两点托福写作需要避免的事项

信息来源:网络  发布时间:2014-12-26

  托福写作算是比较能够让考生自由发挥的考试科目了,但是其实在托福写作考试中有两大需要避免事项,大家知道吗?下面就让小编来为大家介绍一下托福写作需要避免的事项的相关内容吧,希望能够给准备托福考试的同学带来帮助。
 

  一、避免空洞的单词和词组
 

  1.在托福写作中,一些空洞的单词或词组根本不能为句子带来任何相关的或重要的信息,完全可以被删掉。比如下面的句子:
 

  When all things are considered,young adults of today live more satisfying lives than those of their parents,in my opinion.
 

  这句话当中的when all things are considered和in my opinion都显得多余。完全可以去掉。改为:
 

  Young adults of today live more satisfying lives thantheir parents.
 

  2.有些空洞和繁琐的表达方式可以进行替换。例如:
 

  Due to the fact that our grandparents were under anobligation to help their parents,they did not have theoptions that young people have at this point in time.
 

  due to the fact that就是一个很典型的繁琐的表达方式的例子,可以替换,简化为下面的表达方式:
 

  Because our grandparents were obligated to help theirparents,they did not have the options that youngpeople have now.
 

  二、避免重复
 

  1.在托福写作中,尽量避免重复使用同样的词汇。或者有的时候虽然词汇没有重复,但意思却有重复。这时候可以做一些简化的工作。例如下面这个例子:
 

  The farm my grandfather grew up on was large in size.
 

  large 对一个farm来说就是size方面的large,所以insize可以去掉,改为:
 

  The farm my grandfather grew up on was large.
 

  更简洁的表达方式为:
 

  My grandfather grew up on a large farm.
 

  2.有时一个词组可以用一个更简单的单词来替换,例如:
 

  My grandfather has said over and over again that he hadto work on his parents' farm.
 

  这里的over and over again就可以改为repeatedly,显得更为简洁:
 

  My grandfather has said repeatedly that he had to workon his parents' farm.
 

  以上就是百利天下老师为大家总结的有关托福写作需要避免的事项的内容,希望大家在学习时能灵活运用,注意积累托福备考经验。最后,小编祝大家在托福考试中取得好成绩!
