所謂萬(wàn)事開(kāi)頭難,托福獨(dú)立寫(xiě)作中,雖然開(kāi)頭段并不是寫(xiě)作中考察的重點(diǎn),但是往往在考試中成為學(xué)生頭疼的一個(gè)問(wèn)題。在有限的時(shí)間里,學(xué)生會(huì)往往因?yàn)椴恢廊绾伍_(kāi)頭而浪費(fèi)掉很多時(shí)間,所以如果真的有所謂的萬(wàn)能模板,還是會(huì)在心理上給學(xué)生一個(gè)很大的安慰。我們從網(wǎng)上找到了一個(gè)萬(wàn)能模板,就來(lái)隨便找一個(gè)話題試驗(yàn)一下。
?
大家可以先看一下這個(gè)網(wǎng)上給出的萬(wàn)能模板
In?recent?years,?the issue of…./ to…/ 同位語(yǔ)從句 has become a relatively new one in newspapers and on TV, with many people taking the attitude that…………., while others believe that………….?I?find myself in agreement with the former/ latter view.
?
那么既然是萬(wàn)能模板,隨便一個(gè)話題應(yīng)該都可以適用,我們看一下這個(gè)話題。
Do you agree or disagree with the following statement??Do you prefer to spend money on traveling or to save it for future use?
下面我們就來(lái)套用一下這個(gè)模板,驗(yàn)證一下萬(wàn)能模板是否真的萬(wàn)能。
?
In recent years, the issue of how to spend money has become a relatively new one in newspaper and on TV(become a topic?which?is being fiercely debated), with many penople taking the attitude that they should make full use of money to go travelling, while others believe that money should be saved for future use.?I?find myself in agreement with the former view.
?
?
大家來(lái)看一下,這樣的開(kāi)頭段寫(xiě)得好不好,在這個(gè)開(kāi)頭段中,它說(shuō)如何使用錢這個(gè)話題成為一個(gè)比較新的話題(正在被激烈的討論),
?
?
首先,我們看一下,這句話說(shuō)的是否合適,是否符合邏輯,或者說(shuō)這句話是否有足夠的談資成為一個(gè)被激烈討論的話題。
?
顯然,如果這個(gè)話題用這個(gè)模板來(lái)套用的話,總有一種“為賦新詞強(qiáng)說(shuō)愁”的感覺(jué),所以其實(shí)我們可以看見(jiàn),并不是所有的話題都適合用模板來(lái)套用,因?yàn)樵掝}有大有小,有的更貼近生活化的話題就可能不適合用這樣的模板來(lái)套用開(kāi)頭。
?
那到底怎樣開(kāi)頭會(huì)看起來(lái)比較自然和諧呢?
今天,我們就來(lái)介紹一下比較適合大部分獨(dú)立寫(xiě)作的開(kāi)頭段的方式
---讓步式開(kāi)頭法
我們都知道,托福獨(dú)立寫(xiě)作98%都是agree or disagree的類型,所以題目中都會(huì)涉及到對(duì)于同一個(gè)話題的兩個(gè)方面,所以我們可以先在開(kāi)頭段中讓步說(shuō)明自己不同意那方面的優(yōu)點(diǎn)。然后緊接著以轉(zhuǎn)折的方式過(guò)渡到自己的立場(chǎng)上就可以。
?
開(kāi)頭段的主要目的就是兩個(gè):一是向讀者轉(zhuǎn)述清楚題目,二是表明自己的觀點(diǎn)和立場(chǎng),所以不用在開(kāi)頭段中花費(fèi)太多的心思。
?
我們拿另外一個(gè)話題再試驗(yàn)一下。
?
Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Life today is easier and more comfortable than it was when your grandparents were children.
?
Some people miss the “good old days”, and think today’s life is filled with stress and material temptation. However, born in 1980s, I think today’s life is easier and more comfortable compared to the days when my grandparents were young.
?
這樣大家有沒(méi)有看出來(lái)這樣的開(kāi)頭會(huì)流暢很多呢?對(duì)比之下好很多了吧,所以以后大家在開(kāi)頭段的時(shí)候不妨也嘗試一下讓步式的開(kāi)頭方法,再也不用害怕寫(xiě)不出開(kāi)頭段啦~!
