2.新托?谡Ztask1題目解析

參考答題思路:
1、To read books
、買 can feel about the amaze of the foreign culture through reading the stories and decription of the foreign country.
、贐ooks endow me with full of imagination and even more than the films do me.

2、To watch the films
、費(fèi)ore relaxing than reading books which are quite similar to textbooks or the school assignments that are boring and tiring;
②It provides a more vivid way to get a more direct impression on the foreign culture;
3、To form an online chatting group with local people
、買t provides the most updated information about the foreign culture compared with reading the books and watching movies which are written and filmed a while ago;
、贗t can help to not only improve the foreign language ability but also get a deeper understanding of the real foreign culture since communication with the local people is happening and offers us a real experience of the foreign culture;
難度分析及注意事項(xiàng):
此題考察考生有關(guān)外國文化的話題,考查題型為三選一題型中的文化類話題,難度適中。需要注意的是,有關(guān)外國文化的話題是Task1的經(jīng)典題目,另外,值得注意的是,此題與TPO23的Task1 非常相近,希望引起大家足夠的重視!!!
3.新托?谡Ztask2題目解析
Task2:
Independent speaking
題目:
Do you agree or disagree with the following statement that class assignments that are handed in after the deadline should always receive lower grades?Please give specific details to support your opinion.
考題解析:
經(jīng)典Task2 Paired-choice A/D同意與否觀點(diǎn)闡述類題目,只需給出觀點(diǎn)并給出合理解釋,切忌不可給出模棱兩可的選擇。此題無論選擇哪種, 只要給出合理的解釋即可,可采用推理與事實(shí)論證的方法進(jìn)行細(xì)節(jié)擴(kuò)充。
參考答題思路:
1、Agreement
、買t shows a respect to the policy of assignments submission should be on time;
、 It will be unfair to those who hand in the class assignments on time or even earlier than the deadline if students who hand in the assignments after the deadline receive the same grades or even higher grades;
、跧t is a good way to motivate students who cannot hand in the school assignments on time since lower grades can stimulate them to work harder to tackle their timing problem;
2、Disagreement
、賁tudents who cannot submit the paper might have some accidents, which is quite understandable;
②It’s not necessary to use this way to punish students since students are already busy with school work, which may increase more pressure on students;
難度分析及注意事項(xiàng):
此題是有關(guān)學(xué)生交作業(yè)早晚與分?jǐn)?shù)高低關(guān)系的觀點(diǎn)闡述類話題,題目難度適中,也是常考話題之一,一般會用到的方法就是對比、舉例法、推理解釋法。希望考生們對時下比較流行的熱點(diǎn)社會話題進(jìn)行總結(jié)并引起足夠的重視。
4.托福口語敘述的技巧
敘述性問題常常出現(xiàn)在托?谡Z部分的第一第二題,通常針對日常生活中常見的人事物提出問題,考生進(jìn)行描述或表達(dá)自己的看法和觀點(diǎn)。此類題目更多的是考查考生的思維應(yīng)對能力。建議考生在回答的過程中,應(yīng)該注意以下幾個方面:
1.盡量按照總分的結(jié)構(gòu)進(jìn)行敘述,單刀直入,這也是西方人習(xí)慣的表達(dá)方式。由一句主題句引出觀點(diǎn)與中心,讓考官能夠清晰地得知敘述的主題,從而打下良好的基礎(chǔ)。如果在考題中出現(xiàn)了問題,則應(yīng)該開門見山地回答問題,切入主題,闡明自己的觀點(diǎn),從而為接下來的詳細(xì)敘述理清層次以及節(jié)約時間,如果有多余的時間,則可以再增添一句總結(jié)的話語,使敘述詳盡完整。
2.在敘述的過程中應(yīng)該合理地利用邏輯詞匯,這樣使文章的邏輯順暢,條理清晰。中國人說話習(xí)慣靠上下文去分析句與句的關(guān)系,但是西方人不同,他們習(xí)慣用邏輯連接詞來表達(dá)句子關(guān)系,如果按照中國人的思維去說英語,在外國人看來就是一堆雜亂無章的句子羅列,這樣的分?jǐn)?shù)常常會十分的不好看。論點(diǎn)的敘述,則應(yīng)該盡量在草稿上簡單羅列,講述時由淺至深,增強(qiáng)邏輯性與條理性。所以,在練習(xí)口語的過程中,好請一位外教跟蹤輔導(dǎo),為學(xué)生糾正口音以及語言習(xí)慣等問題。
3.在描述時,應(yīng)該盡量將抽象的話語具體化,不能很空泛地喊口號做呼吁,這樣常常收效甚微。西方人習(xí)慣十分具體生動的描述,如描述環(huán)境很優(yōu)美,不應(yīng)該僅僅說“it''s beautiful outside”,而可以去描述flower,tree,bird等細(xì)節(jié),增強(qiáng)生動性。
4.面對十分概括的問題時,許多考生會覺得十分難以開口,只能讓時間白白流失,痛失了分?jǐn)?shù)。針對這類問題,托福培訓(xùn)老師會提供了一些?嫉目谡Z問題,并給出了詳盡的答案,并指出面對這類問題時,就應(yīng)該將問題縮小到一個具體的事物進(jìn)行敘述和討論,縮小問題尋找突破口,這種方法也是所有寬泛問題的應(yīng)對方式。
5.托?谡Z考試時間介紹
再分析時間把握之前,我們先來了解下口語考試都考些什么?谡Z移動6個題目,task1和task2為獨(dú)立口語,即根據(jù)一個familiar topic回答問題,一般來說,準(zhǔn)備15秒,答題45秒;task3和task4閱讀時長45秒,聽力時長1~2分鐘,準(zhǔn)備30秒,答題60秒task5和task6聽力1~2分鐘(有時候task6聽力近3分鐘),準(zhǔn)備20秒,答題60秒?谡Z考試的三個部分,難度逐漸上升。后面的綜合口語中還需要速記下要點(diǎn)幫助自己答題。
這類口語題的第二句話通常都是Please include specific examples and details in your explanation. 所以同學(xué)們也大可放心的跳過,此處又節(jié)約寶貴的幾秒鐘。綜合剛剛說的兩個技巧,我們完全可以把一二題的準(zhǔn)備時間由15秒延長到25秒甚至更長。接觸過口語考試的同學(xué)都知道,這多出來的十秒鐘可以辦成很多事情,可以多想一個分論點(diǎn),可以多找一個素材,這些對于拿高分或者保中等分,都是至關(guān)重要的。
