參考文章:

Mammoth Kill

Mammoth is any species of the extinct genus Mammoths, proboscideans commonly equipped with long,curved tusks and in northern species, a covering of long hair. They lived from the Ptiocene epoch from around 5 million years ago,into the Hotocene at about 4,500 years ago,and were members of the family Elephantidae, which contains, along with mammoths, the two genera of modern elephants and their ancestors.

A

Like their modern relatives,mammoths were quite large. The largest known species reached heights in the region of 4m at the shoulder and weights up to 8 tonnes, while exceptionally large males may have exceeded 12 tonnes. However,most species of mammoth were only about as large as a modem. Asian elephant. Both sexes bore tusks. A first, small set appeared at about the age of six months and these were replaced at about 18 months by the permanent set. Growth of the permanent set was at a rate of about 1 to 6 inches per year. Based on studies of their close relatives, the modem elephants, mammoths probably had a gestation period of 22 months, resulting in a single calf being born. Their social structure was probably the same as that of African and Asian elephants, with females living in herds headed by a matriarch, whilst hulls lived solitary lives or formed loose groups after sexual maturity.

B

MEXICO CITY-Although it’s hard to imagine in this age of urban sprawl and auto mobiles. North America once belonged to mammoths,camels,ground sloths as large as cows, bear-size beavers and other formidable beasts. Somel 1,000 years ago,however, these large bodied mammals and others-about 70 species in all-disappeared. Their demise coincided roughly with the arrival of humans in the New World and dramatic climatic change-factors that have inspired several theories about the die-off. Yet despite decades of scientific investigation, the exact cause remains a mystery. Now new findings offer support to one of these controversial hypotheses: that human hunting drove this megafaunal menagerie (巨型動物獸羣)to extinction. The overkill model emerged in the 1960s,when it was put forth by Paul S. Martin of the University of Arizona. Since then, critics have charged that no evidence exists to support the idea that the first Americans hunted to the extent necessary to cause these extinctions. But at the annual meeting of the Society of Vertebrate Paleontology in Mexico City last October, paleo ecologist John Alroy of the University of California at Santa Barbara argued that, in fact, hunting-driven extinction is not only plausible, it was unavoidable. He has determined, using a computer simulation that even a very modest amount of hunting would have wiped these animals out.

C

Assuming an initial human population of 100 people that grew no more than 2 percent annually, Alroy determined that if each band of, say, 50 people killed 15 to 20 large mammals a year, humans could have eliminated the animal populations within 1,000 years. Large mammals in particular would have been vulnerable to the pressure because they have longer gestation periods than smaller mammals and their young require extended care.

D

Not everyone agrees with Alroy’s assessment. For one, the results depend in part on population-size estimates for the extinct animals-figures that are not necessarily reliable. But a more specific criticism comes from mammologist Ross D. E. Mac Phee of the American Museum of Natural History in New York City, who points out that the relevant archaeological record contains barely a dozen examples of stone points embedded in mammoth bones (and none, its hould be noted, are known from other mega faunal remains)-hardly what one might expect if hunting drove these animals to extinction. Furthermore, some of these species had huge ranges the giant Jefferson's ground sloth’ for example, lived as far north as the Yukon and as far south as Mexico which would have made slaughtering them in numbers sufficient to cause their extinction rather implausible, he says.

E

MacPhee agrees that humans most likely brought about these extinctions (as well as others around the world that coincided with human arrival), but not directly. Rather he suggests that people may have introduced hyper lethal disease, perhaps through their dogs or hitchhiking vermin,which then spread wildly among the immunologically naive species of the New World. As in the overkill model, populations of large mammals would have a harder time recovering. Repeated outbreaks of a hyper disease could thus quickly drive them to the point of no return. So far Mac Phee does not have empirical evidence for the hyper disease hypothesis, and it won't be easy to come by: hyper lethal disease would kill far too quickly to leave its signature on the bones themselves. But he hopes that analyses of tissue and DNA from the last mammoths to perish will eventually reveal murderous microbes.

