Hi, I’m Oli.

嗨，我是Oli。

Welcome to Oxford Online English!

歡迎來到Oxford Online English！

Do you need band seven in IELTS?

您想要雅思考七分嗎？

Are you maybe stuck at band six or 6.5?

您可能會卡在6分或6.5分的水準嗎？

If you’ve taken the IELTS exam many times, and you can’t seem to get higher than six

如果您已經考雅思很多次， 而您在雅思寫作考試裡

考不到比6分還高的分數， 這部影片適合您觀看。

If you’re stuck at band six, then it’s likely that you have some bad habits and ineffective

如果您卡在六分，那麼看起來您在 寫作考試裡有一些壞習慣

approaches to the writing exam.

和沒效率的方法。

These are things that might work well at band six, but they won’t help you to get band

這些東西在考六分時效果 不錯，但是，它們

seven.

不會幫您考七分。

I’ll show you what these ineffective habits are, and how you can change them.

我會告訴您什麼是沒效率的 習慣，以及您怎麼改變它們。

One point: I’ll be focusing on the academic IELTS exam in this video, because most of

要點一：在這部影片裡，我會主要 集中在學術雅思，因為我遇到的

the students I meet need academic IELTS.

大部分學生要參加學術類雅思考試。

If you’re taking general IELTS, most of the advice in this video is still very relevant

如果考一般培訓類雅思，在這部 影片裡的大部分建議仍然

for you.

是與您很有關係的。

Also, one more thing: there’s nothing wrong with getting band six!

同樣，還有一件事情： 考六分是沒有任何過錯的！

I’m not trying to be rude or discouraging to anyone.

我不是要對某人沒禮貌 或是對某人洩氣。

When I say that something is a bad habit, or that you need to change something, I mean

當我說某件事情是一個壞習慣 或者您需要改變某件事情時，

if you want to get band 7.0 in the IELTS writing exam.

我的意思是如果您想在雅思 寫作考試考七分的話。

But first…

但是，首先…

Do you know how IELTS scoring works?

您知道雅思怎樣評分嗎？

You should.

您應該要知道。

Here’s why:

這裡是原因：

The IELTS scoring system is very specific.

雅思評分系統是非常特定的。

The examiners don’t just look at your writing and say, “Hmmm, this feels like a… six!”

考官們不只是看您寫的和說的， “Hmmm, this feels like a… six!”

If you get band six in the IELTS writing exam, there are specific reasons why.

如果您在雅思寫作考試裡考六分， 有一個為什麼的特定理由。

There are specific things which you did or didn’t do which explain your score.

有一些您有做的或沒有做的 特定事情解釋了您的評分。

Similarly, to get band seven, there are specific things you need to do, and not do!

相似地，要考七分，有您要做的 和不要去做的特定事情！

Most importantly: these things are very different between bands six and seven.

最重要的是：在六分和七分之間， 這些事情差異很大。

If you keep taking IELTS, and you keep getting band six in the writing, then you can’t

如果您繼續參加考試，在寫作上 您繼續考六分，那麼，您不能

keep doing the same things and expect to get a different score.

繼續做相同的事情，然後 又想考不同的分數。

You need to change what you do.

您要改變您做的。

The things you need to do to get band seven in your IELTS writing aren’t magic or some

要在雅思寫作裡考七分，您要 做的事情不是魔法

kind of dark secret.

或某些暗黑秘密。

They’re publicly available.

它們是公開的。

You can read what they are.

您可以讀到它們是什麼。

You can do it right now!

您可以馬上做！

There’s a link underneath the video.

影片下方有一個連接。

I highly recommend you read the scoring criteria and think about what band seven means.

我極力推薦您讀一讀評分標準並 想想七分評分意味著什麼。

At the very least, you need to understand that your IELTS writing score is made up of

至少，您需要了解您的雅思寫作 成績由四個不同部分

four different parts: task achievement, coherence and cohesion, lexical resource (which means

組成：任務完成、銜接性與 連貫性、字彙資源

vocabulary) and grammar.

（意思是詞彙）和文法。

Think now: where are you weakest?

現在想想：您在哪方面最弱？

What do you need to work on from these four areas?

這四個方面您需要做些什麼工作？

In the rest of this lesson, we’ll talk about each of these four areas.

在本節課的剩餘部分，我們會談談 這四個方面的每一項。

You’ll see common examples of ‘band six thinking’, and you’ll see how you can

您會看到常見的“band six thinking” 事例，您會看到您能怎麼

improve your approach to get a higher IELTS writing score.

