GRE作文：写作词汇要学会替换，避免重复用词

GRE写作用词重复会扣多少分?

有人可能会问，写作用词重复问题有这么严重吗?真的出现这种情况会扣多少分呢?按照GRE作文的评分标准，遣词造句方面的分值在1-1.5分左右，而用词重复如果导致扣分，那么至少会扣掉0.5-1分，也就是说，本来属于高分的4分作文，因为用词问题，很可能直接就会掉到中国考生的写作平均分3分的水平，而中国考生作文平均分在全球GRE考生中向来是偏低的，因此在这个部分扣分就意味着你的作文得分直接掉了个档次，可以说是比较严重的问题了。

GRE写作用词单调原因分析

为什么不少考生会在GRE写作中出现用词单调的问题呢?原因主要有以下几点：

1. 考生本身词汇量不足

这是最常见导致写作用词单调的原因。考生本身掌握的词汇量就偏少，又没有专门训练或者背诵过写作用词，看的范文数量也不够，准备不足之下自然没办法写出五花八门的词汇来，所谓巧妇难为无米之炊，即是如此。

2. 有词汇量但不会用

作为一名合格的GRE考生来说，背诵大量的词汇是必须的。然而，考生对于背单词的要求却存在一些问题。不少人对GRE词汇背诵的要求只停留在混个脸熟，能看懂或者大致了解含义就行，而少有考生去细究词汇在句子中的具体用法。这也就导致了考生虽然认识很多单词，看着词汇量挺大，但真到使用的时候，还是只会用那几个常用的老词。

3. 没把握不敢使用

有些考生可能的确意识到了背单词要学会使用的重要性，也掌握了一些新词的使用方法，但因为缺乏练习，或者没有人帮助批改审核，因此不敢在实际写作中运用这些词汇，觉得没有把握，生怕用错，所以饶了一圈，到头来还是只能走求稳路线，反复使用旧词。

如何避免用词重复问题

既然知道了用词重复问题发生的原因，那么对应的解决方案也就十分明确了。考生需要做的有两点：

1. 储备写作用词汇

首先如果是词汇量不足的问题，那么大家就要开始有意识地积累一些词汇了，特别是专门用于写作的词汇，小编建议各位考生可以多参考一下官方或者权威机构出版的GRE作文高分范文或是黄金素材类的资料，从中收集一些自己不太用但在范文中出现频率较高的词汇，这些词汇不仅适用于写作，还能带来高分，有很高的实用价值，大家多积累一些这方面的词汇在写作中和自己的习惯用词多做替换，会起到不错的效果，丰富文章的展现形式。

2. 实际运用词汇

其次假如考生是因为不敢用新词而产生问题，那么之后要做的就是多练笔了，大家可以不用进行完整的写作练习，而是把注意力放在练习词汇替换上，去找一些自己写过的文章，用意思相同相近的词汇进行替换，假如对词汇用法没有把握，通过查字典找例句或者通过论坛QQ群等方式求助他人确定其用法，充分掌握词汇的正确用法，如此一来自然能够在考试中放心大胆地用上新词，提升作文用词质量。

新GRE写作范文：竞争利弊问题

题目：

"Competition is ultimately more beneficial than detrimental to society."

归根结底，竞争对于社会是利多弊少。

正文：

Darwin suggested that the process of evolution is one based on competition. This deadly competition weeds out the weak and only the fittest of the species survives. Humans, being the product of millions of years of evolution, are by nature, competitive beings. Yet, humans are also social beings. Like the bees in the hive, we are not very successful living completely on our own. We need to cooperate with other individuals for our survival. Thus, a conflict ensues, between our innate competitiveness, and our need to cooperate. There are pros and cons associated with both. However, it is my belief that overall, competition, is more detrimental than beneficial to human society.

First, let us try to identify why there is competition in the first place. In an environment abundant with resources, where supply outstrips demand, there is very little need for the inhabitants to fight with each other over them. This is not the case on planet earth. Resources are limited, and there is constant jostling to get to the front of the queue to get acquire them. For example, thousands of prospective students apply to gain entrance to top universities around the world, but there are only a handful of places in those universities. Thus, there is competition to get into to these hallowed institutions of higher learning.From a utilitarian perspective, competition is a good thing. In evolution it is responsible for the elimination of "weak" genes. In the business environment, it gets rid of the weaker players. In politics, it weeds out unpopular candidates. In academia, it gets rid of weak students.

Furthermore, competition leads to self improvement. Businesses will strive to offer better products and services at lesser prices. The consumer reaps rich rewards from this competitive spirit. Politicians strive to do the utmost for the people, so they would get reelected. Students excel in there studies, trying to outdo each other.

Thus, ostensibly, competition is responsible for the betterment of the society as a whole. However, this is just the superficial view. Underneath the surface, competition, in every aspect, is slowly eating away at the very fabric of the society.

