5月6日托福口语真题解析2017年5月6日托福口语考题回忆Task 1 The university decides to remodel the dormitory and add a new space to it. Which space do you recommend to add in your dormitory?1.Cafe2.Study room3.Game roomSample Answer:I suppose most of us would like to have a new study room. There are two reasons.直接明确,表明我支持哪一个观点,有两个支持论点。
The first reason is it can help us study. Nowadays, GPA becomes more and more important for college students. Good grades can help us in getting an ideal job after graduation.First是逻辑词,让论述结构清晰,简介明了地引出第一个原因,举一个细节例子——学习好了有利于找工作。
The second reason is during the final exams, an additional study place will be necessary for us. At that time there will be crowds of people getting up early to study in our library. It will be difficult to have a seat in there. So if we can have an additional study room in our dormitory, it will be much more convenience when our library is full of people.Second和First一样,作为逻辑词使论述层次更清晰。
5月6日托福写作真题解析

5月6日托福写作真题解析2017年05月06日托福写作考题回忆综合阅读:美国的一种叫auklet的海鸟出现了die-off的情况。
1.可能是由于在发生die-off之前的夏天,auklet的数量激增,导致对于食物的竞争加强,有些auklet就饿死了。
2.Auklet可能接触sea stars的时候,感染了sea stars病毒,导致Auklet死亡。
3.海水温度升高,导致zooplankton的质量下降,而Auklet是以zooplankton为食的,所以受到了影响。
听力:以上列举的没有一个能够解释auklet的die-off.1.竞争可能会导致一些auklet的数量减少,但是不会导致这么多auklet的死亡,并且食物和auklet之前的平衡没有办法修复。
2.如果是少了病毒感染的话,那么auklet会带有相应的病毒,但是研究发现,死去的auklet上面并没有病毒存在。
3.其他的一些以zooplankton为食的动物没有发生死亡现象。
为什么只有auklet出现了这个情况,这说不通。
Sample Answer:The writer presents three reasons to explain why auklets in America died off. However, the professor demonstrates a different idea that these reasons are all unconvincing.To question the first reason presented in the passage that auklets might die from starvation because of their large population and the relative little food, the professor points out that the balance between the number of a species and the food availability could actually be balanced. Therefore, even we assume that auklets would need to compete with each other for food because the number of them had increased in the previous summer and some of them didn’t win that competition and died, the food then would be enough for those auklets that had remained alive. In this case, theywould not completely die out.Another important point showed in the reading material is that auklets might be infected by some deadly virus from sea stars. But the professor presents a conflicting idea that scientist didn’t find this kind of virus in auklets’body. It is strange that they got infected by virus but didn’t had any in their body. The second reason in the reading passage is wrong again.Finally, the professor states that zooplankton still could not be the reason for auklets’die-off. Because there are other sea animals that also feed on zooplankton but they are not affected. This challenges the third theory made by the writer who says that the drop of zooplankton’s quality caused the die-off of auklets.(248 words)独立Do you agree or disagree: It is impossible to always be completely honest with your friends?Sample Answer:题目分析:同意不同意类中的单一论述题。

2017 年05 月06 日托福考试真题解析托福阅读Passage one主题:Photography and Pictorial Weekly 内容回忆:第一段描述electrotype 这种新兴科技使得杂志能够更快的被打印出来,并使得Pictorial weekly 这种型号较大的新闻杂志发展起来,该杂志往往有很多的illustration 插画。
第二段描述使得pictorial weekly 发展起来的第二个关键因素就在于photography。
daguerreotype 这种早期的相片的出现使得早起相片里常见的人像广为流传,能让艺术家在离肖像模特十分远的地方也能够按照杂志里的图片做出画作。
第三段说明照片对于杂志的影响不单单在于提供了插画的主题上,还使得艺术家在创作插画时会模仿早期相片的感觉。
因为人们觉得,比起艺术作品,相片更能够传递真实感。
第五段说,插画的主题从comic 变得更为formality. 虽然comic 的倾向仍然在部分杂志里有所保留,但是新的趋势是更为注重节制,礼节(propriety ).词汇题:1.Plentiful- abundant2.Emergence-development3.Routinely-often4.Distinctive-characteristicPassage two主题:Effects of Predation on distribution of species 内容回忆:本文共四段。
第一段讲了有实验表明当被引入了predator 的时候,prey 就会被predator 捕食殆尽,然而因为是人为条件下的结果,我们有理由认为在自然环境中并非如此。
因为predator 会失去自己的food resource 之一,所以会选择将prey 保留到可持续的水平。
第2 段说明了捕食影响物种分布的第一种方式是prey switching。
在某种prey 比较少时,就会转向其它的猎物。

