【寫作提分】托福寫作高分經(jīng)驗(yàn) 找到寫作的平衡觀點(diǎn)
中國考生最習(xí)慣中庸,即便是討論一個(gè)掛點(diǎn)也會(huì)兩方面都涉及到,其實(shí)這是一種折中的方案,是一種平衡的觀點(diǎn)。那關(guān)于托福寫作的審題方法呢?托福范文TOEFL寫作欄目為大家整理的是關(guān)于托福寫作話題的審題方法介紹。
一、關(guān)于托福寫作的平衡點(diǎn)
很多托福作文的提問方式都是Do you agree or disagree或是To what extent do you agree or disagree。很多剛接觸托福考試的學(xué)生都認(rèn)為這種回答無非就是yes或no,所以文章的觀點(diǎn)也就只能是同意或者不同意了。其實(shí)對于這類提問,也可以采取“折衷”的觀點(diǎn),即“partly agree,partly disagree”。
比如有題目問“現(xiàn)在很多人用動(dòng)物做試驗(yàn),你同意嗎?”,考生可以在文中分別討論支持和反對動(dòng)物試驗(yàn)的理由,最后提出動(dòng)物試驗(yàn)既有好處也有壞處,這就是一種“折中”觀點(diǎn)。除此之外,作者還提出了是否能用動(dòng)物來做試驗(yàn)主要是取決于試驗(yàn)是否能給人類生活帶來顯著的改善(比如幫助人類發(fā)明治療Aids的藥物),這就屬于“折中”方案,也就是對觀點(diǎn)的一種平衡介紹。
二、如何進(jìn)行平衡的寫作
1.興利除弊
這是一種比較簡單又折衷的方法,在優(yōu)缺點(diǎn)類的文章中很常見。在結(jié)尾段可以帶一句“優(yōu)缺點(diǎn)都有,我們要興利除弊”就可以了,如考題:The advantages brought by the spread of English as a “global language” will outweigh the disadvantages. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this view?
結(jié)尾可以帶一句:To sum up, it is difficult to tell whether or not the advantages outweigh the disadvantages regarding the spread of English as a global language. What we may have to consider is how to accept this trend as positive while at the same time staying away from its drawbacks.
2.平衡發(fā)展
也有考題是要考生討論兩種觀點(diǎn),比如discuss both views and give your own opinion。在很多情況下,文中說到的兩種觀點(diǎn)表面上看來是完全相反,但其實(shí)并不矛盾,完全可以用“平衡發(fā)展”的思路在總結(jié)。如考題:Some people think that cultural traditions may be destroyed when they are used as money-making attractions aimed at tourists. Others believe it is the only way to save these traditions. Discuss on both sides and give your opinion.
結(jié)尾可以是:We should find the right balance between tourism development and cultural protection and I believe the government has a very important role to play here. In my own country,for example,many tourist cities have made effective development plans to successfully attract large numbers of visitors while still preserving their distinct cultural traditions.
