Describe a book that you think is the most useful and explain why it is the most useful. Include reasons and examples to support your response.(05. 11.19考题)Sample answer:The book that I think is the most useful is OG, Official Guide for new TOEFL. I'm a book loverand have lots and lots of collections. But OG is of the greatest use ‘cause I'm taking TOEFL Test, which is a must for a student who is gonna finish his or her overseas study in America. Not only does it give the brief introduction of the test, but it also provides test candidates with practical tips. On the other hand, some basics of English language are offered following the main parts, which is very helpful for those who don't have a good command of English. Most of all, it helps me get well prepared for TOEFL iBT and improve my performance on the four skills as well. This definitely leads to the academic success in my future study. That's why I think OG is the most useful book for me.5、Which do you like to read, magazines, novels or poems? And why? (06. 2.3; 06. 10.28;07. 1.6考题)Sample answer:I prefer magazines to fictions or poems, especially monthly magazines ‘cause they are like colorful flowers in a garden. They are excellent in some way and fill current trends and demands in different ways.My definition of a good magazine is one that doesn't just stick to the same writers and trends. The presentation, theme, and subjects should vary to grab the interest of readers. And a magazine should be a place where new writers can blossom. I would like to see more magazine stories and features on the new generation of writers and I hope to read more about new trends and new ideas.I read five or six magazines per month and I buy two magazines regularly---fashion and beauty magazines, ‘cause they are worth reading for their entertainment news and fashion and beauty tips. Sometimes the personality profiles(个人档案/简介)of successful business icons(这里指“人物”)are also fun to read.6. Describe the most efficient transportation in your country. (06. 4.8; 06. 12.15考题)The most effective means of transport, I'd say, is bicycle, an indispensable companion of most Chinese even though the private cars are on the rise. Each Chinese family possesses at least one bicycle and it is especially popular among college students. Compared with cars, bicycle still has some advantages. First, it is very convenient due to its small size. It does not need special parking space and can be parked almost everywhere. Second, driven by man power, it doesn't need fuel, so it has nothing to do with air pollution and energy crisis. Third, most people can afford a bicycle, but not a more advanced car. With so many advantages, bicycle will remain to be the most effective means of transport in China in the following years.7. Describe one of the most important inventions in the last 100 years. (06. 4.28考题)Sample answer:Some people might think computer is one of the most important inventions in the last century. But I'd say television. Since the invention of TV, human history has started a new page. First, TV allows people to learn about what's going on in the world. With such information, they are able to get a better understanding of the world they live in. What's more, TV provides a lot of interesting programs that many people enjoy after a long day's work. Its visual effect makes people feel less stressed and more relaxed. Most important of all, Television has a great influence on the way people think and talk.8. If you get a chance to choose a job, what will you do?(06. 7.29; 06. 11.18考题)Sample answer:If I could freely choose any job, I would choose a job where I could do something constructive and beneficial for ordinary people. Definitely it would be something helping people.Teaching of course is sort of that kind of job---- if you do it properly you can certainly help people. Traditionally in China teachers have been very respected; we have a saying a teacher for a day is a father for life.Nowadays, attitudes are changing, and perhaps people are more realistic. But my dream isn't changing. I wouldn't be helping them materially but I could give them a lot of pleasure and lighten their days.I love teaching and I want it to be my whole life's career ‘cause I feel I really am contributi ng something to people's lives, to help them.9.Describe the most important letter or essay you've ever written. (07. 3.23考题)Sample answer:The most important letter that I can remember was a letter applying for a job. I had seen this job advertised in a local newspaper, the evening edition. It suited me very much and I was immediately attracted to it. It said to apply in writing, giving details of your experience, your education and when you were available,and you had to give the names and contacts of two references. I was qualified for the job and eager to get it.When I was finished writing I was pretty satisfied and a little pleased, posted it off to the address given and waited! Thankfully, before I sweated too much, I got a letter after a couple of days, saying they wanted me to come in for interview. I was very pleased to go for the interview and got the job, my first job!三、【地方类】about places10. Where do you like to go when you are with friends? And why? (06. 1.14; 06. 