F

The third explanation for what brought on this North American extinction does not involve human, beings. Instead, its proponents blame the loss on the weather. The Pleistocene epoch witnessed considerable climatic instability, explains paleontologist Russell W. Graham of the Denver Museum of Nature and Science. As a result, certain habitats disappeared, and species that had once formed communities split apart. For some animals, this change brought opportunity. For much of the megafauna, however, the increasingly homogeneous environment left them with shrinking geographical ranges-a death sentence for large animals, which need large ranges. Although these creatures managed to maintain viable populations through most of the Pleistocene, the final major fluctuation-the so-called Younger Diyas event pushed them over the edge, Graham says. For his part, Alroy is convinced that human hunters demolished the titans of the Ice Age. The overkill model explains everything the disease and climate scenarios explain, he asserts, and makes accurate predictions about which species would eventually go extinct.“Personally,I’m a vegetarian,” he remarks, “and I find all of this kind of gross 一 bubelievable.”

Passage 2 :

題目:Chinese Yellow Citrus Ant for Biological Control

題型:判斷題+配對題

題目:舊題

類似原文:

Chinese Yellow Citrus Ant for Biological Control

A

In 1476 , the farmers of Berne in Switzerland decided, according to this story, there was only one way to rid their fields of the cutworms(糖蛾)attacking their crops. They took the pests to court. The worms were tried, found guilty and excommunicated by the archbishop (大主教) China, farmers had a more practical approach to pest control. Rather than rely on divine intervention (神學的調停),they put their faith in frogs, ducks and ants. Frogs and ducks were encouraged to snap up (吃下)the pests in the paddies (稻田)and the occasional plague of locusts (蝗蟲) the notion of biological control began with an ant. More specifically, the story says,it started with the predatory yellow citrus (柑橘)ant Oecophylla smaragdina , which has been polishing off (打敗)pests in the orange groves of southern China for at least 1700 years. The yellow citrus ant (黃蟻)is a type of weaver ant, which binds leaves and twigs with silk to form a neat, tent-like nest. In the beginning, farmers made do with the odd ants’nest here and there. But it wasn’t long before growing demand led to the development of a thriving trade in nests and a new type of agriculture—ant fanning.

B Foran insect that bites, the yellow citrus ant is remarkably popular. Even byant standards, Oecophylla smaragdina is a fearsome predator. It’s big, runs fast and has a powerful nip—painful to humans but lethal to many of the insects that plague the orange groves of Guangdong and Guangxi in southern China. And for at least 17 centuries. Chinese orange growers have harnessed these six-legged killing machines to keep their fruit groves healthy and productive. The story explains that citrus fruits evolved in the Far East and the Chinese discovered the delights of their flesh early on. As the ancestral home of oranges, lemons and pomelos, China also has the greatest diversity of citrus pests. And the trees that produce the sweetest fruits,the mandarins—or kan—attract a host of plant-eating insects, from black ants and sap-sucking mealy bugs to leaf-devouring caterpillars (毛毛蟲). With so many enemies, fruit growers clearly had to have some way of protecting their orchards.

C

The West did not discover the Chinese orange growers' secret weapon until the early 20th century. At the time, Florida was suffering an epidemic of citrus canker (相橘潰瘍)and in 1915 Walter Swingle,a plant physiologist working for the US Department of Agriculture, was, the story says, sent to China in search of varieties of orange that were resistant to the disease. Swingle spentsome time studying the citrus orchards around Guangzhou, and there he came across the story of the cultivated ant. These ants, he was told, were “grown”by the people of a small village nearby who sold them to the orange growers by the nestful (—整窩的).

D

The earliest report of citrus ants at work among the orange trees appears in a book on tropical and subtropical botany written by His Han in AD 304. “The people of Chiao-Chih sell in their markets ants in bags of rush matting. The nests are like silk. The bags are all attached to twigs and leaves which, with the ants inside the nests, are for sale. The ants are reddish-yellow in colour, bigger than ordinary ants. In the south if the kan trees do not have this kind of ant, the fruits will all be damaged by many harmful insects, and not a single fruit will be perfect.

