考生须知:新GRE考试作文的评分标准

03-09

标签: GRE作文标准

 

  很多考生自认为gre作文写的很不错,但是最后都得不了很高的分数,这是为什么呢?其实,可能一些考生还不太了解gre作文评分标准,如果知道了考官对gre作文评分标准,那么只要在写作的时候按着这种标准写,肯定会得高分的。

  gre作文评分标准(重要性依次递减)

  A 6 paper presents a cogent, well-articulated analysis of the complexities of the issue and conveys meaning skillfully.

  A typical paper in this category:

  presents an insightful position on the issue;

  develops the position with compelling reasons and/or persuasive examples;

  sustains a well-focused, well-organized analysis, connecting ideas logically;

  expresses ideas fluently and precisely, using effective vocabulary and sentence variety;

  demonstrates facility with the conventions(i.e., grammar, usage, and mechanics) of standard written English but may have minor errors.

  1. complexity:事物的两面性(同一事物有优点就有缺点,相比较的事物有各自的优缺点),从多角度分析事物(分析不同领域中,不同情况下)。论点一边倒的文章论述得再好也只能得5分。

  2.insightful position:在有全面深刻理解的基础上,观点最好新颖独到(对ets来说),但必须保证能自圆其说。5分文的要求是well-considered position,因此只要求多论述几个理由,多考虑几个方面,表明你确实好好思考过,而不强求对论述题目有全面深刻的认识。看看ets范文的3篇5分文,你就能感觉的它们和6分文在思考深刻全面上的差距。所以,若对某方面论题不了解,还有一个月就要上考场的话,就不必花大时间饿补相关知识,只需看看别人的提纲,结合自己肚里的东西(足够),整理出自己的提纲,考场上有条理性的加以论证。但切记,既然在这个给分点上你已经失去了优势,就应该在其他给分点下功夫:论述结构,论证技巧以及语言运用(参看本文其他部分的分析)。

  3. conveys meaning skillfully:可用于论证的一切技巧(估计老美自己用起来也得费点心思)。比如文章的行文方向,起承转合不用明显的标志词(first, second, however, on the other hand, the second example illustrating my point),而是依靠论述的内在脉络(只可意会不可言传)自然而然的引到下一块内容。总之是看不到transitional phrase...

  issue:

  The main benefit of the study of history is to dispel the illusion that people living now are significantly different from people who lived in earlier times.

  argument:

  Collectors prize the ancient life-size clay statues of human figures made on Kali Island but have long wondered how Kalinese artists were able to depict bodies with such realistic precision. Since archaeologists have recently discovered molds of human heads and hands on Kali, we can now conclude that the ancient Kalinese artists used molds of actual bodies, not sculpting tools and techniques, to create these statues. This discovery explains why Kalinese miniature statues were abstract and entirely different in style: molds could be used only for life-size sculptures. It also explains why few ancient Kalinese sculpting tools have been found. In light of this discovery, collectors predict that the life-size sculptures will decrease in value while the miniatures increase in value.

  issue:

  for college students, is it beneficial to spend at least one semester studying abroad?

  argument:

  The following appeared in a letter from the owner of the Sunnyside Towers apartment complex to its manager.

  “One month ago, all the showerheads in the first three buildings of the Sunnyside Towers complex were modified to restrict maximum water flow to one-third of what it used to be. Although actual readings of water usage before and after the adjustment are not yet available, the change will obviously result in a considerable savings for Sunnyside Corporation, since the corporation must pay for water each month. Except for a few complaints about low water pressure, no problems with showers have been reported since the adjustment. I predict that modifying showerheads to restrict water flow throughout all twelve buildings in the Sunnyside Towers complex will increase our profits even more dramatically.

