【我靠這2招讓英文學術寫作用字更到位、專業、漂亮】
常常有學生問我要怎樣寫英文時,用字可以精準、漂亮一點。今天想以台灣學習者的角度,給大家 2 個方向參考。
✔︎ 方法一:努力指數很多,但值得長期投資
用字想要精準,那就要確實地掌握好各個字是在「什麼樣的上下文」中下面做使用。而要知道在怎樣的上下文中使用,則要有查閱英英字典的習慣(很多人已經想放棄了 lol),因為英英字典在給英文定義時, 很多時候後面會有一個小括弧,解釋該字應該用在怎樣的狀況下使用。
➠ 舉例:假如你想要寫, 「這個文章錯誤百出」,那麼第一秒你可能想到:
The article is full of errors. / The article is filled with errors. (程度:高中英文)
但我們連中文「充滿」學完,都會學有負面意味的「充斥著」了,英文也可以繼續升級吧? 在英文裡如果想使用「充斥著」,可以考慮使用 be riddled with sth。
劍橋字典定義說:If a plan or system, etc. is riddled with bad features, such as mistakes, it is full of them.
因此可以改用 The article is riddled with errors. 就是很漂亮、很到位,但有不會被說亂曬大字的用法了。
✔︎ 方法二:努力指數不多,立即見效
即便是英語母語人士在寫作的時候,第一個想起的動詞通常是偏口語、高頻的。像是 have, has, do, does, get, make, take... 這種「弱弱的動詞」。這時可以考慮在
寫完潤稿時,一個一個將其改為合適的「強動詞」。
➠ 例如:
“have“ the same difficulty 調成 experience
"have" a deeper understanding of 調成 gain
"get" a driver's license 調成 obtain
"get" a sense of achievement 調成 derive
"do" an analysis 調成 conduct
"do" an investigation 調成 pursue
我覺得大家可以將像右邊的改寫版中使用的動詞群練熟、使用的搭配也查好,因為像是 gain, experience, obtain, derive, conduct, pursue 都是還算高頻,但又可以用在學術寫作或簡報上使用的字。其他相似字還有 perform、undertake 等。
⚑ 講到強動詞,很多英文老師講的強動詞會是表達「動作」的強動詞。例如,會建議大家不要用 run (跑),要用 sprint (短距離衝刺)、jog (慢跑)。 不要用 walk (走),要用 slink (潛行)、trot (小跑)
這大多是文學背景、外文系背景(非英語教學或語言學),分析文學和小說久的教授或是老師以「美」跟「造詣」的角度給出的學習建議。我建議大家可以了解,在讀小說時可以欣賞,但還不需要照此方向學習。此方向的學習,對英語母語人士來說很合適,但連走都還「走不穩」大多台灣的英語學習者而言,可以先不用學習產出這樣的「飛功」。簡單而言,那是有了95分以後,追求99分做的事。

Why taking the SAT or ACT when you’re not ready is a terrible mistake.
For several years now, I’ve noticed that many of my students who study at international schools tend to take an SAT test just to “test the waters.”
This is such a bad move it’s not funny!
What’s so bad about it?
American admissions officers dislike students who only focus on tests. So, even if you manage to get a high score after you’ve taken the SAT too many times, you might be rejected anyway.
Your SAT score is so important! Please do not waste any opportunity to get a high score!
I read the following quote on Dartmouth’s website:
“We don't recommend excessive testing. Making the most out of your high school opportunities is more important than repeatedly taking standardized tests."
Is it only Dartmouth?
Actually, this kind of statement isn’t unique to Dartmouth - it’s pretty standard. Most of the top universities say exactly the same thing. This causes many people to believe that colleges don’t really care much about your SAT score.
Nothing could be further from the truth!
All you have to do is to look at the average SAT/ACT scores that enrolling students receive. As an example, successful applicants to Dartmouth average around 1500 (out of 1600). That’s pretty high! What do they mean then?
They mean that students need to focus on non-academic pursuits AS WELL AS getting a very high score on their SATs.
So, you definitely need a high SAT score, but you can’t look like you care that much. If you take a test before you’re ready, there will be a record of your lower-than-ideal score. You’ll naturally need to retake the exam a second, third, and, possibly, fourth, time.
Let’s say that you do achieve your ideal score on the fourth or fifth attempt. How will the admissions officer view you when you have exactly the same score as another applicant who only took the test twice or three times? Who will they select?
Naturally, they will not choose you because you look like a testing machine.
In the US, everybody knows that it’s foolish to take the SAT or ACT more than three times. That means that you should NEVER waste an attempt. You should be ready before you ever take the test.
So, what should you do?
First, “test the waters” in a safe environment: your home.
You can do some practice questions on Khan Academy to get a feel for the test. Then, when you feel ready to tackle the whole test, do one of the Official Tests found on Khan or CollegeBoard:
https://www.khanacademy.org/mission/sat/exams
https://collegereadiness.collegeboard.org/sat/practice/full-length-practice-tests
Make sure you download the test, print it out and do it on paper. If you do it on the computer, you will NOT be simulating the real test.
Presently, there are a total of 9 released tests. CollegeBoard and Khan have released 8, and there is one more floating about on the internet. (As an aside, I actually use this test in my classes. I purposely avoid the other released tests because most schools use them and so do many students. I hate it when students say, “I’ve done that test before!”)
