what is explicitly stated, claimed, or concluded;what is assumed or supposed, perhaps without justification or proof;what is not stated, but necessarily follows from what is stated??偨Y(jié)一下:即論據(jù),結(jié)論,推理過程中的未加證明的假設,論據(jù)中的潛在后果。這四點都是需要我們盡量展示在第一段里面的。
2、同時,還要考慮原題目中的邏輯鏈:In addition, you should consider the structure of the argument。在這過程中更重要的是:sometimes implicit steps in the thinking process and consider whether the movement from each one to the next is logically sound。這是我們攻擊的要點,尤其是隱含的邏輯步驟。
3、在分析時:You will not be expected to know methods of analysis or technical terms.
4、awintro中舉一個例子:For instance, in one topic an elementary school principal might conclude that the new playground equipment has improved student attendance because absentee rates have declined since it was installed.論證的思路為:(1)意識到存在它因you will simply need to see that there are other possible explanations for the improved attendance,(2)提供具體的它因 to offer some common-sense examples, (3)從結(jié)論考慮,怎樣才能使論證完整有力,即如何改進and perhaps to suggest what would be necessary to verify the conclusion. For instance, absentee rates might have decreased because the climate was mild. This would have to be ruled out in order for the principal’s conclusion to be valid.
5、官方認為的有幾個關鍵名詞需要解釋,其中analysis這個詞的解釋很重要,很多同學知道這個詞的意思是分析,但什么是分析就說得不是很清楚了。這里給出了清晰的答案:the process of breaking something (e.g., an argument) down into its component parts in order to understand how they work together to make up the whole。說白了,就是把原題中的三段式論證給打拆開,逐一地進行分析。同樣的analytical writing的核心也就是拆開原命題,分成1串邏輯鏈,然后一部分一部分地討論。
