6月25日托福考试综合写作分析

6月25日的独立是个新题，但是比较好写；综合写作是关于动物灭绝的原因，跟TPO34几乎没啥区别；相信平时精做过这篇文章的同学做这个题目应该也不费劲儿。

独立写作题目还原

Do you agree that it is better to work for business owned by someone else than to work for the business of one’s own family?

题型：比较类
话题：工作类
思路：具体情况具体分析
分析：可以按照工作经验分，对于工作经验比较缺乏的人来说，还是应该先出去闯荡，多见见世面；如果这个时候就开始靠父母，非常不利于培养独立生存的能力；然而，对于已经在外闯荡多年而且经验丰富的人来讲，还是给自己家干好啊！这年头，一身本事不贡献给自己老爹，贡献给谁呢？有动力，有兴趣，有干劲！

这就是传说中的拆分法！

当然，也可以用传统的一边倒思路来写哦：

题型：比较类
话题：工作类
思路：一边倒
分析：如果支持给别人打工可以写这样有助于培养独立生活的能力，开阔视野，提高竞争力；也可以写交到更多的朋友、扩大人脉；还可以攻击给家人打工：比如可能没啥兴趣了；还比如关系很难处理了等等；如果支持给家人干可以说：给家人打工压力更小同时给家人打工赚钱更多、职位更高、锻炼机会更多等等

综合写作–不觉得和TPO34海牛很像吗？

阅读给出了ammonite(菊石)灭绝的原因，这些原因被听力一一反驳

阅读部分

a) 酸雨导致 young ammonite 死亡，没有新的下一代产生
b) 他们吃一种浮游生物，而那种生物急剧减少，因此菊石灭绝了
c) 海水里面缺少氧气

听力部分

a) 酸雨不会太酸，否则其他的生物比如青蛙灭绝，而青蛙并没有灭绝
b) 只发现了一组菊石是吃浮游生物的，不能证明所有的菊石的食物都是浮游生物
c) 菊石体内有一个器官可以提高氧气的利用率，他们可以在低氧状态下存活

请参考TPO34综合写作

阅读材料

A huge marine mammal known as Steller’s sea cow once lived in the waters around Bering Island off the coast of Siberia. It was described in 1741 by Georg W. Steller, a naturalist who was among the first Europeans to see one. In 1768 the animal became extinct. The reasons for the extinction are not clear. Here are three theories about the main cause of the extinction.

First, the sea cows may have been overhunted by groups of native Siberian people. If this theory is correct, then the sea cow population would have originally been quite large, but hundreds of years off too much hunting by the native people diminished the number of sea cows. Sea cows were a good source of food in a harsh environment, so overhunting by native people could have been the main cause of extinction.

Second, the sea cow population may have become extinct because of ecosystems disturbances that caused a decline in their main source of food, kelp (a type of sea plant). Kelp populations respond negatively to a number of ecological changes. It is possible that ecological changes near Bering Island some time before 1768 caused a decrease of the kelp that the sea cows depend on.

Third, the main cause of extinction of the sea cows could have been European fur traders who came to the island after 1741. It is recorded that the fur traders caught the last sea cow in 1768. It thus seems reasonable to believe that hunting by European fur traders, who possessed weapons that allowed them to quickly kill a large number of the animals, was the main cause of the sea cow’s extinction.

听力文章：

The truth is we don't know what the main cause of extinction of Steller's sea cow was. There are problems with each of the theories that you read about. First, the sea cows were massive creatures. They were up to nine meters long and could weigh over ten tons, just enormous. A couple of sea cows could feed a small Siberian village for months. And the population of the native Siberian people wasn't very large. So while the Siberians certainly did hunt the sea cows, they didn't need to hunt a lot of them. So it's unlikely they were the ones who brought the sea cows to the point of extinction. Second, about a hypothetical decrease in kelp caused by ecological disturbances. Well, if something severe really happened in the ecosystem near Bering Island sometime before 1768, it would have affected not just the kelp, but also other parts of the ecosystem. For example, it would have caused the decline in other marine animals, like whales. But fishing ships in the area did not report a whale decline. Since there is no indication of broader ecosystem problems, the kelp was probably growing just fine, and the sea cows did not experience food shortage. Third, it might seem like the European traders were responsible because the sea cows became extinct soon after the Europeans arrived. But, actually, by the time that the Europeans arrived, the sea cow population was already quite small. We have evidence that the sea cow population was at its largest hundreds of years before the 1700s. So something was causing a serious and on-going decrease in the sea cow population long before Europeans arrived in the Bering Island area. Whatever this something was, it should be considered the main cause of the extinction, not the European traders who were just the last to arrive.
