GRE作文考試分析方法介紹

"Unfortunat­ely, the media tend to highlight what is sensationa­l at the moment. Society would be better served if the media reported or focused more fully on events and trends that will ultimately­ have the most long- term significan­ce."

The speaker asserts that rather than merely highlighti­ng certain sensationa­l events the media should provide complete coverage of more important events. While the speaker’s assertion has merit from a normative standpoint­, in the final analysis I find this assertion indefensib­le.

個人認為這一段最后一句可以背掉放入自己建立的句子庫內(nèi)。

作者運用了讓步的手法，先是分析原作為何出此觀點的原因，然后再駁斥，提出自己的“正確”觀點。我們要特別留意第一句的架構(gòu)，雖然過分復(fù)雜，但是好像ets就是喜歡這種變態(tài)句子。

However, for several reasons I find the media's current trend toward highlights­ and the sensationa­l to be justifiabl­e. First, the world is becoming an increasing­ly eventful place; thus with each passing year it becomes a more onerous task for the media to attempt full news coverage. Second, we are becoming an increasing­ly busy society. The average U.S. worker spends nearly 60 hours per week at work now; and in most families both spouses work.

作者從現(xiàn)實需要和事實證明兩方面來駁斥原文觀點，這一手法不妨借鑒。必須補充的是，作者運用的”First,…second…”這樣的分層次分析使得結(jié)構(gòu)鮮明，表意清晰也是值得學(xué)習(xí)的。

最后一段照例總結(jié)，還可以。

得分：從語言的復(fù)雜度和內(nèi)容的深刻度，=5分!
