澳際英語(yǔ)學(xué)校:托福獨(dú)立寫作考題中,每年對(duì)比類型試題幾乎要占據(jù)整個(gè)考試的半壁江山,對(duì)于此類型考題考生如何備考與應(yīng)試,下面就跟小編一起去看看吧!
一、對(duì)比類型考題種類繁多
對(duì)比類型考題在歷年托福獨(dú)立寫作考題中都有出現(xiàn),占比十分驚人,類型多樣,考察內(nèi)容涉及多方面,小編為大家整理了幾類對(duì)比類型試題供大家參考回顧:
(一):
Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? University students should be required to take basic science classes even if they are not part of the field of the study.
(二):
Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? The most important characteristic of a successful politician or leader is good communication skills.
(三):
Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Classmates and partner can communicate with each other face to face to finish the project better than by sending e-mail.
(四):
Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? The rules that the whole societies today expect to young people to follow and obey are too strict.
(五):
Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Movies and television have more negative effects than positive effects on the way young people behave.
二、對(duì)比類型考題具體有哪幾種分類:
按比較對(duì)象分類可分為以下三類:
1)A or B
這類對(duì)比題目中會(huì)有非常明顯的兩個(gè)對(duì)比對(duì)象,考生選擇觀點(diǎn)時(shí),只選其一。
例:Classmates and partner can communicate with each other face to face to finish the project better than by sending e-mail.
選擇觀點(diǎn)時(shí)要注意的是:
既可以選擇face to face communication 同時(shí)也可以選擇send e-mail.
2)A or (B)
此類型考題比較含蓄,比較對(duì)象在考題中往往只出現(xiàn)一個(gè),另一個(gè)則需要考生通過(guò)對(duì)題干的分析推斷得出。
People will spend less time on cooking food in twenty years.
此題直觀呈現(xiàn)“未來(lái)20年人們是否會(huì)更少花時(shí)間在做飯上”,實(shí)際在拿未來(lái)20年與現(xiàn)在進(jìn)行對(duì)比,之間的差異就是人們做飯時(shí)間差異的原因。
其它隱性對(duì)比考題還包括:
The professional athletes such as the football player and basket-ball player deserved high salaries to be paid?
此類型題目表面是在問(wèn)職業(yè)運(yùn)動(dòng)員高薪酬是否合理,實(shí)質(zhì)上是將職業(yè)運(yùn)動(dòng)員的career與其它普通的career進(jìn)行對(duì)比,職業(yè)運(yùn)動(dòng)員之所以擁有高薪酬的回報(bào),原因在于他們的career有異于其它c(diǎn)areer 的地方,職業(yè)生涯較短,極易受傷等,需要承受大多數(shù)比賽帶來(lái)的巨大壓力,參加嚴(yán)酷的訓(xùn)練等等。
3)A or B or C
對(duì)于比較對(duì)象含有有三者的,如何進(jìn)行選擇?選擇觀點(diǎn)時(shí)選其一。此類考題近幾年已經(jīng)多次出現(xiàn),考生應(yīng)引起足夠的重視。
例:
1.ring time of economy crisis, government should reduce budgets in: (1)education; (2) health care;(3) support for unemployed.
2.Which way do you think is the best for a student to make new friends: (1) joininga sports team;(2) participate in community activities;(3) traveling
對(duì)比時(shí)可三者一一對(duì)比,A與B對(duì)比,A與C對(duì)比,同時(shí)也可以轉(zhuǎn)換兩者對(duì)比,A與BC對(duì)比或B與AC對(duì)比。
三、對(duì)比類型試題易錯(cuò)及丟分點(diǎn)注意:
作答對(duì)比類型題目時(shí)考生經(jīng)常會(huì)犯這樣一個(gè)錯(cuò)誤:忽略對(duì)比。題目讓在A跟 B之間做選擇,假設(shè)選擇A,錯(cuò)誤的作答就是描述A的好處,完全忽視B的存在,這就是問(wèn)題的根源寫作過(guò)程中忽略對(duì)比,這樣的文章論證是不完整的。完整寫作論證應(yīng)提及A的好處同時(shí)提出B與A相比存在的劣勢(shì)與不足或是壞處。
通過(guò)下文可以明顯看出的寫作中出現(xiàn)得對(duì)比及給出對(duì)比的論證依據(jù),本文僅供參考:
In order to celebrate important events such as graduation or a special birthday, some of them prefer a large party, while others prefer a small party that only close friends and relatives are invited.
Delightfully, our everyday life is rife with various kinds of celebrations. When celebrating major events, I prefer to hold a small party with only close friends and relatives invited for the following reasons.
Firstly, a small party is less costly. A small party does not require vast place or abundant supply of food and drink, thus helping to save money. For instance, when celebrating my 18th birthday, I chose to hold a small party at home, inviting merely my close friends and relatives. Instead of purchasing a tremendous amount of fast food as well as snacks, I prepared the food and the drink by myself with the assistance of my mother, which significantly lowered my expense. While the party was not held on some grand location, everybody was having a good time, chatting at my cozy home and eating my hand-made deserts. By contrast, had I threw a big party, I would have needed to rent a more spacious place, buy more foods and even have needed to temporarily employ some people to help organize the party, which would be quite costly.
Secondly, it is more convenient to organize a small party. Hosting a large party entails a wealth of time and numerous people during the process of preparation before the party and cleaning up after the party. In other words, to organize a large party, one need to invest considerable time and even needs to resort to others’ assistance, which has the potential to disrupt his/her life, thus leading to inconvenience. On the other hand, because there are only a few individuals invited, a small party requires far less time in setting up the place and preparing for food and cleaning up trashes. Considerably less time-consuming and energy consuming, a small party causes far less inconvenience.
通過(guò)本文的介紹相信各位考生對(duì)于托福寫作中對(duì)比類型試題有了更深的認(rèn)識(shí)與知識(shí)的儲(chǔ)備,對(duì)于備考及應(yīng)試也有自己相應(yīng)的策略與技巧,對(duì)于對(duì)比類型試題作答時(shí)掌握對(duì)比論證的方法,避免錯(cuò)誤的論證才是取得成功的“勝利之鑰”。
