新托福独立写作思路解析

1 朋友之间也需要善意的谎言
2 人们会保护隐私
品质类话题中,关于“诚实”的题目是考过若干次的!
TPO2

Do you agree or disagree with the following statement?
Honesty is the most important characteristic to a leader.

Do you agree or disagree with the following statement?
People should state their honest opinions even though they know others might disagree with them.
等等...
如上TPO中和以前考过的题目这些题目都涉及到了being honest的优势,比如只有诚实才能做到公平公正;只有诚实才能在跟人相处过程中感情越来越深厚等等。当然,不诚实也有不诚实的道理,来引导大家想一下,朋友问你什么时候,你是否会全部诚实的说出来?
想想那种不愿说出的事情:比如你的失恋经历,比如你的家人不理解你,再比如你有个怪癖...Anyway,就是你是否有时候为了什么而不全盘托出呢?privacy,很多人都会有比较private的事情,这些事情是不对人说出的,包括朋友;这种涉及到人际关系的话题(对朋友、对家人、对同学、对人脉)都可以从自身和对方两方面来头脑风暴。
那么,对于朋友们,对于他们的言行是涉及到他们的事情,我们就都要诚实的告知或者表达吗?回忆一下,有没有那种关于朋友的事情,自己没有诚实表达观点的时候?比如上回聚会闺蜜穿的那条裙子,或者哥们考试又挂了,再比如朋友的joke并没有很好笑等等,就是你一定随时都诚实么?不诚实的原因和顾虑是什么?有的时候,朋友并不想听实话,或者有时候忠言逆耳,你并不想说出不中听的来,虽然实话对朋友有利。
品质类话题的简单之处就在于:题目跟生活的关联性强——所以,学会联想和回忆很重要;思路方面,一般情况下,都是同不同意都有话说,主要看自己哪方便的语料更多;语言方面,对专业性词汇的要求相对低(针对环境类和政府类话题而言),学生只需选取自己熟悉的形容词和表达即可。
新托福独立写作范文
We can never over emphasis the importance of friends who help us get through hard time and keep us company in daily life. Though it is commonly believed that honesty and mutual trust are essential ingredients for people to maintain friendship in the long run, people usually have justified excuses to lie or encounter various situations under which they have to hide the truth. In fact, to be absolutely honest with friends is impossible.
To begin with, people sometimes tell white lies, in order to protect friends’ feelings and interests. Under certain circumstances, the so-called truth does no good to friends but bring many troubles. At this moment, although friends may appreciate our honesty, they still feel hurt and choose to keep distance with us, as our appearance will remind them the unhappy situation. Gradually, friends become estranged and feel difficult to patch up the relationship. Therefore, to avoid unnecessary frictions, people need white lies. For example, it is unwise to tell a female friend that she has gained weight and does not fit the new dress, if she comes to show her new look happily. The candid comments will severely discourage her confidence or even irritate her if she is sensitive on her appearance. On the contrary, white lies can help her keep positive and if necessary we could advise her to do more exercises to keep fit.
Secondly, people sometimes hide privacy with friends to avoid embarrassment and give themselves an opportunity to forget the past and have a new beginning. Inevitably, people encounter something unpleasant or even disgraceful, such as discomfiture and defeat. When asked by friends about those experiences, people either refuse to answer or make up another story. Furthermore, for some people who have suffered too much, they even move to a new place to start a new life and make new friends. In a new environment that no one knows him or her, the fake but well-meaning introduction of one’s background is therefore acceptable. Take a criminal who gets released from the prison as an example. With no offense, he usually chooses to hide the unmentionable experience behind bars to new friends met in gym in a new city that he tries to settle down.
To sum up, there is almost no unconditional honesty between friends. On the opposite, people need white lies to be in rapport with friends in the long term. Also, there are justified reasons for people to hide truth so as to avoid troubles.
