托福口语第六题模板口语第六道题目的出题模式是listening –speaking听力的内容一般是关于学术方面内容的节选,所涉及的范围比较广泛,可能是社科,物理,人类学等,听力材料的长度大概为1~2分钟。
考生在听和说的时候没有任何的背景知识可以参考,这个就是难点啊。
通常情况下,教授会给出一个概念的定义,例如, the coin , natural selection 等,或者一个事件的梗概,或者介绍一种现象来开始,之后会就自己前面提出的概念,故事或者现象展开论述。
在后面这个部分中,一些例子会被引进来证实和说明前面所提到的定义。
说的部分会要求考生概括听力部分的主要内容并听力部分的观点和事例进行详细论证,典型问法为:Using points and examples from the talk, explain XX (某种现象或定义)presented by the professor。
通过对这道题目和考试类型的简单分析,我们可以知道做这类题目的关键就是考试前的大量训练,考试中的认真听和灵活做笔记。
那么,究竟如何来听这个部分的内容,以及如何来做笔记呢?下面通过一个句子的例子来做以说明. Now listen to part of a lecture in a psychology class. Narrator: The professor describes the children’s psychology between eight years old and a half to ten years old, including the analysis of the differences between motherly love and fatherly love. Summarize the main points in the professor’s lecture. 解析:通过听这个题目简介,考生可以得听力的主要内容是关于八岁半到十岁小孩的心理,这个内容是基于母爱和父爱差异而进行分析的。
托福口语第六题模板1. 描述问题型模板直接说出问题是什么,就像跟朋友聊天一样。
比如,哎呀,你知道吗,有时候在托福口语第六题里,会给你一个学术概念相关的问题呢。
比如说关于动物的行为习惯或者是某种社会现象。
像我上次遇到的就是关于蜜蜂是怎么找到回蜂巢的路的。
我当时就想啊,这可咋说呢。
然后我就想到,我可以先简单地描述下这个问题,就说“蜜蜂啊,它们每天出去采蜜,那地方离蜂巢可远了,但是它们每次都能准确地回来,这到底是咋做到的呢”。
这样就把问题很直白地说出来啦。
你还可以举一些例子来把问题说得更清楚。
像如果是关于植物在不同环境下的生长的问题,你就可以说“有些植物在沙漠里能活,有些在雨林里能活。
沙漠里那么干,雨林里那么湿,植物是怎么适应这么大差异的环境的呢?比如说仙人掌,它在沙漠里,水那么少,它咋长的;还有那些雨林里的兰花,周围都是湿漉漉的,它又有啥特别的生长方式呢”。
2. 提出解决方案型模板先说出一种可能的解释或者解决办法。
就像这样说“我觉得吧,对于蜜蜂找路的事儿,可能是它们靠气味呢。
它们在出去的时候,会在路上留下自己特殊的气味,然后回来的时候就顺着这个气味找回来”。
然后再解释一下这个办法为啥可行。
“你想啊,蜜蜂的嗅觉很灵敏的,它们能闻到很微弱的气味。
而且它们在蜂巢周围飞来飞去的,肯定会留下一些自己独特的味道,这样就像是给自己画了一张回家的地图一样”。
如果是关于植物的问题,你可以说“我想啊,仙人掌在沙漠里能活,可能是因为它的茎能够储存很多水分。
它的叶子变成刺,也是为了减少水分的蒸发。
就好像它自己带了个小水库,还把自己包得严严实实的,不让水分跑掉。
而雨林里的兰花呢,它可能是因为适应了那里潮湿的空气,它的根可以吸收很多空气中的水分,而且周围的树木可以给它遮荫,它就不用怕太阳把它晒坏了”。
3. 对比不同观点型模板先说一种观点,“有人觉得蜜蜂找路是靠视觉,他们说蜜蜂的眼睛能看到很远的地方,而且它们能识别一些地标,就像我们人类看大楼啥的认路一样”。

一、【人物类】about people .What characteristics do you think a good teacher should have?(06. 3.3; 07. 11.3考题)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, which is quite essential for somebody to be a good teacher.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 a ll, 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 happened.. 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 leaveme 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 mos t.Sample answer:The person that really influenced me most was Ms. Xing---my college teacher who taught us English literature.Firstly, 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.二、【物品类】about objects .4. 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.

