考研英语大作文是考生之间拉开分差的一个题项,其中对比图类写作又是最可以用模板来套的一类写作,今天小编就分享给大家考研英语大作文对比图类佳句举例。
原文:Two pictures illustrate a story concerning people and food. The first picture portrays a historical scene: an extremely hungry man was looking longingly at an empty broken bowl, bitterly disappointed that there was no food to eat. In contrast, the second picture reflects what is currently happening. A man, anxious about food quality, hesitates to choose among a wide variety of foods in exquisite bowl.
单词和短语亮点:illustrate,描述;concerning,关于;portray,描绘;historical scene,历史性一幕;look longingly at,充满渴望地望着;empty broken bowl,又空又破的碗;bitterly,痛苦地;in contrast,相反(与前者形成鲜明对比);reflect,反映;hesitate to do,踌躇去做;a wide variety of 各式各样的,各种各样的;exquisite,精美的,精致的。
句式分析:第二句话用到了冒号,用于解释和补充,冒号后面的bitterly disappointed that there was no food to eat为形容词作状语,其后面又是that引导的宾语从句作disappointed的宾语; 最后一句话,anxious about food quality为插入语,导致主谓分离。
总结:上文是对两幅对比图画的描述,描写细致但又紧扣核心内容:突出随着时间的发展,食物在增多,人的表情也在变化。考生在自己描述图片时,也要注意到这些,不能太过粗略,也不能太过精细,以免不能突显核心思想。所以,研友们需记住:**段的描述要细致但又要紧扣核心。另外,描述对比类图片,就必须用到对比类词汇和短语,在本文中,in contrast就非常关键。其他表对比的词汇和短语还有:
1) while, whereas
2) by(in) contrast, on the other hand, in comparison, conversely
首先,第1)组的两个词都是连词,表示含有“对比”的转折。其用法应该是:A句,while/ whereas B句,如:
American consumers prefer white eggs, while/ whereas British buyers like brown eggs.
其次,第2)组的短语或词都是副词性的(短语是副词性短语),表示含有“对比”的转折。其用法应该是:A句,By contrast( on the other hand/ In comparison/ Conversely), B句。
如: American consumers prefer white eggs. Conversely, British buyers like brown eggs.
