Therefore, society actually benefits fromTV.3.Explainwhy the woman disagrees with the reasons expressed in the letter.The writer of the letter opposes the universit y‟s plan to acquire a new sculpture because the university‟s financi al condition is poor and the sculpture is so large that it‟ll take up all the green space in front of the campus center. The woman in the conversation thinks the two reasons are totally unconvincing. The woma n says it‟s an anony mous donor who pays the bill of the sculpture not the university so t here is no need to worry about the university‟s financi al condition. As for the point about the space, the woman thinks Paul, the writer of the letter, always plays soccer with his friends on the lawn where the sculpture will be. She thinks Paul just doesn‟t want to move to another place. For him, it‟s convenience versus sculpture.4.Explaingroupthinkand its effects using example ofthe computercompany.Groupthink is a process in which individual members of a group conform their ideas to the group consensus even if the result may not be well. The professor in the lecture uses his personal experience in a computer company to illustrate this process. Once he and his co-worker suggested to give their computer a design make-over to look cooler in order to attract new customers. At first, the majority supported their suggestion. But there were a few senior managers who did n‟t support. Then some supporters changed their mind, so did the professor‟s co-worker. The co-worker changed his mind because he didn‟t want to make a bad impression on senior managers. He thought disagreeing with them might harm his future promotion. Then after a long discussion and with more and more people sided with senior managers, the professor himself though was the only one who‟s delaying the decision. Then, he voted against himself.So they all agreed not to have this design make-over. At last, the company lost profit because its competitors came up with good-looking computers and win more customers.5.The speakers discuss two possible soluti ons to thewoman‟s p roblem. Briefly summarize theproblem.Then state which shouldsolution you recommend and explain why.The woman was supposed to drive a bunch ofelementary students tothe zoo tomorrow butshe didn‟trent a van in time and the kids will be disappointed if the trip gets cancelled.The mansuggests herto borrow a carfromone ofher friends.Butshe has toborrow two cars to hold al l the kids and it‟s hard to find anotherdriver.Then the man suggests her to takethe publictransportation.Heisprettysurethat thereisabuslinepastthezoo. But thewomanthinksit‟s hard to control the kids on the bus.Well personally,Iwould recommend the woman to take the bus line.Even ifthe kids are handful,they arestill controllable.But there is no guarantee thatshe can borrow two cars and find anotherdriverat the same time.ing the researchdescribedby the professor,explain whatscientists have learned aboutthe mathematical abilities ofbabies.In the lecture the profe ssordescribes how scientists learn aboutbaby‟s mathematicalabilities.Researchers did an exp erimenttotestbaby‟s abi lity to add thatbaby knows one plus one equals two.They firstputadoll in frontofa baby and lowered thescreen tohide the do ll.So the baby knows it‟s there. Then they clearly putanotherdoll behind the screen so there should be twodolls.Butresearcherssecretlytookoneawayandwhentheyliftthescreenup, the baby was surprised because itexpected to see twodolls buttherewasonlyone.Weknowwhenababyissurprised,itstaresatthethingthatmakesit feel surprised.The researchers recorded the bab y‟s eye-movement with a camera and found thatthe babystared.So the baby has the ability to add. It knows onedoll plus one doll equals two dolls.新托福TPO口语参考答案——TPO21.Choose a place yougo to often thatis importanttoyou and explain why it is important. Please include specific details in yourexplanation.Ioften go to the basketball courtnearmy apartment. It‟s very importantto me because Iplay basketball there everyday and basketball is my favorite sport. Eversince Iwas a little boy,I have been playing in thatcourt with my friends. When in juniorhigh,I practiced shooting and dribbling in thatcourt nearlyeveryday till late atnight.Besides,the courtis the reminderofan awful lotof my valuable memories.I still can rememberthathow Istarted outshooting badly and then afterseveral wee ks‟ practice,I could shootwell and dribbled well.Icanalso remembermanyfriends with whomIplayed basketball and form teams.Without thatcourt, I couldn‟tpossibly make so many fr i ends.So it‟s very importanttome.2.Some college students choose to take courses in a variety ofsubjectareas in ordertogeta broad education.Otherschoose to focus on a single subject area in orderto havea deeperunderstanding ofthatarea.Whichapproach to course selection do you think is better forstudents and why?Well,Ithink taking a wide variety ofcourses is better forstudents.Because, firstof