大家參加托??荚嚩际潜贾叻秩サ?,對于得高分的期待也沒有上限,越高越好。但是想要拿到高分,我們就要滿足高分的要求。。下面小編就和大家分享托福寫作高分攻略,希望能夠幫助到大家,來欣賞一下吧。

托福寫作高分攻略

一.了解詞匯使用背景和習慣

例如,英美人對landlord和peasant兩詞的理解與中國人截然不同。英美人對前者的理解首先是“房東”,然后才是“地主”;而peasant一詞對他們來說意味著“粗俗”與“無知”,此詞多少帶有貶義色彩。再如propaganda一詞在中國并不帶有西方人所理解的貶意;而First lady (夫人)絕不能理解為漢語的原配夫人,因此在寫作中應特別注意這類詞,否則會導致冒犯和誤解。由于東西方社會歷史文化的差異,許多詞所引申或代表的內(nèi)容也大相徑庭,Phoenix在西方象征“復活”、“再生”,而漢語的這一詞卻表示“祥瑞”。Peach在漢語中象征“長壽”而在英語中卻用以指代“特別討人喜愛的人或物”。又比如在表示色彩的詞中g(shù)reen是青春的顏色,常表示希望、活力,但在英語中g(shù)reen又與“妒忌” (to be green with envy,green-eyed)和“沒有經(jīng)驗的”(a green horn)聯(lián)系起來。如果沒有廣泛的閱讀積累,養(yǎng)成經(jīng)常查字典的良好習慣,單憑想當然地選詞,勢必會詞不達意。即使同一事物,在美國和英國也可能有不同的表達。例如:corn一詞在美國指“玉米”而在英國泛指“谷物”;“地鐵”在英國用tube或underground美國則用subway。此類的例子還有pavement/sidewalk, Chemists‘ shop/drug store等。

二.區(qū)分同義詞才能更好地使用同義詞

由于歷史的原因,現(xiàn)代英語除本族語外,還包括大量的法語和拉丁來源的飼,這就使英語的同義詞相當豐富。總的來講,英語本族語大多是短詞,小詞,聽起來樸素)親切,大量用于口頭表達:法語來源的詞莊重文雅,多與行政、宗教、軍事、服飾等有關(guān);拉丁來源的詞,書卷味濃, 如ask,question,inter-rogate這三個不同來源的同義詞在不同的主題、對象、情景下用法就不一樣。同義詞除了來源的不同會影響措詞的選擇外,它們在程度、感情色彩上也有不同。比如“瘦”可以用slender,slim,lean, thin,underweight,gaunt, lanky,skinny等來表達,而sleder表示“苗條”是褒義的,skinny卻是貶義的,underweight則是中性的詞。即使同是褒義詞,表達的感情色彩也不同。比如little和petite兩個同義詞當用來描繪女子時,都意為“個子小”的,但petite同時還有“勻稱”的意義,而little更強調(diào)“可愛的”或“可憐的”,根據(jù)不同的上下文,它還有“http://toefl.533.com纖小”、“嬌小”或“弱小”等不同意義。因此在選詞表達思想時,一定要分清主題,對象及情景。

另外,讓中國學生頭痛的是一些同義詞的習慣搭配。比如large和big都指“大”,但large通常用來修飾諸如number,amount及quantity(a large number of students,a large amount of money,a large quantity of wine,etc)。但象“勇氣”,“信心”,”能力”、“智慧”等表示個人素質(zhì)的名詞,人們通常用呷碰而不用big或large來修飾。由此可見,在英語寫作實踐中,區(qū)分同義詞的用法是相當重要的。

三.英漢無對應詞匯妥善處理

不是所有的英語詞匯都有相應的漢語表達,一些不同的英語詞匯也有可能用同樣的漢語來表達,這就使我們在用英語來表達思想對面臨更多選擇上的困難。比如family和home兩詞都可譯成漢語的“家”,但它們卻不是同義詞。Family主要指家庭成員,與人有關(guān),而home主要指所居住的地點、住宅。Except和besides有時都譯成同樣的漢語“除了”,但他們的意思卻是相反的。因此我們不能依賴于單純的漢語譯意。否則我們可能會被誤導。盡管許多英語對應的漢語詞匯都能表達它們真正的意思,但往往有些英語詞匯沒有準確的漢語對應詞;所以只有在不同的上下文中才能確定它們真正的意思,比如send一詞,如果單把它理解成漢語的“送”的話,象這樣的句子“她送信給我”也許會被寫成she sent me the letter.而英語準確的表達應是she brought me the letter.再如“他將送朋友去機場”,如果寫成He will send his friend to the airpot。就又錯了。正確的表達應該是He will go to the airpot with his friend to see him off. 實際上send sth to a place 應該是請別人送去,自己不去。因此,要確定我們所選的詞是否準確、恰當,單憑查詞典還不行。

