2014年8月30日托福独立写作范文两篇，托福独立写作范文一：

Friends are those who see us through in all the ups and downs of our lives While new acquaintances often bring surprises and vitality, to maintain a close relationship with a couple of old friends can never be easy. As for me, to nourish a long-lasting friendship is of more importance.

The first reason is that to keep an old fried close has to stand the test of time. Fresh affection can always be exciting, but it wouldn't be long before certain problems show up and two people no longer see eye to eye. Studies have shown that for the first three months everything goes well, but after the honeymoon period, any relationship has to face disagreements and divergences. As a problem-free friendship is non-existent, the ability to reconcile and the willingness to make compromise would mean a lot. I met Tina ten years ago when we both were invited to a local gallery opening. Both passionate about paintings and sculpture, we found us share a lot in common and hit it off quite soon. Naturally, two art lovers become close friends and later on we chose to be roommates That's when we realized it took a lot more than just a common interest to stay friends. She had a dog but I was allergic to animal fur; and she enjoyed Rock'n Roll while loud music gave me nothing but a headache. Different lifestyle gives us fresh perspective at first, but turns into the source of every argument after the first year. If we chose to part ways, we could spare both some inconvenience but ended up looking for new companions. Instead, we had some serious talks about ways we wanted things to be. Then she gave her dog up for adoption and I learnt to make peace with heavy metal music. In this decade-long friendship, we all made compromises, which was hard but was all worthwhile in the end.

托福独立写作高分范文二：

The charm of friendship has enjoyed so much popularity that a great many people are deeply absorbed into the seemingly shining adeptness in broadening their range of acquaintances. Unlike those with critical thinking and independent judgment, some people are easily affected by the vanity of receiving a nodding “hello” from someone they barely know. Contrary to the publicly aroused opinion that one is supposed to make as many new friends as possible to add to one’s happiness, I, without doubt, maintain that as to brighten hopes for more happiness, the ability to maintain the tested friendship within a small group of people is surely of greater importance.

Admittedly, countless people still live under the impression that happiness can be synonymous with the ever-broadening circle of friends. They are forever talking about the enhancement of their communicative skills, the joy and fun shared and experienced, and the obviously roused sense of accomplishment. However, this heaven-like scene is nothing but their delusion. They fail to mention the merely superficial smiles and greetings, or about the time and energy dawdled away on the way to new friendship. Why people are prepared to associate the ability to make easy access to new companionship with the more important factor in deciding their happiness is beyond me. They could lift their happiness to a higher realm if they chose to give it a second thought.
