篇1:美剧《逍遥法外》中的托福口语经典句型
美剧《逍遥法外》中的托福口语经典句型
《逍遥法外》(How To Get Away With Murder)、《丑闻》(Scandal)、《实习医生格蕾》(Grey’ s Anatomy)都是美国ABC电台的热剧,编剧也同为一人Shonda Rhimes,这三部剧可算是口碑收视双丰收。
想当年,作为万千迷妹中的一份子,我也是冲着Coliver (Connor & Oliver)的CP和“大尺度”的标签去看的。后来发现剧情也十分紧凑精彩,每季的主线和每集的支线交叉,在第一集总是将时间线打乱,倒叙一件悬案,然后在大家紧张的推理下,一集集闪回、层层推理,最后出现真凶,往往还带反转。
就在上周,众粉们迎来了美国律政悬疑剧《逍遥法外》第三季季终,大家猜测了一季的凶手终于浮出水面,还是两集连播的福利,看得直呼过瘾。
不得不提的是,就在最近,剧中强势性感的女主维奥拉·戴维斯,凭借《藩篱》获得第89届奥斯卡女配角,是首个拿到艾美、托尼和奥斯卡的黑人女演员。接下来我就带大家来看看这部,乍一看三观不正,教人犯罪的神剧 “How To Get Away With Murder”。
1. PISSING TEST
为了救Annalise,Bonnie去男厕蹲点堵当地检察官,尿得好好地一回头,见到Bonnie一张面瘫脸,还有一句句逼问。第三季的这位常驻反派来了这么一句“You know ‘Pissing Contest’ is just a metaphor, right?”
解析:这算是很巧妙的一个双关,首先,按字面意思来说,Bonnie的确是跑来旁观他尿尿;其次,英语里“pissing test”是一个习语,表示两人你一言我一句的争论,但怎么也论不出个理。
例:Joe: “I can piss farther than you can.”
Bob: “No you can't!”
Joe: “Yes I can!”
Bob: “No you can't!”
Joe: “Yes I can!”
Bob: “No you can't!”
Joe: “Yes I can!”
Bob: “Prove it!”
Joe: “OK, you go first!”
Bob: “No, you go first!”
Joe: “No, you go first!”
Bob: “No, you go first!”
Joe: “No, you go first!”
... and so on.
2. HOMOPHOBIC
剧终集一开头Connor失踪,同性男友Oliver去警局报案,但警察很不耐烦,不愿意立案。好友Michaela这里发挥了法律生特长,巧用这对男男CP身份说事儿,用“恐同”的罪名威胁。“Well, your lack of emergency could be constructed as insensitive as best, but homophobic at worst. We’ll ignore that if you at least us file a missing person report. ” 暗示警察你这个态度,往好了说是不敏感,往坏了说就是恐同。
解析: -phobic是一个很好用的词缀,表示“恐惧...的”;稍微变形一下,名词形式为-phobia“...恐惧症”。在遇到口语学术题的时候,如果一个单词没看懂或听懂,至少通过该词缀大致可以猜测一个词义出来哈。
例:幽闭恐惧的claustro-phobic;旷野恐惧的agoraphobic;密集恐惧trypo-phobia; 恐高的acro-phobic;恐水的hydro-phobic;恐外的xeno-phobic;恐癌的cancero-phobic;恐新事物的neo-phobic;zoo-phobic恐动物的;
3. PIN STH ON SB
这季中很多人看不惯的“黑莲花”Wes死了,是第一个倒下的常规角色,女主Annalise一直把他当儿子一样看待。但最后为了洗清大家嫌疑,Annalise也不得不让死去的Wes来背黑锅,把他描述成一个童年创伤、精神不稳定的犯罪分子。讲到Wes死前语音消息时,她说到这么一句“He had the chance to sign the deal and pin it all on me.”
解析:“pin”的原意是别针、胸针、钉住等。作为习语“pin sth on sb”引申出来的意思是把责任、罪名归咎到别人头上,让别人来顶罪。相当于“blame sb for one’s own faults”。还有一个类似的习语“throw sb under the bus”这个形象也很生动,把某人扔到车下,意思就是让别人背黑锅,当替罪羊。
例:Don't think you can pin the robbery on me/ throw me under the bus. I won’t go down without a fight.
4. LIVE WITH ONESELF
在15集中出现了一个重要证务,也就是Wes在死前的语音消息。这段语音一直没有公开,大家都很担心会不会是不利的消息,毕竟在入狱前Annalise让Oliver赶紧把消息全部抹去。后来,才发现这是一段Wes为Annalise辩护的录音,也是最后大家转危为安的关键。“You can’t go down for what I did. There’s no way I could I could live with myself, so just... come home, Annalise.”
解析:“sb go down for sth”、“take sb down”这两个短语在律政剧里出现的频率还是很高的,按字面意思也很好理解,“某人因某事而落马”、“扳倒某人”。还用到了“live with oneself”意思是“毫无愧疚、心安理得”,经常以否定形式出现,表示“没法原谅自己”。
例:How can you live with yourself after you stole every penny from him?