2.11考题)Sample answer:As for the place, I’d like to go to Qianfo Mountain. The reasons why I enjoy going there are, firstly, going there can make us feel relaxed, especially after one day’s of work, we just go there to jog and listening to the natural sound such as the wind, all this can help us relax. Secondly, Qianfo mountain is famous for the Buddha there, it is said that it has more than 1000 Buddha there, and that is why it is called Qianfo mountain, people would like to visit historical places. Thirdly, every time I go there, I could do some sports there with my friends cause there is a sports center in the mountain, we just play basketball, volleyball, and something like that, which are quite essential to our health.When I'm with friends, I like to go to the restaurant. We would head for some exotic (异国情调的,外国的)restaurant where we would choose our favorite dishes. And also, it should be one of the restaurants where the waitresses do not talk too much or disturb you. I would like to find a secluded(隐蔽的,角落里的)table just for 3 or 4, perhaps with a panoramic view(全景)over a river or the lights of the city. We would have some very mellow(醇香的), warming red wine in sparkling glasses twinkling in the candlelight, the hues(色调)and aroma(香味)filling oursenses. We would eat slowly and carelessly for the joy of sharing and of being together. Our senses heightened, breathing deeply to the point of silent sighs, we would enjoy an endless evening there. That's the right place where I don't want to end our gathering.11、Describe a public area that you visit frequently. Please state why you visit it frequently and include specific examples and details in your explanation.(06. 1.21; 06. 11.17考题)Sample answer:I usually go to Beihai Park when I have the time and opportunity. I can go for a stroll in the park to relax. The park has some trees, and interesting and winding paths, where I can wander listlessly and contemplate my own thoughts or admire the various stages of nature. Sometimes I just like to feel the breeze on my face and savor(品尝)its coolness. It gives me a sense of freedom. It also has a lake on which I can go boating. I often go to the park with my friends on weekends. And we'll have a picnic if we stay there for the whole day.12. Describe a school you’ve ever attended. (06. 9.23考题)Sample answer:The school I'd like to talk about is Beijing New Oriental School where I took my TOEFL course. What I like about the school is that I can meet almost the best teachers in the country. They are so talented, eloquent(有口才的), knowledgeable and humorous that I don't feel any bored in class.A 2.5 -hour class passes very quickly. One more good thing about the school is that I can meet people from different parts of the country and make friends with them. We have a lot in common, sharing the same passion, the same stage, even the same learning difficulties which we encounter (遇到)and then discuss and finally work out together. Living on campus offers us much time to communicate and to share experiences.Actually there's a lot to say about my school, but the points above are what I mainly want to cover.13. Describe your favorite room either of your own house or in other places and explain why.(07.1.12考题)My favorite room is the living room. I like lots of open space and a sense of expansiveness, of freedom(宽敞和自由的感觉). Also, it's a place where I can look around and not feel agitated(不安的)or confined(受限制的). All different but natural colors have a such lovely warm effect that I would never get tired of it. Everything is in harmony----- large digital TV on the wall, glass-made tea table, beautiful plants, couch and sofa, a good book, a good wine. It gives me a sense of satisfaction and away from hurly burly(喧嚣). It is at times a place to contemplate and at times a place to share with friends.In a word, it is graceful, refined, comfortable and restful .……14. Describe a place you have never been to but like to go someday. (07. 1.19考题)Sample answer:A place that I have always wanted to go but have never been to is America. Perhaps it's a bit corny, but as far as I'm concerned, America is a country, which is vast and open, a sort of freedom. It's also a place where if you work hard you will be successful.The second reason for me to go there is that I would like to visit some natural places like GrandCanyon, and Niagara Falls and some cities like NY, LA, SF, and Miami, where there is one of the most beautiful beaches in the world.But most important of all, I would get my Master's in a different country if I had a chance. That country would be America, which has the most prestigious universities worldwide. Hence I can get the finest education. I guess that would be the biggest attraction for me, to discover myself in a different world and be successful.15.Describe a place for a trip. (07. 8.11考题)Sample answer:I would go to New Zealand for a trip if I had a chance. It's a lovely country, made up two islands. It is very lush(青葱的)and green because it rains a lot there. I would do a lot of different things and one thing I would definitely do is to swim with the dolphins. One of my friends ever did it, which she said was very interesting. At first, she was only brave enough to pat them and then she got braver and held on to one's fin while it took her for a swim. They moved very quickly and gracefully through the water and it was fascinating(棒极了). So the place for a trip would be New Zealand!