For Team Clover:

1.寄托ID:taotaole
2.具体的机考时间和地点:3.15 Beijing

3.评估下目前自己所处的水平,列出是否满足申请要求里面的几条内容
   1)英语专业 TEM4 已过
   2)已经了解什么是argu,什么是issuearguissue题库至少看过一遍,intro也读过一遍(是的)
  3)对于语法,不会出现低级错误,即可以写出流畅的句子;对于单词拼写,不会总是有混淆,不会总是因为词汇量太低而不知如何是好。(是的)

   6)红宝至少要过了一遍看过背过杨鹏难句的优先考虑。(只是还不是很熟,现在还在继续抓紧)
4.自己以后可以为AW和笔试付出多少 Try my best and spare no effort.
5.写一段100-200的英语。任意写什么。(自己一篇literary analysis 的一段)

Finally, as for their similarity, both writers apply some concrete subjects to show the abstract relationship between music and emotions. Katherine Mansfield chooses the lyrics of the song to show the mutual influence. In her initial depressed phase, the lyrics “‘Fade the Roses of Pleasure’ ” reminds Miss Meadows of how her fiancé “[wore] a rose” on an
earlier occasion, then she falls into a sad memory. In addition, when she sees the telegram and becomes happy, she changes to a pleasant song with word “Congratulate” to show her joyful feeling. Similarly, Edna St. Vincent Millay uses concrete images like
“The tranquil blossom on the tortured stem” and “Music my rampart” to show her adoration for the music, but “limbs a-sprawl and empty faces pale” and “Sleep like the scullions” to indicate her abhorrence of vulgar mankind. Through these concrete subjects, we can understand the abstruse relationship better in both works.

1# taotaole
开始做作业了,虽然报名帖还未得到回复……
关于【FUNDAMENTL COURSE OF WRITING】之1,2,3,4,5 &6的feedback.--天气太冷,打字手指都僵硬了!
NO.1---20 Questions for Writers
感觉归纳的很好,让我联想起写作课了expository & argumentative essay的instructions. 但从AW的角度来看,对于issue实践的时候是不是还是从建议的若干的角度来展开论证和释例就sufficient了呢?After all, 20Q 对思路拓展是极有意义的。
NO.2---coping with writing anxiety
很无奈的说,作为一个成天不得不面对英文的学生而言,写作焦虑不是来自于开始,而是how to get a better mark。写作课的essay 都有2draft.但是每次外教在D1批注下来改D2的时候,最是纠结要how to improve and revise.以至于焦虑无从下手,最主要是在内容里理解方面……而非语言本身。即使在office time 之后,还是会痛苦,把自己的想法完全改掉,无奈要succumb to the reader and grader. 只是会强烈感到,语言作为思想的载体却被世俗的制度给禁锢了。
NO.3---writer's block--挑了两个自己可能的毛病

Symptom

You have chosen or been assigned a topic which bores you....

Possible Cures    我的方法是使自己对它产生兴趣,觉得自己是impartial to any ideas as long as it is reasonable.然后找相关的资料更了解它,分析透了就肯定会有观点来展开论证分析了。

  • Choose a particular aspect of the topic you are interested in (if the writing situation will allow it...i.e. if the goal of your writing can be adjusted and is not given to you specifically, or if the teacher or project coordinator will allow it)
  • Talk to a tutor about how you can personalize a topic to make it more interesting

Symptom

You're self-conscious about your writing, you may have trouble getting started. So, if you're preoccupied with the idea that you have to write about a subject and feel you probably won't express yourself well...

Possible Cures 这个我也有遇到过,特别是在准备一两千的大作文的时候,一脑子的想法不知从何下手。这时候就用的下一话题里的准备方法了,记得一个很厉害的写作老师也教过的,做思维导图(mind map--下一个话题里详说),然后这样已整理,观点的主次马上就出来了,接下来有了大致的outline,作文写也就是胸有成竹的事了。

  • Talk over the subject with a friend or tutor.
  • assure yourself that the first draft doesn't have to be a work of genius, it is something to work with.
  • Force yourself to write down something, however poorly worded, that approximates your thought (you can revise this later) and go on with the next idea.
  • Break the task up into steps. Meet the general purpose first, and then flesh out the more specific aspects later.
  • Try one of the strategies on the next page of this resource.
NO.4---start to write----结合推荐的方法和自己经历的总结
据外教发的handout里推荐的两个方法,就是brainstorming & mind map.觉得帖子里的内容归纳下也是这样的。自己对mind map 比较有感触,在这里多说点。 mind map 的其实是一套思维体系,可以运用到生活的方方面面,其实有一套书关于怎样使用它的,给个链接:http://www.buzanworld.com/Mind_Maps.htm----这个其实和第五讲里的planning visually相关,感觉用手绘效果会更好。【Use a drawing or painting program to do some visual planning. To do some clustering, put a topic word or phrase in a circle in the middle of the page and then surround that circle with clusters of related ideas (also in circles). Use lines to connect these ideas to the main idea or to other sub-ideas. To try branching, another visual planning strategy, put the main idea at the top of the page and then list sub-ideas underneath the main idea with related points for each sub-idea branching off.】
写作老师当年在第一次上课就推荐我们用这个方法来更好的进行写作,自己用着确实很管用的。特别是脑子里想法一堆没有逻辑次序无法开始下手的时候,通过联接把观点列出来,从图像上直观展示了观点的联系,比brainstorm更有条理。然后完成之后通过比较一级拓展枝干的重要性或相关性筛选排序,就能一步步把outline 做好了。
NO.5--writing with computers
很多小技巧,因为经常要在电脑上写英文的缘故,很多已经是不知不觉的在用了,当然也有些新发现,以后可以好好实践。再就是发现自己打字速度好像跟不上想的,这方面要好好加强!
NO.6----thesis statement
感觉重温了当年学习thesis statement中的要点,而且文档里好些例句都跟教材一样……不过还是有启发,想起昨晚看的一篇issue 6分范文,觉得在以转折句建立T上可以多加尝试。然后提供的一些方法如用compare/contrast; cause/effect方面着手思维的可以多实践。
这部分先到这吧,看完ECONOMIST,再继续写篇……不过好像还没太明白是怎么个写法。还求组长指导啊!
