雅思小作文动态图:1个变化的25种翻译方式~

2017-05-06 张智超 新东方留学考试学习平台


在学术类雅思全年48次考试中,有20次以上的小作文为动态图,即有时间变化的,需要着重描述趋势的数据类图。而常见的趋势,不论是上升、下降还是波动和不变,都可能在文章中出现不止一次。如何在每次表达变化的时候,增加更多的句型变化,一直是困扰考生的头等大事。


今天,希望我的一个简单的示范,以及“费尽心机”的25种翻译方式,让你下次在表示数据变化的时候,不要捉襟见肘。



所有的句子都以下面的这个内容为翻译对象:

细心的你有没有发现,上面的25种变化,几乎已经把所有常规的英语语法结构都涵盖了。其实,他们之间没有本质的区别,最后用哪种结构,更多取决于你的句型需要和写作习惯。


在这里,我们只是尝试翻译这样一个简单的中文意思,如果在考试中,你需要描述的数据内容,涉及到更多复杂的变化和比较,写出来的英文句子变化的丰富程度可想而知。并且,一篇150字的小作文,不可能需要写到25个句子,一般是在10-15句左右。那么,做到每句话语法结构都不重复,想必是洒洒水啦。


希望今天的讲解帮助到你,找到最正确和多样的写数据变化的方式。
