托福口语题目　　

　　TASK 1

　　第一套 教育

　　Some people think that it is an important part of a child's education to go on a field trip (for example, museums), other people think a child's time is better spent learning in a classroom at school. Which do you prefer?【重复2022年6月25日，2023年6月3日线下原题】

　　Sample Answer

　　Well, I think it is better for kids to learn in a classroom because I don't think most students will be able to focus during the field trips. Like when they go to the zoo they just get super thrilled and excited about the animals and they may just end up running around and you know, have fun and probably won't be able to pay attention to what the teacher is saying, like the physical features or the behavior of the animals. So it won't be helpful for them to learn.

　　And also, I think studying in the classroom is more economical compared with field trips. Cause, for field trips, students have to pay for the tickets to the museums, the costs of going back and forth and stuff like that. This obviously will create financial burden for the whole family.

　　第二套 教育

　　Your university is planning to require all first-year students to take a class in which they would learn how to use the resources available at the university library and apply those skills in writing a long research paper. Do you think this is a good idea?【重复2022年9月7线下原题】

　　Sample Answer

　　Well, personally I do not think this is a good idea.

　　The primary reason is that many students are not interested in learning these skills and some of them don't really need such skills in their future study. So, if you force them to learn something they have no interest in, they won’t stay motivated and dedicated. And they will even treat assignments and classes as a chore and nuisance. They won’t put their hearts into it and just end up wasting a lot of time. And in worst case scenario, the whole situation would even backfire.

　　Besides, I think students’ time and energy are limited and many freshmen have a hard time adapting to their life. If they have to fit another thing into their already hectic schedule, it may negatively affect their performance on other important courses and activities. That’s the reason why I don’t think forcing students to learn is a good idea.

　　第三套

　　阅读

　　Nowadays, many jobs rely on computers, and people can work and communicate anytime even when they are not in the office. As a result, some people prefer to stay connected with their work and give regular updates during vacations, while others would rather be completely away from work during holidays. Which way do you think is better?

　　听力

　　Well, I definitely choose to completely stay away from work during vacation.

　　The primary reason is that when it comes to vacations, the whole purpose of taking time off is to step away from workplace stress and anxiety—after all, I need moments for myself and meaningful time with family, free from constant worries about deadlines. A true break lets me recharge physically and mentally, which helps me do better at work later.

　　Instead, If I keep checking messages or emails on my phone or laptop, I’ll end up missing important chats and activities with loved ones. That would make them feel like I’m not really there with them, and I don’t want to upset my loved ones that way. Spending quality time with my friends and family is the top priority for me during vacation. Not just “being around” them, but savoring every moment.

　　TASK 2

　　第一套 学校计划

　　阅读

　　Reading(Article): Fiction Reading Room(创意写作项目将在Webster Hall创建一个新阅读室)

　　Point 1：创意写作教师将利用他们的专业知识挑选最近的当代小说和短篇故事，作为阅读室的书单，以便学生能够接触到新鲜的文学声音。

　　Point 2：这些书籍不会提供借阅或带回家，但阅读室将配备舒适的座椅和阅读灯，以便学生可以在舒适的环境中阅读。

　　听力

　　Woman agrees

　　Reason 1: 阅读室将展示最新的当代作品，这些作品可能不会出现在主图书馆里。这样可以帮助学生保持对最新文学趋势的了解，弥补图书馆中缺乏近期书籍的不足。

　　Reason 2：她希望图书馆能够改变政策，因为目前不能借走书籍使得一些学生更难利用这个资源。由于忙碌的日程，学生们通常只能在公交车上或其他零碎时间进行阅读。如果阅读室能提供更灵活的使用方式，学生们将能更有效地利用这些新书。

　　第二套 校园生活

　　阅读

　　No more Jazz Choir(学校明年开始discontinue the Jazz Choir)

　　Point 1-学生缺乏参与的兴趣，因为现在找不到足够的student singers to fill the jazz choir。

　　Point 2-想参加choir的学生，可以参加学校里面的other choir。

　　听力

　　Woman Disagrees

　　Reason 1-之所以参加的学生少，真正的原因是因为一周要排练3天，如果把排练的频率降到一周一次，参与的学生就会多一些。

　　Reason 2-如果Jazz Choir没了，其他的合唱团专攻的是classical music的方向，和Jazz完全不同。喜欢Jazz的学生压根不喜欢Classical music，所以这种安排并不合理。

　　第三套 校园生活

　　阅读

　　Gym Should Offer Fitness Classes(建议大学健身房增加团体健身课程)

　　Point 1：周围有其他人可以让你感到更有动力，因此我认为团体课程会鼓励学生更多地锻炼。

　　Point 2：由于学生的经济条件有限，我认为大学应该免费提供这些课程。

　　听力

　　Woman agrees

　　Reason 1: 她去年夏天和一个朋友报了一个镇上的课程。她们定期去上课，作为一个小组一起做很有趣，她们甚至考虑报名下一个班次。

　　Reason 2：提议提供免费的课程是可行的，因为可能有很多人愿意自愿担任教练，尤其是一些在市里健身房工作的学生，他们可能愿意每周在这里教一节免费的课。

　　TASK 3

　　第一套 心理学

　　阅读

　　Reading: Defensive Pessimism(防御性悲观)

　　定义：A tendency used by people who hope to avoid the negative outcomes they are imagining(人们会把可能发生的最坏情况提前想到，然后做一些相对应的措施还避免不好的情况发生)

　　听力

　　上个月教授和一个朋友出差(Academic Conference)，但是在纽约机场他们的行李被弄丢了。教授的朋友expected it in advance，所以他提前准备了一些文件和衣服。而教授什么都没有准备，所以他只能匆匆忙忙的去买衣服然后打印文件。

　　第二套 商业

　　阅读

　　Role-Playing In Training Salespeople(销售培训中的角色扮演)

　　定义： 一种企业用来帮助培训销售人员应对销售过程中客户疑虑的技术。 A technique used by businesses to help prepare their salespeople to answer customer concerns.

