托福口语task4答题技巧

相对〔托福〕独立口语而言，综合口语也是有着其一定的难度。比如，在托福综合口语的TASK4中，题目涉及的学术范围主要都是与留学的相关科目，分为生物、心理学和市场营销三种类型。下面是我为您整理的关于托福口语task4答题技巧，希望对你有所帮助。

托福口语task4答题技巧
首先，在第四题的reading部分，我们最重要也是唯一的主旨就是要找到题目中给出的学术话题的definition，Official Guide里面是这样描述阅读的意义的：Reading passage broadly defines a term, process, or idea from an academic subject。由于托福考试当中只有45S的阅读时间，我们只必须要用信号词寻找的方法找到拥有定义的那句话并且吵在草稿纸上就可以了。

常常出现的信号词包括：
(Definition)is known as
(Definition) is called
(Definition) is often referred to as
is a form of (Definition)
is a term used to describe (Definition)
occurs when (Definition)
One way(Definition) is by
找到了Definition，接下来就要进入听力的部分了，第四题其实也是对将来的留同学活当中最有帮助的一道题目，Official Guide里面对听力的描述是An excerpt from a lecture provides examples and specific information to illustrate the term, process, or idea from the reading passage。也就是说听力部分是讲课当中的一处节选，提供了阅读部分中关于学术话题定义的举例说明。因此在听力当中，考生只必须要听到教授举出的一个或两个例子并且与阅读当中的定义做一个连结就可以了。听力当中的例子基本上都是与我们的生活息息相关，因此用词文法较为简单，考生不必担心听不懂的状况。在听懂例子的前提下必须要按顺序记下事件发展的关键词。

听力与阅读的连结方法有二：
一是点对点的方法，也就是说在阅读和听力的同一句话里表达同一个意思，只是用词不同而已。例如：
Work in isolation from other artists = Kept his work completely private.
Outsider artists must invent their own ways of doing things you notice how unique it is and not at all like traditional art . = It doesnt remind you of anything youve ever seen before. Its very much his own.
两句话均出自TPO11，阅读当中用isolation和unique这些词来形容outsider artists的作品风格，听力当中又用private和very much his own这些表达方式来形容Henry Darger的作品，不同的词组和单词，但是是一样的意思。
另外就是点对面的方式，By observing the results, or consequences, of anothers behavior, people tend to imitate the behavior of another when they see that it leads to a desirable consequence---hoping to repeat it for themselves. = Thesister starts crying and screaming and mom buys the girl the toy. The little brother is there and he is watching all this. What do you think he is going to start doing when he wants something from Mom? He will probably cry and scream. Ifthe girl was punished to be forbidden to watch her favorite TV program, the boy will not do that next time because the result us undesirable.

TPO 19 的这道题在阅读当中形容social learning定义是人们会依据观察别人所做事情的结果的合意程度来决定要不要模仿这种做法，而听力当中有举出了一个姐弟和妈妈去超市的例子，假设姐姐的哭闹可以得到想买的玩具，弟弟将来就会模仿;假设姐姐没有得到玩具，还被限制了看最喜爱的电视节目，弟弟就不会模仿。

总之，涵盖了阅读当中的学术定义，和听力当中的举例详解说明，并且有效地将两方链接起来，一个高分的答案就呼之欲出了。同学在托福〔英语〕学习中一定要经过有效的培训与多次学习才干够达到熟能生巧的答题境界。
托福口语task4 可以为同学今后的留同学活打下坚实的基础，锻炼同学在学校中听课并且自己独立论文与报告的撰写和考前复习过程中参照书籍与期刊论文的能力的一个重要并且有效地培养。
托福口语实力升级四步走
目前，在答托福口语题目时的表现有如下四点：
第一、对题型和解题技巧没有熟悉就匆忙上阵
考托福口语，就像和敌人打仗。你不知道敌人怎么出招，你也就不知道你自己应该出什么招。这样，你打败仗就是必定的。建议：熟悉题型。

