GRE写作:常见问题介绍
第一,不一定能揪出正确的关键字。
比如,221"The chief benefit of the study of history is to break down the illusion that people in one period of time are significantly different from people who lived at any other time in history." 正确的关键字决定了写作是否会跑题。
第二,即使揪出合适的关键字,在第一反应期内也不一定有话可说。
比如,130"How children are socialized today determines the destiny of society. Unfortunately, we have not yet learned how to raise children who can help bring about a better society." 对于理工科的GF来说,平常的教学中忽视此类文科性知识是比较常见的。现在突然拿到”socialization” “better society“以及”education”,经常会出现大脑断电或短路,接下来的写作又从何说起?!
简而言之,担心自己对一问题会有看法,但不知道怎么去论证这一看法,更不要说让我们的论证persuasive, insightful.
第三,成人思想,婴儿表达。
即使有话可说,也不一定是ETS想要看到的话,有可能是会出现“成人思想,婴儿表达”。自己看了都觉得恶心,更不要说让professors来欣赏了。在ARGUMENT的写作中,主要担心没有把握A的逻辑链,develop深度不够,出现“强词夺理”的局面,而不是“晓之以理,动之以情”。

The following is taken from a memo from the advertising director of the Silver Screen Movie Production Company.
"According to a recent report from our marketing department, fewer people attended movies produced by Silver Screen during the past year than in any other year. And yet the percentage of generally favorable comments by movie reviewers about specific Silver Screen movies actually increased during this period. Clearly, the contents of these reviews are not reaching enough of our prospective viewers; so the problem lies not with the quality of our movies but with the public's lack of awareness that movies of good quality are available. Silver Screen should therefore spend more of its budget next year on reaching the public through advertising and less on producing new movies."
Although the reasoning in this arguement is logical, the writer failed to consider other reasons for the disparity between the percentage of people attending the company's movie and the percentage of favorable reviews. Perhaps the fault lies with the reviewers and not the production company; the public may not trust the critics' reviews. Another posibility for the attendance drop is that the general public does not find the subject matter of the movies enticing. If that were the case, spending less on producing new movies in an effort to re-direct funds to advertising could backfire by further limiting the types of movies available to the potential audience. Maybe the general public is simply not impressed with the critically-acclaimed qualities of the movies (such as eloquent screenplays, artful cinematography, and realistic acting) and and would prefer seeing flashy special effects and big-name stars. The possible reasons for the attendance decline are numerous; even aspects not directly related to the movie industry (such as the improving quality of television programming and the increasing popularity of home computer use) may play large roles. The company's management would be wise to consider and study the entire realm of possibilities before making drastic changes in its budget based on one statistical discovery.
Commentary
This response identifies and analyzes some important flaws in the argument. Although the number of points mentioned is the same as that in the sample 5 paper, this response remains at the 4 score level because the points of the critique are only minimally developed or supported.
The essay identifies four points:
-- the public might not trust critics
-- the movies' subject matter might not be appealing
-- the public might prefer seeing special effects or big-name stars rather than good cinematography or realistic acting
-- perhaps improvement in TV programming or increased use of home computers has kept people away from movie theaters
Ideas in the response are conveyed well and clearly; the use of language is generally strong. But the paper's "bare-bones" analysis gives it a list-like quality. It is therefore merely adequate and merits a score of 4.

The advertising director of Silver Screen should lose his job. It is clear that his analysis of the decrease in attendance in the past year was incomplete. A better qualified individual might have explored the issue further by doing several different things. First of all, surveys of the general population could provide a clue to the decreased viewership. They may find that people aren't as willing to pay the high prices anymore. A survey may also reveal that people are aware of Silver Screen, but opt not to see the films. An inspection of the nature of the films made by Silver Screen could also hint to the root of the problem. If Silver Screen produces a lot of the same type of movie, then the problem may be that they don't produce enough to appeal to the diverse interests of the population. For instance, if their movies typically contain excessive violence and foul language, parents won't take their children to these films. That is a significant portion of the potential viewing population lost.
The ad director mentions that reviewers liked specific films and gave more favorable reviews than in the past. But he neglects to mention the specific numbers- critics may have raved about 2 movies and turned their thumbs down the 10 others. If thats' the case, it's no wonder that viewership has declined.
Spending more on advertising, and less on production, as the ad director suggests, could drive the company out of business. If the media builds alot of hype over a new release that was poorly produced, people are more likely to be disappointed, and skeptical about future productions. This is certainly not in the company's best interests. What is in the company's best interest is a broader scope of the problem, and different approaches to solving i
Commentary
This strong response begins with an attack on the advertising director of Silver Screen but quickly shifts to identifying major flaws in the argument. The main points of the critique are that
-- the real reasons for a decline in viewership have not yet been identified;
-- Silver Screen may not produce different kinds of movies to appeal to diverse interests;
-- the number of favorably reviewed movies may actually have been very low; and
-- spending money to produce a possibly poor movie could hurt rather than help the company.
Although more points are made here than are made in the sample 6 response on this topic, each of the points made in the 6 paper is developed. That is not the case here. In this response, each point is supported (by perhaps an additional sentence), but it is not further developed. The paper is smoothly organized with few but appropriate transitions. The writing is strong with some variety in syntax. For these reasons, this response earns a score of 5.