Sample Answer:Both the reading passage and the lecture discuss the functions of the shafts found in the Great Pyramid. However, the lecture questions the accuracy of the theories proposed in the reading one by one.In the first place, whereas the author argues that the shafts are built for ventilation, the speaker refutes this for two reasons. Firstly, unlike the higher shafts, the shafts of the lower chamber are unable to reach the outer wall, which makes it impossible to bring in fresh air. Secondly, since the four shafts are quite similar, they are likely to have the same function. But in this case, only two of them are capable of bringing in fresh air, while the others are not. For these reasons, the lecturer asserts that these shafts are not for ventilation.In the second place, the lecturer discounts the reading passage’s claim that there’s a link between the shafts and the alignment of stars. He goes on to say that theconnection between stars and gods didn’t appear until the later period of ancient Egypt. Nevertheless, the pyramid was built during the earlier years and the star alignment theory simply didn’t exist at that time. This directly contradicts the reading passage which states that the shafts are built for religious reasons.The final point on which the author and the lecturer disagree with each other is whether the shafts are built in order to help king’s soul travel to afterlife. The reading makes the claim that these shafts are likely to be passageways for the king’s soul. In contrast, the lecturer contends it doesn’t necessarily mean the passageway should be an actual shaft. He gives an example of other pyramids building symbolic passageways for their dead kings, which indicates that ancient Egyptians believed souls could easily cross through walls and did not need any actual passageway. This goes against the idea in the reading passage.(315 words)独立Which one of the following values is the most important to share with a young child(5-10 years old)?1.being helpful2.Being honest3.Being well organized解题思路:选being helpful1.可以帮助到他人,获得他人的认可2.自己同时获得成就感,培养正确价值观3.这个年龄段的小孩很难做到完全照顾自己,良好的组织能力对他们而言有些难度Sample Answer:Childhood is the golden age of people’s lives because it is a time of physical growth and great leaps forward intellectually and socially. Being helpful, honest and well organized are values that parents and educators try to instill in children from a very young age, but I would argue that among these values, honesty would be the most important one to share with a young child.First and foremost, honesty is the cardinal principle of conducting oneself. Imparting honesty into children can hold them accountable for their behavior and teach them how to distinguish right from wrong from a young age. Unlike adults, children are normally unaware of the consequence of telling lies, and teaching them the value of honesty can help them realize how to act with integrity and confidence. For example, children who are conscious of being honest are more likely to contribute positively to the whole society in the future and will never defraud their clients and customers in workplace. In contrast, students who are dishonest may plagiarize other people’s thesis and fail to achieve success even though they perform well at school.Besides, being honest can help us win the trust and respect from others, even from those who are unfamiliar with us. It is widely known that childhood is an important period for children to learn lifelong social and emotional skills they need. Therefore, making them capable of being honest helps children learn how to behave in a more socially acceptable way. Just imagine, an honest child always gets along well with everyone at school, with a bunch of good friends around him. When he grows up, people are more willing to collaborate with him as well as to give him a hand when he gets into troubles. On the contrary, a dishonest child will be looked down upon by others and be regarded as a public enemy.Undeniably, being helpful and well organized are both important qualities, which do benefit children in their own way. The young generation can learn responsibility and find enjoyment in helping others. But the fact is, 5 to 10-year-old children are too young to be able to take care of themselves, not to speak of giving a hand to other people. As for the organizational skill, it just makes little sense since kids of that age are naturally active and naughty. Overemphasis on children’s organizational ability would have an adverse impact on their growth. If children are required to be well organized at any time, their creativity and imagination will be stifled.To sum up, I’m not saying that being helpful and well-organized are of no use, but compared to the importance of honesty, these two values can be crossed off the priority list.(456 words)。

第 2 段产生热量的是少部分器官,比如人体中的chest,abdomen,brain 产生的热量就占所有热量的72%。
第3 段运动的时候,会产生更多的热量,要比平时多上十多倍的热量,主要是肌肉产生。
第4 段说的内部温度也不是都一样的,inner 的温度保持恒定,但是器官直接也有温度差,可能会有0.5 度的差别。
第5,6 段主要讲热量是怎么传输到表面的。

