At universities and colleges, sports and social activities are just as important as classes and libraries and should receive equal financial support.Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.高分范文So

2、me people claim that universities and colleges should not spend a great deal of money on sports and social activities,as their budgets should prioritize classes and libraries. However, as educational institutions, universities and colleges have an obligation to provide a wide range of knowledge to t

3、heir students to help them develop academically and socially. More and more businesses require people who are not only specialists in their fields, but also skilled in social interaction.In the rapidly changing environments of science and the economy, no task can be done by a single person. Given th

4、e needfor collaboration, social skills and team spirit are necessary qualities for any successful person. Clearly, sports and social activities in universities and colleges provide students with the perfect settings to practice their social skills. By playing football on a team or joining in a prote

Aside from fostering social skills and team spirit, sports and social activities can greatly improve students efficiency.Students need not play sports

6、or participate in social activities at the expense of their academic study. Indeed, for some students, playing sports and joining in social activities are good stress reducers. Even the most enthusiastic people feel tired if they concentrate on one thing for too long. Frustrated and tired people can

7、 do nothing well if they do not recover from their bad situations. Students who have been frustrated in their academic work would be well-advised to play some sports or join in social activities. Academic education will always be at the heart of a university. In universities, sports and social activ

8、ities should by no means take the place of a focus on academic study. What I believe is that universities and colleges should spend adequate money on academics as well as sports and social activities. For instance, in the United States, almost all famous universities haveplenty of sports teams and s

9、ocial groups, and universities provide adequate financial support with these events. None of these universities have weakened their academic standards because of social movements or sports. For these reasons, I maintain that universities and colleges should spend enough money on academic education a

Some computer games that can be played on the Internet were devised by foreign companies. Playing these games gives children an excellent opportunity to communicate with “game fri

Always telling the truth is the most important consideration in any relationship between people.Use specific reasons and examples to supp

12、ort your answer.高分范文 （范文一） There are certain considerations or factors that everyone takes into account in a relationship. People may look for honesty, altruism, understanding, loyalty, being thoughtful etc! Everyone would more or less wish that the person s/he is dealing with, has some of these vir

13、tues above. Putting them in an order according to their importance, however can be very subjective and relative.When someone asks him/herself the question “What do I consider to be the most important thing in my relationship?” the answer depends on a lot of factors such as how his/her earlier relati

14、onships were.After stating that everyones opinion can be different about this, for me honesty, in other words, always telling the truth is the most important consideration in a relationship. Opposite of this is inarguably lying and if someone needs to lie, either s/he is hiding something or is afrai

15、d of telling me something.In any relationship of mine, I would wish that first of all, the person Im dealing with is honest. Even though s/he thinks that s/he did something wrong that I wouldnt like, s/hed better tell me the truth and not lie about it. Later on if I find out about a lie or hear the

16、truth from someone else, thatd be much more unpleasant. In that case how can I ever believe or trust that person again? How can I ever believe that this person has enough confidence in me to forgive him/her and carry on with the relationship from there. So if I cannot trust a person anymore, if the

17、person doesnt think I can handle the truth, theres no point to continuing that relationship.Although I would like to see altruistic, understanding, thoughtful and loyal behavior from people, an instance of the opposite of these behaviors would not upset me as much as dishonesty would. Among all the

18、possible behaviors, dishonesty is the only one for me that terminates how I feel about a persons reliability. Therefore honesty would be my first concern and the most important consideration in a relationship.Raters CommentsIn this response the writer first approaches the topic by underscoring that

19、a number of character traits are important to a relationship. The writer then effectively develops an argument that unlike other negative behaviors, dishonesty or unwillingness to fully disclose some bad action cannot be forgiven and can be the most important factor in destroying a relationship. The

20、 writers language is fluent, accurate, and varied enough to effectively support the progression and connection of ideas. There is a variety of sentence structures, including rhetorical questions. The essay is not mechanically perfect, but as long as such errors are occasional, minor, and do not inte

21、rfere with the readers understanding, an essay like this one can still earn a top score.高分范文 （范文二） The traditional virtue of telling the truth in all situations is increasingly doubted by many in todays world. Many believe that telling the truth is not always the best policy when dealing with people

22、. Moreover, the line of a “truth” is becoming more and more vague. This essay will explore the importance of telling the truth in relationships between people. We all understand that often the truth is offending and may not be a very nice thing to both hear or say. Lies or white lies often have thei

