First, the new TOEFL writing
TOEFL writing direction means "usually an effective writing needs 150 ~ 225 words". This requirement is only "suggestive", not mandatory. According to the number of words in comprehensive writing, ETS points out that the content written by candidates can answer questions, and candidates will not be deducted for exceeding the prescribed number of words.
There is no upper limit for candidates' articles. I would like to remind all candidates that you can write as much as you can within the specified time, but the content you write should be to the point. TOEFL independent writing: mainly writing argumentative essays, with no less than 300 words and 30 minutes to complete.
Second, TOEFL
TOEFL is an academic English language test developed by educational testing service. TOEFL can reflect the participants' real academic language ability in the academic language task environment by examining the four skills of listening, speaking, reading and writing, and can be used for undergraduate and graduate college applications.
TOEFL is a transliteration of the English abbreviation "Test of English as a foreign language".
How to get high marks in TOEFL writing
First, the content is complete and accurate.
Generally speaking, there are three points of information in the lecture, which depends on whether the candidates have completely and accurately extracted the key information points in the lecture (expressed in their own language), and also need to effectively correspond to the relevant contents of the reading materials.
If the information points in the lecture are missing, there will be a certain degree of deduction; If you only write the opinions of the reading materials, 1 point.
Second, vocabulary and grammar are used correctly.
Clear organization, coherent structure and proper use of words are the necessary conditions for a high-scoring composition. Candidates should ensure that they can accurately express how the ideas in the lecture are related to those in the reading materials, as long as there are no major expression errors, such as unclear expression and unsatisfactory words.
Some small language mistakes, such as singular and plural words and spelling problems, will not affect the performance of the composition very much, but try to avoid similar small mistakes.
