雅思写作定语的多样化方式—介词结构

　　为了实现表达的多样性和灵活性，不妨观察定从句子的结构：1) 如果是主谓型，可用非谓语结构替换。2) 如果是系表结构，即名词+who/which/that+ be +表语(形容词/介词词组)，实际上我们可以把相容词前置，写成形容词+名词;如果定从中表语是介词词组则可直接用名词+介词词组结构。

　　举例

　　Nowadays, learning a new language for the purpose of working in other countries seems to become more and more popular. Adults in need of money①or, why not, recognition are trying to pursue their happiness far away from home. Also, the hey days of employers looking not only for multi-skilled employees②, but they also want people who know more than their mother tongue③. Sooner or later, those who omitted learning more④ are prone to become jobless. (剑11 T3 考生大作文7分节选)

　　分析

　　本段中后置定语一共出现四次，如果按照我们平时语言输出方式，我们可能都写成了定语从句如 “Adults who are in need of money; employers who look not only for multi-skilled employees; people who know more than their mother tongue; those who omitted learning more”。但是，本段中考生在表达定语的时候用了三种语言表达方式，分别是介词短语(①)，分词结构(②)以及定语从句(③, ④)，有效的实现了表达的多样性和灵活性。因此，考官在语法项给出的评价是 “A variety of complex structures is used with some flexibility and accuracy. Grammar and punctuation are well controlled and error–free sentences are frequent”。

　　小结

　　雅思写作对语法达到6分以上的要求是句子表达的复杂性，多样性，以及灵活性。在定语的表达上(后置定语)，没有说是哪一种结构更高大上，反正就是不要只使用惯用的定语从句一种方式!定语从句，分词结构以及介词结构都要综合运用起来!