改進您的方法來考一個比較 高的雅思寫作評分。

Let’s start with task achievement.

我們從任務完成開始。

Here are the some ideas that are great for getting band six:

這裡是一些考六分的好想法：

“In task one, I need to include every statistic and piece of data.”

“In task one, I need to include every statistic and piece of data.”

“In task two, I just need to write something about the general topic in the question.”

“In task two, I just need to write something about the general topic in the question.”

By the way, to save myself saying ‘task achievement’ again and again, I’m going

另一方面，我自己要省略說 “task achievement”一遍又一遍，

to call it ‘TA’.

我稱它為“TA”。

Getting band 7 for TA is both easy and hard.

TA考七分既容易也難。

Here’s why it’s easy: you just need to do everything which the question asks you

這裡是為什麼容易的理由：您只 需要做題目要求您做的每一件事情，

to do, and nothing else.

不做任何其他的。

Here’s why it’s hard: most people can’t do that without a lot of practice.

這裡是為什麼難的理由：大部分的人不做 大量練習就做不到那個。

TA is also slightly different for task one and task two, so we’ll talk about those

TASK一和TASK二的TA也稍微 有點區別，所以我們

separately.

分開來談它們。

Let’s start with task one.

我們從TASK一開始。

Here’s a sample question:

這裡是問題的一個事例：

The graph below shows the sales of five different food products in the UK between 1980 and 2010.

在下方的圖形顯示從1980年到2010年間 五種不同食物產品在英國的銷售。

Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons

通過選擇和報告主要特點， 以及在相關地方做比較

where relevant.

來總結信息資料。

If you want some time to look at the question, pause the video.

如果您想花更多時間 看問題，暫停影片。

Getting a good TA score depends a lot on what you do before you start writing.

考一個TA高評分往往取決於 在開始寫作之前您所做的。

You need to analyse the task and make a clear plan.

您需要分析任務並制定清晰的計畫。

If you start writing without a clear plan, it’s very hard to get a good TA score.

如果您沒有一個清晰的計畫就開始 寫作，要考TA高分是很難的。

In task one, it’s important to find connections or trends in the information you’re given.

在TASK一，在您獲得的資訊裡找 關聯和趨勢是重要的。

For example, in this question, how could you connect the data?

例如，在問題裡，您能 怎麼把數據關聯起來？

Here’s one idea: you could group the five products into, first, products whose sales

這裡有一個觀點：您可以把五個產品 品項歸類於：一、在此期間，銷售下降的

fell over the period (ice cream and frozen burgers), secondly, products whose sales rose

產品品項（冰淇淋和冷凍漢堡）； 二、在此期間，銷售上升的產品品項

(tofu and chili sauce) and finally, products whose sales stayed the same (salted peanuts).

（豆腐和辣椒醬）；最後，在此期間， 銷售持平的產品品項（鹹花生）。

Here’s another suggestion: group the five products into big sellers (ice cream, frozen

這裡是另一個建議：可以把五個 產品品項歸類於：銷售額多的

burgers, and also chili sauce at the end of the period), and small sellers (tofu, salted

（在期間內末期的冰淇淋、冷凍漢堡， 還有辣椒醬），銷售額少的

peanuts, chili sauce at the beginning of the period).

（在期間內初期的豆腐和鹹花生）。

Which way do you think is better?

您認為哪一種方式最好？

Actually, there isn’t one correct way to do this, but you need to do something.

實際上，沒有一個正確的方式去做 這個，但是，您要做某些事情。

You can’t just write about each product, one after another.

您不能只是一個接一個地 寫每一個產品。

Well, you can, but you’ll probably get band six for TA!

好的，您可以的，但是，您有 可能會在TA考六分！

Whatever data you’re given, you need to find connections and put the information into

無論您拿到什麼數據，您需要 找關聯並把資訊歸於您

groups which you create.

創建的分類類別裡。

These groups will be separate paragraphs in your answer.

這些類別要在您的回答裡 分段落。

This is how your answer will have structure, which is also important for your coherence

這就是您的答案會怎麼有結構， 那對連貫性和銜接性

and cohesion score.

評分也是重要的。

What about task two?

那TASK二呢？

Let’s look at a sample question:

我們來看一個問題事例：

The most common problem in task two is leaving something out or not covering something fully.