如何备考新gre考试作文

  改革后的新gre考试作文issue时间由原来的45分钟下降到30分钟,这让很多考生为之头疼,如何才能备考好新gre考试作文呢?下面是新gre考试达人为大家剖析的有关新gre写作。

  很多考新G的版友可能会觉得,考试的形式改变了,题目也换了,从前的经验还能够作为参考吗?面对新出现的要求,是一成不变地思考还是需要换一种新的模式呢?对于新出现的陌生题型,我们的破题之路在哪里?等等,种种对于陌生考试的忧虑和不解。

  GRE写作一直以来都是广大版友的一块心病。作为非native speaker我们对语言的驾驭能力本来就是有限的,现在却还要在写出文章的基础上加入严密而完整的逻辑思考无形中增加了考试难度。在漫长的学业生涯中,我们的英语作文从来都是200字之类over的,现在突然一下子动辄400字,500字地写,真的是让我们无所适从,这多出来的300多字我们写什么呀?大家看到这里都会觉得这个考试真是折磨人,更BT的在后面,还要在这基础上加上时间限制——30min for all。30min要写出4、500字并且逻辑严密的议论文?!老G时代,Issue 有45min,Argument有 30min的情况下,还是有很多人只能在规定时间完成全文的三分之二。现在时间下降到了30min,平白少了15min的写作时间呀,任谁都会觉得头大。

  有很多版友在纠结,新GRE时代,前人的财富贬值了吗?我的答案是否定的。你信不信?反正我是信了(just kidding)。"The analytical writing assesses your critical thingking and analytical writing skills. It assesses your ability of articulate and support complex ideas, contruct and evaluate arguments, and sustain a focused and coherent discussion. It does not assess special content knowledge." 这段Analytical Writing的卷首语表明GRE作文的核心思想依旧没有改变。

  再看评分标准:

  1、follow the instructions of the prompt

  2、consider the complexities of the issue or argument

  3、effectively organize and develop your ideas

  4、support your position with relevant examples

  5、control the elements of written English

  除了红色新增项其余要求与从前无二。而对于新增instruction的定位,ETS也明确表示起作用是“提示”,而不是“限制”。这些instruction从一定意义上来说确实给部分考生增加了难度——模版不再是“万精油”。在旧...

新gre考试作文3.5考生经验分享

  下面是小编为大家搜索整理的有关新gre考试作文3.5考生经验分享,通过此考生分享的新gre考试作文经验,考生可以借鉴里面的复习过程,给自己的写作找一些思路和灵感。

  先声明,这篇水贴仅依靠两个月后的回忆,重点应该不会错,有兴趣看的请拿着OG对应看下去

  本人菜鸟一枚,曾经考过1170的高分,第二次(新G)也仅有1270.不过通过申请发现3.5似乎是一个门槛。因此就交流一下作文3.5的心得(第二次作文准备只看了一下午OG加一早上题目)。

  和大部分理工男一样,曾经听说作文3分即够,教授们也说是人就能得3分。但考完申请时才知道3.5虽然算不上什么优势,但有时有着重要作用。所以,作文可以少投入时间,但最好不要轻视。

  废话不多讲,首先,OG的重要性毋庸置疑,但有几个人认真看过OG作文以及分析?当你看过A/I的三分作文后,肯定觉得自己的水平高于3分的范文。为什么不能更高?很多人觉得是内容,但我感觉是形式(仅对3分想超短期提高到3.5的朋友)。想更高,练吧。。。

  1、Argument:

  我水平差,结果第一次写了个很标准的3.0(平均分)作文。其实如果用心听课的同学会发现,教授们并没有实际区分出3和3.5的根本区别,去看看5分的A你就知道语言没有他们说的那么夸张,至于重要谬误,我感觉差别不大,经过短期训练就能准确找到谬误。不信可以看看OG的满分或5分范文找谬误,其实感觉他们的思维挺奇怪的,这些范文的寻错思维对我这种比较菜的很难模仿的。

  那么重要就是格式了,首先,我们都被训练成不看题的高手了。有谁会写作文时看总的写作要求,如果你没看过,认真看两遍。看到题中说提供evidence去evaluate作者的结论或是陈述。那你写的文章中提过evidence或者evaluate这俩词吗?再看看范文中每段是否都有?我过去是这么写的(有可能你也是):“作者在这说错了,错误是。。。如果这样的话就会。。。”或是“即使作者之前是对的,那么他这么说也不行,因为。。。很有可能。。。”你发现这里面有evidence或者evalute吗?如果没有,那么你就有提分的空间了,至于具体怎么围绕这两个词写,看范文吧~我也记不清了。。

