在GRE寫作中單調(diào)的句式和結(jié)構(gòu)、長度相近的句子使作文顯得呆板單調(diào),缺乏生動性和說服力。而考生若想把作文寫得生動一些,就要學(xué)會豐富句子成分,使句子活起來!下面大家就隨小編一起去了解一下如何豐富GRE作文句子吧!
GRE長短句變換
也就是簡單句、并列句和復(fù)合句交替運用。長句準確生動,長于說明推理;短句簡潔明快,意義明確,印象深刻,描述動作,表明主旨,總結(jié)歸納,非短句不可。既然各有所長,在寫作時應(yīng)根據(jù)實際需要,交替使用簡單句、并列句和復(fù)合句,以達到“段間長短不一,全篇句式萬千”、豐富多樣的效果,給讀者以及閱卷老師以永恒的新鮮感。
結(jié)構(gòu)多樣化
我們學(xué)過非謂語動詞結(jié)構(gòu)(包括不定式結(jié)構(gòu)和分詞結(jié)構(gòu)),無動詞結(jié)構(gòu),分隔結(jié)構(gòu),比較結(jié)構(gòu),獨立結(jié)構(gòu),with復(fù)合結(jié)構(gòu),特殊否定結(jié)構(gòu),it結(jié)構(gòu),平行結(jié)構(gòu),強調(diào)結(jié)構(gòu),倒裝結(jié)構(gòu),等等。其中最為神通廣大的是非謂語動詞結(jié)構(gòu),在句中或作主語、賓語,或作表語、賓語補足語,或作定語修飾名詞,或作狀語表示條件、原因、讓步、時間、方式、目的、結(jié)果、伴隨狀況等,不一而足。
