tse 考试同样由我国国外考试协调处负责承办。
报名一般应该在考试日期的前两个月开始。
各个考试中心根据各自不同的情况,按照中国国外考试协调处所规定的报名开始和截止日期办理考生报名工作。
考生报名应该持有考试中心规定的有效的证件并交纳报名费。
考试当天,考生应持准考证、居民身份证肌有效合格身份证件(指本人照片加盖公章的工作证或学生证、护照、军人身份证,由单位人事部门出具并附有本人加盖公章的照片的证明)进入考场,证件不全者一律等证件合格者入场后再作处理。

tse考试分为七部分:(1)用录音提问一些考生本人的基本情况。
新托福考试题型详解一、阅读(Reading):有三篇文章与老托福不同的是,考生不需要在答题之前通读全文,而是在做题的过程中分段阅读文章。
每篇文章对应有11道试题,均为选择题。
除了最后一道试题之外,其他试题都是针对文章的某一部分提问,试题的出现顺序与文章的段落顺序一致。
最后一题针对整篇文章提问,要求考生从多条选择项中挑选若干项对全文进行总结或归纳。
新一代托福阅读文章的篇幅比老托福阅读文章的篇幅略长,难度也有所增加。
这部分持续时间为1小时,在此时限中考生可以复查、修改已递交的答案。
二、听力(Listening):取消了短对话由两篇较长的校园情景对话和四篇课堂演讲组成,课堂演讲每篇长约5分钟。
由于是机考,考生在听录音资料之前无法得知试题。
在播放录音资料时,电脑屏幕上会显示相应的背景图片。
考生可以在听音过程中记笔记。
考生不能复查、修改已递交的答案。
这个部分持续大约50分钟。
听力水平无疑是新托福成功与否的关键,除阅读外,无论哪一部分都离不开“听”。
对于中国考生来说,听力却正是薄弱环节。
目前中国考生提高听力的其中一条有效途径是“听写法”,即把相关听力材料拿来精听,并把听到的内容逐句写下来。
也有专门用来练习新托福听写的软件,如新托福听写王软件。
“听写法”提高听力的一个缺点是,刚开始练习时可能比较费时。
三、口试(Speaking):把TSE(Test of Spoken English)融合在新托福中。
1然而与现行的TSE相比又有较大改动。
这个部分共有6题,持续约20分钟。
第一、二题要求考生就某一话题阐述自己的观点。
第三、四题要求考生首先在45秒内阅读一段短文,随后短文隐去,播放一段与短文有关的对话或课堂演讲。
最后,要求考生根据先前阅读的短文和播放的对话或课堂演讲回答相关问题,考生有30秒钟的准备时间,然后进行60秒钟的回答。
例如,短文中描述了对学校体育馆进行扩建的两种方案,对话中一位同学阐述了自己的立场,即赞成哪种方案,反对哪种方案,并列举了若干理由。
1.What do you think university students can do to manage their time the best?As a university student,we have much free time to manage by ourselves.How to manage the free time well is an important subject for us to learn. Attending the university, we should first set a ambitious target,so that we can have a clear goal to chase.In order to reach the goal,we will do things efficiently which will save us much time.And in this way,we can pay more attention to our major course,and make a balance between "the important" and "the less important". In my opinion,only can we choose the most important thing to do first will we be the master of time.By getting the touch with the outside world,we can update our knowledge appropriately and grasp the available information to make our study more easily.From the process,we can learn to manage the time best step by step.2.What is the most important achievement for Chinese people in hosting 2008 Olympic Games? Why?Different social roles has its own expectations, are made from their own social roles in which the requirements of the Olympic Games or claim, expect to achieve their goals. Therefore, certain social roles is the biggest harvest of results, not necessarily the largest role in some social gains. People always maximize their own interests to identify, evaluate the results of events, "the greatest harvest" is difficult to form a unified understanding.But in my heart the people of Beijing Olympic Games has left the world a dynamic, reform and opening up, ethnic harmony and peaceful development of the national image, leaving a healthy and promising, hospitality, civility, politeness, dedicated national image and win the world people today agree that China's development, and this is one of the greatest achievements of the Chinese//3.Please list the advantages and disadvantages of marrying a foreigner.I think the advantage is that foreigners in general quality of the high points, but they are more adept at communicating, not because a small or a small misunderstanding and quarrel. Furthermore, a very practical thing that the legal rights of residence in foreign countries. Others have included medical, health, insurance, welfare advantages are more attractive.With your disadvantages of different cultures, so when the inevitable communication barriers Furthermore you are not familiar with the environment of foreign countries, if they lose them you will feel a loss. Finally, the case of children and their parents should also be a big problem.4. Should romantic relation among university students be encouraged? Why or why not?As to the love of university students,I stay neutral on this problem.On one hand ,almost all of our college students are adults so we have the freedom to try our romance life.As we all know,love is an important part of one person’s life ,it’s not a bad thing for us to experience what is love.what’s more,if we could deal with our love in a good way.It is possible that love can be good for our study .While, on the other hand if we want to fall in love with somebody for we just feel lonely or envy others’ love.Then I think it’s unnecessary for us to begin it.In my opinion ,we won’t call away the feeling of lonely for we have a girlfriend or boyfriend.5. How can parents and children improve their mutual understanding?In fact, all parents are loved the children deep. But it’s not easy for some parents to show the love. That is a problem. Maybe many children think the parents are unconcerned. for example ,you spent great efforts to do one thing and you think it’s great. But your father says it’s just so so. Love is not a easy word to say out. In father’s eye, you did very well, he just expected you to become more perfect. So for parents ,they should not mean they love to children.For children.With the development of modern technology,the space where we live is becoming smaller and smaller. But at the same time,the distance between our heart is becoming bigger and bigger in one way. I think modern youngster should chat with family more other than face to computer’s screen everyday.In this way , parents and children will become frends .6. What are some of the constructive methods people use to deal with stress?As far as I am concerned,firstly, look inside. Try to figure out what is causing you to worry. Be specific. Then writing in a journal or talk to a friend about it can help you comfort your feeling. Secondly, analyze your situation. Find out what part of the situation is under your control. Access the problem to see whether the threat is real and whether you should worry about it. Maybe the problem is just a hypothetical situation. There are some other ways to relieve your stress, such as singing, shouting, dancing, and all other kinds of activities that you like doing. These can move your attention and reduce the anxiety.7. Please list the major factors that people usually