為了回答我們上面提出的兩個問題，首先我們來看一下OG的評分標準。官方指南對托福獨立寫作的評分標準一共有三個維度，分別為展開、組織架構和語言使用。下面我們主要來看一下評分標準如何對語言使用進行描述。

Language use is the third criterion on which your essay will be judged. To get a top score, an essay must display “consistent facility in the use of language.” There should be a variety of sentence structures, and word choice should be appropriate. If your essay includes a few minor lexical or grammatical errors, you can still get a high score. However, if you make a lot of grammatical errors and if those errors make it hard to understand your meaning, you will get a lower score. Raters will also judge your essay based on the complexity of sentence structures and on the quality and complexity of your vocabulary.  If you use very simple sentences and very basic vocabulary, you will probably not be able to express very complex ideas. If your language is hard to follow, your sentences are overly simple, and your vocabulary is limited, you may score no higher than a 3 no matter how impressive your ideas may be.

我們在這段描述中有三個重點，我們分別來看一下：

① There should be a variety of sentence structures…  文章中句式要多樣

② Raters will also judge your essay based on the complexity of sentence structures… 使用復雜的句子結構

③ If your language is hard to follow, your sentences are overly simple, and your vocabulary is limited, you may score no higher than a 3 no matter how impressive your ideas may be. 無論文章觀點多好，過于簡單的句式和過于簡單的詞匯不會使文章超過3分

也就是說，想要考到寫作20+的成績，文章中的句式絕對不能全部都是簡單句，要能夠運用多種句型來體現文章句式的復雜程度。這就需要考生在平時練習的過程中，了解有哪些高級句式，以及句式之間如何進行替換。

Do you agree or disagree with the following statement:

A leader should admit if they made a bad decision. Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.

A good leader has plentiful of features such as sense of humor, patience and leadership that make him or her a perfect leader. However, when it comes to decision making, people’s opinions differ. Some people deem that best leaders are not supposed to make a bad decision while opponents consider making bad decisions a natural part of human being not mentioning best leaders. In my perspectives, best leaders are those who are willing to admit if they have made improper decisions. I shall illustrate my points in the following paragraphs.

First and foremost, admitting of the wrong decisions that are made reflects leaders’ broad minds, which are a must to best leaders. To err is a man. Nobody makes no mistake, but not everyone admit they make bad decisions due to vain self-esteem. Those who are willing to or even like to admit the wrong decision are broad-minded, and people will respect these kind of people. A recent survey about what sort of bosses employees like conducted by a prodigious institute in United States showed that 70% of employees vote for boss who are broad-minded. Therefore, admitting inappropriate decisions makes a leader outstanding.

Another equally important factor is that admission of bad decision making can help a leader avoid errors when faced with similar problems again. Of course, concerning the development of a company or a group, it will be optimal for leaders to make less mistake. Denial of making bad decision may be an idea to make that but not a good one. In a long run, it will be better to admit making wrong decisions in order to avoid similar challenges in the future. Covering mistakes all the time will eventually destroy a company or a group.

Last but not least, denial of making wrong decision show that the leaders have no courage to face what they have done while courage is a vital characteristic for a top leader. There is little doubt that the courage of leader plays a significant part fordevelopments of a company or a group. Without courage to make breakthroughs, it is hard to imagine how a company could survive in the fierce competitions among the modern society. However, denial of making bad decision just show the lack of courage. Therefore, the leader cannot be regarded in the circle of best leaders.

In a nutshell, the admission of making bad decisions can show their broad mind and courage. In order to avoid the similar problems, best leaders should be willing to admit what they have done. Hence, I reinforce my point of view that best leaders are those who are willing to admit if they have made a bad decision.
