2021年考情分析

1概述

22021年共72场考试，与去年不同的是，由于疫情的影响逐步减弱，今年的考试数量比去年要明显多了一些。由于大陆考生数量庞大，官方在今年特别增加了9场加场考试，按惯例加在周中或者周末下午。纵观今年的考题，常规二选一的题目依然是主要的出题部分，但是题目的长度有明显增加，更加注重考察学生对于题干中细节信息的抓取能力。三选一的题目总体比例比去年更高。

2题目类别和话题整体趋势不变，老题重复比例继续飙升

独立写作题型

展开全文

2021年托福写作的话题较往年有部分新话题出现，当然如上文提到的老题翻新，在众多的话题中，相比于去年最热门的教育类话题（39%），今年生活类和教育类并列成为今年考的最热门的话题，都是考了22场，占比30.6％，由其可见生活类越来越受ETS的青睐，紧接其后的是科技类，政府类和工作类都是考了6场，占比8.3%，而品质类考了5场，占比7%，紧接其后的是成功类，考了3场，占比4%, 最后的是社会类，考了2场，占比3%。

独立写作旧题比例

由于疫情的持续影响， ETS的产能明显出现了下降， 全年的题目中新题目的数量屈指可数， 只有可怜的10道，且大部分集中在上半年出现。换句话说，题目中重复率高达86%。

以下的内容建议考生重点阅读！！！

今年值得关注的题目如下：（此处所选题目标准为难度较高，故会给出建议的理由/思路；此部分题目不考虑话题类别和题型）

1.Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Government should not provide financial support to artists (For example, painters, writer, musicians …), and the government should let them support themselves.

如果选择同意，思路为：

1/ 如果政府给艺术家提供财政支持，可能会影响在其他方面的投入进而影响人们的生活质量。

2/ 艺术家自己可以挣钱，政府提供财政支持会让他们产生依赖性，对艺术行业有负面影响。

如果选择不同意，思路为：

1/ 政府给艺术家提供财政支持能促使产生更多的艺术作品丰富人们的生活。

2/ 政府给艺术家提供财政支持也将会对政府的财政产生正面影响。

2.The consumption of foods and drinks high in salt and sugar cause harm to people’s future health. Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Government should tax on these foods to reduce their sales.

思路：这道题目是政府类题目，依然遵循政府类题目常用思路，即对人民是否有好处、政府财政是否能获益、是否有更深远的社会影响等。

如果选择同意，思路为：

1/ 政府在有害健康的食品上收税可以提升大众健康水平。

2/ 政府收税之后可以做更多的事来建设国家。

如果选择不同意，思路为：

1/ 政府在有害健康的食品上收税并不能一定阻止人们购买。

2/ 这些食品有可能会更加有害健康，如果生产它们的公司面临高额税收。

3.Do you agree with the following statement? People are obsessed with buying or acquiring material things (expensive clothes, cars) because people judge others by what they possess.

思路：这个题目不属于常见的题目，因为题目本身存在因果关系。遇到这类题目的时候，往往我们会选择不同意的立场，需要做的是击破因果关系。

1/ 人们并不是根据别人拥有什么来评判别人的。

2/ 人们现在痴迷于购买贵的物品是有其他的原因。

4.Some charitable organizations（groups that help people in need）allow people who give money to charity to choose how their donations will be used.（For example，people can decide whether their donated money is spent directly on goods and services for people in need or on advertising by the charity.）If you were to give money to charity, would you prefer to choose how your donation is going to be used，or do you think it is more effective to leave that decision to the organization？Why？

思路：这个题目讨论的是比较陌生的慈善类话题，因为大部分同学平时关注较少，所以看到这类题目容易想不到思路或者展不开。建议大家从生活入手，联想自己在生活中接触到的慈善捐赠活动，比如给山区孩子捐书，给地震灾区灾民捐钱等等。如果选择自己决定 可行的分论点有：1）可能会更effectively地帮助有需要的人。2） 能够促使更多地人去参加慈善。

如果选择由慈善机构决定 可行的分论点有：1）会帮助人省去很多麻烦 2）可以更有效的帮助到有需要的人

5.Some leaders of student unions in the university do some management work; when there are problems between students, they will have meetings to solve the problem. There are three ways to select the leader, which one do you choose?

