第八剑：换词

此剑属于极难修炼之式，需要配合高级心法，长期练习方能有所成就，时间紧就跳过吧。本剑基本只适合要求有些高的战友。不过不管是谁，有这个意识肯定是好的，说不定考的时候灵感一来就妙口生花，博得rater的好感。这里首先要注意的是，rater期待的理想完美答案不是一定的，但是所有表达都对这 reading和listening材料照本宣科的回答肯定是不会受到rater青睐的。其实不需要你都换，只要在合适的位置小换一下，哪怕就一下，你的这一表现马上就会让rater耳朵一竖，眼睛一亮，在那些完全复述材料的考生中脱颖而出。rater会觉得你有这个能力有机处理输入信息，而不是完全呀呀学语。你换4个或5个对考官来说没有区别，但是你换1个和换0个却有很大区别。

然后要明确哪些该换，哪些不能换。专有名词绝对不能替换；多音节的那种大词（名，形，动），像responsibility, spectacular, misrepresent...一般不要换；比较怪异的非日常生活用语以及被反复强调的也许很常用但是在题中有特殊涵义的词不能换...这些应该都比较好把握。可以换的就是那些通俗常用的义项，表达多用副词，介词，小词，熟词的意义。举个例子，There are more and more people in Shanghai可以换成the population is increasing；A is harmful to B可以换成A brings harm to, A endangers B, A poses a threat to B，B suffers much from A；A enables B to do sth可以换成A makes it possible for B to do sth，B is now able to do sth thanks to/ due to/ because of A......这些变化要能快速反映出来，并非一朝一夕，只有平时多积累才能略有小成。就是熟悉各种句式，语法结构功能，同义词等等。这个过程其实是和写作紧密联系的。平时注意不要让表达单调，有意识多换词表达同一个意思，久而久之就能冰冻三尺了。仍然推荐朗文的那个词典，它右下角有个 activator，表达同一个义项很管用。bt和emule都有下载的。另外，在换词的过程中，注意不要盲目乱换，一定要确保感***彩不变，书面口语体不要混淆，语境要恰当吻合，别让老美觉得我们迂腐不堪。下面我把我自己总结一些常用义项换词贴出来，这些我考试的时候仍然都没用上，换上的是临时蹦出来的一个词。说明，这个短期突破基本上很困难。以下词具体用的时候请先参见辞典，别用的不恰当，否则还不如不换词。

关于笔记和换词练习的材料，选YeeaooBox、DELTA和OG就够了，DELTA的听力速度较快，一直说到自己比较满意为止。3.4.5.6题一定要多练习，做过的题目过几天仍然可以再回头做做，可能每次表达都不一样呢。你可能会发现，同一道题目你隔段时间再说，又会有新的体会，尤其DELTA，很多都是三点要点，有点难，习惯了再做真题应该不会吃亏的。还是那句话，笔记一定要重视练习，但是换词可以不用过多纠缠。