讲座主要介绍了如何保存油画,光对于画作会产生伤害。首先介绍了紫外线 (ultraviolet)因为波长短所以能量大,会破坏颜料里的有机物,就像太阳晒伤皮肤一样, 所以可以采取过滤这种光线的装置来保护油画。然后介绍了红外线(infrared)会产生热 量,导致周围环境温度变高,颜料和木头画框开裂从而造成破坏。但是我们必须要有光来 欣赏作品,所以伤害无法避免。后续又说到如果没有光线照射的话,油画会有 yellowish ,smoky 的 appearance,且一面有光线照射和一面没有光线照射的油画,光的破 坏作用在两面的对比很明显。
名师解析:
关于校园活动的话题是托福听力必考内容之一,考生在备考时应注意分场景把常见的 话题梳理一遍,如本次考试涉及的社团话题,应重点听清楚社团想做的活动内容和目的为 何。同时提到较为学术的内容时,需要更加细致的记笔记,如本文中提到另一位教授的诗 歌风格需要认真记录。最后提醒各位考生,对话部分的主旨题偶尔会出现在文章的靠后位 置,关注学生是否提到信号词“我来是为了…”不要盲目的选择开头内容。

2017年托福口语真题分析及范文

2.252017年01月07日托福口语考题回忆Task 1The university wants to provide student more entertainments and three choices provided below, which do you prefer and why.l A theater performance by the student actorsl A concert provided by professional musicianl A lecture from a professorSample Answer:Well, as a student, I will choose a theater performance by the student actors. For one thing, this kind of activ ity will improve their cooperation skills. To be more specific, atheater performance includes the whole process of organizing, participating, and promoting an event. Whether the student director or the actor take the responsibility to achieve his/her duty, so this is a great opportunity for them to learn how to deal with other people. Moreover, a performance could greatly inspire them to be more creative. Imean, in order to make a good show, students may have lots of difficulties to cope with, so they have to be flexible to face any emergency. As a result, they may come up with lots of new ideas to make it. Because of these two reasons, I believe this is the best choice. (140 words)Task 2Friends may disagree with each other, and still maintain friendship. Do you agree with or disagree with this idea, why?Sample Answer:Of course I agree with this idea. Firstly people are bound to be different. We have various family background as well as education background even though we are friends. So it is quite naturally that there come up different ideas toward one problem. For example I like watching movie in the movie theatre while my best friend Amy hate sitting in the dark place. But I never require her to go with me; we are still very close friends. Also, the friend who holds a different attitude with me sometimes could inspire me to think from another way. Maybe a very sharp discussion can lead me to an inspiring idea. After all, the experiences and knowledge of one person is limited. For me, I like the friend who are differ from me. (132 words)Task 3阅读标题:Create a Student Magazine原因1: Students spend a lot of time on their paper, and some of them have high quality. So we need a magazine to publish those good quality papers.原因2: Publish students’ paper can share information about their academic achievement and provide them confidence听力态度:Approval原因1:There are a lot of paper, we can select some of them to publish on a magazine. This will be an encouragement for the students.原因2:Other students will be able to find useful material from these paper and they can learn how to organize their own paper.Sample Answer:The student in the letter suggests that school should create a Student Magazine because they need a magazine to publish those good quality papers written by students and in this way students can share information about their academic achievement and provide them confidence. The man in the conversation totally agrees with this idea because for one thing, there are a lot of papers for them to select some of them to publish on a magazine, especially those good quality ones. This will be a great encouragement for the students. For another thing, other students will be able to find useful materials from these papers so they can learn how to organize their own paper. Considering those benefits, the man thinks it is a good idea. (125 words)Task 4阅读标题:Life Stage of Animal Migration定义:In different life stages, some animal need to migrate to various places to live, because of the diet and safety. When they are young, they may safe and have enough food in the original place. However, if they grow older, the original place may have threads from the predators and the food may be insufficient.听力例子:Anglerfish lay eggs in deep sea. Then, the eggs will float to the surface of the sea, where the younger Anglerfish can enjoy enough food and sunlight. But when they grow older, they predator will be a great threat to them, so they will migrate to the deep sea. Sample Answer:Life Stage of Animal Migration means in different life stages, some animal need to migrate to various places to live because of the diet and safety. When they are young, they may safe and have enough food in the original place while they may migrate to other places when their lives are threatened by their predators. The professor takesanglerfish as an example. The anglerfish lay eggs in deep sea. Then the eggs will float to the surface of the sea where the younger anglerfish can enjoy enough food and sunlight. But when they grow older, their predator will be a great threat to them, which means the original place which means that the food may be insufficient for them to live on. As a result, they will migrate to the deep sea to survive. (135 words)Task 5问题:The girl moved to a new apartment, and the window glass was broken when her friend help her hanging a picture to the wall. They need to replace the glass, but it is expensive.解决方案1:Her friend and she share the cost of window glass.