Pangkalahatang-ideya ng Gawain

Professor Gupta

We are looking this week at different ways businesses market their products and services especially nontraditional methods. One thing that marketers pay close attention to is online reviews of their products. A business might include customer reviews on their website or carefully monitor the reviews on third-party sites. I would like you to discuss your own experiences with online reviews. Do you find them useful when deciding whether or not to buy a product or service? Why or why not?

Student A Claire

I think online reviews are a great source of information because they are written by ordinary customers who are like me. For instance, when I read a restaurant review by a professional food critic, I'm not interested in some of the details that are included, like how the food is prepared. I'm more interested in aspects like the quality of the food and the service, which regular customers usually comment on.

Student B Andrew

To me, online reviews have some real problems. First, people are more likely to post reviews after a bad experience than after a good one. As a result, what you read is often weighted toward the negative. Also, you have no way of knowing whether reviewers know what they are talking about or even if they actually bought and used the product they are reviewing.

I concur with Claire’s perspective that reading online reviews is actually an effective strategy for people to buy a product or a service. This conviction is primarily due to online reviews that incorporating different kinds of information and using experiences from customers can offer substantial evaluations of a specific product. And these information is quite essential to make an decision effectively. Take myself as an example. When I was a graduate student, I need to buy a computer that can meet my needs such as making graphs and forms of budget or presentation. After I viewed sufficient online reviews about others recommendations, using experiences, and if it worth the price, I chose to buy Apple Macbook within a day rather than spent a lot of time on contrasting different computers for a week. And it supported my requirements well. Therefore, I firmly believe that online reviews are useful though it might expressing negative quality.

25. 3 任务完成度

这篇文章在回答问题方面做得相当不错,能够明确表达观点并举例说明。但是,为了更好地完成任务,建议在以下方面进行改进:首先,在引用学生A和学生B的观点时,可以对他们的论据进行更详细的分析和讨论。其次,在语言使用和语法方面需要注意一些错误,并尽量使用更丰富的词汇和句式。

示例1: Instead of "Take myself as an example.", you can write "For instance, when I was in need of a computer as a graduate student, I found online reviews to be extremely helpful."

示例2: Instead of "And it supported my requirements well.", you can write "The MacBook I purchased based on the reviews not only met but exceeded my expectations."

4. 文章结构与组织

从组织结构上看,这篇文章基本上具备了清晰的结构,包括引言、正文和结论。然而,在以下方面仍有改进空间:首先,可以在引言部分简要介绍两位学生的观点,并明确自己将支持哪一方。其次,在正文部分,可以逐一讨论支持自己观点的论据,并在每个段落中使用明确的过渡词。最后,在结论部分,可以总结全文观点并给出一个更有力的结尾。

示例1: In the introduction, you can write "In this essay, I will discuss my agreement with Claire's view on the usefulness of online reviews and provide examples to support my stance."

示例2: For a clearer transition between ideas, you can write "Another reason why I find online reviews useful is that they provide a diverse range of opinions from various customers, allowing me to make a more informed decision."

Section Title: The Utility of Online Reviews in Decision-Making

In agreement with Claire's viewpoint, I believe that utilizing online reviews is an effective approach when considering the purchase of a product or service. This belief stems from the fact that online reviews encompass diverse information and insights from customers, providing comprehensive evaluations of specific products. Such information is crucial for making well-informed decisions. For instance, as a graduate student, I needed to purchase a computer capable of creating graphs and handling budgeting tasks or presentations. By examining numerous online reviews detailing others' recommendations, user experiences, and assessments of value for money, I was able to confidently choose an Apple MacBook within a day instead of spending an entire week comparing various computers. Ultimately, the MacBook met my needs perfectly. Consequently, despite the potential for negative feedback, I maintain that online reviews are indeed valuable resources in the decision-making process.

In response to professor’s thought-provoking question, I firmly believe that the airline should not impose environmental tax on air travel. First, I concur with Claire’s perspective that extra taxes would not yield substantial benefits on solving air pollution problem and instead increase airplane prices without addressing environmental issues. Furthermore, I would like to emphasize that the increased airplane price would only exacerbate passengers’ financial stress. For instance, a working-class dad who struggling to make ends meet cannot afford the additional price on air travel of a common family trip any longer since this may exceed their already tight budget. While Andrew’s argument regarding the potential positive effects on imposing environmental tax on air travel holds the merits, it overlooks the fact that it may cause people to in search for other time-consuming transportation rather than the efficient one. This may lead people to waste their time or even miss the gold time of some events such as taking an important exam and meeting a family member in a sick bed. Therefore, envying additional tax probably proves no such beneficial.

Paano Sinusukat ang Academic Discussion

Sinusukat ang gawaing TOEFL Academic Discussion batay sa opisyal na scoring rubric ng ETS. Sinusuri ng AI evaluation ang bawat sagot sa maraming dimensyon.

Kaugnayan at Kontribusyon

Tinutugunan ba ng sagot ang tanong at nagbibigay ba ito ng makabuluhang kontribusyon sa diskusyon?

Paggamit ng Wika

Kawastuhan ng gramatika, saklaw ng bokabularyo, at kalidad ng istruktura ng pangungusap.

Pagpapalawak at Suporta

Malinaw bang naipaliwanag ang mga ideya gamit ang tiyak na halimbawa at malinaw na pangangatwiran?

Karaniwang Pattern sa mga Sagot

Batay sa pagsusuri ng mga isinumiteng sagot ng user para sa gawaing ito, narito ang mga karaniwang pattern na napansin sa mga sagot ng estudyante.

Maraming estudyante ang naglalahad ng malinaw na opinyon ngunit kulang sa tiyak na sumusuportang halimbawa.

Ang mga matitibay na sagot ay direktang tumutukoy sa reading passage at sa pananaw ng ibang kalahok.

Ang mga sagot na mas mataas ang iskor ay gumagamit ng iba't ibang istruktura ng pangungusap at akademikong bokabularyo.

Mahalaga ang pamamahala ng oras — ang mga sagot na parang nagmamadali ay may posibilidad na mababa ang iskor sa pagpapalawak.

Mga Tip sa Pag-aaral

1

Basahing mabuti ang prompt at tukuyin ang lahat ng bahagi ng tanong bago sumulat.

2

Isangguni ang reading passage at ang opinyon ng ibang estudyante sa iyong sagot.

3

Gumamit ng tiyak na halimbawa para suportahan ang iyong pangunahing punto — iwasan ang mga heneral na pahayag.

4

Layunin ang 120-150 salita. Hindi laging mas maganda ang mas mahabang sagot; mas mahalaga ang linaw at focus.

5

Mag-practice ng mga sagot na may takdang oras (10 minuto) para makabuo ng fluency sa ilalim ng kondisyon ng eksam.
