託福作文人物類話題萬能段子
對於不同的口語話題，如何能夠利用一個萬能的段子，搞定一類話題呢?本站爲大家整理了關於人物類的口語話題，幫助大家更好地來提升託福口語水平。下面讓我們來看看這個萬能段子吧!
託福人物類話題萬能段子
人物題要分類討論
我們首先給人物題分分類。
主要分爲兩種：普通人(ordinary people)和名人(celebraties)。
今天，先詳細講講第一種——普通人。
普通人裏面，ETS主要考察五種人，我們直接看一下往年的真題：
1 What characteristics do you think a good neighbor should have?(鄰居)
2 What do you think makes someone a good parent?(家人)
3 Describe a special friend in your childhood.(朋友)
4 Talk about your favorite teacher.(老師)
5 What qualities do you think a good leader should have?(領導)
答題時只需圍繞
一個品質展開
對於一個普通人來說，我們在進行回答的時候只需要圍繞一個品質展開討論，就可以套用到任何普通人的題目中去。
也就是說，準備段子時，普通人的準備原則就是2個形容詞2個例子。
這些品質可以有：hard-working, intelligent, a sense of humor, brave, helpful, a sense of responsibility, knowledgeable等等。
比如，我們選取樂於助人(helpful)這個品質，那麼老師、家長、上司、朋友、鄰居這五類人都可以使用;
例子也可以通用，比如出差的時候照看孩子或者寵物這個例子就可以用於這五類人。
我們下面以剛剛提到的第四題作爲例題來分析一下。
Talk about your favorite teacher. Using specific details and examples to explain why you like her.
?首先第一步，我們需要決定我們的描述對象。
這裏我們選擇英語老師-I really like my English teacher in my high school.
?第二步，我們需要簡單的對這個人進行一下描述。
上面提到的描述的切入點很多，注意只要不跟我們的理由點重合便可。
比如，她教英語已經10年了-she's been teaching English in our high school for ten years.
_小tip：我們對描述對象進行描述的時候，建議使用定語從句，用一個who來引出描述切入點。上面的描述就變成了：I really like my English teacher in my high school who has been teaching English for more than ten years.這樣的回答比你單句的回答要“高大上”很多，能讓考官看到你的英語水平。
_
第三步，我們想一個理由點。
比如我們選擇creativity.這個老師的課很有趣，她比較創新。
於是我們的分論點就變成:
I like her mainly because she's really creative and her class is really interesting.
?第四步，我們開始舉例子或者作比較。
可以講一次有趣的上課經歷，比如老師上課讓我們分組做遊戲，贏了的小組可以贏得獎品;
也可以列舉一下這個老師的上課風格，然後提出另一個老師的上課跟他作對比。
這樣，一個結構完整的回答就準備好了：
Well, personally speaking, I really like my math teacher Linda, mainly because her class is interesting and I could really learn a lot. She divided us into several groups and gave up a lot of time of discuss one specific topic which is cool. And we could do some game in the class like spelling bee and stuff. Most importantly, she assigned us presentation tasks rather than the rigid written assignments which are boring. As a result we can only be in learning math but also practice the communication skill. So she is my favorite teacher.
注：斜體部分是要留意的地方，回答的時候加進去這些內容(情感態度詞、詳細的列舉、邏輯連詞等)，能讓文章聽起來更自然、更有說服力，考官聽了也不會覺得很單薄。
但是!
這樣的回答，如果發音不錯也只能拿到3分(fair);如果發音差一點那就只2分(limited)左右了。
爲什麼?
問題就出在了我一直跟大家強調的ETS口語評分標準之一語言使用(language use)上面。
單詞的選擇沒有問題，沒有使用寫作詞彙，很自然。
但是，語法問題就比較多了。
首先，時態問題。整個文章的展開都是一般說明，不存在過去時態，所以劃線部分的過去時態都應該改成一般現在時態。
其次，短語及各種搭配用法不當。如give up是放棄，這裏只有“給”的意思，所以改成give;of discuss這裏根據句意應該是to discuss;assignment應該是複數形式，和前面的tasks平行;not also沒有用對。
把這些問題都改正一下，其實就是一個滿分的版本了：
Well, my favorite teacher is my English teacher in my high school, who has been teaching English for ten years. I like her mainly because her class is really interesting. I could really learn a lot in the class. I mean, she would spilt us up into several groups and give each group a specific topic to talk about; she also let us take part in in-class games where we could be rewarded, like getting a bar of chocolate or something if we win. We could remember all those English words and grammar while enjoying the games and stuff. Most teachers, however, will do all the talking in the class, which is boring and it seriously makes me feel sleepy.
