西安雅思培训学校教你几招：雅思写作精简之道

雅思写作的要诀在于simple andclear，并不是像很多同学认为的那样，写出高难度的词汇和长难句就能得高分。当然不是说简单明了的写作方式很简单，其实一点都不简单，今天思润教育总结了几点关于雅思写作精简的建议，希望对大家的雅思备考有所帮助。

雅思写作精简建议一：避免空洞的单词和词组

1.一些空洞的单词或词组根本不能为句子带来任何相关或重要的信息，完全可以删掉。

比如：when all things are considered, youngadults of today live more satisfying lives than those of theirparents, in my opinion.

这句话当中的“when all things are considered”和“in myopinion“都显得多余。完全可以去掉。改为：

young adults of today live more satisfying lives thantheir parents.

2.有些空洞和繁琐的表达方式可以进行替换。

例如：due to the fact that our grandparents wereunder an obligation to help their parents, they did not have theoptions that young people have at this point in time.

“due to the factthat”就是一个很典型的繁琐的表达方式的例子，可以替换，简化为下面的表达方式：

because our grandparents were obligated to help theirparents, they did not have the options that young people havenow.

雅思写作精简建议二：避免重复

1.尽量避免重复使用同样的词汇。或者有的时候虽然词汇没有重复，但意思却有重复。这时候可以做一些简化的工作。

例如下面这个例子：the farm my grandfather grew up onwas large in size.

large对一个farm来说就是size方面的large，所以in size可以去掉，改为：

the farm my grandfather grew up on was large.

更简洁的表达方式为：

my grandfather grew up on a large farm.

2.有时一个词组可以用一个更简单的单词来替换。

例如：my grandfather has said over and overagain that he had to work on his parents' farm.

这里的over and overagain就可以改为repeatedly，显得更为简洁：

my grandfather has said repeatedly that he had to work onhis parents' farm.

雅思写作精简建议三：选择zui恰当的语法结构

选择合适的语法结构可以使句子意思的表达更为和简练。虽然语法的多样性也很重要，但选择zui恰当的语法结构仍然是更为重要的考虑因素。以下原则是在考虑选择何种语法结构时可以参考的原则：

1.一个句子的主语和谓语动词应该能够反映句子中zui重要的意思。

例如：the situation that resulted in mygrandfather's not being able to study engineering was that hisfather needed help on the farm.

从意思上来分析，上面这句话需要表达的重要的概念是“grandfather's notbeing able tostudy”，而在表达这个概念时，原句用的主语是situation，谓语动词是was，不能强调需要表达的重点概念，可以改为下面这句话：

my grandfather couldn't study engineering because hisfather needed help on the farm.

2.避免频繁使用“there be”结构。

例如下面的句子：there were 25 cows on the farm thatmy grandfather had to milk every day. it was hard work for mygrandfather.

可以改为：

my grandfather worked hard. he had to milk 25 cows on thefarm every day.

更简洁的句式为：

my grandfather worked hard milking 25 cowsdaily.

3.把从句改为短语或单词。

例如：dairy cows were raised on the farm,whichwas located100 kilometers from the nearest university and was in anarea that was remote.

简介的表达方式为：

the dairy farm was located in aremote area, 100 kilometers to thenearest university.

4.仅在需要强调宾语而不是主语的时候，才使用被动语态。

例如：in the fall, not only did the cowshave to be milked, but also the haywas mowed and stacked by mygrandfather's family.

本句不够简洁的原因是本句的重心应该是“忙碌的家庭-my grandfather'sfamily”，而使用了被动语态後，彷佛重心变成了cows和hay。下面的表达方式是主动语态，相对来说更简洁一些：

in the fall, my grandfather's familynot only milked the cow but alsomowed and stacked the hay.

5.用更为的一个动词来代替动词短语。

例如：my grandfather didn't have timeto stand around doing nothing withhis school friends.

stand around doing nothing其实可以用一个动词来表达，即loiter：

my grandfather didn't have timeto loiter with his schoolfriends.

6.有时两句话的信息经过组合完全可以用一句话来简练地表达。

例如：profits from the farm were notlarge.sometimes they were too small to meet the expenses of runninga farm. they were not sufficient topay for a university degree.

两句话的信息可以合并为下面这句更为简洁的句子：

profits from the farm were sometimestoo small to meet operationalexpenses, let alone pay for a university degree.
