顾家北顾家北 微信推送词伙微信推送词伙 20142014 年年 9 9 月月 9 30 今天我推送的是 SImon 的范文的主体段落第一段的解析 Happiness is considered very important in life Why is it difficult to define What factors are important in achieving happiness 主体部分第一段 1 Happiness is difficult to define because it means something different to each individual person 2 Nobody canfully understand or experience another person s feelings and we all have ourown particular passions from which we take pleasure 3 Some people for example derive a sense of satisfaction from earning money or achieving success whereas for others health and family are much more important 4 At the same time a range of other feelings from excitement to peacefulness may be associated with the idea of happiness and 5 the same person may therefore feel happy in a variety of different ways 学习点 1 关于快乐的替换表达 Takepleasure from 获得快乐 Derive a sense of satisfaction 获得满足感 Experiencehappiness 感受快乐 可以看到 快乐的替换不仅是单词 还要注意和动词的匹配 学习点 2 family 不需要加复数 因为本身就等于 family members 的意思 学习点 3 whereas 和 while 使用的时候 意思对称就可以 未必要结构对称 第一个单句的主语是 nobody 第二个单句的主语是 health and family 学习点 4 遇到这种抽象的题目 考官在第三句话用了举例的方式 这个和我 们上课强调的是一样的 整个段落的结构是 1 立场 2 解释 3 举例 4 并列的观点 5 重复立场 不难看见 我们上课的四句结构 其实很多考官在用 只是他们没有很好的总 结 和贯彻使用 所以学生比较难学习 9 29 今天我推送的是 SImon 的范文的开头段解析 Happiness is considered very important in life Why is it difficult to define What factors are important in achieving happiness 开头段 It is no doubt true that the majority of people would like to be happy in their lives While the personal nature of happiness makes it difficult to describe there do seem to be some common needs that we all share with regard to experiencing or achieving happiness 学习点 1 SIMON 的开头段基本上是我们上课的套路 第一句话背景 第二句 话立场 学习点 2 词伙 personal nature 个性 Common needs 共同的需要 Achieve happiness 获得快乐 学习点 3 with regard to 的 to 是介词 所以后面要用动名词 experiencing 学习点 4 there do seem to be 里的 seem 看起来是 让语气变得不确定 显 得客观 9 28 今天我推送的是一个 BBC 的文章 关于商业选址 是不是可以用在离家工作的 话题 Mitchell Callahan relocated to Toronto to help grow the business 发展生意 he co founded Choosing where to locate a new business can be a difficult decision 艰难地决定 for any entrepreneur Do you simply stick to the familiar surroundings 习惯熟悉的环境 of your hometown where you have your

to interact with a lot of different people and some children learn to communicate very early because of this They are generally moreconfident and independent than children who stay at home with their parents and who are not used to strangers or new situations Such children find their first day at school at the age of six frightening and this may have a negative effect on how they learn 学习点1 very early 去替换froman early age 学习点2 children从头到尾没有任何的替换词 因为很简单 这个词没有替换词 是不 是很多中国学生觉得不可思议 学习点3 注意这个文章代词的使用 包括they their parents this 等 充分验证了我们 上课的内容 学习点4 have a negative effect 是13个基本句型的第一个 正如我说过的 雅思作文

allowed to stayat home and play until they are six or seven years old Others believe that itis important for young children to go to school as soon as possible What do you think are the advantages of attending school from a young age 开头段 In many places today children start primary school at around the age of six orseven However because it is more likely now that both parents work there is little opportunity for children to stay in their own home up to that age Instead they will probably go to a nursery school when they are much younger 学习点1 很多同学开头段习惯会写 nowadays 或者比较机械地换成 currently 或者 in this day and age 都不是很好 而考官选择的方式是将 today 放在句子中 间 学习点2 一些关于上学的词伙 start primary school 开始上小学 Attend school 上学 Go to a nursery school 上学前班 学习点3 有些老师说开头段不能写however 也不能写because 这个开头段都是很好 的范例 雅思作文没有那么多定规 只要合理

关于名人的主体段的第二段和结尾段 On the other hand there are at least as many celebrities whoseaccomplishments make them excellent role models for young people Actors musicians and sports stars become famous idols because they have worked hard and applied themselves to develop real skills and abilities They demonstrate great effort determination and ambition which is required for someone who wants to be truly

hardwork through application Develop talents 发展天赋 Develop skills 提高技能 缺点 不难发现 SIMON 这个段落有很多重复的地方 这就是主体部分两段的 弊端 学生要不断地拓展 有时候也就意味着不断重复 In conclusion it seems to me that the influence ofcelebrities on young people can be positive as well as negative 学习点 1 it seems to me that 表语从句 学习点 2 考官没有写具体的观点 只是说了一下自己的立场 非常简短 学习点 3 有很多同学问我 agree or disagree 的题目是不是一定要支持或 者反对 这个范文的结尾再次告诉我们 折衷的立场是完全没问题的 9 11

do achieve fame without really working for it They may have inherited money from parents married a famous or wealthy person or they may have appeared in gossipmagazines or on a reality TV programme A good example would be Paris Hilton who is rich and famous for the wrong reasons She spends her time attending parties and nightclubs and her behaviour promotes the idea that appearance glamour and