E

Initially, farmers relied on nests which they collected from the wild or bought in the market where trade in nests was brisk. ‘It is said that in the south orange trees which are free of ants will have wormy fruits. Therefore the people race to buy nests for their orange trees, ‘wrote Liu Hsun in Strange Things Noted in the South, written about AD 890. The business quickly became more sophisticate. From the 10th century, country people began to trap ants in artificial nests baited with fat. “Fruit growing families buy these ants from vendors who make a business of collecting and selling such creatures, “wrote Chuang Chi-Yu in 1130. “They trap them by filling hogs 'or sheep’s bladders with fat and placing them with the cavities open next to the ants 'nests. They wait until the ants have migrated into the bladders and take them away. This is known as ‘rearing orange ants’. “Fanners attached the bladders to their trees, and in time the ants spread to other trees and built new nests. By the 17th century, growers were building bamboo walkways between their trees to speed the colonization of their orchards. The ants ran along these narrow bridges from one tree to another and established nests “by the hundreds of thousands”.

F

Did it work? The orange growers clearly thought so. One authority, Chi TaChun,writing in 1700,stressed how important it was to keep the fruit trees free of insect pests, especially caterpillars. “It is essential to eliminate them so that the trees are not injured. But hand labour is not nearly as efficient as ant power...”Swingle was just as impressed. Yet despite this reports, many Western biologists were skeptical. In the West, the idea of using one insect to destroy another was new and highly controversial. The first breakthrough had come in 1888,when the infant orange industry in California had been saved from extinction by the Australian vedalia beetle. This beetle was the only thing that had made any inroad into the explosion of cottony cushion scale that was threatening to destroy the state’s citrus crops. But, as Swingle now knew,California’s “first,’was nothing of the sort. The Chinese had been expert in biocontrol for many centuries.

G

The story goes on to say that the long tradition of ants in the Chinese orchards only began to waver in the 1950s and 1960s with the introduction of powerful organic (I guess the authormeans chemical insecticides). Although most fruit growers switched to chemicals, a few hung onto their ants. Those who abandoned ants in favour of chemicals quickly became disillusioned (幻想破滅). As costs soared and pests began to develop resistance to the chemicals, growers began to revive the old ant patrols. They had good reason to have faith in their insect workforce. Research in the early 1960s showed that as long as there were enough ants in the trees,they did an excellent job of dispatching some pests—mainly the larger insects—and had modest success against others. Trees with yellow ants produced almost 20 per cent more healthy leaves than those without. More recent trials have shown that these trees yield just as big a crop as those protected by expensive chemical sprays.

H

Oneapparent drawback of using ants—and one of the main reasons for the early skepticism by Western scientists—was that citrus ants do nothing to control mealy bugs, waxy-coated scale insects which can do considerable damage to fruit trees. In fact,the ants protect mealy bugs in exchange for the sweet honeydew they secrete. The orange growers always denied this was a problem but Western scientists thought they knew better. Research in the 1980s suggests that the growers were right all along. Where mealy bugs proliferate under the ants ‘protection they are usually heavily parasitized and this limits the harm they can do. Orange growers who rely on carnivorous ants rather than poisonous chemicals maintain a better balance of species in their orchards. While the ants deal with the bigger insect pests, other predatory species keep down the numbers of smaller pests such as scale insects and aphids(蚜蟲). In the long run, ants do a lot less damage than chemicals—and they’re certainly more effective than excommunication.

Passage 3 :

題名:The Persuaders

題型:選擇+匹配

類似文章:

A

We have long lived in an age where powerful images, catchy sound bite sand too-good-to miss offers bombard us from every quarter. All around us the persuaders are at work. Occasionally their methods are unsubtle--the planting kiss on a baby’s head by a wannabe political leader,or a liquidation sale in a shop that has been “closing down” for well over a year,but generally the persuaders know what they are about and are highly capable. Be they politicians, supermarket chains, salespeople or advertisers,they know exactly what to do to sell us their images, ideas or produce. When it comes to persuasion, these giants rule supreme. They employ the most skilled image-makers and use the best psychological tricks to guarantee that even the most cautious among us are open to manipulation.

