托福独立口语学习方法

托福口语考试一共有6个题目，题目类型大致为两类：独立口语和综合口语。这两种题目各自有难点：独立口语虽然没有听力，但将自己的观点表达完整充实并不容易;综合口语虽然不用思考如何自圆其说，但却要能够听懂和归纳听力材料中的要点信息并复述出来。

托福口语的难点进行分析后，接下来我们要讨论一下，平时练习中如何练好托福口语。托福口语的练习应该首先从基础上做提升，把握英语答题时的节奏感，让自己的英语表达听起来很地道，然后要针对考试来练习，做对应的习题，适应考试的答题节奏和时间。

1. 如何练就地道口语表达

想要练就地道的表达，不仅要练好发音，还要练习英语表达的逻辑思维。我们生活学习的环境中讲英语的人很少，建议大家多听英语广播，多看英语电影，模仿播音主持和电影演员的发音和表达，让自己的口语听起来更地道，不会很生硬。模仿发音能够帮我们矫正发音，同时建议大家背一些经典台词和经典演讲，学习英文表达习惯。

2. 如何针对托福考试练口语

托福口语考试分为独立口语和综合口语。练好基本功以后还要做针对托福口语考试的练习。首先要把握好的是托福口语考试的答题时间，独立口语答题时间为45秒，建议大家准备一些各个类型独立口语试题的答题素材，避免临考试时不知道说什么。综合口语的答题时间为60秒，需要大家在平时练习中多做复述练习，能够速记下听力材料中的信息并进行复述。综合口语备考中可以准备一下自己的答题模板，帮助自己快速地组织答案。

3. 避免低级错误

大家在口语表达中一定要注意表达的准确性，注意时态、单复数和人称等等。一些低级错误，我们听起来可能觉得不是什么大问题，但是对于native speaker来说却是非常明显的错误。举个简单的例子：如果考生把“he does”说成了“he do”，“he has”说成“he have”，整句话听起来都会非常怪异。大家在平时练习一定要注意这些错误，口语练习时建议大家将自己的答案录下来，及时听录音纠正表达错误。

新托福口语难点解析

托福口语考试中不仅需要大家口语表达流利，还需要准备一些答题的素材，避免答案空洞无物。接下来，我们来具体分析一下新托福口语的难点。

1. 思考时间短，答题时间长

托福独立口语的思考时间仅有15秒，综合口语思考时间仅30秒。这么短的时间内组织出完整的答案非常困难。托福独立口语的答题时间为45秒，综合口语的答题时间为60秒，看似时间不长，但其实要45秒钟或60秒钟不停顿不磕巴地答完题并非易事。我们可以试着用中文回答托福考试中的问题，你会发现，即便是用中文，也会偶会停顿不连贯。所以不要小看45秒的答题时间，平时要做大量练习才能答好题目

2. 听力和速记能力

托福口语考试中综合口语考题需要大家听懂听力材料并且能够记下要点。托福口语试题中不仅考察大家的口语表达能力，还要考察大家的英语听力能力和速记能力。这两点也是托福口语中的难点，大家只要把托福听力练好，做口语速记应该问题不大，归纳和复述能力则需要平时多加练习。另外，速记的时候一定要记下听力中的细节确保复述时不遗漏。
