【2017-1-7】托福考试独立写作大范围机经预测【2016 独立写作出题规律】沪江托福教研团队将2016 年迄今为止所有考题，与往年真题进行查重比对，现总结出如下出题规律：2016 年起，独立写作的新题数量明显增加。

截止到今天为止的48 场考试中，有18 题为新题，30 题为旧题，新旧比例大致为1:2。

而15 年同期，只出现12 道新题。

三选一类题目增多，共考查6 次。

题目的难度也有所上升，题干长度明显增加。

一些题与往年旧题相类似，但问法不同，不再完全照搬旧题，而是通过改写、拓写，编成“新题”。

虽然实质上换汤不换药，但更长的题干、更具体的问法，会扰乱一些考生的思路，使考生更难抓住重点。

υ从题材来看，考查最多的依然是教育类（17 题），价值观类题目增多（8 题），价值观类题目主要针对有争议的话题，询问看法，如：成功的要素、最重要的品质、某事值不值得做，等等。

此外，工作类、环境类、活动类、家人朋友类、社会类、政府职能类题目，各占3-5 题。

独立写作题材越来越广泛，越来越贴近生活，出现很多社会热点话题。

这就要求同学们能够敏锐捕捉社会动向，并且有自己独到的见解，对于同学们的思考能力和写作水平都提出了更高的要求。

υ从出题规律来看，2016 年迄今为止，与往年重复的30 道旧题中，2011 年-2015 年的题目均有出现。

其中15 年重复10 次，14 年12 次，13 年4 次，12 和11 年均有2 次。

因此同学们可以着重复习15 年和14 年的题目。