四、事件类】about events16、Describe the most important decision that you've made in your life. Include reasons and examples to support your response.(05. 12.2; 07. 10.17考题)Sample answer:A particularly significant decision I've made in my life was that I came to work and live in Beijing.I had just finished my contract on a very decent job and I suppose I wanted freedom, or at least a long break. So I decided to come to Beijing even though I knew it is a challenging and demanding (要求苛刻的)city. But I still thought life was wonderful and the world was big.Besides, I was always a bit tempestuous(心潮澎湃的)and I liked to do things on the spur(鞭策)of the moment.Arriving in a new city was exhilarating. Just walking out of the station with a suitcase and two bags and with a dream of doing something for the Olympic Games, I felt I had arrived and I felt life was mine and I could make of it what I wanted.That summer, I realized again and saw clearer that life never ought to be boring, but on the contrary is full of adventure and challenge and is exciting, too.17、Describe a social or political celebration event in your culture. (05. 12.17考题)Sample answer:A type of social event celebrated in my culture is the flag-raising ceremony on National Day. Oceans of(表示“许多”)people from all across the country come to Beijing the day before. They are very excited to see the ceremony with their own eyes instead of on TV. Some even have been planting this dream in their mind for years. They arrive around 6:00 early in the morning, waiting for the special moment. I guess they are all overwhelmed(震撼的)and thrilled(激动)by the wonderful scene at the time. On the other hand, the view of the honor guard parade is fantastic, theguards all wearing the green military uniform and marching to Tianmen Square with a high spirit. Each birthday celebration of the great country always begin with such a solemn(庄严的)flag-raising ceremony, which strengthens the unity and motivation of its people.18.Describe an enjoyable event in your childhood. (06. 9.23; 06. 12.1考题)Sample answer:An enjoyable event that took place in my childhood was when I first got my first dog--- Gus. I was ten and had been pestering(纠缠)my parents for a dog for years. One day I came home from school, my parents said they had a surprise for me and it was waiting for me in my room. I ran up to my room and threw open the door. I found a tiny puppy with a red bow around his neck at the foot of my bed. He was fast asleep. And for the rest of his life, he slept on the exact same spot at the end of my bed every night. That was a great happy event in my childhood.五、【其他】others19. What do you do in your spare time? (05. 12.3; 07. 7.14考题)Sample answer:I'm kind of indoor type, so most often I read. I'm interested in reading all kinds of books and newspaper or magazine articles, especially those on current issues. I just want to keep myself informed of what's going on in the world.Now I spend most of my spare time reading on the Internet by browsing the screen. It's fast though it might do harm to my eyes. It's just fast and I can read fast.I also watch TV, es pecially the NBA game ‘cause I'm a big basketball fan, even though I'm not very good at playing basketball myself. I love to watch and I will get excited and overjoyed whenever I see Y aoming do a nice shot.20. If you unexpectedly received a large amount of money, what would you do with it? Would you spend it for practical purposes or simply for Sample answer:If I got a lot of money, the first thing I would like to do is to go for overseas study. I have always wanted to finish my university in a different country. When I was in junior high, one of my classmates got a chance to go to the USA. At that time there were not many families who could afford their child to do that. To me, it was also a dream, and the dream has been planting in my mind until today. Therefore, I would definitely do this first if I had enough money. Then, I would give the rest of my money to my parents so that they could live a better and easier life. These two things above are what I really would like to do if I had a lot of money.六、【教育类】about education……21. Do you think the high school should teach music and art as other basic science? Include details and examples to support your opinion.(05. 12.2考题)Sample answer:Music and art should be important components(成分,科目)of the school curriculum(课程)because they have many uses besides recreation.To study music is to study the basics. Through its study, students come into contact with(接触)other basic areas of the curriculum: math, science, social studies, languages, and physical education.Apart from that, music, like reading, writing and speaking, conveys(传达)thoughts, ideas and feelings. It also provides an avenue for(提供方法/途径)developing self-expression and creativity.On the other hand, art education in itself has tremendous value(具有巨大价值). Learning about the history, sharing ideas and knowledge, is always a good thing. Music and art, therefore, as important parts of our lives, should be taught in high school.22. Do you think sports courses should be a required part of every school day? (06. 