2015.10.25托福独立写作参考范文
10.25号托福独立写作题目是“People in the past are more friendly than people today”.考前紧张复习的同学们对这道题目应该不陌生，因它出现在了各大机构的预测题中。

我们在课上也有练习过，上过托福强化段的小伙伴们有木有印象呢？但是这个题目因为话题太抽象，在构思和扩展这两个方面都有较大难度。

这篇范文从“同意”的角度出发，即现在的人们不如过去友好，采用1+1的篇章结构，从两个方面论证导致人们不友好的原因：现代快节奏的生活以及社会中诚信缺失的现象。

两个段落中分别使用了分点讨论、举例等论证方法。

希望对大家有帮助。

People in this day and age often find themselves longing for the harmonious and sincere relationship in the ancient times when it was common for our ancestors to accommodate a stranger. Such a time seems gone forever for it has been consistently argued that modern people are much less friendly than their counterparts in the past. Personally, I am in favor of this statement because the revolutionary changes in our way of living and our values have reshaped individual’s attitude towards friendliness.
The modern way of living is driving people to an unfriendly situation from several aspects. Fast tempo, fierce competition and the resulting overwhelming pressure from work are exhausting the white collars, especially the long-distance commuters who might have to spend hours on public transport during rush hours. Thus, it is fairly understandable when a tired young man did not offer his seat to an elderly woman on the bus, which is commonly considered as an unfriendly behavior. Moreover, after arriving at the rented house in a tall
building, people tend to lock themselves in and spend time alone, such as watching movies, reading and sleeping, rather than chat with neighbors. Chances are high that the neighbors might not know about each other, let alone be friendly. It turns out to be vicious circle. This case is in sharp contrast with the situation in the past, when people living in the neighborhood were like a big family and were always there to care and help others. Therefore, it is not exaggerated to say people being unfriendly can be attributed to the modern living style.
In this dishonesty-prevailing society, many people choose to be unfriendly to protect themselves. It is not unusual to see from our surroundings that many beggars are disguised as disabled or in a miserable situation in order to cheat the kind citizens for money. What is more, news reports often have that those who kindly help the old person lying on the street are not rewarded, but are deliberately blamed by the family of the old as the one causing the accident and are required to pay all the medical bills. Even some charity organizations are not as reliable as before, for they appropriate the money donated for the people in need to pursue their own interest. In face of all these cases, few people are willing to help strangers, because good deeds might cause misunderstanding and even financial loss. In contrast, in the past when people are not that money-oriented, the society is much more harmonious that people smile and even care for strangers without hesitation. Therefore, there is no doubt that distrust between each other is a big contributor to the people’s unfriendliness.
In conclusion, it is justified to say that people today are less friendly than the older generations. This is partly due to that modern people are under huge pressure and lead a life of a rapid pace. The dishonesty among people also plays a part in isolating them from each other.。
