雅思心得：写作中国学生常犯错误-语言绝对化

会计考友

　　根据能量守恒定律（Law of energy conservation），即“各种能量形式互相转换是有方向和条件限制的，能量相互转换时其量值不变，表明能量不能被创造或消灭”，人们在使用语言描述事物变化时，应尽可能避免语言过于绝对化，尤其是在使用第二语言进行正式的书面表述时，更应该注意该语言中非绝对化表达方式的学习，这样才能尽显文章内容的客观性。
　　这是绝大多数中国考生在面对雅思写作TASK 2时所忽视的，大家可以对比如下两组句子：
　　This tends to occur whenever there is a downturn in commodity prices.
, z  e+ @9 K3 `　　This occurs whenever there is a downturn in commodity prices.
　　A child learning a foreign language at primary school causes confusion between their native language and the foreign one.
# _) h8 {1 ]% N" w7 N  V# T+ k( F　　A child learning a foreign language at primary school is likely to cause confusion between their native language and the foreign one.
　　为解决该问题，笔者总结了一些表达委婉语气的用语和句式，考生可以尝试使用，如：may, might, would, could, largely, possibly, probably, be likely (unlikely) to, be inclined to, tend to, to a large (some) extent, there is a higher probability/possibility that…等。
