想必各位備考或是參加過托??荚嚨耐瑢W都知道托福寫作中有種類型是【絕】對詞的題目,那遇到這類題目我們應該如何應對和完成呢,今天讓老師幫助大家來攻克此類題目。
首先,我們要學會如何識別這類的題目,那么【絕】對詞類型的題目就必須有體現(xiàn)【絕】對概念的一些表達,比如下面這些題目我們可以觀察一下:
①Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? The best way to reduce air pollution is for the government to raise the cost of fuel (petrol).
② Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? The most effective way to improve the teaching quality is increasing teachers’ income
③Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? All university students should be required to take basic science courses even if it is not the field of their study.
④Do you agree or disagree: It is possible to always be honest with your friends?
通過讀題,我們可以很容易發(fā)現(xiàn)其實這些紅色標記的詞就是【絕】對詞類型的標志詞了。
表頻率always/ never/ hardly
表示數(shù)量all/every/each/ any/ no/only
表示程度the best/ the most 各種【最】高級/must
在分析此類題目時,同學們可以同意題目中的觀點,給出支持的理由,也可以選擇反對,否定【絕】對詞的合理性。我們用一道題目具體的題目來給大家分析一下哈:
Do you agree or disagree with this statement? Only movies that can teach us something about real life are worth watching.
中文意思為:只有使我們在真實生活中學到東西的電影才值得看。
如果同學們選擇支持的立場的話,就等同于認為只有劇情片比如《辛德勒的名單》或是《我不是藥神》這類的劇情片是值得看的,其實同時也需要證明其他類型的電影是不值得觀眾們花時間去觀看的,但是在僅有的30分鐘的考試時間,考生其實是很難把所有其他類型的電影逐一否定的,因為如下面所示電影的類型是如此的多樣。因此,如果決定選擇同意,我們只需論證這種表現(xiàn)現(xiàn)實題材的劇情片的2-3個好處即可
比如teach youngsters how to overcome adversities by incessant effort 或是hard-won peace, tranquility and stability should be cherished
但是相比支持的立場,絕大多數(shù)的【絕】對詞題目更適合的結(jié)構(gòu)是寫反對的立場是更加簡單和容易的,因為我們只需要給出一些反例來證明其實有很多類型的電影都是同樣值得看的,比如comedy,thriller,animation等等就行,但是需要強調(diào)的一點是同學們不能直接在全篇中完全不提及movies that can teach us something about real life,這樣其實會被考官判定是topic words回應不全面,然后被判定是偏題,導致低分,那么解決這個問題的關(guān)鍵就是需要一個比較合理的段落結(jié)構(gòu)了,大家可以參考如下的思路
P1- 開頭段:話題引入+改寫題目+作者觀點
With remarkable progress of people’s living standard, watching movies has become an indispensable part of people’s lives. Quite a few people believe only movies reflecting reality are worth watching. However, I regard this assertion as overstated, which will be explained in the following paragraphs
P2- 讓步段:承認對方的好處+ 提出反駁的原因
承認現(xiàn)實電影的好處+ 只看一種電影會讓人感到無聊or 現(xiàn)實電影比較壓抑有時候?qū)τ谟^眾,所以其他電影也是同樣值得看
Admittedly, audiences really benefit a lot from movies that can teach us something about real life. For instance, the movie “Forrest Gump” convey such a message to us: if only there is perseverance there will be a miracle. Nevertheless, some of realistic movies reveal some dark sides of the reality society, like inequalities in wealth or school bullying, which may make audiences feel depressed after viewing. In fact, other types of movies can provide people with different experiences.
P3- 主體段1 (主題句+論證解釋+細節(jié)擴展)
喜劇片通過夸張的表語和搞笑的臺詞讓觀眾們大笑來放松壓力
Comedies are worth watching, for they give us a real good way to relax ourselves.It is because the only goal that the comedies try to achieve is to make people laugh and laughing is in fact proven by science to be one of best medicines to alleviate pressure, pain or depression. I still can remember when I was preparing for the college entrance examination--a make-or-break exam that even determines one’s future--the most enjoyable thing was to watch a Jim Carrey movie after a whole day’s hard work. Through those hilarious plots and exaggerating acting of Jim Carrey, my intense minds suddenly got relaxed.
P4- 主體段2 (主題句+論證解釋+細節(jié)擴展)
恐怖片讓人能在安全的環(huán)境下體驗恐懼的刺激。
Another kind of movies, scary movie, is also worth watching because it allows people to experience the excitement of horror under a safe circumstance.In most cases, people are pursuing happiness while avoiding risks,but human being’s nature of curiosity sometimes makes us want to experience those fearful feelings that we hate to have in real life. Though this kind of mind maybe paradoxical, but it does exist sometimes. For example, almost every scary-movie lover enjoys the moment when they breathed a sigh of relief at the end of the movie.Vicariously sharing the experience of others can be a kind of happiness.
P5- 結(jié)尾段(重申觀點,歸納理由):
In conclusion, it is smooth to infer that only watching movie that can teach us something about real life is rather absurd. It is because comedy and scary movies are also important to our lives by making audiences release pressure and experiencing the excitement of horror.
通過閱讀上面的范文大家基本可以認識到【絕】對詞類型的題目反駁立場的整體結(jié)構(gòu),就是在讓步段先承認絕題目觀點的合理性,但是之后需要通過指出存在的問題或是不合理性來反駁其【絕】對性,之后再寫兩個主體段給出反例即可。
大家可以用下面的題目自己試試練習一下這種結(jié)構(gòu)的寫法哈

The best way to reduce air pollution is for the government to raise the cost of fuel (petrol).

The most important investment of a company is to improve the skills of its employees.