优点1:it is not much money if they share the cost. Only 50 dollar each.缺点1:Her friend came to help her and does not break it purposely. She feels it’s unfair for her friend.解决方案2:She will cover the whole cost.优点2:it will be fair for her friend and she will feel better.缺点2:100 dollar is expensive for her.Sample Answer:The woman‟s problem is that she just moved to a new apartment, but the window glass was broken when her friend help her hanging a picture on the wall. They need to replace the glass, but it is quite expensive. There are two solutions, the first is that she and her friend could split the cost of window glass which is only 50 dollar for each person but she feels it‟s unfair for her friend. The other solution is that she will cover the whole cost but 100 dollar is expensive to her. I prefer she take the second solution for sure. For one thing, her friend didn‟t break the window purposely and it was a great f avor that the friend helped her. Moreover, money is not a big problem comparing with her friend‟s kindness and maybe she could do some part-time job to make the money back which is not that difficult. (153 words)Task 6话题:Business Networks要点1:We are in a business network. Different people engage in various occupations. They have different knowledge and skills.例子1:A woman running a restaurant may have friends or customers engaged in various occupations. When she needs an accountant, she will find one from her business network. She will trust more on the accountant whom she knew than those she does not know.要点2: In a business network, we not only trust the people from our own networks, we also trust the persons who are recommended by the people we knew.例子2: The women will introduce one of her friends to another, who may need the professional help but does not know a person in his/her own network.Sample Answer:In the lecture, the professor mainly talks about two aspects of business networks. The first point is people may have different knowledge and skills from business networksbecause they engage in various occupations. For example, a woman running a restaurant may have friends or customers engaged in various occupations. When she needs an accountant, she will find one from her business network. She will trust more on the accountant whom she knew than those she does not know. The second point is that in a business network, we not only trust the people from our own networks, we also trust the persons who are recommended by the people we knew. Also take the woman as an example, she will introduce one of her friends to another, who may need the professionalhelp but does not know a person in his/her own network. (142 words)2017年01月14日托福口语考题回忆Task 1You will need to accomplish an assignment to do a presentation. Which will you choose?1. Act out a scene from a play(with a partner)2. Explain your review of a novel you recently you read3. Read a selection of poemSample Answer:Among the three presentation choices, I would choose to act out a play with my partner. As a literature major, I have been deeply entranced by dramas, accordingly, I'd rather consider acting as a form of amusement than regarding it as a job. To illustrate, I remember the first year in college, I made a rather unusual decision to deliver a performance on Shakespeare's Drama-Hamlet at New Year‟s party instead of participating in student‟s choir in singing. As a result, the decision paid off since I was granted an acting position at city's drama club, as a reward for my authentic and impressive performance. Ever since then, acting has become part of my daily ritual for my passion and adoration for it never dies out. (125 words)Task 2Someone choose to work in a small company or organization with a few workers. Others prefer to work in a large company or organization with thousands of employees. Which do you think is better?Sample Answer:I am in favor of working in a large corporation rather than a small firm because large corporations often are ruled and governed by stable regulations whereas small firm often undergoes management transformations in which causing employees time to adjust and adapt to the new leaderships. Take my brother Jim as an illustration, he used to work as a high-tech personal in a petite firm which was specializing in virtual reality technology. Initially he was so passionate about the job that he barely took any weekends off for his own pleasure, he was so determined that he'd be promoted with such exceptional skills and professionalism. But he was wrong, after a few years, he was spiritually and psychically worn out because the management seats were constantly going through changes and his promotions were never brought up on the agenda because the new supervisors always bring their own personals to take charge in company affairs. Consequently, Jim had no choice but to quit the old firm and join an elite corporation that has business dealings nationwide, his excellent work has soon to be spotted by the management and he was granted promotion in a short term. Therefore, I'm inclined to listen to my brother Jim and work in a large company with stable leadership. (213 words)Task 3阅读标题:Weekend Art Workshop原因1:This will provide students whose majors are not art a relaxed environment to learn art without concerning about grade.原因2:This will give art-majored students more opportunities to practice.听力态度:不同意原因一:学习目前已经有艺术类选修课程,是不评分的。

