篇1:托福TPO1口语Task5题目及参考答案

Now listen to a conversation between two students.

(man) Hey, Mary, how’s your volunteer work going? You’re still involved in that after-school program with the elementary kids?

(woman) Yeah, but I’ve got a problem. I am supposed to be driving a bunch of them to the zoo tomorrow.

(man) Yeah?

(woman) And I was supposed to rent a van for the trip. But I waited too long to call the rental agency to reserve one.

(man) Oh!

(woman) Now it turns out they don’t have any vans available for tomorrow. I don’t know what to do? These kids will be really disappointed if their trip gets cancelled.

(man) Hmmm, well, doesn’t one of your friends on campus have a car? I mean, couldn’t you borrow it for the day?

(woman) Yeah, probably, but I’d need to borrow two cars or there wouldn’t be enough space for all the kids.

(man) Um, hum.

(woman) That’s why I was going to rent the van. And then I’d need to find somebody else to drive, too. I can’t drive two cars by myself.

(man) Yeah, that’s true. Well, I am sure you can probably find a volunteer or if you wanted to save yourself the trouble of hunting down a second driver, what about public transportation? Check the bus schedule, I think there’s a bus line that goes right past the zoo.

(woman) Yeah, that’s a possibility, but I don’t know, it might be a real challenge supervising the kids on the bus.

(man) Ha, ha…

(woman) Sometimes they are a handful when they get excited. It’s an option, though.

篇2:托福TPO1口语Task5题目及参考答案

1. Listening keys

(1.1) Problem: the woman needs to drive some kids to the zoo, but waited to long to rent a van

(1.2) First solution: borrow two cars and get a second driver

(1.2.1) Pro: volunteers are not hard to find

(1.2.2) Con: troublesome

(1.3) Second solution: take the kids to the zoo by bus

(1.3.1) Pro: there’s bus that goes right past the zoo

(1.3.2) Con: not easy to supervise kids on the bus, because they are a handful when they get excited

篇3:托福TPO1口语Task5题目及参考答案

The woman’s problem is that she needs to drive some kids to the zoo, but she waited too long to rent a van. There are two possible solutions. The first solution is to borrow two cars from her friends for the day. The second solution is to take the kids to the zoo by bus. I think that going to the zoo by bus is a better idea. First of all, there is a bus that goes right past the zoo, it will be very convenient for her and the kids because they don’t have to walk too far. Second, it is very troublesome to borrow two cars from her friends in that short period of time, not to mention that she will have to find a second driver to drive the other car too.

篇4:托福TPO4口语Task5题目及答案解析

1. Listening key

(1.1) Problem: left class schedule back in the dorm, can’t find class

(1.2) Solution 1: go to the student center and check on the computer

(1.2.1) Pro: find the schedule for the whole day

(1.2.2) Con: might be late for class and leave a bad impression on the prof.

(1.3) Solution 2: check all the lecture halls one by one

(1.3.1) Pro: saves time; there’s an elevator

(1.3.2) Con: embarrassing to pop in and ask if it’s the right class

托福TPO4口语task5 范文:

The man’s problem is that he left his class schedule in the dorm and now he can’t find his class. There are two possible solutions. The first is to go to the student center and check his schedule on the computer. The second solution is to check the three lecture halls on each floor till he finds the right one. I think the first solution is better for the following reasons. First of all, if he looks up the schedule online, not only he can find where Introduction to Psychology is, he can also get his schedule for the rest of the day. Plus, it’d be really embarrassing to stick his head into each lecture hall, asking if it is the right one. It’ll disturb the other professors and students as well.

篇5:托福综合口语TASK5高分技巧一览

其次,考生需要把握一下答题时间,第五题的高分范文有着非常严格的时间布局,问题和解决方案的部分不应超过30秒;高分考生会把大部分的时间留给自己的选择及原因。

由此可见,在此题中,考官重视的是考生自己陈述理由的能力。因此,考生至少要留20秒的时间来陈述自己的观点。如果在讲述解决方案时时间不够,可适当省略解决方案各自的缺点,毕竟题目要求中并没有提出要涵盖此方面。

篇6:托福综合口语TASK5高分技巧一览

此外,在第五题中,虽说句型并不是评分的主导,考生还是要适时的加一些亮眼的句型出来吸引一下考官的耳朵。

由于在总结听力内容时时间紧迫,考生可以在陈述自己的选择及原因时适当增加些句型。尤其是在陈述自己的选择时,可使用高分句型:if引导的条件状语从句,例如:If I were the girl, I would do…或名词性从句:What I think the girl should do is…都不失为加分句型。

