托福口语提高方法：巧用托福口语连接词

在看托福口语连接词之前，我们先来看一个例子：

下面是以为同学针对问题“What is an activity that you enjoy doing with your friends and why? Please include specific examples and details in your explanation.”的回答。

There are two reasons why I think so. One reason is that playing sports help us create strong bonds of friendship. It creates many opportunities of cooperation if we have to beat others when play in a group.I don’t like exercising alone. It is really boring if you have to repeat some moves.I am really interested in playing sports with my friends.

第一句是总起句，应该用表起始的连接词，如: in the beginning, in the first place,等等;第二句是第一句的解释，因此可以用that is to say, in other words等等来联系这些关系。表递进的关系，可以用moreover。下面我们来看看修改后的答案。

As far as I am concerned, I really love playing sports with my friends. There are two reasons why I think so. Actually, one reason is that playing sports helps us create strong bonds of friendship. You know, it creates many opportunities of cooperation if we have to beat others when play in a group. Also, I don’t like exercising alone. Because it is really boring if you have to repeat some moves. For these two reasons, I am really interested in playing sports with my friends.

托福口语有口音会被扣分吗?

托福考试的口语测试环节对学生而言是一个表现并展示自己口语技能的很好的机会。然而，一些学生可能会对自己的口音感到担忧，也会对考试材料中即将听到的口音担忧。

在您准备托福考试的口语测试环节时请记住以下 4 项要点。

1、每个人都会有口音! 即使以英语为母语的人也有不同的口音。世界上不存在两名口音相同的考生。

2、考试和备考资料包含许多不同口音的本土英语的实例，而您出国学习时会听到这些口音。在练习听力时多听这些口音可以帮助您熟悉世界各地的发音方式。

3、继续练习清晰的发音、恰当的句子结构和思维方式。如果您对这 3 项重要技能进行实战练习，将使托福®评分人更容易理解您的回答。评分人受过训练，负责对来自全世界考生的回答进行评分。所以口音这一因素不应影响您的分数。

4、流畅表达。强制性使用令自己感到不舒服的口音讲话不会对您的分数有帮助。与其追求完美的口音，不如使自己的回答合理又富有节奏性，即便有少许错误也可以接受。

托福口语范文：校园里最感兴趣的活动

题目

Which of the following volunteering activities inside the campus is the one you are most interested in?

--planting flowers

--picking garbage and plastic in the campus

--painting

Sample Response

Given the choice, I would be most interested in doing painting as a volunteer on campus.

I think painting is the best use of my skills because I am very good at it. I had a part-time job over the summer helping paint houses, so I can do a professional job. It makes sense for me to volunteer at something I do better than other students.

I also like the idea of painting because it is a permanent change to the campus. My contributions can be enjoyed by students for years to come. My painting can make the campus a more beautiful place.

For these reasons, I would most enjoy volunteering as a painter for my college.
