练习托福口语的5个实用方法和要点事项

1、独立口语表述的练习方法

根据熟悉的话题进行论述，用简单明了的语言说明一种观点或偏好，并用逻辑的语言对原因进行阐述;提出一项建议并用合理的解释规劝别人接受这个建议;

罗列出ETS常出现的热门话题，并针对这些话题做出一分钟的回答。用考试的真实境况，选择一道题，准备1分钟后，用自己的语言表达观点和阐述原由，从而达到提高口头表达能力的目的。

2、综合性口语表述的练习方法

平时的教科书就是不错的教材，对每个章节在结尾处提出的问题给予口头回答;

选读一篇长短适中的文章，提炼出纲领性的要点，在提炼要点的基础上锻炼用口头表述来进行总结;

针对一些相同话题的托福阅读和听力材料进行有效练习。并针对这些材料做笔记和做以下准备：学会口头提炼和总结这些阅读和听力材料;在此基础上口头表述重要的信息，并解释其中相互之间的关联;针对阅读和听力材料中的观点进行阐述;对其中提出的某个问题，阐述一种解决问题的方案，并给出相对应的理由。

3、平时创造英语学习的环境

功夫要从平时做起。有机会就通过录像机、录音机或光盘，有意识或无意识地跟听或跟说英语。也可以上网与北美人士交流。

虽说新托福口语主要考查交际、交流能力，但语音、语调和重音都会影响到成绩。建议平时多练习对墙、对镜子说话，力图达到自然流畅的程度。提供大家一个好办法：录下自己练习时的声音，扪心自问：别人是否能明白你所说的?

4、临场注意事项

考试时对着话筒答题要发音清晰，措辞要小心，特别是内容要求的重要词汇;语速要正常，不快不慢，表达结构简单明了，使用过渡词，使用熟悉的词汇。

注意所剩时间，掌握好节奏，把该表达的都表达出来。如时间允许，可加上简单的总结结尾或将重要观点总结一下。

5、熟悉考试规则，掌握答题要点

临场最重要：抓住重点。这个原则体现在多个方面。阅读短文时，注意话题和概括内容，不要试图记住一切细节。听录音对话和课堂讲座时，把握中心思想，特别注意说话人经常重复的关键词和概念。记笔记时，只记录重要观点、例证和原因。

然后，合理分配时间，仔细审题，参考笔记，考虑如何表达。注意：要有两到三个论据支持你所表达的观点.

托福独立+综合口语

Task1

One of your friends is often late for events and appointments, which makes other angry. You would like to help your fiend. What advice will you give your fiend to help avoid this problem in the future? Use specific details and examples in your advice.

范文：

Well, if one of my friends cannot do things on time, I would like to give some suggestions to him as follows. Firstly, set an alarm as possible as he can. Once he has an important schedule, an alarm gives him a reminder on time not to be late. And what is more, he can set the voice of alarm loud so that he will not forget. Secondly, ask somebody else to do things together. As we all know, doing things together with others rather than alone is kind of like intangible force. To sum up, these are the two of the advice that I can give to him.

Task 2

Some teachers think that it is important for students to sit in assigned seats, that is, to sit in the same place every day in class.Other teachers think that students should be allowed to choose where they will sit, and they allow them to sit in different seats on different days.Which do you think is better? Explain why.

范文：

From my perspective, I prefer the latter option. One obvious advantage of it is that students are able to have discussions conveniently with other group members who are focusing on the same projects. Proximity do facilitate this kind of discussions. Also, it may enable students to establish relationship with more people in the same class. If the seat is fixed, a student’s social connection is very likely to be confined to those around him. A typical case of it is that my nephew who was assigned to sit in the front row in high school, could not even name those sat in the back row after one semester.

Make Textbook List Available Earlier

Students always have to wait until the beginning of the semester to fnd out which textbooks they will need for their new courses. But since a lot of students register early for their courses, I think that the list for each course should be available immediately at the time of registration.This would give students more time to shop around to find less expensive textbooks. And it would also allow them to start work on the teaching for their new courses early.

