.2019年12月10日托福口语真题 免费试听：【四科联报】托福听说读写临考预测班(针对12月考) T1： which of the following three behaviors would you consider the most negative for kids? Being selfish, saying impolite things or speaking loudly in the public? I would say that speaking loudly might have the most negative impact on kids, as it could be pretty annoying and disturbing to others, and without being aware of this, the kids might have the bad habit of ignoring others feeling in the long term. Imagine that you are watching a movie in a cinema or listening to a concert in a hall, a naughty boy is talking loudly over the phone or chatting with his friends all the way without caring about others, it could be a real nightmare. And this has happened a lot to me, for example last time when I went to see The Dallas Buyers Club, a bunch of kids were talking so loudly from the very beginning of the movie that I could barely catch a word from Ron Woodroof, and all the other viewers got so annoyed and disappointed for that. T2： Do you agree or disagree that to succeed we need to make enemies? Well I disagree with the opinion, coz its true that most of the time we do face a lot of competitors and rivals in order to succeed, but it doesnt mean that we have to make enemies. Lets take a look at LA Lakers, when Kobe Bryant joined Lakers as a Shooting Guard in 1996, he was facing a lot of equally strong competitors like Allen Iverson and Ray Allen, but at that time Shaquille ONeal was already the second-to-none Center in the whole association. At the beginning, Shaquille and Kobe got good cooperation, and Kobe dramatically grew into a most valuable Shooting Guard in the following years, but later on the team was facing a problem： who was the real core and had more say in the court, Shaquille or Kobe? The two players got different ideas on strategy and planning, which caused sharp conflicts between them two. They might not be real enemies, but no doubt that it was hard for them to have any deeper cooperation, which ended up that Shaquille later transferred to Miami Heats. T3： 阅读 标题：Notice on policy change in-room transfer requirements 将原来的学期初接受调换寝室请求改为开学5周后。 原因1：学生中心学期初的事务太多。 原因2：给已经确定寝室的学生一个好的环境。 听力 态度：赞成 原因1：学期初的时间应该留给工作人员处理higher priority 的事务。 原因2：总会有很多move-in and move-out, 很干扰学习，而学期初的学业表现很重要。 The school has announced to change the in-room transfer requirements from the beginning of the semester to five weeks after the registration, since the student center is usually busy with lots of stuff upon registration; and it will be better to provide a good environment for those students that have already chosen their dorms. The boy thinks its a good idea, coz its better for the staff to have more time to handle stuff with higher priority at the beginning of the semester, which is more important and urgent; plus, it could be pretty disturbing and bring a lot of distraction to students since there are frequent move-in and move-out, and the academic performance at the beginning of the semester usually counts a lot. T4： 阅读 标题：Floral Robbing 定义：某些生物吃了果实而没有协助其传播花粉，所以剥夺了其传播机会的现象。 听力： 例子：rocket flower 是一种有很长的tube, 而且有sweet nectar 的花。Humming bird 和bee 同时会吃其nectar, 因为前者有long beak 就会伸到tube 里面，同时会触碰到其pollen, 并协助传播花粉;而bee 只能在花朵的底部咬开一个洞，并不会接触到pollen,所以仅仅享有了nectar, 而没有协助传播花粉。 Floral robbing refers to the phenomenon that some species of organisms fail to help the plant spread its pollen after eating its fruit, and thus deprives the plant of its chances to spread its pollen. For example, rocket flower is a type of flower with a long tube and a sweet nectar. Humming birds and bees both eat the nectars of rocket flowers, and the humming birds will touch the pollen of rocket flowers and help spread the pollen with their long beaks stretching into the tubes; while bees can only bite a hole at the bottom of the flowers without actually touching the pollen, which fail to help spread the pollen of the flowers but simply having the nectars. T5： 问题：学生明天下午有一个生物测验，其好朋友请她帮忙今晚协助预习。虽然是其朋友，但是三番五次在临考前才请求帮忙的行为让她觉得很annoying。 解决方案1：协助她，告诉她这是最后一次 优点1：考试简单，不会对结果有什么影响 缺点1：go over已经会的内容，对自己协助不大 解决方案2：回邮件直接拒绝她，但能够把自己的资料给她让她拷贝 优点2：能够独立复习，效率更高 缺点2：对朋友不利 The girl is having a biology test tomorrow afternoon. But the thing is that one of her friends is asking her to help go over the notes, which is really annoying because shes been asking for such favors over and over again. There are two ways out： she could either lend a hand but make it clear that this is the last time, or she could write an email rejecting her, but let her copy the materials. Though promising to help her again would maintain friendship, if I were in this predicament, Id say no because firstly, it is of ones own responsibility to take care of your study. As the girl mentioned, this is not the first she is asking so big a favor. So its understandable to turn her down. Secondly, test result is a priority for students. Going over the content that she has mastered is meaningless. Besides, the woman can achieve higher efficiency by studying alone. T6： 话题：telecommunicating的好处 要点1：reduce overhead cost, 如individual office space, equipment 等支出 例子1：妹妹的公司去年有25%的员工是在家telecommunicating办公的，减少了约百万美元的成本 要点2：retain valuable employees, no need to train and hire new staff 例子2：还是妹妹的例子，因为要到Texas, 妹妹老公的公司为了留住他，让其telecommunicating, 既保留了有价值的员工，又避免了花钱和精力去培养另一名优秀的员工 The advantages of telecommunication are twofold. To begin with, telecommunicating would reduce overhead cost, individual office space and equipment so to say. For instance, a quarter of the staff from the professors sisters company worked at home. This cut the expenses by millions of dollars. Apart from pecuniary advantage, this method also allows a company to retain valuable employees, which m
