托福口语常见话题怎样开口拿高分
“开不了口”这件事,似乎是中国学生学习英语,最普遍又最难克服的软肋!在各种口语考试中,中国考生“栽”在这上头的,可不在少数!有没有这样一把钥匙,只要轻轻一扭,嘴巴就会像被打开了开关,可以巴拉巴拉……说起来了?

其实,口语话题的种类并不多,只要掌握方法,是完全可以清晰地表述自己的内容的。
今天,我们就根据常见的话题种类,一个一个来说……
1.Do you like...?
回答模式:
Yes/No+reason/experience/example
示例结构:
Yes, of course. I have a crush on...., simply because...Apart from that...
Yes, for sure. My favorite is..., I knew that when..., Additionally...
I guess no. Personally, I would say...is not my type, for the fact that...
是否喜欢,是part1的常见题型,主要考察学生对身边事物的描述能力。这个可以先做一个基本选择,再解释相关的原因。比如说study的常见话题,你喜欢你的专业吗?喜欢就直接回答是,再展开相关的原因,比如职业规划、个人兴趣等等。
2.Do you prefer...?
回答模式:
I prefer.../I like... more, +reason/experience(使用比较级)
示例结构:
I prefer...,since....what I mean is...; As for me, ... is more..., so generally, ...is a better choice for me.
是否偏爱,这个类型一定要和do you like 区分开。偏爱,也就是更喜欢,这里考察的是比较级。比如说,你喜欢在家看电影还是出去看电影?这里一定是我更喜欢+观影方式。后面展开具体原因,按照话题本身的特点来。如果去电影院,可以是喜欢大的屏幕,或者整体气氛;在家,自己比较舒服和放松,都是可用的展开方式。
3.Why..?
回答模式:
Reason
示例结构:
In my view, the causes of ...are complicated. Firstly,
I think a number of explanations are involved here.
That is due to the fact...
Simply because...
原因类,按照本身原因的个数选择开头的方式。如果打算详细展开一个原因,可以用That is due to the fact /Simply because;如果打算讲两个以上的原因,可以用In my view, the causes of ...are complicated或者I think a number of explanations are involved here开头,后面再逐条陈述。
4.What/Where/who...?
回答模式:
Direct answer+reason/experience/example
示例结构:
To be honest, it is ...What I mean is...
I would say...There is a combination of factors/simply because. First of all..In addition...
如果题目问了一个具体的信息,比如你想和谁去旅游?这里先直接回答,比如朋友、家人,甚至具体的人名,都可以。后面再解释自己的想法。
5.How often...?
回答模式:
频率+reason/experience/example
示例结构:
I do that pretty much every day. As for me, it is essential as...
I guess two or three times a week. I would like to...
I hardly do that. Compared to..., I prefer...,because...
频率类的问题,如果不是非常确定,不要给出具体的次数。可以用副词修饰,比如roughly或者almost;也可以用2个数据,比如once or twice。
6.Have you ever...?
回答模式:
Yes, I have...If my memory serves correctly, it happened in...,
Frankly speaking, no. simply because….
回答问题是,考官问什么就答什么。Have you...,答Yes,I have; Do you like, 答Yes, I do。注意不是Yes,I like。后面同样是经历展开。