Alexandra Brown

Narrator: Now listen to two students discussing the letter.

Man: Hey, did you see Alexandra’s letter?

Girl: Yeah, what do you think?

Man: Well, it’s great. She really makes some good points, like the thing with the university bookstore is, if you buy a brand new textbook, it can be pretty expensive and they usually have only a few used textbooks around. They’re cheaper of course, but they sell out quickly.

Girl: That’s true.

Man: So this would give students time to look around on their own. You know, maybe they could find the books they need online, get books a few months ahead of time using the internet.

Girl: I agree.

Man: So this way students might be able to save a little money.

Girl: Right, so what do you think about the second point, about the reading assignment?

Man: I agree with that, too. It just makes a lot of sense, because things get really busy when the semester first starts and it can be hard to find time to keep up with all of the assignments, but students usually have some free time right before the start of the semester.

Girl: So we’d have a good opportunity to do some preparation.

Man: Exactly.

问题：

The man expresses his opinion about the proposal described in the letter.Briefly summarize the proposal.Then state his opinion about the proposal and explain the reasons he gives for holding that opinion.

范文：

In the letter, Alexandra proposes the school to offer the list of textbooks needed for each course earlier. In this way, students can have more time to find cheaper textbooks and start working on their new courses early. In the conversation, the man supports her proposal. The man states that brand new textbooks are usually expensive and the used one, which are much cheaper, sell out quickly. And if the book list are available earlier, students may be able to get textbook online with less money. In addition, the man agree that at the beginning of each semester, students are often quite busy, hard to keep up with all the assignments. If they can have the textbooks earlier, they may have more time to make preparation ahead of the semester.

Procedural Memory

The memories people form when they learn names and facts are different from the memories they form when they learn how to perform a task.These memories of performing particular actions are called procedural memories. Procedural memories are memories of the process of performing a task that become automatic with practice. Once a task has been practiced, or repeated many times, procedural memories are established.These procedural memories allow people to perform the action automatically and to recall it relatively easily many years later.

Narrator:

Now listen to part of a lecture on this topic from a psychology class.

Professor: I've experienced this kind of thing myself. When I was a boy, I took guitar lessons. And in my first lessons, my guitar teacher, she showed me how to hold the guitar and how to place my fingers on the strings. Every day when I got home, I would play the guitar for hours. And after a couple years spending time like this playing at home, I can just pick up my guitar and play music without thinking about it.

But after college, I stopped playing. And for years, I never played or even picked up a guitar. Then the other day I found my old guitar. I was amazed to discover that when I picked it up I knew how to play, even though I hadn’t played for years. I just picked it up and right away I found that I still knew where to place my fingers to play the right notes.

Now I couldn’t explain to you exactly how I was moving each finger or exactly why I had to press the string at one point and not another, but I could still play my favorite songs.

问题：

Explain how the example from the lecture illustrates the concept of procedural memory.

范文：Procedural memory refers to the memory of performing a task that become automatic with practice. The professor uses his own experience as an example to explain this term. When he was a little boy, he took guitar lessons, where his teacher taught him the way to hold guitar and place his finger on the stings. After several years’ repetitive practice, he was able to play guitar automatically. Then one day, he found his guitar and was so surprised that he still knew how to play the guitar, even though he had stopped playing guitar for years after college. This explain that procedural memories enable people to perform a task automatically with less difficulties.

Task 5

听力文本：

Narrator: Listen to a conversation between two students.

Man: Hey, Lisa, how are you? Any big plans for summer break?

Girl: Well, I thought I knew what my plans were... But now I'm not sure.

Man: How come?

Girl: Well, you know how we are required to take a foreign language course before we graduate.

Man: Yeah.

Girl: I want to take it this summer since I am graduating next year and I will have a busy course schedule, so I signed to take a Russian course online over the summer because I am hoping to take a trip to Russia at some point.

Man: Online? That’s cool. You wouldn’t have to stay around campus and you could do it for home.

Girl: Exactly. You do everything over the internet, but not enough people signed up for the class so they cancelled it. Now I don’t know what to do, l still need to fulfill the requirement.

