GRE写作，用词单调是大忌。老是翻来覆去地使用相同的几个单词，不仅会让文章显得平淡无趣，还会把考生词汇量不足的缺点暴露无遗。如何避免GRE写作中的用词单调问题?下面小编为大家收集了一些常用词汇的替换用词，一起来看一下吧。
GRE写作用词单调原因分析
为什么不少考生会在GRE写作中出现用词单调的问题呢?原因主要有以下几点：
1. 考生本身词汇量不足。这是最常见导致写作用词单调的原因。考生本身掌握的词汇量就偏少，又没有专门训练或者背诵过写作用词，看的范文数量也不够，准备不足之下自然没办法写出五花八门的词汇来，所谓巧妇难为无米之炊，即是如此。
2. 有词汇量但不会用。作为一名合格的GRE考生来说，背诵大量的词汇是必须的。然而，考生对于背单词的要求却存在一些问题。不少对于GRE词汇背诵的要求只停留在混个脸熟，能看懂或者大致了解含义就行，而少有考生去细究词汇在句子中的具体用法。这也就导致了考生虽然认识很多单词，看着词汇量挺大，但真到使用的时候，还是只会用那几个常用的老词。
3. 没把握不敢使用。有些考生可能的确意识到了背单词要学会使用的重要性，也掌握了一些新词的使用方法，但因为缺乏练习，或者没有人帮助批改审核，因此不敢在实际写作中运用这些词汇，觉得没有把握，生怕用错，所以饶了一圈，到头来还是只能走求稳路线，反复使用旧词。

1.句法：确保每句话是完整的，有谓语，且简单句只有一个谓语。
2.时态：文章绝大部分使用的是一般现在时;一般现在时第三人称要使用单数;使用过去发生的事例时用的是过去时;c.主谓一致按此三步，持续练习5篇以上，可以确保时间问题。
3. 拼写：保证没有太多拼写上的错误，特别是开头结尾和每段主题句这种批阅考官必然会看的部分。绝不能出现拼写方面的低级错误。
