3月中旬的托福考试马上就开始了，考试题目缩小到一定范围就不用心慌了。为此，出国留学网为大家整理了《2014年托福考试3月16日作文预测》，仅供参考!
预测作文题目：
Do you agree or disagree with the following statement: Your job has more effect on your happiness than your social life does.
观点：同意工作对人的幸福感影响更大。
1) 人是否幸福和经济状况有关。而对大多数人来说，工作是经济来源。一般来说，当人没有经济上的忧虑的时候，人就会比较幸福。
2) 幸福还意味着强烈的成就感。一般来说，工作比社交生活更容易带来成就感或者挫败感。当一个人工作做得好，得到同事和老板认可的时候，他会觉得很幸福，因为觉得自己有用。而当一个人工作做不好，被批评的时候，就会不开心。
3) 工作占据一个人大部分的时间和精力。当你享受工作的时候，你的大部分时间都会很开心。而当你做一份自己讨厌的工作时，你一天都不会开心。
范文：
I tend to believe that one’s job exerts influence on one’s happiness. In other words, whether you enjoy your job or not determines your happiness. Three reasons can be used to justify my opinion.
To begin with, a person’s happiness has something to do with 和…有关his/her financial conditions and generally speaking, job decides a person’s economic conditions. So if you have a well-paid job, you are less likely to suffer from financial cares财政忧虑. Although we are told that happiness has nothing to do with money, I still believe that without basic necessities, it is next to impossible for people to be really happy. Take many Chinese youngsters for example. A majority of young people aging from 18-30 are unhappy nowadays. The reason is simple: housing prices in nearly every city, large or small, are escalating 增长: ten years ago, 100,000dollars could buy an apartment in Beijing. Now to buy the same apartment, you have to pay 500,000dollars. To rent a well-equipped apartment, you have to pay at least 500dollars, while the average salary in Beijing is 1000dollars. Rising housing prices, coupled with和...一起 stagnant停滞的 wages plague困扰youngsters and their parents. If those youngsters had a job which can bring them at least 50,000dollars a year, they would have the opportunity to rent or buy a decent apartment, therefore living a better life.
Second, happiness has a strong correlation with a sense of fulfillment 满足感. It is our job that produces most of our achievement. When we finish our work flawlessly 完美无瑕地, we are more likely to be happy, for the perfect work means a strong capacity that not everybody has. But messing up 把…弄糟a work is definitely frustrating. It is true that social life can also have some impact on our happiness, but this effect is minimal and will not last for a long time. The reason is obvious: in our society, people evaluate a person by his/her ability to perform job-related tasks. A doctor will be excited with a complete recovery of his/her patient; a teacher feels perfect when his/her students achieve academic success. Nothing brings a person genuine 真正的 happiness than his/her job does.
Last but not least, it is your job that consumes much of your time. In this highly competitive modern society 高度竞争的现代社会, to maintain our competitive edge 保持竞争优势, we have to do our best. Spending 8 hours on one’s work is normal and most of us actually spend at least 10 hours on work on a daily basis 每天. If you love your work, then you are happy to get up early and enjoy the whole day, but if you hate your job, then the process would be a nightmare and you have to suffer. I consider myself happy because I choose my job and I enjoy the whole process. Even if I have to work overtime, I do not complain. But my sister is not so lucky. Despite the fact that her social life makes her happy, the happiness is transient 短暂的. When she goes back to work, she has to suffer.
From the discussion above, I firmly 坚定地 believe that a person’s happiness links with his/her job. A happy person is a person with a well-paid job, and at the same time, he/she does the job with passion and enthusiasm 热情.
