(单词翻译:单击)

首先,summarize,也就是概括阅读和听力文章的主要内容和各三个分论点。这其实就是Introduction要写的内容,掌握了概括,第一段就不成问题咯!

其次,Paraphrase,也就是改写。掌握好了改写句子,你写起文章来将会感觉到如鱼得水,游刃有余。 改写其实主要有下面的两种方法:

第一,使用不同的词汇

a.使用同义词,比如以下的一些写作高频词汇的同义词,你一定要掌握,出现的尤为频繁。
  
important→essential, crucial, vital, significant,
  
think→claim, believe, consider, deem, figure out
  
nowadays→currently, at present, now, recently, in recent years,these days

b.改变词性,这是一种稍微难一些的方法,要求你的语法基础非常好,你才能灵活自如的运用。
  
n. → v.
  
Eg:When we look at a comparison between Aand B…
  
When we compare A and B…
  
Adj. → n.
  
There are a variety of solutions to the problem.
  
There are various solutions to the problem.

c.使用不同的承接词。承接词在文章当中的使用相当频繁,不仅是段落和段落的连接,还包括句子和句子的连接。背住一些常用的承接词比你的改写将会有极大的作用。
  
because of → due to, owing to, because, as, since, for
  
but → however, nevertheless, nonetheless, whereas
  
so→ therefore, hence, thus, consequently

d.形容词的逆向表达。在某些形容词上进行修改,会达到非比寻常的效果。
  
Eg: not as easyas…→more difficult than…
  
Not uncommon→common
  
Thecheapest → the least expensive

第二,使用不同的句型

a. 改变词序。这是非常简单的一种方法,完全不用动脑筋就可以进行改写。常常将句子中的状语(包括状语从句)换位置。
  
Eg: For manyyears, people have believed ….
  
→People believed… for many years.
  
After this programs has been solved, work on … can continue.

b. 主动语态和被动语态的互相替换Eg: Trained scientists performed this research.
  
→This research was performed by trained scientists.

c. 使用“there be” 句型,可以将一个简单句,马上变成一个加入定语从句或者分词的复杂句。Eg: Severalcomputer programs can be used to solve this problem.
  
→There areseveral computer programs that can be used to solve this problem.或There areseveral computer programs used to solve this problem.

d.定语从句,分词和插入语的互相替换
  
Eg: Study…, conducted by sociologists in 2004,shows that…
  
→Study…, which was conducted by sociologists in 2004,shows that…
  
Eg: This…, which is one of the most powerful … in theworld, has…
  
→This…, one of the most powerful… in the world, has…

Cite即引用。综合写作乃客观写作,只是一个旁观者的角度对这两篇文章的内容进行描述,因此,某观点是出自哪篇文章一定要说清楚。所以,下面的这些句型在综合写作中必不可缺。

a.According to+noun.
  
Eg: According to thepassage/lecture/author/professor,…

b.Subject+verbs of reporting+that clause
  
Eg: The authortells/reports/suggests/explains/says/argues/states/indicates/claims/pointsout/thinks/believes that…
  
或The speakeragrees/disagrees/rejects/disputes/challenges/takes a different view….

c.As is indicated/displayed/illustrated in thepassage/lecture,...

Synthesize即连接。具体来讲,就是承接词的使用是相当重要的,将文章当中的重要信息连接起来,体现作者对于两篇文章的理解正确,说明作者的思路清楚。由于综合写作是对两篇文章的比较,所以下面表对比和递进的承接词使用的最频繁。

a.Transitional words showing contrast: however, on the other hand,in contrast, on the contrary

b.Transitional words showingaddition: moreover, furthermore, in addition, besides, as well

现在,是不是感觉清晰很多了呢?也没有那么惧怕综合写作了呢?相信只要你掌握了上述四大技巧,综合写作对你来说将不再是个难以跨越的关口。
