這個(gè)月三選一類的題目較多，大家不要忘記比較類題型的核心要點(diǎn)：比較對(duì)象一個(gè)都不能少。但今天我們分析重點(diǎn)的是一道出現(xiàn)頻率相對(duì)較低、但偏題頻率較高的一道一般類獨(dú)立寫(xiě)作題。2021年3月托福寫(xiě)作真題：關(guān)鍵詞要看清。

首先我們來(lái)認(rèn)識(shí)一下這道題。
Do you agree or disagree with the following statement:
Rapid growth in recent years in cities is mostly a positive development to society.
Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer. Be sure to use your own words. Do not use memorized examples.

乍一看是不是覺(jué)得很普通，普通到讓我們瞬間信心大增？城市近些年來(lái)的迅速增長(zhǎng)對(duì)于社會(huì)大體來(lái)說(shuō)是不是一件積極的好事？似乎不論是同意還是反對(duì)都有很多理由關(guān)鍵詞可以脫口而出：經(jīng)濟(jì)、科技、教育、環(huán)境、健康……

但能迅速想到關(guān)鍵詞并不一定意味著你能夠輕松搞定這道題。首先我們來(lái)看一下兩個(gè)中文段落，你覺(jué)得哪個(gè)版本更適合這道題呢？

版本1
城市發(fā)展會(huì)使空氣質(zhì)量惡化。一方面，城市擠滿了高樓大廈，這些大廈會(huì)侵占原本可以用來(lái)綠化的區(qū)域。因此綠色植物對(duì)空氣的凈化作用難以發(fā)揮，從而會(huì)導(dǎo)致城市空氣質(zhì)量下降。另一方面，城市中私家車、巴士等交通數(shù)量龐大，每天都會(huì)排放成千上萬(wàn)噸尾氣，這無(wú)疑會(huì)進(jìn)一步降低城市的空氣質(zhì)量。……

版本2
城市的迅速發(fā)展會(huì)使空氣質(zhì)量惡化。一方面，城市的擴(kuò)張需要建設(shè)很多辦公空間，這導(dǎo)致城市會(huì)被更多高樓大廈擠滿。而且，過(guò)快的發(fā)展速度很可能會(huì)導(dǎo)致綠化工程的速度跟不上，因此綠色植物對(duì)空氣的凈化作用難以發(fā)揮，從而會(huì)導(dǎo)致城市空氣質(zhì)量下降。另一方面，過(guò)快的城市發(fā)展會(huì)導(dǎo)致市中心房?jī)r(jià)陡增，人們無(wú)法負(fù)擔(dān)從而紛紛逃往較偏遠(yuǎn)的郊區(qū)，因而上下班通勤、日常出行都會(huì)更依賴私家車、巴士等交通工具，which會(huì)排放成千上萬(wàn)噸尾氣，這無(wú)疑會(huì)進(jìn)一步降低城市的空氣質(zhì)量。……

乍一看這兩個(gè)版本區(qū)別不大，但是比較之下我們會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)版本2有充分回應(yīng)題干中的“rapid growth”，版本1其實(shí)論證的是“城市中國(guó)空氣質(zhì)量很糟糕。”

所以審題一定要看清關(guān)鍵詞，再簡(jiǎn)短的題干也不要掉以輕心。
