12月10日托福口语真题

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 it’s true that most of the time we do face a lot of competitors and rivals in order to succeed, but it doesn’t mean that we have to make enemies. Let’s 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 O’Neal was already the second-to-none Center in the whole association. At the beginning, Shaquille and Kobe

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.

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 it’s a good idea, coz it’s 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.
