错误一:语言绝对化
 
  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.
 
  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.
 
  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。
