2020年11月21日托福听力答案解析

TPO21Section 111.这段对话主要是讲一位新生在学校没有找到orientation的地点。

老师说：you can’t findyour orientation session? 于是答案在A和C当中，但是后来老师又告诉他，usually，they are in the auditorium。

但是男生表示他前几天去过了，那是general orientation。

他说：yes the general ones，I once went to one of those sessions earlier day, but now I need the one for my major, engineering. 这里就可以得出他找不到的是engineering department的orientation。

2.问找不到地点的原因。

对话中，男生说，my schedule said the meeting was in Johnsonhall然而地图上画的这栋楼叫做Morgen Hall。

但是老实说this used to be Jonhson hall，the problem is they changed the name to morgen hall。

老师说他很吃惊学校给了他原来的地名的地图，但是后来男生又说，这张地图是一个月前的mail，也就是寄过来的。

他说了I get the second one recently…最后重点在：I left that one in the dorm room. 也就是说他用的地图上的名字没有更新。

3.问这栋楼为什么更新名字，因为老师又说了:this building is renamed after one of outprofessors. She retired a few months ago. She is really well known in the world of physics. 这说明这位叫做morgen的人是很有名很重要的物理学家，所以以他命名。

托福听⼒真题及答案托福听⼒是⼀种对考⽣听⼒的考核⽅式。

是⼀般是两到三个部分，每个部分由⼀段对话和两个讲座，每个部分需要听的录⾳⼤约是20分钟，答题时间是10分钟，下⾯是⼩编收集推荐的托福听⼒真题，仅供参考，欢迎阅读。

2015年10⽉11⽇托福听⼒真题讲座1 哲学holism和reductionism的区别(两个学术研究的不同⾓度)⽤ants举例，先说D：每个ant有⾃⼰的task，每个⼩的part都发挥⾃⼰的作⽤。

教授下结论，看了individual的作⽤可以predict整体的作⽤。

再说H：解释整体的作⽤并不单纯个体作⽤的叠加，类似1+1>2。

即整体作⽤更⼤。

提到leader的作⽤。

再说蚁群有queen，但是queen主要是lay eggs⽽不是organize。

讲座2：植物学botany 讨论动物觅⾷与物种多样性，整个⽂章对⽐polar region与tropical region的动物。

Polar：⼀个动物吃多种⾷物，⽽且还migration，就是因为可以吃的东西选择少，不diverse，这些动物可以被称为generalist，举例foxTropical：动物可以吃东西选择多，⽽且climate stable所以吃⼀种就⾏，这样避免了animals之间的competition。

这些动物是specialist。

举例黄⽑的⼀个动物。

讨论这两种情况呢的利弊：tropical只吃⼀个，要是被吃的那个消失了，就会导致extinction。

说其实⼈类并不是extinction的主要原因，但是⼈类造成的harm也需要考虑，⼈类需要意识到⾃⼰⾏为的后果。

对话2:学⽣服务场景student和employee at theater的对话。

学⽣要买票，因为⽗母来了，要看看什么play可以看。

Employee说可以看哈姆雷特，同时推荐了season ticket给她，并告诉她三个好处：1. Cheep，因为有discount2. 可以卖extra ticket，但不保证座位在⼀起，因为这两部分票是分开卖的，⼥⽣说没有关系。

