1、SILENTWINGS 教你写 GRE 句子（一）1 The saying is used to point out that 这个说法用来指出（用法）常用在引用的名人名言或者俚语之后，用以表达作者自己引文的目的，立场或观点。（例子） 讽刺的是，这种说法指出在我们之中普遍存在一种倾向，认为他人总是比自己幸运。KEY The saying is used ironically to point out that there is a temptation in us all to insist that others are more fortunate than ourselves.借鉴 （1
2、 ）Ironically, the saying is used to point out that there is a trend among us that others are always luckier than ourselves.注：该句基本达到了句中意思的要求，而且表达简洁清晰，符合标准。（2）Ironically, the saying is used to point out that there is a commontendency between us pointing out that others are always more lucky thanoursel
3、ves.注：该句虽然意思表达明确，但是在一个句子中连用两个 point out，犯了重复的大忌，希望引起大家注意。（3）Ironically the saying is used to point out a trend among us that others are all luck dogs except self.注：这个句子首先副词在前，一般要用逗号搁开，另外 luck 只是名词，幸运儿用 lucky dogs 是可以的，但是在书面语中体现一些非正式的诙谐，宜用引号括起。另外，作者在将意思转化成英文时，理解上已经有所大的偏差，因为原来的中文意思是说别人比自己更幸运，换言之，只是比较程
4、度上的问题，并没说自己不幸运。出现这种问题的句子还有些，希望这些读者朋友注意，在将自己想到的意思转化成英文时，注意逻辑上的一致性，这对于 GRE 写作上往往会成为致命伤！（例子） 这种说法不变地指出一味抱怨和责备他人并不能消除贫困，无论其他人如何卑鄙，每个人都必须靠自己来获得成功。KEY The saying is used invariably to point out that poverty cannot be reduced by merely complaining and blaming others: no matter how guilty other people are,
5、each individual must reach out to success for himself.借鉴（1）The saying is used to point out that it would be of no use to eliminatepoverty by only complaining and abusing others and everyone should rely on himself to attain success no matter how abject others are.注：该句子基本将句子中的意思表现了出来，也没有明显语法错误，只是在用词上存
6、在些许问题。Abject主要是用来形容 humble，hopeless 的状态，意思为“卑屈的”，跟“卑鄙的”意义不同。（2）The saying used to constantly point out that only complaining and blaming others cannot obviate poverty, instead, no matter how mean others are, everyone must depend upon self to attain success.注：该句意义表达还是相当清晰，但是在小处上错误仍然出现。首先，主句漏掉了谓语动词 is
7、，后面instead 引出语义重心，因此应该前面宜用分号分隔。2 This is nowhere more true than 没有比在更正确不过的了（用法）用以强调在某个方面所表述或引用的论据得到了支持。聪明的读者应该马上就能举一反三，在ARGUMENT 中，可将上句中的 TRUE 转换成 ridiculous 就可以用来攻击 Arguer 的 ramshackle position 了。（例子） 这在关于幻想和现实的问题上是再正确不过的了。KEY This is nowhere more true than on the question of fantasy and reality.借鉴
8、 This is nowhere more true than the issues of fantasy and reality.注：就问题而言，注意前面要加介词 on，即 on the question of, on the problem of，这是正确地道运用的关键。（例子） 没有比认为钱多就更幸福更荒谬的了。KEY This is nowhere more ridiculous than on the assertion that the extent of happiness tasted is in proportion to the amount of money posses
9、sed.借鉴 This is nowhere more ridiculous than the belief that the more money one has the happier life he enjoys.注：该句基本上清晰表达出了句子的意思，主要问题仍然是上面句子中提到的介词 on 的问题。3 When faced with 当面临（用法）常用来表达这样一种假设“遇到，就采取”在作文中十分常用。重复使用时，可以将 face与 confront, encounter, come across 等替换，避免 repetition.（例子） 当我们遭遇不幸时，我们常常从这样的观念中寻
10、求安慰；我们的不幸是绝无仅有的。KEY When faced with the bad times, we often find comfort in the idea that we are special in our degree of misfortune.借鉴（1）When faced with a misery, we tend to comfort ourselves in the belief: our misfortune is unique.煮：该句意义表达比较清晰，基本达到要求，在名词的数上，动词使用上都比较规范。（2）When faced with an adversi
11、ty, we often seek consolation from the thought that this adversity also happens in others.注：本句作者根本颠覆了句子的意思，将意义“反”了过来，全句的意思是说我们受到的苦难在程度上是非凡的，而作者却写成了“共同的”，逻辑上的错误需要警惕！（例子） 当我们适逢惨败时，我们应该记住在一定程度上人生总是凶险异常，充斥着各色成功与失败，以及冒险。KEY When faced with the fiasco, we should remember that life for most people, to an e
12、xtent, is precarious enough to include some degree of winning and losing, and of adventure.借鉴 When confronted with terrible failures, we should remember to some extent life is always extremely dangerous, teeming with kinds of successes, failures and risks.注：该句基本将意思得以清晰表达，但是在 failure 和 success 的用法上出现
13、了小的失误。在表述宽泛的“成功” 或者“失误”时，请注意两者是不可数的。拿 success 来说，只有在表述一个成功的人，一样成功的东西时才是可数。比如 This man is just a success。This play is a tremendous success。4 It is presumptuous to judgeaccording to 根据来判断 太武断（用法）该句型几乎是 ARGUMENT 作文中的上宾，一出手就力量惊人，具体操作相信并不困难。这里要补充一下的是，在 ISSUE 中该句也可用来攻击 opposite points，为避免俗套以及丰富句型，presumpt
14、uous 可以用 arbitrary, ridiculous, illegitimate, unpersuasive 等等来替换。（例子） 根据唱片的销量来推断出他的知名度是武断的。KEY It is presumptuous to judge his popularity according to the sales of his albums.借鉴 It is presumptuous to judge how famous he is according to how many his records were sold.注：该句比较简单，上面的句子达到了要求。（例子） 根据他对于命运的
15、定义来将生命理解为一种赌博是不合理的。KEY It is illegitimate to justify that life is a kind of lottery in accordance with his notions of destiny.借鉴 It is arbitrary to judge life as a gamble according to his definition of destiny.注：该句基本上在结构上实现了有效的写作，但是在两个词上用得有些偏颇。一个是 arbitrary，不合理宜采用其他读者写的 unreasonable 等，arbitrary 是专横的
16、，不理智的，而不是不合理的，意义上有区别。另外，gamble 做名词常是指“带有冒险性的事情”，要准确表达赌博还是宜用动名词形式的 gambling 为好。5 The only time a person can claim that 仅当才能宣称（用法）该句型常在 ARGUMENT 中用以纠正 ARGUER 的逻辑错误，在 ISSUE 分论中用来加固或者完善自己的观点。（例子） 仅当他反思自己的所作所为，一个人才能声称怜悯是一种美德。KEY The only time a person can claim that “compassion” is a kind of merit is when he reflects on
