关于托福考试新政你一定不知道的事 托福备考。关于托福考试新政，你一定不知道还有下面这两项项超大改动！ 关于托福考试新政策，你可能知道了考试时间缩短和可以拼分，但是你一定不知道还有下面这两项项超大改动！
我们先来看下在发布会上关于托福口语考试新政的表述，表述如下：
Which Speaking questions are being removed?
Independent Speaking item
The independent question being dropped is Item # 1, a task known as “Personal Preference”. This question asks the test taker to express and defend a personal choice from a given category – for example, important people, places, events, or activities that the test taker likes to do.
The independent question that will remain asks the test taker to make and defend a personal choice between two contrasting behaviors or courses of action.
Integrated Speaking Item
The integrated item being dropped is item # 5, a task known as “Campus situation” or a “Problem/Solution” item. The listening passage is a conversation about a student-related problem and two possible solutions. The question asks the test taker to demonstrate an understanding of the problem and to express an opinion about solving the problem.
通过以上描述，我们可以看出托福口语题目除Task1和Task5。
报考8月后的考生可以少练习两种题型，备考的时间成本也会降低啦！由原来的2道独立，4道综合变成了1道独立3道综合。考试时长由原来的20分钟变成17分钟。除的Task1是准备时间只有15秒的独立口语，现在独立口语只剩下一道了；Task5这道题目听力是简单对话形式。
还有一个变化就是引入了机器的评分，评分将变得更加公平，如果人和机器的分数相近，那就取平均分；如果人和机器的分数相差比较大，那将引入第三方人为进行评分，再取三方中评分相近的两个分数，剔除三方的较高分和较低分。
托福阅读方面
阅读题目数量减少。每篇文章14道题，变成了10道题。我们可以大胆的猜测一下，ETS到底减少了哪些题目？我认为可能会减少两种题目：一种是重复的题型，比如词汇题。另外一种是事实信息题，由于这类题型在每篇文章中的占比较大，对于学生能力的测试又相对来说又重叠，所以可能会除部分。