新托福口语解析:Nest mate recognition
标题:Nest mate recognition
定义:很多种类的昆虫可以靠气味等信息辨别其他昆虫是不是来自同一巢穴,分清楚是敌是友。
听力
例子:一种在pine tree筑巢的蚂蚁,在觅食时,可以靠气温辨别其它的蚂蚁是不是也来自pine tree. 如果其它蚂蚁身上有pine tree的味道,那么说明来自同一个巢穴,可以分享食物,或者让另一只蚂蚁把食物搬回去;但是如果另一只蚂蚁身上有不熟悉的气味,说明它是其他巢穴的蚂蚁,就不会分享食物给它。

托福口语的表达要比发音更重要,所以,考生想要提高托福口语成绩,还需要花更多的时间放到积累多样性词汇及托福口语句型方面。
如何让托福口语内容更为充实
在托福口语的表达过程中,很多初入托福的同学往往都是比较关注于自己发音的准确。但是,在这里需要提醒大家的却是,如果根据托福评分准则来判断,托福口语考试评分首先是基于内容的逻辑展开和具体细节的表述,其次才是流利,发音能让人听懂就可以。建议考生把自己的思路、想法列个小提纲,用笔记来帮助整理思路,切忌大话套话,用实例支撑观点。
考生们平时练习时要注意思维逻辑、语言组织和词句质量,可组建一个资料库,毕竟15秒的准备时间太仓促,可将回答像写作文一样,一字一句的写下来并修改语病,随后大声读熟,再重新回答问题。
当然,标准的发音和语音语调也能为口语考试加分。考生也可将自己的口语表达录音,然后与标准的美音进行对比,从连读、元音发音、停顿等方面进行纠正。
综合口语任务的难点在于理解、记录听力内容,并用自己的话做口语复述,也就是我们常说的paraphrase (意译)。可以先锻炼自己听抄、听记的能力。然后练习将记录的信息用口语自然的表述。
每道题按此方法反复练习几遍,必会提高听力和口语表达能力。平时练习时要注重日常校园生活场景以及学术场景。考生可以就现有的托福口语教材为依据,直接对口语题目中的文稿做出总结归纳、口语复述。
托福口语备考过程是很痛苦的,要坚持,坚持在坚持。其实考生们可以从练习影视剧台词开始,这样比较有趣、生动,能够调动大家的积极性。
篇3:托福口语能看美剧电影提高吗
托福口语真的能看美剧电影提高吗
托福口语看美剧电影练口语学习方案:适合基础薄弱的同学
第一遍:主要了解和享受剧情,所以看着中英字幕可以帮你扫清理解上的障碍,这遍不要有任何压力,只要弄清人物关系,可以概括出故事情节就可以了。
第二遍:只看英文字幕,因为之前了解过影片中的情况,就对人物关系和剧情有了一定了解,遇到不明白的地方尽量根据情节去猜测单词或句子意思,有利于刺激听力。最好在学习的过程中,听到不懂的就暂停,有生词和好的表达也用笔记本记下来,方便以后进行单独的记忆和强化。
第三遍:看中文字幕,把第二遍猜测的句子或单词的意思进行对照,结合句子和语境增加词汇量。
第四遍:无字幕观看,看看自己是否能听出一些地道的表达,刺激巩固语音、词汇、影像在大脑中的语言神经,进行听写训练以及模仿配音,将自己的声音录下来,与原音比较,不断进行调整和完善。
托福口语看美剧电影练口语学习方案:适用于基础的同学词汇量2000+or 通过四六级
第一遍:关掉所有字幕,看自己能理解多少。其实从交际理解的角度来说,口头语言(Oral language)只占到35%,而非语言因素(指除了听说之外的眼神交流、肢体动作等)则占到65%。所以第一遍不看字幕,哪怕很多话听不清、听不懂,也还是可以根据故事情节猜测出大概发生了写什么。这种猜测、推断能力其实是很重要的,不论是考试中的听力还是日常生活中和外国人交流,其实很多时候你都不可能每个字都听得清清楚楚、完全理解,但你依然可以通过这种锻炼出来的猜测能力,使自己准确捕捉对方意图。
第二遍:看中文,用来检查刚刚自己的理解是否有出现偏差,偏差较大的地方作好记录。这遍下来,内容的理解上就没有任何问题了。
第三遍:只看英文字幕,进一步细挖剧中精华的语言表达,还可以停下来做人物模仿训练。
第四遍:关掉所有字幕,大部分的内容可以直接看过去,但建议选取5-10分钟左右的精华内容,进行跟读模仿训练,这是个提高语速、提高理解速度、修改语音语调的好方法。
托福独立口语题的破.解方法
1、详细具体(空洞的形容词和花哨的句子结构不能得分);
2、词汇量和语法现象要多;
3、规定时间内尽可能说快一点,多说一点,信息量大一点。
我深深知道,中国学生缺乏大量的语言环境,在仅有15至30秒的准备时间内要完美地做到以上几点是基本不可能的。那么,是不是要因为一个小小的口语考试就放弃我们在加州的阳光下散步的权利呢?当然不会!既然我们不能依赖于现场发挥,那么就通过平时准备,来大大减低现场难度要求。其核心就是——转化原则,在充分领会转化原则的基础上,创建自己的模板,以精练的短句,清楚的表达为主。
独立口语题破.解
新托福口语考试六大题型中的第一种是问你一个你所熟悉的人、地方、东西或者事件,你需要在回答中加入具体的例子和细节。例如:
choose a place you like and explain why you like this place.
请看看袁老师是怎么回答的:
Well, the place I enjoy the most is a small town located in France. I like this small town because it has very charming ocean view. I mean the sky there is so blue and the beach is always full of sunshine. You know how romantic it can ever be, just relax yourself on the beach, when the sun is setting down, when the ocean breeze is blowing and the seabirds are singing.
Of course I like this small French town also because there are many great French restaurants. They offer the best seafood in the world like lobsters and tuna fishes. The most important, I have been benefited a lot from this trip to France because I made friends with some gorgeous French girls. One of them even gave me a little watch as a souvenir of our friendship.
看出奥妙来了吗?