TASK二最常見的問題是遺漏了某些事情 或沒有完全地涵蓋某些事情。

To get band 7 for TA, you need to do all of the things the question is asking you to do,

要在TA考七分，您需要做問題 要求您做的所有事情，

and only the things the question is asking you to do.

並且只做問題 要求您做的事情。

What does that mean here?

那在這裡意思是什麼？

The task says, ‘discuss both of these viewpoints.’

TASK說“discuss both of these viewpoints.”

First, you need to discuss the idea ‘that young people benefit from working while studying

首先，您要討論這個想法 “that young people benefit from

at school or university.’

working while studying at school or university.”

One word here is particularly important.

在這裡，一個單字特別重要。

Do you know which one?

您知道是哪一個嗎？

‘Benefit’ is a key word here.

“Benefit”在這裡是一個關鍵詞。

What does ‘benefit’ mean?

“benefit”意思是什麼？

How do you understand it in this question?

在這個問題裡，怎麼理解它？

Next, you need to discuss the idea, ‘young people will achieve more by focusing on their

接下來，您要討論這個想法 “young people will achieve more

studies.’

by focusing on their studies.”

Again, there’s a key phrase here: ‘achieve more’.

同樣，在這裡有一個關鍵的片語： “achieve more.”

What does this mean?

這個意思是什麼？

You need to have answers to these questions.

您要回答這些問題。

IELTS tasks often contain abstract, general words like advantages, benefits, problems,

雅思TASKS通常包括抽象的、一般的 單字，像是advantages、

success, etc.

benefits、problems、success等等。

To write a good answer, you need to analyse and interpret these words yourself.

要寫一個好的回答，您需要 分析並自己解釋這些單字。

Here, think about ‘achieve more’.

在這裡，想想“achieve more”。

How do you understand this term in this question?

在這個問題裡，您怎麼理解這個術語？

Does it mean getting good exam results, learning more knowledge, learning practical skills,

它意思是考試考得好，學習 更多的知識，學習實用技能，

getting a better job, living a full, satisfying life, or something else?

得到一份比較好的工作，過充實、 滿足的生活，或其他的事情？

Again, there isn’t one right answer here, but you need to have your own ideas about

同樣，在這裡沒有一個正確的回答， 但是，關於這個，您需要有

this.

您自己的想法。

Next, the task says, ‘give your own opinion’.

接下來，TASK說，“give your own opinion”。

So, you need to explain which side you agree with.

所以，您需要解釋 您讚同哪一邊。

Finally, the task tells you to give reasons and include examples.

最後，TASK告訴您給出包含 有事例的理由。

This means that you need to support your ideas.

這意思是您需要支持您的觀點。

You can’t just say something like:

您不能只說某些事情像是：

Young people who focus on their studies will achieve more.

Young people who focus on their studies will achieve more.

If you make a point like this, you need to support it somehow.

如果您提出像這樣的觀點，您需要 某種方式來支持它。

How will they achieve more?

他們會怎麼取得更多成就？

What examples can you give to show that this is true?

您可以給出什麼事例來 表明這是真的？

Let’s review: for this question, you need to do four things to get a good TA score:

我們複習一下：就這個問題，您需要做 四件事情來在TA考得好評分：

1.

1.

Discuss the idea ‘that young people benefit from working while studying at school or university,’

討論想法“that young people benefit from working while studying at school or university,”

and analyse what ‘benefit’ means.

並分析“benefit”意思是什麼。

Discuss the idea that, ‘young people will achieve more by focusing on their studies,’

討論想法“young people will achieve more by focusing on their studies,”

and analyse what ‘achieve more’ means.

並分析“achieve more”意思是什麼。

Give your own opinion and reach a clear conclusion.

給出您自己的觀點，並得出一個清晰的總結。

Support your ideas with reasons or examples.

用理由或事例支持您的觀點。

If you can do these four things, you can get band 7 for TA in your IELTS writing exam.

如果您做了這四件事情，您可以在雅思 寫作考試裡TA考七分。

Remember though, it’s not as simple as it looks.

不過要記住，它不像 看起來那麼簡單。

You will probably need to practise to get this right.

您有可能要練習來 正確地做好這個。

Next, let’s look at your coherence and cohesion score.

接下來，我們來看看您的 銜接性和連貫性評分。

I’m going to refer to coherence and cohesion as C&C, to keep things simple.

我會把銜接性和連貫性看成是 C&C，這樣事情會簡單些。

Here are the habits which can limit your C&C score to six:

這裡是一些限制您的C&C 評分到六分的習慣：

“I need to use more linking words to get a higher score.”

