2015年托福满分作文备考技巧：如何减少扣分点
无论是综合还是独立，想拿高分不准备是不行的。那么，托福写作中如何写出近满分的作文?这就要按照ETS的要求，一步一步将该呈现的内容呈现到位了。
第一，概括和组织。
阅读文章一般结构清晰，观点明确，学生往往能一眼看出哪个是中心句，哪个是举例：这种情况很浅显，学生只需要挑出中心句，然后稍微换上几个同义词，或是改动一下句子结构，阅读的主要观点便出来了，而且也不是抄袭阅读的。另外，在中心句不是很明显的时候，学生则需要分析给的几句话，或者是从后文的例子与解释中，去对应观点句里的关键词，这样就能锁定文章的主要观点了。
第二，自制模板。
综合写作模版好使，但不见得这个模版是适合你的。有些模版措辞复杂，句式冗长，而使用了这些模版的人，往往是为了将就模版，限制了自己的发挥：每每写的文章，200个单词里面，自创的，只有50个左右。也就是说，除了模版给出来的套话，实际涉及阅读和听力观点和信息的文字，非常的少，内容非常单薄，自然分数不会高过25。
要用模版的'话，就用自己的模版。用自己平时说话的自然方式来表的，形成了自己的思维方式，用起来肯定是相当自然的。怎么形成自己的模版呢?用至少20道题练手：看自己是习惯先总结听力观点，然后与阅读观点一一对应去写，还是听力观点和阅读观点分成两部分去概括，然后再集中论述他们的关系;有了框架，就到实质了。论述的时候，一般的学生都只是一句大话带过，而没有将足够的证据或细节摆上。
这个是我们应该杜绝的。只有简练到位地论述了，才能体现出阅读和听力观点的关系来。论述就应该：1. 合理使用阅读和听力的例子，但不是照抄，而要概括;2. 注意例子和观点的对应，切忌张冠李戴。3. 阅读听力缺一不可，要两条腿走路。
第三，检查。
文章写完后，一定要留出至少3分钟来检查。尤其是托福(课程)写作中的基础拼写，时态，以及单复数搭配是否有错，及时更改。

范文示例
With the gradually raised standard of living, nowadays an increasing number of families raise animal pets,which has evoked a heated discussion among the public. Some claim that raising pets is a sheer waste of time, while others contend that children can actually benefit in important ways from taking care of pets. As for me, I am inclined to support the latter for the following reasons.
To begin with, animal pets can become loyal companions for children,enriching their childhood and embedding in them beautiful memories. By spending time with pets, children can develop close and profound relationships with them, and in turn these cute and cuddly animals can provide for their little masters such wonderful memories that can be cherished for life. I still remember vividly my childhood friend, an adorable cat named Lily. Back that time the most satisfying moment for me was to play with Lily after school. Even the smallest ball of knitting wool could easily draw Lily’s attention, and she would chase the ball I held for minutes. Whenever she became tired or bored, she would always come to me, purring and rubbing her furry little head against my leg. Without Lily my childhood would have never become this colorful. And I believe the same applies to many other children as well. Raising animal pets can indeed help children attain a memorable and desirable childhood.
Moreover, taking care of animal pets is an effective way to help children foster patience and sense of responsibility, which are of great significance for their future development. Owning an animal pet is a major commitment, which means that once the children become a little master, they are obliged to commit a series of complicated duties to ensure the well-being of their pets. For example, they have to prepare the suitable amount of food to feed the pets in time, clean up the mess their pets have made including faeces, and spend regular time to play with the pets every day. In this way, these children can gradually learn to be caring and responsible. Some may even say that owning a pet means no less hardship than raising a child, and I learned this from my own experience with Lily. By taking care of Lily, I have also thoroughly understood the hardships my parents undergone to bring myself up, which taught me to respect my parents more and gave me a deeper understanding of responsibility and patience. Taking care of animal pets can indeed help children march on the path towards maturity.
In addition,animal pets can be psychologically beneficial to children as well. To be more detailed, unlike parents or teachers, pets are never critical and never give orders. They are always loving and their mere presence at home can help provide a sense of security in children. Besides, having an ever-present pet can help ease separation anxiety in children when parents are not around ; having a little pet to be taken care of can teach a child provide love and affection; having the love and companionship of a loyal pet can make a child feel important and help him or her develop a positive self-image. Needless to say, animal pets can indeed guarantee children a mentally healthy development.