1、这个回答里用的全部是口语化的短句子;
2、按照正常的语速念完正好是45秒;
3、出现了多处非常具体的细节描写(得分点)。
4、有景色描写(beach)、有人物(French girls)、有事件(make friends),有具体事物(a watch)。
为何如此设计,等一下就会讲到。 然后让我们换一个题目再看看,还是用这些内容怎么进行回答:
题目:Choose a restaurant you like and explain why you like this restaurant
参考答案:Well, the restaurant I enjoy the most is a French restaurant located on a beautiful beach. I like this small restaurant because it has very charming ocean view. I mean the sky there is so blue and the beach is always full of sunshine. You know how romantic it can ever be, just relax yourself on the beach, when the sun is setting down, the ocean breeze is blowing and the seabirds are singing.
Of course I like this small French restaurant also because it offers the best seafood in the world like lobsters and tuna fishes. The most important, I made friends with some gorgeous French girls in that restaurant. One of them even gave me a little watch as a souvenir of our friendship.
在新托福口语考试中,本题型能够涉及到的范围包括事件、人物、具体事物和地方。现在你是不是开始有些明白为什么袁老师的口语模板要包括人、地、事、物?然后我们再来做一些难度稍大的扩展训练,看看转化原则是怎么能够帮助我们以不变应万变。
Choose an important event/ a favorite activity and give reasons explaining why this event is important/ why this activity is your favorite. 从抽象的事物转化成具体的景色描写
Well, one very important event in my life/my favorite activity is a little trip to France. I like this trip so much because we visited a small French town. The town has very charming ocean view. I mean the sky there is so blue and the beach is always full of sunshine. You know how romantic it can ever be, just relax yourself on the beach, when the sun is setting down, when the ocean breeze is blowing and the seabirds are singing.
Of course I like this little trip to France also because there are many great French restaurants. They offer the best seafood in the world like lobsters and tuna fishes. The most important, I have been benefited a lot from this trip to France because I made friends with some gorgeous French girls. One of them even gave me a little watch as a souvenir of our friendship.
注意一定要有两到三句转化句,也叫点题句,即在文中标注出的句子。
扩展训练:
1. Describe one object that is of special value to you and explain why it is of special value to you. Please include specific examples and details in your explanation.
2. Choose a teacher you like and explain why you like him or her. Include specific details in your statement.
3. Everyone has a goal to fulfill. What’s your goal and explain why you want to fulfill this goal. Please include specific examples and details in your explanation.
(在看下面的参考答案之前,请自己先用转化原则处理一下上面的题目。这几个题目是袁老师精心收集的仿真题,仿真度可以达到90%以上,同学们要好好利用)
参考答案:
1. Well, the object of special value to me is a little watch. 点题,复述原题 the watch was designed for women and one of my French girlfriends gave it to me as a souvenir of our friendship. This little watch is of very special meaning to me because it always reminds me of those days I spent in a beautiful French town located by the beach. My watch is deep blue, as blue as the charming ocean view on the beach. You know how romantic it can ever be, just relax yourself on the beach, when the sun is setting down, when the ocean breeze is blowing and the seabirds are singing.
The most important, I made friends with some gorgeous French girls. One of them gave me this little watch as a gift. I cherish the watch just as much as we cherish our friendship.
2.Well, the teacher I admire so much is a gorgeous French lady. She was from a beautiful French small town located by the beach. She has very charming deep blue eyes, as blue as the ocean view on the beach. I admire her so much because she is not only a teacher to me but also a very good friend. Last summer, she invited me to travel to her hometown. You know how romantic it can ever be, just relax yourself on the beach, when the sun is setting down, when the ocean breeze is blowing and the seabirds are singing.
Also, she brought me to some restaurants offering the best seafood such as lobsters and tuna fishes. Finally, she gave me a little watch as the souvenir of our friendship.
