托福备考时间表分享 各个备考阶段你究竟应该做什么?
托福备考时间表分享之 初阶
任务1：英语能力的切实提高期，本阶段的练习，对GRE、托福等英语考试，都有效果，甚至英语四级、六级。
任务2：对托福考试的题目难度、自己的英语实力能够达到多少，有一个摸底性质的认识。通过1-2套题目的练习，达到本任务的训练效果。
● 托福听力：
1、 听1-2遍托福的听力，对托福考试的听力，有一个基本的感觉，利用平时的零碎时间。
2、 将美国大片的英文字母盖住(VCD用一个本子在最下面就可以，DVD可以去掉中文字幕)，这个可以在不想学习的时候，用这个，即可以消遣，有切实对学习有收获，也是一种“双赢备考”。每周给自己来个周末影院，刚开始，可能看不懂，没关系，多看几遍。这种为了知道情节而拼命去听的练习效果，绝对不低。这个方法一直很有效果的。
3、 每天坚持听一些voa、cnn的新闻，满分校园也会在每日学习中安排。
4、 英文歌曲，仔细听歌曲的歌词(休闲用)。
5、 走遍美国(地道美语，对前面的短语对话题有效，可以选择)。
● 托福阅读：
1、 阅读20篇托福阅读，对托福阅读的难度，有一个总体的了解。
2、 每天坚持阅读、背诵，书里有很多非常经典的英语句子，在写作、阅读中，都有作用。
3、 每天坚持阅读Time、纽约时报、华盛顿邮报等国外报纸网站上的文章，尽量少看中文报纸，自己的看报的习惯，改为看英文报纸。喜欢体育的，多看体育版，喜欢流行资讯的，多看流行资讯版。
4、 坚持看discovery、国家地理等网站的文章，看自己感兴趣的。这些知识，在的考试中，是极其有用，很多阅读，都是现在最流行的自然科学。
● 托福写作：
1、 看5篇历年托福作文的作文题，看看范文，看看要写到什么程度。
2、 看《填空式作文写作法》，此法比较古板，给你提供了作文的框架，然后让你去填充内容。但是，对于新手，是一个不错的入门方法。
3、 每天坚持写作，满分校园托福每天会有一篇题库中的作文，包括范文，供大家集体写作交流使用。应坚持每天写一篇有题目的文章，每周至少练习一篇。日积月累，自己的写作能力一定会有质的飞跃。
4、 如果你有写日记的习惯，可以开始坚持用英文写作。
关于“背”：
托福不考背诵，但是，在备考的过程中，背诵无疑起到关键的作用，对写作、阅读、听力，都有作用。 这里的背诵，不是一个单词一个单词的背诵，而是在大声阅读的基础上，达到熟悉的程度，这种作用，是一种潜移默化的作用，是提高英语语感的作用，对托福考试的语法题、阅读题、写作题都有作用。
美国著名报纸、杂志上的时文。这个和之前提到的背诵，起到互补的作用。中国80年代的文章和现在的文章，肯定有差别。所以，背诵著名报纸、杂志上的时文，对于现代美语的体会，会更深一些。
● 关于词汇：
本身词汇量的要求。(词汇要达到一定数量，学会积累)
1、 总体词汇要求
2、 托福专门词汇

托福写作真题题目：
2016年10月29日托福写作题目：
It’s more important to use your own knowledge and experience than ask others’ knowledge and experience to solve problems.
托福写作范文参考:
2016年10月29日托福写作范文：
People tend to respond to problems differently given the fact that personalities may vary among different individuals. When it comes to the question of whether or not to solve the problem based on one’s own experience and knowledge or solicit others advice, I tend to believe that it really depends on the nature of the problem and we can not draw a definitive line here.
On the one hand, a rookie without any experience in a particular field can learn a great deal of knowledge and develop useful skills when learning from an experienced individual. For instance, when my father taught me how to ride a bike, I remember his experience and knowledge were extremely useful. My father sat me on the paddle with one feet hanging in the air, and I hold the handlebar straight and bent my arms a little bit so that I could keep balance. After my dad’s instruction and guidance，eventually I learned how to ride a bike. Also, in a working environment, the knowledge and experience of senior employees can be very helpful for someone who hold junior positions in the company. The expertise of senior workers have proven from time to time that a certain strategy of business operation cannot be paralleled by any other approach. Indeed, a recent study done by the National Society of Organizational Behavior indicates that one enjoys a better chance to be successful in his professional life if he gets intensive coaching and training from senior managers during the first two years of his job. Consequently, we can conclude that on some occasions it is beneficial for someone to capitalize on others’ experience and knowledge.
On the other hand, for problems, setbacks or major decisions that have a significant impact on the individual’s life, it is not rational to be influenced by others’ opinions and perspectives. For example, when you have big decisions like which university to attend or whether or not taking on a new career path, it is far better for you to figure it out and sort it through by yourself other than solicit the advice from others. Above all, nobody knows you better than yourself. You are the one who needs to live with the decision and other people won’t be the ones with the consequence. Frankly, it takes a lot of courage to stand up and take personal responsibility for your own decision. Any decision made out of assertiveness and confidence should be respected, however, nobody shows any respect to those who are wishy-washy and hesitate to make their own decisions.
In conclusion, we cannot readily draw a definitive line on question of is it better to use your own knowledge and experience than ask others’ knowledge and experience to solve problems since it has has to be examined case by case.

