　2013年托业考试写作模拟题及范文精选

PR A person you know is planning to move to your town or city do you think this person would like and dislike about living in your town or city? Why? Use specific reasons and details to develop your essay.

A friend of mine from college is moving to my city, so I have been thinking about what she would and wouldn't like about it, I'd say the quality of life here, as far as fun and activities are concerned, is very good. The quality of life isn't very good, though, in other important ways.

Living in a lager city is exciting, but you pay a price for it. There are lots of interesting things to do, and good restaurants with food from around the world. There are museums, art galleries, and lots of movie theaters. However. the crime rate is high, and people have to be careful about where they go at night. There's a lot of traffic most of the time, and finding a parking space can be a problem. There are also a lot of people living here. Sometimes it feels too crowded.

In a big city like mine, housing is very expensive. If costs a lot even if you're just renting an efficiency apartment. The good side is that there's a lot of choice about where you want to live and how you want to live. You can find apartment of all sizes in different settings. Houses of equal variety are available for sale or rent.

If my friend likes the great outdoors, she might be disappointed. Unfortunately, my city doesn't have a lot of wide open green spaces, and there aren't a lot of trees on the streets. We're not near the ocean, and the mountains are a day's drive from here. Still, we do have some natural areas. For example, we have a beautiful big park. It even has a lake in the middle that's used for ice skating in the winter. There's a different kind of beauty in the city.

Thinking about it, I suppose whether my friend likes my city will depend on whether or not she likes exciting places. I hope she likes a lot of variety as far as housing and activities are concerned. If she does, then this is the place for her.

26 AD It has recently been announced that large shopping center may be built in your neighborhood. Do you support or oppose this plan? Why? Use specific reasons and details to support your answer.

There would be both advantages and disadvantages to having a shopping center built in my neighborhood. One advantage would be the convenience. I would like to have all those stores close by. Shopping would be much easier and faster because I wouldn't have to drive great distances to get to the stores.

A shopping center would mean more choices, because there would be more stores selling different products. I might have a movie theater nearby, because so many shopping centers these days include movie theaters in their plans. Most shopping centers also have restaurants and a food court. That means a greater variety of places to eat in our area.

Having a shopping center built in the neighborhood would also mean more jobs for the community. Initially, these jobs would be in the building of the center. Later the jobs would be in the stores, theaters, and food establishments.

Of course, these would be some disadvantages, too. Probably the biggest problem would be traffic. A lot of people would be coming to the shopping center. They'd drive through our neighborhood to get to the center. In addition, if there wasn't enough parking at the center, they might look for parking space near our homes.

A shopping center might also invite more crime into our neighborhood. Parking lots after dark are a big temptation to robbers. They know people are there with money to spend. The shopping center might also become a place where unruly teenagers would gather. This could cause trouble. Our town would need a community center for them to go to instead.

On the whole, though, I think my neighborhood should support having a shopping center built here, It would bring more variety to our shopping, give us the opportunity to amuse ourselves at movies theaters and restaurants, and bring more jobs into the area.

27 AD It has recently been announced that a new movies theater may be built in your neighborhood. Do you support or oppose this plan? Why? Use specific reasons and details to support your answer.

　透析托业难点，寻找高分对策

【特点】题量惊人侧重实用据多数应试者反映，托业考试题目整体来说题量非常之大，重在测试应试者的熟练度和敏感度。其内容偏重于实用性，商业及工作等场景是试题中经常出现的语境。根据美国教育考试服务中心(ETS)的设计思路，托业考试借助大题量测试应考者的英语运用纯熟度。

TOEIC考试内容由听力和阅读两大部分组成，共200道试题，其中听力和其后所有笔试题目各占100道，考试时 间总计120分钟。考试总分为1000分，没有“及格线”，一般来说，大家把600分当作“通过”。在去年12月14日的考试中，全国考生的“通过率”为 69%。【听力】难度高于托福一般说来，在托业考试的听力部分，每道题的间隔大约只有5秒。而相比之下，在托福考试中，每道听力题的间隔大约有8秒。所以考生常会感到题与题之间的间隔很短，必须很快作出反应才能跟上试题的节奏。从时 间长度来看，45分钟的听力测试也是在国内所有语言测试中对这方面能力测试最充分的项目之一。

托业测试的语境非常生活化。例如，在试题中出现了在机场订退票及改签、医院门诊等公众场合常用的一些对话，还有如问路等生活场景。最有特色的是，在考题中还有一些商业广告段落，实用生活性可见一斑。【阅读】考察基础和逻辑能力相对于听力部分，托业考试的阅读部分就相对来说比较“平淡”。其阅读部分三大题型中的语法与改错两部分，难度都不高，主要用于考查应试者英语基础以及逻辑能力。但是，第三部分阅读题就成为了最引人注目的内容了。阅读题最大的特点是其语境的高工作化、商业化，几乎完全是日常生活中所遇所见的场景。在外资企业中工作的职业人士均表示：阅读题中所涉及的语境就是他们日常工作中的内容，所以准备与应对就会游刃有余。这些阅读文章都很简短，长度大约在100个单词以内。但是对于一些在校的学生来说，超大的题量以及与现实生活相去甚远的考题语境，使考试的难度对于他们来说明显加大【对策】提高语言交流能力托业考试与目前国内的其他语言测试存在着明显的差异，它侧重对考生日常生活，工作中语言应用能力的检测，无须做长篇幅的阅读题，甚至不会对考生参加考试的词汇量有明确要求，绝大多数考生均表示生词不多。应该说，托业考试是注重英语实际能力的检测，而不是应试能力的衡量尺度。上海大学的一位老师介绍，在上大就读的日本和韩国的留学生参加考试，听力部分得分普遍较高，而阅读部分则和中国考生相差很多，这也反应了我国英语教学和日韩等国存在明显的差别。

如果考生想在托业考试中取得较好的成绩,就必须改变“应试备考”的学习老套路。TOEIC很难像普通CET四级考试一样，通过大量做练习就能在短时间内提高成绩。上海大学的培训老师表示：TOEIC是一项根植于日常生活的测验，平时通过阅读书籍、网上在线互动学习、听英语新闻、看原版电影以及报纸甚至广告等，利用各种可能的渠道随时进行英语学习。只有真正的语言交流能力提高了，分数才会提高。
