題目:有些人喜歡獨自研究功課,另一些人喜歡與一群人一起唸書。
你喜歡怎麼做呢?請寫一篇作文,第一段根據你的觀察說明你選擇的讀書方式為哪一種
第二段則就你的選擇和經驗,具體說明這種方式的好處。
第一步:構思想法、快速列出兩選項的優點,再決定要寫哪個
獨自唸書優點:
1. 安靜、不受打擾
2. 可以按造自己的進度、時間
3. 比較有效率
經驗:
曾經試過一起唸書,結果不好,還是適合自己念
一群人一起唸書優點:
1. 可以討論、有問題立即有人回應
2. 可以分配不同部分,進而了解自己不足的地方
3. 互相激勵
經驗:
每次都跟大家一起唸書,過程很歡樂,有問題也有人能解決,從中發展教人的天份
或是 曾經試過自己念書,發現效率差,無法達到目標,組了讀書會之後,進步很多
第二步:寫大綱、起承轉合
開頭: 有人喜歡自己念,而我喜歡和大家一起
Some people prefer A while I like B ...
Some people enjoy A; however, In my opinion, S + V
承:解釋原因1並給例子,解釋原因2
The first reason is that ....
For example, S + V
Furthermore, S + V
個人經驗(講過去自己唸書失敗):怎樣念都念不好,分數衝不上去
In my experience, ....
As I remember ...
When I was ..., I ...
轉:一起唸書之後的轉變
However, ...
合:一起唸書比較適合自己
In short, ...

第三步:建立 keywords 表
打擾、干擾:distract, disturb, interfere
專注: concentrate on, focus on, stay focused, be immersed in sth
按造自己進度:arrange one's schedule
效率:efficiency
有生產力:productive
組讀書團:form/ organize a studying group
討論: discuss
激勵: inspire
第四步:下筆
先寫一兩句簡短的開頭(introduction)並說明自己的選擇(選一群人):
Some people prefer studying alone, for it’s quiet and they can design their own studying plan that suits them best.
As for me, I favor brainstorming with my companions.
解釋原因(可以討論): The first reason is that it is more efficient for me as I can discuss the questions with each other
and everybody can come up with a variety of opinions, which makes studying less boring but more pleasurable.
舉例: If I study by myself, I will not have partners to consult with.
解釋原因(可分配工作):Secondly, we can form a studying group and each of us can be responsible for different parts that they are best at.
Thus, when gathering together, all members will help give a short summary and key points of the part they are in charge of;
說明好處:by doing so, it helps reinforce my impression and improve efficiency.
Also, I can find my shortage because sometimes it’s hard for a person to see his blind spots if always going alone
個人經驗(講過去自己唸書失敗): In my experience, I used to study alone and I always ranked tenth in our class.
I could not improve no matter how hard I tried.
轉(加入讀書會之後):However, one day, one of my friends invited me to join their study group.
Every day, after the class, we discussed things which teachers had taught in the classes and I could get profits during the discussion.
承接劇情:Two months later, I improved a lot, getting the fifth in my class.
Also, not only did my teachers but also my classmates feel surprised.
合:In short, after beginning studying with classmates, I realized that studying with a group was more suitable for me.
第五步:檢查
1. 時態:發生在過去的事實一率用過去簡單式(S + Ved)、
強調當下的動作則使用過去進行式(S + was/were + Ving)、
用來比較比過去再更過去的用過去完成式(S + had + p.p.)
2. 主詞動詞是否一致
3. 是否出現過多贅字、或是自打臉的情況(例如一下講自己念好,一下又說一群人也不錯)
4. 避免使用重複的字(換句話說)
5. 變換句型:使用倒裝句來強調
Not only did my teachers but also my classmates feel surprised.
形容詞子句:who/that/which 所帶出來不完整的子句,放在要修飾的名詞後面(可作分詞構句)
副詞子句:由形容詞所帶出來,修飾主要句子的子句(可作分詞構句)
名詞子句:由 that/wh-/whether/if 是否 帶出來作為名詞的子句(當一個句子的主詞或受詞)
同學在自己練習寫作的時候,最好還是要找人幫忙批改跟看
這樣才有辦法練到自己看不見得盲點
而上面的範文如果換個角度寫(選擇一個人唸書)你會怎麼下筆呢?
還有沒有更多的優點呢?歡迎留言討論唷!
