托福写作审题和布局技巧说明

　一、审题的“性”
　　根据专家对于过去2年独立写作考题的分析，发现有90%以上的题目属于“支持/反对”型：
　　2011.01.30
　　Do you agree or disagree with the following statement?
　　Because the change of the society is so rapidly, people are less happy or less satisfied with their life than people did in the past time.
　　而剩下的则是由“对比论述型”构成的：
　　2011.03.13
　　Some people think children should spend most of their time in studying and playing while others think they should help their parents with the household chores. What’s your opinion?
　　在审题时，考生必须首先把题目通读1-3遍，彻底把握题目主旨后，方可进行段落布局。在这里，笔者结合自己的经验给考生们一些建议：首先，判断题目是否包含“”含义的词，若有，则按照上篇讲过的建议布局，若没有，则对于同意或者反对的理由进行快速的brain storming, 然后根据分论点的数量及论点的可延展性来敲定立场：
　　Some people think that human needs for farmland, housing, and industry are more important than saving land for endangered animals. Do you agree or disagree with this point of view? Why or why not? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.