托福寫作高分離不開準確用詞!大家在平時練習托福寫作的時候也應該多注意這些方面,學習寫作詞匯的時候,不僅要了解文化背景知識,還要知道如何區(qū)分使用同義詞,最后還要知道如何處理無對應關(guān)系的詞匯。

托福寫作語料:電話是否比電視影響更大

【類似題目】

1. Do you agree or disagree with the following statement: The car (automobile) has had a greater effect on society than the airplane. 對于社會而言,汽車比飛機的影響更大,是否同意這個觀點? (2012年8月19日)

2. Do you agree or disagree with the following statement:If you need to discuss upsetting or controversial problems with others, using e-mail/text messaging is better than using telephone/voice-messaging. 討論棘手的問題,是不是電子郵件比電話更加合適? (2012年3月10日)

3. Do you agree or disagree with the following statement:Good teachers are more important to a child's development than good parents. 教師比家長對于孩子的影響更大,是否認同?

【托福獨立寫作評分標準】:

1. 有效回應題目,闡明文章主題。

2. 邏輯條理清楚,論證充分展開。

3. 內(nèi)容連貫一致,銜接自然流暢。

4. 遣詞造句地道,語言駕馭嫻熟。

【頭腦風暴導言】:

“零電視族”、“無線互聯(lián)網(wǎng)時代”、“手機客戶端”,初見此題,這些詞匯浮現(xiàn)腦海,所有科技產(chǎn)品對人們生活的影響無非是教育角度、信息角度、娛樂角度等。但是,即使是今日古稀之年的老者亦會使用微信交流,利用支付寶付費。免費的WI-FI在眾多公共場所已然普及,手機之影響潛移默化,勢不可擋。

【作家立場】:對比電視,手機給人們的生活帶來更多的便利,因此,手機更多地影響了人們的生活。

【文章布局】:

首段:背景介紹 + 爭議焦點 + 作家立場

二段:次支持作家立場

三段:第二次支持作家立場

四段:第三次支持作家立場

尾段:讓步不支持觀點的合理性 + 再次亮明觀點

【思路拓展】:手機為何更多地影響人們的生活:

1. 交流角度:手機因其攜帶便利,可助人們危機處理。例如,老人出門感到身體不適,可以打緊急求助電話。再比如,年輕女孩錯過了回家的末班車,可以通過電話求助親朋好友。

2. 娛樂角度:手機閱讀成為豐富人們精神生活的重要源泉。以我為例,我每日喜歡閱讀和分享微信的朋友圈圖文,在我遇到困境的時候,我喜歡求助于的朋友圈,通常,我的難題會迎刃而解,因此,手機成為我生活中不可缺少的部分。同時,手機成為現(xiàn)代人增強人際關(guān)系,拓寬交友圈的不可缺少的工具。例如,春季期間,人們習慣用微信拜年,發(fā)放電子紅包,讓親朋分享快樂。

3. 便利角度:我喜歡旅行,在旅途中,手機APP 給我的出行帶來極大的便利。我喜歡用手機軟件在《去哪兒》網(wǎng)預定機票和酒店。這不僅便利省時,而且,我可比較和選擇價格低廉,時間便利的航班,以及交通發(fā)達,口碑良好的酒店。我曾經(jīng)自駕旅行,手機高德地圖APP使我輕松抵達旅行目的地。

【思路拓展】:電視為何也影響人們的生活:

1.我不得不承認:電視作為重要的科技產(chǎn)品,對于特定人群亦有影響。以老者為例,很多人不會使用手機復雜的功能,依然通過電視了解時政,消遣娛樂。考慮到他們視力已然下降,因此,電視才是他們的獲取信息和娛樂放松的源泉。

First,the reason why the mobile phone enjoys more popularity is that it enables users to contact others by a device that they can carry around, thus, it actually brings huge convenience to people’s communication.

【原創(chuàng)范文②】:支持電視比電話影響更大

首段:背景介紹 + 爭議焦點 + 作家立場

The 21st century has witnessed the prosperity of high-tech products, the contrivance of the telephone and television has profoundly revolutionized people’s life in many respects. People’s views differ greatly as to whether or not telephone exerts a far more profound impact on their lives compared with television. Personally speaking, television is more influential although telephone enjoys its unique merits.

