你是怎样备考雅思的呢？很多同学每天7:00早起背词汇、晚上熬夜刷阅读、考前狂练口语话题、甚至一天一篇小作文，还要精听速听英文听力，而对于语法你做了什么？语法如此受忽视被冷落，客观来说，是因为在雅思考试中，听说读写四项，都不会直接考察某个语法知识点.

但是，语法虽然比较间接，但如果把雅思考试比作一场战役，词汇是粮草，而语法就像是马车，承载着重要物料，是核心的输送力量。

那么，在雅思考试中，语法的要求和应用究竟是怎么体现的呢？

先来看写作对于语法的要求：

比如，以下三段文字，意思大体相同，但在“语法多样性”上的得分各有不同：

(1) Simple sentence GRA 5]

The day was very rainy. The concert was on that evening. A large audience attended the concert. The concert was successful.

(2) Compound sentence GRA 6]

The day was very rainy and the concert was on that evening, but a large audience attended the concert, so it was very successful.

(3) Complex sentence GRA 8-9]

Although it had rained so much that day, the concert which had been scheduled for that evening was a great success since there was a large audience in attendance.

第一句话是简单句，语法得分为5分；第二句话为并列句，语法得分为6分；第三句话为although和since引导的状语从句，及which引导的定语从句，内容更有逻辑，语法得分为8-9分。

再来看看语法在口语考试中的要求和应用吧！

语法在雅思口语中的运用体现在两点：

1、时态

2、复杂句的使用

首先，看一下在“时态”的重要性：

考官问：Describe a beautiful city you have visited.

考生1：×The city I like the best is Beijing.

考生2：√ Beijing is the best city I have visited before.

另外，在口语中使用复杂句，比如从句等，相对简单句，很可能就是5分和6分的区别了。

Describe a well-known person you like or admire.

5分：

A Chinese well-known person I like is Mo Yan, he is a famous writer.

6分：

A Chinese well-known person I like is Mo Yan, who is one of the most famous contemporary writers in China.

大家有没有发现，在写作和口语中，语法就像一个“幕后大佬”，“操纵”着你的最终得分。
