2020改版后KET的写作部分出现了较大变化,增加了一道从未有过的全新题目--看图写作,也是写作部分的第二道题母。它要求考生根据所提供的3幅图做故事的描述,比起老版的题目更多地考查了考生主动输出的能力,也要求考生具备一定的图片信息提取能力、看图发挥的想象能力和写作的逻辑能力。考前“背模板”这样的想法,既不能达到提高孩子写作能力的目标,也不太可能在考试中取得优异的成绩。 看到这里可能会有家长朋友问,那我们应该怎样在这部分提高呢? 通过标注的部分,可以看到写作评分的三个维度分别是:Content内容、Organisation结构组织和Language语言运用,每个维度对应0-5分,一篇文章的总分是15分。内容要求考生解读三幅图片所蕴含的信息,所写内容扣题,通过描述每一幅图来完成一个情节合理的故事;结构组织主要考查对于文章的句式结构和逻辑,需要考生将部分短句通过连词转换为复合句或并列句;语言应用则需要考生丰富词汇和语法结构的使用。 根据剑桥官方所给的评分维度,一些针对每个维度提高的tips: 1. 通过时间、天气、地点、人物、动作行为、原因等角度来提取图片信息。 ①
时间:在下午/在周六的下午,我们可以这样写in the afternoon /on Sunday afternoon。 ②地点:在街上/在购物中心,我们可以这样写inthe street / in the shopping centre。 ③天气:热的/相当热/酷热的,我们可以这样写hot / pretty hot / boiling。 ④人物:玛利亚和她的朋友谭雅,我们可以这样写Maria and her friendTanya。 ⑤动作行为:他们正走在街上,我们可以这样写they were walking alongthe street。 ⑥原因:玛利亚想要给妹妹买一件礼物,所以邀请了她的朋友谭雅一起全逛街,我们可以这样写Mariawanted to buy a present for her sister, so she invitedher friend Tanya to go shopping. 也可以说他们家附近新开了一家购物中心,所以决定走路去,我们可以这样写There was anew shopping centre near their house, so they decidedto go there on foot. 通过不同的角度提取图片的信息,就可以描述每幅图片所包含的内容啦! 2. 一个好的记叙文结构相信孩子们都有学习过:开端-发展-高潮-结局,我们可以试着在第一段写地点、时间和主人公等信息,第二段写主要事件,第三段写故事的结局。(该条适合阅读量大、基础较好的孩子) 3. 写故事时使用正确且丰富的动词时态:一般过去时,过去进行时,一般过去时和过去进行时结合使用(适合基础较好的孩子),过去完成时(PET内容,如果有掌握可以使用)。 一般过去时 肯定句
否定句
疑问句 I, you, we, they, he, she, it + did I, you, we, they, he, she, it + didn't do Did + I, you, we, they, he, she, it + do 过去进行时 肯定句
否定句
疑问句 I, he, she, it + was doing I, he, she, it + wasn't doing Was + I, he, she, it + doing you, we, they + were doing you, we, they + weren't doing Were + you, we, they + doing 一般过去时和过去进行时结合使用 when while When + 一般过去时,过去进行时 过去进行时 + when + 一般过去时 While + 过去进行时,一般过去时 一般过去时 + while + 过去进行时 过去完成时 肯定句
否定句
疑问句 I, you, we, they, he, she, it + had done I, you, we, they, he, she, it + hadn't done Had + I, you, we, they, he, she, it + done 4. 使用合适的过去时间表达,描述事件发生的时间,或一系列事件的先后顺序。 ① 含yesterday的表达,yesterdaymorning / afternoon / evening ② 含last的表达,last night/ Saturday / week / weekend / month… ③ 含ago的表达,two hours /three days … + ago ④ 含later的表达,tenminutes / two days … later 5. 不要整篇文章都写简单句,可以使用连词将短句连接成并列句或复合句。 ① 然后、接着:and 短句:He saw there was some money in the street.He picked up the money. 运用and:He saw therewas some money and picked it up. ② 因此:so 短句:Tom was feeling hungry. He made himself asandwich. 运用so:Tom was feelinghungry, so he made himself a sandwich. ②
因为:as, since, because 短句:Joel's alarm clock didn't ring. He waslate for school. 运用as:Joel was latefor school as his alarm clock didn't ring. ④ 当…的时候:when, while, 短句:Pete fell. He was playing basketball. 运用when:Pete wasplaying basketball when he fell. 运用while:Pete fellwhile he was playing basketball. ⑤ 但是:but 短句:It was an expensive book. The book wasextremely useful. 运用but:It was anexpensive but extremely useful book. 6. 添加更多的细节信息,用形容词修饰名词,副词修饰动词。 添加形容词前:We arrived at the stadium. 添加形容词后:We arrived at the huge, modern stadium. 添加副词前:A lot of people were dancing andsinging. 添加副词后:A lot of people were dancing andsinging excitedly. 7. 尽可能多使用extremeadjective,这类词的意思就是very+形容词,例如: ① very good: great, fantastic, wonderful, excellent, brilliant ② very bad: awful, terrible ③ very big: huge, giant, enormous ④ very small: tiny ⑤ very hot: boiling ⑥ very cold: freezing ⑦ very happy: pleased, cheerful 8. 避免重复使用一个词汇,可以选择合适的代词代替名词或者改写成关系从句。 用代词前:My favourite restaurant is an Italianrestaurant. The restaurant is the best restaurant in our town. 用代词后:My favourite restaurant is Italian, it is the best one in our town. 关系从句:My favourite restaurant is Italian, which is the best one in our town. 相信小朋友们掌握了这些备考技巧后,KET写作部分的看图写作一定可以突飞猛进。同时在这也要提醒小朋友们和家长,剑桥通用五级考试是英语能力测试,能力的提升比应试技巧的学习更为关键,也更为重要。首先要做到的是输入的积累,平时增加课外阅读,保证每天都有一定时间的阅读量,一些好的课外读物(如牛津树、魔法树屋、疯狂学校等),阅读的过程不仅是思考的过程,也可以巩固词汇、认知词汇,跟着音频跟读还能兼顾听口,同时也能够积累写作的素材。写完一篇文章,自己先检查一遍,看看是否有一些常见的语法错误或词汇拼写错误,如漏掉不定冠词a和an、忽略了名词单复数的变化、动词时态结构不对等问题,再交给老师批改,老师可以根据考试评分每个维度分析这篇文章的完成度,做针对性的修改和练习,才能达到更有效率的提高。 文中所提到的这些备考技巧,如果是通过大量的刷题来学习掌握,不仅劳神费力,效果其实也是微乎其微。更建议小朋友们系统地去学习这一门语言,从根本上提高能力,事半功倍,通过学习路上的每一个考试也只是一个水到渠成的过程。 想了解更多关于学习生活的咨询,请关注“北京新东方学校中小学一对一”网站和公众号“北京新东方中小学全科教育1对1”,更多精彩等您发现! |