托福口语:模仿美式发音应该注意些什么问题

第一点:不滥用“美音”中的儿化音。各位都知道,在“美音”中,有许多儿化音,比如comer中的 mer,maker中的ker,等等。但据我观察,有些学习者不分具体情况,滥用儿音。比如我听过有一位朋友,将China中的na也念成儿音,而且念的很重,让人觉得很怪异,很别扭。“美音”中的儿音,通常只出现在er这样的字母组合上,并不是所有相似的音都发儿音,因此这一点希望初学者注意。

第二点:口头语言与书面语言最好保持一致。如果您选择了“美音”,那么您的口头语言(美音)最好与书面语言保持一致,也就是在文章中,尽量使用美国英语特有的词汇。比如有的同学,就是一口标准的“美音”,但他的文章中,却使用railway、shop、got等英国英语特有的词汇。既然你讲“美音”,那这些单词最好改成railroad、store、gotten等,以便让口头语言与书面语言保持一致。

第三点:注意某些国家的反美倾向。学完“美音”之后,去美国工作,当然没有任何问题,这是最理想的,但是万一您去某些反美国家工作,您就要考虑一下政治因素。一位巴勒斯坦朋友Shaath曾经说,许多巴勒斯坦人厌恶Hebrew(希伯莱语)和English(英语),认为它们是Satan(撒旦)的语言,是Zionist(犹太复国主义)的语言。当然,这是一种很偏激的政治观点,但我们可以从中看出当地强烈的反以、反美情绪。假如您今后是去这种国家工作,为了您的工作顺利,甚至为了您的人身安全,我建议您学“英音”!

托福口语常见答题原则分析

口语复述的原则

新托福口语考试共有六个题目,其中尤以后四个题目更加充分体现了融读、听、说在一起的特点。也就是说,在回答问题时,你不必慷慨激昂地陈述自己的观点,而是要利用听读材料中的具体信息回答所提出的与材料有关的问题。这其实就是在考察考生是否具备了对先前读到、听到的材料进行快速加工(归纳、总结、融合),然后再口头输出(变成自己的话)的&;ldquo;口语复述&;rdquo;能力。因而,为取得理想的成绩,在口试中,口语复述应遵循如下原则:

1.准确性原则(Accuracy)

准确性强调要准确挖掘与获取听、读材料的中心思想与细节内容,不能任凭主观臆想;同时还要注意用准确的语言输出。

2.完整性原则(Integrity)

完整性指的是:一要全面采集与应用听、读材料的信息,特别是不能遗漏任何重要的细节;二是所提供的答案语言要完整。

3.客观性原则(Objectivity)

客观性是指要客观陈述材料内容,不能妄加主观评论(除非有这样的要求)。

4.简洁性原则(Concision)

简洁性强调的是要采用简练的口语进行复述,不应过分堆砌辞藻。(当然了,几十秒钟的时间也不允许这样做。)语言要朴素,同时还要注意避免说出与主题无关的话语,更不能车轱辘话来回说。

托福口语:克服说英语的心理障碍

1. 没说话之前就在嘀咕,如果我说错了怎么办?

2. 我是用什么时态呢?

3. 我是说慢点呢,还是快点?

4. I THINK, I THINK……

5. 深沉着……

6. 抬头,眼睛向上翻着….. 寻找着……

一个从英联邦回来的高中生, 在那里读了2年的高中了,与他对话吓了一跳,我紧跟着问了几遍,你真的是从国外回来的?? 没错,原因是同学多数是中国人,而且参加讨论的课程也少,不愿意与人交流,心理上就在抵抗,那么说托福口语就更加的困难, IDEA全无,给人一种一片茫然的感觉,总是觉得自己会紧张,说不出来。

对于这种状况,先消除的就是心理疾病,在交谈中不断地鼓励和激励,并用一些适合他的方式来练嘴, 你就会发现当心理障碍被屏蔽掉后,他说话的流利程度很快的上涨,几天的时间就已经表现出来自信和流畅。

总结的说,口语训练,不是只有在英语母语国家才能练出来,中国有大批的没有出国的中国人,口语也相当的好,只是方法问题。更何况现在的信息发达,听和说的机会都相当多。我一直认为在托福考试中,口语和写作是最好拿分的。

