当我们在做雅思写作书面表达时,我们常常会碰到这种情况:一个意思往往因一个单词不会而表达不清;一个好的句子因一个单词想不起来而不能完成。面对这种情况,同学们该如何应对呢?
一、换用笼统词
词大体可分为两类:笼统词和具体词。笼统词的特点在于意义广泛、搭配性强。虽然它们独自不能准确的表达一个动作,但在构成词组以后可替代很多具体词。
写作中遇到一些具体词写不出来的时候,用笼统词取代,能收到异曲同工之妙。常用的笼统词有 have,take 等。
例:迈克经历了一个极其艰苦的时代。Mike experienced a terrible hard time.写作时,若忘记了 experience 可用笼统词 have 代替,写成 Mike had a terrible hard time.同样能收到预期效果。
再看几例:Are you married?= Do you have a wife /husband?
Do you understand my meaning?=Do you take my meaning?
She will subscribe(订阅)to China To-day.=She will take China To-day.
二、换用同义词、反义词
遇到未曾学过的词或一时想不起的词时,可采用发散性思维,发挥想象力,尽可能想出与之有关的同义词、反义词,利用语言的内在联系、多层次、多角度地运用语言,使单词受阻现象得以解决。
例:昨晚李雷做了一场恶梦。
Li Lei had a nightmare last night.因 nightmare 使用率不高,不易记住。但其同义词 bad dream 易记。上句可换译为:Li Lei had a bad dream last night.
再如:The food is tasty.=The food is nice toeat.=The food is delicious.
We discontinued the work at nine.=We stopped the work at nine.
This woman is talkative.=This woman is never quiet.
This car is expensive.=This car is not cheap.
三、换用迂回表达
当一个词或某些信息表达起来有困难时,要充分利用语言本身词汇丰富、句型多变等特点,进行迂回表达。因为任何一种表达形式,只要能达意便可接受。请仔细观察划线部分词语,看看是如何迂回表达的。
1.我从未见到过这样顽固的人。
I've never seen such a stubborn person.=I've never seen such a person who never listens to other's advice.
2.如果我们想得到文凭,我们必须首先通过考试。
If we want to obtain a diploma,we must first pass the exams.=If we want to get a graduation paper,we must first pass the exams.
3.工厂里的烟囱(chimney)拔地而起。
High chimneys have appeared in the factories.=The factories are full of high chimneys.=A lot of high chimneys can be seen in the factories.
4.他数学考试取得优异成绩,被大学录取了。
He passed the maths exam /succeeded in the maths exam and became a college student.
5.中午我们吃了野餐。
At noon we had a picnic.=At noon we had our lunch in the open air.
经过上面的学习,同学们知道在雅思写作书面表达的时候,如果遇到词语忘记或者是不会的时候,怎么使用其他词语进行应急了吗?