3. Ever since I was a kid, I had a dream to travel to France. My parents told me that there is a little French town located by the beach. It has very charming ocean view. They told me the sky there is so blue and the beach is always full of sunshine. You know how romantic it can ever be, just relax yourself on the beach, when the sun is setting down, when the ocean breeze is blowing and the seabirds are singing.
Of course I want to travel to this small French town also because there are many great French restaurants. They offer the best seafood in the world like lobsters and tuna fishes. The most important, there is a good chance to make friends with some gorgeous French girls.
托福考试口语备考:“说不出口”怎么办
对于很多考生来说,谈到听读练习,会让大家联想到了听力备考的练习。但是,实际上,对于口语的备考来说,听读练习也是非常有效的。想会说,一定要听懂。从口语本身来看,口语要发音准,就一定要知道怎样正确的发音是准确的,自己才能正确的发音。建议大家可以找到个独立的环境进行练习。如果,不愿意通过与人交流来提升自己的口语能力,那就不妨带上个MP3边读边听、边纠正。在练习时候,大家一般都习惯了安静的教室或者自己的房间里。
另外,还需要提醒大家,在托福考试的过程中,周边的环境是略带嘈杂的。所以,在练习的时候,我们也可以找个有些的噪音的地方,让自己的声音大声朗读出来,逐步提升自己的音量,以便习惯之后的考场环境。
【模仿练习】
想要逐步让自己的读音逐步变得的标准,模仿练习是为重要的。既然是自己对着自己那就不再有太多顾及了。模仿时要大大方方,清清楚楚,一板一眼,口型要到位。对于语音语调的模仿是一个长期的过程,所以大家千万不能心急。同时,也建议大家可以找些VOA等等素材,反复听读,作为一个模板的素材。
【复述练习】
在托福口语中,有了准确的语言语调,还有语速也是其中存在的一个问题。如果在对话过程中结结巴巴,不但对于然语速受到影响,同时,也可能会让后的评分打折。那么,该怎样解决这个问题呢?建议大家可以从复述练习开始,找些身边的材料,一篇演讲稿,或者是一部电影内容,只要是自己感兴趣的内容,都可以作为复述的内容。语言应尽量生动、简练,有明确的情节,这样可以帮助你更好地把握语言的连贯性。

第一题是开放性话题,内容涉及4个大方面:人、物、地、事。要求考生在15秒钟的准备时间之后,用45秒来回答问题。这些问题都是最身边、最生活、最简单的话题,考生只要用最简单的语言答问题之所问即可。有些时候用一些比较复杂的词汇或者句子结构反而会成为口语熟练表达的桎梏。因此脑海中最先闪现的词或结构就可以摘来使用,当然这些词汇和结构要求恰当、合适。
(二)考生通常遇到的问题
<1>整体来看——语调缺乏起伏;流利度不够;流利但是发音不清晰,语调太平;衔接性不强。
<2>语言应用方面——用词不当(大词小用);句子结构有误;有明显的语法错误——思想混乱,三单、过去式形式错误,男女不分。
<3>话题开展方面——有理由,没细节;只有细节,没有提炼出理由;语言空洞,理由和细节不能支撑所持观点。
<4>中英转换时找不到合适且恰当的英文表达。如果考生出现了上述所有问题,那自然分数低的“可观”;一般考生只会出现上述个别现象,所以只要对症下药,就可取得比较高的分数。
(三)解决方案
1、每天的发音练习必不可少——至少坚持一个月。大家要记住:语音方面,如果不是糟糕的不可救药的话,都是可以纠正过来的,所以首先要对自己充满信心。那么到底要练习哪些音呢?其实就是国际音标中的6个困扰音,即中国考生最不容易发到位的音——[ɑ:]、[e]、[ ]、[ei]、[ai]、[au];考生必须对着镜子把嘴型做到位,不断读这6个音,同时也要读其相关的单词,每天至少要练习30分钟。
2、选择合适跟读材料,每天跟读30分钟——不必花费心思挑选跟读材料,只要跟读我们的听力材料即可,比如红、蓝色Delta中的听力材料,尤其是跟读简单的对话材料(因为其内容比较生活化,有些短语可借鉴到口语内容里)注意模仿其语音语调,至少跟读3遍,并且总结其中的常用英语短语表达。
3、每天10分钟的口语小段子——谨遵第一题根本原则——最生活,每天用10分钟的时间完成一篇口语小段子,内容是一天当中任何值得纪念的人、物、事、地,字数在93-107字。写完后纠正出语法错误,然后熟读自己写的段子,继续完善。完善后,尽量做到脱稿复述出来,要求流利且注意到语音语调;期间最重要的事情就是总结常用口语的地道英文表达,并且通过不断实践,不断使用来熟练掌握这些表达,为口语考试打好基础。
托福口语难点攻克 元音需饱满
经过长时间的摸索,发现了许多学生在回答IBT口语题时有一些常见的问题,如下:
1.观点给出的不是很直观,甚至说到一半时才知道观点是什么
2.条理不清晰,理由相似,逻辑关系不明鲜
3.吐字模糊,发音不清楚。
如果去突破这些问题?下面给出一些方法提示。
※方法提示:
一, 针对不同的题目,可以利用“通用的句式”来套用,何为通用呢,比如题目是State a good friend who had good enfluences on you,或 one of your favorite friends ...... etc.同一类的问题可以有一个共用的原因就是,很喜欢她的character,还有从achievement,thought 等的方面去讲,这些都是她为什么是你好朋友的共同原因。还有像relax way or good method to keep in good shape...,同样这些也是可以套用的 I pretty like... 或 I have to tell you that it is my best way...所以回答一些比较“难”的话题上,可以用此种方法去套。
二, 举例子,是对内容陈述的最好方式,来源于生活中的经历是最容易讲出来的,建议大家平时要养成写日记的习惯,或是随时记录一天中发生“重要”的事情的习惯,这些都是好的口语和写作的最好的素材,善于去积累。从这些实例中去扩展比空无的编故事要好得多。
三, 反答和建议,这是对回答问题技巧上的一个补充。
反答,Ex,some students prefer to live on campus but others like to board out, which opinion do you support?或者题目是do you agree with that students should live outside in stead of being in the dorm?
Answer: some students like to live out of campus but I prefer to live on campus...
建议,Ex,the video game should be refrained for their children?
Answer: I disagree... ... ... children should be given one hour free or once a week for playing the video game
四, 练习,在读完题目后的15秒钟内要在纸上列出两到三个“点”,这里所说的“点”也就是每个原因要陈述的中心词汇,然后在之后的45秒钟进行扩展。练习的内容是对支持的观点要快速反应,写在纸上。
Ex: 1. what are the features you care about when you go to a restaurant or café ?
1.atmosphere---quiet
2.sanitation --- diarrhea---disinfect
3.price---reasonable
4.food ---delicious ---bland ---not greasy
五, 从逻辑上去考虑,最好的搭配是分层次,也就是分出at first ,the next, in the end...之间的关系。这样一来条理就更明鲜了。注意之间的关系一定围绕观点去阐述不要改变方向,前后的原因一定要符合逻辑和明晰,简单明了是关键。
Ex,how do you solve the question if you might get , to ask the teacher or deal with it by yourself?