23、r advantages. The manipulation of white lies is the most obvious the business world. How many times have we heard that some product is “the finest” or “the cheapest”? how many times have we heard that products have such and such “magical functions”? advertising is about persuasion, and many would ag

24、ree that if a company is to tell the absolute truth about its products, no one would be interested in even having a look at the products. The same logic 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,

25、 would you freely express your opinion that you had never seen a dress as the one shes currently wearing? And spoil her birthday? Unarguably, hiding (entirely or particially) the truth in some situations can be quite handy indeed. Confrontations and disputes can seemingly be avoided. However, there

26、is always the risk factor of the truth emerging sooner or later when telling an untruth. The basic trust in any relationships (businessman/customer, friends, parents/children) will be blotched, and would have an impact on the future relationship between both parties. The story of the “the boy who cr

27、ied wolf” fully illustrates the consequences of telling untruths. No one will believe you when youre telling the truth. Your word will have no weighting. In addition, another “bad factor” of telling untruths is that you have absolutely no control over when the truth (of previous untruths) will emerg

28、e. Untruths breed pain in both parties: tears when the truth is uncovered after a period of time; fear and the burden of sharing a “secret”. In the long run, it seems that hiding the truth is not beneficial to either party. Everyone hates betrayal. Even if it is the trend to occasionally hide the tr

29、uth 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 h

30、and with “truth”. Indeed telling the truth is the most important consideration in any relationship between people. Always. Raters comment This lengthy essay presents a clear and very well-developed discussion of the issue. There are occasional instances of poor phrasing (“the line of a truth is beco

31、ming more and more vague”), but these are more than offset by the rest of the response, which is fluent, varied, complex, and sophisticated. Again, the only noticeable fault is the failure to capitalize sentence-initial words. 托福TPO3 独立写作题目（新朋友VS老朋友） Do you agree or disagree with the following state

32、ment?It is more important to keep your old friends than it is to make new friends.Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.Sample Response: In the following essay I would like to express my opinion in regard to the thesis “It is more important to keep your old friends than it is to m

33、ake new fiends” On the one hand, you could always say that making new friends is a lot more entertaining than keeping in touch with the old ones.There are new topics to talk about, new activities to do together, new personality traits to discover. Additionally, you also get to meet the persons who a

34、re close to your new friends. And maybe you will even receive a whole group of new friends by making one new friend.However, you could also say that it makes much more sense to keep in touch with your old friends since they are your true friends. Firstly, you already know how they react to certain s

35、ituations and therefore you know how to treat them to get along well. Secondly, I am of the conviction that it is certain that in a bit more peculiar and maybe a bit unpleasant situations it is a lot more likely that your old friends will help you out than that someone you have met barely a week ago

36、 would do the same. Though I have to admit that I personally came to the conclusion that I need my old friends as well as my new friends. For me they are both equally important. I adore keeping in touch with my old friends and knowing how they will react in most situations. Of course, over the years

37、 some sort of bond and a special kind of trust has developed with my long-time friends. However, I immensely enjoy making new friends as well. I enjoy trying out new activities and making new friends there. Furthermore, I like making friends from all kinds of different cultures and countries. And I

38、am certain that this kind of attitude makes life much more interesting. Plus, I believe that new friends will also broaden your horizon because their beliefs may differ from your own. Personally, I am convinced that nobody has to decide between old friends and new friends since the possibility of ke

39、eping the old friends and making new ones always exists. Therefore as a final statement I would like to say Cherish you old fiends and enjoy making new ones as well .-324 words- Description of Response: This essay does a good job responding to the topic by developing benefits of both making new frie

40、nds and keeping old friends, ending with the conclusion that they are of equal importance and that there is no reason to have to choose. In this essay, the level of vocabulary is not as sophisticated as would be typical in a top-rated essay, but there is some very good grammatical complexity display

41、ed and vocabulary is used accurately.托福TPO4独立写作题目（未来车辆减少） Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? In twenty years there will be fewer cars in use than there are today. Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.Sample Responses:At first I would say I disagree with the st

42、atement according to which the use of cars would decrease in the following twenty years. Indeed, the worlds population is expected to grow drastically in the next decades. Population in Western countries is likely to grow at the same pace it is growing today, but the most important contribution to t

43、he global population growth will certainly come from developing countries. And to my opinion, a growth in the use of cars will accompany this growth in population. People in developed countries are largely accustomed to using cars, therefore a great change in habits would be needed to curb the growt

44、h in cars use. Moreover, studies show that people live further and further from their work place, and therefore have to use their car more often. As for developing countries, a rapid economic growth is expected to go along with population growth in a good deal of countries. These countries are likel