“I need to use more linking words to get a higher score.”

“My essay should have an introduction, two body paragraphs and a conclusion.”

“My essay should have an introduction, two body paragraphs and a conclusion.”

Let’s look at each point separately.

我們來分別看看每一點。

Oh, hey, Oli!

哦，嘿，Oli！

How was your IELTS exam?

您的雅思考試怎麼樣？

Amazing!

太妙了！

I totally nailed it.

我全部搞定了。

I used nevertheless, furthermore, however, in spite of the fact that, AND in addition.

我使用了nevertheless、furthermore、however、 in spite of the fact that、以及in addition。

My band 7 score is GUARANTEED!

我保證考七分！

No, it doesn’t work like that.

沒有，那不是那樣做的。

First of all, linking isn’t just about linking words.

首先，連接不僅僅與 連接詞有關。

It’s about the logic and flow of your ideas.

它與您的想法的邏輯和通順有關。

Look at a sentence:

看一個句子：

Air pollution is a serious problem.

Air pollution is a serious problem.

However, food prices are higher than ten years ago.

However, food prices are higher than ten years ago.

Using however here doesn’t magically make these ideas connected.

在這裡使用however不會魔法般地 連併這些觀點。

These two ideas aren’t connected, and you can’t create a connection by using a word

這兩個是不相關的，您不能 通過使用一個像however

like however.

的單字來創建一個關聯。

Next, there’s nothing in the IELTS scoring system which says you get a higher score for

接下來，在雅思評分系統裡，沒有 任何東西表明您會因為使用

using more linking words.

更多的連接詞而獲得更高的分數。

It’s more important to make sure you use linking words accurately.

確認您準確地使用了 連接詞是更重要的。

Using more linking words won’t get you band seven.

您不會因為使用更多的 連接詞而考到七分。

However, using linking words incorrectly will get you band six.

然而，您會因為不正確地使用 連接詞而考六分。

So, don’t use linking words just to use linking words.

所以，不要僅僅為了使用 連接詞而使用連接詞。

Use them because they fit your ideas.

要因為它們適用於您的想法 而使用它們。

Don’t think, “I have to use nonetheless to get a high score!”

不要考慮“I have to use nonetheless to get a high score!”

You don’t.

您不要這樣。

Next, let’s look at our second point: paragraphing.

接著，我們看看我們的第二個要點：分段落。

Many IELTS candidates use the same structure for everything they write.

很多雅思考生在他們寫的每樣 東西裡都使用相同的結構。

For example, for task two, most people write an introduction, two body paragraphs, and

例如，在TASK二裡，大部分的人 寫一個介紹段落，兩個主體段落，

a conclusion.

以及一個結尾段落。

That might be fine.

那可能是沒問題的。

However, to get band 7 for C&C, you need to “present a clear central topic within each

然而，要在C&C考七分，您需要 “present a clear central topic within each

paragraph.”

paragraph.”

Those aren’t my words.

這些不是我的話。

That’s straight from the IELTS scoring scheme.

那是直接來自於雅思評分方案。

Many students, especially in task two, write paragraphs like this:

很多學生，特別是在TASK二， 寫段落像這樣：

There are many advantages to … Firstly, … Secondly, … Thirdly, …

There are many advantages to … Firstly, … Secondly, … Thirdly, …

This kind of writing is likely to get a score of 6 for C&C.

這種寫作方式在C&C很可能 會考六分。

Why?

為什麼？

Because, if you do this, you’re trying to put too much in one paragraph.

因為，如果您這樣做，您在試圖放 太多東西到一個段落裡了。

That means your paragraph won’t have a clear central topic.

那意味著您的段落不會有 一個清晰的中心主題。

So, what’s the solution?

所以，解決方案是什麼？

First, plan your essay carefully.

首先，仔細地規劃您的議論文。

Make sure you know exactly what you’re putting in each paragraph before you start writing.

在您開始寫作之前，確認您準確地知道 您會在每一個段落裡放什麼東西。

Secondly, make sure your paragraph starts with a clear topic sentence.

其次，確認您的段落以一個 清晰的主題句開始。

Your topic sentence should be relatively short and simple.

您的主題句應當相對地 比較短且簡單。

If your topic sentence is very long and complicated, then your topic probably isn’t clear.

如果您的主題句很長、很複雜， 那麼您的主題有可能是不清晰的。

Then, after your topic sentence, spend the rest of the paragraph developing and extending

然而，在您的主題句之後，用段落的 剩餘部分來展開和

your main idea.