  2、Issue:

  我这部分很可能没第二次提分,我当时只用了一下午时间看,主要看的是A,但对I也有点小小的想法。我唯一能建议的是去看看I的3分范文,你很可能会发现自己写的在结构和思路上就是标准3分的,这时,你整篇GRE词汇加长难句也很难突破这个思路。至于提分策略,我是短期从结构上修改,但根本还是思路,可以看看高手的帖子~

  希望对大家有帮助!

  以上即是新gre考试作文考生3.5经验分享,2011新gre考试作文考察考生是否能够融合批判性思维和分析写作能力。备考新gre考试作文时一定要踏实复习或者看看范文,加强语言功底的同时还要善于思考分析。

  The surest indicator of a great nation is represented not by the achievements of its rulers, artists, or scientists, but by the general welfare of its people.

  argument:

  The following appeared in a health newsletter.

  "A ten-year nationwide study of the effectiveness of wearing a helmet while bicycling indicates that ten years ago, approximately 35 percent of all bicyclists reported wearing helmets, whereas today that number is nearly 80 percent. Another study, however, suggests that during the same ten-year period, the number of bicycle-related accidents has increased 200 percent. These results demonstrate that bicyclists feel safer because they are wearing helmets, and they take more risks as a result. Thus, to reduce the number of serious injuries from bicycle accidents, the government should concentrate more on educating people about bicycle safety and less on encouraging or requiring bicyclists to wear helmets."

  If a goal is worthy, then any means taken to attain it are justifiable.

  Write a response in which you discuss the extent to which you agree or disagree with the statement and explain your reasoning for the position you take. In developing and supporting your position, you should consider ways in which the statement might or might not hold true and explain how these considerations shape your position.

  argument:56

  The following appeared in a memo from the vice president of marketing at Dura-Sock, Inc.

  "A recent study of our customers suggests that our company is wasting the money it spends on its patented Endure manufacturing process, which ensures that our socks are strong enough to last for two years. We have always advertised our use of the Endure process, but the new study shows that despite our socks' durability, our average customer actually purchases new Dura-Socks every three months. Furthermore, our customers surveyed in our largest market, northeastern United States cities, say that they most value Dura-Socks' stylish appearance and availability in many colors. These findings suggest that we can increase our profits by discontinuing use of the Endure manufacturing process."

  issue:

  Some people claim that you can tell whether a nation is great by looking at the achievements of its rulers, artists, or scientists. Others argue that the surest indicator of a great nation is, in fact, the general welfare of all its people.

  argument:

  According to a recent report, cheating among college and university students is on the rise. However, Groveton College has successfully reduced student cheating by adopting an honor code, which calls for students to agree not to cheat in their academic endeavors and to notify a faculty member if they suspect that others have cheated. Groveton's honor code replaced a system in which teachers closely monitored students; under that system, teachers reported an average of thirty cases of cheating per year. In the first year the honor code was in place, students reported twenty-one cases of cheating; five years later, this figure had dropped to fourteen. Moreover, in a recent survey, a majority of Groveton students said that they would be less likely to cheat with an honor code in place than without. Thus, all colleges and universities should adopt honor codes similar to Groveton's in order to decrease cheating among students.

  All college and university students would benefit from spending at least one semester studying in a foreign country.

  argument:

  The following appeared in a health magazine published in Corpora.

  "Medical experts say that only one-quarter of Corpora's citizens meet the current standards for adequate physical fitness, even though twenty years ago, one-half of all of Corpora's citizens met the standards as then defined. But these experts are mistaken when they suggest that spending too much time using computers has caused a decline in fitness. Since overall fitness levels are highest in regions of Corpora where levels of computer ownership are also highest, it is clear that using computers has not made citizens less physically fit. Instead, as shown by this year's unusually low expenditures on fitness-related products and services, the recent decline in the economy is most likely the cause, and fitness levels will improve when the economy does."
