托福独立写作对于中国考生来说是一个很大的考验，那么接下来就和出国留学网来看看2020年托福独立写作高分指南。
段落分析
一、审题、确定托福立场、列出理由
（只需要在草稿纸上用英文单词或汉语列出各个理由，防止遗忘），最少3分钟最多5分钟。
要避免两个极端：
a.用时太少，理由没有想清楚就开始写，不仅造成文章逻辑结构不清，还会引起行文中频繁的修正，欲速则不达；b.用时太多，不要追求一次思考就能把每一条理由及相关例证都想出来。其实想出两条之后就可以动笔，各个理由的例证可以写到该段时边思考边写。这一点你不必怀疑，只要你的思维还是正常的，一定能做到。
二、托福正文写作最少22分钟最多26分钟：
a.各段写作时，注意对段落的不同部分给予不同的重视。主题句给予最大重视，注意炼句，别说你不想写主题句，主题句可以使读者和笔者本人更清晰该段落写什么。各段中支持性细节写作不必遵循相同的模式。
有n种选择可供参考：1.举具体事例；2.说对方相对缺点；3.使用数据；4.使用假想例子；5.使用类比、比喻、引用等修辞手段来论述。哪一种你最容易想出来，就用哪一种。
b.考前将文章开头、结尾、例证、让步等各种句型背熟练，并且练习和模考时把他们用熟，要象做完型填空一样对待考场作文。别试图在考场上再去临时决定比如哪种开头好，怎样结尾好。使用自己选种的套话。
c.当被告知还有5分钟结束时，一般你应该已经写到最后一条理由，或者已经在做结尾。要确保文章有结尾段（不排除将它和最后一条理由的末段结合在一起的可能性）。
三、检查需要1-3分钟，有侧重点地检查：
a.句法：确保每句话是完整的，有谓语，且简单句只有一个谓语。
b.时态：文章绝大部分使用的是一般现在时；一般现在时第三人称要使用单数；使用过去发生的事例时用的是过去时；
c.主谓一致按此三步，持续练习5篇以上，可以确保时间问题。
如何在30分钟行文的整个过程中保持书面整洁：
A、TWE要求必须用铅笔写作文，你要自己准备好铅笔和橡皮。橡皮要有韧性，太硬会擦破纸，有错误要擦干净再改；
B、第一遍写作时要求字迹不要太大也不要太小，通常一行写10-12个左右单词为宜。如果书法不好，可以在考前练习写一下斜体的26个字母。
开头方式
一、用副词开头
（1） 副词修饰全句
Luckily， he didn’t know my phone number； otherwise， he would bother me.
Incredibly， Helena got straight A in her school report this semester.
Interestingly， cats and dogs can hardly get along well in a house.
修饰全句常用的副词有：
obviously / undoubtedly
apparently / fortunately
clearly / unfortunately
incredibly / luckily
unluckily / surprisingly
frighteningly
这些副词大多数表示说话人对全句的看法，在意思上相等与 “It is ... 形容词that ...” 。
举个例子：
Obviously， he is nervous about the test. =It is obvious that he is nervous about the test.
Unfortunately， he tripped over and fell in the mud. =It is unfortunate that he tripped over and fell in the mud.
（2） 强调副词
Hurriedly， the man drew me a scratch map to show me the direction.

Financially， she is independent， but emotionally she is dependent.
二、用插入语开头，表示说话人的态度，或使句子的意思更加准确

Generally speaking， winter in Vancouver is gloomy.
类似的插入语有：
no wonder，no doubt
in other words，in my opinion
in conclusion，in fact
as a matter of fact
三、用形容词、并列形容词或形容词短语开头，修饰句子的主语，表示主语的特征或状态
