托福口语七大高分技巧
托福考试当中,如果要说最难的一个考试部分,那么很有可能大部分考生都会选择托福口语考试了。托福口语获得高分也是最困难的,那么托福口语真的就没有办法了吗?小编为大家整理里一些提分技巧,给大家参考,大家一起来看看吧!
托福口语七大高分技巧
提分技巧一、
用简单的英文介绍事物,美国人和美国人交谈80%是想告诉对方这个事物是什么。我们的课本尽管词汇难度不断加深,但思维逻辑结构却只停留在一个水平上。中国人常说Where is the book(这本书在哪儿)?很少有人说What is a book(书是什么)?而美国的小学生就开始问:What is the book?这种Where is the book只是思维的描述阶段。但是我想连大学生也很难回答What is a book?因为中国传统英语教学模式没有教会学生表达思想的技巧。
技巧二、
同种事物不同的表达方式,如果已经学会界定,但理解还有偏差,那就要训练How to explain things in different ways。一种表达方式对方不懂,美国人会寻找另一种表达方式最终让对方明白。因为事物就一个,但表达它的语言符号可能会很多。这就要多做替换练习。传统的教学方法也做替换练习,但这种替换不是真替换,只是语言层面的替换,而不是思维层面的替换。比如,I love you(我爱你)。按我们教学的替换方法就把you换成her,my mother等,这种替换和小学生练描红没有什么区别。这种替换没有对智力构成挑战,没有启动思维。这种替换句子的基本结构没变,我听不懂I love you,肯定也听不懂I love her。如果替换为I want to kiss you,I want to hug you,I will show my heart to you等,或者给对方讲电影《泰坦尼克》,告诉对方那就是爱,这样一来对方可能就明白了。这才叫真正的替换。也就是说用一种不同的方式表达同一个意思,或者一个表达式对方听不清楚,举一个简单易懂的例子来表达,直到对方明白。
技巧三、
要有猜测能力,为什么美国人和美国人、中国人和中国人之间交流很少产生歧义?就是因为他们之间能“猜测”。雅托邦教学不提倡“猜测”,但小编觉得猜测对学好美国口语很重要。在交流中,有一个词你没有听懂,你不可能马上去查字典,这时候就需要猜测来架起一座桥梁来弥补这个缺口,否则交流就会中断。中国人学习口语讲究背诵,背句型、背语调,结果就是很多人讲口语的时候讲着讲着眼就开始向上翻,实际上是在记忆中寻找曾经背过的东西。如果他要是能猜测的话,我想也就不会出现这种现象。
技巧四、
在考试时事先在头脑中形成类似于写作一样的大致的逻辑框架,对开头(提出论点),中间(发展论点),结尾(总结或辨析)进行规划,所以考生只要应用了逻辑的开头,以此来陈述立场,进而发展论点,就会让考官形成思想认同,觉得你这个人逻辑思维到位,从而取得高分。
技巧五、
很多考生以为说得快就是英语流利的体现,结果发音含混不清,很多考官重点考察的发音不到位,而在词语运用上过于简单,信息含量低,这是不会有高分的,所以一定要注意语音和语法,考生在陈述过程中要有丰富的抑扬顿挫的语调,对于语句重音、语调方式及停顿等,要掌握得自然飘逸,并注意口语的修辞化,对一些修辞能恰到好处地进行引用。
技巧六、
掌握好答题时间,时间的把控是非常严格的,不管你说没说完,时间一到,录音结束,很多考生面对计算机,不自觉就会出现很多口头禅,有英文的:well,you know 等或者毫无意义的“啊、嗯”的音节,更有甚者,将自己的中文口头禅也说出来,这些无意义的词语出现在只有45秒的口语答案中,是很具有杀伤力的。
技巧七、
使表达更有深度,所以首先托福口语表达一定要有自己的思想,观点,好的ideas,积极向上的内容加上自己独特的见解,足够可以引起大家的关注,大家有了这个关注之后就要加深话题的内容,做一些背景知识的补充,说一些重点大家都知道却又忽视的内容,这个时候就会觉得你的论点有根有据,又全面,最后考生还可以结合最新的时代特色,使得口语考试也很贴近生活也很具有实时性。

托福口语话题广告对人们购物的影响
Some people believe commodities that are popular among consumers reflectthe power of advertisement rather than the real needs of people. Do you agree ordisagree?
Whether we like it or not, advertisement has been pouring into our dailylife. They are so powerful that some people believe that it is not the needs ofpeople but the power advertisement that makes commodities popular. Personally Idon't agree with this opinion.
First, let's make clear what the real needs of people are. Real needs canbe divided into two categories: the material satisfaction and spiritualsatisfaction. People tend to regard material satisfaction as real needs andspiritual satisfaction as waste of money and time. This is not true. Somecommodities may not be useful but they can give the owner a kind ofsatisfaction.
Second, let's make clear the reason why advertisement is powerful. The keyprinciple of advertisers is to grasp the needs of consumers, then pass thepotential consumers the information that their commodities can meet your need.Advertisers can promote the needs of people, exploit the needs or even producethe needs of people. But whatever they do, it will be based on the needs ofpeople.
But there are some advertisements that exaggerate the functions of thecommodities to tell the wrong information to consumers. They make thecommodities popular by cheating the majority of consumers. And also there aresome commodities that do harm to the health of consumers and to the society. Forexample, smoking is poisonous, but the advertisements try to make a heroic imageof the smokers, as the result smoking is popular among young men who aredreaming to become heroes in women's eyes. But such advertisements areminorities.
In summary, advertisements bring us convenience to choose the commoditiesthat can meet our needs. Most of the commodities are popular due to theirusefulness, only some of them are due to the influence of advertisement. (298words)

参考答案:郝新宇老师更支持通过表扬的方式教育孩子,认为正向的鼓励更有助于增强孩子日后继续做出好的表现,而批评则可能导致孩子变得驯服和羞怯,对日后的成长都是不利的。
Sample response:
In my view, I think compliment is the best choice.
Compliment will make children feel motivated and they might be more likely to repeat the good things they have done. After listening the praise from parents, seeing the smiles from teachers, getting the recognition from others, children will feel a sense of achievement and happiness, they will know their deeds are beneficial to others and next time they will also do good things to others, such as picking up the rubbish on the road or respecting the elderly and so on.
