虽然很多学生在托福口语考试中做笔记记录重要信息,但这并没有很大程度上提高他们的托福口语*。托福口语记笔记的误区与建议,送给各位托福口语备考生。
托福口语笔记误区
阅读部分:
(1) 盲目地记录一些文章细节,而忽略了对文章整体架构和主要信息的把握。
(2) 缺乏对文章内容进行归纳总结的能力,把握不住文章的重点。
(3) 不能通过阅读短文从而找出接下来要陈述时所能扩展的点或者说是可以说的点。
听力部分:
(1) 在这部分中,大家好走两个极端路线,一是对主体解释的理论部分作了过多的陈述,二是对文章举例部分描述太多,没有把这两个部分的比例合理安排好。
(2) 速记的能力有待提高,而且本身考试的时间也很有限。
(3) 考前没有做充足的准备,没有有计划地进行相关针对性练习,所以导致对题型不了解或者是做题速度上不去。
(4) 有的托友本身的听力、语法、词汇的基础就比较弱,缺乏听力的技巧,譬如对signal words所透露的关键信息的把握。
托福口语笔记建议
(1) Independent task
做笔记时从以下三个方面进行记录:topic主旨、sub-points or supporting details分论点、signal words or transitions信号词。
下面通过一个具体的例题来说明。
Question: Choose a place you go to often that is important to you and explain why it is important. Please include specific details in your explanation.
Topic: library
Sub-point: read, study, rest, appointment
Signal words: firstly, secondly, moreover, the last but not the least
Sample answer:
A library is the most important place for me. I usually go to library twice a week. Firstly, I can read a lot of books for free in the library. Secondly, I can study therebecause it is a quiet place. Moreover, library is also a good place for me to have a rest, because no one bothers you there. The last but not the least, the libraryprovides a wonderful environment for lovers to make an appointment. My parents had such experience!
(2)Integrated task
在做这部分笔记时无论是阅读部分还是听力部分,都从主题topic、事例example、信号词transitions这三面来把握。
下面我们同样通过一个例题来说明。
Bus Service Elimination Planned
The University has decided to discontinue its free bus service for students. The reason given for this decision is that few students ride the buses and the buses are expensive to operate. Currently, the buses run from the center of campus past university buildings and through some of the neighborhoods surrounding the campus. The money saved by eliminating the bus service will be used to expand the overcrowded student parking lots.
The man expresses his opinion of the university's plan to eliminate the bus service. State his opinion and explain the reasons he gives for holding that opinion.
