查尔斯·狄更斯|GCSE考试如何写出一篇惊艳考官的Essay?( 五 )


04、如何惊艳考官的小技巧
将你正在学习的文章中的单词或短语直接“整合”到你自己的句子中(当然仍然使用引号)是一种有用的技巧 。
不要过度使用这种技巧 , 也要谨慎使用 , 使用“嵌入式”引文可以帮助创造一种令人印象深刻的风格 , 表明你对文章和作文问题有很好的掌握 。
以下是一些示例 , 其中嵌入的引文已被整合到学生的解释中 。 第一个来自约翰斯坦贝克的小说“Of Mice and Men”的开头:
"'Small and quick' George is presented by Steinbeck as a character in complete contrast to his friend, the lumbering and 'shapeless' Lennie....".

以下是 J B Priestley 的“An Inspector Calls”的嵌入引文:
"As the Inspector says, 'We don't live alone' and this is an important message Priestley gives his audience...".
并使用约翰阿加德的诗“Half-Caste”:
"Perhaps Agard also wants his reader to 'come back tomorrow' with a different attitude towards those they might feel are in any way different from themselves....".
另外 , 请避免重述故事 。
这是一个使用威廉莎士比亚戏剧“罗密欧与朱丽叶”的例子 。 以下是“The Chorus”所说的“Prologue”的前两行:
'Two households, both alike in dignity, In fair Verona, where we lay our scene...'
以下是对故事的重述 , 避免分析作者使用的方法(= 低分):
'Here, Shakespeare is saying that the play is set in Verona where there are two dignified families.'
将此与分析性评论(=高分)进行比较:
'I would like to argue that the opening lines of the Prologue can be considered important because they paint a picture for the audience of what could and should be - fairness and dignity. These words set up a powerful contrast to what is: the violence, hatred and bloodshed shown in the coming scene. It will be against this violent backdrop that the pure love of Romeo and Juliet will have to struggle.'
希望上面的内容对同学们在写英文作文时有实质性的帮助 , 理解文章、考试题目 , 并通过反复练习 , 获得好成绩 。