Man: Wow, could you take a Russian class on campus this summer instead of the online course?

Girl: Yeah, there is a regular Russian class being offered on campus and it has space, so I could sign up and just stay in the dorms this summer and live on campus.

Man: OK.

Girl: I was looking forward to being home the summer, though, and spending some time with my family. My sister is coming back from China, she’s working there for a year and I haven’t seen her.

Man: Oh, that’s disappointing.

Girl: I checked though and I could take a different language course online. There is one thing offered in Spanish.

Man: Great! So why don’t you just do that, you’d be able to spend time with your sister.

Girl: Yeah, but I am not that excited by taking Spanish. I thought it would be fun to learn Russian. It's more interesting to me, though at least this way I could get the requirement out of the way. So, I don't know...

问题：

Briefly summarize the problem the speakers are discussing.Then state which of the two solutions from the conversation you would recommend.Explain the reasons for your recommendation.

范文：

The woman in the conversation planned to take a Russian course online this summer, but the problem is that this course was cancelled since not enough people sign up for the course. And she is required to take a language course in order to graduate next year. The man suggests her to take a Russian class on campus, but the woman wants to be with her family this summer and she hasn’t seen her sister for a year. Another option is that she could take another language course online, a Spanish course. But the woman is not that interested in Spanish. If I were her, I would choose the latter option. Although it seems to be a little boring to learn Spanish, she can fulfill the needs for graduation and have more time to be with her family. And maybe, she may find it is more interested than expected to learn Spanish.

Task 6

听力文本：

Narrator: Listen to part of a lecture in a biology class.

Professor: So of course many animals live in groups with others of their species. And there are benefits to living together in groups. It can help animals survive. But there are also certain disadvantages. So today we are going to talk about two disadvantages of living in groups for animals.

One disadvantage is that animals that live in groups may be more visible to predators. If there's a big group of animals, predators are more likely to spot them than they would an individual animal on its own. So sometimes animals in a group may be more vulnerable to being captured by predators. For instance, Sardines, really small fish, swim in groups, and other larger ocean animals, like some kind of whales, eat them. So while a whale probably wouldn’t notice one Sardine, it would see a group of Sardines very easily and thus be able to capture them for food.

Another disadvantage has to do with caring for the young. In a large group, there are a lot of young animals around and it can be difficult for animals to find or identify their own young. And they may end up taking care of other animals to young instead. So their own young may not get the care they need. For example, some bats live in caves. And with one type of bat, millions of them live together in the same cave. And with young bats so crowded together in the cave. It's sometimes hard for a mother bat to find her babies. So when a mother bat returns from finding food to feed her babies, she might end up feeding the babies of another mother bat, meaning her own babies don’t get fed.

问题：

Using points and examples from the lecture, explain two disadvantages of living in groups for animals.

范文：

The lecture is focusing on two disadvantages of living in a group for animals. One disadvantage is that animals living in groups are more visible and vulnerable to predators. Take sardines as an example. They swim in groups and they are prey for some large animals such as whales. Although a whale may hard to notice one little Sardine, it is able to see a group of them and capture them for food. Another disadvantage is that living in groups set great barriers for animals to identify their own young and thus have them in good care. For example, one type of bats live together in the same cave with millions of them. With too much bats in the same cave, a mother bat may find it’s hard to find her own baby and she may end up feeding the babies of another mother bat, leaving her own babies with no food.

托福独立+综合口语

Task1

Students study in a variety of ways. Explain how your study habits are different from those of other students you know.

话题：Approach 方法

思路：学习方法不同：(1)别人：书本;(2)自己：交流

高分词汇：distinct, embrace, concern, bear, idiom, superiority, authentic, outmoded, pejorative

范文：I am proud of my distinct way of learning English. Most of my classmates tend to embrace all kinds of textbooks concerning spoken English in hope of bearing in mind some idioms. But I am not willing to follow their example. The superiority of my approach lies in the direct communication with foreigners who will tell me which way of expression is more authentic and which becomes outmoded or pejorative.