B

We spend more time in them than we mean to, we buy 75 percent of our food from them and end up with products that we did not realize we wanted. Right from the start, supermarkets have been ahead of the game. For example,when Sainsbury introduced shopping baskets into its 1950s stores, it was a stroke of marketing genius. Now shoppers could browse and pick up items they previously would have ignored. Soon after came trolleys, and just as new roads attract more traffic, the same applied to trolley space. Pro Merlin Stone, IBM Professor of Relationship Marketing at Bristol Business School,says aisles are laid out to maximize profits. Stores pander to our money-rich, time-poor lifestyle. Low turnover products—clothes and electrical goods are stocked at the back while high---turnover items command position at the front.

C

Stone believes supermarkets work hard to “stall” us because the more time we spend in them, the more we buy. Thus, great efforts are made to make the environment pleasant. Stores play music to relax us and some even pipe air from the in-store bakery around the shop. In the USA,fake aromas are sometimes used. Smell is both the most evocative and subliminal sense. In experiments, pleasant smells are effective in increasing our spending. A casino that fragranced only half its premise saw profit soar in the aroma一 filled areas. The other success story from the supermarkets' perspective is the loyalty card. Punters may assume that they are being rewarded for their fidelity, but all the while they are trading information about their shopping habits. Loyal shoppers could be paying 30% more by sticking to their favorite shops for essential cosmetics.

D

Research has shown that 75 percent of profit comes from just 30 percent of customers. Ultimately, reward cards could be used to identify and better accommodate these “elite” shoppers. It could also be used to make adverts more relevant to individual consumers— rather like Spielberg’s futuristic thriller Minority Report, in which Tom Cruise’s character is bombarded with interactive personalized ads. If this sounds far-fetched, the data gathering revolution has already seen the introduction of radio—frequency identification—away to electronically tag products to what, FRID means they can follow the product into people homes.

E

No matter how savvy we think we are to their ploys,the ad industry still wins. Adverts focus on what products do or on how they make us feel. Researcher Laurette Dube, in the Journal of Advertising Research, says when attitudes are base on “cognitive foundations” (logical reasoning), advertisers use informative appeals. This works for products with little emotional draw buthigh functionality, such as bleach. Where attitude are based on effect (i.e, 5 emotions), ad teams try to tap into our feelings. Researchers at the University of Florida recently concluded that our emotional responses to adverts dominate over “cognition”.

F

Advertisers play on our need to be safe (commercials for insurance), to belong (make customer feel they are in the group in fashion ads) and for selfes— teem (aspirational adverts). With time and space at a premium, celebrities are often used as a quick way of meeting these needs— either because the celeb epitomizes success or because they seem familiar and so make the product seem “safe”. A survey of 4,000 campaigns found ads with celebs were 10 percent more effective than without. Humor also stimulates a rapid emotional response. Hwiman Chung, writing in the International Journal of Advertising, found that funny ads were remembered for longer than straight ones. Combine humor with sexual imagery—as in Wonder bra,s “Hello Boys” ads and you are on to a winner.

G

Slice-of-life ads are another tried and tested method they paint a picture of life as you would like it, but still one that feels familiar. Abhilasha Mehta, in the Journal of Advertising Research, noted that the more one’s self-image tallies with the brand being advertised, the stronger the commercial. Ad makers also use behaviorist theories,recognizing that the more sensation we receive for an object, the better we know it. If an advert for a chocolate bar fails to cause salivation, it has probably failed. No wonder advertisements have been dubbed the “nervous system of the business world”.

H

Probably all of us could make a sale if the product was something we truly believed in, but professional salespeople are in a different league——the best of them can always sell different items to suitable customers in a best time. They do this by using very basic psychological techniques. Stripped to its simplest level, selling works by heightening the buyer’s perception of how much they need a product or service. Buyers normally have certain requirements by which they will judge the suitability of a product. The seller therefore attempts to tease out what these conditions are and then explains how their products’ benefit can meet these requirements.

