范文
I’d like to join a writing acitivity.
Writing has been a huge problem for me. It happens very often in writing classes that I don’t even understand the question. Even if I get the meaning of the prompt, it is always difficult to come up with ideas and develop those ideas into a complete five-paragraph essay. So if a writing activity really helps, it’s definitely worth trying.
I know pottery making is fun, but it feels bad to get my hands dirty and get my t-shirts stained.
As for art creation, it simply sounds too complicated.
So again, a writing activity will be a good choice for me.
范文分析
通常第二部分對于考生是難點,這篇范文結(jié)構(gòu)上使用了“描述問題——提出解決方案”的結(jié)構(gòu),通過If條件句來佐證自己的觀點,充實內(nèi)容(well-developed)。
Come up with, definitely worth trying, get my hands dirty等搭配用法,不僅在句型上多樣化,而且使表達更加地道。
I'd like, I know, it sounds, so again等詞組能讓整個片段聽上去更加合理通順,文脈清晰,讓考官覺得有理有據(jù),即使不用那些難懂的詞匯。
所有內(nèi)容搭建在5層漢堡包的框架上,組織得當??谡Z用詞不需要很難,盡量多用phrasal verbs。內(nèi)容聯(lián)系自身實際,言之有物。結(jié)構(gòu)可以照搬漢堡包,反復練習達到自然表達。
