Task 2解题技巧
Task2部分考察的是学生阐述自己观点和证明立场的能力。题型往往是关于偏好或同意不同意之类的,因此解题思路同样还是可以向Task1部分一样,也就是我们常说的答题三部曲:结构,思维发散,细节论证。与Task1不同是思维发散的范围小了很多,如果碰到一些抽象的话题,想不到那么多的思维发散点,没有足够的细节论证怎么办?
这个时候就可以通过不同的结构来解决这个问题。对比结构。
首先看看什么是对比结构。
Personally, I prefer A/B.
To begin with, 分析A/B的优点+ 细节
However, 分析B/A 的缺点+ 细节
That’s why I think A/B is better than B/A.
比如Do you prefer to study alone or with other people?可以选择一边倒的总分总结构来回答这个问题。譬如与别人一起,省时,合作学习能力等。而用对比结构来写的话就可以只想两个点就可以了。
To begin with, preparing exams alone helps me foster many skills that are useful for jobs and in everyday life. For example, to solve a complicated equation in math, I will have developed skills in solving problems independently because I have to figure out the question on my own, so that this skill will benefit me a lot when I attend the college abroad
However, preparing exams with others will waste me tons of time. To be more specific, it will take more time to finish one single task because I can’t help chatting with my classmates if I study with them. So I think preparing exams with others are quite time-consuming.
有没有觉得这样可以减缓思维发散的压力?
