托福口语科技类话题5个万能理由分享, 综合独立题型都能用,今天小编给大家带来了托福口语科技类话题5个万能理由分享 综合独立题型都能用,希望能够帮助到大家,下面小编就和大家分享,来欣赏一下吧。
1、convenient
2、efficiency
科技发明也让我们的生活变得更加便利,比如以前人类想要获得知识需要查很多很多的书籍,但是现在只要在网络上一搜索就可以找到自己想要的答案。科技确实让我们的学习和工作变得更加高效,便利。
3、健康
健康可以分为身体健康和精神健康。任何新事物的出现都是一把双刃剑,有好的地方就一定会有坏的地方。科技的发明在提高人类的工作效率的同时,也对人们的健康造成了一定的影响.
4、personal relationship
科技最终要在人类的世界中应用,只要有人,就会有人际关系,科技在实际生活中也会影响人与人之间的关系
5、money
钱涵盖了我们生活中的方方面面,科技产品的出现也不例外。如果想要使用科技产品,首先需要购买,而且科技产品的出现也促使了很多物品进行价格的调整。
I maintain/suppose/presume that
除了think这种老旧的说法,我们可以用 maintain/suppose/presume 这几个词来替换。这些词都比think、believe 要高大上、听上去有质感,比如:
I presume the director has already heard the news.
我觉得主管已经知道这件事了吧。
I maintain that all workers should be treated eqaully.
我认为所有的工人都应该被平等对待。
I suppose I saw us and our relationship as aging together , rather like a wine.
随着年龄的增长,我认和我之间的关系慢慢地融洽了好多,就像是一瓶好酒,越陈越香。
I would say
当然啦,口语中,还可以更轻松些,直接说成“I would say”,意思是“我认为……”
I would say it's almost time to hold him to that promise.
我认为已经差不多是时候让他兑现那个承诺了。
If you ask me......
另外一种比较口语的说法,就是“if you ask me”,翻译成中文,约等于“要我说”。
If you ask me, there's something a bit queer going on.
要是你问我的话,我觉得有点儿不太对劲。
In my humble opinion......
这个表达算是中等常见吧,比较文绉绉,适用于比较正式的演讲或书信中。
这个短语有点故作低调,欲说还休的感觉,虽然是humble opinion,其实一般用这个短语时,说话的人对自己观点其实是相当自信的。
这相当于中文里的谦称,类似于古代大臣所说的:依臣愚见的感觉。
In my humble opinion, he will win the election.
依我拙见, 他将在选举中获胜。
from the way I see things
这个短语算是比较高阶的说法了。它的妙处是通过视角来表达个人看法。意思是“从我看事情的方式来说”,即“从我的角度来看”。
Well, the way I see it, when you're in a place you forget what it looks like from the outside.
从我的角度来看,有时候真是当局者迷。
For my part
For my part意思是“就我而言”。
For my part, I apologise for any offence caused by my actions yesterday.
①If a mayor is to be selected from the following candidates, who all have no political experience but are successful in their own field, which one do you think is the best candidate for mayor? (2017.10.28 Task1 )
A university professor
A businessman
A doctor
如果要从以下人选中挑一个去当市长,他们在各自领域很成功,但都没有从政经验,你觉得哪个是最好的候选人?
②What is the best background for a government leader? (2017.12.10 Task 1)
Military
Business
Law
这其实是经典的职业类考察,只是上升到了政府类话题。为了答好这两个题,没有形容词积累是不现实的。难道我们跟考官说,“我选商人,因为商人很有钱,有钱的话……”
a can-do spirit/attitude 勇于尝试的精神或态度
meaning: willing to try new things and expecting that they will be successful
eg.Business people usually have the can-do spirit, so they are willing to make a difference.
down-to-earth 务实的;切合实际的
meaning: sensible and practical in a way that is helpful and friendly.
近义表达:both feet on the ground,双脚都在地上的,也就是“务实的”
这个词字面意思是“脚踩在地上”,引申为务实、切合实际,而且比较能接地气去做事情。
eg. Business people's down-to-earth manner matches the required quality of a good leader.
trailblazer 开拓者
meaning: a person who is the first to do or discover sth and so makes it possible for others to follow
近义词:innovator-革新者,pioneer-先驱
筚路蓝缕,白手起家的商人,都得有点“敢为天下先”精神,这个词就是强调了开路先锋的意思。trail-路,blaze-熊熊燃烧,加个er尾缀表示人,就是把荆棘都烧了,辟出新路的人。
eg. Thanks to so many trailblazers, many barriers have been brought down.
