大家好，我是SK2的Rosa，
常常有同学问我写作24，要如何能够再冲高呢？
其实，写作要到达28-30分，要看你是否能够了解ETS评分的思维，

以下我列出了托福写作里最严重的十大问题，假如你看得出来，代表你本身
逻辑很好，也具备考到30分的实力喔！;D
*以下练习，建议准备纸笔，也可以印下来方便练习，把你认为各段最主要
的问题写出来，再比对文末的解答。
这是题目：
The government wants to improve the education of high schools, and
there are two following plans:
a. Choose a group of teachers and train them first, and then let
them go back to their schools and train other teachers
b. Train teachers online, with online materials and let them study
individually
接下来，你会看到立场、理由不同的十个段落，请试着写下你认为各段最严
重的问题。
Problem 1:
First, when improving the education of high schools, the government
needs to control the budget, and an online training system can save more
money. For example, the government only needs to hire few professors
to record the online teaching materials. Moreover, the online materials
can be used unlimited times and the government does not have to spend
extra time to examine the materials. Therefore, training teachers online
does not only save money but also save time. On the other hand, training
teachers face by face need to more budgets for hiring the training
professors and renting the teaching space. In addition, the government
should pay for transportation of teachers. As a result, training teachers
face by face costs more money.
Problem 2:
Second, the government puts emphasis on efficiency but choosing a
group of teachers and letting them to train other takes longer time. For
instance, it takes a lot of time to train the selected teachers and more
time to prepare for teaching the other teachers. After their preparation,
the selected teachers have to spend more time training others. Consequently,
it needs a tremendous amount of time to finish the whole training process.
However, if the government chooses to do online training, all teachers can
study by themselves. That is to say, teachers don’t need to wait for
others to train them. Consequently, online training saves much more time.
Problem 3:
Third, some people say that learning through online system to
improve the quality of education is not effective. For instance,
when using the online learning system, the teachers might
encounter a lot of questions and have no one to ask. Moreover,
they might not be able to come up with the most correct
information when they teach. Therefore, they might teach students
out-dated information or even information which is down right
wrong. Yet, they can actually stop and replay the program anytime
they want so this method of learning online is actually quite
effective.
Problem 4:
Secondly, the government places emphasis on budget, but training a
group of teachers can not save more money. To illustrate, the
amount of the teachers are hundreds, the government has to find
the different or big places to accommodate them, and the rent of
space is a cost. Furthermore, to achieve the better outcome, the
government has to hold many courses or forums, and the lecture fee
is a cost too. On the other hand, if the government trains the
teacher with online materials, the government just need to set up
a website and pay the salaries for the group of the training
scholars and the network engineers. Obviously, training online can
save more money.
Problem 5:
Secondly, the government puts emphasis on their reputation but
training teachers online might decrease the government’s
reputation. To elaborate, parents admire teachers who were trained
in a face-to- face way on a regular basis in Taiwan. If the
government holds several training programs, the teachers can
absorb many practical knowledge from each other immediately on a
regular basis. Thus, the government will leave a great impression
on the participants and parents. However, if the government only
provides an online training, it might be difficult for the
teachers to figure out a better teaching technique. Hence, the
teachers might be annoyed and criticize the government severely.
Problem 6:
To begin with, the government cares about efficiency, and training
a set of seed teachers can allow the government to improve its
efficiency. Take my science teacher in elementary school as an
example. He was chosen in a six-month training program in which
his obligation was to learn the cutting-edge technology knowledge
in the United State and to teach what he learned to other
teachers in Taiwan. To be more specific, in the future, after the
program is finished, there will be over 35 well-trained teachers
in Taiwan with the up-to- date information. Hence, it is an
appropriate way to improve government’s efficiency.
Problem 7:
Furthermore, the government wants to save budget and to let the
trained teachers to go back to their schools and train other
teachers can help them do so. For example, every year, the
government in Taiwan sends 20 seed high school teachers to Germany
to learn how to facilitate students to learn by doing actual
tasks. Moreover, these teachers are required to train another 40
teachers in Taiwan when they are back. By doing so, the Taiwan
government saves 30 million New Taiwan dollars one a yearly basis.
On the other hand, if the government does not train this small
group of teachers, then it might have to spend billions of dollars
to hire more professional teachers or renovate the equipment and
facilities to improve the quality of education. Therefore, it is
not a smart method to save money.
Problem 8:
First of all, the government places emphasis on budget control,
and training teachers to improve the education of high schools by
using online materials can save a lot of money. When the
government uses Internet program to train high school teachers.
The government only needs to hire the experts once and records the
class then puts it online. And then the government does not need
to spend a lot of money printing the paper materials. So, training
teachers online can save more than one million. But If the
government chooses a group of teachers and trains them first. It
needs to pay the traveling fee and preparing lunch for the
teachers. The government needs to rent a place for the training
courses. Thus, it may cost 20 times more than training online.
Problem 9:
Finally, the government is always busy, and choosing a group of
teachers to train first needs a lot of time. Take the Taiwanese
government for example. The government has to take part in several
projects at 1 time. Also, the employees of the government need to
coordinate the time and booking the space for the course. What is
more, the government might not have six free months to finish the
training process, or the time needed to repeat the program year
after year. Therefore, if the government chooses to train a small
group of teachers, it would waste too much time.
Problem 10:
Secondly, when improving the high school education, the government
cares about the quality of the training. Therefore, if the
government designs an online program to train teachers using
online material and letting them be trained separately, it can
maintain higher training quality by using Youtube, GOOGLE, or
other apps. For instance, when government trains teachers online,
it provides standard courses. Moreover, every online course has
the same test to validate and monitor the training results.
Accordingly, all high school teachers are trained under the same
quality. On the contrary, if the government lets a group of
teachers trained first and go back to train others, some training
information may be transmitted incorrectly. In the end, each
teacher may gain different knowledge.
