 在上一章節(jié)中，筆者已經(jīng)為大家介紹了新托福獨立寫作中最常用的論證方式組合，即因果和舉例法的組合，在本節(jié)中，朗閣海外考試研究中心將繼續(xù)為各位介紹其他論證方式組合，首先我們看到的是假設(shè)和舉例法以及因果法的組合。下面我們來看一個例子：

First of all, I want to say that obstacles make people stronger. By overcoming difficulties people gain priceless and essential knowledge and experience. If one has to struggle with a disease he will become stronger either in a physical way or in a mental way. A person becomes more patient, more self-confident and more attentive. These qualities will help him to win his disease.

    在這個主體段里，作者首先進行了假設(shè)論證，由“if”引導的條件狀語從句開始，假設(shè)某個人在與疾病作斗爭并且戰(zhàn)勝了它以后，此人在身體或心理層面一定會比以前更堅強，從而可以得出后面的結(jié)論，即由于人生中面對挫折，所以一個人可以變得更有耐心，自信等。這樣的一種組合論證方式，其優(yōu)點在于無須給出親身經(jīng)歷或者一個具體的例子，直接建立在一個“虛構(gòu)”的人或事上，同時借助于之后進行的“結(jié)果”論證，使得這個假設(shè)的成立更具有一定的說服力。在舉不出合適的例子或者不知道該說什么的時候，使用這一組合的優(yōu)點就不言而喻了。接下來我們再來看一個例子：

For example, if people are negotiating it is very important to have a face-to-face communication. It is very important to see during a negotiation how one's opponent is moving, is he nervous or relaxed, what he is doing, etc. Scientists say that the body language and facial gestures can say many things about a person, his strong and weak sides, his traits, manners and even habits.

    在這個段落中，作者先假設(shè)了“談判溫馨提示：為不影響您的學業(yè)，來校區(qū)前請先電話咨詢，方便我校安排相關(guān)的專業(yè)老師為您解答