加粗部分顯示了整個文章的邏輯：簡單又清晰。
下劃線部分能夠看出對人物的描述和對事情的細化。
下面我們再來看另一類常考人物——名人。
這次同樣要給大家講一講：
1.應對此類題的方法
2.針對此類題Fiona常套用的萬能段子。
我們先看一下往年的考試題目：
1 Describe your favorite movies star or singer.
2 Talk about two different singers.
3 Talk about a character in a movie or book you like.
4 Do you agree or disagree with the following statement: the opinions of celebrities such as famous actors or athletes have positive impact on young people.
對於這樣的題目，我們的破題方法和普通人的破題方法一樣。
對於名人的回答一般理由點可以從兩個方面展開：個人成就和個人品質。
? 個人成就：如果是歌手，我們可以談論專輯數目、粉絲數量、是否原創等;如果是演員，我們可以討論電影類型、表演特色、獲得獎項等。
? 個人品質：又迴歸到了普通人的品質中去，如a sense of humor, have responsibilities, easy-going等。
直接上真題： Describe your favorite singer or movie star.
我們先來看一個學生的回答，一起挑挑錯誤：
Jolin is my favorite singer, because she made a lot of beautiful music which cheer me up. Once I got a bad grade in English exam, and I felt sad. And I almost wanted to give up learning English. But when I listened to sound of Jolin, I felt better. The lyric in her sounds was motivated, it taught me that facing the challenge bravely and giving up something was not worthwhile. Then I gained a lot of motivation to study English.
接下來，嚴格根據託福口語評分標準來對這個回答進行評分。
(一)話題陳述 topic statement
優點：回答中有總觀點(Jolin is my favorite singer)，有分論點(because she made a lot of beautiful music which cheer me up.)，也有相應的細節(Once I got a bad grade...)。
缺點：但是因爲這個題目中帶有“describe”，我們的回答結構就應該是MDR.這裏欠缺人物描述。
一般說來，人物題都是需要對人物進行描述的，因爲考官不認識這個人。這道題可以改成：I really like Jolin who is a popular singer in China.
優點：下面再來看細節。學生用了舉例子的方法展開了論證，事件中包含了完整的起因、經過和結果。
缺點：小問題在於“once”的使用，我們在講論證方法的時候就說過once這樣的詞太寬泛，不夠具體。這裏可以改爲：Last month等。
(二)表達 delivery
文章整體邏輯感還不錯，但是分觀點和例子之間銜接不明顯。也就是說分論點說完沒有先解釋一下就進行了舉例子，感覺很生硬。這裏可以加入下文斜體的句子：
Jolin is my favorite singer, because she made a lot of beautiful music which cheer me up. I mean, her songs convey positive energy which could really get me out of tough days. Once I got a bad grade in English exam, and I felt sad...
(三)語言使用 language use
文中一共6句話，卻出現了7處語法或用詞的錯誤。我們一個一個看：
a.主謂不一致。music單數，後面應該是cheers me up
b.名詞單複數。可數名詞之前一定要有相應的冠詞a/an/the;不可數名詞之前什麼都不加或者加some/lots of等可以修飾名詞單複數的詞。所以English exam應改爲English exams; lyric改爲lyrics; motivation改爲the motivation。
c.語義相反。facing the challenge bravely and giving up something...這句學生想表達的是：應勇敢面對困難，半途放棄不值得。但是文中的意思就變成了勇敢面對困難和中途放棄都是不值得的。應改爲：we should face challenges bravely instead of giving it up easily.
vate的用法。當形容物的時候，用motivating。如：the movie is really motivating;表示人得到鼓舞的時候，用motivated。如：I was really motivated.
以上問題改正後，這位學生的回答就變good啦!
除此之外，再給大家分享一個常用的高分回答：
Well, my favorite movie star is Jackie Chan who is one of the most popular action movie stars in China. I like him because he is really an excellent actor and he never use stand-ins to replace him in dangerous scenes. I remember that in one of his action movies called Who I Am, there was one scene where he had to jump from a helicopter into a river. And he did it by himself. I heard that he got hurt because of that. It was really impressive. He really is a star!
