  实用方法介绍

  丨1.常用论点/理由

  针对独立写作的常见话题,大致可归成三类:个人类(关于学习、工作、休闲、做人的选择);古今类(题目中有明显的now… past … 让考生判断现在和过去在某一方面的比较);决策类(题目中通常有government这个词出现,讨论政府的投资或者政策,有些题目虽然没有government这个词出现,但如果涉及的是有社会影响力的话题,也可以划为政府类,比如 A/D Professional athletes such as the football playerand basketball player deserve high salaries that they are paid.)

  1)个人类常用理由

  学知识、练技能、拓展视野……..

  工作机会、赚钱…….

  交朋友、陪伴家人……. (合作、沟通) …….

  品质(自信,独立,坚持,乐观 )   / 兴趣爱好

  身体健康、放松心情…….

  省时间、省钱、省精力………..

  2)古今类常用理由

  现代社会的优点:

  教育: 先进全面鼓励个性

  工作:种类丰富机会多

  医疗:治愈缓解更多疾病

  技术:网络电子产品汽车

  公共设施:便利的交通娱乐购物餐饮

  法律制度:保障个人权利

  媒体:揭露真相传播信息

  人与人:互动频繁、方便

  经济进步:更充裕的钱和无助

  世界和平:更少的战争伤亡

  现代社会的缺点:

  环境问题(污染,能源消耗)

  生活压力(学习,工作)

  欺骗敲诈

  3)决策类常用思路

  注:除了使用个人类常用理由,针对决策类这种和政府相关有社会影响力的题目,建议多角度讨论,一下是常见的讨论角度:

  1.大众 individuals

  对我们有什么用?(放松健康省钱知识关系等等)

  是不是我们每个人都需要的?(大多数/ 小众)

  2. 相关群体relativegroups

  题目中谈论到的比如artists,scientists, athletes 等等

  3. 企业companies

  企业有钱,可以代替政府去投资有利可图的领域

  4. 社会 Society

  Economy(tourism), culture, safety, improvement …

  丨2.对比段

  通常来说,托福独立写作的论证写3段,上文介绍了最基本的常用理由,但有时候,因为各种原因只想出2个理由的时候,可以写一段对比段,即把对比论证写一段。

  具体案例参考第三部分的机经详解

  丨3.让步段

  除了对比段之外,让步段也可以解决只有2个理由缺少第三个段落的问题。

  具体案例参考第三部分的机经详解

  丨4.拆分法/分情况讨论

  针对一些比较抽象的独立写作话题,我们可以分情况讨论,或者对于关键词进行定义和拆分,在更加具体的情况下方便论证。

  具体案例参考第三部分的机经详解

  丨5.检验论点

  没有标准答案,这是独立解题最自由的地方。但这并不意味着什么样的理由都可以作为论点并且展开段落的。课堂上,一些学生可以马上相处三个理由,但仔细探究,可能只有一个理由是可以作为论点的。

  这里说一下三个检验标准:1.支持观点  2. 论点相互不重叠  3. 易于展开

  丨6.灵活调整

  根据ETS的出题,我们知道,题目是千变万化的,为了帮助学生更好的应对,老师们会总结出一些实用方法,对学生来说,比死记硬别、生搬硬套更重要的是,在题目的练习中,去运用这些方法,并且灵活的调整。

  如果觉得一些常用理由不适合支持某一道题,那么就放弃这个理由;

  如果只想出两个理由,那么可以加一个让步段或者对比段;

  如果一道题直接用常用理由去支持很难,可以试着拆分法;

  如果完全同意/不同意很难,可以试着两边倒;

  如果题目中有绝对词,可以部分同意/不同意。

  ... ...
