2013考研英語寫作應急策略綜述
一、換用籠統詞
詞大體可分為兩類:籠統詞和具體詞。籠統詞的特點在于意義廣泛、搭配性強。雖然它們獨自不能精確表達一個動作,但在構成詞組以后可替代很多具體詞。寫作中遇到一些具體詞寫不出來的時候,用籠統詞取代,能收到異曲同工之妙。最常用的籠統詞有 have,take等。
例:邁克經歷了一個極其艱苦的時代。Mike experienced a terrible hard time.寫作時,若忘記了experience可用籠統詞have代替,寫成Mike had a terrible hard time.同樣能收到預期效果。這樣的例子還很多。如:
Do you understand my meaning, sir? = Do you take my meaning, sir?
I will preside over the meeting. = I will take the meeting.
I will subscribe to the local newspaper. = I will take the local newspaper.
They occupied the city. = They took the city.
The boy resembles his father. = The boy takes after his father.
從以上的例句不難看出,具體詞音節較多,使用頻率不高,容易遺忘,而籠統詞則不然。因此,在作文應試中,籠統詞取代具體詞,不失為一種應急良策。
二、換用同義詞、反義詞等相關詞匯
遇到未曾學過的詞或一時想不起的詞時,可采用發散性思維,發揮想象力,盡可能想出與之有關的同義詞、反義詞,利用語言的內在聯系、多層次、多角度地運用語言,使單詞受阻現象得以解決。
例:昨晚李雷做了一場惡夢。
Li Lei had a nightmare last night.因nightmare使用率不高,不易記住。但其同義詞bad dream易記。上句可換譯為: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.
另外:
He is stupid. = He is foolish. = He is a fool. = He is silly.
The food is delicious. = The food is tasty. = The food is nice to eat.
They discontinued the work at five. = They stopped the work at five.
His temper is nasty. = His temper is terrible. = He has a bad temper.
英語語言中詞與詞之間是有聯系的,詞與詞之間語義的“共核”現象即所謂的同義詞。豐富的同義詞給我們提供了極大的方便。
同樣,用其反義詞來取代某一遺忘了的詞也是可行的,請看下面的例子:
He is stubborn. = He is not tame.
The knife is blunt. = The knife is not sharp.
This is expensive. = This is not cheap.
She is talkative. = She is never quiet.
三、換用迂回表達
當一個詞或某些信息表達起來有困難時,要充分利用語言本身詞匯豐富、句型多變等特點,進行迂回表達。因為任何一種表達形式,只要能達意便可接受。英語當中多功能解釋性語句,就可以起到這一作用。請看下面的句子:
例:1. 我從未見到過這樣頑固的人。
I've never seen such a stubborn person.=I've never seen such a person who never listens to other's advice.
2. 如果我們想得到文憑,我們必須首先通過考試。
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. 工廠里的煙囪(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. 他數學考試取得優異成績,被大學錄取了。
He passed the maths exam /succeeded in the maths exam and became a college student.
5. 中午我們吃了野餐。
At noon we had a picnic.=At noon we had our lunch in the open air.
解釋性語句能幫助我們巧妙地避開一些大詞,難詞,又能使意思表達流暢,不失為一聰明之舉。比較下面兩篇文章:
(1)
Examination is a common headache to students all over the world. They all detest is, but all being domineered by it. It represents a trial; the grade its verdict.
Nowadays, examination has become a popular form of testing. It almost can dominate one‘s future. I am not exaggerating; for you all know it is true. If we want to obtain a diploma, we must first pass the exams. If we do not have a diploma, we may not find a job easily. That is the reason why all students are nervous and pale when they are sitting for an important examination which may concern their future.
But as long as examination is on its peak of power, we must be philosophical of it. Do not always think of the harm that it brings, but think of the good it may do to us. If we do not have exams, we may indulge ourselves in other things instead of books. Exams have to always drive us on. What is wrong for learning more and thoroughly?

Examination is a common headache to students all over the world. They all dislike it (hate it), but all being ruled by it. It is a trial; the grade its decision.
Nowadays, examination has become a popular form of testing. It almost can control one‘s future. I am telling the truth, for you all know it is true. If we want to get a graduation paper, we may not find a job easily. That is the reason why all students are nervous and pale when they are sitting for an important examination which may have something to do with their future.
But as long as examination is on its highest point of power, we must have a calm attitude to it. Do not always think of the harm that it brings, but think of the good it may do to us. If we do not have exams, we may spend our time on other things instead of books. Exams have to always drive us on. What is wrong for learning more and deeply?
比較兩篇文章,第一篇短小精干,用詞準確,不失為一篇優秀作文。而第二篇全篇采用最普通的詞匯,意思同樣清楚,也不失得體,流暢。
考研英語作文只要層次清晰,語法正確就能拿到較好的分數。所以同學們如果過于糾結于用一些自己難于掌握的大詞和難詞,往往花了時間,還得不到應有的效果。我們應該靈活地使用一些簡單易掌握的表達方式傳達我們豐富多彩的內容,以便最大限度地發揮我們的英語水平。希望同學們放送心態,掌握技巧,穩拿寫作高分!
