掌握4个备考技巧为你的托福写作提分
通俗易懂的内容
这点其实是托福写作中最重要的一点,首先你要保证你文章的内容要符合逻辑也要让人看懂。ETS出托福作文试题时特别注意选择一些弹性不是很大的题目,因为托福考试作为一种语言测试方式,其重点在于测试考生英语语言水平,考生在构思时只要保证自己的内容符合逻辑,能够言之有理、切题即可,然后把更多的注意力放在如何追求语言的得体性上。在考场上,考生在构思内容上所花的时间不应超过5分钟,在认真读题并将其理解透彻以后,考生可以在试卷题目下方的空白处列一个简短的提纲,以此作为写作过程中内容的提示,在提笔开始写作的过程中就可将重点放在保证语言的流畅得体上,不会因为内容而中断思路。
结构清晰的文章
这一点是考查了考生的逻辑和语言组织能力。托福高分作文结构模式化,这是最核心的策略。托福作文考题不仅题目弹性小,而且题型相对稳定,这就为考生在短期内提高作文分数创造了一个条件,使考生完全可以在考前针对考试中可能出现的题型按照固定的结构模式进行训练。
巧用华丽的语言
这一点是对前两点的辅助。如果前两点做的很好,我们可以适当再把语言包装一下,托福高分作文基本收入囊中了。托福明确要求高分作文的句子要做到多样化,所以最好不要全盘使用简单句,这样会降低文章的层次、复杂句和简单句应在文章中交叉出现,而对一些描述性的例证以及临时想起的内容可以使用简单句。
准备充分的前期
要想取得新托福写作高分,少不了前期的充分准备!考前建议考生每个题型写两篇文章,对照范文找差距,不断修改,不断完善,这个过程不仅会帮助考生强化固定的结构模式,还可以使他们在语言方面做好准备。练习的要点是宜精不宜多,不要走入只写不改、以多求胜的误区。另外考生要多研究范文,而不是机械地背诵范文,研究范文要抓住文章的构思、结构、句式、词汇等方面。
小编给出的这四个方法其实是很基础的,但又很实用。希望各位考生在锻炼托福写作技巧的同时,兼顾文章质量。不过,考生也要有信心,因为托福的写作整体难度不是很大,平时只要多练习,一定可以在托福考试中取得好的成绩!
细说托福写作不同开头
托福写作有很多种开头,下面小编为学生们介绍如何写出一个合理的开头。
托福综合写作:开头方法一、比较新颖、有创意的开头
“As technologies and the demand for certain services change, many workers will lose their jobs. The responsibility for those people to adjust to such change should belong to the individual worker, not to government or to business.
As a saying goes, “God helps those help themselves”, which is true in most cases. But as far as the large numbers of laid-off workers caused by the technological and market changes are concerned, I believe the government and the business certainly have an unshakable responsibility to take.
托福综合写作:开头方法二、 可以适当的复述一下题目,然后稍作让步,再表达自己的观点和立场
“Work greatly influences people’s personal lives—their special interests, their leisure activities, even their appearance way from the work place.”
The speaker claims that our jobs greatly influence our personal interests, recreational activities and even appearance. While I agree that the personal lives of some people are largely determined by their work, in my view it would be a mistake to draw this conclusion generally. In my observation, the extent to which occupation influences personal life depends on the nature of the work, and how central the work is to one’s sense of self.
“We shape our buildings and afterwards our buildings shape us.”
I believe this statement should be interpreted broadly—to mean that we are influenced by the exterior shape of buildings, as well as by the arrangement of multiple buildings and by a building’s various architectural and aesthetic elements. While I doubt that buildings determine our character or basic personality traits, I agree that they can greatly influence our attitudes, moods, and even life styles.
托福综合写作:开头方法三、新托福写作可以以提问方式开头,阐述自己的观点,再表明自己的立场
“As technologies and the demand for certain services change, many workers will lose their jobs. The responsibility for those people to adjust to such change should belong to the individual worker, not to government or to business.”
As technology and changing social needs render more and more jobs obsolete, who is responsible for helping displaced workers adjustWhile individuals have primary responsibility for learning new skills and finding work, both industry and government have some obligation to provide them the means of doing so.
托福综合写作:开头方法四、可以先表明自己的立场,再阐述原因
Businesses are as likely as are governments to establish large bureaucracies, but bureaucracy is far more damaging to a business than it is to a government.
Contrary to the statement’s premise, my view is that businesses are less likely than government to establish large bureaucracies, because businesses know that they are more vulnerable than government to damage resulting from bureaucratic inefficiencies. My position is well supported by common sense and by observation.