11月21日托福独立口语小范围预及参考答案1. You are a leader of a student organization. There isa freshman who is nervous in this environment. What would you do to help this student in this new environment?Personally, I would show him or her around the campus. Since I have firsthand experience about the university life, and I have unique perspectives about the campus and the school. By showing them around the library so they get a chance to know how to find reference when writing papers. Additionally, I can help them to be more adaptable to the academic environment. For example, I can give them advice/suggestion on what classes they should choose, and they should choose to take classes that are really interesting and easy to get a high grade in, also I will discourage them to take courses that are abstract and boring.2. A friend of yours is going to study at another university and he's worried that he won't be able to make any friends there. What suggestions would you give him and why?Personally, I would suggest him join all kinds of social activities, for example, like volunteer activities, fundraising, and going on field trip organized by the school. Also, he should joint clubs, like sports club, poem club, debating club, and even martial art club. In this way, he can interact with the club members. If he is lucky, he might come across someone who is from the same place of him or her. Additionally, he or she find someone who have the same hobby, you know, one has so much to talk about when meeting someone who have the same hobby.3. Describe a news article or story that you are interested in recently. Explain why you think it is interesting. Include reasons and details in the your response.Well, I would like to talk about a social event that took place in China just a few days ago. Actually,it was like a festival that young adults celebrate. It was on November 11th, and it called the Single's Day. On this day, e-commerce companies offer lots of promotion and sales on line, and it was so crazy on this day that basically everyone bought something, ranging from shampoo, and body wash to daily appliances, like freezer and washing machines. The sales figure of Alibaba, the major player in e-commerce, exceeded 9 billion US dollars thanks to the passion of the young singletons.4. Which of the following do you think is the best way to get to know a new school, joining a one-day campus tour, spending a weekend on a campus playing field or auditing the lectures?Auditing class is the best to know the university better, since faculty members are an indispensable part of the university. Their knowledge，teaching skills and even the way they teach the class represent the university. The values they uphold in the class are the ones that are cherished by the university. Plus, when auditing class, one can tell if there are lots of class discussions or not, also, they get to know the size of the class. These are important factors when choosing a university since nobody wants to attend a school, whose class size are too big. 1. Is it better to grow up in a large family or a small family? Explain why. Please include details and examples in your explanation.Personally, I prefer to live in a small family since you don't have to deal with too complicated relationships with lots of family members. For example, if there are lots of members in the family, one has to go the birthday party of every single person in the family and that can be really tiring. Also, a big family is very crowded and noisy. It is very inconvenient because one might have to wait for their turn to use the bathroom. You know, it is much easier for a smaller family to agree on big decision. Plus, in a small family, itis very quiet and peaceful, one does not have a lot of triviality to deal with, and it also provides the kids a quiet environment to study.2. Do you agree or disagree with the following statement: protecting the environment is just as important as developing the economy?Personally, I don't agree with that. Instead, I think protecting the environment is more important than develop the economy. Recently, there are rampant environment related diseases, like the lung problems caused by the haze and fog in big cities, problems. Plus, the global warming, pollution, and extinction are running wild on earth too. Also, we have to think of the future of our lives and the lives of the next generation. Actually, if the economy falls, there is still a big chance for it to pick up. However, if we don't protect the environment, and cherish the mother earth, it will be gone forever.3. Do you agree or disagree with the statement: employees should be prohibited to listen to music at work.Well, personally, I think it's a very bad idea to prohibit music in workplace. Actually, listening to music is a very good way for people to release their negative emotions, like sadness, or sorrow, or even anger. Employees might forget about the pressure in life and thus have a higher efficiency in the workplace. Additionally, music keeps people refreshed and spurs creativity and innovation. So, that is why it is a common practice for high-tech to allow the play of music in their office, just so that they can create a relaxing environment and be more creative, and thus make more breakthroughs in their field.4. Do you agree or disagree with the following statement : Participating in a team sport is the best way for young people to learn cooperation.Personally, I couldn't agree more with this plan. To begin with, one can socialize with their peers and make new friends by playing team sports. Actually, my teammate and Istruggle together for a common goal, offer each other motivation along the way, and I feel that I care something bigger than myself during the game, and I think this is very meaningful. Plus, I realize when playing team sports, I cannot win the game without working closely with my teammates. Based on these reasons, I find playing team sports very helpful to develop cooperation.。

