托福作文资料

　　Some people like to travel with a companion. Other people prefer to travel alone. Which do you prefer? Use specific reasons and examples to support your choice.

　　Traveling alone is the only way to travel. If you take someone with you， you take your home with you. When you travel alone， you meet new people， have new experiences， and learn more about yourself.

　　When I traveled with my friend， I spend all my time with that friend. We eat together and sightsee together. When I travel alone， I spend my time looking for new friends. It is easy to fine other people， either other tourists or locals， to eat with or have a coffee with. When you share meals with strangers， they become friends.

　　When I travel with a friend， my routine is predictable. We maintain the same schedule that we do at home. When I travel alone， I adopt the rhythm of the place I visit. I might take a nap in the afternoon and eat dinner at 11 pm. I might go to a disco and dance all night.

　　When I travel with a friend， we know how we will react to things. When I travel alone， each new experience requires a new reaction. If I don’t try new things， I won’t be able to decide if I like something or not. Shall I ride an ostr...

　　Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Parents or other adult relatives should make important decisions for their older (15 to 18 year-old) teenaged children. Use specific reasons and examples to support your opinion.

　　No one knows me as well as my parents. No one wants the best for me like my parents. It is natural that I should allow my parents to make important decisions for me. I think all older teenagers (15 to 18 year-olds) should take their parents advice on decisions that concern their education, their social life, and their future careers.

　　My parents have always chosen the best schools for me to attend. They have encouraged me to attend special prep classes to make sure that I was well prepared for the exams. They have given me tutors to make sure that I understood my subjects well. When it comes to choosing a college, I will trust my parents to make that decision. They know what they can afford and what will give me a good education.

　　When I was young, my parents would invite children over to play with me. Over the years, I have become very close to these children. They are like my family. We celebrate holidays and birthdays together. We even go to the mountains...

　　要做菜，油是必不可少的。同样，在托福作文中，也一定会用到“万金油”。用的时候切忌生搬硬套，要灵活运用。

　　在有限的时间内，在确立了我们要写的中心论点之后，就要想出几个分论点，这时可以通过“万金油”来帮助我们节省时间，迅速定位，快速进入写作状态。

　　比如： Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Nowadays, people are putting too much emphasis on appearance and fashion. Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.

　　解这道题目，首先从自己出发，怎么好写，怎么容易写，去确定自己的中心论点。假如从disagree 的角度出发，要从哪几个分论点去论述人们并没有对外表和时尚 putting too much emphasis 呢?

　　考生在现场可能会抓耳挠腮，一时不知从何下手，这时我们可以借助戴云老师的10个分类“万金油”去一一验证。

　　首先，可以从适用范围最广的三个万能理由去分析可行不可行 ： Career preparation/increase knowledge/new experiences。

　　对时尚外表的关注可以帮助我们的Career preparation--事业成功吗?——成功 ，也就是十类中的“成功”。答案是可以!注重外表，关注时尚反映一个人的生活品位，个人气质会提升，进而引起人们的关注，这自然会为自己带来意想不到的工作机会，进而发展自己的事业。你可以举例，XX就是因为平常对时尚的关注，注重外表，气质好，给人印象深刻，而在面试中脱颖而出，成功地得到一份好的工作。

　　接下来从其他十个分类中，进行快速定位，寻找分论点。国家与文明，国家的范畴很大，可以展开论述。就其中的公益和慈善方面，可以举例。由于人们以时尚的关注，还能帮助他人，比如最近的“犀利哥事件”，从一个普通的流浪乞丐，因为其与众不同的穿着打扮，引起人们的关注，进而帮助他与家人团聚，唤起了人们对弱势群体的关注，进而促进了社会和谐。

　　十类“万金油”中的“健康和安全”也能用，可以说人们对时尚外表的关注，自然会崇尚健康的护肤产品、保养品，要注意保持身材，就会关注健身，要穿用对人们身体好的布料做的衣服，进而提高了人的身体健康。

　　此外“经济”也适合，人们关注外表和时尚，就会进行大量消费，可以用一组数据来证明，时尚业对经济的贡献。消费刺激市场，进而推动经济发展。“幸福和情感”也能用。现代生活的压力越来越大，人们希望可以放松身心，对时尚和外表的关注，可以让人们的身心得到愉悦，缓解工作中的压力。人们只是借助...

