2. TOEFL oral preparation knowledge
1, fluency does not mean fast speech.
Fluency is one of the scoring criteria of TOEFL speaking, but many students understand fluency quickly, which is actually two different things.
Speaking too fast will directly lead to unclear pronunciation, which is easy for examiners to understand. Moreover, if your language ability is not good, there will be more grammar and pronunciation errors at a fast speed, which will reduce your score.
Speak at a moderate speed, pause in an appropriate tone, and be able to say all the main points within the specified time. If you can't reach such a perfect level now, please let yourself have enough time for TOEFL training first, and then make sure you speak clearly.
2. The answer direction should not be biased.
For different questions, you can apply the same argument, but to ensure that the direction of the next argument can not deviate, especially for independent questions, you must ensure the correct answer direction.
For example, "please describe your favorite extracurricular activities" and "please describe the extracurricular activities that you think are most meaningful to you": both of these questions can be applied to a common paragraph of voluntary activities "teaching junior students to read texts", which is good, but we should pay attention when we go down.
So the same thing will be applied to different topics in different directions.
3. Ways to improve oral English quickly
The new TOEFL oral test includes six tasks, the first two are independent oral English and the last four are comprehensive oral English. Because TOEFL oral practice should not only practice "speaking" ability, but also practice "listening" ability, so as to effectively improve.
Many people have been practicing oral TOEFL, which is a common problem, but how can they speak English well without speaking?
First, refuse dumb English. Dare to speak English and be good at communicating with others in English. For example, find a study partner, communicate with each other in English, correct pronunciation problems and promote each other. Practice speaking English in this way, and you will no longer be afraid of speaking difficulties.
Second, find a favorite English book or English reading, with the original sound. Only the books you like are willing to read. When you open a book, you must not read it silently, but read it aloud. Reading it is mainly to get your oral muscles used to the pronunciation when you read English. Then play the sound of raw materials to see what is the difference between yourself and the sound of raw materials.
Third, insist on reading every morning. Be sure to read aloud in the morning It won't take long, just about 20 minutes. Morning reading is to help you master pronunciation more firmly and strengthen your familiarity with spoken English. Authentic pronunciation, spoken English will naturally become shiny. Long-term adherence to practicing oral skills in this way can improve TOEFL oral English more effectively and quickly.
4. Improve oral English skills
First, the accumulation of TOEFL oral materials
First of all, you should accumulate omnipotent oral materials. According to the classification of composition materials, such as characters, you need to accumulate their identities and experiences, such as a painter, writer, artist, politician and so on. Don't accumulate omnipotent paragraphs, which will easily make the examiner think that you are memorizing materials. Secondly, we should practice making sentences from time to time, and we must say it orally, not write it down. Writing it down is meaningless to improve TOEFL oral English. If you want to practice making sentences, you can start with simple attributive clauses, which is very common in spoken English.
Finally, in addition to the above two points, we should learn how to connect simple sentences into paragraphs naturally, which is also the logic that is often said. If you can use logical connectors, when you say sentences and paragraphs, you should have clear priorities and powerful paragraphs. The better the words used in logic, the examiner will think that your vocabulary is rich and your impression score will be good.
Second, TOEFL oral pronunciation practice
In the TOEFL test, the scoring rules say that the accent of candidates is not important, but I think accent is the most basic and important pronunciation. Before preparing for the exam, every student should strictly control his accent and reduce the pronunciation of "Chinese style". Talk more, imitate more and exercise more. When you do more exercise, your oral muscles will be familiar with the pronunciation of speaking English, so that you won't fight with your mouth when you want to speak English quickly to describe something. Then some students will ask? Do I choose England or America? Choose an American accent and don't change their accent. Because English pronunciation and American pronunciation have different rhythms. English pronunciation is difficult, but English pronunciation is tight. Of course, we can also understand each other, so that when we hear English listening materials, we can quickly distinguish which accent it is, which is very useful for practicing oral English. When listening to English materials, you should try to follow them, and you need to record your own voice, play your own listening, and correct your nonstandard pronunciation by comparing the pronunciation of raw materials. Repeat skimming and linking as much as possible. Recording allows you to listen to your pronunciation more objectively and know how to adjust it. This is what you need to master to practice TOEFL speaking skills.