Describethat trait.I would like to talk about my beloved mother who has much in common with me. Both of us are adventurous, humorous and warm-hearted. First of all, she is the most adventurous person I have ever seen. She is not afraid of taking risks at all. This May, she invested all of her saving in the stock market. Unlike others, she made quite a fortune. As a 50-year-old woman, she is eager to try various extreme sports, such as sky-diving, surfing as well as scuba-diving. Besides, she is so humorous that she would easily cheer me up. Last but not least, she is always willing to help others when they are in trouble, even she has never met them before.2.Choose one of the following natural environments and explain why you wouldlike to live there most: mountain, forest, desert, prairie, seashore or somewhere else? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.Well personally I prefer to live in a forest instead of living in a desert or in a plain because I think the climate there is better for me since if I live in a desert, that'll be way too hot for me. and if I live in a plain, i think there's gonna be a lot of wind going on and that is really uncomfortable. Um, but more importantly, I think living in a forest enables me to meet a lot of animals and plants. and personally I'm really into biology and i want to become a biologist in the future. so if i could live there and observe those animals, maybe i could do some research about them.3.Talk about one activity you will do in the near future. Explain why you want todo this activity.An activity I would like to participate in is volunteer teaching. My friend David did it last weekand he told me how great it was. They went to a small, under-developed village that‟s far fromthe city. David was assigned to teach them English. He taught them some basic greeting skillswhich they thought was fun.During class breaks, they gathered outside to play sports. Somekicked around a soccer ball, some played badminton and some played Ping-Pong. Everyone had agood time. Before they left, we made some donations to the school. People donated money, booksand school supplies. I would to join them next time.4.Talk about the biggest change in your country over the past twenty years. Pleaseinclude specific examples and details in your explanation.During the past twenty years, there have been many changes taken place in my country- China. The biggest change is the generalization of new technology. Take internet as an example, my parents never thought about booking restaurants or buying books only by using one finger pressing on the screen. Nowadays, we use internet to search the knowled ge we don‟t understand, buy film ticket in a lower price, and hand out homework at weekend…… We are doing the things which our parents haven‟t expected. Citizens‟ lives become more and more convenient after digital technology come into popular in China.5.An environmental group is planning to organize an activity to help protect theenvironment. What activity do you suggest and why?It is a fact that the earth is suffering from severe environmental problems. Measures should be taken to protect our environmen t. I‟d like to suggest an activity. I would invite many people who want to contribute to protecting the environment to go cycling around the west lake. Each bicycle would have a flag with some slogans concerning environment protection on it. There are two reasons why I would do this. Firstly, cycling is an eco-friendly activity. And it‟s beneficial to our health. If more people choose to go to work or go to school by bicycle, the environment will be much better. Besides, West Lake is the most popular tourist attraction in HZ. It would be really easy to draw a lot of people‟s attention.6.Describe how cellphones change people‟s lives. Please give your answer withspecific examplesand detailsI think cellphone has changed our lives in the following ways. First people do everything nowadays on their cellphone. Take myself for example. All my class schedules are on my phone. Sometimes I take audio notes in a class that might be going to fast for me which helps enormously. Also, when it comes to communication, cellphones are extremely important for us if not crucial. Especially in the case of an emergency, we can call or send text messages to get help or stay in touch with their loved ones.7.What are the advantages and disadvantages of eating in a fast-food restaurant?At present, people are too busy with their work or study to spend a time enjoying a meal. Hence, fast-food restaurants have been more and more popular. There are two obvious advantages of eating fast food. The first one would be saving time. Most Chinese employees have only one hour lunch break. If they could finish their meal as soon as possible, they will have more time to take a nap so that they would work more efficiently in the afternoon. Another reason might be fast food is not only tasty, but also economical. On the other hand, eating fast food has its disadvantage. The dishes cooked in fast-food restaurants are not as healthy as that cooked at home. It doesn‟t contain enough nutrition. What‟s worse, sometimes, it is harmful for our health, since the oil used in those restaurants.8.Your school has a program that allows students to visit workplaces. What placewould you choose to observe and learn about? 1. A science laboratory 2. A business office 3. A Television studio.Without a doubt, I would definitely visit a television studio. There are several reasons for it. First of all, I am a big fan of watching TV. It would be a fantastic experience to observe how a TV program is made. Secondly, I have a dream that one day I will be an influential TV presenter in China. But I have no idea how hard it is to be an excellent one. I guess I could learn a lot if I have a chance to observe in person. For example, I could learn how to prepare in advance, how to work with the camera and how to behave when accident happens. Last but not least, I might be able to make some friends who are working in the studio.9.What is the most effective way to resolve disagreements between friends?It is pretty common for people to have disagreements with each other. There are quite a few ways to resolve disagreements between friends, such as trust, honesty and respect. I guess the most effective way would be respect each other no matter how different your idea is from each other. For instance, Every summer, I would travel with my best friend Jessie. last time, we had a disagreement on the destination we would visit. She was looking forward to visit France because of shopping while I was eager to visit Japan due to the seafood. We didn‟t try to convince each other, but respect eac h other‟s choice. Eventually, we went to Thailand which is a great place for shopping and enjoying tasty food.10.What