8月19日托福线下考情回顾,来看看难度怎么?
8.19的托福考试结束了,不知道小伙伴们发挥的如何?在大家经历了8.15的崩溃场之后,周末这场托福考试好像也有点奇奇怪怪,很多同学感觉阅读都读懂了,但是分数却让人大跌眼镜,不知道这是改革后ETS更新了什么新的出题思路吗?
01
口语部分-Speaking
Task1【新题】
Do you agree or disagree with the following statement?Parents should be friends with their children.
父母能不能和孩子成为朋友?
Task2
学校翻新,会增加音乐练习室给所有同学,听力里学生先很赞同,因为他作为非音乐专业学生,这样可以去练琴,但是又表达了不满的地方,因为他晚上有兼职,几乎很难用到练习室,希望以后能多开放一些时间。
Task3
动物的conversation-reliant behavior,濒危动物会依赖人类的救助行为,当人类停止他们就更难生存。
听力例子是夏威夷一种鸟,但是人类因为保护这个鸟修建的fence都很贵,维修起来也花钱,而且如果一段时间过去,不采取这些措施保护的话,那些鸟依然会灭绝。
Task4
positive and negative reinforcement(心理学上的正强化和负强化)。
positive例子用的是早起后给自己一个奖励,比如做顿美味的早餐,就是强化某中行为之后的pleasure达到强化行为。
negative的例子是(remove the unpleasant behavior):不喜欢早起洗澡,那么可以改在晚上,这样人也就不会那么讨厌早起。也就是remove某种不喜欢的内容来强化行为。
02
写作部分-Writing
学术讨论写作
Dr.Diaz:Now it is generally accepted that education should be lifelong.Scholars should still be educated after they leave high school and college.What field do you think adults should study?
Andrew:They should be allowed to learn a second language because people need to communicate with others and communication skills are very helpful to their careers.
Claire:I think they should study art history.Considering that nowadays people work under great pressure,learning art can reduce stress and cultivate one's self.
综合写作
一种single-stream recycling(垃圾分类)的优缺点,阅读说了三个缺点:
1.不安全,对于分类的工人来说危险
2.在分类过程中会不能很好分开,一些材料会被当成垃圾丢掉
3.这套系统建造成本很贵
听力反驳:
First of all,the professor states that the risk of being cut could be reduced to acceptable levels.To be specific,as long as workers are given safety training,follow the proper safety procedures,wear protective clothing and given quick access to medical help when there is an injury,the safety of workers could be guaranteed.This directly disagrees with the reading passage which says that single-stream recycling can be dangerous for workers at the recycling center.
Secondly,the speaker claims that the single stream recycling could oppositely reduces waste when we look at this in a big picture.As the easy and convenient process of placing all recyclables in a single container encourages many more families to participate,they stop throwing stuff away as waste like what they do in the traditional system,which increases the overall quality of materials that gets recycled and reused.This compensates for the comparatively small amount that gets contaminated.Again this contradicts what is stated in the reading which believes that contamination from materials not being separated well is unavoidable in single-stream recycling.
Thirdly,the speaker maintains that although the single steam system spends more money,they are less costly to operate.Unlike the traditional program which requires two trucks to pick up family's recycling materials with one for each type,single stream recycling uses only one truck to pick up all the recyclables,thus saving money from the reduced fuel and labor cost.As a result,the overall cost of operating the whole program reduces significantly when the initial outlay of building the facility is spent.However,in the reading,the writer holds the opinion that single-stream recycling systems are expensive to build.
03
听力部分-Listening
Conversation
1.学生去问工作人员parking lot为什么变了,工作人员说学校要用这片地盖新的residence hall。新的parking lot位置非常不方便在北边,需要新的parking pass。学生想要换到visitor parking lot,因为对学生来说那个位置更加方便,因为学生在lab每天都很晚回去,时间也不固定。工作人员让学生去问transportation department的负责人,还说同意的可能性很小。
2.学生问老师自己报名的volunteer work啥时候出结果,教授好像说周五。然后教授说以为她会选art repairing,结果她选了excavation。学生说毕业之前想多做点项目。教授就挖墙脚让她来搞自己的项目,有学分拿,给已经毕业的学生送questionnaire,问就业情况。
