1、AWA 55经验针对Erater设计的结构模板分享发表于: 2008-05-23 23:32:00 - IP:*.*.*.* 只看楼主 大 中 小 楼主 本主题由 Zeros 于2010/1/28 10:22:00 执行设置分类 (查看更多) 下载AWA 5.5经验:针对E-rater设计的结构模板分享 我总共复习AWA的时间不是很长,加起来总共是5天,但是每天上班时都在地铁上看黄金80,800 score, 总共写了3篇AA,2篇AI.拿到5.5说明我的方法还是有一定效果的,和大家分享一下经验,大家可以参考一下首先,要注意结构的重要性,使用结构模板(我放在附件里了),不要使用废话模板,一方面
2、是怕被判抄袭,另一方面,背废话模板是种痛苦,其实大家如果看过800 Score就会发现,它propose的template是我附的结构模板的缩写版,他的范文应证了我的结构模板的applicability.大家完全可以用他的范文,写出自己的结构模板,又不用担心被判抄袭。之前也是看了很多CD nn的经验谈,对我影响最大的是三篇,大家可以看一下1作文2小时5+必看(给没时间准备作文的战友含作文详细提纲)(这个大家可以搜索一下CD)2E-rater发明者写的文章,我放在附件里了重点我copy在这里了,大家要清楚地认识到E-rater的评分标准,所谓知己知彼,百战不殆The feature set us

The ap
5、proach to detectingviolations of general English grammar is corpus based and statistical, and canbe explained as follows. The system is trained on a large corpus of edited text,from which it extracts and counts sequences of adjacent word and part-of-speechpairs called bigrams. The system then search
6、es student essays for bigrams thatoccur much less often than would be expected based on the corpus frequencies.The writing analysis tools alsohighlight aspects of style that the writer may wish to revise, such as the useof passive sentences, as well as very long or very short sentences within theess
7、ay. Another feature of undesirable style that the system detects is the presence of overly repetitious words, a propertyof the essay that might affect its rating of overall quality (Burstein &Wolska, 2003).Finally, the writing analysis toolsprovide feedback about discourse elements present or absent
8、 in the essay(Burstein, Marcu, and Knight, 2003). The discourse analysis approach is basedon a linear representation of the text. It assumes the essay can be segmentedinto sequences of discourse elements, which include introductory material (to provide the contextor set the stage), a thesis statemen
9、t (to state the writers position inrelationto the prompt), main ideas (to assert the authors mainmessage), supporting ideas (to provide evidence and support the claims in themain ideas, thesis, or conclusion), and a conclusion (to summarize the essaysentire argument).In order to identify the various
10、discourse elements, the system was trained on a large corpus of human annotatedessays (Burstein, Marcu, and Knight, 2003). Below presents an example of anannotated essay.A Student Essay WithAnnotated Discourse Elements“Youcant always do what you want to do!,” my mother said. She scolded me for doing
11、what I thought was best for me. It is very difficult to do something that I donot want to do. But now that I am mature enough to takeresponsibility for my actions, I understand that many times in our lives wehave to do what we should do. However, making important decisions, likedetermining your goal
12、 for the future, should be something that you want to doand enjoy doing. Iveseen many successful people who are doctors, artists, teachers, designers, etc. In my opinion they were consideredsuccessful people because they were able to find what they enjoy doing andworked hard for it. It iseasy to det
13、ermine that he/she is successful, not because its what othersthink, but because he/she have succeed in what he/she wanted to do. InKorea, where I grew up, many parents seem to push their children into beingdoctors, lawyers, engineer etc. Parentsbelieve that their kids should become what they believe
14、 is right for them, butmost kids have their own choice and often doesnt choose the same career astheir parents. Ive seen a doctor who wasnt happy at allwith her job because she thought that becoming doctor is what she should do.That person later had to switch her job to what she really wanted to do
15、sinceshe was a little girl, which was teaching.Parentsmight know whats best for their own children in daily base, but deciding along term goal for them should be ones own decision of what he/she likes to doand want to do读完上面的内容,大家大概就会对ETS的评分标准有了一个大概的了解,其实准备起来的话,我觉得模板是必不可少的,一则可以稳定心情,不至于考试时慌张,二则可以快速勾勒
16、出整个文章框架大家可能觉得最难写的是AI,事实上如果用了模板(注意:不是废话模板,而是结构模板)可以让你迅速发散思维,扩充字数。(插一句,谈一下字数的重要性,为何字数重要呢?大家看了E rater的评分标准,就会发现,他的评错是按照错误语法和拼写的总数除以字数,所以说,字数越多,当然分数就会提高。)回到主题,如何用结构模板,我的AI模板是这样写的Which is a more .?(The issue here is whether . ) The speakers opinion is that (Repeatauthors opinion.

21、自己添进去的,绿色是结构标示,只是作illustration purpose)大家会发现,只要结构清楚,总分总,分的部分写三段,每段也是用总分总来写,中间夹着, 其实是很容易写到500多字的,尤其是有了example,你的内容会显得丰富了许多。很多nn谈到转折连词的重要性,事实上,转折连词就是E rater那篇文章中所谓的Annotated Discourse Elements identifier,所以说,我们要尽量用这些identifier让E rater看出我们写得每句话的作用来,大家会发现,我中间每段最后一句话都是以标志性副词开头,而且各不相同,这就是为了降低由于repetition而
22、导致到得分率低(Erater那篇文章有提到),所以能用这种标志性副词就多用,我的附件里面有很多此类标志性副词,短语,大家多多使用,当然也不是滥用,呵呵呵。至于AA,结构模板就更为有用了,开头结尾的模板是标准的,中间三段如何写,且待我我慢慢讲来In this argument,the author concludes/recommends that To justify his claim, the author assumes/reasons/pointsout thatAdditionally, the author reasons thatFurthermore, the author a
