托福写作：强调句型在托福写作中的应用
强调句型是英语中的一种特殊句型，如果同学们在托福独立写作中，适当运用强调句型，可以起到非常好的提升句子的作用。
托福写作：强调句型在托福写作中的应用
我们先来复习一下，托福写作强调句型的基础形式为：
It is / was + 被强调的某个句子成分+ that / who + 句子
强调句型可以用来强调句子中除了谓语之外的成分，起到比较明显的加强语气的作用，比如：
I went to the Palace Museum in 1997.
这个句子如果强调时间，就可以变为：
It was in 1997 that I went to the Palace Museum.
如果直接运用，句子也没有显得特别出彩，如果同学们可以用强调句型和其它从句一起使用，就会起来比较好提升作用：
比如我们探讨“人口老龄化”的问题，想表达“老龄化日益严重的问题让全球的政府都很担扰”，可以写为：
It is the fact that the population aging problem is getting more and more prevalent that makes all the governments concern all over the world.
上面句子里面的the population aging problem is getting more and more prevalent是fact的同位语从句。
另外，再推荐同学们一个托福写作句式：
It is not… but… that really counts
当我们在独立写作中，想表达“矛盾双方取其一更为重要的时候，就可以套用这个句型，比如我们探讨读书应该read extensively 还是read intensively的时候，可以用到这样的表达：
It is not how many books we read but how much we understand from the books that really counts.
今天和大家的分享就到这里，请大家思考下，下面的句子该怎么表达：
1.出门旅行的时候，不是自由，而是安全，才真正的重要。
2.谈到吃饭的问题，不是味道好，而且干净，才真正的重要。
托福独立写作十大经典句型
第一、定语从句
这应该算是写作中最常用的一种句型之一。适当地运用定语从句可以给你的文章增色不少。
例如，下面的这两个句子用上定语从句马上就变成了一个漂亮的复杂句。
Bad books contain evil thoughts. In them, there might be much description about violence, superstition, and sex. source:veduchina
→ Bad books, in which there might be much description about violence, superstition, and sex, contain evil thoughts.
第二、状语从句
在写作当中运用的最多的是以下五种状语从句，即原因状语从句，让步状语从句，条件状语从句，时间状语从句和目的状语从句。
1. 原因状语从句：常由because, as, since和for引导
Eg: Nonetheless, I am still in favor of space travel, for its merits far outweigh demerits.
尽管如此，我还是赞成太空探险，因为它的好处远远大于坏处。
2. 让步状语从句：常由although, though, even though/ if, as long as和notwithstanding引导
Eg: Although this view is wildly held, this is little evidence that education can be obtained at any age and at any place.
尽管这一观点被广泛接受，很少有证据表明教育能够在任何地点、任何年龄进行。
3. 条件状语从句：常由if, on the condition that和providing that引导
Eg: If you want to achieve something or intend to fulfill one of your ambitions, you must work hard, make efforts and get prepared. source:veduchina
假如你要取得成就或要实现你的雄心壮志，你必须努力工作、艰苦奋斗、准备好条件。
4. 时间状语从句：常由when和while引导
Eg: When it comes to education, the majority of people believe that education is a lifetime study.
说到教育，大部分人认为其是一个终生的学习。
5. 目的状语从句: 常由so that和in order that引导
Eg: Millions of people have to spend more time and energy on studying new skills and technology so that they can keep a favorable position in job market.
成千上万的人们不得不花费更多的精力和时间学习新的技术和知识，使得他们在就业市场能保持优势。
第三、宾语从句
Eg: Some people claim that government should be mainly responsible for the environmental pollution.

Eg: Many experts point out that, along with the development of modern society, it is an inevitable result and there is no way to avoid it. source:veduchina

第四、同位语从句
Eg: It is an undeniable fact that environmental pollution becomes increasingly serious.环境污染变得越来越严重是不可否认的事实。
Eg: No one can deny the basic fact that it is impossible for average workers to master those high-technology skills easily.

