topic sentence + supporting ideas. Topic sentence是比較容易想的,甚至是可以虛構(gòu)的,所以問(wèn)題就落在supporting ideas的思路上。描述一個(gè)人,最容易的角度便是這個(gè)人內(nèi)在的qualities. 如:humorous, open-minded, easy-going, warm-hearted, community-minded, high driven, visionary, knowledgeable… 有了這些點(diǎn)之后,我們要想辦法把點(diǎn)變成線,也就是把一個(gè)觀點(diǎn)擴(kuò)充成一到兩個(gè)句子。
我們可以用描述的方法去講這個(gè)觀點(diǎn)同意轉(zhuǎn)換,如‘he’s a very open-minded person and he’s always flexible to changes. 同時(shí)我們還可以用舉例的方法來(lái)進(jìn)行擴(kuò)展,如 ‘He’s a high-driven guy and he worked so hard on his Toefl test, study almost 24/7.’
再來(lái)看一類托??谡Z(yǔ)第一題的考題:Choose an object you like and explain why it is of special value to you. Please include specific examples and details in your explanation. (TOFEL ibt 08.02.24),這道題屬于物品題,物品的題目也是一個(gè)??键c(diǎn),但是準(zhǔn)備的面比較廣,可能會(huì)出成:a type of pet (Longman p.52),a kind of game (Longman p.72),your important gift (Longman p.64),咱們可以從兩個(gè)角度去答題:
對(duì)物品本身的簡(jiǎn)單描述 + 物品的來(lái)源或是重要意義,如描述寵物可以說(shuō): ‘ coz he keeps me company, when I was sad, he was always by my side.’ 又如描述禮物可以說(shuō): ‘ The psp was a gift from my Grandpa, it was a credit to my hard work on the SAT test.’
再來(lái)看一類托福口語(yǔ)第一題的考題,If you could live abroad, where would you go? Explain why you would go there. (Longman p.42)。 地方題目也是常考題型,變換方式相對(duì)較少,比如有:the city you live (Longman p.31),a city you have always wanted to go (TOFEL ibt 08.02.02),your favorite place when you were a child (TOFEL ibt 08.03.08)等等。
地點(diǎn)題的答題思路為:景色,飲食,高雅休閑場(chǎng)所,教育,就業(yè)機(jī)會(huì)。如果說(shuō)美國(guó),景色可以描述national park, the beauty of nature well preserved, 飲食可以說(shuō)dessert, I’ve got a sweet tooth, 如說(shuō)高雅休閑場(chǎng)所,可以說(shuō)Broadway, or NBA games,教育可以談美國(guó)的大學(xué),就業(yè)機(jī)會(huì)可以談美國(guó)的500 fortunes. 再比如如果講蘇州,景色可以說(shuō)gardens,well preserved ancient building, 就業(yè)機(jī)會(huì)可以講講蘇州工業(yè)園,SIP,provides a lot of job and internship opportunities for graduates…
第四類??嫉念}目是event類,來(lái)看一個(gè)例題:What is the most memorable event you experienced in your life? Explain why it is memorable. (Longman p.50),類似的事件題的關(guān)鍵形容詞可以換為:embarrassing (Longman p.70), challenging (TOFEL ibt 07.03.03),disappointing (TOFEL ibt 08.03.30),hard (TOFEL ibt 08.06.17)等等。
較難的題可以出成:Describe a time when you needed help from others, how he or she helped you and what was the result? Please include details and examples to support your answer. (TOFEL ibt 07.04.29),這類題目跟個(gè)人親身經(jīng)歷有關(guān),考場(chǎng)上容易一時(shí)沒(méi)有思路,也很難去杜撰,所以應(yīng)在考前多去回憶童年往事,同時(shí)嘗試著用英文表達(dá)出來(lái),假如實(shí)在無(wú)法勾起美好的回憶,那就去杜撰吧, 注意是考前練習(xí)時(shí)杜撰,千萬(wàn)別到了考場(chǎng)上再去杜撰。
以上四類是托福口語(yǔ)第一題考察頻率最高的四大類,當(dāng)然還有其他類別的一些考題,如工作職業(yè)類(這類主要是關(guān)于人生的目標(biāo),職業(yè)的選擇,工作的興趣等等),學(xué)校教育類,new skill you would like to learn (TOFEL ibt 08.01.19),文化娛樂(lè)類,這類題目涉及到文化、藝術(shù)、娛樂(lè)等生活中常見(jiàn)的題材
