雅思口語巧妙使用詞性轉(zhuǎn)換

　　【真題實例】 How can a company encourage its employees?

　　【答題思路】 公司鼓勵員工的方式有很多，《劍六》中專門有一篇閱讀文章，叫Motivating Employees under Adverse Conditions，有興趣的考生可以參考一下。其實光動詞encourage和motivate，就含有不少詞性變換的生機(jī)：encourage → encouragement → encouraging; motivate → motivation → motivational。能把這兩串詞匯用好，就已經(jīng)非常令人刮目相看了。

　　【參考答案】 For employees to really perform well, a company should think about how to encourage them at the workplace. For example, encouragement can come in the form of a big reward for those high achievers, so that they are motivated to work harder in the future. Also, even a public letter of recognition and praise is very encouraging. Sometimes, this kind of motivation can go a longer way than financial incentives. Finally, promoting a good worker to a higher position with greater responsibilities is an effective motivational exercise.

　　三種不同的鼓勵員工的方法在這里被一一道明：

　　第一是豐厚的物質(zhì)獎勵(a big reward);

　　第二是公開的表揚信(a public letter of recognition and praise);

　　第三是職位的晉升(promoting to a higher position)。

　　其間展示的是encourage和motivate這兩大動詞及其名詞、形容詞之間毫無障礙的自由切換。
