托福口语旅游话题

大家平时可能都很喜欢旅行什么的，那么在托福口语当中如果你遇到了有关旅行的话题你应该如何应对呢?

托福口语旅游话题

说到韩国旅行可能大家有很多可以说的，比如说首尔塔N-Seoul tower，在那里面有着浪漫的爱情锁桥;去一去每个地方的大学，于是来到了为韩国政商界输入人才众多，也是亲信们事件爆发地的梨花女子大学-Ewha Womans University ;虽然韩国可吃的东西不是很多，但是每个地方还是要吃些传统的美食，比如说韩国泡菜【Kim chi】，大酱汤【Doenjang soup】 ，石锅拌饭【Bibimbap】，啤酒和炸鸡【beer and fried chicken】，紫菜包饭【Korean sushi】。

说到这儿似乎也就没有什么了，哎，其实一方面我经常想虽然日韩是发达国家，国民素质高些，吃得也精致些，但是另外一方面想它们的领土面积太小了，农业也不够发达，跟地大物博，饮食文化博大精深的华夏大地真是没法儿比。每当想到这里都有一种民族自豪感油然而生，而且伴随着我们的国家越来越好，真是越来越为自己的祖国自豪。

游完了韩国之后，我们还是来看两个题目吧。

task1

Describe the advantages of living abroad. Please include specific reasons and examples in your response.

task2

Some people prefer to live in different places throughout their lives. Others prefer to stay and live in one place. Which do you prefer and why? Please include reasons and details in your response.

从我们上期的经络图，还有我们上期的展开思路讲解，到我们现在的积累，面对这样的题目，是不是有思路了呢?大家先自己说说看。

Sample response1：

To some extent living abroad may have some advantages, the most important thing is that people may gain the chance to experience new things, such as new sceneries, new climate, new people or friends. 【列举的思路】

As for me, the most exciting one is that I can taste new delicious foods. I am a food lover and I wanna taste the foods from all over the world. If living in our neighbor Korea for some years, I may taste the authentic bibimbap, Doenjang soup, the authentic Korean sushi, Kim chi and so on. 【列举的思路】All these may well satisfy my appetite and I may have the better knowledge about the eating culture in Korea. Thank you.

Sample response2：

Honestly speaking, I prefer to live in different places throughout my life.

Firstly, I have the chance to taste various foods. If I stay in Korea for some years, I may taste the authentic bibimbap, Doenjang soup【列举的思路】; if I stay in Thailand for some years, the local food, you know, the curry crab or the curry chicken【列举的思路】 will satisfy my appetite. The different foods in different countries make me feel fabulous.

And also, this will broaden my horizon. For example, if I stay in my own country for my whole life, I may appreciate limited things. If I stay【对比对照的思路】 in other countries, like the America for some years, I may admire the view of Niagara Falls and learn their culture. Then my life will be more diverse.

托福口语常考话题:旅行的好处

在托福考试中，旅行类话题非常常见。但是，想拿高分，也绝非易事。因为大家都可以说出一些自己的旅行经历。想拿高分的童鞋，必须得用心准备，才更有把握。

那么，在练习时，有的宝宝会觉得词汇量不足。只有在看到这个单词时，才会恍然大悟。哎呀，原来是酱紫啊。然后，就木有然后了。而在考试时，依然是大脑空白。

就大家的这个问题，在本期Talk Now中经列出了很多旅行类的词汇。这些词汇在日常的聊天中也会用到。还没去看的宝宝，真为你捉急。

思路

关于这类话题，到底怎么答呢?从哪里找思路呢?

在日常生活和学习中，我们接触到的旅行类话题并不多。那么，问题来了。我们应该怎样顺利地展开这类话题呢?

在这种情况下，我们就应该结合自身的经历来展开话题。这样话题不但容易展开，而且也可以加入更多的细节，比如，一次和家人的旅行使家庭更加和睦了;比如，一次和朋友的旅行使友情得到了促进。比如，一次独自的旅行，使自己更好的面对生活。同时，在内容方面也可以更加自由地发挥了。

有了这样的思路，我们来看看一篇示范的回答是如何做到这一点的。

话题：Do you like to travel alone or with your family members? Explain with specific reasons and details.

托福口语范文文本

I like to travel alone. Because I’m a pretty independent person. Although I don’t mind doing things with friends or family, I don’t like to be tied to someone else’s schedule all the time. If I travelled with my parents, for example, I would be dragged out of bed at 6 o’clock in the morning and spend most of the day walking, sleepy and exhausted. What’s more, the more people you travel with, the more tastes and interests you have to bear with. Like if I travelled with my sister, I would be wandering in jewelry stores or souvenir shops wherever I travel, which gets me bored. So I would rather travel alone, even if it means a lonely or a more costly trip.

