最近比较清闲：undergraduate已经答辩，9月份才到米国开始master的学习。于是乎我萌生了一个想法，何不利用这段spare time，竭尽全力写点托福备考方面的经验，一方面回报在我申请过程中给与我极大帮助的CD，同时也练练自己的英语，好让自己对即将开始的美国生活打好基础。因此，我打算长期（至少在出国前的两个月中）更新这个帖子，尽量定时更新。至于帖子的内容，先声明下，是本人的一己之谈，多是个人的一些想法和建议，还请各位批判接受，多多指正。

==============================================================================================
Question 1
Describe a book that you believe is the most useful to you. Please explain the reason and include specific examples and details in your explanation.
Answer
Well, I have read a lot of books but I have to say the mostuseful one is called “How to be a good speaker in 10 days”. Believe it or not, I used to be a quite unskilled speaker. Especially when I just startedworking as a teacher, I was pretty shy and even upseton the stage. This book is very helpful to me because it tells me how to usebody languages and eye contact to be a good speaker. After reading this book, I havebeen more confidenton the stage in front of the whole class. So this was the book that did help me a lot.

1. 口语答题结构记得要是总分总。第一句是“总”，后面是“分”，最后一句还是“总”。
2. 记得口语最好的答题策略就是讲故事，而且是自己最熟悉，最符合自己生活中的故事，比如这个回答就比较符合切身实际。加上故事有逻辑性，也好记。
3. 好的句子和词汇已经在文中用蓝色标出。
4. 逻辑性词汇在文中用红色标出。 ======================================================================================================2012.6.14更新内容（其实我在担心有没有人看我写的呢~~）
Review
Let’s have a re-thinking ofwhat we’ve learnt in the former lesson.
Welearnt about how to talk about the most useful book to you. Actually, what Iwant to tell you right now is that this story can be easily transfer to similartopics and thus can save you a lot of preparation time. The other topics youcould use are…
· Themost useful TV program/magazine/article: Simply change the word “book”.
· Aperson who helped/affected/changed you most:
o Inthis case, we will have to change and expand the answer a little bit. Becausewe are talking a person, we will have to provide more detailed information suchas name, what was his job, where did you meet and so on. So a sample answercould be like this:
o Well, I think the personwho helped me most is my friend Jack. Just like me, he is also a teacher in theuniversity and we met each other on an international conference. He is sohelpful because he taught me how to be a good speaker in only 10 days! Believeit or not…
o Youcan complete the answer using the sample answer we’ve learnt in the formerlesson. I leave this job to you because I believe you can finish it easily.Have a try!
Question 2
Which of the following statements do youagree with? Please give specific reasons for your opinion.
Some believe that TV programs have apositive influence on modern society. Others, however, think that the influenceof TV programs is negative.
Answer
Well,in myopinion/as far as I am concerned, I firmly believe/prefer to believe that TV programs have great positive influence onmodern society. Thereare a few reasons for my choice. First and foremost, TV programscan broadcast useful information to manypeople. The public can get the latest news inthe country and worldwide simply by watchingTV programs. What’smore, people love watching TV programs. It is a way to get relax. Forexample, aftera day’s hard work, I really enjoy sitting in the sofa with my family watchingTV program together. Some programs are really funny. Watching TVprograms can help people relief their pressure.

1. 这道口语答题结构记是总分。“总”就是明确陈述我比较倾向哪个选择；后面是“分”，分别陈述两个原因（一般两个原因就够了）。其实还可以有个“总”的，就是最后再陈述下that’swhy I prefer….
2. 一般原因类的题目好答，因为不用编故事，用之前总结的“万能理由”就好。这里的两个万能理由其实就是“getmore information”和“getrelax/relief pressure”。很多问选择或者原因的都是用万能理由，换汤不换药。
3. 原因类的回答开场白都是如本答案的第一句和第二句，一直到“formy choice”记住背下就好。
4. 好的句子和词汇已经在文中用蓝色标出。
5. 逻辑性词汇在文中用红色标出。
6. 万能语句用绿色标出。 |
