面對托福獨立寫作，好的開頭固然重要，但是一個好的結(jié)尾，也能夠我們的作文增加分?jǐn)?shù)。那么什么樣的結(jié)尾段算的上是高分結(jié)尾呢?如何能夠?qū)懗龈叻纸Y(jié)尾段呢?
一個好的結(jié)尾段應(yīng)該滿足如下幾個功能：
1. 重申文章觀點;
2. 總結(jié)主體段落的論點;
3. 升華主題。
這三個功能在文中如何體現(xiàn)呢?
請看到如下的例子：
【題目】Should the money invested into a university library be used to buy booksor to buy computers? What do you think? Why?
【觀點】I believe that to invest on computers would be a better choice.
【結(jié)尾段】In conclusion, given that computers have more valuable merits as anefficient, durable, manageable means for libraries of the new century, Itherefore reinforce my standpoint to choose computers as my final choice forthe investment.
在這個結(jié)尾段，整段就一句話，但實際上它既重申了觀點：I therefore reinforce my standpoint to choose computers as my final choicefor the investment……
又總結(jié)了主體段落的三個論點理由：computers have more valuable merits as an efficient, durable, manageablemeans for libraries of the new century.
這樣的結(jié)尾段就是符合托福寫作基本要求的，全文沒有其他大問題的話拿24分都沒有問題。那除了這樣的結(jié)尾方式，我們還有沒有其他的寫作方法呢?
請看如下第二個例子：
題目：Should the money invested into a university library be used to buy booksor to buy computers? What do you think? Why?
結(jié)尾段：Admittedly, books do have certain advantages over computers. They are easyto carry than computers. However, computers have more valuable merits as anefficient, durable, manageable means for libraries of the new century.Itherefore reinforce my standpoint to choose computers as my final choice forthe investment.
在上面這個結(jié)尾段中，第一、二句話先承認(rèn)了書還是有一定好處的，比如容易攜帶。
接著立刻轉(zhuǎn)折，強調(diào)電腦的好處大于書，所以作者選擇電腦是理所應(yīng)當(dāng)?shù)摹?/div>
這樣的寫作方法把比較雙方都提到了，體現(xiàn)了邏輯的完整性。
同時，由于電腦優(yōu)點比書多，所以選電腦這個觀點肯定是毋庸置疑的，這樣寫使得論證更加有力。
