2013年托福口语试题特点总结分析

特点一：1天考两套不同的口语题

2013年8月25号，10月20号，11月9号都考了两套不同的口语独立题。有些同学觉得很恐慌，其实大可不必。因为不管考一套，还是考两套，我们的托福口语备考方针是不变的。

把不同的考题分类，训练我们在80分班和90分班的题目，每一套题反复训练并做录音，相信在考场上你会从容且自信。另外再次提醒诸位考生不要在考场偷听周围其他同学的口语考题。

特点二：以旧题为主

2013年考题很多是以拼盘的形式出现，所以这也给机经的预测带来难度。再次强调的是，所有的预测都是基于我们自己现有的实力的，不可盲目相信机经而忽略题目的训练，这和提高我们的口语是南辕北辙的。

另外从考题来看，2013年考了很多抽象类的话题（政府，环境保护，工作等等），同学们在答题的时候要注意把抽象变具体。比如我们看2013年9月28号这道考题：Describe how people’s lives changed in your country. Explain why this change is important.

本身题目比较抽象，但我们可以举一些例子，比如更多人出国学习；学校要求学生做志愿者活动；学生上课允许带iPAD。这样就可以更简单地完成这道题目。另外题型同学们，切记不要硬套模板而忽略话题的逻辑性。

特点三：刷TPO提高托福综合口语题

这里的刷不是指纯做题而已，做完题需必须听自己录音，是否完成题目的要求。同时可以参照我们给出的参考答案。另外同学们一定记得要做跟读，特别是口语的3,4,6题。一是培养语感，二是我们做了大量地输入，对口语的输出是有很大的帮助的。
