托福满分作文-范文赏析:
The world over, education is the epitome of a prosperous country. However, the system and ways of educating are becoming complicated as many people try to forge out what would be the meritorious way of remedying the quality of education at universities. It is a common outcry that professors' salaries being augmented is one of the cardinal solutions to improving the quality of education. These are custodians of knowledge to whom students look up to for better performance so as to have a good career in life. I do partake that it actually holds water to increase professors’ salaries.
It is prudent to say that professors being the main tap of knowledge for students need to have a contented heart to impart knowledge, and one of the ways of being gratified is to hike their pay. In fact, a horde of professors that are paid less do not have the urge of teaching students as teaching itself is meant to be, but teach because it is the only likelihood of earning something. In many countries, professors eat by the hand, and are evoked into doing jobs outside their normal teaching schedule. In this way, there is little preparation for lectures and at the end, performances are in a worrying state. To come to terms with the increasing standard of living so as to avoid such behavior, professors should earn a substantial fee.
Suffice to say, the world is changing at a supersonic speed and the professors are not an exception in that they need to move with the blowing trend by taking upgrading courses so as to meet the requirements of the education system. For example, the education system is becoming advanced with different technologies. Numerous disciplines at university need upgrading in the way of teaching, not to mention the content to teach. Traditional ways of teaching are wading and becoming a myth. The only way for professors to acquire updated information is to have a higher pay that can enable them to be at par with the changing education trends. Only through an increased pay can professors make good research towards elevating their knowledge and adjusting to the new trends of education.
Today, many a person is shunning away from the education field because many careers now do offer a hefty package. This has bred a shortage of virtuous professors in many countries as the few that join do join as a last resort to enable them warm their pockets. Many university students take on other majors like accountancy and technological fields than education because they are more enticing than lecturing. Lecturing is becoming a career for students that are deemed failures in other fields. To revive the career, and to have more qualified professors to attain quality education, professors ought to pocket a reasonable amount of money so as to entice the gem among students to join the profession.
By and large, though I do believe that other solutions do carry water, like enhancing school facilities and awarding scholarships, it is common sense to know that all these will also rotate around a professor as students can hardly accomplish tasks in different fields without the help of professors. With no doubt, increasing professors' pay is the primal solution to consummating noble education, for it molds them into contentment so as to prepare well for their lectures, it entices refulgent students and above all, accords them the possibility of improving themselves academically.
托福作文满分要素剖析:
一、语言表达
本文多用长句,句子当中使用了不少插入语,因此句子虽然篇幅较长但是逻辑比较清晰。值得一提的是本文的用词。全篇的用词都非常精致,多次使用了各种高级的
1. It is a common outcry that professors' salaries being augmented is one of the cardinal solutions to improving the quality of education. 作者使用了it is … that的句式,有效地避免了句子头重脚轻的情况出现,值得借鉴。而且作者的用词非常好。outcry 反抗;augment 增加;cardinal 最好的。这些都是常见用法的高级替代。我们可以在文章中借鉴使用。
2. Suffice to say, the world is changing at a supersonic speed and the professors are not an exception in that they need to move with the blowing trend by taking upgrading courses so as to meet the requirements of the education system. suffice to say表示“我们可以这样说”,也可以用it is suffice to say that来替代。in that表示因为后面到底部分是一个原因状语从句。by 表方式。so as to 表示目的。用词方面,supersonic本意超音速的,此处表示很快。blowing trend表示快速的变化。
3. To revive the career, and to have more qualified professors to attain quality education, professors ought to pocket a reasonable amount of money so as to entice the gem among students to join the profession. revive表示复兴,两个to之间是并列的都表目的。pocket名词作动词表示收到。entice吸引。gem本意表示宝石,此处是优秀人才的意思。
二、逻辑结构
本文是总分总的结构。首段提出了观点,教授应该涨工资。中间提出了并列的三条分论点,教授作用重要、需要紧跟潮流和吸引优秀人才。最后总结了观点,收束全文。
网温馨提醒:考生们拿到托福作文试题,审题后,先决定总体思路,然后列出两三个具体的分论点,每个论点找出一些例子来说明。这里要注意例子的选择,尽可能生活化、生动化、形象化,不要太死板,