篇7:托福综合口语TASK5考点及评分标准介绍

从某种程度上来说,Task 5是综合型题目里比较好拿分数的一个部分。新托福口语考试第五题属于校园场景,要求考生就大学生遇到的问题提出解决方法。在这个部分中,考生将听到一段发生于两名学生,或者学生与教授,或学生与在校职工之间的对话,时长约为60-90秒,没有阅读内容。

在对话中,通常涉及其中一位学生遇到的问题,两人会就此问题进行讨论,进而得出两个解决方法,但是有问题的那一方没有办法确定哪一种解决方案比较有效。

和第三题一样,对话双方为一男一女。考生要准确把握男女双方究竟谁遇到了麻烦。有时,遇到麻烦的学生会倾听另一名学生提出的两种解决办法。也有些时候,遇到问题的学生会自己想出两种解决办法,另一人给出反馈。但是不管是哪种情形,考生都将听到两种解决问题的办法及其各自的利弊。

对话结束后,考生将听到一个问题,该问题同时也会出现在电脑屏幕上。题目通常会要求考生简要总结问题并快速列举出两种解决办法。

而不同于综合型题目中的其他三个完全复述的题目,第五题口语题是唯一一道需要考生提供自己观点的部分,因此,题目要求中还需要考生选择自己认为比较好的一种解决方法并就自己的选择给出原因。由于从第五题开始考题中没有了阅读部分,考生的准备时间从前面的30秒减少到20秒,答题时间依旧为60秒。而第五题的提问形式也是大同小异的,常见问法如下:

1. The students discuss two possible solutions to the woman’s problem. Describe the problem. Then state which of the two solutions you prefer and explain why.

2. Briefly summarize the problem the speakers are discussing. Then say which solution you would recommend. Explain the reasons for your recommendation

不难看出,所有问题模式的目的都是一致的:要求考生总结听力里的问题及解决方案,但是都需要考生做出自己的选择并给出做此选择的原因。考生需时刻谨记,口语的第五题是需要有自己的选择的,不要在总结完听力内容后就此打住。

篇8:托福综合口语TASK5考点及评分标准介绍

和第三题一样,第五题会按照综合型题目评分准则评分。评分时主要考虑考生的语言表达能力、语言运用能力和话题展开能力三个方面。考生回答时必须“涵盖题目要求提供的相关信息”。如果给出的信息不完整或有错误,那么,即使语言流利、语法正确,也会被扣分。

第五题讨论的话题也很好理解,话题背景也都是校园生活。要拿到高分,考生仅需要理解对话内容,然后对该内容进行简要总结,选出自己觉得最好的解决方法并给出一个清晰易懂、有理有据的解释。

20.「毕业生生存指南(Post Grad)」

21.「实习大叔(The Internship)」--GOOGLE实习经历

22.「牛仔裤的夏天(The Sisterhood of Travelling Pants)」

校园谈资上的储备,托福口语三五类型题和听力的对话很贴近海外校园生活,都是绝佳的练习材料。

美剧Gossip Girl 里是上东区的生活用语,Gilmore Girls,One Tree Hill,Vampires' Dairies也都是以校园为大背景,如果想了解东西方文化差异,我强烈推荐大家看Grey's Anotomy。

托福口语参考答案:政府该把钱花在市民健康生活方式

Intelligibility是托福口语评分标准里面反复出现一个单词,译为清晰性;其实我们在评分标准里面还能看到对这个词的解释:easy to follow,回答者的逻辑一定要非常清晰并且不能出现任何造成别人理解困难的跳跃,站在rater(评分人员)的角度去考虑的话应该非常容易的就能跟上回答者的思路。当然在托福口语题目里面经常出details这个词。笔者就结合以上两个要求(清晰性和细节)对下面托福口语独立题目进行解析,并提供参考答案。

Should the government spend money on projects which can encourage its citizens to lead a healthier lifestyle?

