常有同学很困惑,托福写作究竟怎样才能拿到高分?ETS究竟喜欢什么样的语句呢?下面是出出国老师总结的答案,希望对考生有所帮助。
出出国老师指出,在托福写作中,讲究具体具体再具体。这也就说明了句子写的越细,考生的得分就会越高,在此出出国老师提醒考生并不是用拽文的方式来增长句子,而是通过增加句子成分来扩充句子。下面让我们一起来看看吧。
扩充句子的方式主要有,增加修饰成分、增加从句、增加并列成分和增加连词等。让我们来具体练习一下:
They grow long hair.
这个句子一看就很枯燥,没有精彩之处,我们利用以上的办法来修改这句话,就变成了以下的句子:
They grow long hair, regardless of the gender, usually part of which is dyed in gold.
这句话就精彩很多了,有修饰成分也有从句,ETS看到这类句子自然会多给分数的。
同样的道理,我们做以下的练习看看。
1.They wear jeans.
They wear jeans in each and every season, commonly knees of which are deliberate torn.
2.Boys wear earrings.
Boys are keen on earrings and other weird ornaments.
3.Girls smoke.
Girls are fond of Marlboros or some odd bad words.
下面是一组多个句子组成的一段话。
Energy is much needed now. And nuclear plants are clean and economical. They can produce vast amounts of energy. But people, especially local residents are very concerned about safety. They hold a strong negative attitude toward them.
这几个句子都是简单句,虽然表达的意思很清楚,但是明显没有满足ETS的高分需求,下面我们要将上面的这几个句子搭配成一个完整的复杂句。
合并句子的准则是:同一个词汇可以合并,变成从句或修饰成分。修改后的句子为:
Nuclear plants are a clean and economical way of producing vast amounts of much-needed energy, however people, especially local residents, who are very concerned about safety, hold a strong negative attitude toward them.
再做两个练习:
1.修改前:Some people succeed. Other people fail. The difference is not the number of opportunities. It is whether they can take advantage of opportunities. Opportunities will arise in the course of one’s life, though they are rare.
修改后: One essential difference between those who succeed and those who fail is the extent to which they take advantage of opportunities rather than the number of opportunities, which will inevitably arise, if rarely, in the course of one’s life.
2.修改前:College students now are primarily interested in grades and economic success. They are expected to cheat more frequently. They are unlike those graduated ten years ago. They are only interested in their own personal future and consider little the problem of society.
修改后:College students, primarily interested in grades and economic success, are expected to cheat more frequently than those who graduated ten years ago and are far less concerned with the problem of society than with their own personal future.