鋪敘您的主要觀點。

This means that you aren’t adding any new ideas or changing the topic in the middle

這意味著您不會在您的段落 中間添加任何新想法

of your paragraph.

或改變主題。

Also, this means you might need different numbers of paragraphs depending on how many

同樣，這意味著您可能根據您 有多少主要的觀點

main ideas you have.

而需要有不同數量的段落。

Do you have two body paragraphs in your essay?

在您的議論文裡您有兩個主體段落嗎？

That means you have two main ideas.

那意味著您有兩個主要想法。

Do you have three main ideas?

您有三個主要的想法嗎？

Then you need three paragraphs!

那麼，您需要三個段落！

Another point: paragraphs don’t have a minimum length.

另一個要點：段落沒有 一個最短的長度。

There’s no such thing as a paragraph which is too short.

沒有一個段落太短了 這種事情。

Paragraphs can be any length.

段落可以有任何長度。

So, let’s review this section.

所以，我們來複習這個部分。

To get band seven C&C in your IELTS writing exam, you need to focus on using linking words

要在您的雅思寫作考試裡C&C考 七分，您需要在準確、適當地

accurately and appropriately.

使用連接詞上多注意。

You also need to make sure every paragraph has a clear central topic, which means you

您也需要確認每個段落有一個清晰的 中心主題，那意味著您

shouldn’t try to put many different ideas in one paragraph.

不要試著放很多不同的想法 到一個段落裡。

Next, let’s look at vocabulary and how you can get to band seven.

接下來，我們看看詞彙和 您怎麼能考七分。

Here’s a band six idea that students often have:

這裡是學生們常有的 六分的想法：

“I need to learn lots of synonyms and uncommon vocabulary.

“I need to learn lots of synonyms and uncommon vocabulary.

If my vocabulary is bigger, I’ll get a higher score.”

If my vocabulary is bigger, I’ll get a higher score.”

There’s one important difference between band six and seven for vocabulary.

在詞彙的六分和七分之間 有一個重要的區別。

At band six, you need two things: range and clarity.

在六分，您需要兩件事情： 範圍和清晰度。

That means, if you at least try to use some more advanced or uncommon vocabulary, you can get six if

那意味著，如果您至少試著使用一些 更高階或不常見的字彙，如果您的

your meaning is clear, even if you make mistakes, even if you make lots of mistakes.

意思是清晰的，即使您犯了錯誤，即使 您犯了很多錯誤，您可以考六分。

However, for band seven, you need three things: range, clarity and accuracy.

然而，對於七分，您需要三件事情： 範圍、清晰度和準確。

It’s no longer enough just to try.

僅僅去試試是不夠的。

You need to use vocabulary “with flexibility and precision”—again, this is a quote

您需要使用字彙“with flexibility and precision” — 同樣，這一段

from the official scoring scheme.

文字是引用自官方評分方案。

You can’t make many mistakes for band seven.

在七分，您不能犯很多錯誤。

You can produce ‘occasional errors’ and still get band seven.

您可以犯“occasional errors”， 並仍然考七分。

What does this mean for you?

這對您意味著什麼？

It means that your priority should be avoiding mistakes.

那意味著您的優先事項 應當是防止犯錯誤。

I see many IELTS students trying to learn lots of idioms, phrases, academic vocabulary

我看到很多雅思考生試圖學 大量的俗語、片語、

and so on.

學術字彙等等。

But then, they often don’t know how to use this vocabulary well.

但是，然後，他們通常不知道 怎麼使用這些字彙。

They use it in their writing, because they think it sounds nice, and their meaning might

他們在他們的寫作裡使用這些 字彙，因為他們認為那

be clear, but it’s not correct.

聽起來很好，它們的意思也許是 清晰的，但是那是不正確的。

That’s fine for band six, but not for band seven.

那對六分是不錯的， 但是，對七分不是的。

So, what should you do?

所以，您應該要做什麼？

Look, first of all, vocabulary learning is hard work and it’s slow.

看看，首先，字彙學習是辛苦的 工作，並且很慢。

There aren’t any magic solutions here.

在這裡，沒有任何魔法解決方案。

But I’ll give you one tip:

但是，我會給您一個提示：

When you’re learning vocabulary, focus on quality and depth, not quantity.

當您在學字彙時，關注品質和 深度，而不是數量。

Don’t try to learn 50 words or phrases.

