Thesis 总论点
Algae fuel is problematic
Algae fuel is feasible
Sub-point 1
分论点1
The planting of algae wastes farmland and usable water, which may lead to food shortage
Algae are very adaptive and can survive anywhere. They can even grow in dirty water and unfertile land. They will not compete with the crop for the growing land.
Sub-point2
分论点2
Equipment for extracting oil from algae is expensive.
The growing speed of algae is very fast, almost 20 times of that of the corn. They can be gathered every week, which means the cost can be quickly compensated.
Sub-point 3
分论点3
Algae require a large amount of carbon dioxide provided by farmer intentionally to grow. When the unused carbon dioxide is released into the atmosphere, it is detrimental to the environment.
Carbon dioxide can be gathered from factories, which in turn tackles the problem of waste gas emission and alleviate the environmental problem.
2016年8月20日托福写作范文Sample answer:
In the lecture, the professor refutes against the view raised in the reading that algae fuel is problematic, and he think it is very feasible.
Firstly, the reading holds that the planting of algae wastes farmland and usable water, which may lead to food shortage. However, the professor refutes that Algae are very adaptive and can survive anywhere. They can even grow in dirty water and unfertile land. They will not compete with the crops for the growing land.
Secondly, the reading claims that equipment for extracting oil from algae is expensive. But the professor disagrees with this by suggesting that the growing speed of algae is very fast, almost 20 times of that of the corn. They can be gathered every week, which means the cost can be quickly compensated.
Finally, in the reading passage, it indicates that algae require a large amount of carbon dioxide provided by farmer intentionally to grow. When the unused carbon dioxide is released into the atmosphere, it is detrimental to the environment. In contrast, the professor holds that carbon dioxide can be gathered from factories, which in turn tackles the problem of waste gas emission and alleviate the environmental problem.

作文题目：Do you agree or disagree with the following statement: Taking a lot of time to make an important decision is often considered as a bad quality for a person. However, some people think that it is a good quality for a person.
题型类别：同不同意类
题材类别：利弊类
写作思路：花很多时间做重要决定就意味着我们“自己”会思考更多时间，更去听取“别人”意见。这么想的思路就快了。
写作指导：
是好的品质:
1.花长时间去做决定可以让自己更清楚这样的决定是否正确。人都是比较冲动的动物，很多时候在外界的刺激下会快速作出不理性的决定，之后都往往会非常后悔。我自己就是个很好的例子，我自己一个人在逛商场的时候看中一件衣服经常就会很干脆地买，结果常常是回到家就后悔买了这件衣服，在镜子在站久了思考多了后，才会更清楚意识到它的颜色或者款式其实不是很适合我。
2.更多的思考时间也意味着我们更有机会去寻求和听取他人的意见。一个人的思想总是有局限的，并且常常可能是不客观的。但是他人可以给我们不同的视角并且更客观，这些对我们的决定有启发性或者使我们更换决定。例如在条件允许的情况下，我都会尽量找几个朋友一起去买东西，让他们给我建议，在这样情况我买的东西之后都很少后悔。
3. 让步段：诚然，有时快速做决定可以更好的抓住机遇，但是我认为在现在这么复杂的社会背景下，谨慎的态度才可以让我们更好的规避风险。
