雅思大作文让步段怎么写

Answer 1

让步段是一种实用性很强的写作段落，
对话题的支持会起到非常好的效果。
根据多年的教
学经验和实践，
笔者发现让步段非常适用于五段式的雅思大作文里。
本文中，
洛基英语考试
研究中心写作组的专家将就让步段的主要写法作一个系统的小结：

一。

五段式中用于第三个主体段

在五段式的大作文中，三个主体段一般都是以
“
单边
”
的方式，
“
一边倒
”
的支持某一个观
点。
而若将最后一个主体段写成让步段，
不仅可以照顾到反方的论点，
而且更有利于进一步
支持和强化本段的观点，从而起到强化论述的效果：

Obviously
，

not every celebrity is generous. Some
，

I am sure
，

keep all their money for
themselves.
But
there
are
people
like
Bill
Gates
who
are
well
known
for
making
donations
，

attending
charitable
functions
and
taking
part
in
a
range
of
activities
that
support
people
less
fortunate than themselves.

在写让步段的时候，我们必须要使用表
“
转折
”
的连词，常用的有
but
，

however
，

nevertheless
，

nonetheless
等。有时候我们还可以使用让步状语从句来引导让步段，涉及的
连词有：
despite
，

in
spite
of
，

although
，

though
，

even
though
，

even
if
等。在上面这
个例子中，
我们看到作者用了
2
个简单句来描写反面的观点，
对于用来描写反面观点的句子，
朗阁海外考试研究中心建议一般以
1
—
3
句话为宜，而转折后的句子，通常在长度上要超过
前面的句子。下面我们再来看一个让步段：

题目：
Very few school children learn about the value of money and how to look after it
，

yet
this is a critical life skill that should be taught as part of the school curriculum. Do you agree with
this statement?

It is possibly true that schools could try to make children understand the importance of all
these areas
，

but children are young and cannot look into the future or predict the skills that
they will need.

上面这个让步段非常简洁，
请注意作者使用的句型：
“It is possibly true
that.
。
.”
，
这是我
们在让步段里经常用来开头的句型。下面我们再来看看如何用让步状语从句引导让步段：

Although
watching
TV
or
playing
computer
games
do
enrich
children’s
spare
time
and
broaden their horizon to some extent
，

a sedentary lifestyle reduces healthy outdoor activities
and
will
have
long-term
medical
consequences
for
children.
An
increasing
number
of
children
suffer
from
obesity
and
near-sightedness
as
a
result
of
spending
too
much
time
in
front
of
a
flashing screen.

在这个段落中，
作者使用了让步状语从句，
在继续论述
“
久坐
”
的生活方式对孩子健康方
面的弊端前，先说了一下它的优点，
进而反驳，从而起到了鲜明的对比反差效果，
突出了这

种生活方式对孩子健康造成的巨大伤害。

二。

五段式每段都用让步段

这种写法属于非主流写法，
需要考生具备一定的写作功底，
对论点的把握火候得当。
这
种写法类似于新托福中综合写作里质疑论据合理性的写法。
对于志在高分的同学来说可以尝
试一下，下面我们就来看一个例子：

Those
against
the
use
of
animal
testing
claim
that
it
is
inhumane
to
use
animal
in
experiments.
I
disagree
completely.
It
would
be
much
more
inhumane
to
test
new
drugs
on
children
or
adults.
Even
if
it
were
possible
，

it
would
also
take
much
longer
to
see
potential
effects
，

because of the length of time we live compared to laboratory animals such as rats or
rabbits.

Opponents of animal testing also claim that the results are not applicable to humans. This
may
be
partly
true.
Some
drugs
have
had
to
be
withdrawn
，

despite
testing.
However
，

we
simply do not have alternative methods of testing. Computer models are not advanced enough
，

and testing on plants is much less applicable to humans than tests on animals such as monkeys.
Until we have a better system
，

we must use animal testing.

A
further
point
often
raised
against
animal
testing
is
that
it
is
cruel.
Some
of
the
tests
certainly seem painful
，

but the great majority of people on this planet eat meat or wear leather
without any guilt. Where is their sympathy for animals? Furthermore
，

animals clearly do not feel
the same way as humans
，

and scientists are careful to minimize stress in the animals
，

since this
would damage their research.

这篇作文是关于是否应该拿动物做实验的话题。
作者是支持继续拿动物做实验的，
在他
的每个主体段中，
他都是先讲了反对者的一个观点，
然后再反驳。
请密切关注下作者在每个
主体段首句中使用的句型：
“Those
against.
。
.
claim
that.
。
.”;“Opponents
of
。
..
also
claim
that.
。
.”;“A further point often r
aised against
。
.. is that.
。
.”
。前
2
句为宾语从句，最后一句为
表语从句。从主语的选择上作者也花了心思，分别在第一句和第二句使用了不同单词组合，
但是意思是一致的。
因此朗阁海外考试研究中心建议大家不妨在一开始写主体段首句的时候
先模仿他的这种写法。
接下来我们再来看看次句的句型：
“I disagree completely”;“This may be
partly
true”;“Some
of
the
。
..
，

but.
。
.”
。这三组句型同样做到了抑扬顿挫，第一个句子语
气最强，而后二个句子语气明显递减。对于这种安排，笔者认为并非一定要按照他的模式，
这取决于你在三个段落中的观点的排列，
但是一般来说，
语气最强的或者最重要的那个观点，
要么放在第一段写，
要么放到最后一段里写。
笔者推荐将最重要的观点放在第一个主体段里
论述。

综上所述，
让步段已经俨然成为了目前五段式大作文的常用段落发展方式，
希望洛基英
语以上的讨论对大家在写让步段时有所启迪。
