我们要想写出好的作文，平时就要注重素材的积累，有的同学觉得找不到素材积累的地方，小编这里就来和大家分享一个隐藏素材库——综合写作。很多同学考前刷了很多篇综合写作，那么大家有发现它的阅读文本就是隐藏的写作素材库了吗？

很多同学都觉得Reading Section的阅读文本词汇过难，能认识就不错了；但是和Reading Section对比，综合写作的阅读文本更简单易读，毕竟是ETS官方出品，里面的议论文行为结构，论证逻辑，语言用词都非常值得考生学习，也很容易能在实际写作中运用起来。我们可以从以下几个角度利用综合写作阅读文本，积累素材。

1、积累词汇和地道表达

以TPO 11为例，这篇文章讲现在人们文学读得越来越少带来的消极影响。其中有这么两个段落：

While there has been a decline in book reading generally, the decline has been especially sharp for literature. This is unfortunate because nothing else provides the intellectual stimulation (智力激发) that literature does. Literature encourages us to exercise our imaginations (锻炼想象力), empathize with others (和他人共情), and expand our understanding of language (扩大我们对语言的理解). So by reading less literature, the reading public is missing out on important benefits (错失重要的好处).

Unfortunately, missing out on the benefits of literature is not the only problem. What are people reading instead? Consider the prevalence (流行) of self-help books on lists of best sellers (畅销书). These are usually superficial (肤浅的), poorly written (文笔粗糙的), and intellectually undemanding (无需思考的).

上述下划线部分的词汇和表达可以在独立写作中运用。比如2020/8/16考的这道独立真题：The reading students do on their own is as important as, or even more important than the reading assigned by their teachers.

这篇文章我们可以选取老师布置的阅读更重要这个观点。在论证中，我们可以写老师布置的阅读很多都是文学(literature)，能给学生带来很多好处，这里就可以把上文首段的表达用上；也可以说学生自己选择的阅读质量不高，具体的形容词汇可以把第二段的表达用上。

2、积累综合写作结构句表达

以TPO 8为例，这篇文章的写法是，阅读中提到一个原有认知，并且说一些批判家批判/反驳/辩驳了这些原有认知。所以这种行文结构本身，就和我们综合写作的听力反驳阅读的结构是一样的。TPO 8中有很多这样可以用作模板的句子，摘录如下：

However, some critics have raised doubts about ... They claim that ...

Critics thus argue that...

Critics are also skeptical about...

However, critics complain that ...Critics point out that...

Critics have also questioned ...Critics claim that...

我们完全可以把 critics 换成 the lecturer，用作我们平时综合写作的结构框架句。

托福写作素材积累之综合写作就和大家分享到这里了，当然，除此之外，综合写作每篇文章的行文结构，和每个主体段的论证逻辑也都有很多值得我们学习和参考的地方，同学们可以多多挖掘，充分利用手头的每一份综合写作文本呀~建议平时在做完综合写作练习之后，再精读一遍文章，摘录词汇和地道表达哦。
