老隋点评:作文题目总的来说算是中规中矩,学生并没有无从下笔的感觉,基本上都是人人有话说,即使这样,中国考生的作文分数仍然偏低。原因大概有以下几点:
原因一:轻视小作文。
由于小作文占作文分数的三分之一,大作文占三分之二(part2 carries more weight than part one),很多学生都高度重视大作文,却忽视了小作文的重要性。有些同学平时几乎很少练习小作文(即图表作文),在考场上20分钟内往往写不完,结果挤占了大作文的写作时间。还有一些同学考试时先写大作文后写小作文,因为他们认为大作文更重要,并且在构思上面花费大量时间,所以大作文写超时了。最后,这些同学其实是被小作文拖了后腿。请看:
方案A:小作文5分,大作文6分,写作成绩=5.5
方案B: 小作文6分,大作文5分,写作成绩=5.5
两个方案殊途同归,显然方案B比较容易实现。对于那些写作分数目标是5.5的同学,应该重点提高小作文。
