　　新托福寫作考試 點評：

　　本次托福獨立寫作是兒童教育類，新題，但也是傳統(tǒng)的兒童教育類，意思是你認為要跟小孩分享的事情最重要的是哪一個，第一是要讓他們生活有條理，第二是要誠實，第三是要樂于助人，典型的三選一題型，還是用上課時候講過的文章結(jié)構(gòu)和方法去寫作即可，可以兩段支持段加一段反證段，也可以一段支持段加兩段反證段，靈活使用即可。這里選擇第一個。

　　首先，being organized是他們今后獨立生活的必備能力。其實現(xiàn)在很多孩子的小時候的生活都是父母在安排，孩子只要被動的接受并且執(zhí)行，其實沒有自己的想法，而這則會使他們對父母產(chǎn)生過度的依賴，會對他們獨立生活會產(chǎn)生消極影響，導(dǎo)致自己無法自理生活，而如果從小就學(xué)習(xí)如何能夠井井有條的安排自己的生活的話，他們以后就可以自己很獨立很好的生活。

　　其次，being organized能減輕他們以后生活和學(xué)習(xí)的壓力。其實，現(xiàn)在很多學(xué)生都有拖延癥，就是因為不會安排自己的時間，導(dǎo)致拖到最后自己壓力很大，這甚至到high-level education還會發(fā)生，所以being organized是一種管理生活和學(xué)習(xí)的能力，能夠考慮好每件事情要做的時間點，知道在正確時間做正確的事情，這樣的話不僅可以按時完成自己的學(xué)習(xí)或者工作任務(wù)，還可以讓自己的生活壓力減緩很多。

　　另外，being honest雖然也很重要，但其實在今后的生活中，一個人是很難保持百分之百誠實的，因為有一些場合是需要說謊的，比如說有些善意的謊言，而且在某些情況下，誠實反而會冒犯到他人，比如直接指出他人的缺陷或者短處，所以說孩子應(yīng)該要在自己的生活和社交過程中去體會如何在不冒犯他人的情況下去保持誠實，這是在他們小時候可能無法理解的事情，這是需要時間去磨練和積累的。當然，being helpful也是一個很重要的品質(zhì)，但同樣地，幫助他人也要看情況，不能一味的幫助他們，這樣的話有時候使得他人對自己產(chǎn)生過度的依賴，反而對他們的能力產(chǎn)生負面效果。而這些也是孩子在小時候難以學(xué)習(xí)的道理。

　　新托福獨立寫作范文一:

　　The traditional virtue of honesty in all situations is increasingly doubted by many in today’s world. Many believe that being honest is not always the best policy when dealing with people and shall not be shared with children. Be that as it may, this essay will explore the importance of being honest in relationships between people.

　　Undeniably, Sharing values of being honest exposes children to the cruel world. We all understand that often the truth is offending and may not be a very nice thing to both hear or say. Even, many would agree that if a company is to tell the absolute truth about it’s products, no one would be interested in even having a look at the products. The same logic also applies to human relationships. if your friend had worn a newly purchased dress on her birthday and energetically asked you if it was a worthy buy, would you freely express your opinion that you had never seen a dress as the one she’s currently wearing? and spoil her birthday? unarguably, hiding(entirely or particularly) the truth in some situations can be quite handy indeed. confrontations and disputes can seemingly be avoided.

　　However, there is always the risk factor of the truth emerging sooner or later when telling an untruth. the basic trust in any relationships friends,parents and children will be blotched, and would have an impact on the future relationship between both parties. the story of the “the boy who cried wolf” fully illustrates the consequences of telling lies. no one will believe you when you’re telling the truth. Therefore, after presenting the value of honesty to children, they will avoid falling in the dilemma.

　　In addition, another “bad factor” of telling untruths is that you have absolutely no control over when the truth will emerge. untruths breed pain in both parties: tears when the truth is uncovered after a period of time; in the long run, it seems that hiding the truth is not beneficial to either party. In contrast, delivering the value of being honest to children, children will have no worries of fearing the truth to be exposed. Therefore, the life will be easier than those choosing to cover up the secrets.

　　Everyone hates betrayal. even if it is the trend to occasionally hide the truth in relationships, it is strongly recommended that not to follow that trend as the risk and the consequences of the truth unfolded overwhelms the minimal advantages one can derive from not telling the truth. After all, it is understood that relationships are founded on “trust” which goes hand in hand with “truth”. Indeed honesty is the most important consideration in any relationship between people. As a result, this value should be shared greatly
