雅思写作评分标准：用错符号被扣分？看完这篇就够了

    标点符号看似很小，但却是很多同学在雅思写作中较容易忽略掉的部分。在雅思写作的官方评分标准中就有着对于标点的明确要求。    例如(Band 4) Punctuation（标点） is often faulty;  (Band 5) May make frequent grammatical errors and punctuation may be faulty; (Band 6) Makes some errors in grammar and punctuation but they rarely reduce communication;    (Band 7) Have good control of grammar and punctuation

    在这篇文章里，我就带着大家一起学习下雅思写作中常用的一些标点。

    ● 逗号（comma）
    例如剑桥10，Test 1的Task 2 (C10T1)考官范文中。
    1.用在并列句中
    This skill comes with time and good parenting, and my firm conviction is that punishment does not have much of a role to play in this.
    2.用于状语从句
    To punish a very young child is both wrong and foolish, as an infant will not understand what is happening or why he or she is being punished.
    3. 用于非限制性定语从句中
    In these ways responsibility is developed in the child, which leads to much better behaviour than does punishment.

     ● 句号 (full-stop）
    用于句子与句子的连接, 英文写作里面句号是一个实心的小黑点。此外，注意句子开头首字母一定要大写，否则也会被考官扣分哦。
    例如，
    Parents should be punished if their children break the law, they should teach them right from wrong.（错误）
Parents should be punished if their children break the law. They should teach them right from wrong.（正确）
 
    这是大多数中国考生很容易犯错的一个地方（有时会称为“连句”错误），希望可以引起大家的重视，避免在写作时出现类似的错误，否则考官会认为你的英语基础很是薄弱。

    ● 括号（bracket）
    用于解释说明，或者在不影响句子主体意义之余，补充一些让文章意思更清楚的内容。小作文中使用比较频繁。
    例如
    (C8T1)  North America had a lower proportion of degraded land at only 5, and the main caused of this were over-cultivation (3.3) and, to a lesser extent, over-grazing (1.5).

    当然，雅思写作里的标点可不是只有这些，像分号，问号，破折号等也是需要掌握的，只是出现的频率不是很高，这里我就不一一列举和讲解了。下面大家可以做个简单的练习看是不是都掌握了。

    1.Companies have to lay off some employees(  ) it can reduce the running cost.
 
    2.Many people lose employment(  ) because they do not have the knowledge about the newest generation of software.
 
    参考答案：1. 句号 2. 加标点
