My hometown is in Hong Kong. It’s located in the south of China. It’s renowned around the globe for its hybrid culture and its status as an international financial hub.
Is there much to do in your hometown?
Yes, there’s certainly a lot to do there as it’s a metropolitan area. If you like hanging out in the evening, there are a variety of top-notch restaurants and pubs. If you want to enjoy the nature, you shall definitely visit the breathtakingbeaches on the outlying islands.
5分的答案: Yes, I always have to work with a lot of people from different departments in my company. I like working with people.
7分的答案: Oh yes, all the time. My office is a big one and we all have to work as a team if we want to achieve results. (提供背景資料: 辦公室情況) I have lots of colleagues I need to liaise with, such as the frontline relationship managers as well as IT programmers. (舉例) And of course, (linking words) I have to deal with our clients sometimes.
上一篇 提到,如果本身英文水準一般,即場發揮容易失準。 迅狐建議,準備一些 百搭的「罐頭答案」 吧。不論問題是什麼,都可以隨手開個罐頭,套入去答,再加些 native speakers常用的linking words ,那就perfect了 。 「罐頭答案」可以關於喜歡的地方、書、電影、敬愛的人、難忘的往事、生活群組等。構思時,嘗試套入最少3個topic答都答到。示範一下: 例一、罐頭答案(生活群組): (Hongkongers) might seem like too busy to socalise as they are living among the hustle and bustle of the city . But if you get to know them, you’ll find most of them are actually pretty friendly and helpful. 基本上,只要題目涉及「生活群組」,就可以融入(自行微調啦) Relevant topics: [Hometown] What are the people like in your hometown? [Friend]: Do you think it is easy to make friends in your city? [Neighbours]: Are neighbours usually close to each other in your country? [Work]: Do you get on well with your colleagues? 例二、罐頭答案(book/moive) 迅狐 建議選一個既有書又有拍電影/電視劇的,e.g. Harry Potter, the Lord of Rings, a Game of Thrones I’m really fond of reading (watching movies). Harry Potter is my all-time favourite . It’s a (a movie b...
IELTS Writing寫作部分首段Introduction (Writing Tasks 1 & 2)和尾段Conclusion (Writing Task 2),分別需要重覆題目和歸納內文論點。 不過,如果多次重覆字眼,Writing Task評分準則中的“lexical resource”部分就會大量扣分。 所以,考生必須掌握以下4招Paraphrasing的技巧,把同義字詞或句子parahrase到耳目一新。 一、同義詞 (synonym) 最簡單的方法,就是用同義詞去替換相同字詞。以下是一些常用例子: .cars = motor vehicles .companies = businesses .teenagers = adolescents .the development = the growth/ expansion of .the government should = the authorities ought to .should not be allowed = should be banned .to put people off from =to deter/prevent people from .solve the problem = resolve the issue .causes = reasons .such as = for instance .beneficial = adventageous .negative impact = detrimental/ damaging/ harmful effect !注意! 對於專有名詞的替換,要很 小心相似而非相同的概念 ,例如town(小城鎮) 不等於city(大城市),vegetarian(會吃雞蛋牛奶等動物產品的素食者)不等於vegan (完全素食者)。 二、改變詞性 (word form) 當然,Paraphrasing不一定是找同義詞的遊戲,如果想不到同義詞,改動詞性也是聰明的做法。 .It is of utmost importance (n.)= It is very important (adj.)… .The plan was implemented (v.) successfully (adv)=The successful (adj) im...
無論是IELTS/ DSE/ GMAT/ GRE/ TOFEL的英文作文部分, 迅狐 認為,靈活利用多元化英文句型,是最有用的特分技巧之一。 因為,如果只用深奧的vocab,但句型卻只能用上最簡單的Subject-Verb-Object (S-V-O) structure,就像一套破舊西裝上面,襯上亮麗的領呔,考官會覺得很awkward。 迅狐 建議,可以利用以下5種特別句型顯示grammar功架(可以準備checklist逐個tick,make sure自己盡用5種句型): 1. Passive voice (被動式) 例句一、Such measures should be quickly adopted to… (= The government should quickly adopt such measures to …) 例句二、 Such problems could be tackled by … (= We can tackle such problems by…) 2. Relative clause : 例句一、The authorities should adopt these measures. These measures can help… → The authorities should adopt these measures which can help… 例句二、The authorities should adopt these measures. Under these measures , citizens can… → The authorities should adopt these measures under which citizens can… 3. Conditionals (If — then): Type 0 (真理): If water reaches 100 °C, it...
