托福口语Task5 技巧

对于托福口语题的第5道题型Task5，很多考生在初次接触这道题型的情况下纷纷表示信息量过大，很难在规定的时间内获取并提炼有效的“考点信息”，并且在答题时感觉各种信息交织在一起、千头万绪，无法在60秒的答题时间内梳理出真正有效的要点信息。

托福口语task5答题技巧归纳

先解析一下第五题答案结构，我建议大家用二分法答题，一分钟分为两个30秒，前一个30秒包括3句话陈述人物遇到的问题，2句话分别列出两个解决方案;后一个30秒分析自己的选择原因，主要去分析自己没选择的观点存在什么缺陷，再一两句话稍微带一下自己选项的好处。

这题和第三题一样注意一般现在时的统一性，所以再次提醒大家动词的形态，第五题前半部分陈述很死板，建议大家听听力前就在草稿纸上把笔记框架话好，往里面填信息即可。后半部分个人发挥空间较大，三句话分析你不选的选项有什么问题，最后两句话总结自己的选项。

Task5题型分析

首先，来看一下Task5的题型。

【1】遇到的问题;

【2】解决方案—1;

【3】方案1的优势;

【4】方案1的劣势;

【5】解决方案—2;

【6】方案2的优势;

【7】方案2的劣势。

而Task5的题目要求是：首先表述一下其中一人所遇到的困境是什么?其次，表明在材料所给出的两个解决方案中考生自己倾向于选哪一个，并表明自己选择的原因是什么。

在分析完题型后，我们应该来研究一下怎样利用这些信息来进行高效的答题。毕竟每个考生只有60秒的回答时间，如果不加筛选的将所有信息全部奉上，一般情况下是无法完成作答的。

因此，我们必须利用一个有效的逻辑框架来帮助我们思考和回答题目。

我们的答题思路应该是这样的：

Step1: 先叙述谈话者遇到的问题;

Step2: 接着非常简洁地列举一下两个解决方案;

Step3: 做出选择，表明自己倾向的方案;

Step4: 用对角线原则陈述选择的原因。【即：列举自己的优势，以及另一方案的劣势。】

由此可见，我们一旦做出选择后，没必要将所有信息都陈述出来，而只要做到依据对角线原则，答出那些我们需要的原因就可以，即：自己的优点，别人的缺点。

实战分析

下面我们举例来说明：

例：TPO32—Task5

Listen to a conversation between two students.

“

man：I don’t know about you, but, I’m really looking forward to summer break.

woman： I can’t even think that far ahead. I’ve got so much to do before the end of the semester. I’ve been feeling pretty stressed out lately.

man：Why? What’s going on?

woman：Well, I just have so many assignments. I’ve got three major research papers to do and they all due, basically, at the same time, in two weeks.

man： Wow! Three? That is a lot. And research papers take a lot of time.

woman： Right, and between my job and classes, there just aren’t enough hours in the day to get them all done.

man： Well, is there anything you could cut from your schedule, I mean, you’re working part-time in an office in town, aren’t you? Why don’t you just reduce your hours there for a while, at least till you get the papers done.

woman： Well, I guess I could tell my boss I need to cut back on my hours for a couple of weeks, uh, but I don’t know, I haven’t been working there very long. I don’t want to make a bad impression by asking for time off already?

man：What else could you do?

woman： Well, another option is I could get an extension on one of the papers. I asked one of my professors about it, my History professor, and she said it would be OK if I handed the paper in a week late. So, I guess I could just concentrate on getting the other two papers done first.

man： Oh, that’s great.

woman：Yeah, only she said she’d have to take a few points off the grade for the paper since it would be late, you know, to be fair to the other students.

man： Oh, that’s a drag. So what are you gonna do?

woman：Uh, I don’t know yet.

”

在听的过程中，按照“七点法”进行考点分析：

【为了模拟考试状态，此处我们只写关键词】

【1】 Problem:

three major research papers / all due at the same time, in 2 weeks/------- part-time job/ no enough time for the three papers

【2】 Solution1:

Tell the boss/ cut back on her hours for a couple of weeks

优势：this is only a part-time job / could ask the boss

劣势：she’s not been working very long. / make a bad impression

【3】 Solution2:

Get an extension on one of the papers.

优势：she asked professor / she said it would be ok/ she could concentrate on the other two papers first.

劣势：the professor would have to take a few points off the grade for the paper.

有了上面的考点提炼和梳理，我们答题就会显得容易的多。

参考答案

现在，让我们来看一个版本的参考答案：【选solution1】

Sample answer:

The woman in the conversation has got a problem, which is, she has three major research papers that all due at the same time in two weeks.

Meanwhile, she has a part-time job in an office in town. So there is not enough time in the day for her to get all three papers done.

Here are two solutions.

The first one is to tell the boss to cut back on her hours for a couple of weeks.

The second one is to get an extension on one of the papers.

I prefer the first one.

Since this is only a part-time job, and she thinks that the boss would understand her situation and allow her to cut some hours. And then she would have enough time in the 2 weeks to concentrate on getting all the three papers done.

As for the second solution, although the professor has said yes, it is still not good because to be fair to the other students, a few points would be taken off the grade for the paper as it would be late. That’s not what she wants.

Based on the reasons above, I prefer the first solution.