While it is true to say that competition in corporate world has brought great benefits to the consumer, the society as "Missed A here"whole is playing a great price for it. Most businesses are exploiting cheap labour in the third world to maximise their profits. There are thousands of sweatshops run by well known western corporations in countries like Indonesia, Bangladesh and China. People are forced to work in squalid conditions, often 16 hours a day. They are lucky to receive a dollar a day for there labours. The moment a government in any of these countries try to improve the working conditions of the employees, these multinational giants flee the country, often leaving whole communities facing financial ruin. The corporations are aware that there are plenty of other labour markets that could be exploited with gay abandon.

That is just the human cost. What about the environmental costs? Competition has forced many corporations to "stream line" their operations. Environmental standards are normally the first victims of this "stream line" process. A significant amount of environmental pollution and land degradation has been blamed on industry, yet the factories keep producing more and more. Thousands of items go unsold each year due to competition. Only a fraction of this merchandise is recycled. The rest goes to the already overflowing landfills.

In politics, the detrimental effects of competition are blatant. Politicians often resort to popular yet socially damaging policies to gain votes. These measures include imprudent spending to rabble rousing. The current volatility in Israel and Palestine, the ethnic conflict in Sri Lanka, and the famine in Zimbabwe are all, at least partially, problems created by politicians to get elected.

It has been said that education is one sphere where competition has always had a beneficial influence. Even this claim is dubious. Due to competition students are less likely to exchange ideas with one another, thus enriching the student population as whole. Furthermore, competition drives students to study well to pass exams, but not to gain wisdom. Students spend many hours preparing for standardised tests; tests which many believe are inherently flawed. Thus, it is often not the most intellectual student who succeeds, but the most competitive.

Competition is an inborn human trait. It has some positive qualities, but overall, it does far more harm than help to the society. As intelligent beings, humans can transcend their evolutionary weaknesses. Thus, humans should rely less competition and more cooperation for the sake of the society.

新版GRE写作新题库：Argument

题目：

The following appeared in a health magazine.

"The citizens of Forsythe have adopted more healthful lifestyles. Their responses to a recent survey show that in their eating habits they conform more closely to government nutritional recommendations than they did ten years ago. Furthermore, there has been a fourfold increase in sales of food products containing kiran, a substance that a scientific study has shown reduces cholesterol. This trend is also evident in reduced sales of sulia, a food that few of the most healthy citizens regularly eat."

Write a response in which you discuss what specific evidence is needed to evaluate the argument and explain how the evidence would weaken or strengthen the argument.

中文翻译：

Forsythe的居选择了更健康的生活方式。他们对于最近一项调查的回答显示，他们的饮食习惯比十年前更加贴近政府的营养建议。而且，含有kiran的食品销量增长了四倍，在一次科学研究中发现kiran是一种能够降低胆固醇水平的物质。这种趋势同样也被sulia的销量下降所证实，sulia是那些最健康的居极少经常食用的食品

写一篇回应，讨论还需要何种具体的证据才能更好的评估上面的论证，并解释这个证据是如何强化/削弱这篇文章的论证的。

新版GRE写作新题库：Argument

题目：

The following memorandum is from the business manager of Happy Pancake House restaurants.

"Butter has now been replaced by margarine in Happy Pancake House restaurants throughout the southwestern United States. Only about 2 percent of customers have complained, indicating that 98 people out of 100 are happy with the change. Furthermore, many servers have reported that a number of customers who ask for butter do not complain when they are given margarine instead. Clearly, either these customers cannot distinguish butter from margarine or they use the term 'butter' to refer to either butter or margarine. Thus, to avoid the expense of purchasing butter and to increase profitability, the Happy Pancake House should extend this cost-saving change to its restaurants in the southeast and northeast as well."

Write a response in which you discuss what questions would need to be answered in order to decide whether the recommendation is likely to have the predicted result. Be sure to explain how the answers to these questions would help to evaluate the recommendation.

中文翻译：

在整个美国西南部的所有Hp餐厅都采用人造黄油替代了天然黄油。只有2%的顾客投诉，这意味着100人中有98人对于这次改变都是愉悦的。另外，很多服务生报告说很多投诉要天然黄油的顾客在被给了人造黄油以后便没有了投诉。很明显，要么是这些顾客无法辨清人造或天然黄油，要么是他们用天然黄油来指代人造或天然黄油。因此，为了避免购买天然黄油的花销并且提升利润率，Hp餐厅应该将这种节约开销的方式推广到美国东南部以及东北部的所有餐厅。

写一篇回应，在其中讨论还有哪些问题需要被回答才能决定文中的推荐是否能得到预期结果，并务请解释对这些问题的回答是如何帮助更好的评估文中的建议的。
