托福综合写作高分技巧
托福是由美国教育测验服务社(ETS)举办的英语能力考试,全名为“检定非英语为母语者的英语能力考试”,中文由TOEFL而音译为“托福”。托福的写作考试怎样能够拿到高分呢?
首先,知己知彼,才能百战不殆。在托福写作语言的运用上,明确规定语言的运用要达到熟练,那么,就需要考生多多掌握写作中的亮点句型句式,体现出句法的多样性,以及词汇选择的恰当性。大家要注重句型句式的积累,但是,很多备战的考生往往特别容易忽视写作中的小词。妙用小词短句,才是应付托福考试,取得高分的关键。例如,thus, rather than making progress, people star to wind down since they’ve lost their motivation for working; so would the teachers.
学生们从事兼职工作不是为了赚钱,而是为了更好地了解社会。
college students take up part-time jobs not for making more money, but for an opportunity to understand the society.
其次,细化列举是对主题句中的关键词或关键情节的细化。表示细化列举的小词很有表现力,可以直接给出托福写作中的核心部分:举例子。这正是很多考生最需要加强的环节。灵活运用这类小词,句法上看起来更为灵活,同时,句意表达起来也更生动,这样,才有可能得取高分。这里我们给出部分加分词的用法和例子,供大家参考。