I would say government should spend money on projects to help citizens to lead a healthier lifestyle, and I have the following reasons for support.(第一句话就亮出自己的观点,并给考官一个信号-下面是我的理由) Firstly, the government's supposed to take care of the health of its citizens. As a citizen, we pay a large sum of our income as tax to the government, tax money should be used to fund projects to improve people's health, like renovate local recreation center, hold free lecture for community members.(第一个理由,出现了一些细节如recreation center, lecture) secondly, spending money to help citizen live a healthier lifestyle actually saves money in the long run. Many health problems like heart attack, high blood pressure and obesity can be prevented by governmental projects. So, for these reasons and more, I agree with this statement. (第二个理由又出现了好多关于病症的细节如heart attack, high blood pressure and obesity)(共计123个单词)

篇9:托福口语TASK5综合题对话内容结构分析

托福综合口语TASK5题型简介

第五题属于综合口语部分,将听力与口语相结合,考察考生日常校园生活的方方面面。ETS官方在设计题目时,考虑充分,对于第五题和第六题,由于没有阅读文本,考生难以通过阅读进行预测,对听力部分做到心中有数,所以此两题的听力结构基本固定,便于考生抓重点、组织答案。

对于第五题来讲,难度与第三题相当,甚至可以说更为简单化,听力内容基本一致,围绕学生在校园生活中出现的问题进行了讨论,给出均有缺陷的两条建议。听力的开头部分基本都是在阐述问题所在,紧接着会提出第一个解决办法,并对其进行详解,提出不足之处,然后会引出接下来的第二个解决办法,加以阐释,并点明不足。听力结构如此清晰,同学们也不必担心抓不住重点。

篇10:托福口语TASK5综合题对话内容结构分析

例如TPO 10Question 5:

1. Student A:

Is there a problem with the electricity?

2. Student B:

Yeah, this storm’s smacked up power all over the city. And they aresaying it might be several hours before we have electricity again.

3. Student A:

Oh no! I have a history paper due tomorrow, and I’ve been writing iton my laptop computer and the battery is running low. I’m going to needelectricity soon.

4. Student B:

Well, you know, Jefferson City still got electricity, and there is alibrary there where you can plug in your laptop. You could go over there andwork on your paper. It’s only about a 20-minute drive.

5. Student A:

That’s a good idea. Of course I’d have to pack up all my stuff and itis raining outside.

6. Student B:

Yeah, that’s true. Well, why don’t you just ask the professor for anextension? You know, tomorrow when you go to class, just ask him if he’d giveyou an extra day to get the paper done. I’m pretty sure he’d agree, you know,with this storm and all.

7. Student A:

Yeah, that’d sure be a lot easier. But then he did tell us when hegave us the assignment that he wouldn’t grant any extensions.

8. Student B:

You don’t think he’d grant an extension in this case?

9. Student A:

I’m not sure. It’s a little risky. He might just say that we shouldn’thave waited until the last minute.

10. Student B:

Yeah, but maybe if other students had the same problem, you might beable to convince him.

11. Student A:

Yeah, I mean it’s not our fault the electricity went out, hm...

该题中,1和2两句话为两人见面的寒暄和回应,问题是在第3句话中提出来的,即The woman needs electricity immediately to finishher paper. 第4句为对方提出的第一个solution并加以解释,紧接着第5句就对该solution提出了质疑,即不足之处。因此对方在第6句中就详细阐述了第二个solution, 7-11句均是围绕第二个解决方案的不足进行的讨论。

大多数第五题的结构都是如此,前两句都是见面的寒暄,会为问题的提出设下铺垫,问题基本都在第三句或第四句中正式提出,随后即是对两个解决办法的讨论。同学们只要能熟悉本题听力结构,即可在做笔记时轻松抓住题点,易分清主次,逻辑更为清晰,回答时也不会出现思维混乱的情况;同时,对于结构的清晰掌握,也可在一定程度上弥补听力能力的不足。

托福口语:与动物相关的词语整理

1.He eats like a bird.

该句的直译为“他吃得像鸟”,然而是哪方面像鸟?是吃的动作还是饭量?这决定了这句话的真正含义。在本句话中,像鸟指的是像鸟的饭量,也就是“他吃的很少”。与此句作对照理解的是He eats like a horse.意为“他吃的很多”。

2.Come on!Don't be chicken.

“加油,不要像只鸡一样”。鸡这一动物在我个人心目中的形象是脆弱的,所以中国有“手无缚鸡之力”来形容人软弱的说法。但在英语中鸡似乎是羞怯的,所以这句话的真正含义是“加油,不要害羞!”

3.Her husband is a real bear.

