关于雅思词汇,特别是需要你掌握单词使用方法的口语和写作词汇,我比较强调“话题逻辑记忆”。在这里,我再给大家分享一下基于“话题逻辑”所升级的新方法“Mind Map框架记忆法”。
以雅思写作常考的的教育话题为例,请看下表:

看完以上表格,大家或许也就明白了,以前同学们老说自己背单词没用,即使背了,自己也无法表达出来。其实,大家只是缺乏一个合理的框架把这些词汇整理出来而已。按照这种框架记忆的方法,以后再写到关于教育的文章后,就不会出现没有思路或者有思路但没有对应词汇的尴尬局面了。
举几个雅思写作的真题为例,看看“Mind Map 框架记忆”的威力。
1、School should concentrate on teaching students the academic subjects that will be useful for their future careers. Subjects such as music and sports are not useful. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
此题问的是“学校该不该开设艺术和体育这两种科目”。
如果我要赞同,说应该开设体育科目,那么就可以利用到关于教育中“体”和“美”两个方面的词汇了。如
参加体育活动,有助于保持良好的生活习惯(keep a healthy lifestyle),适应高强度工作和竞争(adapt to intensive work and competition),释放压力(release pressure from life),保持心理健康(psychological well-being),变得乐观(be optimistic),还有助于于团队精神(team spirit),锻炼人际交往能力(improve interpersonal communication and social skills),最终拥有好的职业前景(have great career prospects)
2.Should secondary school have a class of international news? Some people think it is waste of time, while others think it is necessary. To some extent, do you agree or disagree, and why?
此题问“学校该不该把国际新闻当成一门课让学生们学习”。
如果我认为该开设,那就说多了解新闻的好处,这是可以用上表格中关于“智”和“劳”的词汇。
多读新闻,有助于拓展知识(extend your knowledge),开拓视野(expand the horizons),培养广泛兴趣(cultivate wide interests),拥有洞察力的见解( an insightful perspective on sth)批判性思维技能(improve our critical thinking skills), 拥有好的职业前景(have great career prospects)。并且有了广泛兴趣是不是有助于交友,找到志同道合的朋友,有助于拓展自己的人脉资源呢?(expand your network and reach)。
3.University students always focus on one specialist subject, but some people think universities should encourage their students to study a range of subjects in addition to their own subject. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this statement?
此题问“学生是学习单个科目好,还是多个科目好”请大家参考第二个题目以及框架词汇中的“智”章节给处自己的思路吧。
此外,还需注意的是对于写作词汇,大家尽量记忆词组,记忆搭配,而不要孤立的记忆一个词。这样你才能写出争取的句子。
