（二）语句集中训练营

具备了基本词汇之后，考生应该立即着手语句的训练；当然两者结合复习也是一个不错的互补的方法。也就是在背诵单词的同时，将单词进行结合运用扩充成语句，加入各式高分句式。但是若单纯从语句角度出发，考生在保证托福独立写作中语句不出错的同时，还应尽力提升语句的优美度与吸引力，如：越来越多刚刚毕业的大学生发现找到好工作是越来越难，此句几乎所有有一定英语基础的同学均能顺利地完成，但是差距肯定是不难发现的，如用more and more来表现越来越多还是用increasing number of来形容，或者是会出现… is difficult 还是使用it is 句型等。笔者按照此句翻译的不同等级，由低到高进行排列：

More and more college graduates who have just graduated from university find that finding a good job is more and more difficult.

A growing number of fresh graduates find that obtaining a decent job is increasingly difficult.

A growing number of fresh graduates find that being employed by a decent employer is increasingly difficult.

The difficulty of being employed by a decent employer is on the rise, as the number of fresh graduates grows.

除此之外，要想在新托福独立写作中抓住考官的注意力，结合进高级表达方式是必不可少的。即使是简短的简单句，也要能写出精彩的表达；朗阁海外考试研究中心的专家建议考生们运用“变化主语”的方式来达到效果。如：在过去20年里，人们的沟通方式发生了巨大的变化。运用此方法就可以分别写出以人们为主语的句子：People communicated with others through various ways in the past 20 years. 也可以写出以方式为主语的句子：The way of communication changed a lot/ greatly in the past 2 decades; 以变化为主语：The huge change in people’s communication method took place in the past 20 years; 此外，还可以以时间为主语得出：The past 20 years witnessed a huge change in people’s communication type. 如此一来，平淡无奇也完全可以变为神奇。

而且还要学会用不同的句式来表达同一个意思的语句，一定要牢记多样性的要求。除了会写多彩的简单句之外，巧妙运用表示各种关系的连接词所达到的关系句也是十分推荐的。只需要在两个简单句中间加入关系词，如：as a result of, due to, despite, even though, however等（此类连词需要考生牢牢熟悉并掌握，不仅可以用于句式，更能放入文章，完成连贯性极高的结构）。