【解析】:

2. Personally speaking, television is more influential although telephone enjoys its unique merits. 我認為:電視的影響更大,盡管電話亦有其優(yōu)點。

二段: 電視為何更多地影響人們的生活:談及電視的教育功能

My first convincing argument could be easily explored. A variety of television shows have been gradually becoming an effective way to entertain modern people, who are living under a pool of pressure due to academic study or heavy workload. As for those students, so busy is the study life and so huge is the study stress that they nearly have no time available to enjoy some amusements such as playing games or hanging out with their friends, thus, watching television greatly conduces to relaxing their bodies and easing their minds. A survey conducted by Vista can justify my stand, after polling many teenagers, many respondents claimed that having a short break via watching television is their best stress-reducer.

【解析】:

1. So busy is the study life and so huge is the study stress that they nearly have no time available to enjoy some amusements 學生,生活繁忙,壓力巨大,以至于他們沒有時間娛樂放松。

2. Watching television greatly conduces to relaxing their bodies and easing their minds 看電視,極其有助于他們放松身心。

3. Having a short break via watching television is their best stress-reducer. 通過看電視短暫休息是他們的放松方式。

三段:電視為何更多地影響人們的生活:談及電視的娛樂功能

This issue reminds me of my friend Paul, who is a father with a eighteen-year-old child. As he said, some excellent TV programs such as “Lecture Room” can perfectly enact the role of educator, which can broaden children’s mental horizons and enlighten children’s wisdom. More precisely, those TV programs could exert a beneficial influence on children, namely, instructive programs could help those who are in the formative years to acquire a wealth of knowledge in different fields unconsciously.

【解析】:

1. Some excellent TV programs such as “Lecture Room” can perfectly enact the role of educator 一些的電視節(jié)目,例如《百家講壇》可完美扮演教育者的角色。

2. broaden children’s mental horizons and enlighten children’s wisdom 可以拓寬孩子視野,啟迪孩子智慧。

3. Instructive programs could help those who are in the formative years to acquire a wealth of knowledge in different fields unconsciously. 有教育意義的電視節(jié)目可以幫助孩子們不知不覺中學習很多領(lǐng)域的知識。

四段:電話為何也對人們的生活有影響:

Indeed, I have to concede that telephone also has indispensable roles to play in modern people’s life, especially serving the function of mutual communication. Thanks to the invention of the telephone, the distance among modern people has become more intimate. For instance, a large number of people use cell phone QQ, Skype and other App to chat with their friends or parents no matter how for they live from them. What I want to rebut,however,is that in comparison with the mobile phone, television could impose more positive influence on one’s mental growth, charter-training and acquisition of knowledge.

【解析】:

1. Telephone also has indispensable roles to play in modern people’s life 電話在人們的生活中也可以發(fā)揮不可缺少的作用。

2. What I want to rebut,however,is that …… 但是,我想要反駁的是……

3. Television could impose more positive influence on one’s mental growth, charter-training and acquisition of knowledge. 對于個人的精神成長,性格培養(yǎng),知識習得,電視的積極影響更大。

尾段:再次亮明觀點 + (總結(jié)理由)

In a nutshell, my stand is that the limited benefits of the telephone could never outshine the entertainment and the educational benefits brought about by the television.

托福寫作:怎么做到善用例子

如動物→鳥類,現(xiàn)代交通方式→飛機,上面的舉例是簡單的形式,即對單個詞/短語,或說單個對象舉例。我們在獨立寫作中會遇到對單個對象的舉例,這也是大家都能做好的;但我們更常遇到的是需要對一個句子,或說多個對象互相聯(lián)系而串成的觀點舉例的情況,這時我們就需要留意我們所舉的例子的有效性了。

托福寫作舉例的基本原則:

a. 細節(jié)性原則----細于被舉例者。

b. 一致性原則----良好體現(xiàn)與要用舉例證明的觀點的一致對應關(guān)系,觀點中的重點信息應在例子中不多不少地體現(xiàn)。

新托福寫作真經(jīng)介紹的舉例的具體操作方法:

粗舉,細舉,引調(diào)查,列數(shù)字。

(1)粗例----粗獷的例子

“粗例”即一類人、物或事,或一個公認事實的例子,說白了就是多數(shù)人都能認可的信息。尋找這類例子的時候比較輕松,只要在觀點中找出可以繼續(xù)細化的重點信息然后"narrow down"就可以了。

觀點1: Employers are willing to pay a premium for highly qualified applicants.

粗例1: International companies desire bilingual employees and offer higher salaries to attract them.

“粗例”可以建立“面”對“線”的關(guān)系,但需要注意不能太空洞,同時也要控制使用的量;粗例子需要搭配因果分析、比較論證來使用,才能使整個段落更有血肉。
