第一篇:Eylxzpa新托福寫作總結
-+
懶惰是很奇怪的東西,它使你以為那是安逸,是休息,是福氣;但實際上它所給你的是無聊,是倦怠,是消沉;它剝奪你對前途的希望,割斷你和別人之間的友情,使你心胸日漸狹窄,對人生也越來越懷疑。

小詞的價值
To borrow money from a friend has little to do with the maintenance of friendship because friendship depends less on money than on the love, honesty, and understanding between them.That is to say to borrow money will make the friendship stronger and closer if they love and understand each other.In this case, friendship will go on and on and on.However, without the love and mutual understanding friendship will be one day gone with the wind.Therefore it is clear that love and understanding is the very basis(foundation)of friendship which has been(figuratively)described as the light on the earth and the salt in the world.Money, on the contrary, is no.段落內部的銜接分析 下文選自大英百科
Social resources are similarly an indispensable prerequisite to a successful innovation.Many inventions have foundered because the social resources vital for their realization—the capital, materials, and skilled personnel—were not available.The notebooks of Leonardo da Vinci are full of ideas for helicopters, submarines, and airplanes, but few of these reached even the model stage because resources of one sort or another were lacking.The resource of capital involves the existence of surplus productivity and an organization capable of directing the available wealth into channels in which the inventor can use it.The resource of materials involves the availability of appropriate metallurgical, ceramic, plastic, or textile substances that can perform whatever functions a new invention requires of them.The resource of skilled personnel implies the presence of technicians capable of constructing new artifacts and devising novel processes.A society, in short, has to be well primed with suitable resources in order to sustain technological innovation

