托福滿分作文填空法-魔板提取.doc

托福滿分作文填空法：“魔板”提取全過程亞洲易網 類型：轉載 日期：2009-5-5 責任編輯：yvonne 收藏此文 記得在大學時代，各個大學的BBS上包括我們華工就廣為流傳著“作文魔板”這個名詞，沒有自己體會過用套路寫作的人其實根本不可能理解到這其中的奧秘，因為有的人說背“魔板”是不可能得到高分的，而另一些人卻說不背“魔板”得到的高分是沒有“性價比”的。 實際上，就我個人而言，我認為魔板的背誦是非常必要的，但絕對不是能是盲目的！ 大家都知道，我們中國人其實在英語的聽說讀寫四個環(huán)節(jié)上最薄弱的就是輸出的兩個能力：說和寫；而最強的就是輸入的兩個能力：讀和聽。而如果我們想在出國的道路上成為佼佼者，那么在保持傳統(tǒng)強項的同時是否應該特別加強一下我們的口語和寫作能力呢？ 而根據我考TSE（TEST OF SPOKEN ENGLISH）的經驗，其實口語考試分數(shù)的高低（注意這里僅僅是指考試分數(shù)）幾乎完全取決于你到底背了多少段落。因為口語的TOPIC是覆蓋面非常廣泛的：教育、文化、歷史、生物、科技、藝術等等，所以這就從客觀上決定了考生必須背大量的段落，而實際上背的過程中也就是把不涉及過于具體內容的話背下來，到考試的時候再把聽到或看到題目要求的具體內容往里面加。一定要注意是從背具體的段落到提煉抽象的魔板最后再回到具體的段落： 具體 抽象 具體 下面我就分別以新TOFEL的綜合部分和GRE/GMAT作文的“阿狗”部分為例分別給大家分享一下我個人對于滿分的一些理解。 TOEFL iBT 其實新托福加了綜合部分以后，我個人認為是降低了難度。因為原來老托福的作文作為新托福作文的獨立部分并沒有什么太大的改變，而且大家都知道作文水平的提高不是一朝一夕的事情，那么我剛才說的不能盲目就是指大家不能在這個需要體現(xiàn)真正寫作水平的部分去背段落，因為這個是會被認為是舞弊行為的。那么在綜合、獨立各占15分的時候，我們如果能把握住任何一個部分的高分實際上平均下來的分數(shù)就不會低。而綜合部分由于是先讀一篇文章，再聽一段錄音，然后讓我們談文章與錄音的相互關系，而不用發(fā)表自己的觀點這一題目本身的客觀要求就決定了它是可以背由固定標準語句組成的“魔板”的。這正如研究生入學考試英語寫作的小作文和雅思寫作的小作文一樣是有固定套路的。比如錄音講座要么就是質疑或者反駁了閱讀段落；要么就是支持或者加強了閱讀段落，所以只需要把相關描述質疑或者反駁與描述支持或者加強的固定語句背下來就可以得到一個相對較高的分數(shù)，如果考生同時又把相關要點表達準確和清楚了的話，那么滿分是完全可能的。當綜合部分有15分在手的時候，獨立部分只要及格那么就能至少獲得24分的作文高分！ 比如以下兩個“魔板“是分別描述質疑或者反駁以及支持或者加強的： Integrated Writing Task How the Integrated Writing Task is phrased： If the lecture challenges the information in the reading passage， the writing task will usually be phrased in one of the following ways： Summarize the points made in the lecture， being sure to explain how they cast doubt on specific points made in the reading passage。 Summarize the points made in the lecture， being sure to explain how they challenge specific claims/arguments made in the reading passage。 Summarize the points made in the lecture， being sure to specifically explain how they answer the problems raised in the reading passage。 接下來，我將以如下例子來告訴大家如何提煉“魔板”： Getting the Templates The first point the professor makes that casts doubt on the reading is his point about the behavior of stags。 The professor shows how the actions of animal can be interpreted in different ways。 For example， some people interpret the stags actions as being for the “good of the species，” but the professor shows that the stag is actually acting in selfinterest。 This casts doubt on the reading because it appears that the crickets behavior can be interpreted as helping only individual crickets and not the group as a whole。 The professor then talks about the results of the experiment， which seems to indicate the crickets are acting only in selfinterest。Another point the professor makes that casts doubt on the reading is his point about the intelligence of animals and insects。 As he states， it would seem to require a lot of intelligence to evaluate how a behavior will affect an entire species。 This makes the explanation in the reading seem less likely; a cricket is probably unable to think of the consequences of its actions。 It is more likely that the cricket is only acting out of selfpreservation， as the professor indicates。 The first point the professor makes that casts doubt on the reading is his point about_。 The professor shows that_。 For example， _， but the professor shows that_。 This casts doubt on the reading because it appears that_。 The professor then talks about_， which seems to indicate that_。 Another point the professor makes that casts doubt on the reading is his point about_。 As he states， it would seem to_。 This makes the explanation in the reading seem less likely;_。 It is more likely that_， ad the professor indicates。實際上，大家從上面這個例子就可以發(fā)現(xiàn)“魔板”的提取過程就是這樣的： 先認真讀完一篇滿分范文 再用筆劃掉其中涉及題目具體內容的部分 最后把余下來的部分抄寫下來即可 但“魔板”做出來后只是做了一小半工作，大家還必須學會如何往里面填空，實際上最簡單的方法就是看著題目把具體內容自己填進去，然后跟范文對比，找出填空的精華技巧所在。 大家如果想在今后新托福的考試中作文部分有所突破，那么就應該按照我這個提煉“魔板”的方法，去至少提煉20篇左右的滿分范文，再加以有機排列組合成自己獨特的考試“魔板”，最后進行集中填空，那么新托福作文25分將不再是神話。 Showing Challenge In the lecture， the professor made several points about_。 The professor argues that_。 However， the reading contends that_。 The professors lecture casts doubts on the reading by using a number of points that are contrary to_。 The first point that the professor uses to cast doubt on the reading is that_。 According to the professor，_。 _ differs from the reading in that the reading states _。 The point made by the professor casts doubt on the reading because_。 Another point that the professor uses to casts doubt on the reading is _。 The professor claims that_。 However， the reading states _。 This point is contradicted by_。 Finally， the professor stated that， on the contrary of the reading， _。 In other words，_。 This directly contradicts what the reading passage indicates， because_。 In conclusion， the points made in the lecture contradict the reading。 _and_ demonstrate that _is in doubt。 If the lecture supports or strengthens the information in the reading passage， the writing task will usually be phrased in one of the following ways： Summarize the points made in the lecture， being sure to specifically explain how they support the explanations in the reading passage。 Summarize the points made in the lecture， being sure to specifically explain how they strengthen specific points made in the reading passage。 Showing support In the lecture， the professor made several points about_。 The professor argues that_。 The points made by the professor agree with_。 In fact， the examples used by the professor support_。 The first point that the professor uses to support the reading is that_。 According to the professor，_。 _supports the reading， which holds that_。 The point made by the professor supports the reading because_。 Furthermore， the professor bolsters the reading by stating that_。 The professor claims that_。 This point agrees with the reading， which contends that_。 _ sh
