留学申请一所学校通常需要写3篇以上的Essay，题目通常都很简单，建议开始写之前，可以先看看以下的Tips并构思出你最佳的idea。
1. Read – write – read – write – read – write – read – write – read – write – read
What does this mean? It means that you should go back and read the paragraph you have just written before you start the next one. You may think that this is a waste of time. If so, you’d be wrong.
– It’s important to link your paragraphs together
– what more practical way to do that than just read what you have written?
– It helps you with words for the next paragraph – it is good to repeat some words as this improves your coherence.
这是什么意思？这意味着在开始下一段之前，你应该回去读一读你刚刚写的那一段。你可能认为这是在浪费时间。如果是这样，你就错了。
- 把你的段落连接起来是很重要的
- 还有什么比读你写的东西更实用的方法呢？
- 它可以帮助你为下一段提供词汇–重复一些词汇是好的，因为这可以提高你的连贯性。
2. Don’t be smart, be clear – select your best idea
The practical advice here is to select your best idea and write about that. That means not writing everything you know – leave some ideas out. Don’t worry if it is not your best explanation, worry about whether it is your clearest explanation.
这里的实际建议是选择你最好的想法并写下它。这意味着不要把你知道的所有东西都写出来–留下一些想法。不要担心这不是你最好的解释，而是担心这是否是你最清晰的解释。
3. Write about what you know – relax about ideas
This is a similar idea. Some people stress about finding ideas. They shouldn’t. The ideas you need are generally simple (eg”I disagree”, “This is not a good idea”).
The practical solution is to think about what YOU know and what YOUR experience is. If you look at the question, this is what it tells you to do. If you come from Bonn, write about Bonn; if you come from Ulan Bator, write about Ulan Bator!
这也是一个类似的想法。有些人强调要找到想法。他们不应该这样做。你需要的想法通常很简单（例如 “我不同意”，”这不是一个好主意”）。
实际的解决办法是思考你所知道的和你的经验是什么。如果你看一下这个问题，这就是它告诉你要做的。如果你来自波恩，就写波恩；如果你来自乌兰巴托，就写乌兰巴托!
4. Examples are easier to write than explanations
You want to make things as easy for yourself as possible. One practical idea to achieve this is to focus as much on examples as explanations when you write. Why?
It’s simply harder if you only think “because”. Some of the ideas may be very complex and, under pressure, it can be difficult to explain these with reasons. What may happen is that your sentences become too long and the ideas confused. The practical bit is to concentrate as much on examples. This is a good idea as examples tend to be easier to write as you are simply describing situations. All you need to do is make sure that your examples are relevant to the main idea.
你要尽可能地让自己的事情变得简单。实现这一目标的一个实际想法是，当你写作时，尽可能多地将重点放在例子和解释上。为什么？
如果你只想 “因为”，那就更难了。有些想法可能非常复杂，在压力下，可能很难用理由来解释这些。可能发生的情况是，你的句子变得太长了，而且想法也很混乱。实用的一点是尽可能多地集中在例子上。这是一个好主意，因为例子往往更容易写，因为你只是在描述情况。你所需要做的就是确保你的例子与主旨相关。
5. Don’t write too much – the examiner is paid by the minute
Examiners will only spend so much time looking at any essay. Write too much and they will read what you wrote “less carefully”.
The more you write, the more likely you are to make language mistakes.
The more you write, the more likely you are to go off topic. The examiner won’t read/grade anything that doesn’t directly relate to the question.
If you write less, you give yourself more time to choose the best words – and that’s what you are being graded on.
If you write less, you give yourself more time to go back and check what you have written.
考官只会花这么多时间看任何文章。写得太多，他们会 “不太仔细 “地阅读你写的东西。
你写得越多，你就越有可能犯语言错误。
你写得越多，你就越有可能偏离主题。考官不会阅读/评定与问题没有直接关系的内容。
如果你写得少，你就有更多的时间来选择最好的词–而这正是你被评分的地方。
如果你写得少，你就有更多时间回头检查你所写的内容。
6. Writer – know yourself
The idea is that you should check for your mistakes when you write. The practical part here is that you shouldn’t check for mistakes generally. The really practical thing is to have your own checklist in your head before you start writing.