Answer: do it by self ,sometimes teacher won’t be here when i need them to question.(观点明确)
1.usually i can check the note which recorded in the class and look up from books
2. another way to use the internet, lots information can be given which can extend my thought
--this can give the train of ability to my study with independence(层次分明,简而易懂)
六, 发音的准确往往是我们最容易忽略的,有些认为说得快就行,但是整体听下录音发音,整体内容显得模糊了。建议先做一下发音的纠正,美音和英音的区别很大,发音纠正了,对听力也是有很大的帮助。有的同学抱怨听力听不懂太快,其中一个原因是因为发音不准,导致头脑中出来的语音与标准的美音有很大差距,建议大家可以做“跟说”训练,就是指听一些音频视频的同时大声地完全模仿,哪怕是连动作也要copy,神行兼备。每天甚少半个小时的模仿。发音应该力求:清晰准确,元音饱满,辅音清浊,鼻音浓重。速度均匀,这样能控制后面说的内容。 坚持这些方法,你会得到意想不到的收获。
托福口语要点简析 学会有效传达信息
目前大多数考生对“托福口语好”的定义似乎都是“说得相对流利,发音比较准确,语速不会太慢”,这无可厚非。然而,刚才提到的准则仅仅只是“口语好”的外包装,大家需要关注的更重要的是说话的“实效性”,即思维逻辑,语言组织和词句质量。新东方网托福频道为大家讲解托福口语怎么练才最有效。
托福口语是电脑录音,评判者是通过听录音来做分数评估的,所以,“说得快”未必是件好事,说得清楚才是重点。考虑到评卷者的“听觉疲劳”,说话的“断句”和重点词汇在重音和语调上的突出,则是有效传达信息的关键。所以同学们不要一味求快,而要注意断句,语调和重音。
语言的外包装,但做好了这一切是绝对不够的。正如每个人在打开美丽的包装盒时所期待的是盒子里面更加诱人的礼物一样,每个考官在悦耳的声音背后更想想吸纳入耳的绝对是有组织,有意义的词句。所以另一重对语言的要求也接踵而至,即说话的 “实效性”:思维逻辑,语言组织和词句质量。
在第一和第二题的独立口语任务中,大家需要作的是就自己的经历或向法来回答一些问题。题目主要涉及日常生活和一些社会现象,准备时间15秒,答题时间45秒。这类型考试的形式和面试很相似。15秒的准备时间形如虚设,根本无法让考生绘制一个好的答案。大家都知道,要想在面试中表现得好,事先必须有所准备,同理,要想在这两个题目上得高分,预先的素材准备时必不可少的。
我们先来看看关于如下题目的两种答案:
What is you favorite place for reading?
Answer 1:
I think my favorite place for reading is the library. First because in the library, many students are reading and you will read with them. Second because in the library, you can get many books easily, so you can get to the information quickly. En …so I like to read in the library.
Answer 2:
Unlike many people, my favorite place for reading is the park. I just like the atmosphere. Reading is tiring, and when I feel tired, I can look up from the book and see people jogging on the path and boating on the lake. Then I feel relaxed. Still, when your eyes feel tired, there are many green trees and lawns to give them a good rest. In the park, you can see many old people taking their beloved birds and dogs for a walk. This gives me inspirations. Indeed, I like to read in parks rather than in libraries or classrooms.
大家一比较就会觉得,前者了无生趣,机械死板,内容单薄;而后者新颖独特,语言丰富,内容翔实。第一和第二题的信心来自提前的准备。但考生又会有疑问,题目范围如此之广,涉题领域如此之大,怎么下手去准备呢?题目有无数,准备题目自然不是上策,而准备“资料库”,学会“借题发挥”则不一样,定会事半功倍,效果非凡。于是第一和第二题的成败关键就在于资料库的搭建和“转话”技巧的培养。
第三题和第五题比较类似,都是听对话之后回答相关的问题。听懂对话是成功的一半,而如何不失重点,合理有效的组织答案则是成功的另一半。对于听力好的同学而言,学习组织答案的技巧是关键。如果连声累述而没有重点,或是词不达意缺少亮点,岂不白白浪费了好的听力。对于听力能力欠佳的同学而言,如何把握对话的节奏,关注重要的信息,用说话结构的完整来弥补听力的不足都是重要的技巧。这些都是课堂上讲述的重点,也是备考信心的来源。
第三题:火眼金睛读材料,熟门熟路记重点。
对话模式心有数,有效信息尽入耳。
第五题:对话结构我知道,信息丢失不重要。
答题要点我抓到,说话结构都知晓。
第四和第六题类似,是通过听一段课堂讲座来答题。生僻词汇,快速语流给同学们造成了听力上的巨大障碍。于是大家首要解决的问题是如何对待听力材料,如何最好的利用听到何读到的信息,如何在合理的答题结构中来隐藏听力的缺失。这样的题目对说话的技巧要求是非常高的,而掌握这些技巧就是考试信心的源泉。
第四题:火眼金睛读材料,熟门熟路记重点。
讲座要点听于耳,答题套路埋于心。
第六题:听懂讲演是重点,记下信息是关键。
巧妙避开不利点,结构完美撑门面。
如果大家能够充分准备,知道托福口语怎么练,就能信心百倍,托福口语考试将不再是“鬼门关”,而是“凯旋门”。

托福口语范文:允许学生使用计算器
题目
Do you agree or disagree with the statement that young students should be allowed to use calculators when they are taking a math test?
Sample Response
I think that young students should not be allowed to use calculators on math tests because it is important to learn the concepts behind the math before advancing to time-saving tools.
Young children are only just learning the relationship between numbers and the concepts of math equations. If kids just plug numbers into a calculator, they may not understand, for example, that adding means putting different groups of numbers together.
Good math skills help solve other problems, too. If students understand how to break an equation into a series of steps, they can apply a similar process of simplifying problems in everyday situations.
Young students are learning the relationship between numbers and the processes of solving problems. Therefore, they should be encouraged to develop those skills well before they use tools like calculators on tests.
托福口语范文:家长是否要帮孩子解决困难
题目
Some parents prefer to help their kids to solve the problems and troubles they meet, while some parents prefer to let their children deal with difficulties by themselves. Which one do you think is more reasonable and why?
Sample Response
I think that parents should let kids solve their own problems and troubles. Of course, there are some dangerous situations where a parent should help, but for the most part, children should be allowed to come up with their own solutions.
First, parents need to remember that they will not always be there to help. Children will face many situations in the future on their own, so they need to become comfortable solving problems on their own.