新托福独立口语话题之旅游

关于旅游，托福口语向来考的内容多变，从旅游的方式、地点，到旅游的经历，再到对旅游的感受，都是考生们应该熟知掌握的内容。就旅游方式而言，考生们回答问题时选择最多的可能是backpack travel 背包旅行/自助旅行，或者driving tour 自驾游，除此之外，solo/independent travel 自助旅游，package tour 随团旅行也是比较受欢迎的。其他的，比如guided tour 有导游带领的旅游，cycling tour 骑自行车旅游，coach/greyhound travel 巴士旅游，charter tour 租车/船旅游，cruise 乘船巡游也是很多同学想要选择的，可能有时碍于不会表达就因此放弃转而选择好描述的内容去说。在回答独立口语问题时，容易描述的内容固然好，因为这至少保证你的流畅度是OK的，但趋于平淡枯燥的答案很难让考官感兴趣，那就不如把本来想说的说出来，然后再去下功夫练你的流畅度。所以，大家想要描述租车旅游是自己最爱的旅游方式，那就从今天开始记住它叫做charter tour吧。

除了旅游方式，旅游的种类也很繁多，比如bush walking 丛林徒步旅游，adventure tour 探险旅游，extreme travel 极限旅游，exploring travel 探索旅游，leisure travel 休闲观光，exotic travel 异域旅游，camping 露营， eco-tourism 生态旅游，outbound tourism/outbound travel出境游，excursio/outing 短途旅游，farm tour 农家乐旅游等。

关于旅游景点，大家不要拘泥于tourism attraction【旅游胜地】这一种表达方式，考生应尽量把景点归类的细致一些，比如historical relics 历史遗迹，resort度假地，natural splendour/attraction自然景观，ancient monument 古迹，traditional architecture 传统建筑，summer resort 避暑胜地，national park 国家公园，emperor’s mausoleum/tomb陵墓，famous Buddhist mountain 佛教名山，hot travel spot 黄金景点。

关于地点名称，这里就不多补充了，大家在回答问题时要注意把旅游地点的具体名称说出来，才能体现真实性，然后再详细介绍这个景点的种类等。接下来，非常重要的一节是对这个景点和自身的感受加以形容，而这也是考察考生能力和水平的真正一节。因为很多考生局限于interesting, beautiful, unforgettable, had a memorable moment等通俗的表达，很难抓住考官的胃口，也很难让人感同身受。所以下面补充的内容考生要牢记于心。首先描述景点给人的第一印象，可以说spectacular壮观的，breath-taking惊人的，enchanting/charming/alluring/fascinating迷人的，soothing令人放松的，delightful 令人愉悦的，如果是给人不好的感受，也不要只会说it’s dirty, 可以说messy肮脏凌乱的，fetid 恶臭的，unpleasant 令人不愉快的，disgusting令人厌恶的，unsightly不雅观的，等等。

营养’，有意义。

首先，关于独自旅行，考生们可以说：

Solo travel is the quickest and easiest way to grow your independence. 独自旅行是能培养独立性最快最简单的方法。

Being alone on the road focuses your energies and attention. It intensifies the travel experience. 独自旅行能使你保持体力和注意力，并能加强你旅行的感受。

Travelling alone is ideal for unobtrusively observing. Whether in a forest or a crowd, the single traveller can watch, listen, and learn with a minimum of disruption. 独自旅行能使你观察到不易察觉的东西。不论是在森林里还是人群中，独自旅行者都能不被打扰的用心去看，去听，去学去感受。

关于自由行：

Itineraries can be planned, and rooms， transport and meals can be picked without hesitation or haggles. This freedom can energize you. 你可以自己定行程，并且不用为了订房间、交通和饭菜而犹豫和争吵。

You can indulge yourself fully; sleep as much or as little as you like; rest when you want; pour it on when you’re feeling ambitious. 你可以尽情享受尽情放纵自己，想睡多少觉睡多少，累了就休息，兴奋了就赶紧去疯狂。

关于跟团旅行：

Package tour can be more budget. Tour operators make use of bulk bookings from hotels, and are able to get good deals for food, sight seeing tours, transportation and any other services. 跟团旅行更经济实惠一些，因为旅行社利用团购可以拿到很好的折扣在酒店、食物、观光和交通等项目上。

If you choose to travel during the peak season, there are little chances of securing accommodation and travel tickets. Opting for a holiday package would make it easier to travel in such a situation. 如果是旺季旅行，个人预定的住宿和机票很难被确保。而选择跟团就会好很多。

You can enjoy a tension free holiday: Choosing a tour operator to do most of the planning for the holiday saves you time and hassle. 你可以享受一个无压力的假期，因为有旅行社帮你做一大堆事而这给你省了时间和麻烦。

关于旅行的意义：

Travelling teaches me to live an adventure. When I look back, there might be ups and downs, prides and regrets. If I travelled as I would, at least these moments: bicycled across the Golden Gate Bridge, appeared on Italian TV, hiked a Mayan ruin, and learned Spanish in three months wouldn't be on my list of regrets.

旅行让生活变得冒险刺激。当我将来回顾人生，可能会看到起起伏伏，骄傲和遗憾。但是当我想要去旅行并且真正做到了时候，至少这些画面，比如骑自行车穿越金门大桥，出现在意大利电视上，徒步走在玛雅废墟上，三个月内学会西班牙语等等，都不会出现在我的遗憾的名单上。

Travelling helps you begin to know the world. If you go to Southeast Asia, you may encounter the slave trade. If Eastern Europe, you may see the effects of genocide and religious persecution. If Haiti, you’ll witness the ugly side of Western paternalism. And you will then encounter compassion. You will have a new-found respect for the pain and suffering that over half of the world takes for granted on a daily basis. And you will cherish your life.

旅行让你开始了解这个世界。如果你去东南亚，你可能会遇到奴隶交易;去东欧，你会看到种族灭绝和宗教迫害;而在海地，你会亲眼目睹到西方家长作风的丑陋面。然后你会开始懂得同情和怜悯。你会对这世界上一半以上的人们每天所遭受的习以为常的痛苦和磨难产生深切的同情。然后你终于开始珍惜你的生活。
