　　口語部分

　　共有六道題，基本沿襲新託福官方指南中的風格。首先是兩道 independent questions:

　　1. Choose an object you like and explain why it is of special value to you. Please include specific examples and details in your explanation.

　　2. Some people tend to judge a person on the basis of first observation. Some people believe it takes a long time to know a person well. Which approach to knowing people do you think is better and why?

　　點評：這兩道獨立口語題的難度最低，也最適合提前準備範本，減低臨場難度。

　　比如第一題總是問你喜歡的一個XX是什麼，你喜歡XX的原因。可以使用的摸板如下：well, as for me, I definitely believe that the XX I like the most is AAA. The reason is rather simple: first, I choose AAA because it is of great importance to me. You know, it____________. Second, AAA also means a lot to my family. It does turn out to be great because it ____________. Third, AAA helps a lot to build up my future. It ______. 基本上45秒也只夠你用中等語速把以上內容背一遍。所以，本類題型做不好是完全沒有理由的。

　　然後是兩道integrated listening/reading/speaking questions:

　　3. 先是一則小新聞：學校要建一座art building .原因是老的藝術樓不能適應新的需求了，並且其他大學也都建立了自己的art building.

　　然後是男女對話。男子基本是屬於捧角，說的內容不重要。關鍵是牢牢掌握女子的話：她認為it is time! 正應該建這樣一個大樓。原因有二：一是舊的藝術樓太dim/dark. 好的藝術樓必須有bright and large windows. Because artificial light makes it difficult to catch the real color. 二是another university across the town already has a splendid art building and many prospective students choose to go to that school for this reason.

　　問題是：the woman expresses her opinion of the university plan. State her opinion and explain the reasons she uses for holding that opinion.

　　4. 先是一則quotation from an advertising textbook. 介紹一種廣告界的不誠實現象：quoting out of context. 就是斷章取義，歪曲別人原意來吹捧自己。然後是一則教授的課堂講話：舉了一個movie review 的例子:The movie producer quoted a very prominent movie critic's review that the movie is “delightful”, in their local newspaper advertisement. Many people went for this movie because they believed that critic thought highly of this movie. But actually, the critic thought very negatively about this movie and it was the worst she had ever watched. She only meant that the movie actress was “delightful”, not the movie!

　　問題是：explain how the example used by the professor illustrate quoting out of context.

　　接下來是兩道integrated listening/speaking questions:

　　5. 一個男學生抱怨：I erased my final draft of research paper from my computer accidentally, but it is due by midnight!

　　女學生支招：solution one: call the technical department. They always have a way to recover your file. It is true that they are closed but they offer an emergency number. The only problem is that they charge extra fees for service out of regular hours.

　　Solution two: call the professor in the morning and ask for an extension by explaining your situation. The problem is that the professor may deduct a few points from the man's grade, while the man really wants to do well in his assignment.

　　問題是：

　　The students discuss two possible solutions to the man's problem. Describe the problem. Then state which of the two solutions you prefer and explain why.

　　6. Lecture in a science and technology class: the female professor is talking about that in the long long human history, inventions and innovations always happen in one of the two ways: intentionally and accidentally.

　　First, she quotes an example of intentional innovation: bi-focus glasses. Before the bi-focus glasses were invented, people had to carry two pairs of glasses sometimes and this was very inconvenient. Thus, bi-focus glasses were intentionally invented to solve this problem.

　　Second, she takes another example of accidental innovation: the discovery of X-ray. When people first encountered X-ray in the lab, they had no idea of what this discovery meant, or where to put this discovery into application.

　　問題是：

　　Using points and examples from the talk, explain the two ways of innovation presented by the professor.

　　點評：複合類題型的解題關鍵在於作筆記。然後結合筆記進行複述。只要能把關鍵要點摘出，並把要點插入我們課堂上總結的針對每道題特點給出的摸板，就能達到很理想的分數。所謂“口語很爛，但是口語分數很高”在有考官的雅思口試中基本是不可能的，但是在題目類型固定，特點明確且考官缺位的託福考試中是極為可能的。提示：多用簡單短句！只求清晰複述材料內容即可。

　　作文部分

　　共有兩題。第一題是一道independent writing task. 先有一篇四段的文章，3分鐘閱讀時間。文章提綱如下：1. chimpanzees has similar ability of human being in learning language.

　　2. chimps 可以掌握 vocabulary

　　3. chimps 可以掌握 grammar

　　4. chimps 可以與researchers carry out a simple but genuine conversation with extended hours.

　　然後是一篇聽力段子，對閱讀文章的內容逐條駁斥。提綱如下：

　　1． Chimps' learning ability is by no means close to that of human beings.

　　2． Chimps can only pick up a few Yerkish words after researchers' intentional repeating. While human children can learn more than one language by simply listening.

　　3． Chimps only know to put a few words together and this can not be called “grammar”.

　　4． The so called “conversation” is normally dominated by the researchers by keeping asking questions, while chimps only do the responding part.

　　問題是：summarize the points made in the lecture, being sure to specifically explain how they cast doubt on points made in the reading passage.

　　最後是一道independent writing task.

　　問題是：可再生能源renewable sources of energy,(sun, water ,wind)很快就會取代化石燃料（fossil fuel, such as gas, oil and coal ）.

　　For this task, you will write an essay in response to a question that asks you to state, explain, and support your opinion on an issue. Typically, an effective essay will contain a minimum of 300words.
