小编:长安 321上次天津环球教育李健老师给大家介绍了雅思流程图的写作,今天就让我们一起来看看小作文中的另一难点题型——地图题。
说到地图题,首先就涉及到关于这一题型雅思写作的考试要求:根据所给地图总结并描述同一地理位置在不同时间点的变迁。听起来还挺复杂对吧?其实说白了就是找不同,把发生变化的部分点明即可。
地图题和流程图题的难点类似:图象复杂,信息繁多
所以根据如上难点,在这里给出地图题的审题方法和常用表达。
首先,审题时要注意:先读题目(地图概况)再读图(地图本体、图例、可能存在的比例尺)
其次,在具体成文的之前,要确定以下策略:
设施/布局的主要变化:扩大/缩小、改建、新增/减少
时态(以简单时态为首选并灵活调整):
一般现在时;一般过去时;一般将来时
语态:被动语态可以帮助快速成文
主体段分段:两段(过去与过去;过去与当前;当前与未来)
最后,具体写作时可能存在的难点:
内容分布(第一段简要叙述当前布局即可)
主要特征和具体细节的取舍(总体特征+主要变化)
叙述顺序的确定(以方便叙述以及不易遗漏关键信息为原则)
需要用到的表达:
计划与布局:
plan; projection; blueprint; layout
有关地理位置的叙述:
There be… / be located in / locate / lie
in the north of… / on the north side of
总体布局的扩大
be enlarged
be extended
be expanded
总体布局的缩小
be diminished
be cut
部分设施的替换、改建或翻修
be replaced with / by
be rebuilt
be redeveloped
be reconstructed
be refurbished
The redevelopment / reconstruction / refurbishment about some facilities will be conducted.
某种设施被新增
be built
be constructed
be added to
某种设施被拆除
be removed
be demolished
be erased
有关设施以及设备的名词表达
infrastructures 大规模的基础设施
facilities 小范围的设施或器材
equipment / devices 具体的设备(比如房间中的电视或电脑)
上面是剑13第四套题目中的小作文,根据我们刚才讲到的内容,在成文之前,通过读题读图基本可以确定如下注意事项:
写作内容:大学体育运动中心在未来的变迁
时态选择:一般现在时和一般将来时为主
语态确定:被动语态为主
文章框架
第一段:运用固定句式和替换词改写题目
第二段:简单介绍当前布局
第三段:概括主要变化+不同区域的具体变化
第四段:结合题目做出简单评价
下面给出示例文章
The given plans reveal the current layout of a sports centre in a university and its blueprint after refurbishment.
According to the current layout, the central indoor area involving a swimming pool (25m) which is surrounded by a reception, a changing room, seating area and a gym locates between two outdoor courts.
In the second picture predicting future redevelopment, a lot of newly-built facilities can be seen. Overall, three separated areas will be united as a whole indoor-area and main refurbishment will be conducted in current outdoor courts. We can see the west courts will be replaced by a leisure pool attached with a changing room. For the east area, current outdoor courts will be redeveloped as various indoor fields including a sport hall, two dance studios and a changing room. Also, future plans consider a bigger gym with doubled size, an additional sports shop and a café near the entrance.
This university sports centre will change a great deal so that users can get wider access to diverse facilities.
