從「題型問法」中我們看到，本月出題官佛心來著，沒有出燒腦的三選一題型，4月21日的場次則出現了新題。至於主題方面，從題目總表我們發現，本月以「校園」和「生活相關」為主。
托福口說整合型題目：提升快速筆記的能力
Task 3 + Task 5：校園場景相關
在Task 3中，4月份出現的都是「校園相關政策」，但是反對和支持聲浪到是1:1的勢均力敵。針對「反對觀點」，我們必須對於此類題目的閱讀和聽力結構來分析；閱讀中一般會出現兩個優點或理由，而聽力中，則會針對這兩點理由提出疑問，如提出此政策的漏洞和忽略的點，接著根據這樣的因素再提供細節，如此一來，聽力中闡述概括性的、閱讀中所缺漏或忽視因素佔據了一定時間，後面給出的細節其實訊息量不會特別大。反觀「同意觀點」的題目，因為聽力部分不會花太多時間重覆閱讀中已經給出的原因，反而用來佐證閱讀觀點的細節量和新資訊相對較多。 無論內容細節和資訊量的多寡，培養「習慣偏快語速的聽力能力」和「快聽快記筆記能力」是解決綜合題型的關鍵，建議平時練習不僅要重視組織語言的精煉度，同時還要重視聽+讀的練習和提升快速筆記的能力。
Task 4 + Task 6：學術場景相關
4月份Task 4的主題全部落在「生物學」而Task 6的部分則是「生物學」和「社會學」主題各佔一半。與「學術場景」相關，需要注意Task 4的聽力部分例證大多數是單例。4月份的考試也是呈現全數單例的狀況，備考的同學要請多留意。
