2015年10月25日大陆地区托福口语考题如何解答?新东方学校老师第一时间为大家带来了2015年10月25日大陆地区托福口语真题解析及答案(托福口语机经)。

  Task 1

  A lot of experienced and inexperienced climb mountains every year, which one of the following adjectives would you use to describe this experience? Adventurous, frightening or foolish?

  I would say mountain climbing can be a very adventurous experience to everyone, including experienced and inexperienced climbers. I’ve got two reasons. First of all, it’s an opportunity to get ourselves out of our repetitive life. Take my cousin as an example, from Monday to Friday, he’s an ordinary bank teller doing everyday work just like every other guy in this city, but every weekend, he gets together with a bunch of friends and they go hiking in the mountains in the suburb of Beijing. It’s a chance to get away from the city, and add a little spice to his ordinary life. Plus, it’s a way to challenge ourselves and it brings out the best in us. I’m not a big fan of climbing mountains, but I did rock-climbing once and it was fascinating, at first I was really nervous and I thought there was no way I could make it to the top, but then I started climbing and I did it one step at a time but I eventually made it. So I guess it’s similar when we climb a mountain, the sense of achievement we get from the experience is irreplaceable.

  Task 2

  Some people believe technology has brought people closer and others believe that technology actually isolate people, which one do you agree with? Explain why.

  I think modern technology has brought people closer than ever for the following reasons. Firstly, it completely changed the way people communicate. Take my family as an example, 20 years ago my aunt went to Japan to further her education and even though making phone calls was also an option, the only way she could communicate with her family was to write letters because the phone bills were way too expensive, and it would take 2 weeks for the letters to travel all the way to Beijing. It was slow and torturing. Now people no longer have to suffer from long distance, all we have to do is dial a number on our cellphones and in a few seconds we can hear the voice we want to hear. Plus, modern technology has made the earth a much smaller place than before. A few decades ago it was almost impossible to communicate with people from other countries, it used to take months for someone to travel to the US by sea. Now the internet connects almost everyone from every corner in the world and people can share all sorts of information on this platform.

  Task 3

  The university plans to require all dorms to remain quiet after 10pm due to two reasons. The first reason is because it offers a better environment for students to have a good rest at night. And the second reason is that students wouldn’t have scheduling problems any more and it’s better for the relationship between students. In the conversation, the woman agrees with the plan. In the first reason, she mentions that a lot of students like to study in dorms, or some of them have early morning classes, so it’s important to maintain a quiet environment in dorms. As for the second reason, the woman points out that sometimes students feel uncomfortable asking their roommates to keep it down, and the new policy would solve this problem.

  Task 4

  In the lecture, the professor talks about the concept of outcome independence which means people tend to give better comments on those who can offer them help potentially. He offers us an example to illustrate it. Two groups of salesmen were assigned tasks and were told that they would receive a big bonus if they could finish the tasks. Then these two groups salesmen were asked to watch a video, in the video it’s a man giving a speech. The second group of salesmen were told that this guy would later join their team and help them with the tasks while the first group of salesmen didn’t receive such information. Later when they asked the salesmen to describe the man in the video, the first group of salesmen described him as a good salesman very objectively. And the second group of salesmen described him as lovable, reliable and etc. because they thought they would receive help from this man.

  Task 5

  The woman’s problem is that she needs to do a presentation for her class in 10 minutes on the other side of campus but it’s pouring outside. There are two possible solutions for her. The first one is to borrow an umbrella from the man. And the second solution is to just go outside like this. If I were in the woman’s shoes, I’d go for the second solution because this way she will arrive to the class on time, since it’s her presentation, punctuality is extremely important. I personally don’t recommend the other solution because the man has to go upstairs to get his umbrella, it will take too much time and the woman may appear to be rude if she was late for the presentation. That’s why in this case, I think the second solution is a smarter option.

  Task 6

  In the lecture, the professor talks about the cooperation among animals. He offers us an example to illustrate it. Usually mothers won’t allow anyone to get close to their cubs. But sometimes mother monkeys would let younger females in the group to help take care of their babies. This happens mainly for two reasons. First of all, this way mother monkeys would have time to do more important things like getting food. Secondly, this also offers the younger females a very good opportunity to learn to take care of baby monkeys, it’s sort of like a training for them, so that they are more likely to become good mothers themselves in the future.