9.23考题)Sample answer:From my point of view, sports courses form an essential part of children's education for many reasons.First of all, doing sports helps maintain the physical fitness of students. Movement coming from physical exertion during exercise promotes circulation of blood to all parts of the body. Thus, it results in vigor and stamina which help to prevent diseases and sickness.Moreover, exercise develops sportsmanship among students. When they play as a team, they are able to identify their role and worth to reach the same goal. It also helps enrich/promote/improve their friendship and personality.Therefore, I think sports courses should be mandatory in school.23. Some students like classes where teachers lecture in class. Other students prefer classes where the students do some of the talking. Which type of class do you prefer? (07. 3.23考题)(中立) Sample answer:Both teaching and learning approaches are valuable and have relative merits.dominated by teacher's lectures are full of enthusiasm which stimulates interest. Then the interested people tend to learn more. Also, lectures provide a faster, simpler method of presenting information to the students. They are particularly useful for students who read poorly or who are unable to organize the material. While on the other hand, tutorial allows students to participate in discussions which put them in an active role rather than a passive one. However, neither of them is universal. Therefore, I can hardly say that I prefer either approach; I think the choice should depend on circumstances including the subject to learn, the depth to explore and the quality that the lecturer or the discussing group have.24. Do you agree or disagree that college students should do an internship before graduation? (07.5.18考题)Sample answer:I think it’s a good idea for college students to do an internship before graduation.First, an internship provides practical work experience. It offers students a great opportunity to connect the classroom learning to the world outside.(理论与实践相结合)Also, this can help students either confirm a career choice or make a decision to choose a different path. And that would be an informed decision about whether they are interested in a particular career.Furthermore, students who have completed internships would find employment more quickly following graduation. and they are more likely to be employed within their fields of study, and are more satisfied in their jobs.Therefore, I agree that college students should do an internship before graduation.25. Do you agree or disagree that students will learn more when they have discussions? (07. 6.24考题)I agree that students should participate in discussions in class. Through two-way discussion, the teacher is able to know what are the difficult parts for the students and then easily help them solve the problems. Likewise, the students can have more opportunity to communicate with the teacher and report their difficulties in time. Thus, Both teaching and learning can be effective. Meanwhile, the students can get a better understanding of teamwork and thus enhance their friendship. Most of all, the interactive class can achieve a better and more harmonious study atmosphere. This, in turn, would promote the efficiency. That's why I think discussion in class is a good idea for students.26. Some people believe that students who want to go to university after graduation from high school should have about one year's time to get a job to obtain work experience or have a travel to enlarge their vision. Do you agree or disagree? What’s your op inion?(07. 8.11考题)Sample answer:As far as I'm concerned, I think a gap year is a good idea for college students. Going away instead of directly going to university would provide them with a different and great experience. Taking a break from study is not only beneficial for their body, but also for their mind. They would have the opportunity to see different things and know more about life. It's like self–refreshment. After the break, they would be eager to return to college with a fresher outlook and clearer mind. Sometimes they may think more, connect their real world experience to their schoolwork and thus improve their efficiency.Somehow, students who take one year off either to work or to see the world, always wind up going back to school with more incentives(动力)to get more out of their education.So I think of taking one year off as a way of rejuvenating(使恢复,使更新)oneself.27. Some people choose a major that may gurantee them a good job. Other people choose a major out of their personal interest in that area. Which do you think is a good idea and why? (06. 8.26;07. 3.3考题)Sample answer:These two aspects of choosing a major both have their merits, but I still think c hoosing a major out of personal interest is a better idea.First, interest is the best teacher. Only when people show great interst in that area, they can do well in their academic career.Second, interest can give them enthusiasm which is very important for a student who's pursuing a better future.Third, interest can last long. Those showing interest won't get tired of working in that area even after many years. And when they encounter difficulties, they can still keep on going without any disappointment.In closing, I agree with the idea of interest being the most important consideration in/when choosing a major.