托福口语第一题考试时间如何分配

　　在托福考试中，托福口语第一题的重点还是15秒准备时间中。那么 ，对于我们正在备考的学生来说，应该怎样应对好这样的托福口语第一题考前15秒呢?下面是小编给大家带来的托福口语第一题考试时间如何分配，希望能帮到大家!

　　托福口语第一题考试时间如何分配?阐明例证是重点

　　明确需要表达的例子

　　首先。我们要明确一下"细节"或"例子"所指的是什么。《官方指南》明确要求在第一题中，"You should include specific details and/or examples"(p. 167)去支撑理由，而具体怎么操作，《官方指南》也给出了范例，比如167页的例题："Choose a teacher you admire and explain why you admire him or her. Please include specific examples and details in your explanation."在针对这道题的分析当中，《官方指南》指出在说原因时可以说是这位教师表现出了很独特的个人品质，而后面的细节就应该是对此进行描述或者提出相关证据："occasions when you noticed it, the effect it had on you, and so forth"(p. 168)。由此看来，考生在提供具体细节时不一定是要讲一个故事，也可以是具体的现象、场合或影响。根据官方的这种要求，一般可以用两种方法迅速扩展细节：分层法和列举法。

　　对于托福口语第一题考试时间分配来说，分层法是最为普通也是最为有效的方法。分层法是指先将理由信息缩小到一个更具体的范围，然后再迅速给出细节的方法，这些常用的具体范围可包括"学习"、"生活"、"思想"三方面。一般来讲，理由信息越是抽象越是不容易给出细节。比如说之前2012年1月14日那道人物题--要求考生描述最喜欢花时间相处的人，我们用之前的方法已经很快可以确定对象和理由，但关于人物特征的理由往往会比较抽象，比如有考生会回答这个人是"my father"，原因之一是"He is open-minded"。在这里open-minded的细节如何给出会让考生感到头疼。那么我们先把open-minded这个词分层，比如将其范围缩小到"学习"上，什么样的现象可以证明在"学习"方面是open-mined的呢?这时很多同学就会立即想到"不会因为孩子一次考试不好就责备孩子"这样的实例，而大学生往往也会想到"尊重孩子对自己学习专业的选择"等具体情况。如果将这个词范围缩小到"生活"上，又会有同学马上想到"尊重孩子的兴趣爱好和生活习惯"等等可以举例的角度。照此看来，所谓"思想"上的open-minded也不难猜测了，一般定是与尊重孩子的某一想法有关。同学们在这项练习中往往会发现一个神奇的事实：先分层次，例子竟会如泉水般从头脑中涌出。

　　学会使用列举法阐述

　　列举法则是直接列举出具体的体现，对于托福口语第一题考试时间也是很有帮助的。比如要证明"My father is very talented", 则可以直接摆出以下事实："He read a lot of classical literature works in his youth and he can play three kinds of music instruments"。 如要证明"My father is forward-looking",也可以直接陈述以下事例："My father thought it was a smart move to send me to study abroad, so he taught me English when I was little"。列举的事实可以成为分层后的实例，也可以单独使用。两种方法如果都能够熟练掌握或者融会贯通，势必会帮助考生在黄金15秒之内完成基本的准备工作。

　　这是两名学生在讨论家庭的一篇对话。这篇对话传递了三个信息。我们首先了解了Brian的家庭成员(Brian: Four. My parents, my elder sister and I.);其次，了解了Brian父母亲的职业 (My father works in a computer company, and my mother is a nurse.)，他的父亲在一家计算机公司工作，母亲是护士。最后，我们从对话中得知，Brian的父母亲对他要求很严格：Brian在家的时候，他得自己打扫房间，帮助父母做家务活，晚饭前必须做完家庭作业，晚上九点之前必须回家。这些具体事例有力地证明了Brian的父母对他的严格要求。