personal quality do you admire the most? Creativity, courage orintelligence?To be honest, it is not easy for anybody to possess these three personal qualities. Personally, the one I admire the most is creativity. There are two reasons for it. Firstof all, creativity is the quality I need the most. I have been educated in the same way with most of students in China. It is difficult for me to think differently from others. When it comes to finding a job, it is barely possible for me to stand out. Secondly, creativity could make people produce amazing works. Well, I am a big fan of painting.I have been learning painting for over a decade. Due to lack of creativity, all those painting created by me look mediocre compared to those created by talented young painters.11.Which of the following professions should be paid a higher salary: nurse, policeofficer or teacher? Choose one and explain why.Personally, I would probably say teacher should be paid a higher salary. There are several reasons for it. First of all, it is extremely difficult to be a qualified teacher. A teacher has to be knowledgeable so that he could solve a variety puzzles for the students. He has to be humorous at the same time. Otherwise, it is easy for students to feel bored in class. Besides, Chinese students are usually under a great deal of pressure. Well, Chinese parents attach much importance to the score their children could get, especially in the most significant exam, college entrance exam. Hence, in order to help them to get a more decent score, teachers have to pay much attention to every single student in China. However, the size of Chinese class is usually quite big, about 40 students in each class.12.Describe one family member who has different characteristics from othermembersI would like to talk about my beloved mom who is adventurous, humorous and warm-hearted. First of all, she is the most adventurous person I have ever seen in my life. She is not afraid of taking risks at all. This May, she invested all of her saving in the stock market. Unlike others, she made quite a fortune. As a 50-year-old woman, she is eager to try various extreme sports, such as sky-diving, surfing as well as scuba-diving. Besides, she is so humorous that she would easily cheer me up. Sometimes, I would feel depressed or upset, it is easy for her to cheer me up with a funny story made up by her. Last but not least, she is always willing to help others when they are in trouble.13.What are the benefits of talking to older family members?Well, Chinese people attach much importance to the family. In our culture, senior citizens in every family are just like treasure, because we can benefit a lot from them. First of all, old people usually have rich life experience. It is definitely a great idea to ask them for help when we come across some obstacles, frustrations and difficulties.They are always willing to give you a hand. Besides, older family members are usually wiser than young people. They could give you some useful advice when you feel confused about life. I still remember last time when I broke up with my girlfriend, it was my grandpa that helped me through that rough period of time. That‟s why I take so much delight in chatting with my grandparents.14.If your university is planning to improve its campus. Which do you think needs tobe improved the most: the swimming pool, the cafeteria, or the dormitory?I suggest that the university school improve the dormitory most. It‟s mainly because a good-condition dormitory can provide students a relaxing and comfy space which helps them concentrate better when they need to do their assignments in their dormitory. Last semester, the dormitories in my university got renovation, and a majority of students claimed that it‟s easier for them to focus on study with new the equipment like air conditioners. In addition, the improvement in dormitories will definitely attract new students applying for the university, which helps the university got more excellent students.15.Describe a present you have given to others. Explain why you think it isimportant.The present I‟d like to describe is a book about keeping a healthy life, which I sent to my mum as a birthday gift. It‟s significant for a couple of reason. For one thing, the book may help my mum improve her health condition by giving some useful suggestions on her diet. It contains the introduction of various food and their nutrients. Also the book shows how to develop a healthy diet in an accessible way. Moreover, the part about regular excises brings benefits to my mu m‟s health as well. The book recommends some simple excises that are not physical demanding but effective, so it‟s a wonder gift for my mum.16.If a high school is planning to organize an after-school activity for its students,what kind of activity would you recommend and why?I strongly recommend that the high school should organize basketball matches for the students. The most important reason is that basketball matches will help students build up their stamina, which brings great benefits to their study and the activities will certainly encourage more students to take part in sports rather than spend all day long on their academic study, which leads to a poor health condition and low efficiency in study. Second, Basketball matches are able to help students learn cooperation and competition, which are essential for them when they get started to work.17.Which one you will learn: play a piano, swim, and repair a car.Personally, I would probably learn how to play the piano. Firstly, learning how to play the piano is definitely a good way to cultivate myself. I could not only enjoy the music created by prominent pianists, but also learn much about music itself. In addition, if I am really good at playing the piano, I could perform in front of a large number of pe ople. It could give me a sense of achievement. What‟s more, it‟s easy for me to make a great deal of money, being a qualified piano teacher. Last but not least, I would be able to make some friends who have much in common with me. That‟s why I am so jealous of those people who can play the piano.15. What is better, independent learning or studying in groups? