写作
口语部分非常快结束,下面的是最后一项-写作部分。
第一部分综合写作需要概括听力材料反驳阅读材料中关于电子眼用途的看法。 阅读材料觉得Speed Camera 有如下用途:1。Warning people to drive more safely; 2. Freeing police force patrolling the highway so that they can do other work; 3 Making courts decision on ticket disputes more easily so as to relieve court congestion1. 听力材料中的Lecturer 逐条反驳了上述看法。
点评:此题中的读、听材料都采取分条叙述方法,条理性较强,破、立点对应关系明确。但应该注意不要单纯概括Lecture要素,还要剖析和讲解它是怎么样质疑和反驳阅读材料里的看法的。如Lecture的第一点是:电子眼的出现会使某些司机玩老鼠逗猫 的游戏,即只在电子眼附近减速,在两个电子眼之间的路段就超速。但仅概括这类内容还不够,还要继续说明上述看法怎么样有力地质疑了阅读材料中关于电子眼可以督促司机安全驾驶的看法。
独立写作部分需要讨论一个教育问题:Is it more important for a teacher to help students gain self-confidence or to teach them specific knowledge? 题目仍需要Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer
点评:这是一道看法比较题,因此既要论,又要比:即假如选A,不只要论述A的要紧,还要说明为何A比B要紧。我选择了:帮学生获得自信更要紧。理由列了两条:
第一条:A student with high-level self-confidence will study specific knowledge more actively2, more wisely and more efficiently3. On the contrary, one can hardly find a person who succeeds in a task when he doubts his or her ability.
第二条理由:One may forget most of his or her specific knowledge taught at school, but a trait such as self-confidence formed during the school age may affect and benefit him for his whole life. A teacher is just in the best position to help those young people develop such invaluable4 traits.
两篇文章都按时完成,不足的是第二篇剩下的检查时间太少,只有两分钟。写作文时本想拿掉耳机,但刚一拿下,只听得满屋的敲键声,索性戴着耳机写到了最后。
总结
在Listening、Speaking和Writing三部分,我对其中的听力材料都认真做了笔记。不一样的是,Listening Section的笔记重视局部要素和细节; 而Speaking Section和 Writing Section的笔记则偏重于材料看法的记录和整理。
9点钟,考试结束。在确认本次考试有效后,看着大多数还在紧张答卷的同学们,我长舒了一口气。走出耕耘楼, 呼吸着夜晚的新鲜空气,回望身后灯火通明的教学楼,我心中默念:Good Luck,Every 托福ER!
