小编:环球教育 400众所周知,托福口语考试中有地点类话题。为了避免无话可说的尴尬,准备托福口语语料库变得异常重要。下面,小编就为大家带来托福口语地点类话题的语料库。希望对正在备考托福口语的考生有所帮助。
托福口语地点类话题常见题目如:你最想去的地方,你所在城 市的景点,想跟朋友一起去的地方。当然也会有这样的题目:你是喜欢在大城市读大学还是喜欢在小镇上读大学。乍一看这个题跟地点没有关系,如果我稍加变通就 可以用很多跟大城市相关的语料,如果选择在大城市上学的话,生活更方便如可以去fancy restaurant, bars, shopping malls, coffee shops, bookstores等等而在这些地方我们都可以接触很多人,继而可以用如下的语料:meet new people, make new friends,broaden your horizon, get to know local cultures and customs, enrich your experience等等。试看以下关于地点的真题:
1.Describe a place that you like best in your city. Please state why you like it with specific examples and details.
2.When you are together with your friends, which place would you like to go? 3.Describe a public area that you visit frequently. Please state why you visit it.frequently and include specific examples and details in your explanation.
4.Some students prefer to choose universities located in big cities. Others would like to study in universities located in small towns. Please state your opinion and explain why.
5.When travelling, some people prefer to reach the destination directly. Some others prefer to stop and look around the scenery along the way. What kind of way of travelling do you think is better and why?
如果仔细分析以上题目的话不难发现都跟地点息息相关,当然每道题目也有细微的差别,这就需要考生认真分析,更有针对性的利用语料库回答以免跑题。