I

Richard Hession,author of Be a Great Salesperson says it is human nature to prefer to speak rather to listen, and good salespeople pander to this. They ask punters about their needs and offer to work with them to achieve their objectives. As a result, the buyer feels they are receiving a “consultation” rather than a sales pitch. All the while,the salesperson presents with a demeanor that takes it for granted that the sale will be made. Never will the words “if you buy” be used, but rather “when you buy”.

J

Dr. Rob Yeung, a senior consultant at business psychologists Kiddy and Partner, says most salespeople will build up a level of rapport by asking questions about hobbies, family and lifestyle. This has the double benefit of making the salesperson likeable while furnishing him or her with more information about the client’s wants. Yeung says effective salespeople try as far as possible to match their style of presenting themselves to how the buyer comes across. If the buyer cracks jokes, the salespeople will respond in kind. If the buyer wants detail, the seller provides it, if they are more interested in the feel of the product, the seller will focus on this. At its most extreme, appearing empathetic can even include the salesperson attempting to “mirror” the hobby language of the buyer.

K

Whatever the method used, all salespeople work towards one aim: “dosing the deal”. In fact, they will be looking for “closing signals” through their dealings with potential clients. Once again the process works by assuming success. The buyer is not asked “are you interested?” as this can invite a negative response. Instead the seller takes it for granted that the deal is effectively done: when the salesman asks you for a convenient delivery date or asks what color you want, you will probably respond accordingly. Only afterwards might you wonder why you proved such a pushover.

拓展:考試技巧

一、把握住簡單題型

首先,我們來看一下劍橋官方的評分標準。

大家可以看到,40道題目中,無論簡單題還是難題,任意做對30-32道,即可拿到閲讀7分。所以,如果閲讀想拿到7分,就一定要了解簡單題型的特點,把握住那些簡單的題型!

雅思閲讀的簡單題型,具有如下特點:

1、順序原則(包括判斷、填空和單選)。

2、容易定位,含有人名或數字等特殊定位詞的題目,典型代表是人名理論配對題。

二、挑選由易到難的答題順序

對於那些所有題目全能做對,時間還綽綽有餘的超級學霸來説,就不需要考慮做題順序了。

但是對於其他烤鴨來説,如果想早日屠鴨成功,推薦做法是:

在試卷發下來的第一分鐘,瀏覽三篇文章的標題、副標題和配圖以及題型,然後挑選“話題熟悉、題型簡單”的文章先做。

例如,三篇文章所涉及話題分別為:

1、探討古希臘哲學流派

2、兒童早期教育

3、睡眠質量對於工作學習表現的影響。

在這三篇文章中,除非是哲學專業的學生或哲學愛好者,否則大部分同學應該將第一篇文章放在最後處理。

而在每篇文章中,也應該儘量快速準確地先做完判斷、填空、特殊詞配對題和單選題,為其他難題爭取出更多時間。

對於閲讀目標分數為6.5分的同學,甚至只需要保證簡單題80%的正確率,即可獲得“可以接受的”成績。

數據證明,在共計1600道題目中,我們所提到的簡單題判斷、填空、特殊詞配對和單選已經佔了約76.26%,所佔比例超過四分之三,即:正常的試卷中,40道題目中,有約30道是簡單題。如果這些題目能保證80%的正確率,30*80%=24,已經站穩6分,其他10道難題,千萬別交白卷兒,把答案填滿,如果能蒙對三道,一共作對24+3=27道題,6.5分貌似也沒那麼難。

三、巧妙蒙題也能拿高分

説到這裏,有的同學可能會説,最近雅思閲讀被吐槽最多的那幾場,考生一片鬼哭狼嚎“蒼了天啦!二十多道配對題!”

在這裏需要強調的是:

1、帶特殊定位詞的配對題,算簡單題,可以迅速定位,不要怕;

2、越是難題多的時候,越需要更快更準地掃清簡單題,保證基礎分數,同時為難題爭取出更多的時間。

拓展:雅思閲讀做不完怎麼辦?

