实例讲解析托福口语第二题的解题技巧托福考试中口语部分一共有6个task需要一一完成,其中前两个task叫做独立任务,考查的是考生独立陈述和表达自己观点的能力。
今天,和大家介绍独立任务中task2的答题技巧。
托福口语 task2的考查形式是对于一个问题的同意与否或者一个话题的两种可能或两个方面的一方偏好。
所以,答题的步骤首先需要考生表明自己的观点,随后再给出自己的理由作为支撑。
表明观点对我们来说没有太大的困难,套用简单的模板加上句式的变化是很容易就能解决的。
而在提供理由作为支撑的部分,却成为广大考生的绊脚石并。
主要的原因有以下几个方面:1.对内容的陈述缺乏细节,绕圈子,意境朦胧,让人觉得不知所云。
2.对自己生活总结不足,不知道该说什么,想说什么,能说什么。
表达的时候缺乏信心。
3.就算准备过的话题也觉得没底,担心考试的时候考的刚好是这个话题中自己没有准备过的分项内容。
那么,如何有效地组织理由呢?在答题时,我们倾向于给出两个理由作为支撑,这样组织起来的答案比较饱满也不会超时。
基本的方法有三个,我们以live with roommates VS. live alone为例。
方法一、给出一方面的两个有利条件。
比如和室友住能够获得学习生活上的帮助;能够学会如何和他人相处,抑或一个人住能享受自认空间;学会自立。
方法二、在考试时不能及时想出两个理由时,则给出一方面的好处和另一方面的坏处。
比如,和室友住能够获得学习生活上的帮助;一个人住遇到困难时只能自己解决,而很多突发状况一个人是难以应付的。
然而,仅仅给出理由是远远不够的,还需要进一步的论证。
在之前我们有提到考生在回答时的困难有一点那就是对内容的陈述缺乏细节,绕圈子,意境朦胧,让人觉得不知所云。
这一点就在于如何进一步进行论证,在这里给大家提供以下几种简单的论证方法并仍然以live with roommates VS. live alone为例。
一、statistics 列数据摆事实很多时候,十句空泛的大道理比不上一个事实。

托福口语task2真题解析分享【高分回答】I would choose music history for a number of reasons.First, taking music courses has a ripple effect of helping students become better at other courses. When a team of researchers explored the connection between intelligence and music, they found that music instruction is far more effective than computer-based instruction when developing abstract critical thinking skills.Secondly, regardless of what we do for a living, all of us can learn from the past. Music is an integral part of our culture, a part that has ebbed and flowed in various directions over time. Learning about its history, and the ways in which it has changed over time, will make our appreciation for it much greater.我会选择音乐史的原因有很多。

托福口语综合题TASK2高频对话用词实例分析用法精讲托福口语综合题日常用语表达:come up口语环境中比较常见的一个短语。
主要有以下几个意思:(1). 发生在托福官方真题8的Task 3(相当于现在的TASK 2)中,学校打算要在餐厅播放古典音乐,让同学们在用餐时能够放松心情。
但是对话中的女生不同意这个观点。
由于她觉得许多同学在吃饭的时候并没有选择放松,而是:They like to study while they eat, especiallyif they have exams coming up or some assignment they have to get done.他们喜爱在吃饭的时候学习,当他们即将有考试,或者有需要交的作业的时候更是如此。
(2). 提到、消失The word “China” came up frequentlyduring the presidential debates.“中国”的名字在总统辩论中反复被提到。
关于这个短语,我们还需要办法的就是它的衍生短语come upwith. 这个短语是“想出、设法拿出”的意思,比如:After hours of discuss, they came up witha solution.在数小时的争论之后,他们想出了一个解决方案。
托福口语综合题日常用语表达:count oncount这个词作为动词,是“数数、差数的意思”。
但是后面加上了on, 意思就截然不同了。
count on这个短语主要的意思是“依靠、希望”。
比如有个女生想要去参与一次郊外旅行,但是事先答应好了另外一个教授来帮忙布置博物馆的展览。

托福口语t a s k2a b o u t e d u c a t i o n题库及答案Task2. About education1.Some students prefer to have classes in the morning and do their part-time jobs in the evening. Others prefer to have classes in the evening and do their part-time job in the morning. Which do you prefer and why ?Use specific reasons and examples to support your response .As far as I am concerned, I prefer to have classes in the morning and do my part-time job in the evening. First of all, as a student, attending courses is of the first importance. Thus I should give priority to class rather than part-time job. If I do my part-time job in the morning, I will probably feel exhausted in the evening and pay no attention to my teacher in classes. I mean, studying in the morning is much more efficient than in the evening. So, I will choose to attend classes in the daytime.2.Some students prefer to review their notes regularly; while others prefer to review their notes just before the test. Which do you prefer and explain why?As far as I am concerned, I prefer to review my notes regularly rather than just before the test. First of all, if the test is around the corner, having reviewed my notes regularly will not only diminish the time I spend on preparation for the test, but also probably get me a higher grade than those who review their notes just before the test. In addition, getting a good score is not the primary purpose of learning. Studying is for increasing one’s knowledge.