如何拿下托福口语第六题托福口语第34套,口语Task 6. 口语第六题通常是很多学生最害怕的题目,听力是学术类文章,难。
在没有听懂的情况下,很难在短时间组织语言来回答问题,今天我就TPO 34套的task 6,做一个范例讲解。
听力文本:(female professor) So, OK, we’ve been talking about frogs, and like all amphibians, frog has thin skin, which means they lose moisture through their skin easily. Now, typically, we think of frogs as living in wet environments. But for frogs who live in dry places, with desert-like conditions, this can be a problem. Frogs have been able to survive in such areas by having different physical features, special dry-climate features that help them maintain an adequate level of moisture in their cells and avoid drying out.Some frogs do this by preventing water loss through their skin. By creating a sort of covering over their skin, they greatly reduce their skin’s exposure to the dry air. The covering acts like a barrier that locks in moisture. For example, some frogs secrete[分泌] a substance through their skin, a fatty substance that they rub off over their skin using their hands and feet, which creates a waxy[柔软的,蜡色的] layer all around their bodies that’s almost completely water-tight.Other frogs maintain an adequate level of moisture through a different physical feature, one that allows them to store water inside their bodies for later use. A specially modified internal organ inside their bodies enables them to have a high water-storage capacity. So the frogs are able to absorb and store moisture during wet rainy times which they can rely on to get through dry periods. The aptly[适宜的,适当地] namedwater-holding frog, for example, has a bladder [膀胱]that is highly elastic and stretchable. When it does rain, the frog absorbs water through its skin and its bladder stretches to hold this extra water. The water is then slowly released from the special bladder into the frog’s internal tissues until the next rain which might not be for several months.笔记:Frogs, dry places, physical feature , maintain moisture1.Prevent water loss through skinEG. Covering, barrier,fatty Substance, rub off skin, layer , water-tight2.Store water inside their bodyEG. water-holding frogRain, absorb water through skin ,bladder stretches to hold water托福口语task6, 文章结构:Topic sentence: Frogs, dry places, physical feature , maintain moisture Sub topic 1position :Prevent water loss through skinExample :covering, barrier,fatty Substance, rub off skin,waxy layer , water-tightSub topic 2position:Store water inside their bodyExample : water-holding frogRain, absorb water through skin ,bladder stretches to hold waterSample Answer:The lecture introduced two dry-climate features of frogs.The first feature prevents water loss through their skin. Their skin can secrete a fatty substance, which they can rub all over their body using their hands and feet. And this waxy layer makes their skin watertight so as to reduce water loss.And other feature is modified internal organs that ensures higher water storage within their body. Frogs can absorb rain water through their skin,and store the water in their elastic bladder, so later the water can be released to their tissue to help the animal go for a long time.

【导语】托福⼝语考试有6道题,其中Task1-2为独⽴⼝语,是直接叙述观点,Task3-6为综合⼝语,要听完对话再来复述。
以下是⽆忧考整理的托福⼝语的常考话题内容,欢迎阅读!1.托福⼝语的常考话题内容 第⼀题常考话题: 谈论下你和家⼈/朋友的⼀次令⼈开⼼的事件。
⾸先,我们应该注意的是第⼀题的⽅法论是“⼀个主题句,两个细节(例⼦)”,再次需要注意的是答题的范围,⼀定是和家⼈或者朋友的事情,所以⼀个⼈发⽣的事情就尽量避免;最后⼀定要注意时态,这个地⽅问的是过去的事情,所以,通篇考虑的是过去时态,⽽不是我们最常⽤的现在式。
第⼆题常考话题: 你是喜欢去没去过的地⽅旅游,还是去去过的地⽅旅游。
此题是典型的⼆选⼀的题⽬,按照上课的讲解,此题我们有两种回答⽅式,A好,B好。
使⽤典型的2+1的回答⽅式,此题可以迎刃⽽解,讲满45秒钟绰绰有余。
第三题常考话题: 作为第⼀个综合⼝语题,第三题要求我们⽤45秒钟读⼀个学校的通知,通知很简单,就是说学校的打印政策发⽣了变化,以前的时候是打印免费,现在的话是只有前10页免费,超出部分按照5美分收费。
听⼒部分⼤部分⼈都可以听懂,但是我们的挑战存在于对于听⼒的精准复述,包括对于听⼒的个别词汇的复述,如打印的⾼效efficient,effective等。
所以对于听⼒的笔记和复述能⼒要求相对较⾼。
第四题常考话题: 在阅读部分,第四题⼀般是关于⼀个专业名词,我们需要去找主题句和表现形式。
听⼒则直接给出了2个例⼦,直接是解释了⼈们处理此事情的两种⽅式。
第⼀个例⼦是关于⼀个⼩公司招⼈的例⼦:⼩公司想招⼈,结果⼴告发了之后来了⼏百份简历,员⼯处理不过来,就随机抽取⼀部分简历看。
第⼆个例⼦是关于⼀个教授,他想要进步提升,就订阅了很多期刊杂志,结果读不过来,于是就直接全盘放起来了,以后找个时间专门去读。
第五题常考话题: 按照OG的讲述,第五题是典型的问题及解决的题⽬,在听⼒中,会有⼀个问题,这个问题绝对不是⼀句话的概述,⽽是对于问题的解释,⼀般2-5句话。
