文本分析
Title:
Revealing Coloration
考生对Coloration一词较熟，可猜测段落解释重点放在Revealing上。
定义:
❸中重复出现了标题Revealing Coloration，并且有非常显然的提示词known as 。结合内容，动物保护色是动物进行自我防御的一种策略。因此，该句是定义句。
注意点:
很多考生认为定义句一般出现在段落开头，但❷中指出许多动物用颜色作为保护，以预防捕食者的袭击。这属于背景表达，不是定义句。
❹中是对动物保护所采用的strategy的的具体描述，因为从句较长，考生应该对内容加以概括或适当舍弃。
笔记

听力内容：
❶ Theres a large tropical insect called the Peanut Bug. Yes, like the peanuts you eat. Um, and the ❷ Peanut Bugs front wings are colored so they blend in with their surroundings. But its back wings, which are usually closed andhidden, have these bright colorful spots on them. ❸ And when the Peanut Bugs are attacked, it suddenly opens its back wings and out pop these bright colors. And that surprises the predator and gives the Peanut Bug a chance to get away.Um, ❹ then you have a butterfly called the morpho butterfly. And parts of the morpho butterfly wings are very shiny. They reflect a lot of sunlight. ❺ When this butterfly is resting, this shiny part of its wings is hidden. ❻ Nowmorpho butterflies are often attacked by birds. So when a bird approaches, the morpho flies away. And when the morpho flaps its wings, all the bird can see are flashes of light reflected from the morphos wings. Those flashes of lightmake it very difficult for the bird to follow the morpho. And the morpho is usually able to get away.

关键点
1 Example :
教授在讲座中会用一个例子阐述阅读材料中的学术话题。在这种状况下，考生在复述过程中，应该尽可能地讲出该例子中的细节，并注意细节与细节之间的逻辑关系。
2 Examples:
或者，教授会在讲座中用两个例子阐述阅读材料中的学术话题，两个例子可能是有关于教授自身的经历，也有可能是来自其他方面。
注意点:
如果讲座中，教授讲述的是一个实验或者一项研究，考生务必从实验对象、实验过程、实验结果三个方面去论述阅读中的academic topic.
2 Examples:
❶ 中教授以the Peanut Bug为例来说明解释说明Revealing Coloration。
❷ 中，教授说道，Peanut Bugs的前翅是有颜色的，因此浮现出与四周的环境很和谐的效果。❸中，指出Peanut Bugs一旦被袭击，就会打开后翅out pop these bright colors，然后给自己可以逃离捕食者的机会。
❹中教授讲了另一个例子the morpho butterfly，来进一步解释说明Revealing Coloration。❺中指出，当这种butterfly休息的时候，翅膀的闪亮的部分就会被藏起来。❻中，教授持续说道，morpho butterflies 会遭到鸟类的攻击，而翅膀的保护色会让鸟类难以找到它们，而趁机逃跑。

两个例子可以从"自身拥有保护色'和"借助保护色逃离被捕食'两个角度分别表达。

托福口语task4答题模板：
In the reading, the article talks about___❶___, (which means___❷___)
In the listening, the professor gives out one/ two example(s) to explain the title.
For instance, ___________❸____________.
The second is___________❹____________.
Therefore, by giving out this/these example(s), the professor tells us the meaning of ______❺______.(optional)
托福口语task4模板解析：
依据拿到阅读材料，立即记下标题的原则，❶中说出具体title，之后依据提示词找出定义句，❷中具体说出definition。如果定义太长或难以概括，可以省略不说。
听讲座时，带着"老师用什么例子来进行说明'这个问题去听。听力材料的前两句话，老师会给出所听内容的概括性介绍。再结合阅读给出的概念。再听举例说明。其方法通常是举出扩大事例，举反例或是短文中概念的实际应用。
❸和❹处分别复述讲座中教授是如何用一个或者两个例子，具体说明阅读材料中的academic topic的。
最后，如果时间有多余，可以加上结尾句，在❺处重新说出阅读标题，概括整个回答。
托福口语task4范文：
In the reading, it says that revealing coloration is a defensive strategy used by animals to protect themselves from predators. The professor uses two examples to explain this concept. The first example is peanut bug. The peanut bugsback wings are usually closed and have bright colorful spots on them. When peanut is attacked, it suddenly opens its back wings to show its bright colors that surprise its predators. So it reveals the usually hidden bright color in backwings to startle its predators. Then the peanut bug can escape. The second example is morph butterfly. Parts of Morpho Butterflys wings are very shiny. When the butterfly is resting, the wings are hidden. When the butterfly is attackedby birds, it flaps the wings to reflect flashes of light that can make it hard for birds to catch the butterfly. In other words, it reveals the bright color of its wings to confuse its predators. So the Morpho Butterfly can get away.

练托福口语的技巧
1.Listen to yourself(听自己).如果你不能听出你自己的发音问题，就很难去改正它。试着把你的朗诵或演说录下来，并与以〔英语〕为母语的外国人士做个比较。
2.Slowdown(慢下来).很多英语学习者说话都求快，其实快不见得就说得好，说得越快毛病越不容易改掉。天天学习一点点，从声调到单词再到句子，慢慢来，急不得。
3.Pictureit(画图).闭上眼睛，在说话之前想想如何发这个音，想想嘴巴和脸的定位。
4.Copy the experts(模仿专家).英语为母语的人士是最好的老师。所以，注意听英语广播或英语电影、电视节目，听他们的发音，还要注意看他们的口形。不要看字幕，模仿你听到的声音，即使你不确定他们在说什么。
5.Practice(学习).发音有问题是不免的，因此很多人会害怕说错而不开口。没关系，多学习就好了，不要害羞。
6.Find a partner(找伙伴).从别人那里得到反馈是很重要的。找个也对提升英语水平感兴趣的伙伴，互相激励，互相比赛，多对话。
7.Be poetic(充满诗意).大声地念诗、〔演讲〕，专注在字的重音和音调。因为，诗歌通常都是琅琅上口，有节奏感的，多多学习有助于提升英语水平。发音准了，语调对了，语感慢慢出来了，这对记忆单词和交流都有好处。
8.Sing a song(唱歌).听热门英文歌曲并跟唱。唱歌可以以轻松的心情学习和使用单词，也可以帮助你学习节奏和语调，是寓教于乐的好方法。
