【托福寫作備考】寫作訓(xùn)練分析及范文(一)
新托福寫作中我們該盡量讓文章言簡意賅,用詞精準(zhǔn)。根據(jù)國外學(xué)者的調(diào)查統(tǒng)計(jì),一個(gè)以句號結(jié)尾的英語句子,單詞的數(shù)量最好不要超過20個(gè),否則的話,句子偏長,聽話人的注意力有可能不集中,漏聽一、兩個(gè)單詞,從而影響對整個(gè)句子的理解。以下內(nèi)容中,我們就通過實(shí)例為大家分析托福寫作的一些經(jīng)典范文。
Some people think that children should begin their formal education at a very early age and should spend most of their time on school studies. Others believe that young children should spend most of their time playing. Compare these two views. Which view do you agree with? Why?
參考分析:
兩種觀點(diǎn)都有些極端。先比較兩種觀點(diǎn),然后選擇一個(gè)折衷的立場。
早上學(xué)的好處和壞處:好處是很多提前上學(xué)的孩子顯得聰明,對付學(xué)習(xí)顯得游刃有余(be more than equal to a task; accomplish a task with ease)。完成formal education的時(shí)候比別人年輕,有更多的選擇余地。壞處是,經(jīng)常挨欺負(fù)(be bullied; be treated rough)。早熟(precocious),可能會有副作用(negative effects)。
晚上學(xué)的好處和壞處:實(shí)際上并不吃虧;學(xué)習(xí)好壞不見得一定跟上學(xué)早晚有必然的聯(lián)系(positive connection)。壞處是,家長如果引導(dǎo)不好,不利于智力發(fā)育(development of child's intelligence)。
立場:不見得一定要盡早上學(xué);孩子確實(shí)應(yīng)該多花一些時(shí)間去玩。但是應(yīng)該正確引導(dǎo),因?yàn)橥嬉卜譃楹枚喾N,玩棋牌游戲顯然比玩泥巴(play with mud)要有益得多。
兒童應(yīng)當(dāng)花主要的時(shí)間玩
(1)人一生只有在兒童的幾年是最快樂的,應(yīng)當(dāng)讓兒童享受這種快樂,給他們未來留下好的印象。
(2)兒童玩對性格培養(yǎng)要好
(3)兒童在玩的時(shí)候,同樣也能夠自然的學(xué)到很多知識。比如說和寵物一起玩,可以知道愛護(hù)動物和自然。
參考范文:
How should children spend their time?
In our rapidly changing world people begin to understand more and more that nothing is so valuable but knowledge. Education has become an important part of people's life. Due to this some people think that children should begin their formal education at a very early age and should spend most of their time on school studies. But others believe that young children should spend most of their time playing. To my mind these two views should be balanced so as not to go to the extremes.
The first point of view that children should start early on their studies make me assume that it can be harmful and damaging for a child's physical development and personality. As a teacher I have seen the result of beginning education too early. Children are deprived of the enjoyment of their childhood years and their intrinsic desire to play. Some children cannot concentrate on their study and keep playing at school. Besides, the children who are not allowed to play and are forced to study can begin to detest the education process and the teachers. So, to force children to study at an early age can spoil the whole picture.
When facing the question of early education it is also important to note that children who begin to study at an early age are often overloaded by studying material and homework, which they are not ready to cope with. Besides some parents neglect their children and do not pay enough attention to the children's problems at school thinking that they are still young.
The second opinion that children should play instead of study also has disadvantages. In this case children are not well prepared for their school life at all. They have no idea what he is going to do at school. In addition, research shows that early education can benefit children's brain development and prepare them better for the futures school education. The most important time for early education could be missed if parents do not send their children to school at an appropriate age.
In conclusion I would like to point out that that early education and play should be well balanced so that their enjoyment of childhood that is once in a lifetime would not be deprived. It is quite important for governments to design and implement an appropriate primary education system so that young children can have chances to both learn and play at school.
