雅思寫作中,大家不注意時(shí)經(jīng)常會(huì)犯各種小錯(cuò)誤,今天我們就來(lái)看一下有哪些小錯(cuò)誤我們可以避免呢?
仔細(xì)看下面的圖表以及他們的標(biāo)題,圖標(biāo)的下方是描述圖表的句子。
找找看,這些句子有哪些錯(cuò)誤?
From 1975 to 2000, hamburgers increased dramatically from 10 to 100 times per year. At the same time, fish and chips fell significantly to just under 40.
While buses fell from just over 25% to around 16% in 2000, cars increased dramatically to over 35%. Meanwhile, bikes fell over this time frame.
大家有沒(méi)有發(fā)現(xiàn)這兩句話錯(cuò)誤的地方?
在第一句中,hamburgers是不能主動(dòng)增加的,fish and chips也是不能主動(dòng)減少的。第二句也是同樣的道理,car不能主動(dòng)增加, a bus and a bike也是不能主動(dòng)減少的。
那么我們應(yīng)該怎樣描述呢?當(dāng)然是在前面加上consumption(消費(fèi))啦,hamburgers or fish and chips的銷量可以上升或下降。同樣的,第二句我們可以在buses,car,bike前面加上use(使用),這樣句子就說(shuō)得通了。
想要寫出正確的句子有很多方法,其中重要的就是檢查句子的主語(yǔ)是否正確。
From 1975 to 2000, the consumption of hamburgers increased dramatically from 10 to 100 times per year. At the same time, the number of times that fish and chips were eaten fell significantly to just under 40.
While bus usage fell from just over 25% to around 16% in 2000, cars as a mode of travelincreased dramatically to over 35%. Meanwhile, the use of bikes fell over this time frame.
Check your subject
寫作之前,我們應(yīng)該先對(duì)圖表進(jìn)行總結(jié),然后找出句子的主語(yǔ),即我們需要比較什么。
在雅思圖表寫作中,常見(jiàn)的錯(cuò)誤是主語(yǔ)錯(cuò)誤。
第一張圖是有關(guān)快餐消費(fèi)的;
第二張圖是有關(guān)四種交通工具的使用。
如果這兩點(diǎn)理解錯(cuò)誤,寫作中就會(huì)出錯(cuò)。
Practice
下面的幾句話是從雅思圖表寫作中抽出的主語(yǔ)錯(cuò)誤的典型例子,后面的括號(hào)中是卻少的主語(yǔ)。
大家看一看,結(jié)合今天的內(nèi)容,能不能用多種方法把這些句子改正確。
1. Cinema's increased from 2000 to 2005. (attendance)
2. Saudi Arabia fell significantly to 270 million barrels a year. (oil production).
3. 2000 to 2010 saw DVDs drop from 70% to 60%. (purchased).
