新托福寫作策略之“語言制勝”

在托�？荚囍校�語言能力是考查的重點，這也是考生很難在短時間內(nèi)大幅度提高的部分。若想快速提高語言能力，須從詞匯與句法著手準備。

1.巧妙用詞

1)一詞多義

建議考生在備考過程中重視一詞多義，即靈活應用不同詞匯表達同一種意思，這也是評分標準強調(diào)的重點之一。例如，在表達“大”這個概念時，沒必要機械地重復使用“big”這一個詞，可靈活使用其同義詞：large, tremendous, gigantic, grand 等等。

2)重視連詞

連詞能夠使文章邏輯順暢，語言連貫，建議考生牢記各種連詞如in spite of, in addition, moreover, even though, nevertheless 等。此外，還須注意詞語表達的準確性，因為托福寫作注重考查用語言準確傳達思想，若頻繁使用“高深莫測”的超難詞匯，恐怕會“弄巧成拙”。

2.句法多樣

應用多種“黃金句型”，避免重復單一。建議考生平時多做造句練習，以便更熟練地掌握典型句式。“黃金句型”包括：

1)強調(diào)句

It is in the process of such an endeavor that people realize the power of unity.

It is the associated responsibility that builds up a solid infrastructure of a group.

2.)倒裝句

Not only will it help one keep a good balance between work and rest, but it can also further benefit him both spiritually and physically.

Good medicine tastes bitter but cures diseases and saves life, so does honest advice.

3)并列結(jié)構(gòu)

Tremendous investments are being made to construct more roads, build more overpasses and develop new bus and subway lines.

Taking up a favorite subject improves performance during their course of study and brings about more satisfactory results.

4)修辭問句

How could a person show pure friendliness to others while wearing a smiling mask?

Shouldn’t the students finish their homework on time?

5)插入語

Other people, however, would rather hold smaller ones within the family.
