托福口语题目　　

　　TASK 1

　　第一套 教育

　　Some professors allow students who have not done well on graded assignments during a course to do additional assignments in order to improve their overall course grade. Do you think this is a good idea?【重复2023年7月23日;2023.5.10， 2021.8.29线下原题】

　　Sample Answer

　　Well, I don’t think this is a good idea.

　　Because it’s not fair for the students who work hard and get better grades. Obviously, the students who fail don’t take the courses seriously. They don’t spend much time previewing the study materials and reviewing the class notes like the other students do. And if they can improve their grades by doing something else, those hard-working students would not feel motivated to study anymore.

　　In addition, the additional assignments would also create difficulties and obligations for professors, since they have to put in extra time and energy designing new assignments and grading them. It would just take up too much of their time. And it just wouldn’t be fair for professors either.

　　第二套 社会现象

　　Do you agree or disagree with the following statement?Students should have a one-year vacation before they attend universities.【重复2025年3月29日/2025年5月17日;2021年7月10日线下原题】

　　Well, from my perspective, students should definitely take the year off before entering college. The main reason is because this gap year is a great chance for students to take a break from their heavy workload. What I mean is, high schoolers in China are usually so stressed out due to assignments, and exams. They can take a long break to recharge for college life by traveling, or even staying at home doing nothing. Another reason is that students can actually adapt to their college life better after taking a year off. That is to say, by getting working experiences from doing part-time jobs and internships, students can figure out their career goals. Once they are clear about what they want to become after graduate, students will definitely have a better academic performance during their college years.

　　第三套 社会现象

　　Some people think it is important to wear in a fashionable way, others think it is unnecessary to wear fashionable, which do you prefer and why?【重复2022年7月31日/2025年7月19日线下原题】

　　Sample Answer

　　Well, I don’t think it’s necessary to wear fashionable clothing.

　　First of all, fashionable items can be really expensive because many of them are sold by luxury brands. The stylish jeans and sneakers would definitely put a strain on my tight budget. I don’t see the point of wasting so much money on it. For me, comfort always comes first.

　　Besides, it’s really time-consuming to keep up with the trends. I mean fashion is coming and going at an increasing rate. It’s a never-ending chase. Some clothes that were trending six months ago maybe now considered outdated. So if you wanna follow fashion trends, you are gonna have to keep buying new clothes and that can be really exhausting.

　　第四套 教育

　　Your university is considering a policy in which professors would only be eligible for promotions and salary increases if they receive positive evaluations from students regarding their teaching. Do you agree with this policy? Use specific examples and details to explain why or why not.【重复2020年11月29日线下原题】

　　Sample Answer

　　To be honest, I don’t really think it is realistic. I understand that professors’ academic reputation is essential for their career development, but students’ evaluations are not always reliable. I mean, students could be giving inaccurate reviews because they are in a rush to the next class or they simply don’t want to spend too much time thinking. Besides, there is more than one aspect where professors should be assessed, the quality of their research projects, how much work they have done in tutoring students, etc. We can’t eliminate the possibility when some professors only focus on pleasing students in exchange for good reviews.

　　第五套 教育

　　Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? All high school students should have basic economics class.【重复2011年线下原题】

　　Sample Answer

　　Well, I don't think taking a basic economics class should be required for all high school students.

　　The primary reason is that many students are not that interested in economics. When students are forced to learn something they are not interested in, they won’t stay motivated and dedicated. They’ll even treat the assignments and classes as a chore and nuisance. So eventually they’ll end up having a poor performance or learning nothing at all.

　　Also, economics can be quite challenging and all the assignments and exams might take up a lot of their time, which means students may find it hard to focus on courses or activities that are more important to them. Since most of the students are already under tremendous amount of academic pressure, they shouldn’t be burdened with one more course. That’s why I disagree with the statement.

　　TASK 2

　　第一套 学校政策

　　阅读

　　New Housing for Faculty

　　The university is planning to create some faculty housing on campus by converting Randall Dormitory, which is currently used for student housing, into faculty apartments. Beginning next year, students will no longer be housed in Randall Dormitory, and students who would have been assigned to live there will be placed in other dormitories on campus instead. "There is currently no housing on campus for faculty members, said Dean of Faculty Katherine Smith “so making this new housing available will provide an opportunity for professors who wish to live close to their workplace.”

