2015年首场托福考试即将到来,相信很多同学现在手里都拿到了1月份的预测机经,但是问题是有些题目同学们完全没有思路,波波老师针对大家的这一困惑,从机经中精心筛选出三道较为有思考难度且题型完全不同的题目,写出较为详尽的思路和细节,希望能帮助大家做好考前的临门一脚。
NO.1
If your teacher say something incorrect in a class, what will you do? 1.interrupt your teacher right away 2. Keep silent 3. Correct your teacher after class
解析:这个题目是一个三选一的题目,笔者建议选择第三个选项,即correct your teacher after class,选用总分总结构,后面给出两个理由。
全文思路梳理:
理由一. 不会冒犯自己的老师,让老师下不了台,不会耽误课程的进度,相反 直接打断老师,是一种不尊重老师的表现。(Firstly, correcting teachers’ mistakes after class won’t offend them and make them embarrassed. This practice can well maintain teachers’ image and authority in front of students, which is very important for the successful proceeding of the whole class. (+具体事例) However, interrupting teachers right away will challenge teachers’ authority, which makes the class in disorder. Worse, the teaching process will be negatively affected with the result that student will have a bad academic performance. )
理由二. 课下纠正可以让老师意识到自己的错误,从而改正并改善教学内容 VS 保持沉默的话,老师就不能改正自己的错误,影响将来的学生接受的信息质量(Secondly, it can enable teachers to realize their own mistakes that we point out the incorrect information after class. As a result, teachers will know what the problems are and then endeavor to correct these errors. On the contrary, keeping silent make it impossible for teachers to be aware of the wrong information they imparted to students. Consequently, those students who accidently neglect teachers’ faults are likely to be misled.)
结尾段:Judging from the above evidence offered, I am convinced that we should correct teachers after class in case they make any mistakes, since this action will maintain the authority of our teachers and also bring benefits to the quality of education.
NO.2
It is as important for older people to study or learn new things as it is for younger people.
解析:这个题目是一个A=B的题目,笔者建议同意,因为只需分别说出A和B的各一个好处,就可以成功论证具体思路如下:
【全文思路梳理】
理由一:对老年人重要:因为可以锻炼思维,预防记忆力反应力的退化,或者老年痴呆症。(On the one hand, there is no denying that learning new things plays an important role in practicing the thinking of the old and is beneficial for their health. As we all know, it’s easier for old people to suffer from the lapse of memory and Alzheimer disease, and mental labor can contribute to preventing these illness.(+具体事例))
理由二:对年轻人重要:学习新的技能可以让年轻人在学习工作中表现优异,在激烈的竞争中脱颖而出。(On the other hand, it’s also indisputable that acquiring new knowledge is crucial for the young due to the fierce competition today. In order to outcompete others, youngsters have to develop more skills through learning new things.(+具体事例))
NO. 3
The most important goal of education is to teach people how to educate themselves.
解析:题目中含有绝对词“most”,理论上不同意更好写。笔者的观点是educate themselves不是最重要的目的,因为不同的教育阶段教育的目的各不相同, 然后采用拆分法将education拆分成 小学教育,大学教育说出他们分别的目标,最后让步。
【全文思路梳理】
理由一:小学阶段是为了树立正确的价值观和传授基本的识字算数能力。(Firstly, the primary purpose of elementary education is to build correct values and impart basic knowledge like calculating and writing.(+具体事例) )
理由二:大学阶段最重要的目的是教授学生专业知识,锻炼能力,从而找到理想工作。(Secondly, the major goal of higher education is teaching professional knowledge and practicing skills. As we all know, college education is such a transitional period from students to employees.)
结尾段:诚然,培养人们自我教育能力确实也是一个重要的目标,因为在学校学到的知识总是有限的,所以遇到新的情况只能通过自学来解决。(Admittedly, the ability of educating oneself is something we need to get from school education, in that what we can acquire in schools is limited. However, when compared with these explanations and details I just provided to support my position, this statement looks particularly lackluster. Consequently, I am still convinced that teaching people how to educate themselves is not the most important goal, for we have different requirement in different study periods.)
