托福独立写作：如何让教育类话题的语言更地道

跟大家分享针对于教育类的话题，如何让你的文章语言更地道更出彩。众所周知，托福考试的写作和口语部分都属于输出型(output)的测试，需要大家自己写出或说出你的理由并解释。但是，输出前一定要做的工作是输入，否则大家再考场上会觉得大脑空空如也，任何有效信息都输出不了。可能有些考生会觉得自己的思维活跃，在考场现场编写也能够完成考试内容。但殊不知，对于一个英语不是母语的考生而言，这样做是非常危险的，因为英汉语言有很多差异，导致大家在考场上临场编写出的理由和解释都非常中式，换句话说就犯了托福写作评分标准中的大忌——语言不地道。

为了帮助大家能够在准备托福考试的初期高效地积累大量的地道语言，笔者在此帮助大家从外文杂志及相关书籍中摘录出大量Native Speaker所写的文章中一些地道的表达，大家可以在平时进行积累，即便在考场上挥笔写出让考官大为称赞的地道文章。从本期开始，笔者会依据不同的话题分类给大家提供相关积累，本期重点推出教育类话题的地道语言。
