Claire：

I would live in a rural area if the government gave more financial help to farmers.Although it may cost very little to live in a rural area,it costs a lot to begin a career in agriculture.If I had financial help,I would start my own farm and be happy to live in a rural area.

Kelly：

In my country,urban centers are great places to live because you can access shops,restaurants,and museums.If the government of my country wanted to attract me to live in a rural area,the area would first have to attract more businesses focused on entertainment and culture than most rural areas have now.

尤其要注意I think后面的内容，一般是他们的观点。通常来说，2号同学会提到1号同学没有提到的新想法或者反对1号同学的观点。

托福写作官方范文篇一：家附近建电影院

It has recently been announced that a new movie theater may be built in your neighborhood. Do you support or oppose this plan? Why? Use specific reasons and details to support your answer.

范文：

I know from the media that a new movie theater may be built in my neighborhood. Going to see a movie is one of the most common ways of entertainment. With the movie theater nearby, I could　go to see a movie more convenient. However there are more reasons to oppose the building of a new heater, especially near our community.

If the movie theater is built in our neighborhood, it certainly provides us the conveniece to see a　movie. We no longer need to drive downtown to see it, but walk to the movie theater after dinner without any hastle. It will save a lot of time on the way to the teater. And we will never worry　about finding a parking lot.

However, the movie theater nearby will also bring some problems. First, the noise of the people　going to the theater will bother other people in the community. The movies usually end very late.　People who enjoy the movies will certainly discuss it when stepping out the theater. some people　　will argue or even cry for the movie. Furthermore, the noise of the cars' engines will make the　　condition worse. The people who live in the community nearby will suffer from the noises of　people and cars.

Another disadvantage of building a movie theater nearby lies that it will cause trafic jam during　　the hours people going home. People who live far away will drive to the theater. These cars　　together with the cars of the people after work will pose a heavy burden on the trafic system of　the town. The trafic jam will not only make many people late for the movie, but also bring us who　　live nearby bad moods before going home.

Considering the advantage and disadvantage factors above, I oppose to build a new movie theater　　in my neighborhood, because the problems outweigh the benefits. We usually see movies once a　month. I cannot afford suffering from the trafic jams and noises in the late evening throughout the　month except for the day I amble there to see a movie.

托福写作官方范文篇二：媒体过度关注名人隐私

Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Television, newspapers, magazines,　and other media pay too much attention to the personal lives of famous people such as public　figures and celebrities. Use specific reasons and details to explain your opinion.

范文：

I think the media pay too much attention to the private lives of famous people. Television, newspapers, magazines and web sites dig up all kinds of past bad actions. They say that these are true reflections of a person's character. This may be true if they occurred only a few years before, but some of these are things people did as teenagers. People in their forties are expected to explain something they did when they were fifteen. If they killed someone, obviously that's more than a youthful mistake. Usually, though, these incidents involve experiments with drugs or being reckless in a car. They're not something that the public needs to know.

The media love to say that the public has a right to know. That's not true. We don't need to know if a movie star or politician has had an extramarital affair. That is something of concern only to the people involved. We do need to know if someone we're electing to public office has been involved in shady business deals, but we don't need to know if he or she defaulted on a loan twenty years ago.

It seems the media dig up these facts without giving thoughtful consideration to what might happen. It has an effect on the celebrity's family, especially the children. A celebrity's good name and credibility may be ruined before he or she can prove that rumors are false. If a case goes to court, paying a lawyer can use up all their money. Even if it doesn't come to that, they may find their career ruined.

When are we, the public, going to make it clear to the media that we're tired of having to watch this kind of thing on the news? Wouldn't it be better if they would concentrate on more important issues?

托福写作官方范文篇三：人类活动对地球的影响

Some people believe that the Earth is being harmed (damaged) by human activity. Others feel　that human activity makes the Earth a better place to live. What is your opinion? Use specific　reasons and examples to support your answer.

范文：

People have been living on the Earth for thousands of years. Human activity influences the Earth. Some people believe that the Earth is being harmed by human activity. Others feel that human activity makes the Earth a better place to live. In my opinion, the earth is being damaged by human activity. There are many statements supporting my opinion.

Human activity has damaged natural environment and almost exausted natural resources. Modern industry needs more and more resources, including minerals, fuels and water. So we confront of the serious problems such as the lack of fuels and water. Ecological balance is damaged because factories occupy many places where animals and plants live. More and more buildings are constructed and forests become less and less. If we cannot recognize these problems and solve them soon, we would finally lose the environment suitable for our living.

An other serious problem is "the green-house effect." Human activity decreases forests and increases the usage of fuels so that the gas of carbon dioxide is output more and more and there are not enough plants to absorb it. The green-house effect is more obvious and more sensible these years. Due to the effect, icebergs in the south polar and north polar melt and the sea level becomes higher than before. I am worried about the cities nearby the sea and hope scientists find an effective method to eliminate the green-house effect.

Although we have advanced machines and our life seems more comfortable than before, we have less chances to approach natures and less spaces to act. The cities become bigger and if we want to have a picnic with our friends, we have to drive a long distance to find a natural place. In fact, the spaces of human activity are being damaged by the skyscrapers and factories.

From the above statements, we can conclude that human activity brings the Earth many damages. Fortunately people have recognized the point and I believe that the Earth will become a better place to live with our ceaseless efforts.
