雅思写作一直是雅思考生需要攻克的难题。那么通关秘笈是什么?很显然,雅思写作模板的时代已经过去了。“英文写作逻辑和衔接”才是那条通往罗马的必经之路。参照雅思发布的评分标准,不难看出雅思对英文写作逻辑的重视:“逻辑与衔接”(Coherence and Cohesion)为四项写作评分原则之一。 以6分的标准为例,写作评分标准中对“逻辑与衔接”是这样描述的: arranges information and ideas coherently and there is a clear overall progression (连贯地组织信息及论点,总体来说,能清晰地推进行文发展); uses cohesive devices effectively, but cohesion within and/or between sentences may be faulty or mechanical (有效地使用衔接手段,但句内及/或句间的衔接有时有误或过于机械) 所谓“清晰的推进行文发展”,至少要做到文章中使用到准确、有效的逻辑连词(logical conjunction) 又名信号词。信号词对于文章过程的连贯起到了作用,它也是英语写作中众多过渡手段之一。雅思写作中常用到的逻辑连词按照分类如下10类: (1)表示递进:and, also, too, in addition, moreover, besides ,furthermore, not only… but also…, along with, next, what’s more. (2)表示时间: after, before, soon, when, until, during, immediately, then. (3)表示举例: for example, for instance, such as, that is, in other words, in fact. (4)表示相同即第二个观点在某些方面和个观点相似:Like, as, similarly, in the some way, as well, too, equally, likewise. (5)表示不同,即观点和我们所期望的观点不同(读者需要对下一句的意思转换做好准备):Unlike, in contrast with\to, whereas, on the contrary, on the other hand, instead, but, however, yet, although, nevertheless, even though, in spite of, despite, rather than.