Second, children will remember how to do things better if they solve problems. Even if they make mistakes, the kids can learn what not to do. The process is important for understanding how to solve other troubles in the future.
Therefore, I think that, when possible, parents should let kids learn to solve their own problems.
托福口语高分句型整理
篇6:托福口语中词汇和句型的使用方法
托福口语中词汇和句型的使用方法
托福口语有六道题目,虽然出题的结构不同,提问方式各异,但出题的方向是一致的,这六道口语题都注重考察学生口语表达能力,这种能力是讲解多少技巧,背诵多少模板都学不来的,只有通过练习,培养起学生对于语言的一种应用习惯才可以。然而,我们中国考生恰恰就是练习的太少了。如果老师告诉学生需要练习,但真的练习起来又觉得无从下手,收获不佳。今天我们就从语法方面重点讲解一下托福口语高分备考之路。
第一类 结构词汇—逻辑层次表达
老外表达口语非常注重表达的清晰度,所以,为了使听众能够听懂他们要表达的观点,他们会尽力说一些信号词。比如,我们会经常在托福听力中遇到这样的表达:
例句1
Since they were created underground and not from flowing surface water, not all these passageways have an opening to the outside world.
例句2
In fact, there is no evidence that flowing water has even gone in or out of the cave.
例句3
Also, in surface water, there is a weak acid, carbonic acid, not sulfuric acid but carbonic acid that helps dissolve the rock.
例句4
Well, by contrast, deserts and areas covered by ice and snow, these places have high albedo.
例句5
And clouds, in general, cloud also have high albedo.
例句6
At the same time, these clouds trap in some of Earth's heat.
结构性词汇非常多,需要考生在积累的同时能够应用到口语表达中……
第二类 重点句型
If之条件表达
If引导的条件句已经是我们用烂的句子结构了,但到了考场上很多考生会措手不及,if都忘记用,if条件句是很不错的句型,往往可以帮助我们换一种方法,来强调一下自己的观点,也可以填补时间上的空缺。
If that's true, it could have huge implications.
If the microorganisms near Antarctica really are responsible, perhaps we can accelerate the process somehow.
各种复合句型表达
复合句型是英语的半壁江山,我们经常会在口语表达中用到各种定语从句,主语从句,状语从句等,有些考生对这种句型已经烂熟于心,但在口语大考场上却排不上用场。
It’s the moving water itself that wears away at the rock and makes passageways.—主语从句
因果表达
Instead, many deaths and injuries in earthquakes result from falling objects and the collapse of buildings, bridges, and other structures.
Since they were created underground and not from flowing surface water, not all these passageways have an opening to the outside world.
对比表达
The walls are green, while the ceiling is white.
Well, by contrast, deserts and areas covered by ice and snow.
托福口语:常见问题答疑
面对机考的托福口语,我们该如何解决掉各种问题(包括考点、考题意图、机考特点等等),下面,小编就为大家带来托福口语的常见问题以及破题方法,供各位考生参考学习。
Q1. 人机对话,时间有限,常常说不完答案。
iBT,internet-Based Test, 计算机考试,并且对着话筒说口语,恐怕是很多饱受中国传统教育的学生最难适应的一点。其实,可以把这个口语考试想得很简单,类似于你在电话上跟朋友聊天,只是这个朋友不太爱说话,通常只问问题,并且希望你滔滔不绝让他开心。如果这样想,考试的本身就变简单了。同学们如果能将自己的通话录音,再回放,这个考试的心理防线基本上就能突破。
关于时间短或有限,就是要同学们学会长话短说,切入重点,如果能做到字字珠玑,妙语连珠,那就堪称完美了。当然,菜鸟成大虾,蜕变过程需要计时训练,策略性安排答案。譬如,在口语TASK3-4这两个:阅读+听力+口语的综合题目中,建议学生答案安排到秒:阅读总结15-20秒,听力总结45-40秒。对于时间和实践的结合,当然要通过夜以继日的练习了。因为同学们要清楚知道,说不完答案,你的等级不会到GOOD。曾经有老师大谈考试说不完,但是能暗示考官知道你有说完整的能力,这也能拿到GOOD。鉴于考试评分越趋严格,在有限的时间内完成回答是非常必要的。
Q2.话题广泛,综合能力要求很高,平时该如何下手。
话题广泛相较而言,是一个更棘手的问题,对学生来说。尤其是独立问题TASK1-2,虽然考察的内容都是关于学生的个人,话题基于经验,但广泛度还是很有难度。例如描述一个学习习惯,比较1前的人的卫生境况,甚至个人的职业选择等。这两道题目的准备时间为15秒,作答时间为45秒。对于一个成年人来说,想要在15秒内破题,45秒中全面展现观点,拿中文来陈述,难度都很大,更何况用英文。
因此,基于这样的一个考试形式,建议学生还是能系统的找到老师进行学习与归纳。建议学生能大量训练自己的快速思考能力。即使遇到难题,也是有基础,有方法去破解的。
Q3. 答题内容无章法,乱七八糟的感觉,有时都不知道自己在说什么。
托福口语,虽然不算是一种沟通,但它考察大家对话题的发展能力,语言使用性与传达力。如果,你觉得你说英语常常不知道自己在试图表达什么,那么你一定要重新学习下逻辑。这其实只是一个简单的逻辑层面,我们可以概括为语义关系,最常见的关系有:举例,因果,转折让步,并列与递进。当然,我们不能单纯把这些关系的学习就等价于关联词的学习,这是词汇跟写作老师的内容。
而口语老师,需要帮助你理清独立题表达思路,梳理综合题中阅读与听力的关联,信息的主次,及口语表达的层次。乱七八糟的感觉,一定不能出现在口语中,一个说话者若连自己的信息都无法解码,如何让听话者会意呢?再次重复强调下:托福口语独立题需要有话题发展思路,综合题需要谙熟信息间的关系并复述得有层次。
Q4.托福口语需要高大上的单词跟句型么,说中式英语怎么办?
