托福考试作为一项英语语言能力的测试,其设置的目的,是为了考察一个希望到美国生活、学习的考生在语言上是否已经做好了充分的准备。从托福考试的题目设计来看,听力部分主要是围绕美国大学校园或者课堂的对话出题,阅读部分主要是围绕着简单的学术文章出题。考生如果能够通过这样的测试的话,一般被认为就具备了在美国学校“生存”下来的能力。在1987年以前,考生参加托福考试,不需要参加写作能力的测试。但是,美国各大院校普遍感觉到,即使在托福考试中发挥出色的考生,在撰写学校的论文时仍有较大的困难。这就要求在学生赴美留学之前,还要接受写作能力的考察。于是,ETS(Educational Testing Service)从1987年5月开始,在中国境内推出了TWE(Test of Written English),也就是我们经常讲的托福考试的写作部分。

EX Some people believe that success in life comes from taking risk or chance. Others believe that success results from careful planning. In your opinion, what does success come from? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.


  Nothing ventured. Nothing gained. If our great explorers and scientists did not live by this creed, where would we be? I think that we must all take risks in our lives, but these must be calculated risks. Like the great thinkers of our time, we must plan carefully, seize all opportunities, and reevaluate our plans.

  There is no such thing as a chance occurrence. Columbus in his search for the Indies drew maps, plotted his route carefully, and set out. Madam Curie worked diligently in her laboratory recording every aspect of her experiments. You need to have a careful plan so you can measure your success.

  Even with a careful plan, changes occur. Columbus was looking for the Indies, but ended up in the Caribbean. Lewis and Clark were looking for a river passage west, but discovered much more. You have to be ready to take advantage of new things as they occur.

  When things go against plan, you must be ready to change direction. Columbus didn’t bring back spices from the East Indies, he brought back gold from the West Indies. It is important to see the positive side of things. Make your mistakes work for you.

  You will never succeed in life if you don’t take chance. But before you start, you must plan carefully so you are ready to take advantage of every opportunity and turn mistakes to your advantage.