45、y to reach the development level of Western countries within the next couple of decades. Unless these countries can develop their own pattern, which I doubt, they will use more and more cars.Nevertheless, some hope remains that the growth in the use of cars can be slowed in the future. People and go

46、vernments are becoming more and more aware of environmental issues linked to the use of cars, and some experiments aiming at reducing it have been conducted in some places (e.g. the toll in the London downtown, or the alternate circulation in Paris on high pollution rate days). Although these measur

47、es certainly have a positive effect on pollution and traffic. I dont think theyre viable in the long run. To curb environmental problems linked to cars, the only solution is to develop new clean technologies. This way pollution rates would drop, but we would still use more and more cars. So as for t

48、raffic In big cities In twenty years. Im very pessimistic!-324 words-Description of Response:This is a well-developed, well-organized response largely giving detailed reasons for disagreeing with the issue as stated. A great variety of sentence structures and vocabulary is displayed and good progres

49、sion of ideas is evident.托福TPO5独立写作题目Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? People today spend too much time on personal enjoyment-doing things they like to do-rather than doing things they should do.Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.Sample Responses: The above

50、 statement poses a hot topic on contradiction of peoples personal enjoyments and responsibilities. And the speaker tends to think people now are dedicating more on personal likeness than on what they should do. I strongly disagree with this opinion because I think that to pursue ones individual enjo

51、yment does not contradict to assume the responsibility. Admittedly, people nowadays increasingly enjoy freedom to pursue personal enjoyment than before. As the development of democracy, the ideas and behaviors of individual are respected and encouraged to some extent. For instance, students can choo

52、se any major which they favor mostly; graduates can participate in whatever professions they are interested in; citizens possess absolute freedom on free press and behaviors they like. Briefly, people have much time and freedom to do their favorite things. However, spending much time on personal enj

53、oyment does not indicate that people ignore their accountability which should be taken. Lets take a college student in art for example. Generally, students in art major should spend much time on reading and appreciating art history, biography of artists and art works. Yet, the student favors more on

54、 economics. He probably continues to earn his degree on art with great interest in economic as well. Or he may pursue a second degree on economics. No matter what his decision is, he takes his responsibility to become a worthy student of his major. In addition, to pursue ones personal enjoyment help

55、 to assume the responsibility. People should not be blamed for their time spent on things they like. Obviously, people lived in an time teemed with tense competition and they are often under a huge pressure. After a whole day job or a period of work, you probably make yourself drunk, or go for shopp

56、ing crazily, or bury yourself in a series of insane music, or whatsoever you prefer. Of course you are most likely to become relaxed and inspired through these favorite experience. Eventually, the great physical and mental recreation is conducive to a better performance in your profession the next d

57、ay. To sum up, it is unreasonable to separate apart what people like to do and what they should do. The pursuit on personal enjoyment and assumption on accountability are interwoven. They do not contradict to each other. The effort and time on personal enjoyment does not equal to the ignorance on pe

58、oples responsibility because of the objective requirement from each identity. Moreover, personal hobbies are good catalyst for improvement on the original professions.托福TPO6独立写作题目 Do you agree or disagree with the following statement?Life today is easier and more comfortable than it was when your gr

59、andparents were children. Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.Sample Responses:（范文一） Life is always difficult and the hardship appears in different aspects under different backgrounds. For our grandparents, people had to strive for raising several children with thin income. Nowa

60、days, we have to keep track with the high pace of the society. In the past year, the food was inadequate and the salary was low. In order to cultivate several children, adults had to find additional work to make up thin payment. Thehuge pressure from living drove them to eat and wear simply. I was o

61、ften told that my grandparents merely had rice for dinner without any vegetables, let alone meat. To reduce the burden of their families, our grandparents went to work earlier, some of them were even immature. When they received money, they did nothing but to make an informed arrangement on how to s

62、pend it. For example, the daily necessities, the electronic bill, phone bill and the tuition of younger kids were all needed to be taken into account. Thats why they seldom bought themselves new clothes and had some entertainment. Furthermore, in most families, the younger children had to wear the c

63、lothes from their brothers and sisters only because they could not afford the new ones. At that time, grandparents had no choices but to squeeze the expense every day for the preparation for the New Year. It was their effort that resulted in our relative happier life today. However, nowadays we also have to face infinite stress from the highly developed society. Admittedly, we are not that poor as our grandparents, yet the difficulties of our age never fade next to theirs. Actually, the fierce competition provides us with narrow chance to escape but to work hard, even
