TOEFL WRITING 寫作轉換詞技巧

 

1. 同義進義詞轉換
寫作時欲表達某些使用頻率高之詞彙時可適度運用同義詞或近義詞進行改寫替換,俾使其文句多樣化。
例如於整合寫作(Integrated Writing) 時, writer / author / lecturer / professor 表達觀點時避免僅用 say, think , believe, 此時我們可用claim / argue / assert / declare / contend / maintain / hold / consider / deem / affirm / insist / take the view 等。
或欲表達近來之時間狀況用nowadays, 亦可寫成recently / currently / at present / in recent years / these days / lately 等。
此外若表示important, 則可利用 critical / crucial / vital / pivotal / momentous / monumental / significant / essential 等與之互換。

2. 詞彙詞性轉換
n. → adj.
interesting  = be of interest
important = be of importance
v. → n.before the civil war broke out = prior to the outbreak of the civil war
adj. → n.plentiful natural resources = plenty of natural resources

3. 轉承語 (transition words) 之轉換
承接詞不僅連接句子與句子,亦可連接段落與段落。 運用其同義之轉承語詞, 有助於寫作更加突出非凡。
however → while / whereas / still / yet / nevertheless / nonetheless
because of → due to / owing to / thanks to / on account of / since / because / as / for
so → therefore / hence / thus / as a result / as a consequence / consequently / accordingly

4. 形容詞之逆向表達 
利用文意之反向呈現其程度變化使其比尋常的效果。
e.g. :  
not as easy as… → more difficult than…
not uncommon → common
the cheapest  → the least expensive

5. 句型結構多樣性 (syntactic variety)
托福寫作評分標準中多元多樣之句型結構是極為重要的評分要求, 因此務必力求句型結構豐富多變。

(1) It …. 
It is argued / expected / believed / believed that ……
It is apparent / obvious / striking that …..
It is undeniable that …..

(2) 倒裝句
(a) So + adj. / adv. + V + S … that …….
(b) Were + S ….., S + would / should / could / might ……
(c) Should + S + V , S + would / should / could / might ……
(d) Had + S + P.P., S + would / should / could / might + have +P.P.
(e) Only when …….. + V + S
(f) Only ……. + V + S
