托福口语第一题人物类模板

人物类话题是新托福口语考试中的常客，但是这在同时更加表明了它的重要性。大家在准备新托福口语考试的时候一定要注意这种话题，争取根据高频真题的特点有针对性的准备。

1. What charactereristics do you think a good teacher should have? 【06. 3.3; 07. 11.3考题】

Sample answer：

In my view, a good teacher should have different characteristics.

First, a good teacher should be faithful and dedicated to the job. If a teacher is faithful to the job, then s/he never cheats and will be impartial【偏向】 and students will respect such a teacher. If a teacher is dedicated towards his/her work, then s/he will teach with his/her heart.

Another most important characteristic of a good teacher is patience.

Teachers should never lose their patience in class when students ask questions repeatedly. A teacher should explain each and every aspect of the topic in the easiest way.

Most of all, a good teacher should update his/her knowledge ‘cause further learning can make a good teacher re-discover the beauty of the teaching profession.

2. What are important characteristics you look for in friends?【06. 5.12; 06. 6.24; 07.1.27考题】

Sample answer：

I think what makes a good friend is someone who is honest, supportive, and has a good sense of humor. I just look for someone who''''''''s honest to me no matter what. He should not tell stories behind my back; he should tell me my short-comings at my mouth, but never praises me in front of me.

It is a well known saying that "A FRIEND IN NEED IS A FRIEND INDEED." Therefore, a friend should stand by you in the hour of any sort of need. I just think that a good friend won''''''''t leave me if I''''''''m in trouble. They can be my friends in sunshine and in shade, care for me even when the times are bad and even more when the times are great.

Also, I''''''''d love to spend more time with someone who can make me laugh and is fun to be around.

3. Describe a person that influenced you most.【06. 5.26; 06. 3. 17;06.10.22考题;与06.5.26类似】

Sample answer：

The person that really influenced me most was Ms. Xing---my college teacher who taught us English literature.

Her class was quite different from the other teachers. In her class we were not expected to sit there and listen. We had to get more involved in the class activities, like discussions, comments or debates sometimes. Our creativity and imagination were developed enormously through the active participation.

On the other hand, she let us think more about life by sharing her experiences and more importantly, she taught me how to live on my own. So that''''''''s why I was greatly influenced. Not only did she give me knowledge, but also she gave me courage and confidence as well.

托福独立口语话题思路

托福独立口语思路主要是什么方向呢?

托福独立口语思路一：

因为我们的思想水平和托福口语表达水平存在很大差距，语音语调先放一边不论，你的托福口语表达水平如果只有美国人小学生水平，但是你的思想却是高中以上水平，想用一个小学生的语言表达出一个高中生或大学生的观点，显然是比较impossible

托福独立口语思路二：

因为我们太习惯用中文思维，这就造成了我们答题时反应时间过长，因为我们需要先用中文把思路理出来，再进行中文到英文的翻译，而且是在用一个小学生的口语来翻译成年人的思想。Furthermore这样翻译出来的英语往往都非常具有中国特色，错误连篇，拿高分基本没戏。这样，我们在答第一二题这种自主发挥题时遇到的就不止是一重阻碍了。

都说我们没有语言环境，但是大家一定要学会给自己制造语言环境。看美剧、听英文广播、看英文小说、看英语新闻，这都是一个输入过程，仅仅只是在打懂英语的基础。如果是一个整体的的语言环境，怎么能只有听和读呢?输入和输出是一套配套动作，听、读和想、说要变成一系列连贯动作，这里介绍下本搜狐号的另外一篇10天攻克托福听力。所以我们在平常学习生活中，要保持一种双语的思维模式。比如：你在跟朋友hang out时，你朋友跟你抱怨说尾号限行的措施不好，不方便人们生活和出行，爸妈不能开车的时候，一家人都要去挤公交挤地铁。但是你认为尾号限行号好，因为现在本来空气污染都已经这么严重了，再不限行，肯定会更糟。而且北京的交通问题这么严峻，再不限制已有车辆，早晚高峰的时候路上根本走不动。

这么一个小交谈，如果你在脑中运行着双语思维的模式，遇到不会的就去查，理清用英文思维时遇到的障碍，比如说尾号限行叫 traffic restriction based on the last digit of license plate numbers, 这会帮助你解决一系列的托福口语一二题。看几道近几年的真题，这是2014年1月25日北美考过的一道题What can we do to reduce air pollution? Give examples and details in you answer.尾号限行政策可以无障碍使用吧?再看2012年7月22日大陆的一道题：Describe a change in your country. It could be a social, economical or political change. Explain how this change influenced people in your country. 尾号限行政策也可以使用吧?所有跟环保还有国家政策措施、改变相关的题都可以派上用场吧!一次小小的双语思维作用之处可是很大的。

托福独立口语思路避免空洞的单词和词组

1. 一些空洞的单词或词组根本不能为句子带来任何相关的或重要的信息，完全可以被删掉。比如下面的句子：

When all things are considered, young adults of today live more satisfying lives than those of their parents, in my opinion.

这句话当中的“when all things are considered”和“in my opinion“都显得多余。完全可以去掉。改为：

Young adults of today live more satisfying lives than their parents.

2. 有些空洞和繁琐的表达方式可以进行替换，例如：

Due to the fact that our grandparents were under an obligation to help their parents, they did not have the options that young people have at this point in time.

“due to the fact that”就是一个很典型的繁琐的表达方式的例子，可以替换，简化为下面的表达方式：

Because our grandparents were obligated to help their parents, they did not have the options that young people have now.

建议二托福独立口语思路避免重复

1. 尽量避免重复使用同样的词汇。或者有的时候虽然词汇没有重复，但意思却有重复。这时候可以做一些简化的工作。例如下面这个例子：:

The farm my grandfather grew up on was large in size.

large 对一个farm来说就是size方面的large，所以in size可以去掉，改为：

The farm my grandfather grew up on was large.
