舉例分析托福Integrated speaking之Task4
今天我們主要通過分析兩位考生的實(shí)例作文,來教你如何征服Integrated speaking之Task4。
一、題型分析?
它的題目流程和Task3是一樣的,也是Read/Listen/Speak三者結(jié)合,都屬于integrated speaking題型。不過是關(guān)于an academic topic,總的來說,Task4比Task3的難度更加提升了一些,這就要考察你ability of combining the main information of the reading with that of what you heard.
二、注意事項(xiàng)?
廣大托友們一定要注意在做Task4時(shí),它并不要求你發(fā)表自己的觀點(diǎn),不要在你的陳述中加入“I think------”或者是“In my opinion”,這是多此一舉!而且它也不要求你必須具備聽力或者閱讀材料中所涉及的相關(guān)學(xué)術(shù)領(lǐng)域的專業(yè)知識(shí),你只需要合理地結(jié)合兩部分給出的信息,然后依據(jù)這些信息進(jìn)行充分有效地回答!
三、試題分析?
Reading
Social Interaction?
People deal with each other every day. This interaction is at the heart of social life. The study of social interaction is concerned with the influence people have over one another's behavior. People take each other into account in their daily behavior and in fact, the very presence of others can affect behavior. For example, one principle of social interaction, audience effects, suggests that individuals' work is affected by their knowledge that they are visible to others, that the presence of others tends to alter the way people behave or perform an activity.
Explain how the examples of tying shoes and learning to type demonstrate the principle of audience effects.
聽力部分略
Sample answer1?
Here we talk about the way we interact each other. What we know and what we want and the others’ presence, behaviors will tend to our actions. This is an example of typing shoes and learning to type which demonstrates the principle of audience effects. Indeed we know we should affect common behaviors. If we type shoes faster, we could make more mistakes.
解析:?
Sample1把重點(diǎn)都放在了一些比較理論的敘述上,而缺乏了對(duì)tying shoes這個(gè)事例的介紹和分析。首先,大家要注意調(diào)整好你所陳述topic的主觀即理論部分和事例部分各自所占的合理分配比例。為什么這樣說呢?因?yàn)樵谖宜佑|的客戶中,在做Task4時(shí)往往是走兩個(gè)極端的路線,要么都是純理論的闡述要么就是偏重于listening中的事例說明,都沒有完美地把兩部分結(jié)合。
Sample answer2?
There are two groups of students must have type their shoes. The first group which is told they will be observed type faster than the second group which is not told that they are observed. This is the first principle of the audience effect. Secondly, people who are told they are observed, when they are typing, they make more mistakes than the second group who are not told they are observed. This is the second principle of the audience effect.
解析:?
(1)縱觀Sample2的陳述,他表達(dá)地較有條理,但是和Sample1相比較,它正好缺乏對(duì)the principle of audience effects的理論部分陳述,如果把Sample1 和Sample2的表達(dá)結(jié)合一下就完美了。
(2)語言表達(dá)多樣性有待提高。在Sample2中多次聽到they are observed這種表達(dá),這樣就顯得客戶詞匯量有限,其實(shí)可以把observe和watch互換地應(yīng)用!托友們應(yīng)該注意了!
(3)指示詞和過渡詞的有效運(yùn)用。本段中使用了secondly,這很好!但是回頭看前面的陳述并沒有發(fā)現(xiàn)firstly,所以這樣整體聽起來就顯得有點(diǎn)突兀、不連貫。指示詞和過渡詞的恰當(dāng)使用無論在口語中還是寫作中都起著舉足輕重的作用。它會(huì)使你的口語表達(dá)重點(diǎn)突出,層次分明,更加流暢,過渡也更加自然。下面就列舉一些常用的指示詞和過渡詞,希望大家多多應(yīng)用在自己的口語表達(dá)和寫作中。
指示詞:First Second Third Fourth
Finally Then Next After that
Most importantly Another Furthermore Moreover
Before The first The second The final point
過渡詞:but however and despite
Consequently expect for although even though
In addition to rather than instead of alternatively
On the other hand in conclusion in short to sum up
For example in particular namely for instance
Eventually meanwhile at the same time while
Just as what’s more as well as but also
Whereas nonetheless in contrast provided that
Because since as a result therefore
(4)個(gè)別的句子表達(dá)有誤