The technological dilemma
二分法思維訓練 on the one hand?on the other hand

因果關系 and so?
Whatever the responses to modern technology, there can be no doubt that it presents
contemporary society with a number of immediate problems that take the form of a traditional choice of evils, so that it is appropriate to regard them as constituting a “technological dilemma.” This is the dilemma between, on the one hand, the overdependence of life in the advanced industrial countries on technology, and, on the other hand, the threat that technology will destroy the quality of life in modern society and even endanger society itself.Technology thus confronts Western civilization with the need to make a decision, or rather, a series of decisions, about how to use the enormous power available to society constructively rather than destructively.The need to control the development of technology, and so to resolve the dilemma, by regulating its application to creative social objectives, makes it ever more necessary to define these objectives while the problems presented by rapid technological growth can still be solved.總分結構的訓練
These problems, and the social objectives related to them, may be considered under three broad headings.First is the problem of controlling the application of nuclear technology.Second is the population problem, which is twofold: it seems necessary to find ways of controlling the dramatic rise in the number of human beings and, at the same time, to provide food and care for the people already living on the Earth.Third, there is the ecological problem, whereby the products and wastes of technical processes have polluted the environment and disturbed the balance of natural forces of regeneration.When these basic problems have been reviewed it will be possible, finally, to consider the effect of technology on life in town and countryside, and to determine the sort of judgments about technology and society to which a study of the history of technology leads.Nuclear technology
The solution to the first problem, that of controlling nuclear technology, is primarily political.At its root is the anarchy of national self-government, for as long as the world remains divided into a multiplicity of nation-states, or even into two power blocs, each committed to the defense of its own sovereign power to do what it chooses, nuclear weapons merely replace the older weapons by which such nation-states have maintained their independence in the past.The availability of a nuclear armoury has emphasized the weaknesses of a world political system based upon sovereign nation-states.Here, as elsewhere, technology is a tool that can be used creatively or destructively.But the manner of its use depends entirely on human decisions, and in this matter of nuclear self-control the decisions are those of governments.There are other aspects of the problem of nuclear technology, such as the disposal of radioactive waste and the quest to harness the energy released by fusion, but although these are important issues in their own right, they are subordinate to the problem of the use of nuclear weapons in warfare.Population explosion
Assuming that the use of nuclear weapons can be averted, world civilization will have to come to grips with the population problem in the next few decades if life is to be tolerable on planet Earth in the 21st century.The problem can be tackled in two ways, both drawing on the resources of modern technology.In the first place, efforts may be made to limit the rate of population increase.Medical technology, which, through new drugs and other techniques, has provided a powerful impulse to the increase of population, also offers means of controlling this increase
through contraceptive devices and through painless sterilization procedures.Again, technology is a tool that is neutral in respect to moral issues about its own use, but it would be futile to deny that artificial population control is inhibited by powerful moral constraints and taboos.Some reconciliation of these conflicts is essential, however, if stability in world population is to be satisfactorily achieved.Perhaps the experience of China, already responsible for one-quarter of the world's population, is instructive here: in an attempt to prevent the population growth from exceeding the ability of the country to sustain the existing standards of living, the government imposed a “one-child family” campaign in the 1970s, which is maintained by draconian social controls.In the second place, even the most optimistic program of population control can hope to achieve only a slight reduction in the rate of increase by the end of the 20th century, so that an alternative approach must be made simultaneously in the shape of an effort to increase the world's production of food.Technology has much to contribute at this point, both in raising the
productivity of existing sources of food supply by improved techniques of agriculture and better types of grain and animal stock, and in creating new sources of food by making the deserts fertile and by systematically farming the riches of the oceans.There is enough work here to keep engineers and food technologists busy for many generations.Ecological balance
The third major problem area of modern technological society is that of preserving a healthy environmental balance.Though man has been damaging his environment for centuries by overcutting trees and farming too intensively, and though some protective measures, such as the establishment of national forests and wildlife sanctuaries, were taken decades ago, great increases in
population and in the intensity of industrialization are promoting a worldwide ecological crisis.This includes the dangers involved in destruction of the equatorial rain forests, the careless exploitation of minerals by open-mining techniques, and the pollution of the oceans by radioactive waste and of the atmosphere by combustion products.These include oxides of sulfur and nitrogen, which produce acid rain, and carbon dioxide, which may affect the world's climate through the so-called greenhouse effect.It was the danger of indiscriminate use of pesticides such as DDT after World War II that first alerted opinion in advanced Western countries to the delicate nature of the world's ecological system, presented in a trenchant polemic by the U.S.science writer Rachel Carson in her book Silent Spring(1962);this was followed by a spate of warnings about other possibilities of ecological disaster.The great public concern about pollution in the advanced nations is both overdue and welcome.Once more, however, it needs to be said that the fault for this waste-making abuse of technology lies with man himself rather than with the tools he uses.For all his intelligence, man in communities behaves with a lack of respect for his environment that is both short-sighted and potentially suicidal.Technological society
Much of the 19th-century optimism about the progress of technology has dispersed, and an increasing awareness of the technological dilemma confronting the world makes it possible to offer a realistic assessment of the role of technology in shaping society at the end of the 20th century.Interactions between society and technology
In the first place, it can be clearly recognized that the relationship between technology and society is complex.Any technological stimulus can trigger a variety of social responses, depending on such unpredictable variables as differences between human personalities;similarly,no specific social situation can be relied upon to produce a determinable technological response.Any “theory of invention,” therefore, must remain extremely tentative, and any notion of a “philosophy” of the history of technology must allow for a wide range of possible interpretations.A major lesson of the history of technology, indeed, is that it has no precise predictive value.It is frequently possible to see in retrospect when one particular artifact or process had reached obsolescence while another promised to be a highly successful innovation, but at the time such historical hindsight is not available and the course of events is indeterminable.In short, the complexity of human society is never capable of resolution into a simple identification of causes and effects driving historical development in one direction rather than another, and any attempt to identify technology as an agent of such a process is unacceptable.
第二篇:托福寫作
Agree or disagree A university should focus more on its facilities, computers or laboratory, rather than on hiring famous teachers
Nowadays, highly education has been attached more important than before.A argue that school facilities should pay more attention than professor lecture.From my perspective, although such hardware like computer centers and science lab provide some benefits to university students, university depends on quality of stuff.Admittedly, a school equipped with great facilities is more appealing the applicants.The reason is that it can make study easier.A bright library offers such a quiet condition for knowledge absorption;a computer center provides a self-govern ways to study;a science lab make student get more practice about miracles.However, this factors become less considerate when it comes to the quality of the professors.For one thing, not only do famous teachers can impart the knowledge, but instill the angle that to solve the problem.To pass on knowledge, a human is no better than a machine or a high-tech tool.The difference lies in the
special ways to get the solutions and the potential inspiration by the former.Take my favorite teacher for example, she often shows us some different way to solve the difficulties.And then she tells us the angle to work out the problem.As for me, it was not until her explanation, that I know about the easier way to work the problem.That is something that high-tech can barely achieve.For another, universities with qualified teachers tend to have higher graduate employment.It is not hard to imagine that a teacher with connections can bring more opportunity to get internship.As an old saying goes, knowledge starts with practice.It is still true now.Students who swamped in labs, would never face the brutal fact that you need a window for people to see what you’ve got.In this way, a well-connect professor can open that for you, instead of lifeless labs.In conclusion, though facilities could promote learning, but it fail to generate more practical merits to students.Recruit more qualified teacher should be paid more attention and stress.