很多童鞋的基礎不夠好,主要體現在詞彙量不夠及語法掌握不牢,這就會導致題目文章理解困難,分不清複雜句結構,導致抓不住重點。

針對這兩點你需要做的是:

1、牢固掌握雅思閲讀高頻詞

2、對文章進行生詞和同義替換的總結

同意替換詞是雅思閲讀最大的出題點,自己進行總結,能幫助自己更深入的理解。

3、掌握雅思閲讀重點句型

雅思閲讀重在轉折、並列、因果等邏輯上的考察,補好基礎語法後,需要在這些邏輯句型上花費更多的時間去掌握。

很多同學會對每個單詞逐一停頓,並逐一翻譯地閲讀,強迫症式地想完全理解每句話的意思,這樣會浪費很多時間,也完全沒有必要。

在雅思閲讀中,要以意羣、句子,甚至幾個句子為一個單位移動,必要的時候進行跳讀。

掌握基礎語法和邏輯後,讀不懂的快讀,讀得懂的抓住重點。

還有同學低聲朗讀或嘴脣蠕動着默讀,用手或筆指着卷面一排排地導讀,這些都是嚴重影響閲讀速度的壞習慣,現在開始,童鞋們就應有意識的抑制這些習慣性行為。

在考場上,很多同學越想按時完成越是緊張。一旦一篇文章沒有及時做完,後面就慢慢心態崩了...

其實,大家的目標不是9分的話,就不是非得做完全部的題目,最重要的是,保證已做的題全部正確。

所以在平常的練習中,先保證正確率,前期可以仔細地慢慢做,做到每題全對;

後期熟練做題並牢固掌握詞彙語法後,要在1小時內達到40個全對的目標,第一遍對錯誤的題進行總結,第二遍繼續練習直到1小時內全對為止。

拓展:雅思寫作指導

1、複雜的單詞

在雅思寫作考試中,許多考生苦背單詞數月後,自感學有所成,英文水平有量躍,因此作文用詞不難不用,以博考官注意,期待“不鳴則已,一鳴驚人”的奇效。可惜雅思考官多半年邁,被你一“驚”一“嚇”,你的最後得分可想而知。譬如説,有個學生曾經寫過“superfluous”一詞,這種詞我稱之為“震災詞”,因為百年難遇。其實,單詞不求難易,只求貼切。舉例説,“fire”可謂簡單,許多學生不屑一用,但是BBC新聞上非常常見,可以説布萊爾首相的新提案正在”under fire”,也就是被指責,被攻擊的意思。BBC新聞的記者一般都是文學佼佼者,詞彙量深不可測,因此,他們用“fire”一詞,不代表他們詞彙量不夠,而是在於“fire”在這種語言情形下並無他選。另外一個例子是“cut”,所有國外的知名經濟報道每天都在用這個單詞,在價格上或者經費上的“cut”,表示説削減,很多學生用“decrease”,託福常見的“diminish”,乃至GRE常見的“dwindle”,都難以表達“cut”乾脆利落,毫不留情的感覺。

用複雜的單詞有兩大弱點:一,極其容易拼寫錯誤,這會激怒考官;二,用得不夠恰當:有的單詞在字典裏翻譯得並不準確,一旦使用,只會讓人啼笑皆非。國內各校都有宣傳部,很多人翻譯成“propaganda department”,外教百思不得其解,因為“propaganda”常用作貶義,只有戰爭期間的宣傳,才用“propaganda”,實難以堂堂高校宣傳等而視之。

單詞的正確使用,恰當使用是一個時間累積的過程。如果沒有足夠把握,千萬慎用。

2、複雜的句子結構

在雅思寫作考試時,許多考生考前苦心籌備二十來個句型,定語從句,狀語從句,名詞性從句,不一而足,然後在考場上千方百計、轉彎抹角地把句型列陣式地套上去,等待考官的最後檢閲。竊以為考官既然知道我的句型背誦爐火純青,應該會給我一個六分。然而,雅思作文考試不是語法考試,更不是背誦考試,而是考察語言應用的考試。一篇好的文章應該水道渠成,渾然天成,而並非生搬硬套,無中生有。我在考前提醒學生寫作要限制時間,有兩個用意:一,考試是限時考試,這一點不言而喻;二,避免學生費心思去炮製“優美”的句子,往往弄巧成拙,影響文章的流暢和觀感。

考生看到這一步,會問如何文字使用才可以到隨心所欲,出口成章的地步。方法很簡單,每天在BBC報道上摘錄句子五個,反覆背誦。中國俗話説“熟讀唐詩三百首,不會作詩也會吟。”英文學習的道理也在其中。背一個月的句子,考場上就可以一氣呵成,考生又何樂而不為?

