一、独立口语第1题 TASK1:
① Imagine that you have to give up watching TV for one month. What would be
the most difficult thing for you and why? Please include reasons and examples in
your explanation.
The most difficult thing for me is missing all those exciting NBA games for
one month. In fact, I’m a big fan of basketball, and I’ve been watching NBA
games for about 10 years. Believe or not, when I was in the university, my
roommates and I would never miss anyone of them. The reason why I love the game
so much is that all those players are significantly strong, talented, and
persistent. Also, what attracts me the most is the teamwork which is perfectly
interpreted by San Antonio Spurs, who’s won several championships by defeating
some really amazing teams like Detroit Pistons.
② Describe a special gift you’ve given to a friend and explain why it is
important. Please include reasons and details to support your response.
I’ve given a basketball to my roommate/colleague on his birthday last year.
It’s very important to me, because I think giving him a present is a good way to
enhance our friendship, which is also beneficial for our cooperation in the
company. What’s more, both he and I are really interested in playing basketball.
By giving him such a gift, we can keep us informed that we should spare some
time to go shoot some hoops every now and then. For example, we’d play
basketball every weekend. I think it’s good way to do exercises and keep
fit.
③What is your favorite place to do exercise outdoors on a nice day and why?
Please include details and examples in your explanation.
Beach is my favorite place to do exercise on a nice day, because I can feel
closer to nature. For example, along the beach of my hometown, Hainan Island,
there are various tropical plants like palm and banana trees. Also, the sky is
blue and the sea is grand and clean. On top of all these above, beach is the
place where I can participate in all kinds of aquatic activities, like swimming,
boating, and even snorkeling, which is really exciting and attractive to me.
Last but not least, after doing exercises, I can get access to lots of culinary
delight, especially the seafood such as lobsters and crabs.
④If you had the chance to travel to the moon, would you choose to go and
why? Please use examples and reasons to support your answer.
If I got this chance, I would definitely say “yes” ! As we all know, before
going to the moon, I have to make sure that my body is in a really good
situation. In order to do so, I need to do lots of exercises and even get some
professional training. So, it’s really a good chance to build a strong body.
What’s more, by traveling to the moon, I can get access to those marvelous
sights that human beings can only dream about. For example, looking at the earth
from an unique angle, I can get a whole picture of this planet. I do believe
it’s a brand new experience to find out my country in front of the real planet
instead of the map.
⑤What would you do to handle too many assignments at a time? Please include
specific details and examples in your response.
When it comes to many assignments at a time, I prefer to finish one
assignment before starting another one, This option can help me to focus on one
single thing at a time, which is really crucial for improving the efficiency.
Also, I would like to improve my efficiency by cooperating with others. For
example, when I was in my university, one of my major missions is to deal with
papers. Every time when we got the paper assignment, I would form a study group
with my classmates. Normally, we’d divide the task into 3 parts, including
searching for information in libraries or online, doing investigation, and
revising.
⑥What are the advantages and disadvantages of requiring students to
evaluate their professors at the end of the semester? Explain why. Please
include details and examples in your response.
One of the major advantages of asking students to evaluate their professors
is that the education quality could be greatly improved. Let me tell you this
way. By doing such an evaluation, there could be an invisible competition
happening between those professors. And in order to win or fight for their
reputation, professors themselves might devote more efforts to their teaching or
researching, which is beneficial for enhancing the school’s academic
performance. However, the disadvantage of such an action is that the
relationship between professors and students might be jeopardized, especially
when the evaluation is pretty ugly.
二、托福独立口语2题 TASK2:
①Some people prefer to spend their free time with a group of friends.
Others prefer to spend their free time with just one person at a time. Which do
you prefer? Why?
Personally, I prefer to spend my spare time with a group of friends,
because more people bring more fun and we can figure out many interesting ways
to have fun together. For example, we can go to the KTV in the evening, go for a
picnic on a nice day, or work out in the gym. Another advantage of spending time
with a group is a good way to save money, especially when we are eating in those
modern restaurants. As we all know, we can get a really good discount if we
choose the group buying. However, staying with one person at a time can be
really boring due to the lack of enthusiasm.
②Some people prefer to live in different places throughout their lives.
Others prefer to stay and live in one place. Which do you prefer and why?
I tend to live in different places throughout my life. As we all know,
different places hold their own eating habits. For example, people in the
southern part of China prefer to eat spicy food like hot pot, but people in the
northern part loves dumplings or noodles. So, living in different places offers
us a chance to enjoy various culinary delight. Also, living in different places
can help to broaden one’s horizon due to different cultures or customs. However,
living in the same place for a whole life could be boring, because it’s natural
for us to lose interests if we get really familiar with certain things.
③Should your government build a library or a park in your community and
why?
I think that our government should build a park in our community. First,
there is a phenomenon that most young adults are working in the workplace to
support their families, which leaves these old people at home alone. With a park
in our community, these lonely people I just talked about could be given a
chance to hang around with their peers. For example, they can chat or play chess
together. What’s more, modern park would be equipped with various facilities
like fitness equipment, which are beneficial for the old to do exercises to keep
healthy.
④Some people prefer to spend their vacation in the countryside while others
prefer large cities. Which do you prefer and why?
Personally, I prefer to spend my vacation time in the countryside. First,
compared with big cities, the countryside has less factories, which means less
pollution. So, spending vacation there is healthier, and the knowledge of being
in a healthy environment can help to revitalize one’s mood and thus improve the
quality of vacation. Also, the countryside is a place where we can escape from
steels, concretes, and chaos and feel closer to nature. For example, when you
visit the countryside, you’ll find green lands, trees, or rivers virtually
everywhere. And all these natural factors combined can help to relax
ourselves.
⑤(A/D) Gifts made by people themselves are more meaningful than those
bought from stores? Explain why.
I disagree with the statement, and I believe that both those gifts made by
people themselves or bought from stores are equally meaningful. First, we cannot
deny that people would definitely appreciate their friends’ gesture when they
are trying to make gifts by themselves, because only those who care about you
would choose to devote their own time, ideas, and efforts to your birthday
presents. However, it should also be admitted that people are showing that they
treat you as dear friends when they try to buy you a cute toy or a nice cup from
the store. From my perspective, all gifts are equally meaningful and important
if they are from your buddies.
