小编:Scofield 531近期去参加托福考试的宝宝们一直在问朱朱:老师为什么我之前随随便便都可以到20+,怎么现在不行了?是不是考试变难了啊? 为什么我背模板木有用了捏?
带着这样的问题,朱朱踏上了去成都SAT/TOEFL年会的道路,在与诸位业内的大咖们交流以后,朱朱充分验证了自己对于托福考试的认知:托福考试中听说读写四项科目其实是不能简单分割,作为一项语言能力考试,如果好好地把输入型的考试内容(阅读和听力)好好学习并且模仿,就可以在很大程度上提升输出型考试项目(写作,口语)。
那么如何在茫茫学海中找到适合自己的写作模板捏?难不成在忙碌的托福备考中还要再去翻阅Economist(经济学人)还有Time (时代周刊)吗?其实不用如此大费周章,直接从我们的托福阅读中就可以获得超赞的写作模板啦~TPO 27 Prey and Predator System
Predatorsare essential factor in maintaining communities that are rich and diverse inspecies. Without predators, the species that is the best competitor for food,shelter, nesting sites, and other environmental resources tends to dominate andexclude the species with which it competes. This phenomenon is known as “competitorspecies, then the populatoion of that competitoe is controlled. Thus even theless competitive species are able to survive. For example, sea stars prey on avariety of bivalve mollusks and prevent these bivalves from monopoling habitatson the sea floor. This opens up space for many other organism.When sea starsare removed, species diversity falls sharply. Therefore, from the stand point ofdiversity, it is usually a mistake to eliminate a major predator from acommunity.
仔细看一下这个文本,不难发现,本段的第一句作为中心句的存在很明确出predator在维持生态多样性上的作用。然后第二句就通过条件句without表明没有predator带来的后果,起到了解释说明的作用。之后进一步用因果关系解释了参与主体(predator)的重要性,其后立刻举例说明,最后用therefore总结全段。这个段落其实就是很明确托福写作主体段的论证顺序。
把上述阅读文本总结一下,就可以得出以下一个写作框架~细读一下,这其实不就是属于我们的另类写作框架吗?还是由ETS官方自己公布的,不能再赞了。
A is an essentialfactor in XX. Without A, XX can have a major impact on XX, resulting in anegative effect on ....However, if A 存在,then....Thus,....For example, XX. Therefore, from the stand point of XX, it is .....
看着觉得难?我们来举个栗子:
Doyou agree or disagree with the following statement: A university should focusmore on its facilities, such as libraries, computers or laboratory, rather thanon hiring famous teachers. (2015.10.24)如果选择大学要更注重基础设施建设的话,就是设施对于学校额重要性。有了这些设施,老师和学生都可以进行更多的学术研究与学习。如果有的话老师和学生就可以获得更多的学术成就了。
Facilitation is an essential factor inacademic behavior of both students and teachers. Without those infrastructures,the lack of study resources can have a major impact on academic behavior,resulting in a negative effect on academic achievement. However, if there wereenough facilitators,then students are more likely to dig for the information they areinterested and teachers, including professors and tutors, are likely to obtainmore accomplishment. Thus,it is extremely necessary for universities to devotefund in facilitators. For example, the installation of computers not onlyenables those students access to the latest information regarding their majorbut aslo allows those professors to update their discoveries. Therefore, fromthe stand point of better schooling result, it is inevitable for theuniversities to lay more emphasis on basic
这样写是不是很简单捏?其实各位备考的同学在准备时一定要做好阅读和听力的输入,精读托福阅读文章,理解中心句和支撑句的关系并且进行模仿,那么就可以快速提升写作成绩。
