NATURAL PROCESS
This
type of process
relates to nature
. This may come up in the exam,
life
cycle, water cycle, an animal,
a plant
. You might have to describe something
related to
the climate, weather pattern…
Natural process: one of the things about natural process that makes it
challenging is they do expect you to
have some basic science knowledge
about these
natural processes
, they do expect that a natural process that you
understand.
In the man-made process you can talk about the beginning and the end (the
1
st
step, the 2
nd
step, the final step). However,
most natural processes are
typically a cycle
. So, if you are describing a natural process, you
will not say
the 1
st
step…2
nd
step…
you should figure out which place to start
.
Natural
processes
usually use
active voice
,
not
passive
voice
because people are not
usually involved in the natural process, so actions are not being done by
somebody. It could be used passive tense sometimes for example
“clouds are
flown by the winds”, but most of the time we
use active tense for natural
processes.
We use the
non-defining relative clauses
,
sequencers
(instead of using
the
first step, the second step, next and then,…we
might use structures like
gradually, overtime, eventually
, other things related to process time such as,
overtime, the plants grow…eventually, it produces…
)
In terms of the purpose, we might use
indefinite
purpose
“in order to, so as
to…”
but not often because in nature, it’s difficult to say why something
happens.
An introduction
contains
two
pieces of information
:
a paraphrase of the
summary
and
the main point.
The summary
is
what they give you in the diagram
. The summary
tells you
what you are looking at
. You
paraphrase
the question
and you are
changing
the words
.