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.I suppose studying in groups has more advantages than independent learning. The first reason I need to mention is that studying in groups helps students get their visions expanded. When they have discussions with others, they can get new insights from other group members. In my Chinese Literature class, I always get new understanding about the works or the characters thanks to the opinions of my group members. Additionally, I believe studying in groups is helpful for students to develop their communication skills. They will be more sociable and learn how to get along with others.16.Which of the following groups would you like to join? Campus newspaper, hikingclub or dorm improvement committee.Without a doubt, I would like to join hiking club. There are several reasons for it. First and most important one is I am a big fan of nature. It offers a great opportunity for me to get close to nature, enjoying the sunshine, breathing fresh air as well as listening to birds‟ singing. Besides, in this club, I am able to make some friends who have much in common with me. it will be great to go hiking with some people regularly. You won‟t feel bored while hiking. You could also encourage each other when having difficulty going to the top. Furthermore, hiking is beneficial to my health. it could also give me a sense of achievement after I reach the top of a mountain.17.Your school is going to help the community. Which of the following would youprefer? 1) clean litters and trash 2)plant trees and flowers 3)teach childrenknowledge about the environment.I prefer to teach children some knowledge about the environment. On the one hand, children are the backbones of our future. It is much more effective to make them aware of the importance of protecting our environment rather than cleaning the street for them. After teaching them some knowledge, they might have some ideas on what kind of behaviors would do harm to our environment and some measured could be taken to protect it. The environment would be much better if students in the world are aware of it. On the contrary, if students know nothing about it, they would still keep littering or spitting in the street. It doesn‟t help at all, even though we clean the trash and plant some trees for them.18.How do you improve the education system of your country.Personally, quite a few measures could be taken to improve our education system. Firstly, everybody in China should attach less importance to the results of exams. Students from primary school, even from kindergarten suffer a lot from it. They have to spend extra time studying in order to get a higher score. It is a shame for them not to have any time to enjoy the only childhood they have. Besides, people could be educated in different ways. People are born differently. They are interested in different things. We should encourage them to chase their dreams instead of forcing them to do anything they dislike, or even hate. Furthermore, we could encourage them to be compassionate and independent.19.What kind of food do you recommend to add to the menu in your schoolcafeteria? Explain you answer in details.Personally, I would recommend to add western food, such as burgers, steak as well as spaghetti to the menu in our cafeteria. There are several reasons for it. First of all, we have been eating Chinese food every day. Although it tastes great and contains much nutrition, it feels fantastic to add any kind of food to the menu. Besides, I am a big fan of western food, especially burgers. I could dine in Mcdonalds every day. Furthermore, students could invite someone they like to enjoy a steak in the cafeteria at night. There is no need for them to go out anymore, which saves a lot of time and trouble. They could concentrate more on the date.20.Do you agree or disagree that it is a good idea for university to ask a student toleave school if he was caught cheating in exams? Explain your response in details. From my perspective, I don‟t agree with this idea. Everyone may do something wrongin his life time and some of the university students are still not mature enough, so there‟s possibilities for them to make mistak es. Nowadays education plays an important role in individual development, if university ask a student to leave school because cheating for one time, it‟s no doubt that the university creates an undue pressure on the student and it may do harm to the future of the student because this fragment of memory will be hard to release. I think school should only give the student admonition if he cheated for the first time.21.What are the advantages and disadvantages of requiring students to evaluate theirprofessors at the end of the semester? Explain why. Please include details and examples in your explanation.The advantage of students evaluating their professors is that the professors can improve their teaching after carefully reading the feedbacks from their students and school can also make some adjustment. Last year, my classmates and I thought our Chinese teacher wasn‟t responsible for us at all and wrote our opinions in the questionnaire; the school changed our Chinese teacher to a much better one afterwards. T he disadvantage is that there‟s some possibility that some students are not mature enough so they may revenge their teachers for their strictness and make trouble for the school.22.Describe a day that you enjoyed the most or was the most special to you. Includereasons and details to support your response.well the most important day for me is the college graduating ceremony last summer because that's the last day i spent at school and after that, i would say goodbye to all my student life. and I still remember that in this ceremony, a lot of professors and students gave speeches and we received the diplomas individually and after that we went out and took pictures with classmates and professors around the campus. And that is seriously the last day I remember i spent at school and after that I would be on a new page and i felt really excited about it.23.做志愿者Community service which one do you prefer (1) 帮助图书馆中人用计算机查书籍；(2) read for young children；(3) 把书和杂志整理到书架上.As for me, I prefer to read for kids. First of all, many adults are so busy that they don‟t have time to read for their kids. As we all know, it‟s hard for a kid to read all he wants because there may be some words he doesn‟t understand. I want to help them to get to know new knowledge through listening. What‟s more, I love being with kids because they always bring me new ideas which I never thought about before. And also, I feel satisfied after doing things for them.24.Describe a special gift you given to a friend and explain why it is important.Please include reasons and details to support your response.Well, I gave a diary to my best friend Fiona before she went to the US to study. I began to write this thing when I was a first year student in high school. I kept it for three years. I put pretty much everything happened between us into this thing, like the days when we flew to Japan for summer vacation without telling our parents, and when we spent 5 hours in a shopping center shopping around but not buying anything, and also the days when we had argument with each other and decided not to talk to each other any more. So it could be a good memory for both of us and it could also help her recall those good old days.25.What is your favorite place outdoors to do exercise on a nice day