GRE Writing Assessment簡(jiǎn)介
從1999年10月開始的這項(xiàng)GRE作文評(píng)估考試并不是強(qiáng)制考試項(xiàng)目，您可以根據(jù)自己的需要以及所報(bào)學(xué)校的要求決定是否參與此項(xiàng)考試。不過隨著這項(xiàng)考試的普及以及它所能反映的考生寫作的能力，應(yīng)該會(huì)有越來越多的學(xué)校要求申請(qǐng)入學(xué)的學(xué)生提供此項(xiàng)成績(jī)。
下面是考試內(nèi)容簡(jiǎn)介：
The GRE Writing Assessment consists of two analytical writing tasks:
1. a 45-minute "Present Your Perspective on an Issue" task
2. a 30-minute "Analyze an Argument" task
The "Issue" task states an opinion on an issue of broad interest and asks test takers to address the issue from any perspective(s) they wish, so long as they provide relevant reasons and examples to explain and support their views.
The "Argument" task presents a different challenge: it requires test takers to critique an argument by discussing how well reasoned they find it. Test takers are asked to consider the logical soundness of the argument rather than agree or disagree with the position it presents.
Thus the two tasks are complementary in that one requires test takers to construct their own argument by making claims and providing evidence supporting their position on the issue, whereas the other requires them to critique someone else's argument by assessing its claims and evaluating the evidence it provides.
