在托福写作中，教育类话题作文算是高频话题之一，今天小编就为大家准备了托福写作教育类话题：自主阅读还是规定阅读的一些资料，希望对备考托福的小伙伴们有所帮助，积累更多的语料。

　　【题目】The reading students do on their own is as important as or more important than that assigned by the teachers 自主阅读还是完成老师布置的阅读作业。(2016年3月11日)

　　【头脑风暴】

　　少年时代，我暑假阅读的书目是老师推荐的传统正能量的书籍：《红岩》，《地球的红飘带》， 《钢铁是怎样炼成的》等。我读了，但是，并没有受到革命主义的熏陶。令我兴奋是保尔柯察金和冬妮娅初次见面的美好，令我感怀的是他们懵懂的青春爱情。

　　高中时代，小鹏哥自由选择，畅游书海，一本书过一天的日子美好而难忘。我依然记得阅读安妮宝贝给我带来的触动：行云流水的文风，弥散悲伤的故事，频繁使用的句号。读到意犹未尽时，在晚上6：00，自己骑着自行车，去联合书城，毫不犹豫地再买一本她的新书……

　　【作家立场】"开卷有益"是对的，无论是完成布置的阅读作业，还是随心所欲地阅读心爱的书籍。读书，使我们成熟思想、拓展视野、反思自我。但是，我认为，自主阅读更加值得推荐。

　　【思路拓展】

　　1.兴趣是最好的老师，阅读自己喜欢的书籍，可以感受更多的快乐，激发阅读兴趣，提高阅读的效率。例如，我喜欢阅读文学，惯性的阅读和思考以及后续的写作练笔，使我成为小有名气的校园作家。

　　2.如果学生们一贯地由老师安排阅读任务 ，他们可能失去自由选择的能力 ，一旦老师不再布置阅读任务，他们会茫然不知所措。

　　3.老师布置的阅读任务，通常经过了深思熟虑，经过了教学实践的检验，帮助童鞋避免阅读的盲目性。

　　【范文赏析】

　　【首段】背景介绍 + 作家立场

　　Sure enough, to open a book is always beneficial. Reading, by occupying time so constructively, can make us feel contented, with no time for boredom. Whether reading books arranged by teachers or to enjoy our favorite works has sparkled a debate. I always believe that to read books that really interest us can best stimulate our reading zeal and tap our infinite potentials.

　　【二段】第一次支持作家立场

　　Free reading, as a superior option, has many advantages. It provides relaxation for leisure hours and thus kindles our reading interests. Indeed, interest is the best teacher. To read good books can be a habit-formation only when we find plenty of fun in reading. More precisely, the pleasure of reading lies in reading itself. For example, as a fancier of literature, I used to read a great many literary works. Reading those thought-provoking books stirred my vivid imagination, stimulated my creativity, and deepened my insights into life. On the contrary, I might slacken my efforts atreading and my reading enthusiasm might wither if I was forced to read unfavorite books

　　【三段】第二次支持作家立场

　　Secondly，students might loose the ability to make independent choice if they only read at the guidance of teachers. By that I mean, it is highly possible that those who only read books recommended by educators will feel at sea once teachers once they lose their exterior incentives.Meanwhile, one man's meat is another man's poison. People's reading tastes differ greatly, some reading assignments designed by teachers,even though are meaty and classic, might fail to arouse every individual's reading impulses and arouse their sympathies. In this sense, reading might lose its charm.

　　【三段】让步对立观点之合理性 + 加以反驳

　　Indeed, I have to concede that most reading assignment designed or recommended by teachers have withstood the test of instructional experiment. Those reading lists, in most cases, are carefully chosen. Thereby, to do some reading praised by teachers can help students avoid aimless reading and save precious time. What I want to rebut, however, is that students should be encouraged to make their own reading choices，what educators need to do maybe just provide timely guidance and useful suggestions.

　　【尾段】再次亮明观点 + 总结理由

　　In sum, my standpoint is that to inspire students to make free reading choices is one of the best approaches to ignite their reading interests and motivate their reading zeal.
