一般来说,文章开头引用名人名言可以达到提纲挈领、总领全篇、引人入胜,为整篇文章奠定基调等作用。文中引用名人名言可以使论据确凿充分,说明问题、阐明观点时增强说服力,具有突出中心、富有启发性、使语言精炼等作用。下面以托福独立口语为例,为大家分享如何借用名言警句增强托福口语表达力。
Task1:
Your friend is always late for group events, what suggestions do you have for him? (2015.1.10)
这道题我们可以借用美国历史上的政治家,费城实验的执行人Benjamin Franklin说过的一句话:Early to bed and early to rise , makes a man healthy , wealthy and wise.(早睡早起让人健康、富有和睿智。)
当然我们要简单地设计一下,我们可以在一个分论点中说到这样一句话:
I will suggest my friend to go to sleep as early as possible, according to Benjamin Franklin, Early to bed and early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise, and it is definitely a right thing to do.
Task2:
Your friend is studying in a business school now, but he likes playing musical instrument. Which suggestion would you give to your friend? To keep studying business, or to learn to play music? (2015.5.30)
这种选择性的任务题在新托福口语中是经常见到,在这里,我们借用美国诗人罗伯特·佛斯特在他最的诗——The Road Not Taken(未走的路)中的一句名言作为开头:Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference.
一片森林里分出两条路,而我却选择了人迹更少的一条,从此决定了我一生的道路。
当然还是简单地设计一下,开头我们可以这样说:I believe Robert forest said it best,Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference, learning playing music is better.
好的语言表达是要有高度,绝不是一些简单句流利表达,它对我们综合性的知识面和运用能力有很高的要求,如果一些同学的口语希望能冲刺27+,大家可以学习和借鉴这种方法。
