Grammar control

Plenty of complex sentences still leaves grammar control to be checked.

Many learners try to show complex structures by making sentences longer. If clauses, punctuation, agreement, and reference are unstable, the reader works harder.

Short answer: complexity must sit on accuracy. Stabilise frequent error patterns before adding more range.

Many attempts, clustered errors

Long sentences repeatedly create agreement, clause, or punctuation problems.

Simple sentences work, complex ones break

The idea is clear until sentences are combined.

Checking is too general

The learner rereads generally and skips their recurring errors.

Why complex sentences can hurt

Grammatical Range and Accuracy considers both range and accuracy. Complex structures can show ability, but repeated errors reduce clarity.

Build an error shortlist first

Instead of studying grammar generally, extract the top three recurring errors from the learner's own writing.

  • Most frequent error type
  • Whether it affects meaning
  • Whether it can be caught during review

What to revise next

If the issue is accuracy, do a sentence-control repair pass: shorten the sentence, repair it, then combine only one structure at a time.

These pages explain the Banfen Writing diagnostic and blocker-repair method, Task 1 overview, Task 2 development, and common score blockers.

Vocabulary control
IELTS Writing 的 Lexical Resource 看词义、搭配、语域和准确性。高级词数量只是其中一小部分；用错的难词，比简单准确的词更伤分。
Writing timing
IELTS Writing 只有 60 分钟。Task 1 和 Task 2 都要完成，时间失控会导致 underlength、展开偏薄和检查时间被挤掉。
Home
半分写作是雅思写作练习网站。在雾港写作通关里选择 Task 1 来信或 Task 2 议事局，从自己的判断和短句写到完整作文。登录后免费玩 4 关，进度自动保存；也可先做一道短练习，获得点评并修改。
Writing grammar checker
IELTS Writing grammar checker 不应只改错。先判断错误是否影响句子控制、从句边界和意思清晰度。提交原句所在段落，不要只贴单句；上下文会影响语法判断。
Last-minute fix
IELTS Writing 考前冲刺，挑一个最拖分的标准修就够了。更有效的是先诊断一篇作文里最拖分的标准，再做一个能立刻验证的修复步骤。考前目标是止损，整套写作系统留到考后再建。
Model answer problem
IELTS writing model answer 搜索很容易变成背范文。本页说明如何把范文转成结构诊断和重写任务。从范文只提取一个步骤：让步、比较、例子机制或结论回应。
