【启德考培】托福口语和写作部分都对考生的词汇Vocabulary有明确的要求,SpeechRater和E-Rater这两个评分引擎将会评估考生的词汇量,如果频繁使用不准确的、表意模糊的词会表明你的词汇量有限,从而影响2个部分的分数。今天我们就来看下有哪些。
一、Very / so
Very这个词在英语表达中“very”是一个力度很低的词语,“very”的频繁使用不仅会让考官觉得无聊,还显示出了考生贫瘠的词汇量,甚至有的时候very并不能给句子加分,比如:My mother is very caring 和 My mother very caring 两句的表达其实是没有因为very产生不同。所以同学们,别再用毫无新意的very了,如果你的确有频繁使用very的习惯,可以在口语写作的练习中加以重视,适当使用一些替换词,逐步取代单调的very+形容词表达法,如:
very afraid → terrified
very boring →dull
very careful → cautious
very cold →freezing
very difficult→ challenging
...
二、Of course
不建议使用of course的原因有两个,因为这样的过渡会暗示你的读者以及听众并不聪明,或者你并没有充分解释你的想法。
×Of course,living in a dorm is a lot less expensive than living in an apartment.
√Clearly, living in a dorm is a lotless expensive than living in anapartment.
三、Thing / Stuff
使用“thing或“stuff”意味着你不知道如何描述一个物体或一些现象,暴露了自己的词汇匮乏,所以建议考生一定要学会用详细的词去进行描述表达。
×Finally, I have taken my things to my new dorm.
√ Finally, I have taken my belongings(财物) to my new dorm.
×The stuff in the meeting lasted more than two hours.
√The proceedings(事件) in the meeting lasted more than two hours.
四、always
使用always是典型的夸大了论点中的观点,因此,不建议托福考生使用这个副词,可以尝试替换为usually 。
×My roommate always throws hisclothes on the floor.
√My roommate usually throws hiclothes on the floor.
五、Never
这里特意指出,never和always有相似的问题,never也容易夸大。
×My roommate never lost her temper because she was a goodperson.
√Instilled in her that being angry was an unacceptable form of human expression, my roommate rarely lost her temper.
六、A lot
在关于数量的表达中,也要做到用词精准,并且正式,在写作中,a lot of/lots of表示为“许多”,较为不正式,除了使用many或者much来表达,还可以恰当的使用a plethora of进行表达。
×A lot of books are piled onto the bookshelves by the wall.
√A plethora of(过多的) books are piled onto the bookshelves by the wall.
七、Good
在托福口语写作中小伙伴们是不是还在用 good?你的词库真的该更新啦!这些词不仅仅简单基础,无法体现出你的词汇量,也不能表示事物不同程度的“好”。
×My TOEFL mentor was a good help to when while I was completing my speaking and writing practice tests.
√My TOEFL mentor was a splendid(极佳的) help to when while I was completing my speaking and writing practice tests
八、Nice
和前面很多词的问题一样,nice也是一个表意模糊不准确的词,而对于想取得高分的托福考生来说,应该选择更加准确的词来表达。
×For these reasons, I have usually found my mother to be nice.
√For these reasons, I have usually found my mother to be cordial(亲切的).
九、Really
Really的问题像开头提到的very和so,是一个不太精确表达程度的词,所以建议大家可以用更高级的词汇替换表达:
×I told my friend that it was really important to talk to the professor if he had questions about his final term project.
√I told my friend that it was distinctly important to talk to the professor if he had questions about his final term project.
十、Anything
Anything可以是一切事物,这种不准确的用词描述尽量不要出现在托福考试中,考生们需要学会详细描述事物,展开解释anything这个词也会让你的论据更加充分。
×I would do almost anything inorder to live with a compatible roommate.
√Interviewing several people before making my choice, requiring references, and making sure the chosen candidate gives me a $2,000 deposit will ensure that I can select the most qualified person to live with me.
通过以上这些词不难看出,托福考试的用词还是以准确、不模糊语义为出发点,在此基础上再使用恰当的高级词汇,但是一定要弄清词意与语境才运用,也要注意不同单词在表达程度和感情色彩上的区别。同学们在日常积累时,可以通过查阅权威词典,熟练掌握这些词汇的使用语境,查找例句了解正确用法。
