托福寫作內(nèi)容更精煉的方法介紹

一、盡量減少重復(fù)，不要太啰嗦

1.盡量避免重復(fù)使用同樣的詞匯?；蛘哂械臅r候雖然詞匯沒有重復(fù)，但意思卻有重復(fù)。這時候可以做一些簡化的工作。例如下面這個例子：

The farm my grandfather grew up on was large in size.

large 對一個farm來說就是size方面的large，所以in size可以去掉，改為：

The farm my grandfather grew up on was large.

更簡潔的表達(dá)方式為：

My grandfather grew up on a large farm.

2.有時一個詞組可以用一個更簡單的單詞來替換，例如：

My grandfather has said over and over again that he had to work on his

parents’ farm.

這里的over and over again就可以改為repeatedly，顯得更為簡潔：

My grandfather has said repeatedly that he had to work on his parents’

farm.

二、選擇比較實(shí)際實(shí)用的單詞，不用空洞的詞匯

1.一些空洞的單詞或詞組根本不能為句子帶來任何相關(guān)的或重要的信息，完全可以被刪掉。比如下面的句子：

When all things are considered， young adults of today live more satisfying

lives than those of their parents， in my opinion.

這句話當(dāng)中的“when all things are considered”和“in my opinion“都顯得多余。完全可以去掉。改為：

Young adults of today live more satisfying lives than their parents.

2.有些空洞和繁瑣的表達(dá)方式可以進(jìn)行替換，例如：

Due to the fact that our grandparents were under an obligation to help

their parents， they did not have the options that young people have at this

point in time.

“due to the fact that”就是一個很典型的繁瑣的表達(dá)方式的例子，可以替換，簡化為下面的表達(dá)方式：

Because our grandparents were obligated to help their parents， they did not

have the options that young people have now.

三、相關(guān)語法要選擇最恰當(dāng)?shù)谋磉_(dá)方式

選擇合適的語法結(jié)構(gòu)可以使句子意思的表達(dá)更為精確和簡練。雖然語法的多樣性也很重要，但選擇最恰當(dāng)?shù)恼Z法結(jié)構(gòu)仍然是更為重要的考慮因素。以下，推薦幾種考生們在考慮選擇何種語法結(jié)構(gòu)時可以參考的原則：

1.一個句子的主語和謂語動詞應(yīng)該能夠反映句子中的最重要的意思。例如：.

The situation that resulted in my grandfather’s not being able to study engineering was that his father needed help on the farm.

從意思上來分析，上面這句話需要表達(dá)的重要的概念是“grandfather’s not being able to　study”，而在表達(dá)這個概念時，原句用的主語是situation，謂語動詞是was，不能強(qiáng)調(diào)需要表達(dá)的重點(diǎn)概念，可以改為下面這句話：

My grandfather couldn’t study engineering because his father needed help on　the farm.

2.避免頻繁使用“there be”結(jié)構(gòu)，例如下面的句子：

There were 25 cows on the farm that my grandfather had to milk every day.It was hard work for my grandfather.

可以改為：My grandfather worked hard. He had to milk 25 cows on the farm every day.

更簡潔的句式為：

My grandfather worked hard milking 25 cows daily.

3.把從句改為短語或單詞。例如：

Dairy cows were raised on the farm， which was located 100 kilometers from the nearest university and was in an area that was remote.

簡介的表達(dá)方式為：

The dairy farm was located in a remote area， 100 kilometers to the nearest university.

4.僅在需要強(qiáng)調(diào)賓語而不是主語的時候，才使用被動語態(tài)。例如：

In the fall， not only did the cows have to be milked， but also the hay was mowed and stacked by my grandfather’s family.

本句不夠簡潔的原因是本句的重心應(yīng)該是“忙碌的家庭-my grandfather’s

family”，而使用了被動語態(tài)后，仿佛重心變成了cows和hay。下面的表達(dá)方式是主動語態(tài)，相對來說更簡潔一些：

In the fall， my grandfather’s family not only milked the cow but also mowed　and stacked the hay.

5.用更為精確的一個動詞來代替動詞短語，例如下面這句話：

My grandfather didn’t have time to stand around doing nothing with his　school friends.

Stand around doing nothing其實(shí)可以用一個動詞來表達(dá)，即loiter：My grandfather didn’t have time to loiter with his school friends.

6.有時兩句話的信息經(jīng)過組合完全可以用一句話來簡練地表達(dá)，例如：

Profits from the farm were not large. Sometimes they were too small to meet　the expenses of running a farm. They were not sufficient to pay for a university　degree.

兩句話的信息可以合并為下面這句更為簡潔的句子：

Profits from the farm were sometimes too small to meet operational expenses，let alone pay for a university degree.

簡單并不代表沒有難度，一篇好的托福作文，必須邏輯清晰、詞匯和句式運(yùn)用恰當(dāng)。如果考生對新托福寫作備考中的長句沒有太大的把握，那么不妨拆成更有把握的短句，一樣能獲得高分。

托福寫作內(nèi)容更精煉的方法介紹就到這里，同學(xué)們一定要對自己的寫作有很強(qiáng)的把控能力，調(diào)理一定要清晰。祝大家考試順利!