5月托福口语考试真题

5月托福口语考试真题2017年5月托福口语考试真题2017年许多考生已经报考过托福考试,也还有不少考生还在默默奋斗,为托福考试备考。
下面,店铺整理了一道2017年5月的`托福口语考试真题,供大家参考。
新托福口语Task2题目:Do you agree or disagree with following statement: it is okay for people to use surgery to change their appearance. Please include details and examples in your explanation.新托福口语Task2解析:Task2是去年7月的一道新题。
虽然说新题,但是对于整容的话题,大家应该都不陌生了。
关于二选一的答题方法,之前有说过,所以这里就不赘述了。
同意整容:a.有些人天生有缺陷,比如兔唇,或后天毁容,整容无可厚非。
b.所有人都有爱美的权利。
变美可以提高自信,职场晋升,走上人生巅峰。
参考表达born with defects, like cleft lip 兔唇get disfigured 毁容boost confidence 提升自信climb up the career ladder(这个表达在what is life really like in Japan中讲过)enhance career prospects 提升职业前景反对整容:a.内在美永远比外表更重要。
b.整容容易上瘾,而且有风险。
参考表达inner beauty always outweighs the appearanceget addictive 上瘾carry a risk 有风险新托福口语Task2范文一:I'm definitely against it as beauty is in the eye of beholders, after all you have done to impress others, at the end you find no one appreciating and you start to think if it's worth the risk and pain all over again.Plus it makes everyone look the same, now when i go out i figure out right away who has been under knife. this unnatural look says it all!And now with all kinds of makeup techniques, people are able to look the way they want, so why suffer when things can work out just like that, most importantly its more natural!新托福口语Task2范文二:Well, personally, I think it is acceptable for people to undertake plastic surgery based on the following reasons. T o begin with, when someone is having a plastic surgeries, the money will be paid to the surgeons and also to those who work in that place, like the janitors, repairmen, cashier and the receptionists. In short, it can boast the economy by creating more jobs. Additionally, some people are not happy with their appearance, and a better body and facial appearance will help build up their confidence and they certainly have the right and freedom to decide what they do with their body. I mean, it doesn't hurt to have the plastic surgeries as long as the party involved can afford it.新托福口语Task2范文三:To be honest, I’m ok with this. Changing the way people look has become a part of their daily topics. I always hear people around me talk about having a plastic surgery in South Korea,like breast implants or double-fold eyelids. Even I want to make my chin look pointy. You may think I am crazy, but tell you the truth, if some people don’t get it done, they will lose their precious chances. For example, when two girls are taking a job interview. Girl A looks really normal, actually when she is surrounded by the crowd, you won’t even notice her. And Girl B has ever done a plastic surgery on her nose, cheeks and eyebrows, and she’s perfect in most men’s eyes. So, whom do you think will get the job? Girl B of course. I’m not being judgmental, I’m just telling the cruel facts.下载全文。

4.15/2.252017年01月07日托福写作考题回忆综合防止海龟减少的办法是否有用阅读:有3种办法防止海龟减少1建立金属围栏,防止海龟蛋被素食者吃掉2禁用塑料袋,海龟吃了塑料袋,消化道会被堵塞3把传统渔网改成只能捕鱼而不会限制海龟的,海龟被渔网捉住,会溺水听力:上述办法都不行1.金属围栏会阻碍小海龟的磁场发育,海龟靠磁场导航,找食物,找配偶,找地方产卵。
没有发育好的磁场,海龟根本无法生存,繁衍。
2.限制塑料袋或许有用。
问题是,现在海里已经有成千上万的塑料袋了,即使分解成了小片,一样会危害海龟。
所以限塑解决不了燃眉之急。
3.改进的渔网,渔民会拒绝使用,因为网到的鱼会减少,收入会减少。
即使有法律规定必须使用,渔民也会趁没人使用传统渔网,回到岸上再换成改进渔网。