这个问题,一定是很多口语学习者的疑问。口语不是写作。美国人日常交流与校园生活用语其实都颇简单,一个句子10个单词以内,用词贴切自然,语法更是常用。如果大家半信半疑,大可打开美剧或Ellen show这样的成熟的美国节目,一定不会失望的。
所以,建议同学们,用对的词好过高大上的词,正确的使用语法,好过专研并使用些不常在口语中出现的语法。例如,她说话尖酸刻薄。很多同学会去有道:tart, sarcastic.这两个词立刻出现。其实She has a sharp tongue. sharp tongue 简单地道。大家学习口语应该多关注口语表达。这样也能很快的破掉你的中式英语思维的症状。至于语法,大家学得已经非常多了,但能否在口语中表达正确,适当的增加语法的多样性跟灵活性是大家要去控制并实践的。
Q5.口语背背机经就好了,不想花时间在这里。
托福机经口语的确是一个高分利器。但是,利器也常常出状况。譬如8月份,16号和30号考试机经都未压中,尽管23号全中,这样的小概率事件的发生性还是需要诸位考生端正备考态度:一计在身,高分不愁。
此外,诸位同学,机经虽然有,但正确性无法百分之百,特别是综合题目的回忆,常常会有细节信息的错误,这些也会让你得高分遇风险。在同学们的考试反馈里,有中机经的同学反映:流利的说出机经答案得分不过23。建议大家对待机经答案应该是:读读参考罢了。想出高分,一定要破模板,高质复述。
篇7:托福听力材料之三部美剧
托福听力材料之三部美剧
1. 《办公室》The Office
起源于英国同名微型喜剧的《THE OFFICE》,本片记录了办公室的日常琐事以及发生在神经质老板Michael、马屁精经理助理Dwight、搞怪王销售代表Jim、前台小姐Pam和实习生Ryan之间的戏剧冲突。这部剧集的前三季紧凑的节奏,绝佳的笑料,被认为是继《老友记》之后不可多得的喜剧佳作。
最受大学生欢迎奖获奖理由:该剧故事情节虽然缓慢,人物关系也不算复杂,但是,每一集都有单独成立的故事和笑料,所以当一个宿舍有一个同学是该剧的忠实观众拉着其他人要跟他一起看时,室友们不会以不知道故事的发展情节作借口而拒绝他。这个特点让这部电视剧成为你和不期而遇的同学一同观看的最佳选择。
你可以用作谈资的剧中人物:地区经理Michael(Steve Carell 饰演)觉得他自己是世界上最冷静,最有意思,最棒的老板 - 然而, 在他手下雇员的眼里他却是一个最易激动的,最惹人讨厌的老板. 同事Jim(John Krasinski 饰演)不是在搔扰破坏那个自称无所不知的Dwight(Rainn Wilson 饰演),就是不停围绕在前台Pam(Jenna Fischer 饰演)身边.
2. 《迷失》Lost
一架飞机在一个神秘小岛坠毁,故事由此开始。生还者们慢慢发现这个小岛似乎曾经来过和他们一样的人们,他们的求救信号已经不停的播发了16年,但是,似乎没有人发现他们的存在。岛上弥漫着神秘的气氛,没人知道在这个岛上曾经发生过什么可怕的事情。故事的第一季就像一部剧场版的野外生存真人秀;到了第二季变成了一部科幻大作;而到了第五季结束的时候则延伸成了一部揭示人之存在意义的反思录。
最受大学生欢迎奖获奖理由:没有子女、不用整天工作、也不需要照顾父母,大学生们比普通人有更多的自由时间。为了打发时间总得干点什么,《迷失》刚好可以用来满足他们时间上的需要。六季整整120个小时的剧集长度足够让你花上好几个周末的时间躺在沙发上好好享受。除此之外,还有很多人愿意花上无数的时间去谈论各个人物的性格,甚至为这座神秘岛上的自然状况寻找科学理论的依据。有段时间,一些剧迷们甚至认为剧中那些人物都是已经死掉的,那个小岛其实是一座炼狱。
你可以用作谈资的剧中人物:问问其他学生他们对Jacob and Esau有什么想法。Jacob and Esau这两个隐藏在黑色披风下的神一般的人物总会带来无数的不解之谜。最好不要说太多你自己对他们俩的想法,你就多问问别人的看法:你觉得他们是好的还是坏的?他们在控制着人类吗?他们为什么要做那些事情?
