* 地圖,選自2021.3.20筆試真題回憶
閱讀提示:
* 選擇合適的視角寫作:1)俯瞰視角(“上帝視角”的常規(guī)寫法)對應(yīng)“東南西北”;2)移步換景(“訪客”視角)對應(yīng)的“前后左右”和“東南西北”;3)混合視角。
本題路線不復(fù)雜,考慮第2)種視角,新穎且好寫。
* 嘗試將后一張圖比較前一張圖寫作,而不是依次分開寫兩圖布局。
* 確保寫清方位,因此,不建議只用 next to, adjacent to, opposite to等方位模糊的表述。
Shown in the pair of maps is how Bell Hill Farm had been renovated into Environment Centre from 1976 to 2006. Overall, the changes were evident.
In 2006, visitors, after driving northwards along the T-shaped road west to the farm, would no longer find the original warehouse for storing farm machinery but instead park their cars in the parking lot that was situated in the northwest corner. Then, they could wander across the road till the central area of the 2006 centre, where a farmhouse stood still. As the visitors roamed northwards further from the farmhouse, they could unwind themselves in a multimedia room located in the recreation area, [同位語解釋] the replacement of the previous farmyard with barns for piling crops like corn. In addition, the area east of the central farmhouse also had experienced a tremendous change. Where there used to be sheds for raising cows and coops for rearing chicken, there featured student housing for accommodation in 2006.
* 不用強(qiáng)調(diào)remain unchanged,一些小詞副詞也能達(dá)成寫作目的。
* 對比發(fā)生變化的部分是該寫法的重難點(diǎn),注意揣摩:如何在一句話中既能描述清楚方位,又能寫清兩時(shí)間點(diǎn)的變化,比較考驗(yàn)語法和句型的使用。
* 注意時(shí)態(tài):單純對于過去時(shí)間點(diǎn)的描述——一般過去時(shí);強(qiáng)調(diào)兩個(gè)時(shí)間點(diǎn)的對比——過去完成時(shí)。
* 注意符合場景的不同“走”的替換表達(dá):wander, roam, stroll
* unwind vi. 放松,松弛:放棄relax這個(gè)詞吧
* shed n. 養(yǎng)家畜的棚;coop n. 養(yǎng)禽類的籠
* rear vt. 飼養(yǎng)(動(dòng)物) = raise vt.
* feature vt. 以…為特色
Overall, there had been vast changes in all the facilities except the farmhouse, and the function of the area had been totally converted from a farm to an entertainment centre.
