叮!您的假期余額不足,還請充值到ETS托福考試賬戶!
隨著疫情漸漸好轉,不出意外,托福考試將在5月份正式重啟,各位同學們是否已經做好準備了呢?相比于聽說讀三項,寫作部分除了要求個人實力,還需要能夠在30分鐘的有間內沖擊300甚至400字的字數,希望大家能夠把在這個假期打游戲練出來的手速應用到考試中去哦!
今天就來給大家分享3個托福獨立寫作語料,快來Pick你心中的萬能句型,用到自己的作文中去吧!Pick me, ei ei~!
一、
第1個語料對于備考SAT的同學來說一定不會陌生,正是來自于可汗SAT閱讀Social Science類Level 2的第一篇文章:A “Happiness Test” for the New Measures of National Well-Being: How Much Better than GDP Are They? 這是一篇討論GDP和人們幸福指數關系的社科類文章,開頭段寫得非常好,大家可以靈活運用到自己的開頭段中。
原文說的是 There is currently a broad global movement away from consideration of mere economic success towards a new public policy goal involving a broader notion of quality of life. This movement has also spurred a rethinking of which statistics inform us best about a country’s situation and how its citizens are faring. 我們把一些地方挖個空,就可以得到如下的萬能獨立寫作開頭段模板:
There is currently a broad global movement away from consideration of mere …. towards a new goal involving ... This movement has also spurred a rethinking of …
舉個例子:
Although science and technology will continue to improve, the most significant improvement of the quality of people’s lives has already taken place.
這是2019年8月25日考到的一道獨立寫作真題,我們對上面摘抄出來的句型稍加改動,就可以得到如下開頭:
In recent years, science and technology is improving in a way that is out of our expectation. During this process, there is currently a broad global movement away from consideration of mere technological improvement towards a new goal involving a broader notion of quality of life. This goal spurs a rethinking of whether the most important improvement that can affect the quality of people’s lives has already appeared.
給看到這里的同學布置一個小任務,嘗試用這個句型來試一試寫2020年1月4日上午場的獨立真題:
Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? It is easier to become educated
today than it was in past.
二、
第二個句子來自于National Geographic 2016年1月號中的一篇文章(p.49):This Is your Brain on Nature. 這篇文章主要講了自然環境能夠幫助人類放松緊繃的情緒,所以大家假期里過度使用手機和電腦等電子設備的同時,也不要忘記看看自己窗外的景色哦!
這篇文章開端的話就非常值得我們借鑒:When we get closer to nature—be it untouched wilderness or a backyard tree—we do our overstressed brains a favor.
We do our overstressed brains a favor. 是不是比我們常用的relax our mind要生動形象很多呢?這篇文章中還有一句對于新加坡綠色環境的描寫:
In Singapore, which aims to be a “city in a garden,” greenery cascading off a luxury hotel soothes a guest in a balcony pool—and people on the street below. “A concrete jungle destroys the human spirit,” former Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew once said.
大家可以自己閱讀一下這句話,看看有沒有哪個短語用得非常漂亮呢?(此處投票給concrete jungle,是不是可以用來巧妙替換我們經常寫的modern buildings和skyscrapers呢?)
我們的小任務又出現啦!大家可以嘗試用剛才的句子來試著寫寫2019年7月15日這道獨立寫作真題哦:
A company wants to spend a certain amount of money to improve its employees’ productivity. Of the following two ways, which one do you think is better? 1. update the technology used by the workers to improve efficiency 2. redesign the office to improve the working environment Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.
三、
最后一條語料取自Foreign Affairs的2020年1/2月刊中的一篇文章:The Many Paths to Progress—and Why They Might Not Continue,作者是Abhijit V. Banerjee和Esther Duflo。
其中在講述一個部分講到現在的市場資源分配問題,作者的語言細節非常充分:
The problem is often not so much that talent, technology, and capital are not available but that the economy does not appear to put them to their best use. Some companies have more employees than they need, while others are unable to hire. Some firms use the latest technology, while others never do. Some entrepreneurs with great ideas may not be able to finance them, while others who are not particularly talented continue operating.
這段話對我們的獨立寫作有一個很好的借鑒作用:論證過程中要有細節!比如后面的some… while others…就是對于第一句話The problem is often not so much that talent, technology, and capital are not available but that the economy does not appear to put them to their best use.(可以看作Topic Sentence)的細節性描寫,我們在寫作過程中也要注意用這樣的細節來豐富自己的觀點哦。
這段語料并不難,大家自己分析后,可以嘗試用進下面2019年3月9日的獨立真題:
The most important problems of the society can be solved during our lifetime.
今天的語料分享就到這里,希望大家能夠靈活運用,也祝各位同學在接下來的托福考試中一切順利哦!