Reading some reports about the candidates in school magazines

Listening to the speeches related to school problems made by the candidates

Receiving the recommendation of candidates from the teachers

三选一题目，此类题目解题思路通常是可以在第一个主体段写作者支持的选项的好处。第二个主体段可以写的另外两个选项的问题，例如负面影响，可实施性弱或者效果不佳等。

本题选择同意第一个观点比较好写读那些校刊上写的关于这些竞选者的一些报道。第一个主体段写一些报道真实报道了竞选者过去做的事情，可以了解他们解决问题的方法，是否是合格称职的领导。另一个主体段写其它观点的坏处，像听他们的演讲都是空洞的，不一定都会去实践；，老师的推荐不一定适合，因为老师按自己的喜好选择。

6.Sometimes you are required to meet with another person to provide feedback about that person’s work (for example, when you must give your opinions about a classmate’s work on an assignment or your thoughts about a coworker’s contribution to a project). When you have both positive and negative feedback to give about a person’s work, do you believe it is more effective to give the positive comments first or the negative comments first? Why?

这套题目是独立写作一道比较难的比较利弊题目，注意这个题目问的是沟通的“顺序”，不论选哪个选项，两种反馈都要给，而不是问“你会挑哪种反馈说”。

此类题目如果选择先给积极反馈：

理由可以构思到1.从沟通的角度说，先给积极反馈能让对方心情更好,更能接受这样更有助于交流 2. 从效果上说，对方先在了解到自己的优点以后再提问题，对方会更加重视问题，从而为后续工作或者针对问题进行调整有效的调整。

如果选择先给消极反馈：

1.先给消极反馈可以更加突出需要改进的地方，引起对方重视，避免遗漏重要的改进的方面；2.先给消极再给积极反馈会使得沟通高效，可以让对方觉得不是在浪费时间

综合写作话题比例

2021年综合写作还是以生物学和考古学题目为主，全年72场考试，相对于往年来说今年考试的频率有史以来的高，往年：2018年47场，2019年55场，2020年44场。其中按照不同的话题分类来说：生物21次，历年来考频一直稳居第一位；考古12次，经济11次，生态10次；环保5次，教育/天文/历史3次，其他话题还包括：艺术(2), 政府(1)，地质(1)等。不难看出，较前几年相比，生物类的考频最高，而考古同样位列第二；但是“经济”“生态”类的话题的考频跟考古不相上下。同时：考察的话题类型比之前丰富，比如教育，天文，历史，艺术，政府，地质等均有出题。

具体的占比情况可以参照以下饼图，生物类占比30%，考古17%，经济和生态分别占比16%和15%。相比往年来说：2019年全年55场考试中，其中生物学23次；2020年全年44场考试中，其中生物学17次，考古学8次，分别占比39%和18%。所以不难看出，生物类和考古类话题一直是ETS考察的重中之重。而今年，话题类型比较丰富，上文所提到的教育，天文，历史，艺术，政府，地质题都有考察。

其中还有一定比例的考试，重复了旧题目，比如：

2021年10月30日综合写作真题回忆：拉奥孔雕像是米开朗琪罗伪造的三个理由；

阅读信息主论点：拉奥孔雕像是米开朗琪罗伪造的，有三个理由。

1. 米开朗琪罗在成名前曾伪造丘比特，鉴于他的造假经历，拉奥孔很可能也是他伪造的。

2. 拉奥孔雕像中间有一个图案，和米开朗琪罗早年一副画作很像，这副画作很可能是米开朗琪罗伪造拉奥孔的基础。

3. 这样会很赚钱。米开朗琪罗一旦与售卖艺术品的人串通，可以赚很多钱。

听力反驳主论点：米开朗琪罗没有伪造。

1. 米开朗罗成名前的确伪造丘比特，但他这样做是为了像世人展示自己的天赋。当丘比特被大众认可，米开朗琪罗逐渐成名。对后来功成名就的他而言，没理由再去进行伪造。

2. 米开朗琪罗的画作和雕像上的图案有很多不同。

3. 米开朗琪罗这样做风险太高，他不会冒险。他的客户基本是国王、贵族大臣，如果他敢造价，一经发现，他的事业就全毁了。

分析：这套题跟本年度2021年11月27日综合写作基本一致，重复了2019.11.9和2019.10.30的考题。

2022年趋势预测和考试安排

1.重题显著

2021依然是全球疫情泛滥的一年。显然，持续受到疫情的影响，ETS对新题的开发不如以前，导致本年度独立题的重题率高达86%，相比与2020的77%继续上涨。此外值得注意的是，今年出现了多次年内考题重复和线下考试重复线上家考的现象。2022疫情依然是全球需要共同应对的危机，ETS的新题开发预计将继续受到影响，所以重题率很可能与今年的数据不相上下。广大考生可以多利用2014-2021的真题进行复习和练笔，同时有条件的同学注意复盘年度内已考过的线下和家考题目。