这个想法是，你应该在写作时检查你的错误。这里的实际部分是，你不应该普遍检查错误。真正实用的是在你开始写作之前，在你的脑子里有你自己的检查表。
7. See the whole essay in your head before you start writing
It’s very important that your essay is a whole – that all the bits fit together. If you don’t do that, you may lose significant marks for both coherence and task response.
This means planning of course. Planning bothers some people and bores others. There are different ways to do this, but at the very least have a map of your essay in your head.
你的文章是一个整体，即所有的部分都能结合在一起，这一点非常重要。如果你做不到这一点，你可能会在连贯性和任务响应方面失去大量的分数。
这当然意味着要进行规划。规划让一些人感到困扰，让另一些人感到厌烦。做到这一点的方法有很多，但最起码要在脑子里有一张你的文章的地图。
8. Focus on the backbone of your essay
This is a related point. All the essay matters of course, but perhaps some bits matter more than others. I’d suggest the practical thing to do is concentrate on the backbone of your essay, the bits that help you write better and the examiner to understand better. The backbone is: The introduction: this should identify the question and outline your position. Don’t rush it as it is the first thing the examiner will read. First impressions count.
The first/topic sentences of each paragraph: these should be clear and to the point. They should identify exactly what that paragraph is about and show how it relates to the rest of the essay. The practical tip is to keep the detail/clever ideas for the body of the paragraph. Start off general and then build towards the specific.
The conclusion: this is the easiest part of the essay normally. Most often, all you need to do is go back to the introduction and rephrase it.
Get these bits right and the rest of the essay tends to take care of itself.
这是一个相关的观点。当然，所有的文章都很重要，但也许有些地方比其他地方更重要。我建议最实际的做法是集中精力写好文章的主干部分，也就是那些能帮助你写得更好、让考官更容易理解的部分。主干部分是。引言：这应该确定问题并概述你的立场。不要着急，因为这是考官要读的第一篇文章。第一印象很重要。
每段的第一句话/主题句：这些句子应该是清晰的，直奔主题的。它们应该准确地确定该段的内容，并说明它与文章其他部分的关系。实用的建议是将细节/巧妙的想法保留在段落的主体中。开始时要概括，然后向具体方向发展。
结论：这通常是文章中最简单的部分。大多数情况下，你需要做的就是回到引言中去，并重新措辞。
把这些部分做好了，文章的其他部分就可以自己处理了。
9. Don’t just practice whole essays
You do need to practise writing complete essays, but it may be a mistake to do only that. The different part of essays require slightly different skills. To write an introduction, you need to be able to paraphrase the question. To write a body paragraph, you need to be able to explain ideas. To write a conclusion, you need to be able summarise. The practical suggestion is to practise writing introductions, body paragraphs and conclusions separately. Focus on skills.
你确实需要练习写完整的文章，但如果只这样做可能是个错误。作文的不同部分需要的技能略有不同。要写导言，你需要能够转述问题。要写主体段落，你需要能够解释观点。要写结论，你需要有总结的能力。实际的建议是分别练习写引言、正文段落和结论。注重技能。
10. Focus on the question and refocus on the question
Leaving this one to last as it is the most important idea. Essays go wrong for different reasons. Some of these you may not be able to avoid: the quality of your English may not be good enough yet. The one mistake you can always avoid is that you didn’t answer the question. Too many essays go wrong because candidates didn’t read and think about the question properly. The practical suggestion: before you write each paragraph, refer back to the question to remind yourself about what you are meant to write about.
You may start off on topic, then you have a “good idea” as you write. So you write about that. Sadly, that “good idea” may not fully relate to the question. Big problem.
把这个留到最后，因为它是最重要的想法。作文出错有不同的原因。其中有些你可能无法避免：你的英语质量可能还不够好。你总能避免的一个错误是，你没有回答问题。太多的作文出错是因为考生没有正确地阅读和思考问题。实用建议：在你写每一段之前，先回过头来看看问题，提醒自己你要写什么。
你可能一开始就想好了主题，然后你在写的时候有了一个 “好主意”。所以你就写这个。可悲的是，这个 “好主意 “可能与问题不完全相关。大问题。
