托福机经:2013年3月17日托福口语考题解析

  1. Which of following study methods do you think is the most effective? Having discussions, repeating class materials or taking a lot of notes. Give specific examples and details in your explanation.

  参考答案

  I prefer to have discussions with classmates out of the three options for the following reasons. First of all, students get to exchange ideas when involved in discussions. We can learn from each other new ideas and perspectives. It's interesting to see there are so many different ways or approaches toward a single problem. It's mind blowing sometimes to see how differently people work. Also, it's fun to have discussions with other students. We get to challenge each other and have debates. When studying by myself, my mind is usually very limited and I get bored easily.

  2. Some people prefer to sit in the front of a classroom during a lecture; others prefer to sit in the back during a lecture. Which do to think is better? Explain your response in details and examples.

  参考答案

  I prefer to sit in front of the classroom during lectures for the following reasons. First of all, this way I can be closer to my professors. From experiences I can safely say that when I'm sitting closer to the professor, I have better concentration, and I can focus more. Students who sit in the front get more chances to interact with teachers. When there's something I'm not sure of, I'll just raise my hand and the professor can see me very easily and address my questions. Also, sitting in the front helps me to see the projection or overheads better. This means I don't have to squint my eyes when taking notes which gives me headaches.
