托福写作是对考生能力考察比较全面的一个项目,句子和语法都是重要考察点,想要考好托福口语,需要考生在平时做好积累。小编为大家带来托福写作高分句型整理。
I 准确的句子表达
1. 句型分析
英语的句型包括以下几种,简单句、复合句、并列句、并列复合句等。在新托福写作中,一般使用复合句,辅以并列句和并列复合句,当然肯定要有简单句,做到长短句相结合。下面摘抄几个句子给大家认识并分析一下复合句和并列复合句。
a. Even though I usually know what I have to say, I cannot always express myself correctly in English.
这句话是一个复合句,由even though引导的让步状语从句。
b. This challenges me to practice my spoken English, with the result that I can complete the speaking tasks more fluently and quickly.
这句话中是一个复合句。with介词结构中,有一个that引导的同位语从句对result进行解释说明。
c. I think this is less than ideal because any differences in opinion become personal conflicts, and therefore that might jeopardize the employee’s job.
上句话是一个并列复杂句。and 连接了两个句子,是一个并列句;because引导的原因状语从句。
d. Shallow writing is indicative of weak critical-thinking skills, and such writing, which is often described as “sophomoric”, receives low mark.
这句话同样是并列复杂句。由and连接两个句子,成为并列句,再一个which引导的定语从句。
2. 有问题的句子的列举
考生写的句子容易出现三个问题:一是使用破碎句,二是使用接连句,三是句子连接不正确。
1). 破碎句
所谓破碎句,就是句子不完整,通常是没有谓语(或者说谓语是动词的非谓语形式,如分词),或者是从句单独成句。
破碎句:She singing alone. (无谓语,singing是现在分词)
正确句:She is singing alone.
破碎句:He did not come. Because he was sick. (从句单独成句)
正确句:He did not come because he was sick.
2).接连句
所谓接连据,就是两个句子直接连在一起,既未使用连词,也未使用正确的标点符号。
接连句:Professionals such as lawyers or accountants usually work longer hours than factory workers they have greater freedom in planning their time.
正确句一:Professionals such as lawyers or accountants usually work longer hours than factory workers. However, they have greater freedom in planning their time.
正确句二:Professionals such as lawyers or accountants usually work longer hours than factory workers; however, they have greater freedom in planning their time.
3).句子连接不正确
所谓句子连接不正确,就是两个独立的句子之间以逗号连接,这是不合英语语法的。正确的做法是以连词、分号、冒号、句号等连接两个句子。
不正确句:Breaking chalk into two pieces is a physical change, there is no change in the composition of the chalk.
正确句:Breaking chalk into two pieces is a physical change, so there is no change in the composition of the chalk.
II 高分表达
除了在句式上长短句相结合准确表达外,建议新托福考生要使用一些特殊的句式,以使句型多样化。句型多样化也是作文得到高分的条件之一。除了我们之前经常提到的高分句式,如倒装句、强调句、状语前置、插入语等,笔者还提出另外一个句式的多样变化,即主语多样化。下面笔者将列举几个句子概括介绍前面四种句型,而重点分析主语多样化。
正常句:Luck only works in extreme cases.
倒装句:Only in extreme cases does luck work.(否定词位于句首的倒装。)
正常句:The internet provides people access to the latest information.
强调句:It is the internet that provides people access to the latest information. (强调the internet)
正常句:The environment has been deteriorating severely along with the development of industry.
状语前置句:Along with the accelerating development of industry, the environment has been deteriorating severely.
正常句:However, new zoos try to duplicate animals’ natural habitats as much as possible and give animals a comfortable amount of space.
插入语:New zoos, however, try to duplicate animals’ natural habitats as much as possible and give animals a comfortable amount of space. (连词however做插入语)
根据现有的大量证据,我们可以有把握地得出这样的结论:三峡工程将永远改变无数人的生活。
2. The ample evidence presented enables us to reasonably conclude that the scourge of AIDS will be brought under control in the foreseeable future .
提出的充分证据使我们能够合理地得出这样的结论:艾滋病的祸害在可预见的将来就能得到控制。
3. We must seek immediate solutions for problems leading to the rapid depletion of the earth's ozone layer. If allowed to proceed unchecked , the problem will undoubtedly exacerbate global warming and threaten life as we know it today .
我们必须寻求立即解决引起地球臭氧层快速损耗的问题的办法。如果任其自由发展,这一问题无疑会加剧全球升温,并且正如今天我们所知道的那样危及生命。
