前 言
The intended audience for this collection of TOEFL Writing Task 2 sample essays comprises two types of readers: those with presumed scores on the above section of twenty-two and over but short of their goal, and those coming back around to the TOEFL from higher-level examsthe SAT, ACT, GRE, GMAT, for instancebearing a grudge.
All are orthodox five-paragraph essays on the order of five hundred words. This fact alone removes them from being deployed as templates for most humans, the author included. Add to this that the topics have been chosen for their particular difficulty and rendered in a variety of organizational patterns, points of view, styles, voices and it becomes apparent they are offered here, not as models, but storehouses for the reader to do with as seems best.
The two editors at Dogwood set my mind at ease with their professional yet warm-hearted direction and advice every step of the way to publication. A deep bow of gratitude goes out to the two professional voice artists generously arranged for by the editors to bring these essayswarts and allto life and to their in-house proofreader whose keen eye for error turned my face into a stoplight more than once. Thank you all.
I am indebted to all the staff and teachers in the Sichuan Province, Chengdu branch of New Oriental for making me welcome. Without their patience handling the aggravations of my visa [Mss. Gao 高 and Huang 黄] and kind instruction anddirection [Ms. Ma 马, Ms. Wei 委, Cecily, and Depthbomb], I dare not think where I would be. Thanks in particular go to my superiorsMr. Liu Qingwen 刘清文 Chengdu Branch Chief, Mr. Zhang Kui 张魁 Overseas Testing Department Director, and Ms. Li Zhen 李祯 Head Teacherfor having the faith to pull me out of the classroom long enough to complete and proof this. I stand ever indebted to the three of you. Most of all, I extend my gratitude to Paul Tang 唐盛 whose idea this book wasmy teacher, supervisor, and friend for hiring me, pushing me, and letting me go. Mistakes herein of whatever kind are mine.
本书的目标读者可分为两类:一类是想要取得22分以上的分数但是缺乏目标的读者;另一类是经历过SAT、ACT、GRE、GMAT等高级考试后踌躇满志地想重新参加托福考试的读者。
本书的托福写作范文大都是传统的五段式文章,字数约500字。仅仅这一点,对大多数人(包括作者)而言,就很难做到套用模版。除此之外,写作的主题是精心挑选的,带有一定难度。本书的范文并不是写作模板,而是鲜明地呈现出各种各样的组织结构、观点、风格和评论的范文库供读者学习。
感谢大愚的两位编辑在出版的每一个流程中都对本书提出了专业的指导和建议。感谢两位专业录音员为本书的文章录制音频,使文章变得生动,同时感谢他们以敏锐的眼光发现并指正本书的错误,这让我自惭形秽。再次感谢他们!
感谢成都新东方学校的全体员工和老师对我的欢迎和接纳。感谢高女士和黄女士耐心地帮我解决了签证的问题;感谢马女士、委女士、Cecily和Depthbomb的友好指导。特别感谢我的导师成都新东方学校校长刘清文先生、国外考试部总监张魁先生和高级教师李祯女士,感谢他们为我提供了足够多的课外时间来完成本书。我最想感谢的人是我的良师益友唐盛,是他提出了撰写这本书的想法,感谢他开启了我在新东方的职业生涯,鼓励我并支持我完成了这本书。
本书若有错处,皆为本人的疏失。
