口說的獨立題型Task 1 & 2跟寫作獨立題型相似，常常在撰寫口說分析文的時候，都會有一點時空錯亂的情形，以為還在寫作的項目。Task 1按問法分為以下4種類型：「3選1」、「開放觀點」、「建議」和「描述」，Task 2則主要會出現「2選1」類和「是非類」2種類型。從「題型問法」中我們看到，Task 1 出現了「3選1」、「開放觀點」和「建議類」的題型。Task 2 只出現「2選1」的題目。 至於主題方面，本月還是以「校園相關」為主，其它像是「朋友」和「家庭」相關的主題也有出現。

2018/9/02 Task 1口說3選1新題作答範本

If you are the interviewer, which aspect about the interviews will you take into most consideration?
a. the performance of the interview
b. degree or diploma
c. previous work experience

快速破題句 When it comes to assessing the qualifications of an interviewee, 選擇C it is work experience that counts most. 推翻A的理由 It is true the performance of the interview provides a rough picture of personality and enthusiasm toward work, yet the interview may only happen to present the best or worst part of the interviewee; it does not tell the whole tale. 推翻B的理由 Although 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. 選擇C的理由 Differently, previous work experiences serve as a direct gauge of the interviewee’s suitability. Not only will the interviewer be informed of which level the candidate has been involved in a similar field of job, work experience also reveals the interviewee’s loyalty, adaptability, and extent of training.

對抗口說題目，最重要的就是「語料」，考前多加訓練充沛自己的語料庫是不二法則。針對3選1的題型，得快速構思；答題時是一開就得快速破題，然後 選擇其中一個去對照其它兩個問題，如上方示範。

TOEFL口說Task 4作答千萬不能加入個人觀點

Task 3 + Task 5：校園場景相關

9月份Task 3閱讀主題為「建議信」和「校園政策」，贊成和反對觀點各50%的機率。Task 5 的主題變得非常多元，除了常出現的「時間衝突」和「住宿問題」外，9月份還有「學習」和「人際」的內容。「贊成觀點」Task 3口說作答結構通常會比反對的來的單純一些，所以這邊還是針對「反對觀點」的真題來做示範。

2018/9/02 Task 3口說考題反對觀點作答範本

What has been argued in the two passages is whether the college should purchase more bicycles for rent on the campus. As the reading suggests, this practice is beneficial because the present rental bicycles are not enough to meet the demands; also, with the new rental bicycles available, the present ones will be maintained and fixed for longer use. The lecturer, however, disagrees by saying there is no need for such purchases because many people have their own bicycles and will not rent the bicycles; on the other hand, many of the bicycles need maintenance, but there is only limited personnel responsible for the job. Instead of buying, the school should train or hire more technicians for maintenance.

黃色highlight的部分為閱讀，裡面說明了2個學校需要添購單車的理由，其它部分則為聽力裡面反對其觀點的2個資訊。Task 3算是口說中較簡單的一個題型，主要為擷取閱讀和聽力的重點加以summarize即可。該題的簡單架構可查看下方提供的中文key notes所示：

閱讀中一般會出現2個理由，而聽力中，則會針對這2點理由提出疑問，接著根據這樣的因素再提供細節。

Task 4 + Task 6：學術場景相關

9月份的Task 4 「心理學」主題占了一半，「商業」和「生物」主題出現的機率各佔25%。Task 6的主題分佈很整齊，一半為「心理學」，另一半則為「生物學」。Task 4題型中，閱讀會先給一個概念，然後聽力內容出現舉例；作答時用2-3句話概括閱讀段落大意，切記重點在聽力段落描述。商業是相對比較少出現的題目，特別挑出商業類的作答示範給考生們參考。

The set of passages sheds light on affinity marketing. As the reading passage defines, many businesses, in order to attract more customers, offer special discounts for customers from other affiliated businesses so a win-win situation will be created. To illustrate this concept, the speaker uses his friend’s business as the example. Running a fitness clothing store, his friend offers visitors to the gym in the neighborhood 20%-off coupons for his fitness garments. As the results demonstrate, those who are offered the coupons do come to purchase the sports gears, proving such marketing strategy does lead to success.
