托福独立写作话题素材拓展：价值
对于很多TOEFLer来说，托福独立写作最让人惆怅的并不是不会写，而是不知道该写啥?托福独立写作部分话题涉及各类领域，考察考生对特定话题的独立观点阐述， 而让很多考生感到头疼的恰恰不是语言表达本身，而是拿到题目不知从何写起，遇到自己之前不熟悉不了解的话题，往往大脑一片空白。还有些同学因此走极端开始进行各类素材的疯狂记忆积累，背到最后舌头打结却并不能清楚明晰自己到底都背了啥。
其实，托福独立写作的思路拓展我们完全可以“功夫在平时”，通过日常阅读和听力材料积累必要的话题素材，不求字字句句铭记只需大概了解特定范畴，再在日常托福备考中注意练习应用，学会触类旁通融会贯通，考场上自然可以心中有数。下面我们来看一些和价值有关的话题素材拓展。
Sample Question：
Do you agree or disagree with the following statement?
People buy things not because they need them but because others have them.
“价值”是一个很宽泛的概念，针对上述题目，我们应该从对于一个人而言，影响一样物品到底有没有价值的因素有哪些这样的角度来思考。
factor 1: Inclination(倾向)
倾向也就是一个人的偏好(preference or propensity)，付费购买任何物品的最大影响因素就是个人是否喜欢该物品。
Sample sentences:
1. For most people, the preference is the key factor which influences their decision of purchase, especially when the product costs a lot.
2. Sometimes, when people don’t need to concern about the price, then the factor of propensity may have a lower priority.
Factor 2: Criteria(标准)
对不同的人来说，衡量一个物品是否值得的标准是不一样的，这跟人的视角(perspective)经历都有关系。
Sample sentences:
1. For different people, whether something is worth to buy depends on his or her perspective.
2. Even gender makes a difference. For female, a 100 dollar fashion bag maybe much worthier than a 100 dollar computer, however, for male, it’s just the reverse.
Factor 3: Environment(环境)
如果一个人生长的环境是理性(rational)或者节俭的(frugal)，那么周围人对他(她)的影响是甚微的。
Sample sentences:
1. If someone was cultivated in a frugal family, it’s hard for him or her to buy something unworthy even others purchase.
2. Compared with female, males are much more rational, so they are less inclined to purchase things not wanted only because others have them.
以上就是关于“value价值”相关的托福独立写作素材，希望大家在之后的托福备考中注意练习，写作素材切忌死记硬背，只有融会贯通进行理解与应用才能收获最佳备考效果。