　　心图大纲：隐形模板3663起承转合

　　起--高等教育保障较好的月薪;然而成功发财则靠努力与运气。

　　承--学位带来就业机会与高薪优势。

　　转--事业有大成就者未必有文凭。

　　合--大学教育有助于个人收入;努力与好运才更是成功发财之道。

　　>Some people think that to have a successful life you have to have a university education, while others think that it is not that important. Discuss both views and give your own opinion based on personal experience and knowledge.

　　Example Essay: Education and Success

　　Don't confuse a university degree with a successful life, even though higher education can open doors to a range of economic options. It is one thing to make a good living, and yet it is quite another to make a good fortune. In various aspects of life, success is to be measured not so much by the education that one has as by the effort that one makes, plus of course lots of luck.

　　Undoubtedly, there are some types of success in professional life that are dependent on a university education. You need a college degree to have a career in a profession such as law, medicine, engineering, or teaching. In today's workplace, job opportunities and academic degrees are linked in such a way that it seems difficult, if not impossible, for an individual without ...

　　Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? The most important characteristic for a politician or a leader is good communication skill.

　　谢振礼老师小笔记：

　　--谈领导人物与高级政客的优势特质，绝对与口才息息相关，然而传播能力并非首要，作者的立场是口才应该是居第二，德行第一，因为唯有言行一致，群众才会产生信心。

　　话说托福与雅思两家对头于生意，却是同样的考英语的使用能力水平。我们培训写作单项，千万不可浪费时间在分雅思分托福的真题。昨日的雅思与托福写作试题相似。今日亦同。真正内行与真正外行的人都是一同承认不好分。其实，连题型都不需要分类，全部应该归于一类：冲突题型。

　　--英文作文很难，所以是一般考生的弱项，成绩普遍落在阅读，听力与口语之后。外行人说难，内行人也一样叫难。十天突破写作的神话，信之则有，不信则无。把写作说成容易的是补习班教练。困难的写作不可能变成容易，却又可能变得简单，所谓悟其禅。作文舞其圆，简单的起承转合，绕一圈。英文练其道，常习作，道在其中也。

　　--答题可以打高空，不可以跑题。回答此道试题何其难，是以谢振礼老师打高空，扯出信心为冲突的焦点。口才挂帅，多能服人，可是未必令人产生信心。好的领导言行一致，德行服人，群众肯定对他信心十足。伟大的领导，进一步能制造群众自己对自己有信心。结论是德行胜于口才。

　　Example Writing

　　Contrary to the common belief that good communication skill is vital to becoming a leader, actually leadership is practiced not so much in words as in actions that inspire confidence. It may be said that leaders are usually good talkers but the reverse is not necessarily true. A leader had better be recognized as a dealer in confidence, one who knows the way, goes the way and shows the way and, in addition, is good at the art of communication as the language of leadership.

　　A leader's right actio...

　　Is it better to enjoy your money when you earn it or is it better to save your money for some time in the future? Use specific reasons and examples to support your opinion.

　　【范文】

　　The Advantages of Saving Money

　　Everyone must work to live, but many people are fortunate enough to make more money than they immediately need. What should they do with this extra income? While it is tempting for people to spend it all on things they desire, I believe it is better to save at least a portion of the extra income for the future.

　　By saving money, people give themselves more security. They cannot predict the future; perhaps one day they will be jobless. At a time like this their savings can spare them a great deal of suffering and help to see them through the hard time. In addition, saving money allows people to build up a larger sum. They can then buy something more worthwhile than the small things they can but if they spend the money right away. For example, they may be able to buy a house with their savings. Finally, the practice of saving helps people develop the habit of setting goals and planning for their future. In this way they are bound to lead more meaningful and successful lives.

　　Most people would like to enjoy their money...
