篇1：如何扩大新GRE写作词汇
1. 单词“形义联系”的方向不同。
receptive knowledge的形成取决与在知道一个单词的“长相”的情况下，回忆起单词的“意思”。而productive knowledge则需要训练知道一个意思，找一个具有“合适长相”的单词来表述这个意思。通常情况下，我们在背单词的时候喜欢通过词形去回想词义，因为英语中同义词近义词现象比较严重。
如果要更好的使用高级词汇进行写作，我们需要进行反向的练习。进行关于可以表达一个意思的单词的brainstorming，比如，你可以想一想，可以用来表达“矛盾”的英文词有哪些?这些词该怎么用?
2. productive词汇
即写作词汇，在你的记忆中是和其他很多常用的关联词汇有丰富的联系的，很多单词在你的脑海里都是以这种方式存在的，即language network。当你在写句子的时候，如果你写到这些有关联的词汇的话，这些词汇本身会刺激你想起更多的写作词汇。
一个简单的例子就是，有些时候，我们可能发现自己一直在说费话，但是说话的内容我们自己都不知道。这就是因为这种language network的存在刺激了你在语言中的用词。

GRE词汇解析：qualification
什么是Qualify a statement?
qualify 这个单词简直像一个恶魔一样缠绕着的考GRE的同学们，在填空和阅读中层出不穷。很多同学总是不能够理解这个单词，虽然我们在佛脚词汇表中把它翻译成“通过添加限定条件进行限定”，但是仍然过于抽象，所以今天我给大家举几个例子，来解释什么叫做qualify 。
1. 词典解读
qualify在词典中的解释为
(1) to reduce from a general to a particular or restricted form
(2) to make less harsh or strict
但总之我么能体现出当我们qualify一个东西后他变的没那么强烈了，从更普遍变得更狭窄了。这是什么感觉呢?我们来举两个例子大家 就明白了。
2. 例子来啦
我们看这句话
Taxes on imports are too high.
我们会发现这句话说的很绝对，这句话是在告诉我们进口税就是太高了。而实际情况是这样的么?是所有的产品税都高么?所以这样过于绝对的话会显得不够专业，不够准确，我们来qualify一下。
Oftentimes, taxes on imports are too high.
不要小看这个oftentimes，加上这个单词，我们就完成了对一个过于absolute的论断进行了qualification的过程。因为我们知道并不是在任何时候，税都是高的啦。
常见的qualifier还有：sometimes, most often, most, most likely , appears, seems, suggests, indicates等等。

篇5：GRE写作：词汇积累
GRE写作：词汇积累
1.经常brainstorm可以表达一个特定意思的单词，找尽可能多的单词。
并且制作一个自己的list，上面是以中文意思为索引的同义英文单词，并且反复通过中文意思去回想可能用于表达该意思的英文词。
2.进行meaning negotiation practice
如果你还没有掌握一个单词，你可以进行meaning negotiation practice。在学习一个单词的时候，找很多这个单词的例句，通过例句不断猜测单词的意思，直到你找到了一个可以在所有的例句中都解释的通的意思，然后再去看答案。这种方式会促使你更加注意一个词汇的context和collocation，更加有助于你对于一个单词的language network的形成。
3. 单词进行例句背诵，例句仿写
对于已经学会的单词，如果你想去回炉把它训练成一个你在写作中可以很容易使用的词汇，你可对这个单词进行例句背诵，例句仿写等学习方式。
4. 最后，多读多写
想掌握好写作的用词，你要多读多写。特别是在写作中，刻意的去模仿别人使用高级词汇的例子，最后形成自己的写作风格。
GRE写作满分范文赏析
Six months ago the region of Forestville increased the speed limit for vehicles traveling on the region's highways by ten miles per hour. Since that change took effect, the number of automobile accidents in that region has increased by 15 percent. But the speed limit in Elmsford, a region neighboring Forestville, remained unchanged, and automobile accidents declined slightly during the same six-month period. Therefore, if the citizens of Forestville want to reduce the number of
automobile accidents on the region's highways, they should campaign to reduce Forestville's speed limit to what it was before the increase.
The argument above presents a sound case for arguing that if the region of Forestville wants to reduce the number of automobile accidents on the region's highways, they should consider reducing the speed limit to what it was before the increase in speed limit took place 6 months previously. However, there are some intermediate steps that one could take before jumping to the conclusion that reducing the speed limit is the only way in which traffic accidents can be reduced.
First of all, I would examine the actual number of traffic accidents that occurred before and after the speed limit increase and compare this to the size of the region and its driving population. For example, if the Forestville region's driving population is 1 million people, and the traffic accidents for a 6-month period before the speed increase totaled 100, then the 15% increase would amount to an additional 16 traffic accidents, or 116 total. For a population of 1 million, there may be other solutions to this increase besides reducing the speed limit to what it was. (The comparison to the region of Elmsford would only be helpful if the regions driving demography is comparable in terms of size and scope.) A public education campaign emphasizing driver safety and safe driving techniques may suffice to reduce the number of traffic accidents. Especially considering that if the number of accidents relative to the population is somewhat small, it is a fairly safe driving population anyway.
In addition, I would consider lengthening the time of the study. Six months may be a relatively short period of time for which to study the rate of traffic accidents. Upon a closer examination of when the accidents occurred, one might ascertain that most of the driving accidents occurred within a month of raising the speed limit, but that there have been relatively few additional accidents since that first phase-in period. Lengthening the study to a one-year period would help adjust for any untypical statistics and paint a more accurate picture of the long-term affects of the speed limit increase.
I would also examine what else was occurring in the region during the period of the study. For example, was there a major highway construction project happening during this time which would have added to the unsafe nature of raod travel? Are there any alternative explanations for why the increase in traffic accidents could have occurred, or is the increase in speed limit the sole variable? Looking at the type of accidents that occurred, I would examine whether these are the types of car accidents one would expect from traveling at a faster speed to corroborate the cause and effect relationship. Comments:
As in the sample 6 response, this writer sees some logic in assuming a connection between the higher speed limit in Forestville and the increase in auto accidents. Unlike the sample 6 on this topic, this response is neither as exhaustive in its analysis nor as impressively developed. The writer makes four points in the critique:
-- A statistical analysis might suggest that the 15% increase in accidents is not as significant as it might seem.
-- A car safety education campaign might be a better way to solve the problem.
-- A six month period might be too short a time on which to base major conclusions.
-- Other factors could have caused the increase in accidents.
Although each of these points is developed and sensibly supported, the critique is not sufficiently full to warrant a score of 6. The essay demonstrates good control but not mastery of the elements of writing: it contains good variety in syntax, including effective use of rhetorical questions. The occasional flaws (e.g., the somewhat garbled syntax in paragraph 3: ”.time for which to study the rate???“) do not detract from the overall strong quality of the critique. For all of these reasons, this response is strong but not outstanding, and thus merits a score of 5.