七、【科技类】about technology28. Do you agree or disagree that cell phone usage should be banned in some places? Include details and examples to support your opinion. (05. 12.3考题)……Sample answer:I strongly agree with the opinion that cell-phone usage should be banned in some places like concert halls, movie theaters or in some situations like when you are driving in cars or taking a subway, when you are in flight, in classes or meetings. For one thing, it has become social etiquette(礼节). The cell phone user should know when and where to pick up the cell phone and talk. Though people have personal right to use their phone, the others are not supposed to be involved in(被卷入)the unnecessary disturbance(不必要的打扰). For another, cellphone usage can harm a person's health. Brain cancer rates in the US have risen since cellphones were introduced, leading some people to wonder if cellphone usage is the reason for the increase. In recognition of those above, there should be some kind of regulations helping with this problem. This way people will be well aware.八、媒体类】about media29. Where do you learn more from, media like newspapers, TV , Internet or people like friends, family and teachers? (05. 12.16; 06. 6.10考题)Sample answer:I think I learn more from people rather than media. I’ll take my mother as an example. When life seems hopeless, she is always there to help me every step of the way and she maintains everything will be fine unless I myself give up. I’m encouraged not only by her inspiring(令人鼓舞的)words but also by her action. By taking action, she has never been overwhelmed by pressure, adversity(困境)and even danger. Also when I feel blue(情绪低落)sometimes, I would turn to my classmates or friends for cheering up and comfort. While, media like TV or Internet can only equip me with(以…武装)knowledgeand information, they are incapable of giving me spiritual satisfaction(精神上的满足). So I learn about life, how to stay strong more from people around me than from the media.九、【文化类】about culture30. Should government give financial support to build museums and theaters? State your opinion and explain why. (05. 12.17; 07. 9.29考题)……Sample answer:In my point of view, government should provide fund to build museums and theaters because they serve as exhibition centers for people to know about the history and culture of the country.The range of museums is fantastic—there are museums of ancient history and archaeology(考古学), of natural history and even museums for such things as transport and crime! And because the museums are constantly holding new exhibitions, there is always something different to see. Theaters offer people a big place to enjoy a variety of operas and plays of different regions. Even the world's best group come occasionally. Meanwhile, the building of the museums and theaters will enhance the cultural exchange between countries.They are also one of the contributing factors that promote the national economy.That's why I think it's a good idea for government to help with the building of museums and theaters.……31. Some cities insist on keeping ancient buildings. Other cities want to destroy them. Which do you prefer and why? (07. 1.14考题)Sample answer:,I think old buildings should be protected and maintained for the following reasons. First, old buildings carry a place's history, tradition, local custom and even some unique character. They were designed to be preserved as they were in early times. They serve as a mirror to remind modern people of their past that they should be proud of. Second, most old buildings are tourist attractions which interest visitors from all over the world. If they are damaged, they might go back with regret. In addition, tourism is always a big support to economy. Therefore, we should try to bring the funding into the budget to do whatever is necessary.32. Which do you prefer, e-reading or traditional reading? (07. 6.30考题)Sample answer:people prefer e-readin g ‘cause it's fast and convenient. But in my opinion traditional reading is better for three reasons.First, paper reading doesn't have as much bad effect on our eyes as computer reading. Second, the printed word gives more comfort, enjoyment or personal touch than electronic text. I like the feeling of turning the page and taking notes on the book. Though computers are changing the reading habits, the long tradition of printed word may yet not be. Most people still read printed books, magazines and newspapers to get their information.Therefore, I prefer traditional reading to e-reading.【生活类】about life33. Some people prefer to eat out. Others prefer home cooked meals with their family. Which of these types of meal do you prefer? Use specific examples and details for your preference. (06.1.14考题)……Sample answer:。
托福独立口语书籍类话题口语素材人物类话题是托福独立口语比较常考的话题之一,为了让各位TOEFLer更游刃有余地备考此类话题,下面就和大家分享托福独立口语书籍类话题口语素材与思路梳理,希望能够帮助到大家,来欣赏一下吧。
托福独立口语书籍类话题口语素材与思路梳理我们来看一个经典Task 1,来自官方真题Official1:Talk about a book you read that was important to you for some reason. Explain why the book was important to you. Give specific details and examples to support your answer.这个题就是需要考生描述一本重要的书籍,还要给出重要的理由。
在这里,我们要知道,考官并不真的在乎我们要说的书是什么!题目需要我们展示的是书为什么重要、如何重要,并不一定要讲述书的内容。
只要我们在答题时留言流畅,和话题相关就可以得到不错的分数。