5句句子翻譯練習答案:
Many friends are various,some have deep pocket,some come from humble background,Some are similar to me,earning a living as a teacher,reading and writing,contented with such a simple life.The solid foundation of our friendship can be attributed to like-mindedness,pleasant communication,mutual assistance or the willing to share hardships.Possessing the same amount of wealth is never the criteria of choosing friends for me and many of my friends.Two children can become good friends because they are mutually attracted by the personal strength finding in the partner,even though they have different family and economic background.Materialistic pleasure is usually short-lived,thing of great value can never be bought or measured by money,such as true love or sincere friendship.The willingness to go through thick and thin is what keeps friendship going permanently.適用主題:It is impossible to be completely honest with your friend all the time.一個人不可能永遠對于朋友誠實(2011年12月17日托福考題)

第五篇:托福寫作的技巧總結
官方網站:
一、綜合寫作
1.把握聽力和閱讀的關系 托福寫作的技巧總結
完全聽不懂聽力,怎么辦?首先,托福得聽力者得天下,必須正視自己的聽力水平,平常魔鬼式訓練,提高實力,以免遭人鄙視。其次,可以稍稍投機一下。聽力一般會去反駁閱讀,盡管聽力細節我們無能為力,但聽力的主題句我們是可以寫出來的。比如,閱讀認為四天工作制可以減少失業率:The reading passage states that the four-day workweek would reduce unemployment rates那么針對聽力,我們可以寫:However, the listening argues that the four-day workweek would not reduce unemployment rates.直接加個not就可以了。總比聽不懂完全不寫強。
2.字數
嚴格講字數控制在150-225之間,體現個人總結能力。不是The longer, the better.3.語法
簡單句為主,切忌糾結同義詞替換,適當保留,保證句子正確率。
二、獨立寫作
1.字數
盡量多寫,至少要達到300字。一般來說,400字以上得GOOD的可能性較大。當然,如果細節已經寫全,不必一味重復湊字數。曾有考生寫600字,仍得fair。質量總是大于數量的。
2.語法
把每句話寫對,哪怕只寫簡單句,也會得到一個意外的理想分數。畢竟,語法是內容傳輸的重要工具。沒有語法概念,句子不成句子,絕對是恐怖主義。
3.細節
越細越好,切勿假大空、籠統論述。要做到這一點,最簡單的方式就是舉例子。可以舉自己或身邊家人、朋友、同學的例子,加上時間地點,字數很容易就上去了。不一定要舉大牛的事例。
