托福独立口语留给考生的审题和思考时间很少,因此常有考生在看到题目后根本来不及做好构思就只能很被动地开始回答,而这样的回答得分也往往并不理想。下面小编就通过3个实例为大家分析讲解托福独立口语构造观点实现快速答题的具体方法。
实例1:Watch a movie at theatre or watch the movie at home, which one do you prefer?
要在电影院看电影,还是在家看电影之间做选择。从个人感受来想大家多数可能都会选择去电影院看电影,但是除了说big screen,或者永远也不知道怎么用英文表示的“热闹”之外,大家就不知道再怎么继续说下去了。其实不妨从Time & Money方面来考虑,我们是否能把话题说的更具逻辑性和更具体呢?
Time - watch the movie at home.
在家看电影是最省时间的方式了。如果去电影院看电影,家住得远的还要大老远跑到市中心去看。为了看热门电影,还要排长队买票,买完票后还要等好久才能看到电影。从这些经历来看,确实在家看电影也不错。
I prefer to watch the movie at home because of the matter of time. I mean, watching movies at theatre is time-consuming. Once, when I planned to watch the movie at cinema, I have to reach there at least one hour in advance. What’s more, for those box office movies, I have to wait a long queue to get the ticket and wait until the beginning of the movie.
Money - helps to save money.
在家看省钱。不出家门就能看到电影。而去电影院看电影,路上要花钱pay for the transport,买票要花钱fees for tickets,看电影还要带着点零食和饮料money spend on snacks and beverages,这样一罗列确实在家能省好多。
Another reason is the matter of cost. I mean, watching at theatre costs more than at home. To be more specific, I have to pay for the transport and there are fees for tickets. Sometimes, I have to spend money on snacks and beverages. So I think watching at home is a more cost-effective way.
通过以上两个段落,把时间和金钱两个观点整合起来,那我们就可以得到一个完整的独立题的逻辑表达了。
实例2:Celebrate the birthday in holding a party or celebrate the birthday quietly, which one do you prefer?
要我们在办生日party和一个人默默无闻地过生日之间进行选择。如果大家选择办个party,理由1. 热闹 2. 礼物。那我们如何快速地从时间和成本的角度想呢?
省时间 — 一个人过
I prefer to celebrate the birthday alone because of the problem of time. You know, as a university student, in addition to the academic work, I have joined in lots of school clubs. Every day, I have a tight schedule. What’s more, in order to holding a party, I have to design and decorate the place ahead of time, which will, all cost lots of time.
成本低 — 一个人过
Another reason is that holding a party costs lots of money. I mean, I have to rent a place which can accommodate all my friends. What’s more, the food and decoration can also be a burden for the freshman who does not have income like me. It is better to celebrate quietly.同样,我们把时间和成本整合起来就可以对我们的话题进行完整描述了。 |
