2010托福写作优秀范⽂实例⼀范⽂1People 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.People attend colleges or universities for a lot of different reasons. I believe that the three most common reasons are to prepare for a career，to have new experiences，and to increase their knowledge of themselves and the world around them.Career preparation is becoming more and more important to young people. For many，this is the primary reason to go to college，They know that the job market is competitive. At college，they can learn new skill for careers with a lot of opportunities. This means careers，such as information technology，that are expected to need a large workforce in the coming years.Also，students go to colleges and universities to have new experiences. This often means having the opportunity to meet people different from those in their hometowns. For most students，going to college is the first time they‘ve been away from home by themselves. In additions，this is the first time they’ve had to make decisions on their own. Making these decisions increases their knowledge of themselves.Besides looking for self-knowledge，people also attend a university or college to expand their knowledge in subjects they find interesting. For many，this will be their last chance for a long time to learn about something that doesn‘t relate to their career.I would recommend that people not be so focused on a career. They should go to college to have new experiences and learn about themselves and the world they live in.范⽂2Do you agree or disagree with the following statement？ Parents are the best teachers. Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.Throughout my life， I have been lucky enough to have a very good relationship with my parents. They have supported me，given me necessary criticism， and taught me a great deal about how to live my life. Parents can be very important teachers in our lives; however， they are not always the best teachers.Parents may be too close to their children emotionally. Sometimes they can only see their children though the eyes of a protector. For example，they may limit a child‘s freedom in the name of safety. A teacher might see a trip to a big city as a valuable new experience. However，it might seem too dangerous to a parent.Another problem is that parents may expect their children’s interests to be similar to their own. They can‘t seem to separate from their children in their mind. If they love science，they may try to force their child to love science too. But what if their child’s true love is art，or writing o，r car repair？Parents are usually eager to pass on their value to their children. But should children always believe what their parents do？Maybe different generations need different ways of thinking. When children are young，they believe that their parents are always rights. But when they get older，they realize there are other views. Sometimes parents，especially older ones，can‘t keep up with rapid social or technology changes. A student who has friends of all different races and backgrounds at school may find that her parents don’t really understand or value the digital revolution. Sometimes kids have to find their own ways to what they believe in.The most important thing to realize is that we all have many teachers in our lives. Our parents teach us，our teachers teach us，and our peers teach us. Books and newspapers and television also teach us. All of them are valuable.范⽂3Nowadays，food has become easier to prepare. Has this change improved the way people live？Use specific reasons andexamples to support your answer.The twentieth century has brought with it many advances. With those advances，human lives have changed dramatically. In some ways life is worse，but mostly it is better. Changes in food preparation methods，for example， have improved our lives greatly.The convenience of preparing food today is amazing. Even stoves have gotten too slow for us. Microwave cooking is much easier. We can press a few buttons and a meal is completely cooked in just a short time. People used to spend hours preparing an oven-cooked meal，and now they can use that time for other，better things. Plus，there are all kinds of portable，prepackaged foods we can buy. Heat them in the office microwave，and lunch at work is quick and easy.Food preparation today allows for more variety. With refrigerators and freezers，we can preserve a lot of different foods in our homes. Since technology makes cooking so much faster，people are willing to make several dishes for even a small meal. Parents are more likely to let children be picky，now that they can easily heat them up some prepackaged macaroni and cheese on the side. Needless to say，adults living in the same house may have very different eating habits as well. If they don‘t want to cook a lot of different dishes，it’s common now to eat out at restaurants several times a week.Healthful eating is also easier than ever now. When people cook， they use new fat substitutes and cooking sprays to cut fat and calories. This reduces the risk of heart disease and high cholesterol. Additionally，we can buy fruits and vegetable fresh，frozen or canned. They are easy to prepare，so many of us eat more of those nutritious items daily. A hundred years ago，you couldn‘t imagine the process of taking some frozen fruit and ice from the freezer， adding some low-fat yogurt from a plastic cup and some juice from a can in the refrigerator，and whipping up a low-fat smoothie in the blender！Our lifestyle is fast，but people still like good food. What new food preparation technology has given us is more choices. Today，we can prepare food that is more convenient，healthier，and of greater variety than ever before in history.。

2010年托福考试风起云涌，新题老题更替出现，口语题目一些新题偏题的出现也让很多考生着实头疼，本文旨在回顾分析2010年新托福口语考试趋势以及谈谈如何应对2011年新托福口语考试。

TASK 1今年考过的口语第一题大部分仍旧在基本话题，比如：人、地、事、物的范围之内，但是某些题目考察了一些新颖特别的话题，这些话题的出现会让考生发现自己没有准备过这个题，也就是所谓的“备考盲区”。

比如今年考到了“谈谈你们国家最有意思的服装”，很多考生之前并未准备这道题，而且之前也没有基本知识储备，所以就会有茫然无措的感觉。

其实考生在准备基本话题的同时，应该注意答题思路的练习。

如果考生心里很清楚应该用两三个分论点进行阐述，并且适当加上简单的例子进行论证，用also , if , without , with等过渡词进行思路的展开，这道题还是不难回答的。

而且，考生不要使用过于复杂专业的词汇，有些学生就把旗袍念成Qi Pao，然后简单解释为中国传统服饰，多以大红色为主，现在是在婚礼宴席等正式场合经常穿着的服饰，这样简单介绍的思路完全可以应付这种刁钻的考题。

所以，考生在备考2011年考试的时候，要对2010年考试的题目进行模拟练习，一方面积极准备一些非基本话题，比如喜欢的音乐类型，喜欢的玩具或游戏还有国内最新的新闻等等，一方面也要进行即兴答题的练习，这样的话才能对考试有很好的准备。

2009年北美考试的口语题目也可以进行模拟训练，口语的前两道题准备时间不长，所以考生可以不遗漏地练习09，10年的机经，既锻炼口语，又有可能考到练习过的题目。

TASK 2第二题的考试范围还是集中在学生熟悉的学习生活话题范围之内。

比如学习方法的选择方面，考生可以从improve learning efficiency(提高学习效率)，enjoy the learning process(享受学习过程)，cultivate team-work spirit(培养团队精神)这些方面去分析问题。

Directions:Study the following drawing carefully and write an essay inwhich you should1) describe its drawing2) interpret its meaning, and3) give your comment on it.You should write 160 – 200 words neatly on ANSWER SHEET 2. (20 points)52.范文In the picture, a boy is absorbed in chatting on line. When his aged mother asks him to have a chat, the boy responds impatiently: “Don’t you see I am busy now?” Puzzled and disappointed, the mother cannot understand why her son is talking to a computer.The simple dialogue between the son and his mother reveals the fact that youngsters nowadays prefer to talk to the anonymous over the internet rather than people around them. Interpersonal communication seems to be out of favor with the young generation in the internet age. Two reasons can be concluded about the phenomenon. Firstly, the privilege of anonymity allows the young to say whatever is innermost, while the face-to-face contact is superfluous to a certain extend. Secondly, because of the age gap, parents are less likely to kno w what their children are thinking and feeling, which makes the rare conversations boring.However, on the one hand, chatting on the internet has many hidden dangers. You cannot really know a person well only by reading the words he types, because he is probably showing what he wants to be rather than what he really is. On the other hand, for lack of real life communication with elders, peers and youngers, young people may lose the opportunities to learn to be courteous, cooperative and friendly. Therefore, I wish interpersonal relationship would be strong enough to defend itself against the temptation of the Internet.第二套题：Section III WritingPart A51.