不要試著學50個單字或片語。

Learn five words or phrases, but really learn them.

學習五個單字或片語，但是， 真正地學習它們。

Spend an hour learning and practising five new words and phrases.

花一個小時學習和練習 五個單字和片語。

Find example sentences.

找例句。

Write your own example sentences.

寫您自己的例句。

Ask a teacher or whoever you can find to give you feedback.

問一個老師或任何一個您能找到的 並能給您回饋意見的人。

Make sure you know how to use your new vocabulary correctly.

確認您知道怎麼去正確地 使用您的新字彙。

Another point: in the exam, if you have a choice between a simple word which you know

另一個要點：在考試裡，如果您在 一個您知道是正確的、簡單的

is correct, and a more advanced or academic word which you aren’t sure about, what should

單字與一個您不確定的更高階的 或學術單字裡做一個選擇，

you do?

您應當做什麼？

Use the simple word.

使用簡單的單字。

Only use vocabulary you’re sure you understand and that you know how to use.

僅僅使用您確定的、您理解的 以及您知道怎麼用的單字。

This is the opposite to band six.

這是與六分相反的。

For band six, you can use the more advanced word, even if it’s wrong.

對於六分，您可以使用更高階的 單字，即使它是錯誤的。

But remember, to get band seven, you need to be accurate.

但是，記住，要考七分， 您需要的是準確性。

You can’t make many mistakes.

您不能犯很多錯誤。

So, in this situation, take the safe choice!

所以，在這種情形下，做安全的選擇！

Finally, let’s look at the grammar score and how you can get to band seven.

最後，我們來看看文法評分， 以及您怎麼考七分。

Here’s the band six idea which students often have:

這裡是學生們常常有的 六分的想法：

“Grammar’s not so important, so long as people can understand what I mean.”

“Grammar’s not so important, so long as people can understand what I mean.”

Again, band six and band seven are very different.

同樣，六分和七分差異很大。

This is especially true for your grammar score.

對您的文法評分尤其如此。

What’s the difference?

差異是什麼？

Like vocabulary, you need to be accurate to get band seven.

像是字彙，要考七分， 您需要用字準確。

At band six, it doesn’t really matter how many grammar mistakes you make so long as

在六分，只要您意思是清楚的， 您犯多少錯誤

your meaning is clear.

那真的不重要。

At band seven, the quantity of grammar errors you make matters.

在七分，您犯的文法錯誤 數量是重要的。

It really matters!

那真的重要！

To get band seven for grammar, you need to “produce frequent error-free sentences”—again,

要文法考七分，您需要 “produce frequent error-free sentences” — 同樣，

these words are directly from the official IELTS scoring scheme.

這些話是直接引用自 雅思官方評分方案。

That means if you make a lot of small mistakes, it’s almost impossible to get band seven

那意思是如果您犯了很多 小錯誤，文法考七分那幾乎

for grammar.

是不可能的。

All mistakes count: you use the wrong preposition?

所有錯誤都會被考量： 您用錯介系詞了嗎？

It’s a mistake.

那是一個錯誤。

You forget to use the?

您忘記用the了？

Mistake.

錯誤。

You forget the ‘s’ on a present simple verb?

您在動詞現在簡單式忘記了“s”？

Mistake.

錯誤。

If your writing is around band six, you probably make more mistakes than you realise.

如果您的寫作是大約六分，您犯的錯誤 有可能比您意識到的要多。

So, again, what can you do?

所以，同樣，您能做什麼？

First, you need to identify the common mistakes which you make.

首先，您需要識別您 犯的常見錯誤。

For this, you need a teacher to show you where you make mistakes in your writing.

為此，您需要一個老師來告訴您 在您的寫作裡哪裡有錯誤。

Every time you do some writing, look at the grammar mistakes you make.

每次您有一些寫作， 看看您犯的文法錯誤。

Sort them into two categories.

把它們分成兩類。

One: mistakes with things you don’t know.

一：您不知道的錯誤。

Two: mistakes with things you already knew.

二：您已經知道的錯誤。

For example, if you write ‘childrens’ instead of ‘children’, this is probably

例如，如果您寫“childrens”取代 “children”，這有可能

a type two mistake.

是一個第二類錯誤。

Most likely, you knew this already.

很可能，您已經知道這一點。

You just made a mistake, because you were in a hurry, or you were tired, or you have

因為您很急，或者您累了， 或者您有一個壞習慣，或者您

a bad habit, or you weren't paying attention, or something like that.
