怎样提高托福考试写作能力

  对于很多正在备考托福的同学们,托福的写作能力现在怎么样呢?下面就和出国留学网的小编来看看怎样提高托福考试写作能力?来一起了解一下吧。

  技能提升

  一 要有一定的英语语法基础

  新托福写作对于语法要求不高,在懂得主谓宾正常的构句规则的基础上,加上对各种从句以及几个特殊句式(强调句、倒装句)的运用,就可以应付托福写作了。

  二 文章结构

  托福写作通常是鱼骨头(Fish Bone)式写作。这样的结构就是最为普遍的议论文结构,开头段+中间三段+结尾段。千万不要小看这样的结构,以为这样的结构过于简单,过于八股。其实,新托福写作考查的也就是考生是否会熟练运用这样的结构去表达自己对一个观点的看法。想了解托福写作题目的相关信息,请关注智课!

  三 语言上要有多样性

  新托福考试说到底,还是在考查学生的语言能力。文章结构就是一个人的骨架,那么剩下来的工作就是需要往这具空空的骨架中添加进生动的血肉,这就是我们的语言了。新托福写作考试对于考生的语言水平最基本的要求是没有太多的语法错误,也就是考生所犯的语法错误不会影响到文章的理解。在这个基础上,新托福考试还要求学生会熟练运用一些句式、词汇,使文章看起来很native。

  四 意中西方文化的差异对于新托福写作的影响

  西方人的思路是演绎式的(deduction),他们会先把自己最主要的观点亮出来,然后再针对自己的观点做进一步的阐释;而中国人的思路是归纳式的(induction),中国人擅于先大段的说理论证,分析各种可能的情况,然后最后加上一个总结,也就是自己的观点。在新托福写作中我们一定要使用演绎式的写作方式,切忌使用归纳式的方式。原因在于:使用演绎式的写作方式,一开始就亮出观点,使读者很清晰地明白作者的观点,于是读者就会更好地理解下面的相关论证,使得读者更容易觉得文章的思路清晰,逻辑严密;而使用归纳式的写作方式,读者在阅读之前的论证的时候,自己心里也会产生一个自己的观点,也就是说读者自己就会先于作者得出一个观点,要是当最后作者的观点与读者的观点相异时,就会很容易的使读者认为作者的思路不清晰,逻辑不严密。这就是中国式思路归纳式的缺点。

  独特开头

  一 用副词开头

  (1) 副词修饰全句

  修饰全句常用的副词有:

  obviously / undoubtedly

  apparently / fortunately

  clearly / unfortunately

  incredibly / luckily

  unluckily / surprisingly

  这些副词大多数表示说话人对全句的看法,在意思上相等与 “It is ... 形容词that ...” 。
