转载至小站托福的 高分标准解读
官方对于托福独立写作的满分要求如下：
An essay at this level largely accomplishes all of the following:
1. Effectively addresses the topic and task
2. Is well organized and well developed, using clearly appropriate explanations, exemplifications, and/or details
3. Displays unity, progression, and coherence
4. Displays consistent facility in the use of language, demonstrating syntactic variety, appropriate word choice, and idiomaticity, though it may have minor lexical or grammatical errors.
标准解读：
addresses the topic
在托福写作中，考生所表达的观点要和题目要求相关、一致。另外，考生所提供的例证也要切题，只有这样的例子才有说服力。
well organized & well developed
托福满分作文的行文组织要系统，有逻辑性。 考生在提出论点之后，必须寻找相关的例证来支持和充实自己的论点。 需要强调的是，在托福考试中，考生虽然可以发散地进行说理和寻找例证，但若是将自己所举的例证进行一定加工,按照由主到次、让步转折等顺序进行排列，则能更好显示出各个例证之间的逻辑关系，让举例或是说理论证的过程更有层次性。这样的文章才称得上well-organized and well-developed.
explanations, exemplifications and details

在托福写作中，考生提出观点之后必须要发散式地进行举例或是说理论证。具体包括解释原因，举例说明以及提供其它的细节信息。
unity, progression, and coherence
论点集中(unity)--所有的论据都指向论点;逻辑通畅(progression and coherence)--不同段落之间要连接紧密、衔接过渡自然并层层推进。
想要做到以上几点，考生需要合理地谋篇布局、进行最优化的段落分配并恰当地使用逻辑连接词。
variety
用词用句的多样性和变化性能有效地体现语言的丰富性以及使用技巧。
appropriate word choice and idiomaticity
托福写作要求考生根据语境选择“恰当的用词”。在托福写作中，考生不需要哗众取宠的用“大词、难词”来显示词汇量。 真正的高手是用简单但精确的词语来阐述深刻的道理。
minor errors
托福作文允许有错误存在。most一词表明一篇满分文章需要避免绝大部分的语法、用词错误。 同时这也表明个别的语法错误、用词不当以及拼写，标点符号和大小写等错误不影响一篇文章得满分。 对于托福写作来说，更重要的是文章的要点明确、逻辑通畅，语言的整体高水平。
