搞定托福口语“书籍”类话题思路转换
首先我们要明白一个道理:托福口语对考生逻辑论述能力要求比较高,需要我们在提供观点时,解释清楚原因,提供例子和细节去支持原因。

我们来看一个经典Task 1,来自TPO1:

Talk about a book you read that was important to you for some reason. Explain why the book was important to you. Give specific details and examples to support your answer.

  这个题就是需要考生描述一本重要的书籍,还要给出重要的理由。在这里,我们要知道,考官并不真的在乎我们要说的书是什么!题目需要我们展示的是书为什么重要、如何重要,并不一定要讲述书的内容。只要我们在答题时留言流畅,和话题相关就可以得到不错的分数。

  例如:故事很有趣,我们可以这么说:The story in the book was so interesting and appealing that once I began to read it, I couldn’t stop. /The book was so fun to read that I couldn’t help laughing every time I read it. It brought me a lot of happiness.

  再或者:故事很有意义,我们可以这么说:The story in the book was not only exciting but also inspiring. It taught me so much about the world we were living and showed me different ways people thought. /The story was meaningful and inspiring. It taught me to keep going and never give up, which is the most important lesson in life.

  例如:书本可能会对你的学业有帮助,我们可以说:The book is beneficial to my academic learning. It provides much extra information on my major courses in addition to school textbooks.

  又或者:此书还可能帮你交到朋友:To be honest, I met my girlfriend thanks to this book. We were sitting in the reading room next to each other and reading the same book! What a coincidence! Then we began to talk about how much we liked the writer and his books. Next thing you knew, she gave me her number!
