在英语四级写作中,很多时候我们都需要提到自己的观点,这时,同学们的头脑里估计会本能的蹦出”I think”或者是”in my opinion”之类的句式。如果这样的话,请对这些词说拜拜吧,因为,你已经不需要它们了。只要你愿意,你将学会以下其他表达方式:
1. I reckon,用于阐述自己的观点,比”I think I”更正式。
e.g. I reckon it will+ be much faster to get to London by train.
2. In my view,比in my opinion更正式,经常用于讨论重要的事情。
e.g. In my view, they made a huge mistake in not selling the company when they had the chance.
3. It seems to me & All things considered,皆可用于仔细思考问题或局势时。
e.g. (i)It seems to me that they are spending more money than they need to attract new talent into the company.
(ii) All things considered, I think we made a wise choice in recruiting James.
4. If you ask me,用于当你的观点于对方十分重要时;
e.g. If you ask me, she has spoilt her children far too much.
不过有时人们会在没被提问的情况下用到此句;
e.g. “If you ask me,” “But I didn’t ask you….”
e.g. (i)To tell you the truth, your father was right when he said that you undersold the company.
(ii)To be honest, I preferred it when you were blonde.
(iii)To be frank, I thought her acting was simply terrible.
6. Frankly speaking,更加直白的方式,用于熟悉的人。
e.g. (i) You would use this expression to give your opinion in a more familiar and forthright way.
(ii)Frankly speaking, I don’t know what she sees in him.
7. Personally,这用于强调自己在阐述个人观点时。
e.g. (i)This is used to emphasize that you are giving your own opinion
(ii)Personally, I think the CEO should apologize for his appalling behavior at the shareholders’ meeting.
8. To my mind& As far as I’m concerned,皆可用于对方不同意你的观点时。
e.g.(i)To my mind, private education is better than state education.
(ii)As far as I’m concerned, tennis is a much more interesting sport than football.
这样以来,除了”I think”和”in my opinion”,你仍有N种方式可以用于陈述观点,何乐而不为呢?
