今天跟大家來談一談托福口語task 1的思路問題。很多同學(xué)準(zhǔn)備托??谡Z考試的時(shí)候容易忽視這個(gè)題型,覺得答題好壞全靠考場(chǎng)上的感覺和狀態(tài)??烧嬲搅丝紙?chǎng)上,卻經(jīng)常苦于沒有思路,無法開口,有時(shí)候甚至用中文都不知怎樣回答。

先來看一個(gè)task 1的考題:
Describe the famous person you admire most. Explain why you admire this person. Include details and examples to support your response.

這是一個(gè)people類的考題,我們拿到一個(gè)題目后,腦海中應(yīng)該立刻浮現(xiàn)出最基本的答題框架:
topic sentence + supporting ideas.

Topic sentence是比較容易想的,甚至是可以虛構(gòu)的,所以問題就落在supporting ideas的思路上。描述一個(gè)人,最容易的角度便是這個(gè)人內(nèi)在的qualities. 如:humorous, open-minded, easy-going, warm-hearted, community-minded, high driven, visionary, knowledgeable…

有了這些點(diǎn)之后,我們要想辦法把點(diǎn)變成線,也就是把一個(gè)觀點(diǎn)擴(kuò)充成一到兩個(gè)句子。我們可以用描述的方法去講這個(gè)觀點(diǎn)同意轉(zhuǎn)換,如‘he’s a very open-minded person and he’s always flexible to changes.

同時(shí)我們還可以用舉例的方法來進(jìn)行擴(kuò)展,如 ‘He’s a high-driven guy and he worked so hard on his Toefl test, study almost 24/7.’

再來看一類task 1 的考題:
Choose an object you like and explain why it is of special value to you. Please include specific examples and details in your explanation.

這道題屬于物品題,物品的題目也是一個(gè)常考點(diǎn),但是準(zhǔn)備的面比較廣,可能會(huì)出成:a type of pet,a kind of game,your important gift,咱們可以從兩個(gè)角度去答題:
對(duì)物品本身的簡(jiǎn)單描述 + 物品的來源或是重要意義。

如描述寵物可以說: ‘ coz he keeps me company, when I was sad, he was always by my side.’ 又如描述禮物可以說: ‘ The psp was a gift from my Grandpa, it was a credit to my hard work on the SAT test."

再來看一類task1 的考題:
If you could live abroad, where would you go? Explain why you would go there.

地方題目也是??碱}型,變換方式相對(duì)較少,比如有:the city you live,a city you have always wanted to go,your favorite place when you were a child等等。地點(diǎn)題的答題思路為:景色,飲食,高雅休閑場(chǎng)所,教育,就業(yè)機(jī)會(huì)。

如果說美國,景色可以描述national park, the beauty of nature well preserved, 飲食可以說dessert, I’ve got a sweet tooth, 如說高雅休閑場(chǎng)所,可以說Broadway, or NBA games,教育可以談美國的大學(xué),就業(yè)機(jī)會(huì)可以談美國的500 fortunes.

再比如如果講蘇州,景色可以說gardens,well preserved ancient building, 就業(yè)機(jī)會(huì)可以講講蘇州工業(yè)園,SIP,provides a lot of job and internship opportunities for graduates…

第四類??嫉念}目是event類,來看一個(gè)例題:
What is the most memorable event you experienced in your life? Explain why it is memorable.

類似的事件題的關(guān)鍵形容詞可以換為:embarrassing, challenging,disappointing,hard等等。

較難的題可以出成:
Describe a time when you needed help from others, how he or she helped you and what was the result? Please include details and examples to support your answer.

這類題目跟個(gè)人親身經(jīng)歷有關(guān),考場(chǎng)上容易一時(shí)沒有思路,也很難去杜撰,所以應(yīng)在考前多去回憶童年往事,同時(shí)嘗試著用英文表達(dá)出來,假如實(shí)在無法勾起美好的回憶,那就去杜撰吧, 注意是考前練習(xí)時(shí)杜撰,千萬別到了考場(chǎng)上再去杜撰。

以上四類是托福口語task 1考察頻率最高的四大類,當(dāng)然還有其他類別的一些考題,如工作職業(yè)類(這類主要是關(guān)于人生的目標(biāo),職業(yè)的選擇,工作的興趣等等),學(xué)校教育類,new skill you would like to learn,文化娛樂類,這類題目涉及到文化、藝術(shù)、娛樂等生活中常見的題材。比如:a book that you want to read again,an important composition, example: essay, poem, letter,a TV program that you really like to watch,a type of music you like most等等,需要考生在考前花大量的時(shí)間去整理思路,只有做到有備無患,在能在考場(chǎng)上胸有成竹,口若懸河。
