1月27日的托福考试,同学们觉得题目难么?
对此,广之旅精英君今天特意邀请了教育出国考试研究院唐院长来指导同学要如何写出托福高分作文。
首先,我们来回顾1月27日的托福独立写作题:
Topic:
Which do you think is the most important factor for a student to succeed at college or university?
1. Tutors in university.
2. The encouragement from family.
3. High-quality education from high school.
Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.
这篇托福独立写作题目要如何构思写作呢?我们来听唐院长怎么说。
三选一的托福独立写作题目让考生困惑,也许因为不理解题目到底问什么。这种情况对于老师来说也是差不多。没有借口,不管如何,一定要回答。答错或答对都不是写作评分标准。高分作文的表现是全面答题,逻辑连贯,辞汇资源,文法精确。
本文作者选择第二个因素:家庭的经济鼓励是学生在大学期间能够成功获得文凭的主要关键。既然选了第二,那么第一和第三怎么处理呢?一般不完全置之不理,而是并入到第二的讨论中 。你的选择是哪一道?答得来或答不出来,一样都得回答,自圆其说即可,不必考虑是否符合主流标准。
接下来,我们一起来欣赏唐院长推荐的托福独立写作高分范文:
In today’s society of the growing opportunity gap, a tremendous amount of a student’s success at college or university is determined by the encouragement from that student’s family. Precisely, college success and graduation are more likely for students who have parents financially involved. Believe it or not, the wealth of the family is the most important factor for a student to get a degree.
Believe it, for a student to get a college degree, parental contributions in terms of money should not be overlooked due to some hard realities. While a post-secondly credential has never been more demanding than ever before, college has never been more expensive. It is true that college remains the best investment a student can make in the future, but the problem now is money, or the lack of it. For this reason, many students drop out from colleges and fail to complete degrees. Unfortunately but truly, hard work and academic talent often matter less than the ability to pay the cost of a higher education. If a degree is a marker of a student’s success in college, a student would find it difficult or even impossible to make it without the financial encouragement from the more privileged family backgrounds.
Believe it again! The most important factor for a student to succeed in college is more directly related to sufficient money provided by the family, than to professional advice from tutors in university, or to high-quality education from high school. The basic argument is that some people happen to be born to families that are better off, better educated, and better situated, and that matters a lot and that puts them at a natural advantage. Accordingly in real life, rich dull students are more likely to get a college degree than smart poor students. Considering all that, it is as if to say that much of a student’s success in college depends on what is called the “birth lottery,” and people have no say in the card they draw. It has become evident that, without the financial substance from the family, neither academic performance from a student since high school, nor tutoring from university can be a decisive factor leading to a degree.
Whether people believe it or not, the most important factor contributing to a student’s success in college must be directly related to the family richness. Strictly speaking, parents’ financial involvement can make or break it. Those who think otherwise, think again!(423 words)
