1、托福iBT TPO 1-15综合写作参考范文 TPO1 范文： The lecturer claims that the new policy, which allows people to work four days a week instead of five, will bring side effects to both the companies and the society. This does not agree with the reading passage, which suggests that such a policy would be beneficial. T
2、o begin with, according to the lecture, a company that allows employees to have fewer working hours is likely to hire more people to ensure their normal productivity. As a result, expenses for training and medical insurance will inevitably rise. The reading passage, by contrast, suggests that employ
3、ees who enjoy more leisure time will have fewer mistakes and work more efficiently, leading to the increase of profit for the enterprise. The second point of difference is regarding impact on unemployment rate. The lecturer asserts that for the sake of saving money, the employers might raise their e
4、xpectation on 4-day employees, rather than recruit more people. Consequently, the employees who work 4 days will be forced to finish what they did in 5 days previously, and therefore no additional jobs will be created. Finally, the lecturer argues that not only the quality of life will decline if an
5、 employee works shorter hours and receives less pay, but also they have less chance to be promoted to a supervisory position. However, the reading passage contends that more leisure hours can create opportunities to strengthen family ties and allow employees to develop private interests, making them

This claim is not in agreement with that of the reading passage, which suggests that such a policy
7、 will be beneficial. According to the lecture, a company that allows employees to have fewer working hours is likely to hire more people to ensure that it meets normal levels of productivity. If this occurs, expenses for training and medical insurance will inevitably rise. The reading passage, by co
8、ntrast, suggests that employees who enjoy more leisure time make fewer mistakes and work more efficiently, leading to increased profits for the enterprise. The second point of difference between the lecture and the reading passage concerns the impact of the policy on the unemployment rate. The lectu
9、rer asserts that for the sake of saving money, employers might raise their expectations of 4-day employees rather than recruit more people. Consequently, employees who work 4 days will be forced to finish what they did in 5 days previously, and no additional jobs will be created. Finally, the lectur
10、er argues that under the new policy, employees will experience not only decreased quality of life (as shorter working hours will translate into less pay), but also fewer chances to be promoted to supervisory positions. However, the reading passage contends that more leisure hours can create opportun
11、ities to strengthen family ties and allow employees to develop private interests, making them feel more satisfied with their lives. TPO2（ETS满分版）： The lecturer talks about research conducted by a firm that used the group system to handle their work. He says that the theory stated in the passage was v
12、ery different and somewhat inaccurate when compared to what happened in reality. First, some members got free rides. That is, some didnt work hard but got recognition for the success nontheless. This also indicates that people who worked hard were not given recognition they should have gotten. In ot
13、her words, they werent given the opportunity to “shine”. This directly contradicts what the passage indicates. Second, groups were slow in progress. The passage says that groups are more responsive than individuals because of the number of people involved and their aggregated resources. However, the
14、 speaker talks about how the firm found out that groups were slower than individuals in decision making. Groups needed more time for meetings, which are necessary procedures in decision making. This was another place where experience contradicted theory. Third, influential people might emerge and le
15、ad the group towards glory or failure. If the influent people are going in the right direction there would be no problem. But in cases where they go in the wrong direction, there is nobody that has enough influence to counter the decision made. In other words, the group might turn into a dictatorshi
16、p, with the influential party as the leader, and might become less flexible in its thinking. They might become one-sided, and thus fail to succeed. Rating annotation： Once you can read past what seem to be the results of poor typing, this Benchmark 5 does an excellent job of presenting the points ab
17、out the contribution and recognition of group members as well as about speed of group decisions. The final paragraph contains one noticeable error (“influent”), which is then used correctly two sentences later (“influential”). Overall, this is a successful response and scored within (though perhaps
18、not at the top of) the 5 level. TPO3（满分范文） The lecture revises the idea presented in the text, that Rembrandt was not the artist who painted the famous painting Portrait of an Elderly Woman in a White Bonnet”. The inconsistency between the white cap, which identifies the woman as a servant, and the
19、expensive fur collar she wears dissolves as the Professor explains that the fur collar was apparently painted over the original painting to increase its worth by displaying an aristocratic woman. In addition, the assumption that light and shadow in the painting do not fit together is refuted by the
20、fact that in the original painting, the woman wears a light cloth that illuminated her face. Thus the presentation of light and shadow was indeed very realistic and accurate, as it is characteristic of Rembrandts paintings. Finally, the mystery of the panel consisting of patches glued together is al
21、so solved in the lecture. Actually, the wood panel was later enlarged to make it more grand and valuable, but the original painting was painted on a single panel, as Rembrandt would have done it. Furthermore, the wood is of the same tree used in other Rembrandt paintings, like the Self-Portrait with
22、 a Hat”. All this information points to Rembrandt as the painter of the controversial painting. TPO4（满分版）： The professor actually contradicts the statements made in the passage. She is of the view that dinosaurs are not endotherms i.e. they were not able to keep their body temperature at a constant
23、rate. The professor contradicts the issue of dinosaurs being endotherms based on the availability of fossils being available in the polar regions, she say that the polar regions in those days were not as cold as they are today i.e at least warm enough for dinosaurs to live. During harsh winters she
24、says that there is a possibility of the dinosaurs actually migrating to warmer regions. The issue of leg position and movement being used as a reason to classify the dinosaurs as endotherms does not please the professor either. She says that dinosaurs had legs under their bodies to support their hug
25、e bodies i.e the legs under the body of the dinosaur were actually to support the huge weight of the dinosaur and not to provide it with a body structure like endotherms(which is actually suited for running). The professor acknowledges the presence of haversian canals but also points out that that t
26、he fossils show the presence of growth rings. These rings occur due to the thickening of the bone. The thickening indicates that the dinosaurs werent actually growing continuously but were experiencing periods of rapid growth and periods of no growth in succession. This pattern. she says is characte
27、ristic of non endothermic animals. Thus it can be inferred that the professor challenges the passage by giving reasons as to why she thinks that the dinosaur is not an endotherm. Description of Response: Despite initial appearances, this response largely succeeds in clearly and accurately presenting
28、 how the lecture points take issue with the points in the reading passage that dinosaurs were endotherms. The first point regarding dinosaurs in polar regions could be a bit clearer. Otherwise, the response mainly suffers from typographical errors, but these are not regarded as major problems; it is
29、 obvious that the writer has good control of structure and vocabulary and the ability to use these to convey in an organized and logical manner what has been understood and asked. TPO 5： The author of the reading passage proposes three theories as likely explanations of the primary function of Chaco
30、 Canyon houses, grant structures built in the I2th century. The lecturer, however, points to the inaccuracies in each of these theories. The lecturer argues that the modest number of fireplaces in these structures is in contradiction with the huge size of these houses, indicating that these structur
31、es could not have been used for Residential purposes. The Reading, however, draws comparisons between the Chaco houses and other similar large Residential structures in support of the Residential theory. The second theory, that the houses were used for food storage, is also rejected by the lecturer.