Eg: It is universally acknowledged that environmental pollution becomes one of the most serious problems in China or even the world as a whole. source:veduchina
众所周知，环境污染问题是中国乃至世界面临的最为严重的问题之一。
第六、强调句: It is + 被强调的内容 + that

第八、被动语态
Eg: Every means should be tried to protect the environment on which people live.

第九、分词结构：包括现在分词和过去分词
Eg: Tourism, which is a rising industry, has become the major source of economy, playing crucial role in many Asian countries. source:veduchina
旅游业是一个新兴的行业，它成为经济的主要来源, 在很多东南亚国家起着尤为重要的作用。

具体来说，政府应该出台相关法律法规对制造大量污染物的工厂及故意乱扔垃圾随地吐痰的人进行严惩。
第十、插入语
一种独立成分,与句子的其它成分一般没有语法上的关系，大都是对一句话作一些附加说明或解释。它通常由一个词、一个短语或一个句子构成，位置较为灵活，可置于句首、句中或句末，一般用逗号或破折号与句子隔开。
Eg: Computer, an indispensable part in our life, has brought us great conveniences.
电脑，我们生活中必不可少的一部分，给我们带来了极大的方便。
Eg: College students, lacking social experience, are easily cheated.
大学生，没有社会经验，容易上当受骗。
托福写作:教你"造句"
造句要做到准确、多样以及高分表达
I 准确的句子表达
1. 句型分析
英语的句型包括以下几种，简单句、复合句、并列句、并列复合句等。在新托福写作中，一般使用复合句，辅以并列句和并列复合句，当然肯定要有简单句，做到长短句相结合。下面摘抄几个句子给大家认识并分析一下复合句和并列复合句。
a. Even though I usually know what I have to say, I cannot always express myself correctly in English.
这句话是一个复合句，由even though引导的让步状语从句。
b. This challenges me to practice my spoken English, with the result that I can complete the speaking tasks more fluently and quickly.
这句话中是一个复合句。with介词结构中，有一个that引导的同位语从句对result进行解释说明。
c. I think this is less than ideal because any differences in opinion become personal conflicts, and therefore that might jeopardize the employee’s job.
上句话是一个并列复杂句。and 连接了两个句子，是一个并列句;because引导的原因状语从句。
d. Shallow writing is indicative of weak critical-thinking skills, and such writing, which is often described as “sophomoric”, receives low mark.
这句话同样是并列复杂句。由and连接两个句子，成为并列句，再一个which引导的定语从句。
2. 有问题的句子的列举
考生写的句子容易出现三个问题：一是使用破碎句，二是使用接连句，三是句子连接不正确。
1). 破碎句
所谓破碎句，就是句子不完整，通常是没有谓语(或者说谓语是动词的非谓语形式，如分词)，或者是从句单独成句。
破碎句：She singing alone. (无谓语，singing是现在分词)
正确句：She is singing alone.
破碎句：He did not come. Because he was sick. (从句单独成句)
正确句：He did not come because he was sick.
2).接连句
所谓接连据，就是两个句子直接连在一起，既未使用连词，也未使用正确的标点符号。
接连句: Professionals such as lawyers or accountants usually work longer hours than factory workers they have greater freedom in planning their time.
正确句一: Professionals such as lawyers or accountants usually work longer hours than factory workers. However, they have greater freedom in planning their time.
正确句二: Professionals such as lawyers or accountants usually work longer hours than factory workers; however, they have greater freedom in planning their time.
3).句子连接不正确
所谓句子连接不正确，就是两个独立的句子之间以逗号连接，这是不合英语语法的。正确的做法是以连词、分号、冒号、句号等连接两个句子。
