在托福写作备考中,想要写出一篇优秀的文章,必然就要学会知道和学会使用一些当前最为热门的词汇。今天小编给大家带来托福写作热门词汇怎样使用呢,希望能够帮助到大家,下面小编就和大家分享,来欣赏一下吧。

托福写作热门词汇怎样使用呢?

important significant magnificent

托福写作词汇具体应用到句子中:

1. WTO is planning an important conference about commercial regulations。

2. It is a significant contribution to the society。

3. We have visited the magnificent Forbidden city。

这几个词大家都很熟悉,都有“重要,华丽”的意思。可是作为同级比较的形容词,它们之间的关系则是递进式的,其强调的重要或者华丽的程度也在逐渐提 升。如果你按照这样的顺序来进行记忆,不但可以记牢这几个单词,而且可以得到如何应用的真谛。所以所谓的高级词汇的应用,要从基础开始,打好基础之后再进行积累,切忌操之过急。再来看看下边这个例子:

Humility humiliate humiliated humiliating

这几个词汇都是由humility衍生出来的,但是意思大不相同,humility是我们的传统美德,叫做“谦卑”,和pride正好是反义词;而 humiliate却是有着“使人蒙尘”的意思,humiliate和humiliating 一般口语使用偏多,指的是“感觉很丢脸,没有面子”。例如:I feel humiliated 或者 it is humiliating. 有时候,与其花费大量时间去记忆新单词和词组,都不如在已经掌握的单词中进行联想性的扩展来的有效和实惠。其实道理很简单,说一个东西好,很好,到非常好,相当好,甚至好到不能再好,这是一个纵向比较的记忆方法,按照级别的不同进行选择性的记忆和使用。

我们再看看下边这个例子:

So amazing are these crewmembers that they have successfully accomplished space walk,what a briliant mission!

这句话是某英文网站对神舟七号的评价,这个属于句子的倒装,但是强调的内容是amazing。这个词意思很广泛,而且同义词也有很多,例如 incredible, wonderful,,甚至unbelievable,这里用amazing是表示难以置信的好,类似incredible,是对太空行走这次任务完成的积极评价,这就是高级词汇的同等记忆了,这几个词都有“美妙,奇妙,难以置信”之类的意思,记忆的方法属于横向比较,也就是说,都是表示好到不能再好之类 的意思,但是好的方向不同,所以单词的选择会有区别。

托福写作中,如果说单词是句子的灵魂,那句子就是文章的基石。在注重文章的完整性和一致性的同时,也需要文章有精彩的内容。希望大家在备考托福写作时,重视托福词汇的的使用,学会如何选择恰当的托福词汇,准确表达所要表达的意思。预祝大家能够在托福写作中取得理想的成绩。

托福写作中如何灵活使用比喻句,让自己的文章更出彩

托福写作中灵活使用比喻句,可以让自己的文章更出彩。小编给你举个具体的例子吧。

前段时间有新闻推送说Uber的CEO大概要辞职了。因为之前左膀右臂纷纷离职,所以孤注一掷的首席执行官也要撑不下去了。于是,马上看到有段子手说

“So now Uber does not have a CTO, COO, CFO, and CEO on the edge of out, this is the closest Uber ever is to a self driving company.

Uber是如图嘀嘀打车的出行便利平台,2014年进入中国之后,仅仅3年就因为无法本土化而推出中国大陆,此后Uber在其他市场的行情也不乐观,即使在原产地美国,市场占有率也屈居于另外一个打车软件Lyft之后。Uber的总裁是卡兰尼克也是常青藤校的辍学生,在市场行情不好的情况下,仍然执意开辟无人驾驶领域。目前,Uber已经储备了无人驾驶(self-driving)的汽车投入匹兹堡市场进行试点。时隔不久,就传出了公司首脑分崩离析的消息。

这个小段子中“Self-driving”一词一语双关起到了讽刺的有趣效果。一方面,Uber提供驾车服务,也正在推行无人驾驶的服务,巧合地描述了公司。另一方面,现在Uber群龙无首,没有了COO,CFO,CTO甚至CEO来做司机,整个公司变成了一个无人驾驶的公司。读到的人有一种“笑着哭”的赶脚,感叹这家公司未来的悲惨境遇。语言委婉地说人家是自己会开车的公司,貌似要说它前景好,而实际的含义却出人意料。