Six months ago the region of Forestville increased the speed limit for vehicles traveling on the region's highways by ten miles per hour. Since that change took effect, the number of automobile accidents in that region has increased by 15 percent. But the speed limit in Elmsford, a region neighboring Forestville, remained unchanged, and automobile accidents declined slightly during the same six-month period. Therefore, if the citizens of Forestville want to reduce the number of automobile accidents on the region's highways, they should campaign to reduce Forestville's speed limit to what it was before the increase.
The agrument is well-presented, but not thoroughly well-reasoned. By making a comparison of the region of Forestville, the town with the higher speed limit and therefore automobile accidents, with the region of Elmsford, an area of a lower speed limit and subsequently fewer accidents, the argument for reducing Forestville's speed limits in order to decrease accidents seems logical.
However, the citizens of Forestville are failing to consider other possible alternatives to the increasing car accidents after the raise in speed limit. Such alternatives may include the fact that there are less reliable cars traveling the roads in Forestville, or that the age bracket of those in Elmsford may be more conducive to driving safely. It is possible that there are more younger, inexperienced, or more elderly, unsafe drivers in Forestville than there are in Elmsford. In addition, the citizens have failed to consider the geographical and physical terrain of the two different areas. Perhaps Forestville's highway is in an area of more dangerous curves, sharp turns, or has many intersections or merging points where accidents are more likely to occur. It appears reasonable, therefore, for the citizens to focus on these trouble spots than to reduce the speed in the entire area. Elmsford may be an area of easier driving conditions where accidents are less likely to occur regardless of the speed limit.
A six-month period is not a particularly long time frame for the citizens to determine that speed limit has influenced the number of automobile accidents in the area. It is mentioned in the argument that Elmsford accidents decreased during the time period. This may have been a time, such as during harsh weather conditions, when less people were driving on the road and therefore the number of accidents decreased. However, Forestville citizens, perhaps coerced by employment or other requirements, were unable to avoid driving on the roads. Again, the demographics of the population are important. It is possible that Elmsford citizens do not have to travel far from work or work from their home, or do not work at all. Are there more people in Forestville than there were sic months ago? If so, there may be an increased number of accidents due to more automobiles on the road, and not due to the increased speed limits. Also in reference to the activities of the population, it is possible that Forestville inhabitants were traveling during less safe times of the day, such as early in the morning, or during twilight. Work or family habits may have encouraged citizens to drive during this time when Elmsford residents may not have been forced to do so.
Overall, the reasoning behind decreasing Forestville's speed limit back to its original seems logical as presented above since the citizens are acting in their own best interests and want to protect their safety. However, before any final decisions are made about the reduction in speed limit, the citizens and officials of Forestville should evaluate all possible alternatives and causes for the increased number of accidents over the six-month period as compared to Elmsford. Comments:
This outstanding response begins by noting that the argument is ”well presented.“ It then proceeds to discuss possible alternative explanations for the increase in car accidents and provides an impressively full analysis. Alternatives mentioned are that
-- the two regions might have drivers of different ages and experience; -- Forestville's topography, geography, cars, and/or roads might contribute to accidents;
-- six months might be an insufficient amount of time for determining that the speed limit is linked to the accident rate; -- demographics might play a role in auto accidents; -- population and auto density should be considered; and
-- the times of day when drivers in the two regions travel might be relevant.
The points are cogently developed and are linked in such a way as to create a logically organized critique. Transitions together with interior connections create a smoothly integrated presentation. For the most part, the writer uses language correctly and well and provides excellent variety in syntax. The minor flaws (e.g., using ”less“ instead of ”fewer") do not detract from the overall high quality of the critique. This is an impressive 6 paper.
