2018/11/25 Task 1口說3選1新題作答範例

In your opinion, which criterion is most important for college students to choose a suitable dormitory?
a. a friendly roommate
b. offering enough space of storage
c. in proximity to supermarkets or restaurants

利用主題句快速破題 When it comes to choosing a suitable dormitory, the most important concern is whether it is close to supermarkets or restaurants. 推翻選項A的理由 True, having a nice and friendly roommate is important, but throughout the entire college life, you may not spend much time with him or her given your different time for class and all kinds of activities, so it is not the No. 1 concern. 推翻B的理由 On the other hand, a dormitory is only temporary accommodation, so it will not require roomy, cozy space to house a lot of personal belongings; it just needs space for the basics, such as books, a desk and a bed. 選擇C的理由 Differently, strong academic performances suggest the candidate’s strength in some way, many cases demonstrate that schoolwork and work in business are not on the same page. being in close proximity to supermarkets or restaurants is vital because people eat on a daily basis in the first place; besides, while supermarkets sell other daily essentials, clothes and entertainments, restaurants provide a nice spot for socialization and delicious meals to reward one’s academic efforts from time to time.

托福口說務必針對第五題多加練習

Task 3 + Task 5：校園場景相關

11月份Task 3的閱讀主題維持常見的「校園政策」占67%和「學生建議」33%。Task 5主題變得較為分散，除了常考的「時間衝突」和「金錢問題」還多了「住宿」、「人際」和「學習」問題。
Task 5是托福口說中最難的一題，主要是因為面對這樣的題型，考生需要在短時間內快速瞭解題目馬上分析，另外還需加上一點想像力才能順利解題。因此會建議考生們練習口說時要特別針對第5題多加練習。

Task 4 + Task 6：學術場景相關

11月份的Task 4 「心理學」和「生態學」主題變成主力，各占了40%，「生物」主題出現的機率只佔20%。Task 6的主題，「商業學」變成大宗，佔了50%，再來為「生物學」33%，「藝術學」只佔17%。
Task 6題型重點：1. describe a situation or a problem、2. only paraphrase。11月份的托福考試，生物主題不管在Task 4或是Task 6都有出現，所以特別挑出11月4日的考試作答示範給同學們參考。

2018/11/04 Task 6口說考題作答範本

Explored in the passage are the two principal ways to hypothesize dinosaurs’ physical features. The first strategy is to compare their bone structures to those of related modern animals. As birds use their wings to maintain their balance, dinosaurs may also be fitted with similar physiological adaptations to keep balanced while running. Another strategy is to refer to their imprints left in the mud. If the imprints suggest the shape of a long tail, they suggest that the dinosaurs were equipped with long tails trailing the ground.
