雅思写作思维模式之思辨性思维

2013/11/0402:08关键词:雅思写作思维模式之思辨性思维  

  • 字体:

  雅思写作思维模式,在进行雅思写作的时候有关思维模式的学习也是很重要的,考生在写作的时候在思维上你没有把握好,从而导致了成绩不理想,下面考生们可以看看北京新航道小编整理的相关的介绍。

  英语应试类的写作方法在中国范围内的辩论已经持续了很长时间。辩论的双方一边大声疾呼句子复杂的重要性,一边也不遗余力地在呼吁文章必须言之有物。其实两者皆为英语写作的要素,并不矛盾,只不过是在不同考试中强调的重点不同罢了。如果对于这个问题看不透彻,也就无法解释为什么有的考生GRE写作可以考到5分(满分6分)而相对简单许多的IELTS写作却只能拿到一个普通的6分(满分9分)而已了。由此可见看清考试本质的重要性。

  在笔者所接触的英语考试(TOEFL, IELTS, GRE, SAT)中可以感觉到明显的区别。GRE和SAT的考试由于是主要针对母语是英语的考生,因此其考试性质已不仅仅在语言层面,而在更大程度上考查考生的思维,要求文章在语言基础上体现思辨性,需要言之有物。而TOEFL和IELTS的考试性质不同,它们是对于母语非英语的考生的语言考试,因而从某种程度上来说更加注重语言本身的正确性和驾驭能力,对于思辩的考察几乎都没有列入正式的评分标准。

  那么,是否可以说明IELTS的写作应当忽略思维的练习呢?当然不是。

  在笔者接触的中国考生中,雅思写作的难点不仅仅在语法和措词,更重要的一点是思维的基本逻辑。这里笔者用了“基本逻辑”以区分前文中的“思辨性”。两者区别在于后者的程度深要求高难度大,而前者只是文章基本通顺的要求罢了。换言之,前者是logically make sense, 后者是make logical wonder. 但是令人担忧的是,有时候即使请中国学生用中文写作雅思作文,仍然会感觉其文章论证逻辑混乱,上下文联系不紧,甚至出现理屈词穷的尴尬场面。因此笔者认为,在国内铺天盖地的英语写作模板泛滥之际,这是研究写作,尤其是英语写作的学生和老师都应该转变思想的时候了。试想,如果拿几个作文模板就能够走遍天下都不怕, 如果这不是此种考试的悲哀,那么是这种语言的悲哀。况且,如果中国的雅思考生逻辑思维能力普遍薄弱,那么我们就应该跳过英语的层面去看到思维上的巨大漏洞。亡羊补牢,为时不晚。

  为弥补这一弱点,教育工作者应该做的事有,比如说在中小学阶段就应该强调写作和日常口语中的逻辑问题,因为思维模式的形成和发展总是和大的环境和教育模式有关。这是一个长期的工作,但是意义深远。毕竟,一个民族的思考方式的代表着一个民族的。这是比英语水平和留学成功率更加紧迫和重要的事情。当然,这些不是本文讨论的重点。

  作为普通的“烤鸭”来说,又应该如何在有限的备考时间内锻炼基本思维和逻辑呢?

  首先,了解基本逻辑,避免常见错误。

  其次,关注社会现象,积累基本常识。

  最后,浏览往年考题,多做提纲训练。

  (一)了解基本逻辑,避免常见错误

  要了解基本逻辑错误不能错过一篇英文小品文Love Is A Fallacy(作者Max Shulman),这里仅列举出十种最常见的逻辑错误。

  1.草率前提 (Dicto Simpliciter)

  例如:Women are on average not as strong as men and less able to perform well politically. Therefore, women can't pull their weight in government work.

  点评:虽然女性确实在政界担任较少工作,但这不意味着女性群体中所有的人都是这样。

  2.过度概化 (Hasty Generalization)

  例如:McDonald's and KFC offer foods with little nutrition, and thus we cannot expect any fast food restaurant to provide us with nutritious foods.

  点评:两个个例不足以推出一个真理。

  3.因果颠倒 (Post Hoc)

  例如:Most young criminals watch violent movies before they commit their crimes; obviously, violent movies lead to juvenile delinquency.

  点评:甲事情发生在乙事情之前,这并不代表着先发生的甲事情就是后发生的乙事情的原因。

  4.矛盾前提 (Contradictory Premises)

  例如:If God can do everything, can he make a stone so heavy that he can't carry?

  点评:前提条件中就有相互矛盾的地方,结论当然是错误的。

  5.感性论证 (Ad Misericordiam)

  例如:Think of all the poor, starving African children! How could rich countries be so cruel as not to help them?

  点评:抒情是不能当作论证的。

  6.错误类比 (False Analogy)

  例如:Young children are like flowers---flowers should stay away from terrible weather to grow, so children need to get rid of everything negative.

  点评:孩子和花朵的区别太大。成长的过程也太复杂。不要用这两者来类比。

  7.虚假假设 (Hypothesis Contrary to Fact)

  例如:If TV were not invented, today people would never have such wonderful entertainment brought by TV.

  点评:因为电视已经被发明了,对于过去的否定假设后所得出的结论都是逻辑上的错误结论。

  8.无关转移 (Red Herring)

  例如:Many people say we need to exploit the outer space, a point which I believe is wrong, because there are so many poor people on Earth who hardly make ends meet.

  点评:有一个问题没解决并不代表着另一个问题不值得解决。

  9.从众错误 (Bandwagon)

  例如:Everyone says it is justified to learn a second language so we must learn one.

  点评:人人都说,或者大多数都说,这并不意味着该观点正确。

  10.滑坡谬误 (Slippery slope)

  例如:If we don't care about the environment, the world will die in 50 years.

  点评:从环境问题到世界灭亡,中间有无数环节未提供论证。

  (二)关注社会现象,积累基本常识
