【托福培訓-口語】地點類話題常用句型及詞匯
托福口語評分標準中出了natural、spontaneous、improvised等類似的字眼,譯為自然即興的,也就是說rater評分者更希望看到 考生即興的發(fā)揮而不是死板機械的背誦;但是如果考生平時不積累一些相關語料庫想必也不會達到信手拈來的地步,為此筆者給大家?guī)硪幌盗型懈*毩⒖谡Z部分中 的常見話題語料庫,希望大家在背誦的基礎上把題目回答的更自然。
本文給考生帶來的是地點語料庫。常見題目如你最想去的地方,你所在城 市的景點,想跟朋友一起去的地方;當然也會有這樣的題目:你是喜歡在大城市讀大學還是喜歡在小鎮(zhèn)上讀大學。乍一看這個題跟地點沒有關系,如果我稍加變通就 可以用很多跟大城市相關的語料,如果選擇在大城市上學的話,生活更方便如可以去fancy restaurant, bars, shopping malls, coffee shops, bookstores等等而在這些地方我們都可以接觸很多人,繼而可以用如下的語料:meet new people, make new friends,broaden your horizon, get to know local cultures and customs, enrich your experience等等。試看以下關于地點的真題:
Describe a place that you like best in your city. Please state why you like it with specific examples and details.
When you are together with your friends, which place would you like to go?
Explain why.
Describe a public area that you visit frequently. Please state why you visit it
frequently and include specific examples and details in your explanation.
Some students prefer to choose universities located in big cities. Others would like
to study in universities located in small towns. Please state your opinion and explain
why.
When travelling, some people prefer to reach the destination directly. Some
others prefer to stop and look around the scenery along the way. What kind of way of
travelling do you think is better and why?
如果仔細分析以上題目的話不難發(fā)現都跟地點息息相關,當然每道題目也有細微的差別,這就需要考生認真分析,更有針對性的利用語料庫回答以免跑題。
海灘是眾多考生喜歡用的地方,但是在筆者授課的過程中發(fā)現學生不怎么會用細節(jié)更加生動形象的回答題目。接下來結合上課使用效果筆者總結一下描述一個海灘城市和大都會類城市可以用到的語料:

托??谡Z的六大高分技巧詳解
一、詞匯
在做托??谡Z練習中,很多同學都有遇到無話可說,或者無法表達自己想說內容的窘境,究其原因還是在于詞匯量不夠,表達不出來,其實托福口語需要的詞匯量并不是很大,核心詞匯也就是2000左右,也就是說托福詞匯其實不講究量,同學們只需要考前把TPO當中口語部分全部刷一遍將生詞掌握足已。雖然托??谡Z詞匯不講究難度,但是還是有很多同學不能熟練自如地表達口語內容,原因是同學們可能無法熟練掌握和運用一些小的轉折次,短小詞組和動詞的慣用使用方法,讓整個口語聽起來不夠自然和精彩,比如在描繪的過程中加一些口語化詞語you know, like 等,可以大大地增加口語感情色彩。其次是在詞匯使用中恰當地運用轉述技巧,也能使你的口語詞匯表達大大加分。如:當表達“我愛吃水果”這個概念的時候,大部分的學生會說“I like to eat fruits?!比绻阌谩皐ell, I’m crazy about you know like fruits,especially papaya”是不是會讓人有種眼前一亮的感覺?會讓人感覺這樣的口語就是住在你腦子里的,而不是生搬硬套的。
二:多用簡單句,適當使用長句
美國人說話的特點是流暢順滑,這就是托福口語考試中fluency作為一個重要的評分標準之一的原因。一般來說,我們不用太focus在一些細小的語法錯誤上,重在明志達意,所以托福的口語考試更加的人性化,在考試過程中注意說話的節(jié)奏,多用簡單句,這樣表達清晰易懂而且語法會較為準確,但為了句子的節(jié)奏性會適當加入長句,如which 引導的定語從句,原因狀語從句和轉折句等會讓整個表達更加精彩。當然,如果同學平時能夠多多積累,將一些經典的句子爛熟于心,在適當的時候用出來,效果自然更好。
三、答題結構完整
托福考試準備時間短,內容又需要有拓展,因此在答題之前列出正確提綱,明確答題目標,按照答題步驟走是非常行之有效的方法。
1. 認真審題,確認答案,直接回答;
2. 圍繞核心部分對重要內容作出解釋分析并且舉例;
3. 想好一些應對措施和外延答案。這樣,在時間不夠的情況下,可以機動使用,既不會影響答案的完整性,有能夠應付時間的問題,但應該注意的是最后應該重新點題,這樣才能更加重點突出,條例清晰。
四、內容翔實,思維發(fā)散靈活
這一部分是重點得分部分,需要一定的時間來講解,但究其根本,一定要注意經典5要素,即who, what, why , where,how,在task3,4,5,6當中只要有較強的語言邏輯性,把搜集來的資料按照邏輯順序,條例清晰的表達出來,一般都能拿到還不錯的分數。
五、多多練兵
前面的幾步理論了解了,還不一定能夠嫻熟使用出來,最好的方式是通過練習實踐,這一部分是考試的真理,相信大家都知道,考前建議學生要多多做真題和模擬題,讓自己一直保持口熱的狀態(tài),在大量的實踐中去掌握考試規(guī)律,找到最適合自己的答題方法。
六、多做對比,找到差距
有的時候同學們自己覺得自己講的還不錯,卻沒有得到滿意的分數,原因是你的口語沒能給老師留下local,native的印象,所有評分的老師都是美國人,如果能熟練掌握美音在考試當中是會有便宜可占的。想要達到這樣的效果,最好的辦法就是多多模仿,精聽和跟讀。大家可以多多把自己的語音錄音下來,多聽找差別,將自己的聲音和原聲對比,反復在糾正和模仿單詞發(fā)音,語音和語調,多多留意身邊的好聲音。
