樹立自己托??谡Z表達的自信心
對于正在備考托福的學生來說應該都能體會的到,在托??荚囍新犝f讀寫有著同樣的分值。但是,在口語的備考中卻要花更多的時間來備考。那么,在口語的備考中我們怎樣才能樹立自己的信心呢?怎樣才能讓自己順利闖過這一關呢?下面是小編為您收集整理的樹立自己托??谡Z表達的自信心,供大家參考!
樹立自己托??谡Z表達的自信心
語言表達的外包裝
對于口語的表達中,曾經(jīng)多次提到過口語“外包裝”的問題。也就是說考生對于發(fā)音開始有了足夠的重視,很多人都專門地練習或系統(tǒng)地學習過發(fā)音。但是,其中還是存在一些誤區(qū)的。在托??谡Z的考察中,評判者是通過聽錄音來做分數(shù)評估的,所以,“說得快”未必是件好事,“說得清楚”才是重點。表達時有清楚斷句、重音等等,才能有效傳達信息的關鍵。
比如:The Great Wall/was the greatest/man-made military defense structure/in ancient China。(“/”作為斷句的標志,用“〉”表明重音)
在嘗試了這樣的朗讀之后,大家就會發(fā)現(xiàn),不但語言更加悅耳,而且通過斷音和重音的效果,內容也是更加容易理解。
語言表達的邏輯性
對于托??谡Z表達內容也是和托福寫作一樣,需要有很好的邏輯性。換位思考一下,你就會理解到,如果你是考官,對于一個思維混亂的口語表達,即便是讀音再好你會給予高分么?每個考官在悅耳的聲音背后更想吸納入耳的是有組織、有意義的詞句。
托??谡Z話題材料——學生兼職
在托福備考的過程中,要想獲得新托??谡Z高分,練習必不可少。我們就開始模仿托??荚?,做一些模擬練習吧。下面小編就為大家準備了一系列的托??谡Z話題材料,希望能為大家的托福備考帶來幫助。
Is It Good for Students to Have Part-time Jobs?

School Part-timers
More and more high school students in Beijing are turning their minds to ways of making money.
They are capitalizing on opportunities such as one group of students who went to the front gate of the Children’s Centre in the East District of Beijing when a film studio was there conducting auditions(1).
The group sold the young hopefuls(2) application forms at five fen a piece after getting the forms from the center for free.
Young entrepreneurs are also capitalizing on high demand commodities not always available away from the big shopping centres(3). Birthday or greeting cards are an example. One department store estimated that 80 per cent of its sales of cards are to students for resale.
Xia Li, a junior high school student at Fengtai District in the southwest region of the capital, spent 40 yuan buying cards from downtown shops just before the last Spring Festival.
She sold them at her school and schools nearby at prices 15 to 20 per cent higher than what she had paid. In a month, she earned 100 yuan, representing a 250 per cent return on her initial investment.
A senior high school student who had been selling cards has now become an amateur wholesale dealer(4). His wholesale price is 8 per cent higher than his purchasing price and 10 per cent lower than the retail price(5). Within two months, the had earned several hundred yuan in profits.
Many students have merged their activities to avoid price wars.(6) For example, in an area with few State-owned shops and far from the city center, student union heads from the schools there have reached an agreement on card prices. The agreement says prices may be higher than at the downtown shops but lower than at the peddlers’ stalls.
Card-selling is just a beginning. Some students turn their eyes to other more profitable ventures.
Take one senior high school sophomore who has developed a flourishing business selling photos of famous people. He even has his own name card that reads: The High School Student Corporation Ltd of Exploitation of New Technology(7).
The student carries a portfolio(8) of the photos around with him in an album to show his young customers. He offers a wide variety of photos, from American movie star Sylvester Stallone in Rambo pose to Taiwan’s famous singer Qi Qin(9).
"These all depend on my high quality camera," he boasts and explains how he clopped the pictures from magazines, photographed them and then developed the prints into various sizes. He has sold hundreds. Another student is mow an amateur salesman for a company and earns a three per cent commission(10) on each sale.
When he had earned 300 yuan through his own efforts, he said, "I feel that I have really become an adult."
