GMAT 考试|托福考试第一部分写作部分指南及需要注意的地方

来源:www.xuduwan.com 2024-07-18

托福考试的第一部分是写作TWE (Test of Written English),主要考察考生学术性写作的能力。它需要考生在30分钟的时间内完成一篇250-350字的短文,依据文章的结构、语法、词语等衡量作者是不是可以适应美国大学、研究生院的学习和考试规范。因此,TWE的成绩被作为申请国外院校、争取奖学金的一项要紧参数,大多数院校都需要提供该项成绩,一般学校的最低需要为4.0,但一些名校会需要成绩5分以上。在申请的过程中,TWE虽不是什么决定性原因,但它却是不可或缺的,而且会在非常大程度上影响申请人的入学资格。每年申请中都会有由于TWE不合需要被拒之门外的例子。
1、TWE考试介绍

TWE于1987年5月开始在中国境内的托福考试中出现。试题来自ETS给的题库,这类题目大都贴日前常生活,涉及到生活态度、科技、教育、投资、环保、社会关系等方面,不会涉及不同地域、文化、宗教信仰的差异和敏锐类话题,其目的是为了保证全球的考生面对考试试题都可以有话可说而不会由于客观条件上的差异对考试产生影响。TWE主如果考查考生的语言运用能力而非逻辑思维能力,因此,考生只须保证文章切题,理由符合基本逻辑,言之有物就好了,而不要花浪费时间间去追求标新立异的看法和独辟蹊径的内容,如此做总是花费太多时间却收不到太大成效。

TWE考查的文体有两种,一类是论述文,一类是图表说明文。后者出现的次数极少,而且近几年没再出现过。对于论述文,不外乎考查考生是不是可以了解表达我们的看法,并在论证的过程中给出合理充分的论据。TWE的命题方法主要有以下三种:

1. 给出对立的两种事物或者一个事物对立的两个方面,需要考生支持一方并给予说明,这种命题形式出现最多。譬如,

When people move to another country, some of them decide to follow the customs of the new country; other prefers to keep their own customs. Compare these two ways and make your own choice. (2002.5)

Some people think governments should spend as much money as possible expiring1 outer space( for example, traveling to the Moon and to other planets2)。 Other people disagree and think governments should spend this money for our basic needs on Earth. Which of these tow3 opinions do you agree with? Use specific reasons and details to explain your answer.( 2003.10)

Whether we should choose friends who are similar to us or those who are different from us? Use specific reasons to support your answer. (2002.10)

2. 只给出一个论点,需要考生支持或者反对,表达我们的建议。譬如:

Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? High schools should allow students to study the courses that students want to study. Use specific reasons and examples to support your opinion. (2003.8)

Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? A persons childhood years( the time from birth to twelve years of age) are the most important years of a persons life. Use specific reasons and examples to support your opinion. (2003.1)

Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? People are never satisfied with what they have; they always want something more or something different. Use specific reasons to support your answer. (2002.8)
