下面小编给大家介绍托福独立口语第一个解题技巧——金字塔结构。

所谓金字塔结构就是按照一般的答题顺序，层层递进。

具体来说，第一步：用一句非常简单的话来表达你自己的观点;第二步：有效地支
撑你的观点，通常我们会用两条原因去解释观点;第三步：举例进一步
证明你的观点，能够是自己的亲自经历，也能够发挥想象力编造一个
故事。

下面我们来看一个例子：
If you could study a subject that you have never had the opportunity to study, what should you choose?
要解答这道题，第一步，我们能够选择一个自己比较熟悉的领域，比如IT(Information Technology);第二步，给出两个理由，能够说学习这个科目能提升通过计算机处理数据的水平，也能够说这种技能在
当今社会是一种很重要的技能;第三步：用一个生动的例子让大家更容
易理解你的观点。

是自己的亲自经历或者周围一些朋友、亲人的经历。

把以上这几部分串联起来，中间使用一些连接词以及固定的句式来协
助我们组织答案：
If I could study a subject that I have never learned, I would choose information technology. Because I think it will teach me the ability of processing data by using a computer, which is a quite important skill for people living in modern society. I know this from my brother, who was majored in information technology in university. After he graduated, he found a job immediately. And because of his ability of processing data efficiently, he was offered a promotion after a year.
以上就是托福独立口语题的第一个解题技巧，下面我们再来看第
二个技巧——对比论证法。

顾名思义，对比论证就是将两个事物或事件实行对比，进而打开
话题的思路。

所谓的对比有两种：一种是compare，一种是contrast。

Compare其实也就是我们中文的比较，比较的是两者的相同点;而contrast对比的是两者的不同点。

下面我们来看一个例子：
For a school assignment, do you prefer to write a long essay or do you prefer to give a speech in front of the class? Please use specific reasons and examples.
对于上面这道题，如果比较两者的相同点，那就是写论文和做演
讲两者都需要把自己的观点用逻辑性思维表达出来;如果对比两者的不
同点，那就是写论文需要在一个安静的环境下实行思考，还必须参阅
一些资料;而做演讲则需要在一个活跃的气氛中实行。

有了两者的对比，思路就打开了，下面我们就来看一下范文：
Personally speaking, I prefer to write a long essay
rather than give a speech. As for me, writing seems to be an innate skill. Writing a long essay is similar to composing my own written work, which gives me a chance to think deeply and express my opinions without disruption. Besides, writing a
long essay forces me to read a wide range of literatures and references. Through doing so, I will absorb plenty of knowledge and research in depth, which cannot be done by only listening to professor’s lectures.。
