通過(guò)日常閱讀和聽(tīng)力材料積累必要的話題素材，不求字字句句銘記只需大概了解特定范疇，再在日常托福備考中注意練習(xí)應(yīng)用，學(xué)會(huì)觸類旁通融會(huì)貫通，考場(chǎng)上自然可以心中有數(shù)。下面和出國(guó)留學(xué)網(wǎng)小編來(lái)看一些托福寫(xiě)作和成功有關(guān)話題素材拓展。
Sample Question：
Do you agree or disagree with the following statement？
It is easier to succeed nowadays than in the past.
一個(gè)人的成功會(huì)被哪些因素影響呢？這些因素古往今來(lái)是否有所變化呢？
Factor 1： ability （能力）
包括知識(shí)儲(chǔ)備（knowledge reserves），溝通技巧（communication skills），抗挫折能力（ability to resist setback）和情商（emotion quality）。
Sample Sentences：
1. In the last century， it’s hard to obtain information because of the lack of technology， while currently we can access to any information in seconds.
2. In the past， someone possessed a special skill could succeed easily， however， it’s no longer feasible nowadays since the exploration of knowledge.
Factor 2： Partner（合作伙伴）
換個(gè)方式說(shuō)就是teamwork的重要性。過(guò)去一個(gè)裁縫可以開(kāi)裁縫鋪給人做衣服糊口，現(xiàn)在講究teamwork，要有合作精神。但實(shí)際上要想做大做強(qiáng)，任何人都需要與他人合作。所以其實(shí)在任何時(shí)代，合作伙伴的忠誠(chéng)度（loyalty）和契合度（compatibility）對(duì)成功都是至關(guān)重要的。
Sample sentences：
1. Twenty years ago， people could achieve success by working alone， such as starting a personal business， however， after the industrialization， cooperation have became one of the most important factors for success.
2. In fact， it’s essential to cooperate if one wants to succeed. As a consequence， no matter in any times， the degree of loyalty and compatibility of partners is crucial.
Factor 3： Competition（競(jìng)爭(zhēng)）
在很大程度上，成功是一個(gè)相對(duì)性（relative）的概念，而非絕對(duì)性的（absolute）概念，也就是說(shuō)衡量一個(gè)人是否成功在于他在某個(gè)特定的圈子中能否脫穎而出。所以，競(jìng)爭(zhēng)環(huán)境（competitive environment）是一個(gè)重要的影響因素（factor）。
Sample sentences：
1. As the explosion of population， the world has been becoming increasing competitive； as a consequence， it’s harder to stand out nowadays than in the past.
2. Competition and opportunities coexist， the more competitive， the more opportunities there are. Consequently， it’s not sensible to assert it’s easier to succeed in our age than in the past.
