批判:

這是最重要的。這裡我無意長篇介紹什麼是批判性思維,大家只要記住做到如下的事情。拿到一篇文章,無論是否同意這個話題,都一定要站在支持者和反對者的角度去分別考慮各自可能給出的理由。任何一篇文章,前半段我都會去寫支持者可能會給出什麼理由,而後半段我都會去寫反對者可能會給出什麼理由。給出這些理由,不代表我會同意,但表明了我能夠站在客觀角度上分析問題。基於這些理由,以及我對這些理由的認可度,我最終形成觀點

3. 有證據支援:

這一條是最可以變通的。如果目標5分以上,則選擇的證據要精當。但根據官方指南的例子,如果目標是4分,只要我們記住,每一條理由後面好歹給出一兩個證據,可以是例子,可以是更多的理由支援,不需要充分,不需要去大量準備素材,有能說得過去的支援就可以達到4分。對比3分,3分的一大問題就是,要麼沒證據,要麼證據完全不相關。這其實是很容易避免的,但也是中國同學得3分的一大原因,因為我們習慣於說大話,習慣於一個段落內都是告訴讀者一個建議多麼好,但卻沒有解釋為什麼好。

補充說明,這裡介紹的寫作思路對於想要寫5分以上的同學是一樣的,能夠寫得更高就在於給出的證據更充分,更深刻。

4. 結構合理:

如果同學們按照先前的行文方式,則這條標準很容易做到。

我對寫作的講解就到此為止,最後補充一句,這些issue話題的觀點非個人觀點,只是用來應付考試的,大家千萬不要把issue考試變成了對真理的追求,這是沒有意義的,至少對GRE考試來說。

  GRE考試寫作的練習題

Most people often look for similarities, even between very different things, and even when it it is unhelpful or harmful to do so. Instead, a thing should be considered on its own terms: we should avoid the tendency to compare it to something else.

人們總是在尋找相同點,即使是在非常不同的事物間也不例外,甚至有時候這樣做是無用乃至有害的。實際上,我們應該具體問題具體分析;我們應該儘量避免比較的傾向。

GRE寫作正文:

In the age of accelerating changes, the eagerness to understand things in an effective and equally efficient way is more than ever. Although all kinds of complex techniques, skills and equipments helpful for understanding and studying the objects are easily accessible to people, the basic strategies stay the same as before: one is starting from similarities and the other from distinction. From my personal point of view, only by using the two in proper proportion and order can one achieve his/her goal to understand a thing.

Looking for similarities is a proper starting point. When we first meet something new,we need to clarify its basic attributes, finding similarites with other familiar things and classify it according to those attributes. Classification according to similaties is of great assistance to provide us with an outline, basic knowledge which we can base further investigation upon. Although things in contemporary age represent themselves in various forms and styles, similarities exist in any pair as long as certain perspective can be found. For instance, Bookcase and window are so different that at first glance, one

may not be able to find the similarities, or even such an effort seems to be meaningless. Yet, they are both part of a house, something that must be taken into consideration when decorating or refurnishing the house. Such a comparison would be helpful for us to realize that “buy” and “sell” are two basic operation we can have upon window even though we have no idea what window is made of, how it is produced or what its function ’s more, looking for similarities not only refer to the object itself, but the relationship with others. Similar relationships helps people understand things in groups or pairs using the strategy: analogy. Analogy is especially useful when the charactertistics of a relationship rather than the objects themselves are the focus of understanding and when similar relationships are known and objects unknown. For example, if told that the relationship between window and ASVE is similar to that between book and read, one can safely guess that ASVE is the operation people can take on window although ASVE stays an unknown action.

Definitely, mere similarity usually exclude the distinctive characteristics of a thing. We need to investigate its own terms for deeper understanding. Within the rough outline sketched by similarity, a more detailed and well-articulated picture can be drawn by grasping own terms of a thing. Still take window as an example. From careful observation, we know that it is transparent, it consists of different chemical materials, it performs the function as to protect privacy, to preserve desirable temperature indoor, and sometimes to prevent rains and snows from going inside. Deeper and further understanding of window can only be gained when we take its own terms besides those it shares with bookcase into consideration.

In the newly development software engineering model named Object-oriented model,the strategy “similarity first and differences later” functions as the core and focus of the whole model. Objects sharing common points are put into same “classes” and common points are processed together, later they are defined, discussed and processed respectively according to their own characteristics. This method greatly reduces the repetive time and energy spent over and over again on similar, if not utterly same, terms. Translated into daily life, starting from similarites for a quick outline and transferring to grasp distinctive characteristics for deeper understanding isthe approach we should always bear in mind when hoping to understand a thing with effectiveness and efficiency.
