第一章
教育类话题是托福独立写作中最常考的话题,话题涉及选课、课堂组织形式、师生关系、课外活动等方面,考生多少有些了解,结合自己平时所见所闻和个人经历都能写出一些内容;考题类型比较常规,通常都是二选一或者三选一,推荐的写法是选定一个内容,分析其合理性或者益处即可。
通常来说,这些题目乍一看都很容易理解,写出一篇 500 词左右的文章似乎不难,但是当题目问得非常具体,比如“大学生应不应该上公共演讲课?”,同学们可能就无话可说了,语言质量也不尽如人意。因此,我们把同类话题都放在一起,帮助同学们整理不同话题中常用到的论点及语料。这些内容在考题之间有一些共通之处时,稍加调整就可以拿来用。
下列选题同属教育类范畴,极具代表性,所用到的理由和例子都是积累的上好素材。遇到同类型题目时构思起来会轻松很多。
1. (20180909) Students should be encouraged to study fields like science, technology, engineering, math (STEM) rather than what they have interest in.
? 头脑风暴?
这道题问的是学生们应该选择学习科学技术类的学科,还是选择自己更感兴趣的领域。在头脑风暴时可以分别思考这两方面的优缺点,选择你认为理由比较充分的观点来写。如果选择学习科学技术类的学科,这一类的学科实用性可能会更强,相关工作报酬丰厚,对未来的职业发展有所帮助;但是这类学科可能会难度比较大,在就业时竞争激烈。如果选择自己喜欢的学科,则更能激发自己的学习兴趣,使自己在擅长的领域有更好的发展。但是未来职业选择可能有限。
论点: 应当选择自己更喜欢的领域学习。
理由一: 选择自己更感兴趣的领域能够激励学生追求更高的目标,在学习中有更好的
表现。
理由二: 选择自己感兴趣的领域可以使学生在专业领域上更擅长,从而使他们在求职
时有更大的优势。
理由三: 虽然 STEM 类学科实用性强,但是它们不一定能成为学生学习的动力。
Education is one of the keywords of this age since it has an
overall impact on people’s quality of life, both intellectually and
financially. However, people’s views differ greatly as to which should
be the priority of academic pursuit, to study the STEM subjects or to
focus on subjects that interest them. As I see it, choosing to specialize
in one’s favorite courses is more commendable.
To begin with, opting for the courses that greatly interest the
students will drive them to achieve higher goals. When students’
motivation is stimulated by the subject exerting a special fascination
on them, they are likely to spend more time on it and accomplish
better academic performance. According to a recent study conducted
by the Society of Developmental Psychology, primary-school students
would spend approximately three more hours each week on subjects
they are interested in than on other subjects, and score about 10%
higher correspondingly. This trend is also valid when it comes to highschool students
