托?？谡Z(yǔ)考試如何牢記關(guān)鍵詞

一般情況下，托福獨(dú)立口語(yǔ)一類(lèi)問(wèn)題是自由回答間題(Free-choice Response)，如：If you could have any job in the world, what would it be? Use details to support your. response;另一類(lèi)是選擇類(lèi)問(wèn)題(Paired-choice Response)，如：Do you like to try new kinds of food or eat the same kind of food all the time? Use details and examples to support your response,準(zhǔn)備時(shí)間為15秒，回答問(wèn)題時(shí)間為45秒。

這部分問(wèn)題會(huì)被朗讀出來(lái)，且同時(shí)出現(xiàn)在屏幕上?？忌梢圆挥美頃?huì)電腦的朗讀，迅速閱讀完問(wèn)題。這樣可以爭(zhēng)取大概5秒，那么在這大約20秒內(nèi)，考生可在草稿紙上迅速記下自己所要表達(dá)的關(guān)鍵信息。這里記筆記的方法為“TST表格”。TST ( Topic-Supporting ideas--Transitions)意思是考生須在草稿紙上用一到兩個(gè)詞寫(xiě)下欲表達(dá)的Topic(主題)，Supporting ideas(分論點(diǎn))和Transitions(信號(hào)詞)。下面試舉一例：

Question:　Where would you want to be professionally in ten years? Use details to support your response.

考生應(yīng)迅速在紙上寫(xiě)下“own bus...”、“master”、“work com...”、“start”等信息見(jiàn)以下TST( Topic—Supporting ideas—Transitions )表格。

Topic statement:

own bus... (I would like to own my own business) Supporting ideas:

( How I will work toward owning my business)

master (Will get master's in business )

work com... (Will work in company while planning my business)

start (Will start my own business when I am ready)

Transitions: 10 next because 3 within 10 y (可用y代替 years)

Sample Answer

In ten years I would like to win an import business of my own. Next year, I will be starting a master's program in business with a specialization in entrepreneurship. I will be getting this degree because I hope to start my own business and make it successful some day. After I finish my master's degree three years from now, I will most likely take a position in another company for a few years to make some money and to spend some time planning my own business. Within ten years, I hope to own my own company and be on the way to making it a success.

再舉一例：

Question:　Sometimes students have to write papers. Sometimes they have to give oral presentations. Which activity do you think is better for students, and why? Include details and examples in your explanation.

考生應(yīng)迅速在紙上寫(xiě)下“pap”、“strong read write exams”、“more time think deeply”等信息。見(jiàn)以下TST( Topic—Supporting ideas—Transitions )表格：:

Topic: pap (writing papers is better for students) Supporting ideas: (Why writing papers is better)

* strong read write exams (need strong writing skills for reading and writing and prepare for exams)

* more time think deeply(show understanding for more time to explain and think deeply)

Transitions: firstly because, so also

Sample Answer

I think writing papers is better for students. Firstly we need to develop strong writing skills. We go to school mainly to learn reading and writing, so we need a lot of practice. Examinations require a lot of writing, so writing papers is good reparation. Also, I think writing is a better way to show that I understand. When I write a paper, I can think deeply because I have more time to explain my ideas.
