  2017年托福口语分析:动物毛发的好处

  新托福口语task6解析:

  讲座要点总结

  这是一篇生物学讲座,它围绕梳理同种类动物的毛发给群居动物带来的两个好处(two benefits of grooming for social animals)展开话题。

  第一, 梳理毛发助于保护动物不生病(protect animals from disease)。动物生活在野外,会吸引大量的昆虫,有些会传播疾病。但是,梳理毛发会降低得病的风险,这对于群居动物来说,尤其有利,因为疾病扩散得很快,并且群居动物很容易大量滋生像寄生虫这样的小昆虫。例如,当黑猩猩穿过草地,皮肤和毛发上会粘附很多昆虫。但是,它们每天花几个小时彼此梳理毛发,阻止昆虫长时间停留在皮肤上,这样来保护黑猩猩不得病。

  第二, 梳理毛发有利于避免群居动物之间的冲突(help social animals avoid conflict)。当动物梳理对方毛发时,彼此会靠近,并且有肢体上的碰触,这会产生令人愉快的安抚效果,帮助动物放松,减少冲突。例如,两只黑猩猩争抢食物,一只表现地气势汹汹,另一只伸出手,开始梳理对方的毛发,让这只侵略性十足的黑猩猩开始变得冷静,最后避免了打斗。

  托福综合口语词汇分析

  Listen to a conversation between two students

  (woman) Hey, Matt, how’s it going?

  (man) Uh, so so. I’ve got a problem with my housing next semester and I have to make a decision soon.

  (woman) What’s going on?

  (man) Well, I lived in the dormitory, and I’ve got a great roommate for the last two year, but he’s moving off campus next semester.

  (woman) Oh! So?

  (man) So now I have to make a big decision. You know, about my living arrangements.

  (woman) Well, couldn’t you just get a new roommate? Doesn’t the university automatically assign someone to take his place?

  (man) Yeah, they do. The thing is, I am concerned about sharing a room with somebody new. There could be problems, like, what if he wanted to go to sleep at ten o’clock? I am used to studying late at night and that would throw off my whole study schedule.

  (woman) I guess that’s possible. But it is convenient to be on campus, easy to get to class and all. What else could you do?

  (man) Well, My roommate found a house off campus with some other friends and there’s another bedroom available. I could have it, but I have to let them know by the end of the week.

  (woman) A house sounds like a good ...

托福口语练习常见错误总结分析

03-05

标签: 托福口语分析

 

  在托福口语练习中,大家经常会犯一些小错误,错句不断,种类繁多,出国留学网托福频道(toefl.xdf.cn)为大家总结了一些常见错误,希望和大家分享一下,作为警示,避免以下错误。

  1. I very like it

  I like it very much.

  2. 这个价格对我挺合适的。

  The price is very suitable for me.

  The price is right.

  Note:suitable(合适的、相配的)最常见的用法是以否定的形式出现在告示或通知上,如:下列节目儿童不宜。The following programme is not suitable for children在这组句子中用后面的说法会更合适。

  3. 你是做什么工作的呢?What’s your job?

  Are you working at the moment?

  Note:what’s your job这种说法难道也有毛病吗?是的。因为如果您的谈话对象刚刚失业,如此直接的问法会让对方有失面子,所以您要问:目前您是在上班吗?Are you working at the moment?接下来您才问:目前您在哪儿工作呢?Where are you working these days?或者您从事哪个行业呢?What line of work are you in?顺带说一下,回答这类问题时不妨说得具体一点,不要只是说经理或者秘书。

  4. 用英语怎么说?How to say?

  How do you say this in English?

  Note:How to say是在中国最为泛滥成灾的中国式英语之一,这决不是地道的英语说法。同样的句子有:请问这个词如何拼写?How do you spell that please?请问这个单词怎么读?How do you pronounce this word?

  5. 明天我有事情要做。I have something to do tomorrow?

  Sorry but I am tied up all day tomorrow. 用I have something to do来表示您很忙,这也完全是中国式的说法。因为每时每刻我们都有事情要做,躺在那里睡大觉也是事情。所以您可以说我很忙,脱不开身:I’m tied up.还有其他的说法:I’m afraid I can’t make it at that time. I’d love to, but I can’t, I have to stay at home。

  6. 我没有英文名。I haven’t English name.

  I don’t have an English name.

  Note:许多人讲英语犯这样的错误,从语法角度来分析,可能是语法功底欠缺,因为have在这里是实义动词,而并不是在现在完成时里面那个没有意义的助动词。所以,这句话由肯定句变成否定句要加助动词。
