TOEFL.iBT 高分作文思路＋范文完美重排版

1. Why people attend college?

People attend college or university for many different reasons (for example, new experiences, career preparation, increased knowledge). Why do you think people attend college or university? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.

『分析』

说明人们选择上大学的具体原因(一个或者多个)：增加经验、拓展知识、开阔视野

为了实现理想(ideal; idealistic)(如，周恩来就是为中华之崛起而读书)为了保证将来的就业机会父母要求子女上大学别人都上大学了，所以自己也选择读书找不到工作

("无知"，总是一部分人做出某个选择的理由。上大学如是[1]，去博物馆如是[12]，从事危险运动亦如是[43]。)

『范文』

After graduating from high school many young people have the option to directly enter the work force. Most students who have the opportunity, however, decide to go to college before finding jobs (They attend college to obtain more choices,-higher salaries, and more opportunities for advancement in an increasingly competitive job market. Before attending college, students have a limited opportunity to specialize. After obtaining a specific college degree a job applicant can be competitive for previously unavailable jobs. For instance, applicants with Computer

Science degrees would not only be qualified for jobs in high-tech companies, they would also be well prepared for

any job with computer skills as a prerequisite. With a larger range of potential jobs to choose from, degree holders

are more likely to find a job that suits their particular needs and interests.

Additionally, employers are willing to pay a premium for highly qualified applicants. For example, many

companies desire employees who are competent in more than one language and offer higher salaries to attract

them. Even if a job applicant without a college degree has high standardized test scores, employers may still place

a higher value on an applicant with similar test scores who also possesses credentials from a well-known

university. Because of the extent to which a college degree is accepted by employers as proof of competence in a

given field, college graduates are not only more likely to receive more job offers, they can also command higher

salaries than applicants who lack college diplomas.

Finally, in addition to offering more choices and higher salaries, a college degree offers access to jobs with a

clear path towards professional advancement. A B.S. in biology, for example, could allow a student to find a job

in a lab after graduation, a first step on the road towards a career in scientific research. The same major could also

be used to apply to medical school, and a career as a doctor. Both of these avenues would be unavailable without

taking the first step of an undergraduate degree in biology.

2. Are parents the best teachers? Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Parents are the best teachers. Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.

『分析』

因观点绝对而不能同意。

不是所有的父母都是好老师

最好的老师不仅仅是父母

有些父母尽管善良，但对教育孩子一无所知

z有些父母不配做孩子的老师，对孩子有不良影响

『范文』

Obviously, in most cases the earliest teachers people have are their parents, and parents are generally most concerned about the development of their children. However, it is not completely true to say that parents

are the best teachers.

First of all, not all parents are good teachers. As normal individuals, some parents more or less have some bad habits. Even though parents almost instinctively devote themselves to cultivating their offspring, the outcome might turn out to be disappointment, for all children tend to unconsciously or subconsciously copy everything including bad ones from their parents. Another deficiency of parents as teachers is the fact that most parents are lack of common senses of education. All too often we observe some parents tend to pursue their cherished but failed dream by forcing their children to develop in a prearranged direction. Ironically, when their children do not follow the instructions, the children will be regarded as disobedient or allegedly rebellious. In fact, it is parents rather than their children that virtually disobey common senses Moreover, some parents are qualified as good teachers, but not all of them are the best ones. When children are in the preliminary school, it is not surprising that parents are perhaps capable of teaching their children almost every subject even better than professional teachers in the school. But the situation will not last long. We live in a world where knowledge is accumulated by multiplying and at the same time becomes more and more specialized. Therefore, to be a professional in a certain field today takes much longer time than has ever been before. No parent is able to be professional in all fields, though they might be experts in one or more fields. Wise parents often release rather than charge their children as early as possible. They are aware of the possibility outside the family.

Parents may, nevertheless, help their children much more than do good teachers. Most parts of children education are virtually beyond teachers' reaches. It is parents that supplement. Psychology studies have shown us that parents' love sometimes has astonishingly magic power to their children. Albeit Einstein's mother and that of Forest Gump are both good examples. On the other hand, parents might do their children harm more than do bad teachers as well. The natures of those children whose parents have divorced are often severely distorted.

In a word, it is rather superficial to simply say that parents are the best teachers.

3. Does easier-prepared food improve the way people live?

Nowadays, food has become easier to prepare. Has this change improved the way people live? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer. 『分析』

总体上，“食物变得越来越容易准备”是一种进步[37]，所以自然会带来improvement。使人们的生活方式发

生了一些变化：

好的：

节省时间，越来越方便，一定程度上把妇女从繁杂的家务中解放了出来

也有不好的变化：

准备食物是一种重要的家庭活动，可是食物变得容易准备一定程度上使家人在一起的时间减少

了，比如“速冻饺子”[quick-frozen dumpling]

