在高考书面表达阅卷中,最忌讳的就是大众化的词汇和平庸的表达,要想得高分,就得多用高级词汇,注意遣词造句。

1.三大原则教你正确使用"高级词汇"

原则一:"弃旧取新"原则

阅卷老师偏爱"学得晚"的单词,因为使用学得比较晚的单词,可以体现学生"学以致用"的意识。例如,表示"美丽的"形容词,同学们首先想到的是初中词汇beautiful,用高中词汇appealing,ttractive,charming和fascinating等来替换beautiful,可以为书面表达提分不少。

原则二: "短语优先"原则

高考书面表达中,多使用词组和习语来代替一些单词可以起到增加文采的作用。例如,first可用to begin / start with 替换;besides可以用in addition和what is more替换;consider可以用take sth.into consideration/account替换;remember可以用 keep in mind替换。

原则三:"避免重复"原则

同学们要想写出一篇好的书面表达,就要尽量避免重复多次使用同一个简单的单词。例如,反复使用should,这时考生应该充分发散思维,灵活地运用短语be supposed to 和had better等进行替换。
