托福独立写作冷门话题破题技巧实例讲解

楚薇2分享

常有托福考生在考完试后抱怨,独立写作又出了个莫名其妙的话题根本不知道怎么写。之所以会出现这种情况,考生自身的知识积累不足当然是一方面原因,但更主要的原因则是大家缺乏应对陌生话题的破题技巧。下面小编就通过实例来为考生讲解具体技巧思路。

托福独立写作冷门话题破题技巧实例讲解

题目:现代生活中制作食物更容易,人们的生活质量也因此提高。你是否同意这种观点?

破题思路分析:

1. 要与论题相匹配

论题问的既然是提高生活质量与否,一些无关紧要的改变就应该弃之不用,比如烹调时间缩短这一项改变,是事实,且未对生活质量有直接明显影响,就应该避免用作主要论点。

2. 要能言之有物

这是再功利不过的一条标准。比如我自己提到了食物准备时间缩短能让人性情改变,破题时觉得不无可能,真落笔时却不知道由何说起,如果选了这一条为一个主要论点,结果是我说了一句话就走人,那还不如选个能下笔,能展示语言功底,也能显示思维缜密的写作方向。

3. 选择的无论是2个还是3个论点,内在一定要有联系

这其实是整个立意阶段的重头。要立意,就是要明白自己表达的对象是什么,明确立场。然后站在这个立场上,挑选支持自己的论点。

如何整理行文思路?

托福写作破题结束后,第二要做的重要事项便是整理行文思路。破题过程其实是个发散思维的过程,而立意,则是要把思维收回来,组织化,理清它的脉络纹路,让他们按照自认为最有说服力的顺序排列好,准备落于纸上的过程。这个说服力的强弱,应该以什么标准判断呢-笔者认为,能说服读者的议论,在论点选择上应该遵循一个原则:三个(或者两个)论点不能在层面上有交叉,但要符合一条明线:支持全文观点。而最打动读者的论点选择,不仅遵循上面的原则,三个看似不交叉的论点间还有一条暗线贯穿一致。令全文浑然天成,回味无穷。

立意的地一步,按照上面的原则看,当然是先确定观点。以题目为例,笔者愿意选择否,食物易于准备降低了人们的生活质量。第一步踏出去了。

确定观点后,破题时得到的思维方向,明显不利于我的就应该排除。比如营养价值改变这一条,虽然速食文化的确对人体有害,但另一项速食:生疏和熟粗粮,就是向有益方向改变的,两者势均力敌,仅管是很容易想到,也很容易举例论证的论点,却不宜使用,因为如此贸然用了,有思维不缜密之嫌。然而,这毕竟是一块好啃的骨头,如果其他论点都不好论证,还可以回头捡起这一条来,隐去健康速食那个事实进行作文,当然,这依然是下下之选。

托福写作高分中的修辞内容

巧用修辞

1. 排比对称结构

Despite all the evidence, experts continue to debate weather global warming exists, how extensive the problem is, what the likely effects will be and whether any remedy is possible.

Despite all the evidence, experts continue to debate the existence of global warming, the extent of the problem, its likely effects and any possible remedy.

2. 比喻

(1)明喻:比喻词出现:as, like, as if…

In many ways, no doubt, our world grows more and more complex, sputniks cannot be simple; yet how many of our complexities remain futile, how many of our artificialities false. Simplicity too can be subtle-as the straight lines of a Greek temple, like the Parthenon at Athens, are delicately curved in order to look straighter still.

(2)暗喻:比喻词不出现。

America has given the Negro people a bad check, which has come back marked insufficient funds.

3. 对照:加深印象

Extremism in defense of liberty is no vice; moderation is the pursuit of justice is no virtue.

4. 类比

The Negro has a callus growing on his soul and it is getting harder and harder to hurt him here. That is a simple law of nature. Like a callus on the foot in a shoe that is too tight. The foot is nature’s and that shoe was put on by man. The tight shoe will pinch your foot and make you holler and scream. But sooner or later, if you do not take the shoe off, a callus will form on the foot and begin to wear out the shoe.

It is the same with the Negro in America. That shoe-the white man’s system—has pinched and rubbed and squeezed his soul until it has almost destroyed him. But it did not. And how a callus has formed on his soul, and unless that system is adjusted to fit him, too, that callus is going to wear our that system.

5. 拟人

Dawn was beginning to prowl about the sky and put out the starts.

6. 夸张

For she was beautiful—her beauty made the bright world dim, and everything beside seemed like the fleeting image of a shade.