快餐业的高速发展的一个直接结果是，人们普遍变胖了，尤其是孩子

『范文』

People today can prepare their meal much easier than has ever been before. To prepare a single dinner,provident housewives usually had to work for hours in the past: they had to buy home dirty vegetables which had to wash, meat which had to slice, and so on so forth. Each and every step of preparation was a time-consuming task. But now, things are entirely different. Supermarkets provide vegetables and meat clean and neat, some of them even have relevant ingredients and need only a few minutes to be made into delicious meals. And this change has indeed greatly improved the way people live. In a sense, food preparation is no longer a tedious task, at least much easier to tolerate. Such a change has liberated many women and given them chance to do more meaningful things, for example, a higher pay job or a more respectful one. On the other hand, more men are becoming willing to do the thing that they once hated so much, and in some cases such transformation of men brought dramatic positive impact on the family. Today, it's not hard to imagine a wife comes home after a day's hard work and how delightful she is to find out his husband has already prepared her several her favorite dishes! Children can more easily become independent—at least they can make themselves breakfasts or dinners when parents are occasionally not present. But such a change has also brought some unexpected consequences. Girls nowadays are becoming more and more reluctant to deem household work as their responsibility. The reason is quite straightforward: it was once really ridiculous to insist men do trivial household work rather than go work and earn money to support family, but conditions have altered now, girls might think: "I can work as well, or maybe I can earn a higher salary than you do, dear boy friend, if you want to marry me, answer me one question first, will you prepare me breakfast and dinner every day?" And some boys, on the other hand, are becoming hesitant to get married, or simply remain solitary, among miscellaneous reasons they do so is one thing: "I can take care of myself, at least I don't really need someone prepare me dinner!" Anyway, such a change is positive and it did improve the quality of people's life. At least it has brought girls, boys, husbands, wives, children and everyone else who has to prepare food an opportunity, no matter what kind of

opportunity it is.

4. Which is more important, book knowledge or experience?

It has been said, "Not everything that is learned is contained in books."

Compare and contrast

knowledge gained from experience with knowledge gained from books. In your opinion, which source is

more important? Why?

『分析』

注意一定要先进行比较

从书本中获取的知识

优点：

题材、范围更多

有更多的深度

更加的系统

缺点：

有时过于教条

也不见得完全准确

从经验中获取的知识

优点：

获取直接、简单明了

更加地实用

有些知识无法从书本中获得

缺点：

不系统，很大的随意性

很容易产生片面理解

不一定要说A比B更重要，或者B比A更重要。也可以选择在不同的情况下，有不同的比较。学习抽象

的知识，书本是最好的来源。学习游泳，这只能靠经验。另外，大多数的知识要书本经验相结合才可

以。

相关题目：[116]

有些科目或者知识适合通过实践学习，比如，语言，体育

有些科目或者知识适合通过阅读学习，比如，物理、化学、历史、地理

有些科目或者知识适合通过与别人交流来学习，比如销售技巧；管理技巧

所以不能一概而论(treat different things/problems/matters] as the same)，要看学什么，以及学习的阶段。

『范文』

In general, knowledge gained from books has a wider range than that gained from experience. We now live in a world that typophile is no longer exorbitant, and that printed matters are readily available. In libraries, we can learn nearly everything only if we have already acquired basic reading skills, philosophy, history, literature, physics, mathematics, chemicals, biology, geography, anthropology, and the list will go on. Unlike the experience of an individual that is limited by the range of that individual, books seem to have almost no limitation. Sitting in the local library, we virtually can travel everywhere through an interesting geographic encyclopedia, and certainly, with nearly no expense at all.

On the other hand, it can be argued that sometimes knowledge gained from experience is much deeper and more comprehensive than that gained from books. It is quite true that not every thing is contained in books. How to deal with personal finance, how to cope with current social trends, even how to most effectively organize our own mind, and numerous other things can seldom be found thoroughly and comprehensively discussed in books, we have to gain the knowledge by our own experience. And the sad news is that even some knowledge that is contained in books usually needs further comprehension, mainly through experience. As to which source is more important, the answers vary. Some knowledge can be acquired only through books. It's hard to imagine we can have a good understanding of history without reading books. On the other hand, some knowledge can be obtained only through experience. When we try to learn to swim, merely a detailed manual of swimming skills, even abundantly filled with illustrations, is at most useless. We have to jump into the water and then gain the knowledge with experience. We have to use books and experience as source simultaneously to get what we want to know. Take learning physics for example, both books and experiences are equally important sources, and examples as such are numerous. Therefore, I think whether one source is more important than the other depends on circumstances.

5. The advantages and disadvantages of a new factory near your community

A company has announced that it wishes to build a large factory near your community. Discuss the

advantages and disadvantages of this new influence on your community. Do you support or oppose the

factory? Explain your position.

『分析』

先讨论“假设工厂真的落成了，而带来的好处和坏处”，而后发表看法。

好处：

直接增加了就业机会(到工厂去上班)；间接增加了就业机会(会有很多服务业，比如饭店、商店、

超市等等跟着开业)

如果工厂规模足够大，物流规模也足够大，那么将最终成为交通改善的起点

大的工厂可以缴纳很多税，对地方财政有好处，进而促进社区的繁荣

坏处：

带来各种污染，比如，噪音、废气、污水等等

工厂不一定会赢利
