Honesty
根據最近的一項統計調查顯示,大學生向老師請假的理由當中78%都是假的。
Travel by Bike
根據最近的一項統計調查顯示,85%的人在近距離旅行的時候首選的交通工具是自行車。

更多經典句型:

結尾萬能公式:
1. 英語四級結尾萬能公式一:如此結論
說完了,畢竟要歸納一番,相信各位都有這樣的經歷,領導長篇大論,到最後終於冒出個「總而言之」之類的話,我們馬上停止開小差,等待領導說結束語。也就是說,開頭很好,也必然要有一個精彩的結尾,讓讀者眼前一亮,這樣,你就可以拿高分了!比如下面的例子:
Obviously(此為過渡短語), we can draw the conclusion that good manners arise from politeness and respect for others.
如果讀者很難「顯而見之」,但說無妨,就當讀者的眼光太淺罷了!
更多過渡短語:
to sum up, in conclusion, in brief, on account of this, thus
更多句型:
Thus, it can be concluded that…, Therefore, we can find that…
2. 英語四級結尾萬能公式二:如此建議
如果說「如此結論」是結尾最沒用的廢話,那麼「如此建議」應該是最有價值的廢話了,因為這里雖然也是廢話,但是卻用了一個很經典的虛擬語氣的句型。拽!
Obviously, it is high time that we took some measures to solve the problem.
這里的虛擬語氣用得很經典,因為考官本來經常考這個句型,而如果我們自己寫出來,你說考官會怎麼想呢?
更多句型:
Accordingly, I recommend that some measures be taken.
Consequently, to solve the problem, some measures should be taken.

閱卷老師在語言方面主要從兩個方面進行評判:
1、基本正確
四、六級考生的最大問題不是寫得太簡單,而是嚴重錯誤太多。基礎一般的同學即使使用小學或中學詞彙和句型,只要使用得基本正確,也可以得到及格分數。考生最常犯的語言錯誤有三類:語法、拼寫、標點。最常犯的語法錯誤包括:時態、冠詞、主謂一致、名詞單復數等。
2、豐富多變
基礎較好的同學,要想取得四、六級寫作高分,應做到豐富多變。豐富多變體現在詞彙和句型兩方面。同一詞語在一句話、一個段落乃至一篇文章中最好不要重復出現,應盡量使用同、近義詞替換(無法替換的關鍵詞除外)。例如:think可以替換為reckon, assume, argue等詞。如果想不到同、近義詞,可以使用上義詞進行替換。此外,句型也應富於變化,不要拘泥於主謂賓句型,可以使用主系表、過去分詞和現在分詞短語作狀語、不定式短語作狀語、狀語從句等多種句型。
四級作文如果量化成句數,只需寫10句左右;六級只需12句左右。全文應以短句為主,長短句相結合。所謂短句是指10個詞左右的句子,不能全篇都是5、6個詞的短句。同時,全文應有一定數量的長句,一般15~20詞即可,太長則易冗贅。有的同學以為只寫長句不寫短句,就能取得高分,實際上老師看長句會覺得很累,以為你不會寫短句,通常不會給高分。如果一篇中文作文每句都30多個字,定然晦澀難懂,英文也不例外。精煉的短句可以放在段首表示強調;復雜的長句可以進行具體的論證、舉例或描述。
二、高 分 真 經
(一)背誦
背誦是提高英語綜合能力的法寶,可分為以下5個層次:(1)精彩詞彙,(2)精彩句型,(3)精彩句子,(4)萬能框架,(5)經典範文。注意句子和句型不一樣,精彩句子應作為單詞來記憶。背誦前,確保自己已充分理解所有內容。
語言學習有兩個關鍵詞——輸入(INPUT)和輸出(OUTPUT)。聽力和閱讀屬於輸入,考生處於被動狀態,只需在考場上將聽到和看到的東西弄懂。應對這種題目的技巧很多,容易在短期內提高。但口語和寫作屬於輸出,考生必須變被動為主動,這很難在短期內突破。沒有大量的輸入,很難進行自由輸出。
四、六級寫作需要在30分鍾內完成一篇短文,共計120或150餘字,很多同學叫苦不迭。但若將其改為中文作文,大家就會覺得易如反掌。原因何在?俗話說:「熟讀唐詩三百首,不會做詩也能吟。」同學們從小到大背誦了大量中文佳作,可以隨意組合,自由輸出。然而,在英語學習中,多數同學只沉溺於背單詞、摳語法、做閱讀,很少有人背誦英文文章。正因為沒有大量輸入,寫作才始終處於「擠牙膏」狀態,想一句說一句,說一句翻譯一句。
提高英語寫作要多讀、多背、多寫、多改。多讀、多背是首要任務,是積累輸入的關鍵。考生應大量積累經典英文句型、表達和範文,平時勤於背誦。
有的同學問我,說自己背過很多英文文章,但上了考場還是大腦一片空白,什麼都想不起來。這種情況很常見,主要有兩個原因:一是沒有進行造句的工作,只是盲目背誦。二是背得不夠熟練。學習任何東西都講究先求質,再求量。大家英語學了很多年,文章看了很多,為什麼寫作還是學不好?關鍵是量鋪開了,但質沒有上去。一篇文章應背到脫口而出的程度,如果還需要過腦子,就證明背得不夠熟練。一知半解,背得再多也是徒勞。
(二)默寫
背完經典範文後,進行默寫。然後對照原文糾錯,搞清楚錯在什麼地方。多數同學在寫的時候都會犯小錯誤,如拼寫、單復數、大小寫等。這些就是你在寫作中的弱點,也是閱卷老師最不能容忍的地方。培根說過:「Writing makes an exact man.」(寫作使人精確。)只有默寫下來你才會發現自己常犯哪些錯誤。
(三)中譯英
中譯英也是提高寫作的好方法。根據範文的中文譯文,將其按自己的理解譯成英文。譯完後,你就會發現自己的翻譯和原文有很大差距,這些差距就是取得寫作高分的關鍵。這時,對照範文,看看原作者是怎麼寫的,思考為什麼這么寫。同樣的一句中文,範文中使用了哪些詞彙和句型?你使用了哪些詞彙和句型?學習範文使用不同的詞彙和句型。通過不斷練習,你的寫作水平不知不覺就提高了。
(四)寫作
模仿範文寫作新的文章,套用範文的精彩詞彙、句型、句子和框架。最初套用時可能比較生硬,但隨著不斷的積累,組合起來會越來越順手。
上述的高分策略是提高四、六級英語寫作水平最有效的方法。在練習寫作的初始階段, 可勤查語法書和字典等工具書, 背記常用詞和短語, 以擴大詞彙量, 拓展知識面。背單詞時要深刻理解所背詞語的內在含義, 並了解其使用環境。備考時,熟記一些過渡詞、句型和範文,並進行仿寫。考試時,使用學習過的、熟悉而有把握的詞彙和句型,沒有把握的句子,盡量採取「迴避政策」,切忌自編自造漢語式的英語片語和句型。
