托福作文高分法則：積累語料 美化語言

在托?？荚嚠斨?，寫作一直是很多考生頭疼的一部分。中國考生往往對閱讀和聽力這種輸入型的測試比較在行，而寫作是一種輸出性的測試，要求考生具備一定的邏輯來組織和輸出語言，同學們的作文常常因整體語言過于簡單或偏口語化而拿不了高分。

因此要寫出一篇出彩的托福獨立寫作作文，我們需要從兩個方面入手：思路和語言。好的思路是通過練習解題形成，而好的語言則是積累語料得來。

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

下面通過一道真題為大家講解如何在作文范文中積累“語料”：

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.

在這個范文段落中有哪些內容可以用作我們的“語料”呢?

我們先來看下這句話“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”。那我們還能怎么運用這句話呢?

比如，當你遇到以下題目“social activities和classes哪個更重要?”，你就可以寫“social activities更重要，因為它能promote one’s communicating skills.”

再如，當你遇到的題目是“你是選擇big company還是small company工作?”， 你就可以寫“選擇big company工作，因為人多，可以promote my communicating skills”。

最后，“work alone與work in a team哪個更加好?”你就可以寫“work in a team更好，因為可以promote one’s communicating skills”
