大家都知道，我們中國人其實在英語的聽說讀寫四個環節上最薄弱的就是輸出的兩個能力：說和寫;而最強的就是輸入的兩個能力：讀和聽。
下面我就分別以新tofel的綜合部分和gre/gmat作文的“阿狗”部分為例分別給大家分享一下我個人對于滿分的一些理解。

其實新托福加了綜合部分以後，我個人認為是降低了難度。因為原來老托福的作文作為新托福作文的獨立部分並沒有什麽太大的改變，而且大家都知道作文水準的提高不是一朝一夕的事情，那麽我剛才說的不能盲目就是指大家不能在這個需要體現真正寫作水準的部分去背段落，因為這個是會被認為是舞弊行為的。那麽在綜合、獨立各佔15分的時候，我們如果能把握住任何一個部分的高分實際上平均下來的分數就不會低。而綜合部分由于是先讀一篇文章，再聽一段錄音，然後讓我們談文章與錄音的相互關系，而不用發表自己的觀點這一題目本身的客觀要求就決定了它是可以背由固定標準語句組成的“魔板”的。這正如研究生入學考試英語寫作的小作文和雅思寫作的小作文一樣是有固定套路的。比如錄音講座要麽就是質疑或者反駁了閱讀段落;要麽就是支持或者加強了閱讀段落，所以隻需要把相關描述質疑或者反駁與描述支持或者加強的固定語句背下來就可以得到一個相對較高的分數，如果考生同時又把相關要點表達準確和清楚了的話，那麽滿分是完全可能的。當綜合部分有15分在手的時候，獨立部分隻要及格那麽就能至少獲得24分的作文高分!
比如以下兩個“魔板“是分別描述質疑或者反駁以及支持或者加強的：