and why? Pleaseinclude details and examples in your explanation.Personally i prefer to go the park to do some sports when the weather is very good. That's mainly because i really like badminton. so um i need a really large place to hit the balls and stuff. so the park is really large enough for me to play badminton. Besides, when I feel really tired, I could just go to the other side of the park and watch others play and that is really interesting because they are really good players there. and i could really learn a lot of skills and techniques by just watching there.26.Imagine that you have to give up watching TV for one month. What would be themost difficult thing for you and why? Please include reasons and examples in your explanation.well if i have to stop watching tv for a month, the most difficult part for me is to find other ways to relax. I mean im now a high school student in China and I am in the third year, in the last year. So I have to spend at least ten hours at school attending classes, doing papers and homework and stuff, so i'm actually very stressed out and watching tv provides me a very good opportunity to relax to have a break. so if I couldn't do that, I have to find other ways like hanging out with my friends to relax.27.Talk about an object, tool, or piece of equipment that you depend on in your dailylife. Explain how it makes your life easier.I have to mention that I depend on my cell phone so much in my daily life. When cell phone wasn‟t that popular, I never thought about reading books or booking food only using a cell phone. It makes my life much more convenient after having it. Take my personal experience as an example, this summer when I was joining a training class, I only had a short 30-minute-break at noon and there‟s no time for me to godow nstairs to buy lunch, I used my phone to book different restaurants‟ meals everyday, so my cell phone helped me save a lot of time and meanwhile i had delicious food every day.28.Choose ONE of the forms of the technology in the list and tells why it changes(has had great impact) people's lives in your country?a) The airplane b)The computer c)The TelevisionPersonally, i think computers have the most important impact on people's lives in China .That's mainly because it makes our study, work as well as the social life more convenient than before. Take the study for instance, i used to write all my papers by hands, and it'll take me at least um two hours to finish just one paper and now with the computer, and with the software like office like words and Excel and stuff, it's so easy for me to type all the materials and the content into the computer and send it to the professors by emails.29.Describe a skill you are good at. Explain why this skill is important to you.I‟m good at photographing and this skill is ve ry important for me. First of all, I like traveling and I enjoy capturing the charming moment in order to turn it to eternity. Through taking photos of majestic mountains such as Alps mountain, and beautiful lakes like Kanas lake, the process improved my a esthetic appreciation. What‟s more, I love the time when I‟m viewing the photos I took with my parents. I can always gain satisfaction when seeing those fine arts and recollect the memory of the trips.32. Talk about a way that helps you to relax. Explain why this helps you to relax.Playing volleyball helps me to relax. First of all, it‟s a way to let off steam by striking the ball vigorously. I can not only ease my mind after playing it but can also gain energy from doing sport. It really motivated me a lot. What‟s more, I have opportunities to meet people who all have the same hobby, which is playing volleyball, and talk to them, get to know them. Making friends and talking to them is a way for me to relax myself. All in all, playing volleyball brings me a refreshed feeling.33.One of your friends has suddenly received a large amount of money and has askedyou for advice on how to handle this money. What advice would you give to your friend? Give reasons for your answerI will suggest her that she should divide the large amount of money into 2 parts. The first part can be use to buy a comfortable house for her parents and bring them to travel. Her parents spent a lot of time taking care of her when she was a child and now it‟s time to let them relax and sho w filial obedience to them. She can donate anotherpart of money to the charitable fund called shepherd‟s field Children‟s house. The children in that place are all orphans and every time I went there, they just called me “mom” and I feel impressed because of their poor life. In that matter, I advise her to donate the money to that fund.34.Suppose you have a friend who is coming to your city for a tourist visit. Whatsuggestions would you give your friends?First of all, I would suggest her that she should bring a map of Beijing. As we all know, Beijing is the capital of China and there are many place of interests which worth visiting. It would be much more convenient if she bring a map because the traffic system in Beijing is a kind of sophisticated and that would save her a lot of time. What‟s more, summer has just past. Although it‟s still warm during the day, the night in Beijing is a little bit cold. So I would advise her to bring several hoddies so as not to catch a cold.35.If you had the opportunity to travel to the moon, would you choose to go and why?Please use examples and reasons to support your answer.If I had the chance to go to the outer space, I would definitely choose not to do it because I think for one thing, this is gonna be very expensive, you know with all the equipment and stuff and I don't think i could afford it. But i think more importantly, um for me taking a space shuttle and flying to the outer space is not really safe. What if I got there and meet a bunch of aliens, and what if it's running out of the oxygen tanks. That'll be a lot of problems going on the way and what if i died and i think my parents would be very sad about it.36.Which one of the following factor do you think is most important when it comesto traveling. Low cost, good weather, or various activities?well the most important factor I could consider when travelling is weather because I mean the whole point of travelling is to do stuff outside . So if it's bad weather like it's raining or snowing , i would end up staying at the hotel room and do nothing, which would definitely ruin my holiday. um for example, last month i flew to Sanya, a city in Hainan to spend my winter vacation. and I was supposed to enjoy the beautiful sunshine on the beach. But it was actually raining all day for like three days. So I did nothing and I just stayed in my hotel room.37.What do you think is the most significant benefit that internet brings to our life?Explain why you think this benefit is import.

