想寫好雅思小作文，還愣著幹嘛？收藏呀

來自專欄 51xiaochu雅思寫作

為收集那麼多小作文辭彙，

我都不記得自己花了多久...

相比雅思大作文，小作文寫作，

真的需要一些單詞積累，否則你寫出來的文章，

兩個字既可以概括：枯燥！

就像考官問你，早上吃了什麼？

你回答說，1個包子，1杯果汁，

果汁是用昨晚吃剩下的半個梨榨的汁，

包子是今天早上隔壁鄰居買多了送我的...

什麼鬼！編不下去了...

如果你能像我這樣富含想像力的把後兩句完成，

是不是要比你簡簡單單說出事實，印象深刻很多？

所以，想寫好小作文，除了表達要有邏輯之外，

更需要辭彙的輔助。

小作文中關於「變化」的描述

許多同學最常遇到的問題，

就是上升下降的單詞積累不足。

先給你張圖吧，收好了，別再反反覆復問了。

什麼？還不夠用...

你怎麼辣么貪心呢？

好吧，那我再給你一份更全的(點擊查看大圖)

這些單詞到底怎麼用呢？

下面給你一些例子，更多用法，

請你花點時間去詞典上找一找，這點懶可偷不得。

1. The overall sale of the company increased by 20% at the end of the year.

2. The expenditure of the office remained constant for the last 6 months but the profit rose by almost 25%.

3. There was a 15% drop in the ratio of student enrollment in this University.

4. The population of the country remained almost the same as it was 2 years ago.

5. The population of these two cities increase significantly in the last two decades and it is expected that it will remain stable during the next 5 years.

下面再給你一張直觀的曲線與描述對應圖。

我很肯定，上面這些內容，你應該可以掌握得不錯。

但下面提到的「程度」詞，也許你還不夠精通，

趕緊收藏好，慢慢背下來。

這些詞怎麼用，照樣給你一些例子參考：

1. The economic inflation of the country increased sharply by 20% in 2008.

2. There was a sharp drop in the industrial production in the year 2009.

3. The demand for new houses dramatically increased in 2002.

4. The population of the country dramatically increased in the last decade.

5. The price of the oil moderately increased in last quarter but as a consequence, the price of daily necessity rapidly went up.

仔細的你，應該注意到上上一張圖中右下角，

那張頻繁上下震蕩的折線圖，這又該怎麼描述呢？

使用例句：

1. The price of the goods fluctuated during the first three months in 2017.

2. The graph shows the oscillations of the price from 1998 to 2002.

3. The passenger number in this station oscillates throughout the day and in early morning and evening, it remains busy.

4. The changes of car production in Japan shows a palpitation for the second quarter of the year.

5. The number of students in debate clubs fluctuated in different months of the year and rapid ups and downs could be observed in the last three months of this year,

最後，還有一些程度上變化的形容詞與副詞

這樣來看，能算是比較完整的了。