3、不要抄襲範文

那麼如何迅速提高雅思寫作,俗話説:“天下文章一大抄。”其實,任何英文學習(廣泛地説,任何的語言學習)都需要模仿,也就是“抄襲”。英文從簡單的抄起,直抄到深奧的。只有不斷地模仿,“抄襲”,才可以熟能生巧,在考場上寫出靈活多變的句子來。很多考生道聽途説國內考官的手裏都有一些中國人編的所謂雅思寫作權威書籍,因此照抄書上的作文無甚用處,會被扣分。這種推斷非常荒謬,原因有三:

首先,很多所謂的權威書籍並非權威,裏面的八分範文並非八分。

其次,即使範文夠上了級別,考生是不是完全背下來了,背得恰當與否又是不得而知。有的學生背了片言隻語,然後融合自己寫的一堆病句錯句,分數不理想就開始懷疑考官是否打擊模仿範文的考生。又或者,考生死記硬背,看到題目類似就譽寫上去,而沒有考慮到題目修改所帶來的變化(本書會具體解釋),試問一篇文不對題的文章如何得六分?

再者,重申一句,語言都是模仿而來,包括考官本人的英文知識也是日積月累地模仿而來。對一件事情的描述其實大同小異,因此如果描述得當,文字上有雷同並不奇怪。考官不會期待着你對一件事物有前無古人,後無來者的敍述;反之,他只會接受外國人所遵循的一種普通的,常見的敍述方法。換言之,如果你的描寫接近英文的一般模式,你就會得高分。再簡單一點説,你抄得越象,越容易得高分。永遠記住一句話:所有的考試都是將合格的學生考出來,而不是將不合格的考生考出去。

4、“every coin is two sides”

中國人寫文章喜歡旁徵博引,拾人牙慧而示自己學識淵博,博覽羣書。這弊端顯而易見,就是自暴其短。譬如説中國學生百用不爽的“every coin is two sides”,這一點不可怕,可怕的是馬上加上一句“including positive side and negative side”。每個硬幣固然有兩面,然而為什麼偏有一面是負面,一面是正面?硬幣是錢,錢總是好的,怎會有一面好,一面不好?我問了外國朋友,這種説法是有,但是本意是説要一分為二看問題,也就是強調兩種看法,而不是事物的優缺點。從這一個教訓中國考生應該知道,如果沒有十足的把握,不要想當然地亂用外國的俗語。國內的考生遲早會到外國學習,翻開外國的專業書籍,你們會發現外國人本身極少使用俗語或者引用名言,一本幾百頁的書最多就是在前言那裏引上短短一句。中國學生極喜歡説“do in Rome as Rome does”(入鄉隨俗),那麼在雅思作文上也請入鄉隨俗,不管在國外還是國內考試,考的都是英文,自然要按照英文的習慣去行文。英文的習慣就是少引他人之言。

此外,有些考生居然勇敢到翻譯中文俗語和慣用語的地步,有些所謂的範文竟然翻譯獨生子女為小皇帝“little emperor”。這種翻譯並非是錯誤的,而是你需要花一定的篇幅去解釋“little emperor”是何許人也,如果你不想考官一片茫然從而給你一個惡劣的分數的話。雅思大作文是250字,40分鐘,時間和字數都非常有限,你不可能為了如此一個特色詞組,而大費筆墨。雅思作文考的是一篇標準作文,而不是特殊作文,或者是特色作文,讓考官迅速閲卷,迅速量分是成功的關鍵,如果讓他有思考或者停頓,你就應該需要籌備下一次考試了。

