托福写作如何避免重复用词？这2个方法你要了解

托福写作对于词汇部分的评分有一条基本要求是尽量避免用词重复，毕竟本来就不算长的文章篇幅中反复看到几个词汇的出现，给考官带来的阅读体验想必也不会太好，造成扣分在所难免。下面小编就来为大家具体介绍托福写作中避免用词重复的实用方法。

1. 通过简化避免用词重复

想要尽量避免重复使用同样的词汇，或者有的时候虽然词汇没有重复，但意思却有重复的情况，这时候考生该可以做一些简化的工作。例如下面这个例子：

The farm my grandfather grew up on was large in size.

large 对一个farm来说就是size方面的large，所以in size可以去掉，改为：

The farm my grandfather grew up on was large.

更简洁的表达方式为：

My grandfather grew up on a large farm.

2. 用词组替换单词避免重复

有时一个词组可以用一个更简单的单词来替换，例如：

My grandfather has said over and over again that he had to work on his parents’ farm.

这里的over and over again就可以改为repeatedly，显得更为简洁：

My grandfather has said repeatedly that he had to work on his parents’ farm.
