托福作文高分法則：積累語(yǔ)料 美化語(yǔ)言

在托福考試當(dāng)中，寫作一直是很多考生頭疼的一部分。中國(guó)考生往往對(duì)閱讀和聽(tīng)力這種輸入型的測(cè)試比較在行，而寫作是一種輸出性的測(cè)試，要求考生具備一定的邏輯來(lái)組織和輸出語(yǔ)言，同學(xué)們的作文常常因整體語(yǔ)言過(guò)于簡(jiǎn)單或偏口語(yǔ)化而拿不了高分。

因此要寫出一篇出彩的托福獨(dú)立寫作作文，我們需要從兩個(gè)方面入手：思路和語(yǔ)言。好的思路是通過(guò)練習(xí)解題形成，而好的語(yǔ)言則是積累語(yǔ)料得來(lái)。

就“語(yǔ)料”而，我們平時(shí)在看作文范文的時(shí)候很大一個(gè)任務(wù)就是要從中選取自己可以運(yùn)用的“語(yǔ)料庫(kù)”。同學(xué)們也可以讀英文原版的文章、新聞甚至是托福閱讀文章，找到自己能運(yùn)用的詞、句子或者是論點(diǎn)，從而像堆積木一樣堆積成自己的作文。

下面通過(guò)一道真題為大家講解如何在作文范文中積累“語(yǔ)料”：

題目：

Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Students could receive a better, more efficient education if they spend 11 month a year studying.

下面是一小段范文段落：

What’s more, students need spare time to develop other skills that would benefit their development in turn. People need breaks from their work and study to recreate, to relax, and to be refilled. Also, students should spend time in social activities to develop their skills. For example, party with friends can promote one’s communicating skills when they go around among strangers and try to make friends with them. Also, organizing a social event like a campus music concert can boost one’s leadership skill when they have to lead a group of people and make the final decisions. What’s more, some social activities like a fund raise for the poor can help students to notice the current concerns and issues of the world. All these skills will have a great impact on students’ future development.

在這個(gè)范文段落中有哪些內(nèi)容可以用作我們的“語(yǔ)料”呢?

我們先來(lái)看下這句話“For example, party with friends can promote one’s communicating skills when they go around among strangers and try to make friends with them.”

這句話中“promote one’s communicating skills”的中文意思是“提高溝通能力”。那我們還能怎么運(yùn)用這句話呢?

比如，當(dāng)你遇到以下題目“social activities和classes哪個(gè)更重要?”，你就可以寫“social activities更重要，因?yàn)樗躳romote one’s communicating skills.”

再如，當(dāng)你遇到的題目是“你是選擇big company還是small company工作?”， 你就可以寫“選擇big company工作，因?yàn)槿硕?，可以promote my communicating skills”。

最后，“work alone與work in a team哪個(gè)更加好?”你就可以寫“work in a team更好，因?yàn)榭梢詐romote one’s communicating skills”
