TOEFL Essay Writing

I want some essay writing example for TOEFL Internet-based test (iBT) for preparation so can you provide me?

There are two writing tasks on the next generation TOEFL Internet-based test (iBT).

The first is an integrated task that requires test takers to read, listen, and then write in response to what they have read and heard.

The second is an independent task where test takers support an opinion on a topic.

The rubric or scoring guide for Writing describes the characteristics of responses at each level for both independent and integrated writing tasks.

Task 1: The Reading-Listening-Writing Integrated Task

Via computer delivery, examinees are given some time to read and take notes if they wish about a reading passage. They then listen to a lecture and are allowed to take notes during the lecture.

• that their response will be evaluated for content (accuracy and completeness), and for appropriate use of language and sentence structure;
• that their response should show that they understand the major ideas and important information in the passage and lecture, and their relationship; and
• that “This writing task is not asking for your opinion; it is asking you to give an answer, in an organized and well-written way, based on the information in the passage you read and short lecture you heard.”
• that typically an effective response would be 150-225 words.

First of all, a group of people has a wider range of knowledge, expertise, and skills than any single individual is likely to possess. Also, because of the numbers of people involved and the greater resources they possess, a group can work more quickly in response to the task assigned to it and can come up with highly creative solutions to problems and issues. Sometimes these creative solutions come about because a group is more likely to make risky decisions that an individual might not undertake. This is because the group spreads responsibility for a decision to all the members and thus no single individual can be held accountable if the decision turns out to be wrong. Taking part in a group process can be very rewarding for members of the team. Team members who have a voice in making a decision will no doubt feel better about carrying