5月6日托福口语真题回忆:T1The university decides to remodel the dormitory and add a newI suppose most of us would like to have a new study room. There are two reasons.The first reason is it can help us study. Nowadays, GPA becomes moreand more important for college students. Good grades can help us ingetting an ideal job after graduation.First 是逻辑词,让论述结构清晰,简介明了地引出第一个原因,举一个细节例子——学习好了有利于找工作。
The second reason is during the final exams, an additional study placewill be necessary for us. At that time there will be crowds of peoplegetting up early to study in our library. It will be difficult to have a seat in there. So if we can have an additional study room in our dormitory, it willbe much more convenience when our library is full of people.Second 和 First 一样,作为逻辑词使论述层次更清晰。
接着简洁明了概述第二个原因,举第二个例子——期末图书馆占不到座位,最好是有个多的学习室。
T2All people should be required to stop working and retire by age 65.Do you agree or disagree?Personally, I agree with this proposal. There are two reasons.直接明确地表明支持还是不支持这个观点,然后用平行结构列举两个论点。
On the one hand, requiring people to retired at 65 can leave moreopportunity to young people. So it will be easier for the young to find a position.On the one hand,注意逻辑结构,引出第一个原因。
用一个例子支持该论点——老人强制退休,给年轻人让出更多的工作岗位。
On the other hand, being forced to retire at 65 doesn‘t mean retiredpeople will do nothing and just stay at home. One can develop a newhobby different from his original job. For example, a math professor mayget interested in history after he regains enough time in retirement. Thusmay save people from life-long repetitive work and lead them into abrand new world.On the other hand,与 on the one hand 配套使用,适用于说明两个原因。
阐述第二个原因:老人退休以后可以拥有工作之外的爱好,丰富生活。
最后举一个例子——数学教授退休之后可能会对历史产生兴趣。
T3阅读标题:Laundry Room Renovation学生们抱怨空间太小,机器太少,等待时间长,所以决定把 Eastwoodbasement 扩建一下。
期间暂时停用,使用 Greenwood 的洗衣机。
听力态度:disagree原因 2:Greenwood 要绕过校园。
花费的时间很长,尤其是衣服多的,可能需要走好几次,花的时间更长In the passage, the university is going to have the laundry roomrenovated to add more laundry machine and dryers because studentsalways complain about long waiting time when using the laundry room. However, the man thinks it is unnecessary. His first reason is that students pour into the laundry room only at weekends. If they comeduring the weekdays, they don’t need to wait for so long. The second reason is the laundry room will shut up if it begins to be renovated. And students will have to take their laundries far away outside school to get them washed. It will be very inconvenient.T4定义:开放性的群体,对外来者不封闭的,而是愿意接受新成员的。
新成员可能带来在以前群体的知识。
听力例子:雌性黑猩猩 chimpanzee 结束青春期后可能选择新的群体,就会带来自己以前学习到的知识和技能。
例如一个黑猩猩在以前的的群体里学习到可以用棍子去捅蚂蚁洞,诱使蚂蚁出来以吃的的群体里学习到可以用棍子去捅蚂蚁洞,诱使蚂蚁出来以吃This passage introduces a concept called permeable group. This notion means there are certain groups which are welcome to new comers. Andthus will lead to the spread of some useful behavior. In the lecture, the professor takes chimpanzee as an example. A female chimpanzee canmove from one group to another. And during its moving, it will teachother group members a practical technique to find food. That is a chimpanzee can thrust a stick into the ant hole. The ants will climb on the stick and then the chimpanzee can fetch back the stick and eat the antson it.T5问题: 男生看到一则以比较优惠的价格出售一个品牌鼓的广告,但是距离比较远,天气正冷,他需要乘车前往。
优点 1 : 可以多穿点衣服,让自己暖和点。
缺点 1 : 车的供暖系统坏掉了,要到下周才去修。
解决方案 2 : 租车In the conversation, the man wants to buy a drum from a person wholives an hour away. So he needs a car to get there. He has two solutions. The first one is using the car of his friend. However, it is winter and the car’s heating system has been broken. So it can be very cold this way. The second solution is to rent a car with good heating system but it will be much expensive.

The professor talks about two characteristics of effective feedback. The first characteristic is feedback must be properly timed. For example, in a painting class, teacher should give students feedback before the class is over. So the students can try recommended techniques in teacher’s feedback in their painting.

For example, if a student use wrong color in his painting, the teacher should tell him to change another color in his future painting rather than just tell him he is a bad painter.5月6日托福写作真题回忆:综合阅读: 美国的一种叫 auklet 的海鸟出现了 die-off 的情况。