　　听力

　　The professor’s brother教授的兄弟，开了一家店卖车(owns an automobile dealership)，然后他就会用这种role playing的技巧来培训销售。首先，his brother装作自己是顾客买车，然后质疑这个车太贵了，然后销售人员需要说服这个客户，talk about the special feature of the car, 比如省油，驾乘体验舒适。多次这么练习之后，销售员salesperson就可以talk to real customers了。

　　第三套 生物理论

　　阅读

　　Directed Deterrence(定向威慑)

　　定义：定向威慑是指植物通过特定的适应性特征来阻止某些动物物种进食，同时允许其他动物物种安全进食。(For some plants, these adaptations are only directed at certain animal species, a phenomenon known as directed deterrence.)

　　听力

　　wild chili plant(野生辣椒植物)辣椒中含有一种叫做capsaicin(/kæpˈseɪsɪn/ 辣椒素)的化学物质。capsaicin会引起人类和一些动物物种的疼痛和刺激感。cactus mouse生活在与辣椒植物相同的沙漠环境中，但因为cactus mouse对capsaicin非常敏感，所以辣味让它们远离辣椒植物。这对辣椒植物来说是好事，因为当cactus mouse吃水果时，它们会吃掉种子。然而，在同一地区的thrashers舌头上的神经受体不会感知辣椒素的热感，辣椒是它们饮食的一部分。thrashers对种子的消化不好，一旦吃下辣椒种子，这些种子很快以原样的状态排出体外。当它们从一个地方飞到另一个地方时，会留下种子，从而使新的辣椒植物得以生长。

　　TASK 4

　　第一套 人类学

　　主题: 2 methods for humans to benefit from the natural resources in their surrounding environments(人类从周围环境的自然资源中获益的两种方法)

　　Method 1: 一种有效利用这些资源的方法是建筑领域。由于一些火山材料既轻便又耐用，它们能够持久使用。人们发现这些材料在建筑项目中尤其有用。事实上，一些古代建筑至今仍然屹立不倒就是用火山材料建造的。

　　例子： Pantheon(万神殿)古罗马人通过将火山灰混入混凝土中，建造了Pantheon，该建筑至今已经有2000多年的历史。火山灰的添加使得万神殿的圆顶既足够坚固，可以承受时间的侵蚀，又足够轻盈，不会在自身重量下坍塌。

　　Method 2: 人们在农业方面也受益于火山材料。多年来，火山灰能够形成肥沃的土壤，这种土壤非常适合耕作。这是因为火山灰帮助土壤保持额外的水分和植物生长所需的营养。对于那些位于火山灰区域的早期文明而言，这使得他们能够成功地种植和交易作物。

　　例子： taro(芋头)taro是夏威夷岛屿上的人们赖以生存的作物，它需要持续的湿润环境才能生长。由于这些地区的土壤中含有火山灰，能够保持水分，夏威夷岛上的人们能够大量种植taro。

　　第二套 环境科学

　　2 ways that some animals species have evolved due to the change caused by human activity(两种动物物种因人类活动变化而进化的方式)

　　Way 1: 一些动物进化出较小的身体，以避免被人类捕食。由于人类偏好较大的动物以获取更多肉类，体型较小的动物更容易生存。(Some animals have smaller bodies to keep them from being eaten by humans. Since humans prefer larger animals to get more meat, animals with smaller bodies will be more likely to survive.)

　　例子：Fish一些鱼类进化成较小的体型，因为人们捕捞较大、更有肉的鱼类，因此这些鱼类今天比过去更小。(Some kinds of fish evolve to have smaller size since people will catch larger and meatier fish for food. So these fish today are smaller than they were in the past.)

　　Way 2：第二种方式与一些动物脑部的增大有关。为了在陌生或新栖息地中生存，动物需要更聪明。(And the second way relates to the larger brains some animals have developed. In order for animals to survive in unfamiliar or new habitats, they need to be smarter.)

　　例子：Mice例如，老鼠曾生活在农村地区，但当人类在这些地方建造城市时，只有脑部较大的老鼠能够找到生存的方法。随着时间的推移，这些脑部较大的老鼠得以生存并繁殖。(For instance, mice used to live in rural areas, but when humans built cities in these places, only mice with larger brains could figure out how to survive. Overtime, these mice that have larger brains survived and were able to reproduce.)

　　第三套 生物理论

　　主题: how animals benefit from being in a large group(动物在大群体中的好处)

　　Benefit 1: 大量动物聚集在一起可以让掠食者感到不知所措。掠食者无法同时捕捉到所有动物，只能追逐其中一部分，因此大多数动物的生存率增加。

　　例子： bat当蝙蝠在洞穴中休息时，它们离开洞穴时通常会同时飞出，这样洞外的捕食者只有时间抓住少数几只蝙蝠。

　　Benefit 2: 大群体中的动物可以相互警告掠食者的