多亏了开拓者,许多的障碍都被打破了
get the best out of sb. 知人善用
企业家、商人都需要和人合作,只有充分使每个员工或者合作对象发挥最大价值,才能更高效。一个政府,不可能靠一个领袖完成所有事务,只有知人善用才能高效管理。
eg. Managers know how to get the best out of employees.
money-conscious 重视金钱的
很多后缀来自于单词,比如-ful来自于full,conscious这个词,“对……有意识的”,可以跟在很多名词后,表示“关注……的”,比如health-concious,“有健康意识的,关注健康的”;money-conscious,“关注金钱的”。
铜臭味对于政府管理不一定是坏事,商人在乎钱,所以会去推动经济发展,当然有利于城市各个方面。
eg. Business people are money-conscious, and they will try everything they can to boost the economy. And certainly, it will benefit the city in so many ways.
感兴趣的同学可以参考TPO52的第三题,有关于business leader的重要意义。课后作业,练习一下下面这个题:
Task1:If your school wants to invite someone to give a speech, which one do you think the university should invite?(2015.12.12)
• a successful businessman
• an awarded scientist
• a government leader
甚至还有下面这样可怕的怪题:
If you have opportunities to do something for good causes, which of the following would you choose? (2017.12.16 Task1)如果你有机会做好事,你会选哪个?
A.Distributing meals for needy people 给有需要的人分配食物
B.Helping children build playground帮助儿童建造玩乐的场所
C.Seeing people in hospital 去医院探望病人
套路一:必要性 The Need
必要性,就是有必要做某件事。换句话说,就是给服务对象带来的好处。
比如:2016年1月24日这个超级老题:
Which of the following community service would you be more interested in doing and explain why? 以下哪个社区服务你最感兴趣,为什么?
Cleaningthe city park 清扫公园
Plantingflowers and trees 种植花草树木
你觉得哪个最有必要?
我估计是第二个,种点花花草草。试想北京的雾霾天,人们烦躁的心情……这件事情已经迫在眉睫了!
所以答题思路如下:Benefits of planting flowers and trees 种植花草树木的好处
我们有必要去种植花草树木,因为这可以……
Improve air quality/Reduce pollution
Prevent erosion
Social well-being: reduce pressure, violence
套路二:可行性(我,事情)The Feasibility
还是拿上面那个题打比方,清扫公园、种植花草树木、建自行车道,这三个选项哪个更可行其实也是一目了然。比如说,扫了公园只能解决短时间的问题,于事无补;而建自行车道根本不现实,且不说北京从北五环到南五环会有多远,再看现在自行车道需要的设备,都对我们不可能。
所以,还是种花草树木比较doable- 可行的
答题范文一则:
Comparing the three options, planting trees and flowers is certainly the most doable for me. I'll just need to dig a shallow hole, place the tree inside and then fill the planting hole with soil. That's about it.But say I am going to build the bicycle lane, how am I supposed to find all the tools and materials that I need? Not to mention how long the lane could be. Like Beijing, it's more than 2 hours'drive from north to the south. I couldn't just build 5 meters of bicycle lane, right?
比较这三个选项,对我来说,种花草树木肯定是最可行的。我只要挖一个浅浅的坑,把树放到里面,然后用土填上坑就好了。但是假设我要去造自行车道,我怎么能找得到需要的工具和材料呢?更别提自行车道有多长了。比如北京吧,从北到南开车要两个小时。我总不能只造5米的车道,对吧?
必备句型:
….is the most doable for me
… 对我最为可行
That's about it.
情况就是那样。
Say I am going to…
假设我要做……
下面,我们再回头看看开篇那个难题,利用【必要性】和【可行性】来开开脑洞,运用下两个套路:
If you have opportunities to do something for good causes, which of the following would you choose? (2017.12.16Task1)
A.Distributing meals for needy people
B.Helping children build playground
C.Seeing people in hospital
哪个最必要?
其实都可以说哦:
如果选择A,就说他们很饿,很可怜;
如果选B,就说马路很危险不适合孩子玩耍,或者说社区往往没有专门供孩子玩的地方;
哪个最可行呢?
这个题应该是C最为可行,其他两个方案都需要人力物力,建造游乐场所甚 至还需要申请地皮,不太现实。
所以就可以选定说三了。
所以我总结一下,考场上先考虑可行性,然后再思考必要性,肯定能帮你解决志愿服务题。
做一个作业吧:
Whichof the following library volunteer would you want to choose to do?2017.11.18 Task 1
Helping people find the right material
Reading to kids
Keeping bookshelves organized
请君思考,哪个最为可行?哪个最有必要?我想你已经有答案了吧!
