5.托�？谡Z拿高分技巧
1、要保持邏輯思維的敏銳。
大家都知道，由于中西方文化差異，中國人的思維模式與西方國家的人思維方式有很大程度上的不同。由于受中國文化的影響，中國人一般表達(dá)時(shí)都會(huì)比較含蓄的進(jìn)行表達(dá)，但西方人正好和中國人的這種表達(dá)是相反的。西方人在口語表達(dá)時(shí)會(huì)事先在頭腦中形成類似于寫作一樣的大致的邏輯框架，對(duì)開頭(提出論點(diǎn))，中間(發(fā)展論點(diǎn))，結(jié)尾 (總結(jié)或辨析)進(jìn)行規(guī)劃。所以學(xué)生只要應(yīng)用了邏輯的開頭，以此來陳述立場，進(jìn)而發(fā)展論點(diǎn)，就會(huì)讓考官形成思想認(rèn)同，覺得你這個(gè)人邏輯思維到位，從而取得高分。而很多中國考生過于“含蓄”，回答問題毫無計(jì)劃性。以這種思維方式來與西方人進(jìn)行溝通，不僅影響雙方理解，僅考試時(shí)間(通常是45秒-1分鐘)，就不允許。
2、要注意語音和語法的正確。
中國考生在托福口語考試當(dāng)中的毛病可能就是語音的問題了。大環(huán)境就是這個(gè)樣子，這個(gè)只有考生自己在平時(shí)的備考過程當(dāng)，盡量的避免這類情況的發(fā)生，否則將會(huì)非常大的影響你的托�？谡Z成績。很多中國考生理解為說得快就是英語流利的體現(xiàn)，結(jié)果發(fā)音含混不清，很多考官重點(diǎn)考察的發(fā)音不到位，而在詞語運(yùn)用上過于簡單，信息含量低，影響考官打高分。因此，考生在陳述過程中要有豐富的抑揚(yáng)頓挫。對(duì)于語句重音、語調(diào)方式及停頓等，要掌握得自然飄逸。并注意口語的修辭化，對(duì)一些修辭能恰到好處地進(jìn)行引用。
3、要掌握好答題時(shí)間。
托�？荚嚨臅r(shí)間是非常有限的，尤其是在托�？谡Z考試的答題時(shí)間上，一般不會(huì)超過1分鐘。其中獨(dú)立口語考生需要在45秒鐘內(nèi)完成，而綜合口語你也不會(huì)有超過1分鐘的時(shí)間來進(jìn)行復(fù)述。所以在這里可以給大家一些小的托�？谡Z備考建議：平時(shí)考生在準(zhǔn)備口試的時(shí)候應(yīng)該強(qiáng)迫自己對(duì)于某個(gè)話題在最短的時(shí)間內(nèi)形成一個(gè)清晰、有邏輯性的觀點(diǎn)以及證明過程，并試圖先用中文表達(dá)出來，以后再慢慢地過渡到英語上面去。