不正确句: Breaking chalk into two pieces is a physical change, there is no change in the composition of the chalk.
正确句： Breaking chalk into two pieces is a physical change, so there is no change in the composition of the chalk.
II 高分表达
除了在句式上长短句相结合准确表达外，朗阁海外考试研究中心建议新托福考生要使用一些特殊的句式，以使句型多样化。句型多样化也是作文得到高分的条件之一。除了我们之前经常提到的高分句式，如倒装句、强调句、状语前置、插入语等，笔者还提出另外一个句式的多样变化，即主语多样化。下面笔者将列举几个句子概括介绍前面四种句型，而重点分析主语多样化。
正常句： Luck only works in extreme cases.
倒装句： Only in extreme cases does luck work.(否定词位于句首的倒装。)
正常句： The internet provides people access to the latest information.
强调句： It is the internet that provides people access to the latest information. (强调the internet)
正常句： The environment has been deteriorating severely along with the development of industry.
状语前置句： Along with the accelerating development of industry, the environment has been deteriorating severely.
正常句： However, new zoos try to duplicate animals’ natural habitats as much as possible and give animals a comfortable amount of space.
插入语： New zoos, however, try to duplicate animals’ natural habitats as much as possible and give animals a comfortable amount of space. (连词however做插入语)
主语多样
1. 她突然想到了一个主意。
She suddenly had an idea.
通常情况下，考生会马上对这句话进行翻译，基本不会动句子结构。但是以人作为主语的英语句子总是不能够很吸引人，所以这个句子如果稍微做下修改，以后面的宾语“主意”做主语，这个句子会发生一些变化。
An idea suddenly occurred to her.
2. 他开车心不在焉，几乎闯祸。
He was absent-minded when driving, and almost caused an accident.
这句话依然是拿人做主语，稍微改一下，把心不在焉这个形容词的名词形式做主语，会大不相同。
His absence of mind during driving nearly caused an accident.
3. 美利坚合众国创立于1789年。
The United States of America was founded in 1789.
这句话没有任何错误，但是不够多样，可以用时间作主语。
The year 1789 witnessed the founding of the United States of America.
III 实用句型
在文章的最后，朗阁海外考试研究中心为大家列举几个新托福考试中可以使用的套用句型，为一些写句子摸不着头绪的考生提供帮助。
1. It pays to make great efforts to prepare for TOEFL-ibt.
努力准备新托福考试是值得的。
2. Nothing is more important than to receive education.
没有比接受教育更重要的了。
3. The reason why the white-collars suffer increasing work-related stress is that they pursue work achievement in career.
白领压力日益增加的原因是他们在事业上有所追求。
4. It is time the related department took proper measures.
(虚拟句式)相关部门早该采取适当的措施了。
如何提高托福写作的能力
首先，夯实语法基础。
很对学生都会认为，托福语法对于中国学生来说并不是件难事。中国英语的教学，从小讲究准确的语法。而且，托福写作中也不要求太过奢华的语法表现，懂得主谓宾正常的构句规则和强调句、倒装句的运用足以让们完成一篇作文。但是，要提醒大家，对于语法的理解和实际运用还是有一定区别的，怎么提高托福写作能力?建议大家多去动笔写。写完后，让身边的老师或是“托友”看看，找到每一个语法错误点。
其次，增强文章条理性。
熟读过一些典型托福范文的同学，都应该了解，托福写作很讲求文章的逻辑严密性的。有人还甚至觉得他的结构与八股文相比有过之而无不及，但是，小编建议大家不要轻视了这作文结构。之前我们提到考查是否有能力用逻辑思维方法来表达自己对事物的想法和看法，实际上也就是在文章的结构上得以表达。大家在练习作文时，往往会觉得如何准确用词会是练习的重点，会费去练习的大量时间。其实，如何构建一个严密的逻辑框架才是训练之重，需要被放在首位。
最后，注重语言的多样性。
有了清晰的逻辑结构，就像全文有了骨架，身下的工作就是怎样为他充实。这也就是在托福写作过程中语言的多样性。怎么提高托福写作能力?这就需要我们平时对于一些词汇和句式的多加积累和不断练习使用。毕竟，在托福写作中，考官不想看到过于华丽高端的词汇，而通顺流程才是他们最希望能看的。
