In the listening material, the professor illustrates further the topic “false consensus”using two examples, which means, people tend to believe their thoughts can represent the majorities’ opinions, but actually they don’t.
One example is in a crowd and quiet library, a group of students are chosen randomly and asked a question“will you start discuss loudly in such a quiet library”, some say yes and others say no.
Another example is, based on their answers, the students are divided into two opposite groups and are asked a second question “will others talk loudly if facing the same situation”. Surprising, the group who said yes consistently believe that others will also talk loudly, while the group who said no uniformly think that others will stand by their side.
This is the so called false consensus.

In the listening material, the professor gives two examples to explain the term nonverbal language, including 2 two major forms, facial expression and body movements.
One example is her uncle paid a visit last week after 20 years, she was so happy that she acted like an 8-year-old boy, so her uncle enjoyed his stay
because of her delighted look, her uncle believe that he was very welcome. This example proves that one’s nonverbal language will enhance the emotional outlet when whey consist with each other. Another example is that last week she helped her daughter build a bird house, which was actually very difficult, thus they spent a whole afternoon on it. When it was finished she told her daughter she was happy but actually she looked frustrated and bored, so her daughter didn’t believe her. This proves that one’s nonverbal language may betray him by telling others his true emotions.

In the listening material, the professor gives 2 examples to explain further the term bridge shifting.
One example is, once she watched a movie about a famous figure in American politics. There was one scene in the movie that the calendar was turned over one page after another, and suddenly the politician grew up from a child to a young man. So the scene is actually an application of bridge shifting the director used in order to depict the years in which the politician grew up.
Another example is in the same movie, the politician needs to travel to different cities to give speeches. In order to show the spectators that he is busy travelling, all directors will merely show a picture of a running
tree or different window views, so that viewers will not have any problems in comprehending the story. This is another application of bridge shifting that is to connect different places other than skipping certain time slots.

In the listening material, the professor gives one example to explain the term quoting out of context mentioned in the reading part. He is stressing that sometimes, in order to attract people’s interest, some advertisers may only quote part of the reviews from the critics.(like when you are in a movie store, you’ll read reviews like two thumbs up or the best comedy of the season.) His example is, once, before a movie was formally released, people had read news about it saying that it was delighted, thus lots of people went for the movie because of the remarks. However, the fact is the critic thought rather negatively about the movie, she only meant that the actress was delighted not the movie. This is the effect of quoting out of the context.

What charactereristics do you think a good teacher should have?（06. 3.3; 07. 11.3考题）
Sample answer： In my view, a good teacher should have different characteristics. First, a good teacher should be faithful and dedicated to the job. If a teacher is faithful to the job, then s/he never cheats and will be impartial（偏向）and students will respect such a teacher. If a teacher is dedicated towards his/her work, then s/he will teach with his/her heart. Another most important characteristic of a good teacher is patience. Teachers should never lose their patience in class when students ask questions repeatedly. A teacher should explain each and every aspect of the topic in the easiest way. Most of all, a good teacher should update his/her knowledge ‘cause further learning can make a good teacher re-discover the beauty of the teaching profession. 2. What are important characteristics you look for in friends?（06. 5.12; 06. 6.24; 07.1.27考题） Sample answer： I think what makes a good friend is someone who is honest, supportive, and has a good sense of humor. I just look for someone who's honest to me no matter what. He should not tell stories behind my back; he should tell me my short-comings at my mouth, but never praises me in front of me. It is a well known saying that "A FRIEND IN NEED IS A FRIEND INDEED." Therefore, a friend should stand by you in the hour of any sort of need. I just think that a good friend won't leave me if I'm in trouble. They can be my friends in sunshine and in shade, care for me even when the times are bad and even more when the times are great. Also, I'd love to spend more time with someone who can make me laugh and is fun to be around. 3. Describe a person that influenced you most.（06. 5.26; 06. 3. 17；06.10.22考题；与06.5.26类似） Sample answer： The person that really influenced me most was Ms. Xing---my college teacher who taught us English literature. Her class was quite different from the other teachers. In her class we were not expected to sit there and listen. We had to get more involved in the class activities, like discussions, comments or debates sometimes. Our creativity and imagination were developed enormously through the active participation. On the other hand, she let us think more about life by sharing her experiences and more importantly, she taught me how to live on my own. So that's why I was greatly influenced. Not only did she give me knowledge, but also she gave me courage and confidence as well.
091031NA Speaking Question 1 Describe a person who always makes you laugh. Explain why the person is funny. Include details and examples in your explanation. sample answer: 091031NA Speaking Question 2 Some people prefer to live in a place most of their life. Other people prefer to move to different places. Which do you prefer and why? Use specific reasons and examples to support your response. sample answer: I prefer to move around a lot instead of settling in one place because first of all I believe most people’s growth comes with the changes in their lives. For example, after finishing my junior high school in China, I decided to go to Canada. This gives me an opportunity to be instructed in an entirely different manner. I’ve become a more independent thinker and learned how to look at things from different perspectives. If I were still studying in China, I quite doubt I would learn all this. Secondly, I think that by moving around, people are able to experience diverse circumstances which give them new experiences and broaden their views, and thus they can get more comprehensive understanding of the world, the society and life itself. 090403NA Speaking Question 1 童年学到了什么东西？ What did you learn in your childhood?
托福口语全部题型答题套路汇总讲 解 托福口语虽然话题广泛内容变化众多，但在答题过程中其实是存在一些可供考生使用的套路的。今天给大家带来了托福口语TASK1-6全部题型答题套路汇总讲解，希望能够帮助到大家，下面就和大家分享，来欣赏一下吧。 托福口语全部题型答题套路汇总讲解 托福口语一二题无明显套路 首先，是答题思路，一般口语一二题就是缩小版的independent writing(可以在高分作文里找思路)，而三四五六题是通过听力提取信息。一二题大家可以用机经来练习，一是可以熟悉题目，二是可以练习把握时间。三四五六题，则有模板可寻：托福口语第三题套路介绍 先阅读一封信或是一个通告，一般是一个建议，对校园内的一项进行一个改变，这个“change”是阅读*中至关重要的，因为后面的对话主要是围绕这个进行的，至于*中给出的理由，并不是很重要，因为没有时间也没有必要说这个。之后听一男一女对话，主要是找主要说话人的态度，然后记下他或她的两个理由和
举例，不用全记，每点理由记一到两个原因或事例就好。之后组织语言：是change+态度+两点理由。 托福口语第四题套路介绍 先阅读一个科研类*，然后听一段lecture，之后对一个概念进行定义和举例解释。在这道题，阅读的部分需要抓住的要点比上一题要多，首先是题目，题目一般是所要解释的概念，所以要把题目记下来，然后在阅读段落里找对这个概念的定义，一般是含这个词的一句话，记下，之后听lecture时主要记下教授解释这个概念所用的例子，一般可能是一个故事或实验，这时就要记下主要轮廓和具体的对比或例子，之后组织语言，按：*讨论某事某物+定义+教授举例解释的方式回答。 托福口语第五题套路介绍 这道题不用阅读，直接是一男一女对话，主要是其中一个人遇到一个problem，要着重记下，然后是另一个提出两个解决方案，并且各给利弊。之后题目会让你在两个方案中选择一个。很多老师的建议都是选择第二个方案，因为据说这样更好回答，符合大家惯用的让步反驳式思路。答题时，思路为：叙述这个问题+两个解决方案+你分析后的选择。由于回答较长，需要注意用连词。 托福口语第六题套路介绍

