托福综合口语中主要涉及的是校园情景对话和大学生在大学生活中会遇到的各种问题,这些问题可能会引起我们的共鸣,因此内容并不难理解,而且没有阅读文章,只需要听一段对话即可。主要考察的是学生的听和说的能力。对话中的一个学生会遇到诸如课程安排冲突,得不到想要的资料,学生选举,手头拮据等问题,另一个学生会给出两个解决方案,而第五题的问题则要求考生复述学生的问题和解决方案,然后选出自己认为的最佳方案,并给出两个理由。本次前程百利小编要和大家分享的是托福口语task5中关于住宿类经常会用到的一些词汇,希望可以帮助大家在托福口语考试中取得好成绩!
首先以一篇TPO中的听力内容为例,为大家展示一下住宿类的话题时怎样组织文章内容的。
A: Hey, Beth? How are things?
B: Not great.
A: Why, what's wrong?
B: I just found out I had to move out my apartment. Like right away.
A: You are kidding, why?
B: Well, my apartment is.. It’s in a house, a kind of old house. And now, something is wrong with the water pipes, I think some of the pipes burst, or wore out or something. Anyway, we don't have any water in the house and apparently it's going to take about two weeks to fix the problem.
A: So you need to find a place to live for what. Two weeks or so?
B:Yeah, bad timing, a ha. With mid-term exams coming up and everything.
A: So have you figured out what you are going to do?
B: Well, some friends said I could stay at their place, they don't have an extra bedroom. But they said it 'd be okay for me to sleep on their living room couch.
A: You could probably handle that for a couple of weeks, right?
B: I guess so. I mean it's really nice of them to offer, and it's free. The only problem is they already have four people living there, so it could be a little crowded. And not ideal for studying for mid terms.
A: Yeah, too many distractions. Any other options?
B: Well, I did find this place, it's a small hotel over on third street right near campus.
A: Oh, right. A lot of kids' parents stay there when they come for a visit.
B: Right. So I could get a room there. They have a weekly rate and it's pretty reasonable. But, I don't know.
A: At least at the hotel you ’d have a space on your own, you know, so you could get more done.
B: That's definitely a plus. But I have to think about it. Even though it's pretty cheap, it will still end up costing me some money and my budget is pretty tight right now.