all,Ithink undergraduate study is meantfor broadness.Students had betterbroaden theirhorizon andpreventthemselves frombeingnarrow-minded.Second ofall,I think before s tudents find their“true love”,I mean,thesub jectthey really wantto go deep into,they should probably extend theirstudyfieldand tastedifferentsubjects in va rious areas so as to identify the “true love”.Take myselfas an example,mymajoris software engineering in the college,butI took variouscourses outside mymajor field. Then Ifound outthat I was more interested in literaturethan in computerand software.So literatureis my “truelove”.Ithink itdepends on the students themselves.Ifa studentdoesn‟tknow his or herinterest.I t‟s betterforthem totake a variety ofcourses so as to taste various kinds ofsubjects tofind theirinterest.Takemyselfas an example,my majorissoftwareengineeringinthecollege, but Itookvariouscoursesoutside my major field.Then Ifound outthatIwas more interested in literature than in computerand software.So literature is my interest. Ifastudentalready know whathe likes and whathe needs to learn.Then taking many differentclasses will be a little bitwaste oftime. I t‟sbetterf or this studentto concentrate on his orherinter est.For instance,I don‟tthink BillGates ne ed to take courses otherthan computerscience when inHarvard,coz he knewwhathe liked and what he wanted.He alreadyknew his interest.3.The man expresses his opinion of the university‟s pl an to eliminate the bus service.State his opinion and explain the reasons he gives for holding that opinion.The university has decided to stop its free bus service because not very many students ride the bus and plans to use the money saved to expand the overcrowded parking lots. But the man in the conversation doesn‟t like the plan. As for the point about few students riding the bus, the man saysit‟s because the bus routes are out of date. The bus only goes through the places that are too expensive for students to live. If the buses change route and the man thinks there will be plenty of students taking those buses.The man also disagrees with the uni versity‟s plan to e xpand the parking lots. He thinks the plan will encourage more students to drive, which will add noise and create moretraffic.Then they‟ll n eed more parking space. He thinks the university should make it easier for students to take the public buses not the other way around.4.Explainhow the examples of tying shoes and learning to type demonstrate the principle ofaudience effects.The principle of audience effects is that individua ls‟ performance is affected by the knowledge that others are watching them. The professor uses examples of tying shoes and learning to type toIn the example of tying shoes, one group of college students was told that they were being observed, the other didn‟t know they were being observed. The students who knew they were being watched tied their shoes much faster than the other group. And in the example of learning to type, when we are conscious of being observed, we will increase typing speed. We type faster than we do alone. Also, other behavioral pattern will increase, like making mistakes. So when we type faster when we know we are being observed, we also make more mistakes.5.The speakers discuss two possible soluti ons to thewoman‟s p roblem. Describe theproblemand the two solutions.Then explain whatyou think the woman should doandwhy.Theprofessorasksthewomantoattendafieldtrip,butthewomanhasalready promised anotherprofessorto help setup amuseumexhibitionnextweek.Andthisistheproblem.Theprofessorofferstwopossiblesolutions.Thefirstis thatshecantalktotheotherprofessortoseeifthereissomeoneelsewhocan replace thewoman tohelp setup the museumexhibition.The second is that the woman finishes setting up the museumbefore theysetout the field trip. Actually,Ithink the woman should choose the second solution,because she has already agreed to help the otherprofessorand theotherprofessoris counting on her.I t‟s possible thatthere is noone else who can take herplace. So she‟d better finish the taskfirstbefore she goes to the field trip.ing points and examples fromthetalk, explain the two definitions of moneypresented by the professor.Theprofessortalks abouttwo definitions ofmoney,a broad one anda narrow one.By the broad definition,money is everything with which we can make purchases.Forexample,coins and bills canbe money, because we can use themtobuygoodssuchasvegetablesandpayforservicessuchastaxi.Butin a bartersystem,vegetables can be money, because farmers cangive drivers vegetablesin exchange fora drive.By the narrow definition,in a society,the legal tenderis money. Forinstance,in the US,drivers and farmersmust acceptdollars as payment.People can use dollars to pay for taxiand buy vegetablesbecause dollaris the legal tenderin the US. So,dollar in the form ofcoin and bill is money.新托福TPO口语参考答案——TPO31.Whatcharacteristics do you think make someone a good parent?

