　　托福写作范文

　　I’d rather have the university assign a roommate. As far as I’m concerned,having a roommate is part of the university experience. Students should meet newpeople and be open to new experiences. I think the university will choose anappropriate roommate for me.

　　Even though the university will choose, it’s not totally a randomsituation. We all filled out personality questionnaires. The school knows whatwe’re majoring in, what our interests are, and our study habits and our goals.Besides, if a mistake is made, I can change my room assignment next semester andfind a new roommate or a new room.

　　If I did want to choose my own roommate, first I would have to pick somecandidates from the list given to me by the university. Then I’d write to themand they’d write back. Through our letters, we’d find out if we have commonground and similar personalities, such as sports or movies. Through myinvestigation, I’d probably get someone compatible with me. It’s a lot of workto go through so many candidates. Besides, the process of finding similarinterests isn’t all that different from what the university does.

　　But I might choose someone who sounds just like me and still find that thetwo of us just don’t get along as roommates. I’d rather be with someone who hasdifferent interests and likes to do different things, so my roommate could bedifferent from me. This isn’t a problem, but I hope they can be understanding asto our differences. One of the reasons I’m going to the university is to beexposed to a lot of new experiences. So, I’d rather have the university choosemy roommate.

　　托福写作满分要素剖析

　　一. 语言表达

　　本文的观点新颖，摒弃了传统的对称式辩论写法，层层递进的解释了自己的论据，阐述了自己的论点。除了文章首段的主旨段，之后的每一段都以一个让步句作为首句，然后再从正反两面论述自己的分论点。逻辑结构严密谨慎。由此可知，大家在写作文的时候不要怕自己的论点标新立异与众不同，只要能做到言之有理，论点充分，逻辑严谨，最终能够自圆其说，一样会得到考官的青睐。

　　1. As far as I’m concerned, having a roommate is part of the universityexperience. 此句中as far as I’m concerned, doing sth is part of the some experience表示我认为做什么事儿是什么经历的一种，类似句型有：In my perspective, it is part of the university for meto have a roommate.

　　2. Through my investigation, I’d probably get someone compatible with me.It’s a lot of work to go through so many candidates.这两个句子看似各自独立，却是转折的关系。是说虽然我能通过调查找到合适的室友，但我得为此花很大的精力。句中get someone compatible withsomeone 的同义词组为 be compatible with someone， 意为和某人相处融洽。

　　3. But I might choose someone who sounds just like me and still find thatthe two of us just don’t get along as roommates. 此句中But + 句子，and still find that+ 从句，也是经典的转折句式，表示虽然怎么样，但是还是会怎么样。体现了作者语言的丰富性和多样性。

　　4. One of the reasons I’m going to the university is to be exposed to a lotof new experiences. 此句中one of the reasons someone be doing sth is…是一种常用的句式，表示某人做某事的原因之一是…。除此之外be exposed to在这里表示面临，接受。

　　二 逻辑结构

　　本文是一个递进的结构，开始说了作者即使学校给选择室友，也不是完全随机的，这是一个让步段。后面作者说了学校选择室友的机制其实和自己挑选是一样的。并在最后一段进行递进升华，即使作者没有找到相同兴趣的室友，反而更好，因为这样作者可以体会到不一样的人生观和世界观。
