摘要：是否会在写作中想不到说什么？是否脑子里没有足够的论据或者是素材？下面小编将从【素材段落】、【话题词汇】、【适用考题】等板块为大家积累托福写作文化和媒体类话题的相关素材。
素材段落
It is said that to pick up a book is like exploring an unknown world. The well-known novel written by Ernest Hemingway, The Old Man and the Sea, definitely depicts a different perspective for understanding the meaning of life. Life is not always about happiness and success. Sometimes, failures and disappointments befall us. The strong characteristic of the main character, a fisherman named Santiago, is the great perseverance that he displays in the story. Despite all his efforts and sacrifices, he was doomed to suffer an inevitable failure. However, the old man did not bow to his destiny and he transcended the difficulties that failed to ultimately crush him. Just like sentence in the novel states, ‘A man can be destroyed, but not defeated.’ This story about the indomitable spirit of man shows us one man’s courageous attitude towards life.
