如何拓展托福写作思路

Answer 1

托福考试中写作的字数要求较高。对于不太习惯英文写作的中国学生来说，没有思路是托福写作中经常遇到的问题，主要表现在以下三个方面：
1. 写不够字数，尤其是对初高中学生来说。
2. 车轱辘话来回说，比如：Listening to music canreduce psychological pressure. Listening to musiccan relax people’s brains. Music has advantages notonly to the psychological health but also to physicalhealth. It is found that slow music could slow theheartbeat as well as the breathing rate and bringdown blood pressure.
3. 东一句，西一句，前言不搭后语，逻辑性差。
那么如何解决这些问题呢？
1. 掌握一些扩充思路的方法。比如文章的里有段可以增加一些例子，原因，假设，对比，排比，谚语等。
2. 多读多背一些范文。写作是一个输出的过程，然后没有输入就没有输出。在掌握一些方法的基础之上，多读多背是扩充托福写作思路的关键。俗话说“熟读唐诗三百首，不会作诗也会吟。”读的越多，背的越多，就越能有更多的储备获得高分的作文。
3. 分类记忆，触类旁通。
托福作文题目千千万万，但可以归类为建设类，生活健康类，人品朋友类，科技类，影视类，文化节日类，城乡环保类，资源分配类，学校教育类，工作成功类，生活类及其它类。有的同类题目是有相似的思路和理由的。如下列三个题目：
（1） It has recently been announced that a new movie theater may be built in yourneighborhood. Do you support or oppose this plan? Why? Use specific reasons and details tosupport your answer.
（2） Imagine that you have received some land to use as you wish. How would you use thisland? Use specific details to explain your answer.
（3） What change would make your hometown more appealing to people your age? Usespecific reasons and examples to support your opinion.
这样，分类记忆、触类旁通、以一当十，就能够顾大幅拓展托福写作思路。