托福TPO21听力Conversation2文本Narrator: Listen to a conversation between a student and her public relations professor.Student: Hi, professor Gordin. I really learned a lot from your lecture, the one about analyzing all those different segments of the population. Oh, the official term is audience, right? I never imagine that one company could have over thirty audiences to communicate with.Professor: Yeah, a lot of students are taken aback by this, and some public relations consultants don’t figure it out until they’ve worked in the field a while.Student: Everyone thinks, public relations, eh, PR is easy, but there’s a lot to it. You really got to know what you are doing.Professor: Absolutely. So, Stacy, your email implied that you needed my advice about graduate school?Student: No, since my undergraduate degree will be in public relations, I’ve already decided to get a master’s degree in marketing. Sorry, I wasn’t clear. My issue is, I have got two require courses and two electives. I am trying to figure out which elective course is to take. My advisor suggested economics and accounting, but I am not really sure.Professor: About?Student: Well, I endured accounting and economics in high school and barely stayed awake, they were so ...Professor: Ok, Ok. I hear you. Eh... you say you wanted a master’s in marketing, you have got one more semester tillgraduation. Have you taken any marketing courses yet?Student: No, I figured I’ve got the marketing basis already since I have taken every PR in communication courses offered here.Professor: Well, there’s some overlap between PR and marketing, but there are important differences too. Marketing focuses on selling your product or service, eh, you know, attracting customers through advertising, and also building relationships with customers. That’s what a marketing department does. PR is all about, it involvesrelationships too.That’s why I am saying the two fields overlap. But in PR, you are developing relationships with a wider range of audiences.Student: Right. Like employees, suppliers, the media. I do understand this in theory, but aren’t you still selling your product, just in a different way?Professor: Not necessarily. Ok, do you remember that PR strategy I alluded to the other day? The one our university uses, a strategy that doesn’t overlap its marketing strategy?Student: You mean how the university invites local residents to attend certain lectures and classes for free?Professor: Yeah, this cultivates a sense of good will and helps the university avoid becoming isolated from the larger community. Bringing neighbours into our classrooms is good PR, but it is not marketing since our neighbours aren’t our customers, for the most part.Student: That’s why I want to focus on marketing in graduate school. Wouldn’t having expertise in PR and marketing giving me more career options?Professor: Yeah, but you’ll also want to enjoy your work. Sofor you electives, why don’t you take advertising principles and intro to marketing, which I teach? This way, you’ll find out if marketing is something you really want to pursue. Graduate School tuition is expensive, and these courses will give you a good overview of the field before committing yourself.Student: I wish my advisor had suggested those courses.Professor: Well, I am someone who has worked in both marketing and PR, so I can offer a different perspective than someone who only teaches.托福TPO21听力Conversation2题目1.Why does the woman go to see the professor?A. To ask which elective courses he will be teaching next semester.B. To get more advice on which elective courses to take next semester.C. To find out the difference between public relations and marketingD. To get help deciding whether to pursue a graduate degree in marketing。

