  托福獨立寫作題目

  Students are more interested in politics than they were in the past. Do you agree or disagree?

  1

  To get a sense of whether current students are interested in politics, social media, which dominate the way students get informed, are a good place to start. With more students posting comments on political issues online, people are put under a illusion that they are interested in politics. As a matter of fact, current students are less likely to be intrigued by politics than did their counterparts of the past.

  重點詞匯：

  * To get a sense of xxx, .... is a good place to start 為了了解某事，... 是個好的切入點。

  * Under the illusion 在xx幻覺之下

  * Intrigue v. 引起興趣

  * Counterpart n. 對應的事物

  2

  It is indeed easier for students, who are exposed to a deluge of news online, to be politically aware today. With information about what’s happening both at home and abroad at their fingertip, it seems that social platforms have ignited students passion for politics. However, would they truly reflect on the political news when browsing social media? The fact is that with most news online presented in short videos with catchy headlines, students may simply glance over the title or mainly focus on the funny moments when a politician makes a verbal slip. Even if they may briefly skim the highlight of a report, they may be too lazy to think about the implications or rationales. Sadly, they may wrongly assume that they have fully learned about the complex event by doing this.

  段落解析：

  本段內先轉折說明盡管學生看的很多，但其實他們只看標題和搞笑的內容，但缺乏深度思考，所以不是真正的感興趣。而至于與過去的對比，不妨留至下段展開。

  重點詞匯：

  * At one’s fingertip 觸手可及

  * Glance over 粗略瀏覽

  * Make a verbal slip 口誤

  3

  Although past generations of students did not enjoy the same convenience brought by social media, they are more absorbed by each piece of news on the latest political events, either through newspapers, cable TV or word-of-mouth. And more importantly, they were very vocal in the inequalities like unfavourable policy for women or the minorities, and the demonstration aiming to stop Vietnam War as well as civil rights protest engaged thousands of them. By stark contrast, students nowadays who read a lot online and discuss freely within the class may become ironically silent when it comes to actually do something.

  段落解析：

  本段完成與上段的對比，說過去的學生不像現在的學生，不但看，而且思考，而且有所行動。這才是真正的感興趣。

  盡管現在的學生可以用過社交媒體讀到大量的政治新聞， 而過去的學生不能。但我們不能誤以為(be put in the illusion that)學生就對政治感興趣了。因為現在的學生讀政治新聞只粗略(skim; glance over) 瀏覽標題或者只關注搞笑的部分，而不仔細思考(reflect)。而過去的學生，盡管資源有限，但是會細細思考及激烈討論。更重要的是，他們還會積極地為政治事件發聲。

  重點詞匯：

  * Absorb v. 被吸引

  * Vocal adj. 直言不諱的

  * Demonstration n. 游行

  4

  Additionally, in the past, students had little to do other than unfolding a newspaper or playing instruments in their dorms, and they were therefore more likely to allocate time for politics. This is different from now, when students have more activities to do during their free time in dorms. For example, they can now play engaging video games rather than reading boring political report written in obscure language; and they can gossip about films or celebrities instead of debating over political events that provoke thoughts. In this case, how could they be interested in politics?

  重點詞匯：

  * Engaging adj. 引人入勝的

  * provoke thoughts 煽動思緒

  5

  In conclusion, it seems easier to be politically active now than it was in the past, but current students’ nonchalance about politics seems to be the norm rather than the exception.

  重點詞匯：

  * be the norm rather than the exception 常見
