托福口语考试里面,第五题经常会被大家认为是比较简单的题目。但是在这个比较简单题目里面怎么做到从容应答,取得高分,也是很重要的。下面我们请陈孝文老师来给大家分析一下,托福口语第五题怎么作答会比较好~
在托福口语考试中,毫无疑问托福口语第五题是比较简单的,属于便于应答、得分相对高,且在综合口语题中唯一一个可以表达自己观点的任务,希望考生们一定要多加练习。在考试中,考生首先听到一段对话,听力内容非常固定,一定是一男一女讨论,一定有一个人在学校里遇到了一个问题,一定有两个解决方案,一定两个解决方案都有优缺点,所以听完听力要记下的点是:
1、对话中探讨的问题是什么
2、两大解决问题的方案是什么
3、两大解决方案各自的利弊是什么
第五类型题的提问方式非常固定:“briefly describe the problem that was discussed in the conversation and to state which of the two solutions you prefer, and explain why you prefer that solution”. 问题中包含如下四个要点:
1. The problem(对话中当事人遇到什么问题或麻烦比如时间冲突:time conflict等问题);
2.solutions(解决问题的2个方案是什么);
3.My suggestion(考生建议当事人作何选择);
4.My reasons(考生提供的原因,练习时最好做到提供2点原因,可直接借用听力中出现的信息,提供一个选项的好处和另外一个选项的弊端;如在听力中有漏掉的信号,也可考虑自己想理由自圆其说)。
答题框架如下:
In the conversation, the man/ woman has a problem that_______. There’re 2 solutions to solve out the problem. The 1st one is to ______,the 2nd one is to_______. Personally speaking, I suggest the man/woman to________. 1, _______;2, _________.
曾听过未经准备便赴考的这些“裸考”的同学抱怨,第五类型题貌似不难,听力的部分并不难懂,轮到自己输出表达时也不愁没话可说,但为什么最后的得分总是不甚理想呢究其原因,和考生的
英语水平未必相关,而是应答思路出了问题。很多同学都把重点搞错了,不要花太多的时间在总结问题和解决方案上,至少要有30S的时间是给出自己的观点。
因为是校园场景,所以很多时候听力当中他们遇到的问题可能各不相同,但两个解决方案的优缺点大多是那几个,所以我们只要有针对性的准备,这样就能事半功倍,接下来,介绍常见的3大常见缺点的表达方式
1.贵(学生永恒的难题)
Although it’s only several dollars a time, it could add up.
As students, we are always on a tight budget.
I think it’s better to save some unnecessary expense
it will still end up costing him some money.
2. 吵(住在同学家永远的缺点)
It’s too noisy
There are too many distractions
He can’t focus on his work, and get it done efficiently.
It’s not ideal place to study/ prepare for the final exam
3. 远(没钱修车,坐公交的缺点)
it’d just be a lot more inconvenient
He’d spend quite a bit of time on the road going back and forth.
He will also get tired.
This will completely mess up his daily schedule