3.《绯闻女孩》Gossip Girl
《绯闻女孩》(Gossip Girl)展现了一群美国纽约私立贵族高中的年轻人,他们拥有超级富有的家族、极具吸引力的外表、过着放荡不羁的生活。这群高中生们互相约会,甚至他们的父母之间也卿卿我我。他们彼此相恋,之后又彼此背叛。但是不管他们做什么,腔调总是十分的完美。
最受大学生欢迎奖获奖理由:也许你也有一点点希望能有机会成为这些喊着金勺子出生的孩子。他们在16岁时比你当年有钱的多(这得多亏他们纽约上东区的父母)。他们也会一直比你漂亮有型。每星期30分钟,你有机会偷窥到他们的生活。当他们成功时,你能见证优秀的人如何走向完美;当他们失败时,你会有一种看着自己班上最聪明最受欢迎的女生当众跌了一跤的快感。总之,不管你抱着什么样的心情来看这部剧,你总会得到满足。
可以用作谈资的剧中人物:这部剧囊括了所有时尚元素:服装、发型和妆容。如果你跟一个很喜欢打扮的金发女生说:你看起来简直太像Serena van derWoodsen了,或者对一位褐发美女说她有Blair Waldorf一样的气质,我敢肯定她们晚上睡着了都会笑醒。不过如果你是想跟一个男生建立友好关系,那么你最好不要跟他提这部剧。如果他们真的喜欢,他们自己也会感到有点点小小尴尬。
托福听力中什么信息最有价值
在托福听力考试中,什么样的信息最有价值?这是广大考生想在托福听力备考中想要弄懂的问题,判断信息的价值,可以节省我们的时间,提高做题效率。
从conversation题目来看,问题不重要,答案更加重要;答案的开始部分比较重要,因为这里是观点出现的问题,其后对于观点的解释相对次要;不是每一个question + answer的回合都重要,有明确的如Wh—的问题的回合才有价值,其后的起到confirmation作用的内容并不重要;不是每一个观点都重要,确定的观点才应该引起我们的注意,所谓的sometimes, maybe 等词语相关的句子往往只是起到对主要观点的铺垫作用;
相比较来说,lecture 这种题目的出题点更加难以寻找。Conversation的话题内容毕竟都是campus talks,所以难度不会太大;即使偶尔有一两个问题比较难,考生也可以果断地选择放弃,将精力投入到下一个问题中去,所以基本不存在考生在对话题目中根本听不懂或者因为一处听不懂影响对全篇对话理解的情况。
然而,lecture的内容包罗万象,新托福的官方指南给出了46个学科,而实际考试中也可能出现更多的学科和话题;lecture也没有 conversation题目中相对明确的回合概念,很多时候我们不得不根据上下文进行推理,在托福听力考试过程中理顺 lecture 的主要内容。
提高托福听力辨音能力的方法
1. 托福 听力 听写
听写指的是将一篇听力录音中的原文全部听抄下来。对于准备托福考试的考生而言,最好的听写材料就是老托的段子。听写能最有效地检验和提高一个人的辨音能力,听写之后对照正确文本,反复再听,直到可以全部听清楚为止,这是听力提高最有效的方法。
2.托福 听力 精听
精听指的是一边看着正确的文本一边听录音,听的时候要划出自己不熟悉的单词,在第一遍录音结束后查单词,然后再反复听,直到可以脱稿听为止。精听最适合的材料是SSS(Scientific American’s Sixty-second Science),因为它非常短,只有一分钟,但信息量很大,更重要的是,它是托福听力出题的重要来源
托福听力备考技巧攻略有哪些
有听出来的话,再听十遍八遍和三五遍的效果是没有太大区别的(no difference)。不过反复一两遍又太少。不要急着知道说得是什么,要通过反复三五遍,建立(to build)对整个句子的感觉(feeling)。
而后希望大家能够在总结的时候做两个工作。一是对照着自己写的声音材料(material)再去听一遍原文。再看着托福听力原文在心里默默地 (silently)把这篇文章读一遍,同时回想(recall)刚才在这里为什么没听出来。发现了问题,更重要的是采取策略 (strategy)来解决问题。如果因为是单词不认识,我就多记两遍。如果是因为发音问题(pronunciation issue),我就多跟读两遍。
如果是因为句型句式不熟悉,我就把这个句子单独提出来分析(to analyze)一下,然后用这个句型再造两个句子。其实一篇一分钟左右的文章(essay),如果我们每天坚持用这四大步骤(step)练一遍的话,一个月下来,托福听力水平一定会突飞猛进。
适合用来练习精听的托福听力材料包括:老TOEFL托福听力材料(material)中,Part C 的lectures和新托福iBT的lectures。新托福iBT的lectures很长,大家可以分成几次(many times)来练听写。
托福听力有哪些必考点
托福听力考点1、优缺点必考
此类题目一般集中于典型的高科技、生物化学类听力当中。比如笔者2008年2月14日参加过的考试中,有一篇听力考到了科学家利用细菌来去除海洋污染物的文章,文章中清晰地给出了此方法的优点和缺点,缺点的题目是一个多选题,基本就是原文中的比较耗费时间和速度比较慢等。所以,对于此类文章,一定要明白其相关的结构,这样才可以在考试中游刃有余。
托福听力考点2、原因、结果类必考
任何类型的lecture 题目当中都有可能会考到此类问题,一般来讲,表示原因的听力内容特别值得我们关注, 但是由于我们日常接触的原因类的词汇只有一个,所以会误以为只有because 是必考的,但是事实上,表示原因的还有since, as, for, the reason is that 等表达方式,这就需要我们的日常积累等。
托福听力考点3、专业名词必考
在托福听力中,我们经常会听到类似的说法如“this is what we call + 专有名词”,或者“this is +现象”。 一般来讲,此类专有名词是我们所不熟悉的,但是会用一种比较简单的方式表达出来,或者更难的考法是用另一个专有名词来解释一个专有名词,那么考点非常明显了,就是考察what is the definition for+ 专业名词。不管考试题目如何千变万化,考试的要点是不变的。具体的试题题目可参阅下TPO 的第四套题目的关于动物行为的那一篇文章。

此类题目一般会出现我们所谓的多选题,一般会考到具体的作用、表现形式、逻辑关系等,具体的题目在巴朗中多为常见,比如考到具体的绘画的三种作用,四种排水系统等,或者是修正主义对于早期农业的消极影响的三个方面表达等。需要各考生注意的是,专业名词在此类听力中可以适当使用缩略语以减少听力笔记时间。
托福听力考点5、例子必考
此类听力题目中经常会使用具体的简单的例子来解释某一专业说法,比如会使用我们放在冰箱里的食物会变坏这个例子来说明细菌的作用,也会使用自行车的轮子来说明某种排水系统,也会使用某一历史事件来说明绘画的具体作用。所以,当听力中出现for example, for instance, let’s say, let’s put it this way, just like, just as, as we all know 等说法时,我们一定要保持足够的警觉。
