很多同学写英语作文时,一提到”比较”就是 more…than,一提”对比”就是 but… 两个词走天下。不是不对,是太单调了。

📊 厦门灯塔威廉老师批改数据: 在批改的300+篇英语作文中,超过65%的学生在同一篇作文中重复使用”more…than”或”but”超过3次。而使用3种以上比较句型的考生,作文平均分高出2-3分(以15分制计算)。

比较对比写得好,不仅体现语言多样性,在雅思Task 1(图表数据比较)和议论文中更是关键得分点。

基础升级:别再只用 more…than

同一意思,3种表达:

原句(基础)升级句(中级)高级表达
A is more important than B.A outweighs B in importance.A takes precedence over B.
A is bigger than B.A surpasses B in size.A dwarfs B in comparison.
A is better than B.A outperforms B.A is superior to B.

对比结构:从 but 到平行对仗

初级写法:

Some people like studying alone, but others prefer group study.

升级写法(平行结构 + 对比连词):

While some students prefer independent study for its flexibility, others are drawn to group learning for the collaborative dynamic it fosters.

进阶写法(倒装对比):

Unlike solitary learners who value autonomy, group learners thrive on interaction.

雅思Task 1必备:数据比较句式

写图表作文,至少掌握这3类句式:

1. 倍数比较

  • The figure for A is three times as high as that for B.
  • A accounts for twice the percentage of B.

2. 差距描述

  • The gap between A and B widened significantly from 2010 to 2020.
  • A overtook B in 2015 and maintained its lead thereafter.

3. 相似比较

  • A and B followed a similar pattern, both peaking in 2018.
  • The trend for A mirrored that of B, albeit at a lower level.

实战练习

题目: 比较线上教育和传统线下教育

初级版:

Online education is more convenient than traditional education. But traditional education is better for communication.

升级版:

While online education offers unparalleled convenience in terms of flexible scheduling, traditional face-to-face education outperforms its digital counterpart in fostering real-time interaction and spontaneous discussion. The two approaches, rather than competing, complement each other in addressing different learning needs.

区别明显吗?高级版的每个比较都有具体维度(convenience in scheduling vs interaction in discussion),而不是笼统地说”好”或”不好”。

建议

写作文时别一上来就写比较。先把两件事物各自的特点写清楚,比较自然就出来了。比较不是目的——让读者看出你的立场才是目的。
