祝贺以上获奖同学!
本次大赛由广东省教育厅主办、外语教学与研究出版社协办,共有来自全省近65所高校的600余名选手同台竞技,为“外研社杯”全国英语演讲、写作、阅读大赛推荐选手。“外研社杯”全国英语演讲、写作和阅读大赛是全国参赛人数最多、规模最大、水平最高的英语演讲赛事,为全国大学生全方位展示英语能力、沟通能力与思辨能力提供平台,助力学生成长为具有家国情怀、全球视野、创新能力的高素质英语人才。
谈及学习英语的心得和经验,刘珉玮同学认为语言学习是一个熟能生巧的过程。“广以的学生处在全英文教学环境,每天这样的环境中,我觉得相比其他国内传统大学的学生来说,我们在英语上还是有一定的优势的。”
在写作方面,刘珉玮同学提了三个关键点——积累、训练、形成自己的观点。“对我来说,在学校经常用英文写实验报告、写邮件其实就是一种对写作基础的训练。在写议论文时,面对不同议题要有自己多方面、多角度的想法和观点。另外,多运用连接词使文章保持好的连贯性,一些词汇尽量做到同义替换,使用一些高级句型对英语写作也会有一定的加分。”珉玮同学分享道。
刘珉玮同学表示,这次比赛除了收获了奖项和晋级总决赛的资格之外,更重要的是很好地锻炼了自己的写作能力和思维能力。“这次的写作比赛需要写一篇议论文和一篇说明文。我觉得议论文的题目非常考验和锻炼选手的发散思维。另外,在写作过程中,议论的方式、文章的展开以及语言的应用也是非常重要的。我感觉我这次在这些方面做得都不错。”
谈及为了比赛所做的准备,刘珉玮同学则表示更多是在于平时的积累。“在比赛前,我把议论文写作需要注意的事项过了一遍,包括观点选取、议论方式、文章展开结构、句型和词汇等等。这次能取得这样的成绩,与我在托福写作上的训练关系很大,我把学习写作时自己认为比较好的方法用到了比赛上。”
“我对12月份的比赛还是比较有信心的,希望能够在全国总决赛上继续获得好的成绩,为自己同时也为广以获得荣誉。”
预祝刘珉玮同学在总决赛中再创佳绩!
Recently, a number of students from GTIIT have achieved great results in the 2020 FLTRP Cup National English Speaking, Writing and Reading Contest in Guangdong Province. Liu Minwei, a senior student from Chemical Engineering Program of GTIIT won the Special Award of the Writing Group. He will participate in the national finals on behalf of Guangdong Province with eight other selected contestants in December this year.
In addition, Chen Xuanni(19BFE), Zou Yunfan(18BFE) and Dai Jiekai(19CE) won the Third Prize of the Writing Group. Li Yitong(19CE), Zhong Jinliu(18CE) and Chen Xuanni(19BFE) won the Third Prize of the Reading Group.
Congratulations!
More than 600 contestants from nearly 65 colleges and universities in Guangdong Province participated in this competition. The FLTRP Cup National English Speaking, Writing and Reading Contest is the largest English speech competition with the highest level in China. It provides a platform for university students to show their English, communication and thinking ability, and help them grow into high-quality English talents with global vision and innovative ability.
When it comes to the experience of learning English, Liu Minwei believes that language learning is a process where practice makes perfect. "Students in GTIIT are in an English-teaching environment. I think we have certain advantages in English compared with students from other traditional domestic universities in such an environment."
In terms of writing, Liu Minwei mentioned three key points-accumulation, training, and forming one’s own views. "For me, writing lab reports and emails in English at GTIIT is actually a kind of basic writing training. When writing argumentative essays, you need to have your own multi-angled opinions on different topics.In addition, usingmore connectives to maintain good coherence in the article, tryingto replace some words as synonymously, and usingsome advanced sentence patterns will also help you do better in English writing." Minwei said.
Liu Minwei said that in addition to winning awards and qualifying for the finals in this competition, it was more important to improve his writing and thinking skills. "We were required to write an argumentative essay and an explanatory essay in the writing contest. I think the topic of the argumentative essay is very useful to train my divergent thinking ability. I need to consider about the arrangement of the article, themethod of discussion and the usage of vocabulary, which are very important in the process of writing. I feel that I have done a good job in these aspects this time."
As for the preparation for this competition, Liu Minwei said that it was more about the accumulation in the daily learning. "Before the competition, I reviewed all the key points that should be paid attention to in argumentative writing, including the selection of opinions, discussion methods, structure, sentence patterns and vocabulary, etc. I think my TOEFL writing training helps me a lot in getting such a good result."
"I’m pretty confident in the national finals in December, and hope I can win honors for myself and for GTIIT."
Wish Liu Minwei a great success in the finals!