所以大家的思路转换大法是:1.谈感受例如:故事很有趣,我们可以这么说:The story in the book was so interesting and appealing that once I began to read it, I couldn’t stop. /The book was so fun to read that I couldn’t help laughing every time I read it. It brought me a lot of happiness.再或者:故事很有意义,我们可以这么说:The story in the book was not only exciting but also inspiring. It taught me so much about the world we were living and showed me different ways people thought. /The story was meaningful and inspiring. It taught me to keep going and never give up, which is the most important lesson in life.2.谈功能例如:书本可能会对你的学业有帮助,我们可以说:The book is beneficial to my academic learning. It provides much extra information on my major courses in addition to school textbooks.又或者:此书还可能帮你交到朋友:To be honest, I met my girlfriend thanks to this book. We were sitting in the reading room next to each other and reading the same book! What a coincidence! Then we began to talk about how much we liked the writer and his books. Next thing you knew, she gave me her number!托福口语模板:动物是否应该享有和人一样的权力Personally speaking, I think animals should be entitled to have the same right to pursue happiness and health as humans. The main reason is that this will enable our human beings to have a harmonious society. Animals, especially pets, no matterit is a dog or a cat, should also have the right to have healthy food to eat, clean water to drink, warm houses to live in and good environment to enjoy and so on. In this way, the animals will feel happy and our human beings will feel relieved. However, if animals don’t ha ve such right, when animals are extremely hungry or thirsty, they may even bite or hurt people. Oh, nightmare!托福口语模板:历史遗迹应该对谁开放托福口语题目:Some people think historical sites ought to be open to the general public, while some people think historical sites should only be open to experts and researchers. Which opinion do you agree and why? Give specific explanation in your response.一些人认为历史遗迹应该对公众开放,另一些人认为这些遗迹应该只对专家和研究人员开放。
托福独立口语题库答题要点解析精选版5篇托福独立口语题库答题要点解析:考试Exams考试1. ■72 Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Grades (marks) encourage students to learn. Use specific reasons and examples to support your opinion.参考分析:不同意比较好写一些。
承认grades的一些意义的情况下,指出grades的众多副作用。
观点:Grades not always encourage students to learn.• Grade对学生的好处:便于教学体系的整体管理。
有利于学生循序渐进(follow the principle of gradual improvement)地学习。
可以使学生了解自我的学习效果。
•Grade带来的副作用:无情的竞争使学生们为了高分而不择手段(resort to every expedient),比如作弊(cheat)。
高分带来骄傲(arrogant; be too big for one's shoes/boots),而低分使学生灰心失望(lose hope)甚至放弃(abandon learning motivation)。
参见:范文72、同意分数鼓励学生学习(1)学生可以知道自己掌握了多少知识,所以能够更加有针对性的学习(2)分数可以让学生之间互相比较,激励学生学习(3)分数可以让学生有成就感,更加乐观,积极,所以能够学的更好2. Some students prefer to take multiple-choice exams. Others prefer to take essay exams. Which do you prefer and why? Use specific reasons and examples to support your response.3. Sometimes students have to write papers. Sometimes theyhave to give oral presentations. Which activity do you think is better for students, and why? Include details and examples in your explanation. Students have to write papers and give oral presentations. I think oral presentations are better because they are easier and take less time to prepare. Another reason is oral presentations are interesting for other students who are listening. Finally, many jobs require oral presentations. Therefore, students can learn an important skill and develop confidence in speaking to a group.I think writing paper is better for students. Firstly we need to develop strong writing skills. We go to school mainly to learn reading and writing, so we need a lot of practice. Exam requires a lot of writing, so writing papers is good preparation. Also, I think writing is a better way to show that I understand. When I write a paper, I can think deeply because I have more time to explain my ideas.托福独立口语题库答题要点解析:家庭Family 家庭1. ■2 Do you agree or disagree with the following statement?

Today he is having breakfast with his wife, Sharon, andthey're talking about the upcoming election.Amir: So honey, who do you think you're going to vote for in the election? I really like both the Republican and Democratic candidates, but I can't decide who to vote for. Sharon: You like both of them? I think they're both terrible. For me the question isn't who I like the most, but who I dislike the least!Amir: Well, I guess that's an interesting way to look at it. To be honest I don't care if Virginia is a blue state or a red state. I just want a moderate candidate who will do a good job.Sharon: Yeah, you're right.

托福独立口语任务人物类话题解析 朗阁海外考试研究中心 三、名人 在托福独立口语任务人物类话题当中,名人也是常考的话题之一。以下话题在任务类话题当中经常出现:
Describe the famous person you admire most. Explain why you admire this person. Include details and examples to support your response. Describe your favorite performer or musician. Explain why you like this performer or musician most. Include reasons and examples to support your response. Describe your favorite singer and explain why you like him/her. Describe a famous businessperson you admire and explain why you admire him/her. Describe a sport person you admire and explain why you admire him/her. Describe a celebrity/a famous person in history you want to see most and explain why you want to see this celebrity. Describe a character in a film and explain why you like him/her.