32、 He explains that a place that had been used for storing maize would have many traces of scattered Maize, which is not the case in the area of the Chaco Canyon houses. This proves that the food storage theory is unlikely. Finally, regarding the third theory, the ceremony theory, the lecturer contend
33、s that the presence op broken pots close to the great houses does not offer sufficient proof that this was a place for ceremonial activities. He argues that there are other materials such as pieces of construction trash found along with the broken pots, which suggest that these pots were probably no
34、t used for ceremonial purposes but instead were discarded by construction workers upon completion of the great houses. TPO 6： The lecturer addresses each of the three criticisms of communal online encyclopedias mentioned in the Reading passage. The lecturer admits that communal online encyclopedias,
35、 like any reference book, may contain errors, but she claims that these errors can be corrected much more easily and quickly than those printed in a paper encyclopedia. The Reading passage, in contrast, points to the inaccuracy of information in online encyclopedias, presenting the argument that err
36、ors in these resources are due to lack of professional knowledge among contributors. The lecturer then gives two strategies that have been proven very effective in protecting online encyclopedias from malicious alteration. She explains that contents that consist of indisputable facts are stored and
37、presented in a read-only format so that nobody can make changes to them. In addition, she says, there are specialists who constantly monitor contents online so that they can quickly remove a suspicious change once it is detected. The lecturer also challenges the final point in the reading regarding
38、the nature of topics covered in online encyclopedias. She says that because of virtually unlimited space on the Internet. there is no need to worry about what is important enough for inclusion in an online encyclopedia. Moreover, the greater variety of topics in online encyclopedias more truly refle
39、cts the genuine interests of the general public, even if some of these topics are less serious or academic than those in traditional encyclopedias. TPO 7： The lecture and the reading passage give contradictory opinions on the topic of ecocertification, a form of accreditation conferred by on interna
40、tional agency in recognition of a companys eco-friendly practices. The passage explains that it is not necessary for American wood companies to pursue ecocertification while the lecture provides several counterarguments to this view. First, the lecturer argues that the reading passage is too general
41、 in its statement that American consumers reject advertising completely. He asserts that Americans do not trust advertising claims for a product only when these claims are made by the company that sells the product. When a claim is made by an independent third party such as a wood certification comp
42、any, he posits, consumers respond very positively with strong acceptance of the certified product. The lecturer also refutes the second point in the reading - that price-sensitive American consumers are likely to choose cheap wood products without certification. The professor contends that certified
43、 wood is only slightly (less than 5%) more expensive than uncertified wood, and therefore, he argues, consumers will tend to ignore the price difference and choose the eco-friendly product. Finally, receiving eco-certification is, according to the professor, an important strategy used by American wo
44、od companies to ensure that their products can compete against ecocertified wood products imported into the domestic market from foreign countries. According to the reading, however, this strategy is unnecessary because American consumers are likely to be content with domestically manufactured produ
45、cts, even if they are not ecocertified. TPO 8： The Reading passage raises several doubts about the accuracy of the memoir written by the Chevalier de Seingalt, whereas the professor defends the memoir in the lecture by clarifying the seeming contradictions in the Chevaliers accounts. The professor a
46、rgues that because the Chevalier was rich in assets but poor in cash while he was living in Switzerland, he occasionally had to borrow funds to pay for expensive recreational activities. According to the professor, having low amounts of cash is not the same as being financially poor. The reading, ho
47、wever, holds that as someone who had to borrow large amounts of money from others, the Chevalier must have fabricated stories of his wealthy life in Switzerland. Moreover, the professor challenges the skepticism expressed in the reading regarding the reliability of the conversations with vottaire th
48、at the Chevalier recorded in his memoir. She explains that because the Chevalier had a habit of recording each conversation with Voltaire immediately after they met, he was able to recall those discussions in detail even years later. Finally the professor rejects the claim in the reading that the Ch
49、evalier bribed his way out of a prison in Venice. She says that the pact that none of the other prisoners, even those with better resources, had been able to do so shows that bribery was unlikely. Furthermore, she points to a government paper that recorded the repair work done to the Chevaliers prison cell, cit
