托福写作如何避免用词“烂大街”？

托福写作中那些已经“滥用”的词汇，是不是令你们很苦恼啊，太基础，得不了高分，别急，小编就是来帮你们解决这个问题的。

想要避开托福写作中那些已经“滥用”的词汇，可以从同义词替换，词性变换，解释扩展三个方面入手。

在已经被学生用烂了的英文单词中，think和important算得上榜首，能够说是被用烂了，简单的避免重复的手段也就是大家在平日要积累些同义词汇进行替换。

大家在写作里可能会经常出现的某人“认为”和某事“很重要”这样的句子，那简单的避免重复的手段也就是平日需要积累些同义词汇进行替换。

例如I think能够替换成是I believe, I hold, I support, I advocate, I sustain等等，记住四五个替换词，在一篇文章中应该就足够用了。

还是上面的例子，important这个单词让学生又爱又恨，爱的是作文里不能没有它，恨的是为何脑子里只有它。

使用同义词替换的话大家能够用crucial, vital, essential等词替换，还可以使用词性变换的方式，将形容词换成名词。

举个例子：Economic development is the most important aspect.

可以把important换成importance, 如果economic development也已经在前面提到过了，还可以把economic development变成develop economy，那么整个句子就变成Developing economy is attached the most importance. 想不出同义词的时候，我们可以试试能不能把中心词的词性变换一下。

如果大家能够对词义或者句意进行解释扩展，效果会更好。

来看例子：To the poor people, organic food is almost a luxury. 这句中的poor，我想替换掉它，又不能想出合适的同义词或者词性变换的方法，我就可以把poor进行扩充。

To those who are burdened with their house loan, who buy clothes in second-hand markets, who fret about their bills, organic food is almost a luxury. 

这句话就变成了对于那些被房贷压得喘不过来气，在二手市场买衣服，为各种账单发愁的人来说，有机食品几乎是奢望。

5. advertisement/ advertising