拓展:雅思評分標準

英國大使館文化教育處工作人員詳細介紹雅思(IELTS)考試的評分標準、分數報告解釋及口語、閲讀、聽力、寫作等級評分細則。評分細則還刊登在其網站上隨時供考試人員查詢。

總分/單項分怎樣評出

按照《IELTS評分標準、分數報告和解釋》,考試人員成績從1~9共分為九個等級。成績報告單上有聽、説、讀、寫四個部分的分項得分,也有總分,四個部分所得分數的平均分四捨五入之後就是考試人員的總分。

總分、聽力以及閲讀部分的分數可以是整級或半級。例如,如果四項平均分等於或大於6.25分,則計入6的上半級分數,取6.5分;如果平均分等於或大於6.75分,則計入6的上一級分數,取7分。寫作和口語部分的分數只按整級計算。

聽力和閲讀部分各包含40道題目,每答對一題得一分。考試人員這兩部分的滿分原始分均為40分,考試人員依據其原始分獲取1~9的等級分。

寫作評分細則示例

雅思寫作通常有Task1和Task2兩個部分,考官給以下四項分別評等級分:任務完成情況(Task1)、任務反應情況(Task2)、連貫與銜接、詞彙和句式豐富性及語法準確性。

以Task1為例,一名在IELTS學術類考試中寫作獲得6分的考試人員,達到這一等級對應的寫作水準是:

(A)在任務完成方面,達到寫作任務各項要求、能確切選擇有用信息進行全面評述、呈現並強調主要特點或要點,但細節可能與要點無關、不恰當或不準確。

(B)連貫及銜接方面,信息和分論點安排連貫,論證過程清楚,有效使用銜接手段,但句內或句間銜接有錯誤或顯機械呆板,有時指代不清晰或不恰當。

(C)詞彙量方面,相對寫作任務而言,所運用的詞彙量充足,嘗試運用非常見詞彙但有時出現錯誤,拼寫和構詞出現一些錯誤,但不影響交流。

(D)句式多樣性及語法準確性方面,混合使用簡單和複合句,語法和標點出現一些錯誤但基本不影響交流。

口語評分細則示例

同樣,在IELTS口語部分,考官也是按四項標準分別評等級分:流利度及連貫性,詞彙、句式豐富性及語法準確性和語音。仍以一名獲得口語6分的考試人員為例,他所對應的口語水準是:

(A)流利度及連貫性方面,願意進行詳細描述,但有時因重複、自我更正或停頓而造成不連貫,運用不同的連接詞和語篇標記,但有時不恰當。

(B)詞彙方面,儘管有時詞彙運用不恰當,但詞彙量足以詳細表述主題,表意清楚,總體上能成功地變換措辭進行復述。

(C)句式多樣性及語法準確性方面,混合使用簡單和複合句式,但不夠靈活;使用複合句式時經常出錯,但並不因此影響理解。

(D)語音方面,總體能聽懂,偶爾因發音錯誤給聽者理解造成負擔。

評分一直受質量監控

據《IELTS評分標準、分數報告和解釋》,所有雅思評分都由評卷官和考官在考試中心完成。所有評卷官均須事先接受培訓,確保理解其評分規定,並且證明其能根據評分標準進行評分。評卷官每兩年要重新接受測試,以確保其評分符合標準,每次考試都有系統監測,並對部分答卷進行兩次評分。

有利考試人員針對性備考

據瞭解,此次公佈評分細則,目的是為了便於國外院校、使館、用人單位等接收有雅思成績的學生、職員的機構對該考試的有效性有一個更加直觀的瞭解,讓他們認識到該考試的科學性以及其測試結果的可靠性。

文化教育處工作人員説,對中國考試人員來説,公佈評分標準細則意義也很重大,考試人員好好利用將受益匪淺。首先,參照詳實的評分細則,學生可以有針對性地備考。其次,評分細則的公佈有利於考試人員正確分析自己的考試成績,減少估分的誤差和無效複議——根據雅思考試規則,對分數有疑義的考試人員在成績公佈28天內可以提出複議,但需要繳納一定的費用。如果複議後成績確實存在誤差,該費用將退還考試人員。