Task 2

Some people like to shop in large grocery stores and department stores. Other people prefer to shop in small specialty stores. Which do you prefer? Explain why.

话题：Lifestyle 生活方式

思路：百货商店：(1)一次性买好;(2)其他娱乐活动

高分词汇：department, specialty, purchase, mall, ideal, entertainment, café

范文：I favor department stores more than those small specialty stores. One reason is that all what I want can be purchased from large shopping malls, so it is an ideal place for me to buy dresses, tops, shorts, bags and shoes at the same time. Another reason is that other entertainment facilities can also be offered by shopping centers. When bored and tired, my parents or friends can go to café or restaurant and treat ourselves with a movie afterwards.

Task 3

话题：Infrastructure Projects基础建设

高分词汇：construct, appreciate, capital, alumni, proposal, downtown, charge, bounteous, responsibility, project

思路：男生不同意这个建议的原因有两个，一个驱车半小时就能市中心艺术博物馆看到大师作品而且学生票很便宜周一还能免费;另一个校友已经出资帮助建设学生活动中心和新的图书馆。

范文： It is suggested by the student that the university should construct an art museum on campus for students to appreciate high-quality fine works, the capital of which alumni can be invited to make a contribution to. The man in the conversation does not agree with the proposal. First of all, it takes only half an hour to go by bus from campus to the downtown art museum where pictures from masters such as Rembrandt will be exhibited. For students, it is free on Mondays and charges as little as two bucks on other days. Secondly, although alumni are bounteous, they have already shoulder the responsibility of a new student center and a new library, the two costly projects.

Task 4

话题：Biology 生物学

高分词汇：approach, maximize, nutrition, minimize, forage, illustrate, dive, shallow, yield, crack

思路：阐述术语“最优觅食”的概念，展开某种乌鸦吃贝壳的例子：(1)选择最大的贝壳;(2)飞行到固定高度将贝壳摔破

范文： The reading passage introduces a term called “Optimal Foraging”, which means the energy-efficient approach to gaining food by maximizing food nutrition and minimizing foraging energies. The lecturer further illustrates this term by using the example of a species of crow. Firstly, this bird will dive down into shallow water and choose the biggest shellfish rather than grab the first shellfish it sees so that its efforts will yield greatest harvest. Second, the crow drops the shellfish from about five meters in the air to crack open the shell by the rock below. The height won’t be too little to break the shell at one time and won’t be too much to waste the flying energy.

Task 5

话题： Assignment Deadline Extension作业完成

高分词汇：reunion, require, qualify, organize, shortcoming, overcome, dash, ruin

思路：男孩遇到的问题是要重写生物课的实验报告。解决方法：(1)周末重写，好处是可以及时得到分数，坏处是错过周末的家庭聚会;(2)暑假重写，好处是可以慢慢写，坏处是家里不比图书馆可能没有足够的材料。

范文： The man is going to enjoy his summer vacation and have a family reunion this weekend. The problem is that he is required by the professor to rewrite the lab report for biology class before having a final grade.

To solve the problem, the man can rewrite the report either on weekends or during the summer holiday. I prefer the second solution. I believe a qualified report requires more than a weekend to prepare, organize and complete. The shortcoming of lack of material at home can be overcome by borrowing books ahead of time in library. On the other hand, dashing off the report will lose the opportunity of family reunion and ruin the chance of a better score.

Task 6

话题： Business 商业

高分词汇：negative, drawback, resource, bunch, renovation, irrelevant, apartment, concern, block, distract

思路：广告对坏境的坏处：(1)浪费自然资源;(2)影响自然美

范文： The lecture talks about two negative impacts of advertising on the environment. The first drawback refers to the waste of natural resources. For example, I received a whole bunch of booklets promoting various ways of kitchen renovation service. But this was irrelevant to me and a total waste of trees because the apartment I lived was rented and many people would throw the advertising mails into dustbin just as I did. The second shortcoming concerns the natural beauty of the environment. Huge billboards advertising restaurants and products along the side of the road will block the view of the landscape or distract people from the natural beauty.