Do you agree or disagree: The movies are worth watching only if they can teach something in real life.

2016年5月28日托福独立写作范文
No matter who you are, you are definitely in a dire need for excitement and thrill. Then, a controversy might appear among the public whether citizens should only watch those movies that can teach something in real life. Some of you may only watch those movies that can help to expand one’s knowledge and reveal the life stories, however, I strongly disagree with the statement and I think there will be a variety of reasons to watch movies.
Initially, entertainment is the principle reason for the entire world watching movies. Be it comedy, science-fiction, drama or action, movies are a medium of leisure and recreation for every single individual ranging from those on streets to the high and mighty residents in penthouses. Put it in another words, the greatest of all benefits of watching a movie is that it entertains you and calms your tumultuous heart down. Take me as an example. I feel very tired after the full devotion to my career in a week and there is no time for the gym and outdoor activities just because of the busy work schedules. Then, I will choose to lie on my couch and watch movies of many kinds with a bowl of munchies like popcorns and sodas during the weekends. By being engrossed in a comedy show that can evoke hearty laughs, I will encounter situations with a positive frame of mind. Besides, when watching the horror movies, I will feel excited, scared, and emotional during those two and a half hours, leading me to be transferred to a world far away from the reality. Obviously, no matter what kind of movies they are, they will be worth watching if they can entertain you.
Another general concern about movies is that they can help fasten the bonds between families. More often than not, what audiences are more focused on, during the process of watching movies, is the time they spend with their families rather than the well-orchestrated plots or the life lessons they might disclose. Current citizens can afford to spend too much time having fun like traveling around the city or having a party because most of them are under huge pressure from the society and most of their time has to be occupied by a variety of professional tasks. However, watching movies won’t consume too much time, serving as a stress buster and lubricant to strengthen relationship with families. Almost at every weekend, I will hang out with my girlfriend to watch movies whatever the genre is and staying with each other at that moment can help shorten our mental distance and we can just hold hands of each other and feel so close between us. Accordingly, my personal experience can help explain how we spend with our families or lovers like watching movies matters more than what we can learn from the movies.
In a word, I don’t think only those movies that tell us important life stories are worth watching. What I truly believe is those movies that can entertain audiences and provide viewers with a chance to stay with each other are more welcomed.
托福写作模板:演艺明星的高薪
2016年托福写作真题题目：
Some famous athletes and entertainers ern millions of dollars every year. Do you think these people deserve such high salaries? Use specific reasons and examples to support your opinion.
托福写作范文：
Nowadays, the annual incomes of many sports stars and film stars come to millions of dollars. Some people claim that their salaries are too high. Yet, in my opinion, such salaries are well deserved. They work hard to become famous, provide entertainment for us, and win honors for their countries.
First, famous athletes and entertainers make painstaking efforts to achieve fame. Fame is a wonderful thing to have, but it seldom appears overnight. Famous people have worked hard for years to achieve their fame today and they have to continue their good work to maintain it. For their hard work, sports and entertaining stars deserve to be generously rewarded. Unfortunately, people tend to focus on the huge amounts of money made by them. They rarely appreciate the efforts that athletes and entertainers have to make in order to achieve the fame that they have today. For example, in order to win the first place in a 100-meter dash, an athlete has to cover hundreds of miles during training. Famous stars deserve their high salaries because they have worked hard.
Second, sports and entertaining stars provide us with good entertainment. On weekends, many of us attend a football match that includes Beckham, see a movie that stars Julia Roberts, or go to a concert that features Celine Dion. These people help us make good use of our free time by entertaining us. As a result, we feel inspired as well as relaxed. In other words, we feel energetic again after attending the events. We even feel that we have more to enjoy in life and have new aspirations. For such reasons, these people are worth their high salaries.
Third, athletes and entertainers win honors for their countries. For example, after four years’ hard work, many athletes win gold medals at the Olympics Games. They are able to make millions of dollars a year after the games. Such high salaries are justified, because these athletes have won honors for their countries in the most competitive arena and have made their people proud, something few people can even dream of. This is true for entertainers as well. Many actors and actresses receive high salaries after they have won Oscars or prizes at Cannes Films Festival. Those people also deserve high salaries, because they have made a name in films for their country and have made their country better known by people elsewhere in the world.
All in all, famous athletes and entertainers merit their high salaries, for their hard work, entertainment they provide, and their contribution to their country. If I had a chance, I would be a famous star who can make millions of dollars a year.