2020托福听力考试题型及解题技巧整理托福听力考试有哪些题型?每种题型又应该如何解决?这些都是广大托福考生在托福备考的过程当中急需解析的问题。

今天小编在这里为大家带来了托福听力考试的题型介绍及解题技巧，并附带托福听力的备考方法给大家，希望可以帮助大家更好的备考托福听力。

2020托福听力考试题型及解题技巧整理一、六种托福听力题型易考点及其技巧点睛：所谓最大的技巧就是“反命题”，知己知彼，才能百战不殆。

想要在听力部分取得高分，不仅是在刚开始接触IBT听力时，乃至当临考的冲刺阶段在做官方样题时，也一定要将ETS的出题思路和考核要点贯彻始终。

1、主旨题一个段子的主旨往往出现在文章引言和开头处，而重复的最多往往一定是主旨!在听课堂演讲等学术性题目时，一定要首先把握文章最核心的主旨，主旨考题选项中过于细节的往往是错误选项;2、功能/目的题该题型类似于主旨题，对于任何一个长段子，首先务必要把握的是文章的主旨和结构，只有主旨确定了，才有可能去理解细节，做推断。

3、细节题主旨题和细节题主要是考察考生对于基本信息的理解能力(basic comprehension)，除此之外ETS所要考察考生的另外两种能力分别是对于语用信息的理解(pragmatic understanding)和整合信息、对全文结构把握的能力(connecting information)。

而基本信息的理解就占到50%的比重，可见主旨题和细节题的重要性。

对于细节题，大家不要走入误区，觉得所有的细节100%会考到，所以去关注每一个小的细节点，以至于舍本逐末，只见树木，不见森林。

对于细节题，大家要把握两个原则：第一、ETS只会考察我们和主旨有关的重要细节。

过于偏细节的实在没有听到，大可不必惋惜，影响后面的发挥;第二，牢牢把握住往往和考点向联系的重要信号词。

比如说表示因果的accordingly, thus等词对应于细节题中常考察的因果题。

而常见的和信号词相关的考点有逻辑时间顺序、举例、列举、相似或者对比、转折、强调、因果、总结、定义、建议、数字等。
