雅思考试小作文

　　雅思小作文相对而言比较简单，而有些同学却无法拿到高分，考生在解答这类试题时，可以通过使用一些技巧，帮助自己在考试中获得更高的分数。

　　雅思小作文提分攻略1.解释法。所谓解释法是将图表中出现的名词在不更改词意的前提下换成另外一句话解释出来。我们用下面这个表格题来诠释这个方法。

　　The table illustrates the unemployment rate in the following 5 countries.

　　Unemployment rate 表示失业率，但是我们发现写文章时，避免不了要多次的重复提到失业率这个词。这个时候为了显示我们的语言多样化的能力，就要尽量做一些转换。比如 unemployment rate 是失业率的意思，而失业率可以解释为失去工作的人数的比例或者找不到工作的人。即The proportion of people who lose their jobs 或者the number of people who cannot get a job. 这样一来，不仅避免了重复，而且还加进去一个小小的从句。这种方法我将之称为解释法，即对描述对象做一个详细的解释说明，并取代其称为主语。

　　雅思小作文提分攻略2.补集法。所谓补集法是从与之相反的角度构思。

　　比如 High unemployment rate(高失业率)可以转换成low employment rate (低就业率)

　　或者France took up the second highest unemployment rate in 1985. (法国在1985年有着第二高的失业率)可以转换成 The working situation in France was also not good. (法国的就业状况也不太好)

　　雅思小作文提分攻略3.拟人法。所谓拟人法是将图表中的描述对象赋予一定的生动性。这个方法我们用一个线形图来说明。

　　我们可以参考剑桥雅思7test2中的小作文。大部分学员都知道表示线形图中上升，下降的词汇。描述趋势的句型也都非常熟悉，也看了各种参考书，但是为什么拿不到高分。原因可能是因为语句不够生动，过于平淡。首先我们先来看两个描述线形图的句型。

　　1. The consumption of chicken per person per week increased greatly from about 140grams in 1979 to 250 grams in 2004.

　　2. There was a great increase in the consumption of chicken per person per week from about 140grams in 1979 to 250 grams in 2004.

　　两句话的译文为：鸡肉的消耗(每人每周)从1995年的大约140克大幅度上升到2004年的250克。以上两个句子都是正确的典型的线性图中描述趋势的两个句型。但是却发现非常枯燥无味，而且物以稀为贵，这两种句型由于过于被大家熟悉，所以可能很难受到考官的青睐。我们可以稍微修饰一下。改为 Chicken became increasingly popular with consumers during the pe...

in cool climates special attention is given to the use of building materials that have a high “thermal mass”. insulation is used on the outside of heavy materials such as concrete, brick or adobe. this kind of material stores heat and slowly releases it while external insulation ensures that all heat absorbed by the wall materials is released inside the building. careful positioning of the building and large windows facing winter sunlight also assist to passively heat the house.
the roof has an extreme angle to assist with snow runoff and roof overhang does not interfere with sunlight.

homes in warm climates require the opposite approach. insulation and reflective roof material aims to keep heat from the sun out. windows are placed under a wider roof overhang so that they are shaded from direct light in the day and so that cooler night air can move through the house when the windows are open. construction materials such as wood and steel have low thermal mass and gain and lose heat quickly.
