托福独立写作题目

Do you agree or disagree with the following statement:

It is better to make friends with intelligent people than with the people who have a good sense of humor.

与聪明的人交朋友比与幽默的人交朋友更好。

本题正好在上一次解析中提到，为 2015 年 6 月 27 日的老题。我当时的原话如下：

官方那帮出题的爸爸们，主要是选取生活中经常有争议且被谈论到的一些话题，提炼编写成独立写作题目。以前考过的朋友类话题如与聪明的人交朋友还是与幽默的人交朋友，确实就经常出现在大家茶余饭后的谈资当中。

就本题而言，居中应该是写的，因为聪明和幽默都是两个非常好的特质。聪明的人能在我们遇到困难的时候及时想到解决办法，帮助我们快速解决生活中的诸多问题。另外，他们做事往往很高效，同时也很上进，所以能从他们身上学到很多。而幽默的朋友能带来欢乐，正所谓笑一笑十年少，多跟幽默的人相处，即使生活中出现了一些麻烦不顺心之事，那也能笑而处之。

当然一边倒的写法在考场中肯定是可以的，可以列举其中一类人的 1-2 个优点，然后指出另一类的缺点。而且这道题有个讨巧的写法是，将两类人的优点集中到某一类上。比如，如果我们完全同意此论题，可以写聪明的人其实在生活中也很幽默，虽然有时不像逗逼那样随时能把大家逗得捧腹大笑，但是，他们能机智地找准时机，在非常适合的时候讲个笑话，博大家一笑。而如果完全不同意此论题，可以如我标题中所说，写幽默的人情商很高，这份聪明比智商高更难能可贵。不知看客们是否同意？

参考范文

It is normal to?have friends?throughout all stages of life: childhood, school, college, university, work, etc.?The friends we associate with, as is widely acknowledged, have a major impact on our social life and personal success. Thus, how to choose right friends and build healthy relationships with them becomes especially important. As to the two types of friends mentioned in the statement, I would say humorous friends are just as right and beneficial to us as are intelligent people.

It is often said that relationships are like elevators; they are either bringing us up or taking us down.Indeed, in any friendship, no one seems to want a friend that is negative or down all the time, and it is usually the people who are uplifting and positive that we naturally want to be around. Then, which types of friends will there be to offer a listening ear and help us put a positive spin on any situation? The answer probably has to be friends with a sense of humor, who can infuse our life with laugh and lift it on to another planet. Laugh, especially a belly one, draw some air full of oxygen into our heart, lungs and muscles. A great body of research evidence reveals that this process, like physical exercise, releases endorphins in the brain keeps us in a better mood. In the long term, the benefits for health are enormous as it provides pain relief and even improves our immune system. Thus, it is safe to say, the more we socialize with humorous people, the more we laugh, the longer we would live.

Compared with humorous people, although intelligent ones tend to socialize with others way much less, most of them are no introverts. Besides, they are passionately curious, some of who do have a great sense of humor. Therefore, making friends with them would be an exceedingly exciting journey one can experience. When dealing with daily chores or even major problems, smart people are the first one to see patterns between seemingly disparate ideas. Meanwhile they do not close themselves off to new ideas or opportunities, thereby lifting us out of troubled matters. To be more specific, with the help of intelligent friends who are able to seek out alternate viewpoints and weigh the evidence fairly, a certain student may score higher on the SAT, and a certain employee may carry out a marketing survey more efficiently.

To sum up, regardless of the criteria everyone sets when choosing a friend, both humorous friends and intelligent ones are worth us establishing new relationships with.?