　　听力

　　听力男生反对

　　1.因为公告可能涉及他所住的宿舍变动，该宿舍地理位置对学生很优越，紧邻自助餐厅和学生中心，方便学生使用;

　　2.他觉得大多数教授不会愿意住在这里，他们能在城里找到更舒适的地方，且多数有车，往返校园方便，所以教授们对这个选项不会很感兴趣。

　　第二套 课程变化

　　阅读

　　阅读：由于平时来办公室答疑(office hour)的学生很少，教授可以取消固定的 office hour，改为课后直接在教室里回答学生问题。

　　听力

　　听力反驳：

　　1.临近考试时，学生会集中利用 office hour 来复习重点、解决难题，取消后无法满足这一高峰需求。

　　2.下课后的时间有限(通常只有 5–10 分钟)，既要收拾教具又可能被下一堂课占用教室，教授无法保证充足时间逐一回答学生疑问。

　　TASK 3

　　第一套 心理学

　　阅读

　　Outcome Dependency

　　People's first impressions of another person may be influenced by whether they need to depend on that person to help them achieve a particular goal. When people are dependent on another person to achieve a goal, or outcome the situation is known as outcome dependency. When people perceive their success as being dependent on another person, they tend to have a favorable initial impression of that person. in other words, the effect of outcome dependency is that people perceive a new acquaintance as having traits that will be helpful in achieving a desired goal.

　　听力

　　研究人员在一家以团队形式工作且有特定销售目标(达成目标团队成员年底可获丰厚奖金)的办公设备销售公司开展研究，他们将销售团队分成两组，均播放同一段关于一名销售人员介绍自身资历和过往工作经历的视频。第一组在观看前仅被要求观看视频，看完后对视频中的男子印象不深，不确定其是否有资质和合适人格特质成为优秀销售人员。第二组在观看前被告知视频中的男子将加入他们的团队，协助销售以实现年底奖金目标，看完后认为该男子非常讨人喜欢，且坚信他很可能是出色的销售人员。

　　两组的唯一区别是第二组将视频中的男子视为共事、依赖并能帮助实现销售目标的对象

　　第二套 农业

　　阅读

　　主题：间作(intercropping)

　　定义：间作(intercropping)是一种在同一地块、同一生长季内，按一定行距、株距或带状排列，同时种植两种或两种以上作物的栽培方式(simultaneous cultivation of two or more crop species in the same field during the same growing season)。其目的是充分利用光、热、水、肥及空间资源，提高单位面积总产量，同时减少病虫害和杂草压力。

　　听力

　　例子：在同一田里同时种植玉米(corn)与大豆(soybean)。

　　• 玉米植株高大，叶片向上伸展，可利用上层阳光;大豆植株较矮，叶片横向展开，可占据下层空间与散射光。

　　• 玉米根系深入土壤吸收深层养分与水分;大豆根系较浅，并具固氮根瘤(nitrogen-fixing nodules)，能把空气中的氮转化为可利用形态，减少化学氮肥需求，同时为玉米补充氮素。

　　• 两种作物收获期相近，便于机械收割;玉米茎秆高大还能为大豆挡部分强风，减少倒伏风险。

　　TASK 4

　　第一套 生物理论

　　Using the examples of the cactus and the yucca, explain two adaptations desert plants have for a windy environment.

　　听力：沙漠环境对植物生存充满挑战，其中强风是重要原因，为此沙漠植物发展出特殊适应性。

　　1.部分适应性可减少到达植物表面积的风量：风会使植物干燥，而沙漠植物需尽可能保水，比如仙人掌，其表面的多刺毛发或刺状物能减弱风力，避免风直接吹拂表面，从而帮助保持水分。

　　2.另一些适应性能帮助沙漠植物避免被沙子掩埋：沙漠中风沙可能堆积覆盖植物导致其死亡，像尤卡属植物，当沙子开始覆盖它们时，茎干会加速生长，使顶端保持在沙土之上，以获得足够阳光和空气。

　　第二套 商业

　　主题：企业保持小规模(remaining small-scale)

　　定义：文章指出，企业保持小规模(remaining small-scale)在竞争激烈的商业环境中具有两项核心优势：

　　1.更紧密的客户关系(closer relationship)：规模小意味着员工人数少、层级扁平，管理者和一线员工能直接、频繁地与顾客互动，快速了解并满足其个性化需求，从而建立更强的信任与忠诚度。

　　2.更高的经营灵活性(flexibility)：小型企业决策链条短，没有繁复的审批流程，可根据市场变化迅速调整产品、定价或营销策略;当新技术或新趋势出现时，它们能比大企业更快试验并落地创新方案。

　　例子：1.客户关系——店主每天在门店与熟客聊天，记住每位顾客的口味偏好，甚至为常客定制专属拼配豆;这种“面对面”服务让复购率远高于连锁品牌。

　　2.灵活性——当社交媒体上突然流行“氮气冷萃”时，该店仅用三天就采购设备、调试配方并推出新品，而大型连锁品牌需要层层审批，往往滞后数周甚至数月。