修辞是语言的修饰,是表达的艺术,触动人的情感,是全世界共同的特征。人类都喜欢比较事物的相似和不同之处,在丰富的想象里中创造自己的世界。英语学习中,也有许多基于西方文化产生的修辞。双关需要一定的巧合才能创造妙语,但是比喻却随处可见。

钱钟书先生说:“比喻是文学语言的根本”。

汉语中说“热锅上的蚂蚁”

英语中说“like a cat on hot bricks”

汉语中说“蠢得像猪”

英语中说“as stupid as a goose”

汉语中说“一贫如洗”

英语中说“as poor as a church mouse”

汉语中《诗经》将琼瑶比做“爱情”

英语中卡夫卡将人比喻成“虫”

每个文化有自己的相似点,但是只要我们找到两个事物之间的相似点就可以自己构造字字珠玑的比喻句哦。

丨话不多说,模板现行

描述同类事物的比较

我们可以说A to B is what Cis to D

中文解释为A之于B好比C之于D

如果我们要说“对孩子恰当的表扬好比太阳之于花一样”

可以怎么说呢?

Appropriate praise to a child is what the sun is to a flower.

以上比较的点是说两者都很重要。

恰当的表扬对于孩子很重要

太阳对于花也很重要

其实重要性在托福写作中是非常常用的内容。

所以,我们再来练习一个说两者重要性相似的句子吧

“教育之于现代社会好比水对于鱼一样重要”

Education to modern society is what water is to fish.

学会了吗?

重要性的句子在托福写作中一定会用到呢。

拿上周六的托福真题“在家吃饭还是出去吃?”举个例子。

我们可以说 Having meals at home ensures our safety.

Healthy food to us is what the sun is to a flower.

健康食物对于我们来说就像太阳之于花一样重要

托福写作范文:所有知识都能从书本中获得

It has been said, “Not everything that is learned is contained in books.” Compare and contrast knowledge gained from experience with knowledge gained from books. In your opinion, which source is more important? Why?

We all crave knowledge, especially in this Age of Information, but what is the best source of knowledge? Are we to believe Albert Camus, who stated “The place we are to get knowledge is in books”? Or are we better served by following Albert Einstein’s counsel that “The only source of knowledge is experience”? (quotations 引入)Although books have their place in one’s learning, there is no substitute for experience; indeed, it is experience that is ultimately the most important source of knowledge.(thesis) 定从,强调结构

First, let us consider the knowledge needed to undertake a profession – for example, that of a physician.(缩小范围,举出某一个职业) Knowledge gained from books provides the foundation of a doctor’s training:study in a medical school begins with a near-overload of reading on anatomy, physiology and maladies both rare and common. However, during this time the medical student is also learning through experience, beginning with dissecting cadavers from almost the first day of medical school. Then, the aspiring physician must complete four years of residency, consisting of actual supervised experience at a hospital in which he or she now must put into practice all of the knowledge he or she has acquired through books. It is only during the residency that one gains firsthand knowledge of dealing with patients, prescribing medications, and the joy and sadness of saving and losing patients; in other words, it is through experience that these residents finally learn what it means to be a doctor.

这一段没有topic sentence

What about knowledge other than professional expertise – for example, knowledge about another culture? In this realm as well, both books and real-life experience enrich and edify us. For example, Paris is perhaps the most talked-about and written-about city in the world. We could read Hemingway’s A Moveable Feast, in which he describes the excitement and intellectual spirit—as well as the restaurants and plentiful red wine—of Paris in the 1920’s. Or, we could travel to Paris and eat at bistros, walk across the Pont Neuf and look at the river Seine, visit the Louvre museum, and have adventures of our own. Clearly, most people would have attained more lasting and vivid knowledge by visiting Paris on their own rather than reading about it secondhand.

In summary,experience, rather than books, is more central to our quest for learning, especially with regard to professional expertise. With regard to learning about another culture, experience is also irreplaceable. Yet not everyone in the world will have the health or financial resources to carry out a trip to Paris. But many people have access to a local library where they can borrow A Moveable Feastand, at no cost, read Hemingway’s vibrant descriptions of Paris. We cannot forget the complementary and unique knowledge afforded by books, but experience is the most precious source of knowledge.