通过以上题目,我们可以大致把名人分为这几类:歌手、演员、运动员、商人、历史人物、文学人物等。不同的名人具备不同的品质,同学们在准备的过程当中,要准备不同的词汇和事例。当然,如果题目没有加以区分,只是简单地让描述一个名人的话,那就根据自己准备的名人类型,自己选择一个就可以了。
下面我们看“Describe your favorite singer and explain why you like him/her.”这个题目怎么回答。 提到歌手,很多同学想找一个国外的、国际化的明星来描述,但是对国外明星有细致了解的同学不是很多,所以容易在回答的时候只提到一些表面浅显的内容,没有足够的细节和例子补充。所以,如果题目没有要求描述那个国家的明星的话,尽可以说自己比较熟悉的国内歌手。所以这个题目,我们尽可以描述中国的天后王菲:
In terms of the singers I like, I think Wangfei is among one of my favorite ones. I like her for several reasons. First of all, she is very talented. She has the most beautiful voice I’ve ever heard. When hearing her voice, I feel extremely calm and relaxed. Moreover, she is a brave girl when pursuing her dream. When she first started singing, she was not very popular. So she went to the US and learned a special way of singing and soon earned her fame in Asia. More importantly, her songs are always very inspiring and encouraging. Whenever I have difficulties, I can always find comfort and courage in her songs.
说到歌手,一定要提一下歌手的声音或者作品的特色。其他方面,可以说歌手的成长历程、趣事,或者歌手身上发光的品质和值得别人学习的地方。同样,说到演员、运动员,都可以用同样的模式,先说这个名人的职业特点,再添加一些非职业的特色和故事。
而考到历史人物,我们的思考方式就需要转变一下,描述这个人的身份,然后分条阐释他的功绩或成就,以及对自己的影响。例如“Describe a celebrity/a famous person in history you want to see most.”我们可以这样回答:
I want to see Confucius the most. He is the most famous thinker and educator in Ancient China. I admire him first because he advocated benevolence. According to Confucius, benevolence means courtesy, loyalty and unselfishness. He always told his students the importance to love other people, to treat other people like brothers and sisters. Secondly, he believed that people with lofty ideal will never give up righteousness to seek survive, but may sacrifice their lives for righteousness. Finally, Confucius believed in the dignity of people. He is against the ancient custom of burying ceramic tomb figures with dead, because he thinks it was disrespect to humans. In China, Confucius is still influencing how we think today.
四、领袖 在雅思口语题目当中,也会出现有关于leader的题目,有的会问一个好的leader应该具备的品质,相反,有的作文会问一个普通的team member应该具有的品质。当然,在Task 2中,还会让你选择你愿意当leader还是supporting member。以下是一些例子:
In your opinion, what are some important characteristics of a good leader? Use reasons and specific examples to explain why these qualities are important. Some people prefer to be a leader in a group project while others prefer to be a supporting member in a group project. Which do you prefer and why? Use examples and details in your explanation. In your opinion, what are some important qualities of a good team member? Use reasons and specific examples to explain why this characteristic is important.
回答这类题目,只需要弄清楚“领导”和“非领导”各自的优缺点就好了。首先我们需要brainstorm一下领导应该具备的品质:
ambitious 有雄心壮志的 dutiful 尽职的 analytical 善于分析的 competent 能胜任的 conscientious 认真的,自觉的 creative 富有创造力的 dedicated/devoted 有献身精神的 dependable 可靠的 diplomatic 老练的,有策略的 generous 宽宏大量的 impartial 公正的 knowledgeable 有见识的
而一个完整的答案,只需找出有代表性的两三点,用细节和例子加以支撑就可以了: “In your opinion, what are some important characteristics of a good leader?” To me, a leader should bear the following good qualities. Firstly, a leader should have respect for his subordinates. The fundamental of any relationship is mutual respect. A leader without respect for the others cannot win others’ respect. Secondly, a leader should have good management skills. He should know quite well how to communicate with the subordinates and make them more productive. Finally, a leader should have adequate professional knowledge. A leader decides where the company should go, so he should know quite well about the business he is undertaking.
而跟leader对应的另外一种问题,“In your opinion, what are some important qualities of a good team member?”,我们首先也需要brainstorm一下作为team member需要具备什么样的品质,才能让一个团队有效地运转呢?