consider in choosing a career and order them from the most important to the least.First, it must be because the work itself interests you, you love this work brings life to your lifestyle and the state;Next, choose a job, depending on the job can bring you added value, not just remuneration. To be really protected, can not rely on saving money, but increase the ability to rely on reserves. If you increase the reserve capacity, even if you want to leave you because of various changes in his job and the company is located, you can also find a new job immediately and continue in a new environment to protect their lives.Finally, you choose to take, "with whom to do. " Have the same values and work with people more likely to reach a tacit understanding and consensus, will work to become pleasant and relaxing, a lot less communication barriers. As a result, work efficiency and work quality will be greatly enhanced.8. What can society do to help the disabled?First,we shouldn’t discriminate agaist them.Seconde,we should treat them as a normal man. Because they have pride, they hope people to help them, but they most expect people to respect them.As a students, we can do ambassador for they. We can broadcast “care disabled people around us”.I will teach them how to live by themselves .such as…..secondly be friendly to them and give my hand to them whenever neededand help them awake the courage to live happily .such as….。

Students who perform well on the TSE will be better prepared for academic success in English-speaking environments.中文回答:2023 年英语专业四级听说考试旨在评估学生听力和理解英语口语的能力。
T est of Spoken English (TSE)1. Enjou your feelingsIn our life,it can’t be ignored to meet with anger,sadness,happiness and so on.When we keep company with others,every action is a reflection of our feelings.As though there is a relationship between reason and emotion,who can promise to control them freely by themselves,especially in a dabate?For example ,in a debate,your partner disagrees with you in some views,and you are of confidence on what you insist on.Then a long discussion without any results will be easy to make you flare up.The multinational you are doing your field project at offers you a job at a good starting salary ,then you will be on top of the world .No matter what you are doing ,such ad walking,eating,talking,even sleeping ,you cann’t help to smile.So,just enjoy your feeling,either sorrow or happiness.Question:How will you do when you want to cry ,let it go or prevent it?If I were in that case,I would cry to my heart's content in a quiet place without anyone around.In my eye’s ,cry is just a way to release my inner emotion,not a representation of weakness or somethings else.There is no reason for me to prevent it.2. Beauty can be boughtNowadays ,we can buy manythings,including beauty.Beautiful clothes of big-name brand dress us fashionable,and expensive skin care products make us look more beautiful.What’s more ,pastic surgery can even improve one’s appearance greatly.There is no doubt that such treasures for beauty costs a lot of money.But what it matters for a girl or boy loving beauty? Not only the young ,bu also the adultso afford much for beauty,Beacause an employee with a beautiful appearance will be more competitive in the job market and be so faced(有面子).If I had a lot of money ,I would pay more for something that will make my heart more beautiful.For example,I will do something polished(优雅的),such as playing piano and golf for myself.For society,I will pick up much money to those in need.In my opinion,those with beautiful heart is the most beautiful,no matter how much money it costs.3. Watch out when nature strikes back.As we all know,there are many natural disasters taking place on the earth.Once occur ,they will cause lots of damage.Take the earthquake of Japan as an example.The road is destroyed.The buildings are falling down.Further more it may cause tasunami and a nuclear leakage accident.Because of these, tens of thousands of people lose their life and thousands of homeless people.For example ,Theren is an awful affair that a great earthquake hit Japan this year.What is worse,the earthquake led to a nuclear leakage accident which really destroyed the environment around.Even though we can’t prevent it from taking place,we can decrease the lose.Many unusual phonomenna will occur before the earthquake,.For example,lots of frogs will appear on the road,and dogs will bark unusually.From these,we can predict its coming . Although the disasters is terrible,it is no use to complain and be afraid when nature strikes back.What we need to do is to bravely face up with disasters.4. Is work just another four-letter word?It’s not far away for us to be fresh from our college .And we have to face up with the job market.What I want to say is the attitude to work: work isn’t just another four-letter word. Itmeans that work is action ,not a word.No matter whether we are diligent or efficient, manifesting(/'mænifest/ 表现出)an excellent ability to prioritize([prai'ɔritaiz] vt. 把…区分优先次序) and to work under pressure.,there is no doubt that we keep getting along well with our colleagues, demonstrating a good spirit of teamwork.And we should perform well to get promotion,take on some new responsibilities.Only do we really do something ,will we get something in the work.Arguments for “Live to Work”Some people live to work. They want to have a fulfilling profession.Work that is worth doing gives mental satisfaction to the doer, and brings social and personal esteem.One should always enjoy what one does even if the salary is low. It is our duty to contribute to society.Whatever one does is a creative experience, even cooking, sewing, and other “do it yourself” activities.We shouldn’t regard work merely as a money-making process. We should take a wider perspective on work.To work is a human need and a unique human characteristic.Only when we live to work do we live nobly.Arguments for “Work to Live”Some people work to live. Work is a means to an end.