2. 打分严格

从2021年整年的考生成绩来看，托福写作的打分是有收紧的。去模板化和零容忍的语言错误依然是2022年考试的大趋势。所以，在综合和独立写作两个任务当中，考生们都要注意不要背诵模板，然后要规避严重的语言错误，比如逗号连接两个独立的句子、there be句型写成run-on sentence（谓语杂糅）、时态混乱、词性混乱、主从句结构混乱、用词不当等。

2022年备考建议

01

独立备考

托福独立写作官方评分细则主要围绕解题、论证、语言三个方面进行打分，所以备考其实也需要去检查自己在这三方面的表现，擅长的就要保持，欠缺的就需要提高。

1）解题

常考的独立题，一类是判断题，一类是多选题。判断题在给出自己的立场之后，需要找到切题的理由，这时候需要多关注题干中的限定词，保证自己找到的观点恰如其分，符合题干的语境，而不是找一些无功无过的万能理由；多选题要注意每一个选项都要进行回应处理，并且也需要切题，即符合题干限定词构成的语境。这个部分如果自己通过备考依然无法解决问题，建议寻求老师的专业辅助。

2）论证

评分细则当中给出的论证要求，一类是说理（explanation），即在逻辑上证明自己的观点成立，另一类是举例（exemplification），即需要给出具象的案例，保证自己的观点和说理有事实支撑，另外两类论证都需要保证有细节（details）。这个部分如果类比法庭审判，就是既需要推理出犯罪嫌疑人的作案动机和过程（逻辑），又需要找到支撑这种推理的实际证据，如作案工具、含有犯罪嫌疑人DNA的组织等（证据）。逻辑不好的同学，需要多看一些辩论类的节目或者书籍，举证不强的同学则需要多进行英文材料的阅读（《托福写作真经6》、《经济学人杂志》等）和观看符合托福考试话题的美剧（《老友记》、《生活大爆炸》、《摩登家庭》、《小谢尔顿》）进行素材积累。

3）语言

评分细则中对于语言的要求主要体现在遣词和造句两个方面。用词不够准确的同学要养成查字典看英文解释的习惯，推荐大家多看电子字典中的柯林斯、牛津高阶、朗文三本字典的解释，多看英文解释、用法、搭配，不要只记中文意思。句式先要解决基础语法问题，可以自己买语法书籍学习也可以找专业的老师进行培训；语法基本没有问题的同学，可以通过阅读《托福写作真经6》、《经济学人》、《纽约时报》等材料来积累好的句型。如果用词、语法的准确度，词汇、句式的丰富度都已经达到比较高的水平，那下一步就可以通过多用英语母语者喜欢用的搭配、习语等来提高语言的地道程度。

02

综合备考

综合写作的评分细则主要涉及逻辑、信息、语言三个方面。

1）逻辑

逻辑是指描述清楚听力材料和阅读材料之间的逻辑关系，比如听力部分的某一个主体段既可以反驳阅读对应段落的观点，也可以反驳阅读对应段落使用的论据，甚至还可以部分承认阅读提供的信息然后从其他角度否定阅读的观点。此外，还有一些听力材料是给阅读列举的问题提供相应的解决方式。不管是哪一种情况，高分的答案一定是能够把这种关系描述清楚的表述。

2）信息

信息部分既包括阅读部分的信息也包括听力部分的信息，但是后者占据的比重更大。需要注意听力材料当中用到的核心道理论据、事实论据、例子论据、数据论据等都是有分的，不能主观省略不写。听不到信息的同学要去培养听句子结构的习惯，并练习精听保证听到更多细节；听力能听懂但是记不下来的同学，需要练习短期记忆和笔记法；前两者都没有问题的同学，就需要练习自己对信息的筛选和组织。

3）语言

相比于独立写作，综合写作对语言的要求是不高的。哪怕是满分的综合写作，也只要求语言表述清楚，少量出现的语法错误完全不影响理解即可。所以综合写作部分的语言，大家只要保证用词用对、语法不错就基本上能符合高分要求了，重点还是要去攻破逻辑和信息两大版块。