Simply using these tests will give you a good idea of what score you would get if you took the real test. And you can do this without risking being labelled a testing machine.
Also, as there are only 9 official tests out there, don’t waste them. Granted, there are other “official” tests online or in some schools, but these are usually riddled with errors or are incomplete. (I personally hate doing a test and not knowing which questions are faulty before doing it. Most of the time, students spend a lot of time trying to figure out the answers to questions that do not even have answers. It can be very frustrating.)
Another thing: of the nine, only 5 of them are previously administered tests. The first four “official tests” were designed before CollegeBoard switched from the old SAT to the new one in 2016. These four tests are quite easy compared to what is being tested now, so are not a great indicator of your future score. They are great for practicing question types - just understand that if you get a really high score on them it doesn’t mean that you will do just as well on test day.
Only tests 5-9 (also easier than the current tests) are the closest thing we have to the current SAT tests. Still, these are easier than the current test, especially in the reading section, so be aware that the reading will most probably be even tougher than what is in all of the officially released tests.
If you have any other questions related to how to prep for your SATs, feel free to leave a message below or PM me.
Enjoy your SAT studies!

日文歌詞 / Japanese Lyrics :
幾星霜 期待もないようなふりをした
恥ずかし気に でもわかってる というだけど
双曲線 交わらないでいた
何もわからぬまま 潜っては深く 息も吸えないで
微睡む白んだ光が僕を呼んだ
手を伸ばしてくれるなら
ああ心はまだ応えられないまま
深い海凪いでは 理想描いた今
ただ痛いほど願って 忘れはしないから
ああこのまま立ち止まってしまったら
涙の味でさえ 知らないままだったな
君と笑って
空想上の世界を泳いでみたい
黄昏の陽には 思い出が 流れ落ちた
消極的 希望のないような口ぶりで
明日を見上げる空 困ったな 未来に縋ることさえも
見紛うくらいの煌めく声が覗いた
傷だらけの夢だけど
鼓動は速く ざわめいていた
心海の果てに鳴る音が
確かに生きた 君との証なら きっと探していた
零れそうな 呼ぶ声が 今いくと
ああ心はまだ応えられないまま
深い海凪いでは 理想描いた今
ただ痛いほど願って 忘れはしないから
ああこのまま立ち止まってしまったら
涙の味でさえ 知らないままだったな
君と笑って
中文歌詞 / Chinese Lyrics :
歷經幾度日月風霜,總是故作漠不期待
雖然說起來有些慚愧,但我仍知道——自己不該如此掩飾
毫無交集的雙曲線
不論屏著氣向多深游去,都還是無法理解另一方的啊
淺眠的晨間白光呼喊著我的名
倘若能對我伸出雙手扶持的話——
我的內心仍無法予以回應
我在廣闊海洋上的風平浪靜,描繪心中理想的此刻
僅是死命地祈禱著能夠實現,也不會忘卻這份嚮往
若我僅是在此止步不前
將無從得知何謂淚水的滋味了吧
也無法與你一同,相視而笑
想在我的幻想世界裡同魚群自在遨游
黃昏夕日中的回憶,也與其一同降下落幕
用消極且不抱任何希望的口吻
仰望著明日也將昇起的天空:「還真是麻煩啊。」就連走向未來也是
窺見了仿佛令人看錯眼般耀眼的聲音
哪怕僅是傷痕累累的夢——
內心的鼓動,止不住地躁動
在這心海深處反覆迴響的聲音
我也一定曾追求著這份,仍在心頭蕩漾的、與你一同存在的證明
用我孱弱的呼喊聲:「我現在就出發!」
我的內心仍無法予以回應
我在廣闊海洋上的風平浪靜,描繪心中理想的此刻
僅是死命地祈禱著能夠實現,也不會忘卻這份嚮往
若我現在僅是止步不前
將再也無從得知這份淚水苦澀的鹹味了吧
看著你,相視而笑
英文歌詞 / English Lyrics :
For many months and years, I pretended that I had no hope.
I understand even though it’s embarrassing. I say that, but...
The hyperbola didn’t even meet.
Still not understanding anything, I dove into the deep.
Don’t even breathe.
The white, sleepy light called out to me,
so I reached out my hand.
Ah, my heart still isn’t enough.
The deep-sea calmed, my ideal was drawn.
Because it hurts, I hope I won’t forget it.
Ah, as I stood still in that moment.
I didn’t even know the taste of tears
When I laughed with you
I want to swim in an imaginary world.
My memories of twilight days flowed.
Reluctant, with a hopeless apathetic tone,
I couldn’t look up at tomorrow’s sky or believe in the future.
The mistaken, glittering voice peeked in,
even though it was a wound-riddled dream.
My heartbeat was fast and buzzing,
the sound echoed at the end of the heart’s ocean.
If it's proof that you're alive, I surely searched for it,
I’m moving to that crying out voice now.
Ah, my heart still won’t answer me.
The deep-sea calmed, my ideal was drawn.
Because it hurts, I hope I won’t forget it.
Ah, as I stood still in that moment.
I didn’t even know the taste of tears
When I laughed with you