“她的丈夫真像一头熊”。只要不受《熊出没》中那俩憨态可掬的胖熊的影响,大家几乎都能想象熊那可怕的样子,所以本句意为“他丈夫脾气很坏”。

4.black sheep

一想到羊,许多人脑海中总能浮现出它们那洁白的100%纯羊毛衬衫(不排除有些人比较偏爱黑山羊),所以“黑羊”在英语中的意思就是“败家子、害群之马、无用之辈”。

5.go to the dogs

即使狗的忠诚与友好深受各国人士赞誉,但无论在汉语还是英语中狗总是贬义的。本句即为“江河日下”。

6.wake a sleeping dog

上句说到狗是贬义的,当然狗也是凶猛的,当一只狗在睡觉时,你偏偏要把它唤醒,毫无疑问你在“惹是生非”。

let sleeping dog lie

与上句相反,让一只睡着的狗躺在那,意思当然就是“莫惹是非 ”。

7.rain cats and dogs

真不知道英国人和老美都是什么思想,居然把“倾盆大雨”说成“下猫下狗”,真不知道他们会不会把洪涝灾害说成“下大象”!

8.cannot say boo to a goose

要解决这一句,就要先说一下boo的意思,boo意为“嘘声,喝倒彩”,总之是一种很不礼貌的行为。但即使是这样,也不能不敢对一只鹅喝倒彩吧,所以这句“不能对鹅喝倒彩”就用来形容那些“胆小如鼠”的人。

9.dog in the manger

“狗在马厩里”。没错,你没有猜错,这句话的意思当然不是“张冠李戴”,而是“占着茅坑不拉屎”。

10.smell a rat

“闻一只小老鼠”。正常情况下谁会去闻一只老鼠,而且还是一只小老鼠,肯定是“发现了什么可疑之处”。

11.other fish to fry

“其他鱼拿去油炸”,那剩下的这些鱼自然是“另有要事”了,所以该句可以简单翻译为“另有要事”。

托福口语常见短语背景知识:老大哥&四面楚歌

地道的英文口语中常见一些有背景含义的词汇,如果不了解这些词汇的来源和背景知识,就不能透彻的理解作者表达的含义,所以托福口语中一些常见短语的背景知识非常重要,下面收集了有关“老大哥 & 四面楚歌”托福口语资料,常见短语的背景知识分析,希望对大家托福口语学习有帮助。

老大哥 Big Brother

老大哥.指 “老大/监视者”,喻国家的监控机构,国家的独裁者,以及某一地区、组织中起决定作用的人或因素。

源自英国文学作品。英国88家乔治·奥维尔(George Orwell,1903-1950)在他的作品《1984》中,塑造了一个.的独裁者Big Brother(老大哥)。他控制着一个极权国家,并将人民置于他的高压管制之下。他甚至通过电视接受器,对每一个家庭进行严密的监视。因此 “老大哥”又有了“监视”的意思。目前在网络届流行一种英文软件Big Brother,可以周期.监视网络状况。此语在首字母小写的情况下,通常指兄长或担任兄长和老大哥角色的人。所以在使用中应该区别这两种不同的表达方式。

四面楚歌 between Scylla and Charybdis

在西拉和克里布迪斯之间。喻腹背受敌或左右为难,与汉语 “四面楚歌”或“进退维谷”相似。

出自希腊神化。西拉和克里布迪斯是荷马(Homer,约公元前8-公元前7世纪)史诗《奥德塞》(Odyssey)中描写的两个海怪,分别盘踞在墨西拿海峡两边的巨岩上。西拉原是一个美丽的仙女,后被情敌海洋女神用魔法变成了一个面目狰狞的妖怪,有六头六颈十二足。她隐身洞中,六个头伸出洞外时狂吠不止,并不时地猎取海中动物。船舶穿过海峡时,西拉便伸出头去,每个嘴里都要吞吃一个水手。人们根据这个神化,便将海峡那个大岩礁命名为西拉。在海峡的另一边,靠近西西里岛的一块巨石上,长着一棵高耸入云的无花果树,树下居住着另一个凶恶可怕的海怪克里布迪斯。他一日之间,三次吞吐海水。凡经过此处的动物和船只,都有被它吞没的危险。荷马史诗的主人公奥德修斯在西拉和克里布迪斯之间航行时,他的船和水手都被吞没,只剩下他孤身一人爬上了克里布迪斯的无花果树,才幸免于难。后来,据说海怪克里布迪斯偷了大力神赫尔克里斯的牛,遭到雷击后编程了海上大漩涡。往来于墨西拿海峡的船只,一边要绕过西拉岩礁,一边要避开克里布迪斯漩涡,真是进退维谷,左右为难。在英语里,相似的成语还有between the devil and the deep sea(在妖魔和深海之间),指身陷绝境或处于水深火热之中。