第二、缺乏迅速组织好答案的能力
考生在托福口语考试中，面临两点压力：
1、时间紧、任务重。托福口语的答案准备时间只有15-30秒，答题只有45/60秒。如果，没有接受过正规的训练，考生在考场上必将不知所措的、语无伦次。
2、要迅速浮现"完整的答案'，这也就要求考生的答案"浓缩精华'。没接受过"答案构思训练'，"浓缩精华'也是难以做到的。
第三、考场上表现得不够自信和大方
原因有二、
1、缺乏口语学习，导致考生在答题时表现得不自信。
2、性格过于内敛，导致考生在答题时表现得不够张扬。考场上表现得不够自信和大方不是形式上的问题，而是本质问题，因为这样以来，考生答题的音量就会小、发音就会模糊、分数也就不可能高。
建议：
1、"信心来自实力，实力来自学习'。
2、不管你在平常的性格如何，在考场内答题时，你必须表现得开朗、自信、大方。
第四、口语答案的语言缺乏表现力
总体来讲：英语语音不准确、语调无起伏、语言不流利、结结巴巴。
建议：
1、了解语音语调方面的知识(适当了解，而不要花太多精力在这方面)，提前发现并改正自己的语音语调错误。
2、天天保持大声、清楚、准确地朗诵一段80-120字的英文段子。
新托福口语考试热点话题：节日的意义
Purpose of festivals and celebrationsQ: Why do you think festivals are important events in the working year?Answer:Yeah. Its very important for two reasons.For the country, its a time to remember our cultural origin and our historical past.The whole country celebrates our root and its very inspiring.We become so proud of our past.I guess thats why festivals are important.For the individual, festivals give us a chance for relaxation as we often have a few days off. Its a time of fun, meeting friends, entertainment.So after that we feel like a new man.In a sense, holidays restore our balance between work and leisure.Thats also why we need festivals for China.
Q: Would you agree that the original significance of festival is often lost today?
构思:节日的初衷: 庆祝传统, 承上启下, 结束也是开始现在的节日: 人们繁忙, 感觉不到开始和结束的意义, 过完节,马上就再次投入到工作中, 有些单位甚至连节假日都加班. 人们也不在那么感动传统,倒是好好的利用节日放松了一下, 吃吃喝喝,购物,节日从tradition象 consumption过渡.更像是给了人们一个借口: 1. 放下工作 2. 奢侈享受 3. 见见好久不见的重要的人.这么讲的话, 节日也挺好的Answer:I think the original significance for festivals are to celebrate our tradition.Its an end to the old year and the beginning of a new year. So its a connecting day.But today, people are so busy, theyre under so much pressure and they no longer feel the transition between the old and the new year. Some companies even ask their employees to come in on holidays. So many people begin to feel that festivals are just as common as the other days.People no longer take the opportunities of festivals to honor their tradition,but go shopping, go to restaurant to entertain instead.So I think tradition is out, consumption is in.Festivals provide people such an excuse to put down their work, to spend money and be extravagant (奢侈的), and to meet people that they dont have time for during the working year.So in this sense, even the original significance is lost, festivals are still exciting.(163 words)
Q: Do you think that new festivals will be introduced in the future? What kind?
构思:世界变化快, 人们拥抱新生活, 世界西方东方交融,西方人开始吃饺子, 过春节; 东方人开始互相送巧克力和玫瑰花, 过情人节.人们开始尝试新东西,可能将来也会合计新节日.这样出色的节日不再是national, 而是international,这样不是很酷吗?听说,有些人今年开始过 男人节 8.3, 很有趣, 有点傻,但是不得不说也是一个新鲜 的尝试.
Answer:The world is changing so fast.People are embracing new lifestyles as East and West come together.Westerners begin to eat dumplings with chopsticks to celebrate Chinese Spring Festival. And Chinese young people exchange chocolates and roses on Valentines day. So, you see? People are experimenting with new life patterns.And its quite possible that new festivals may be invented or introduced.Wouldnt that be cool?What kind? Well, I dont know for sure because its the future right?But I heard this year, in my country, some people celebrated the mens day, which is on August the third.Its dorky. (书呆子) But its new and exciting, right.Will it last? I dont know.All I know is that this is an interesting attempt. (128 wds)
