托福口语拿高分的要点
1.托福口语拿高分的要点
都说托福口语想要拿到高分难度很高，相对于阅读和听力来说也的确如此。口语高分不仅需要考生具备高超的表达能力，在阅读听力甚至写作部分的实力也不可或缺，可以说口语考的是综合实力。
1.好的阅读、听力、写作基础
一般来讲，若在托福考试中，阅读和听力成绩都在20分以下，如此口语冲击到25+的可能性就并不会太高了。同时事实上若阅读和听力成绩在20分以下，口语冲击到25+的必要性可能并不会很大吧。而事实证明，独立写作可以获得good的同学，口语拿的可能性会更大一些。由于一个在写作考试中，在时间更加宽裕的情况下是难以半语言组织明白的考生，很难想象他会在口语考试中做到条理通顺，有理有据。所以在进行托福口语学习之前，先要打好其他几项的基础。
2.比较好的语音语调
若把阅读、听力以及写作基础要达到"好"的标准才可以情况下，如此语音语调要的只是做到"比较好"就可以了。ETS针对语音语调的要求一直暧昧不明。可以肯定的是，一个语音语调十分的出色，而且直逼到母语者的考生，在托福口语考试里肯定是会有先天性的优势的。也就是说，在其他条件(阅读听力实力、答题思路、语言功底)都一样的情况下，语音语调更出色的考生，分数一定会更高一些，不过在口语高分段，这种差距最多也只是1-2分而已。
2.托福独立口语常见教育类话题范文
一、题目
Some students like classes where teachers lecture in class. Other students prefer classes where the students do some of the talking. Which type of class do you prefer?
Sample answer：
Both teaching and learning approaches are valuable and have relative merits. Classes dominated by teacher's lectures are full of enthusiasm which stimulates interest.
Then the interested people tend to learn more. Also, lectures provide a faster, simpler method of presenting information to the students. They are particularly useful for students who read poorly or who are unable to organize the material. While on the other hand, tutorial allows students to participate in discussions which put them in an active role rather than a passive one. However, neither of them is universal. Therefore, I can hardly say that I prefer either approach; I think the choice should depend on circumstances including the subject to learn, the depth to explore and the quality that the lecturer or the discussing group have.
二、题目
Do you think the high school should teach music and art as other basic science? Include details and examples to support your opinion.
Sample answer：
Music and art should be important components(成分，科目) of the school curriculum(课程) because they have many uses besides recreation.
To study music is to study the basics. Through its study, students come into contact with(接触) other basic areas of the curriculum: math, science, social studies, languages, and physical education.
Apart from that, music, like reading, writing and speaking, conveys(传达) thoughts, ideas and feelings. It also provides an avenue for(提供方法/途径) developing self-expression and creativity.
On the other hand, art education in itself has tremendous value(具有巨大价值). Learning about the history, sharing ideas and knowledge, is always a good thing. Music and art, therefore, as important parts of our lives, should be taught in high school.
三、题目
Do you think sports courses should be a required part of every school day?
Sample answer：
From my point of view, sports courses form an essential part of children's education for many reasons. First of all, doing sports helps maintain the physical fitness of students. Movement coming from physical exertion during exercise promotes circulation of blood to all parts of the body. Thus, it results in vigor and stamina which help to prevent diseases and sickness.
Moreover, exercise develops sportsmanship among students. When they play as a team, they are able to identify their role and worth to reach the same goal. It also helps enrich/promote/improve their friendship and personality.
Therefore, I think sports courses should be mandatory (必修的) in school.
