在托福写作中,一个重要的评分标准和句型有关:要有句型使用的丰富性,要有句式的变化。考生在托福写作中能够使用一些比较好的句型无疑为自己加分不少。文章开门见山,直截了当提出作者对文章要讨论的问题的观点,也即文章的中心思想。就是“直抒心意”,前程百利小编为大家带来这种方法的几种句型。希望对大家有所帮助。
句型举例一:
Nothing / Few things /No idea / opinion belief / view / attitude is /are more / as foolish /dangerous/untrue/undesirable/basic/important/essential than/as... (which is widely/commonly/generally/held by...)
例句:
Nothing, we have been told these years, is more educative than participating in or listening to an exchange of opinion. The seminar, the conference, the lecture, the panel discussion on the radio ------ how fine, how liberating, how instructive they are to us all, to the participants and to those at their receiving sets. They can not only acquaint one with many facts, but help deepen one's understanding of social phenomena and relationships, and broaden one's outlook.
这些年来我们都感到没有什么比参加一个讨论或听听别人的思想交流更有教育意义的了。大型讨论会,大型会议讲座以及电台直播室的讨论对我们所有人,对参加者或是听众都是那么美妙,那么有意义,有启迪作用。这些讨论不仅使我们了解了许多事实,而且有助于加深对各种社会现象和关系的理解,开阔眼界。
句型举例二:
Never/Nowhere in history/the world China has the issue/change/idea of .... been more as visible/evident/popular than ... as ...
例句:
Nowhere in the world has the issue of birth control been more evident than in China. The nation is faced with such serious situation as the one in which its population is increasing much faster than the supply of food and available resources.
世界上没有一个地方比中国的计划生育问题更突出的了。这个国家正面临着十分严峻的形势,其人口增长的速度正大大超过粮食供应的速度和自然资源供应的速度。
句型举例三:
It is about high time we exploded /shattered /freed ourselves from the myth/illusion/fiction about ...
例句:
It's about time somebody exploded that old myth about childhood being the happiest of your life. Childhood may certainly be fairly happy,free from financial worries and the anxiety about social ladders. But have you heard our children today groaning under the ever-increasing burden of studies? Have you seen them stay up almost every night simply to finish a day's homework?
现在应该是揭穿长期来认为童年是人的一生中最幸福的时代这个古老神话的时候了。童年固然很幸福,孩子们没有经济上的忧愁,也没有争名夺利的焦虑。但是人们是否听到现在的孩子在日益沉重的学习负担下发出的呻吟声?人们是否看到孩子们为了完成一天的功课,几乎天天熬夜?
句型举例四:
Perhaps/Maybe we should/it is time to rethink /reexamine/have a fresh look at the idea/value/attitude /wisdom/desirability that ...
例句:
Perhaps we should rethink an idea fast becoming an undisputed premise of our life that a college degree is necessary ------ and perhaps even a sufficient ------ precondition for success. I do not wish to quarrel with the assumptions made about the benefits of orthodox education. I want only to expose its false god; the four-year, all-purpose, degree-granting college, aimed at the so-called college-age population and by now almost universally accepted as the stepping-stone to "meaningful" and "better" jobs.
可能我们应当重新考虑一下这个很快成为我们生活毋庸置疑的前提:对成功来说,大学文凭是必要的,或许是先决的条件。我不想反对正统的大学教育带来种种好处的观点。我只想揭示把大学文凭捧上天的虚假性:对象是所谓读大学的适龄青年,目的是培养各种人材的颁发学位的四年制大学现已差不多被公认为是找到"有意义的”、“好的”工作的跳板。
句型举例五:
Now people in growing/increasing/ significant numbers are beginning/coming to realize/recognize/understand/accept/be aware that....
例句:
Now people in growing numbers are coming to recognize that the business spirit, which carries in its torrential course so many of the talents and energies of men into money-making, has shaped our culture and influenced our ideals and aspirations as a people.
现在越来越多的人开始认识到这股下海从商的浪潮把许多人卷进去,使他们把自己的才干和精力都耗在赚钱上。这个重商的风气改变了我们的文化,影响了作为一个民族的我们的理想和抱负。
以上就是前程百利小编为考生带来的托福写作开头方法。这种直抒心意的表达方式比较能够让考官清晰看到自己的写作主旨,但是一定要理解这种方式。考生在阐述自己观点时可以参照使用。大家在平时的阅读中也要注意一些好的英语表达方式。预祝大家托福考试取得好成绩!
