　　Introduction

　　The reading passage and the lecture are split overwhether it was Ansel Adams that created the photographic negatives, dating from the 1920s and showing landscape scenes of the western US.

　　虽然阅读文的introduction有大量信息，但是通过听力材料，我们可以判断出来：阅读和听力相悖的点在于photographic negatives的作者是不是Ansel Adams，于是，阅读文中与此无关的信息都可以被省略。

　　Body

　　The reading proposes the first piece of evidence that a photographic negative (对应了阅读中的重点信息：one image，我们写作时在措辞上进行了具体理解) showing a pine tree resembles Adams’ another work in the 1920s in which there is a tree. Opposing the reading, the lecturer argues that the negative may be linked to （听力难点：听力中对此句话的信息没有直接陈述，而是靠我们理解） a picture taken by any of the many other photographers (对应了听力中的重点信息：among all the visitors were many photographers，我们写作时在措辞上进行了paraphrase), since the tree was easily recognizable (对应了听力中的重点信息：relatively easy to recognize) and a popular subject of photographs (对应了听力中的另一个重点信息: a famous landmark) in the 1920s.

　　如果丢了任何一个重点信息，那么“信息还原度”（综合写作任务的评分要点）就打了折扣，写作分数就低。

　　The second piece of evidence the reading proposes is that the handwriting on the envelope containing the negatives is highly similar to (对应了阅读中的重点信息：striking similarities，我们写作时在措辞上进行了paraphrase)the handwriting of Ansel’s wife, who had been Ansel’s assistant. The lecturer’s counter-argument is thatmisspelled names of places (对应了听力中的重点信息：spelling mistakes for place names，我们写作时在措辞上进行了paraphrase), which are in the handwriting, should be impossible （听力难点：听力中对此句话的信息没有直接陈述，而是靠我们理解） in the case that Ansel’s wife grew up in and had been familiar with the area where the places are.

　　The reading also points out that blah blah blah blah blah blah. That is refuted/rebutted/questioned/challenged by the lecturer. It is argued that blah blah blah blah blah blah （具体内容略）instead.

　　托福独立写作技法—三选一

　　The topic is on Page 219 of the 《新托福写作真经6》

　　Body

　　首先否定OPTION 3：

　　Unless 把让步内容放进状语从句里来写，从而加快信息节奏：a student still has a chance to receive a high school education of premium quality, for example, the student is in the middle school or has a chance to transfer to another school, the third way is not an option. Among the majority of students, it is before the high school that they have a chance to try the third option. In addition, excellent high school teachers are not the guarantee of success in the college-level study, 任何表达了非常识概念的/表达了主观上认定的statement都需要解释原因：because the many internal factors are more decisive.

　　注意：其实就是通过create a circumstance来讨论的

　　然后否定OPTION 2：

　　让步：The second option, assuming that the student’s problem is with the mindset, is adoptable. In other words, sometimes, the trouble is that the student is under stress and feels helpless. Admittedly, this state of mind can inhibit learning, and its removal, by the supportive family and friends, can therefore contribute to academic success at college. 转折：However, in many cases, stress is not as simple as a mental state but the result of the inability to deal with the intellectually demanding academic realms, where no support or encouragement would help. 顺延到OPTION 1：At this point, the student should turn to a tutor since the tutorials solve the problems with knowledge. Obviously, as soon as the knowledge is well explained and proper instructions about learning are given, not only does the student achieve the comprehension of the subject matter, the student also feels relaxed as the pivotal issue gets resolved.

　　注意：其实就是通过create a circumstance来讨论的

　　最后补充OPTION 1的其它优势：

　　In addition, the tutor sets an example about how to survive university, including both in what the college-level study is handled and the proper way of living a campus life. 接下来，例证：This is my case. In my case, I am not the student preparing for university but the tutor providing the individual tuition. Blah blah blah, blah blah blah.

　　conclusion

　　In light of the above, 关键一句：finding a tutor wins, because of its practicality and also because it is aversatile method. The disadvantage of the other two proposals is that they either work only for a limited number of students or work in one particular circumstance.更多托福考试干货敬请关注新航道托福考试频道
