剩下写作和口语都是我的死穴,准备的时间也很少,6和6.5都是我之前考过的歌词中出现过最高分,考前YY了一下要是能再次出现就好了,果然梦想成真~~
口语真心没准备,考完其他的那个下午背了几个topic,刚好就命中了,这项要多谢bobo同学分享的材料。我是考试那天第一个考的,估计有beginner luck,考的时候好多时态说错了……考完考官祝我have a nice day and good luck! 听完就慌了,是安慰还是暗示???心想这个住院其实取决于你呀!
写作小作文看雅思哥预测了pie chart,map和流程图,考前一天看了几篇范文。大作文这次终于是写完了,练的时候一篇作文能写2-3个小时……虽然最后一段用小学水平写的,不过字数够了,中间有一段觉得跑题了,但是report可能对于跑题的界定不能严格吧。写作要多谢xpp同学帮我各种分析思路~虽然还是很低,但我不奢求,6应该够了。
When you read the topic, write down the first two or three things that pop to your mind.
They don't have to be directly linked, but, when you start writing, they will push your mind to think of arguments.
In relation to one of the examples above, if you have the question on whether or not children should be made to take additional classes/lessons on Saturdays or left on their own to decide what to do, you may jot down: I hated violin.
English grades were good.
Kate went to movies.
When you begin to write your paper, you can use these to make arguments.
I hated violin can be seen in several ways: you hated it, but by being forced to take lessons you are now an excellent player OR you hated it, rarely practiced, and won't go near one now.
My English grades were good. You can say: by studying with a tutor every Saturday and spending extra time each night reading books, my English skills continuously developed to the point that, when I was 10, I could speak conversational English with a native English speaker and read classic books.
OR My English grades were good, so I don't know why I had to spend my Saturdays doing additional lessons. I was the best in the class, but it seems like my parents punished me for it by keeping me inside each weekend.
Kate went to the movies: Kate was allowed to freely choose how to use her time and she did so by going to pop-culture movies or concerts. Her grades were only average, and she had to study for hours each night.
OR Kate spent extra time each evening studying, so she did not lose any academic standing by choosing to spend her Saturdays shopping at the mall or going to movies. I made her tell me about each one, and I could pretend I was there.
So, you see, often when you write down what you perceive to be random thoughts, you are actually laying the foundation for your essay.
Sometimes long phrases (sentences) are difficult to read. Try to make things as clear as possible while still writing sentences that are on a difficulty level you feel comfortable with.
Remember to be concise. Concise does not mean short and simple; concise means no repetition, no redundancy, and no dramatic or flowery language. If you finish writing and find out you have not met the word requirement, put more detail into your summary or introduction. Those are both places where students tend to offer as little information as possible.
