托福写作避免事项以及应对方法

在托福写作中，考生往往会由于写不出，又或者是词汇匮乏而导致出现一些废话或重复的现象，但就是这些废话可能就是考官判你写作低分的原因。下面就为考生带来托福写作需要避免事项以及应对方法，希望考生能够在平时的托福培训中能够多加练习，为考生的备考有所帮助。
一、避免空洞的单词和词组
1. 在托福写作中，一些空洞的单词或词组根本不能为句子带来任何相关的或重要的信息，完全可以被删掉。比如下面的句子：
When all things are con sidered，young adults of today live more satisfying lives than those of their parents， in my opinion.
这句话当中的“when all things are con sidered”和“in my opinion“都显得多余。完全可以去掉。改为：
Young adults of today live more satisfying lives thantheir parents.
2. 有些空洞和繁琐的表达方式可以进行替换，例如：
Due to the fact that our grandparents were under anobligation to help their parents， they did not have theoptio ns that young people have at this point in time.
“due to the fact that”就是一个很典型的繁琐的表达方式的例子，可以替换，简化为下面的表达方式：
Because our grandparents were obligated to help theirparents， they did not have the option s that youngpeople have now.
二、避免重复
1. 在托福写作中，尽量避免重复使用同样的词汇。或者有的时候虽然词汇没有重复，但意思却有重复。这时候可以做一些简化的工作。例如下面这个例子：：
The farm my grandfather grew up on was large in size.
large 对一个farm来说就是size方面的large，所以insize可以去掉，改为：
The farm my grandfather grew up on was large.
更简洁的表达方式为：
My grandfather grew up on a large farm.
2. 有时一个词组可以用一个更简单的单词来替换，例如：
My grandfather has said over and over again that he hadto work on his parents' farm.
这里的over and over again就可以改为repeatedly，显得更为简洁：
My grandfather has said repeatedly that he had to workon his parents' farm.
以上就是考生在备考托福写作练习时需要留意的点，希望考生在托福培训中能避免以上所述的内容，若出现亦可以上述的建议方法进行改进。
