在美國高中留學的期間,很多同學反應,在英語寫作和口語表達中,在應對不同話題時,他們能夠輕松做到內(nèi)容詳實,有話可說,但是,卻往往因為開頭的一句 I think「一丑毀所有」。那么,如何才能靈活多變地表達「我的觀點是」這層意思?除了 I think 我們還能說什么?
下文將為大家展示「我認為」的花樣表達法,告訴大家更加地道的英文應該怎么說。
1. As far as I am concerned 對我而言,從我的角度來說

例句 2:
As far as I am concerned, the matter is closed.
對我來說,事情已了結(jié)。
2. From my point of view/perspective 依我看,以我的觀點看
例句 1:

例句 2:

4. It seems to me that... 我覺得……
例句 1:

經(jīng)過審慎考慮之后,我認為這種結(jié)果似乎不是通過自然選擇得來的。
例句 2:

在我看來,根本就是一回事。
5. I take the view that... 我所持的看法是……

我的意見是,道德是不能由法律來規(guī)定的。

例句 2:

我認為人人生而平等。
9. As for me, I... 至于我,我……
例句 1:

例句 2:
Personally speaking, I am glad to be a heroic man.
個人來說,我很愿意當一名英雄人物。
當然,很多時候,在表達某個觀點或者立場時,根本不用提到「我的觀點是」這句話,而是直接描述某種立場或現(xiàn)象即可,這時表達方式就會靈活很多,如下所示:
1. It is an inescapable fact that... (什么)是一個無法回避的事實
例句:
It is an inescapable fact that some students behave badly and damage the learning environment.
有一些學生行為惡劣并且破壞學習氣氛的問題是一個無法回避的事實。
2. ... be noticeable (某種現(xiàn)象)十分顯著
例句:

英國留學和美國留學的學術體制差別十分顯著。
3. The underlying cause of sth. is... 某現(xiàn)象的深層原因是……
例句:
We should look into the underlying cause of this problem.
我們應該從更深一層去剖析這個問題的原因。
4. One possible solution is to... 一個也許可行的解決方案是……
例句:
One possible solution is to provide more sports facilities to encourage a more active lifestyle.
一個也許可行的解決方案是提供更多的運動設施以鼓勵更積極運動的生活方式。
從上述示例可知,在美國高中留學期間,與別人交流的時候,在表達個人觀點時,可以有多種不同的表達,既可以選擇不同的詞匯,也可以直接去掉「我認為」這一意思而直接描述現(xiàn)象和觀點,學會用不同的表達法來替換 I think,不僅能夠使文章語言更加豐富,而且能夠使語言表達更地道、更上檔次,次想說「我認為」的時候,不妨試試以上的方法,相信一定能夠使文章或者口語表達增色不少。如果你還想了解更多關于美國高中留學的問題,可以撥打010-65978817進行咨詢,也可以直接點擊頁面右側(cè)咨詢對話框與彬彬留學顧問咨詢在線交流。