He believed that problems and conflicts could not be solved by violence. Last but not the least, he is my favorite famous person because his moral philosophy has a great influence in Asia up to now.

第一辑黄金口语/口语真经 001 It’s necessary to prohibit people from using phone calls in some places. I strongly agree with the opinion that the use if a mobile phone should be forbidden in some places, such as library and airplanes. The most common reason for people going to a library is to find a silent environment to read their favorite books without interruption. But if you receive a phone call in the library or just send out messages, the mobile phone will ring. People have personal right to use their mobile phone. The others are not supposed to be involved in the unnecessary disturbance. And I do not think it is very polite unless you can turn down the volume. Another place is the airplane. As we all know that it is very dangerous to have a phone call in an airplane. It may cause interference between the signals. Therefore mobile phone should be banned in airplanes unless there is a new technique that can avoid it. 002 Study in big cities or small towns. I definitely prefer to study in big cities. The most common reason for us to study is to find a good job. There are many more job opportunities in big cities than in small towns. If I study in big cities, I can do a part-time job while studying, and seize opportunities to work there after I graduate from university. In addition, the big city can provide us a plenty of internship opportunities. Moreover, jobs in big cities can offer more salary.So that’s why I think big city is more attractive to me. 003 Work in the office or at home I definitely prefer to work in the office. As we all know that home is a kind of place that can provide you with a comfortable environment to relax, but it is not for working. Working at home can makes you feel more and more sleepy. In the office, there is a good atmosphere to encourage you, and that can make you concentrate on what you are handling with. What’s more, the office will provide you with the facilities and documents you need for your work, so you are able to manage you work and issues more efficient ly. 004 Higher education should for all people or a certain people. I definitely think that the university should be open to all students. It is a right for every student who needs education to enter into universities no matter he/she is rich or poor. The more well-educated students the universities produce, the fast speed of development our society will have. As a saying goes, only to rely on investment equipment and infrastructure is not a long-term development way for a strong state, trying to improve the whole national quality and to invest in training people in education is the long-term development path.

If the following two things overlap with each other, which would you prefer: dinner together with your family or attend your friends’party on the weekend? 托福口语范文一: Personally, I would say I will definitely go to a family dinner.

So, I should keep families company. Additionally, as an adult, I am so overwhelmed with my schoolwork, like, assignments, presentations, and group projects. Seldom do I have time to interact with my families, thus I will never let go any chance to get more connected with families since they are such a big part of our lives. 托福口语范文二: Sample answer I would prefer to go back home to spend time with my family in a dinner party.