Myparents answered these questions patiently and iftheycouldn't,they would buy books thathave the answers to my questions.

Mymajor inthecollegeissoftwareengineering,butIdecidedtobeanEnglishteacheraftergraduation. My parentsrespectedmy decision and allowme topursue my own interest. Thanks to my parents,I ampatientand I respectother people.2.Some students preferto workon class assignments by themselves.Others believe itis better to work in a group.Which do you prefer? Explainwhy.Iprefertoworkonassignmentsindividually.Therearetworeasons.Thefirstis thatIliketobeinaquietplacewhilestudying.IfIstudyinagroup,Iwillalways be interrupted by group memberswho talk aboutirrelevantthings. Then it‟s possi b le thatI can‟teven finish the assignm ents. Once,I attended a group discussion.Many people were noteven discussing.They were justtalking aboutNBAgames.When itended,I gotnothing fromit. The secon d reason isthatI‟d like to think independently.Studying individually gives me enough timetodevelopmyownideas.Whenstudyinginagroup,Iwillalwaysb edistracted by other‟s opi nions and thoughts.So sometimes manyassignments are not done by myselfbutby othergroup members.Like last week,Iworked in a group to solve math problems.It turned outthatmany problems were solved by others notby myself. I feltveryunhappy aboutit.Personally,Ilike working in groups better. There are tworeasons toname. Firstis that there is diversity in groups.Group membersall have theirdifferent perspectives so somemembers can help stweek,I attended a math group and therewas one math proble mI couldn‟twork out. Butthere was one memberwho knew how to solve thatproblemand he workedouttheprobleminacompletelydifferentway.ThenIlearnedfromhim. The second reason is that Icanpractice mycommunicative skills.In groupdiscussion s,Ishouldbeabletounderstandothers‟ideasandat thesametime toconveymineclearlyinordertomakethecommunicationgowell.Ilearnhow to express myselfproperlyand to be a good-listener.3.The woman expresses heropinion ofthe change thathas been announced. State heropinion andexplain herreasons forholding thatopinion.Dining services will notserve hot breakfastfood anymore.They only serve cold breakfastfood.The woman in the conversation thinks the change is ridiculous.Firstofall, she thinks whethersomething is hotorcolddoesn‟t necessarilymean itishealthy.S he says that in a really cold morning,a nice warm omelet is obviously betterthan a bowel ofcold cereal.Secondly,she thinks the change will not help save money. Because if the students can‟t get what they want from dining hall, they will go off-campus.Then they have to pay off-campusprice,which is more expensive.So this change will nothelp save money but actually end up costing more.ing the example discussedby the professor,explain whatcognitive dissonanceis and howpeople often deal with it.CognitiveDissonance is a kind ofmental discomfortpeople feelwhen they experiencecontradictions between theiractions and theirbeliefs.The professoruses his own experience to illustrate this phenomenon.When he was in highschool,hewas addict ed to video games. He didn‟tdo well in study and even failed in chemistry. He knew he should study well in ordertofind good jobs and have agood career.Buthejustcouldn‟tgive up vi deo games. And this was his conflict.His solution was to change hisperspective. Chemistry was the only class he did badly.He was pretty surethathe wanted tobeasociologistandbeingasociologistdoe sn‟tneed tobewellinchemistry. So he reinterpreted his understanding ofdoing well inschool.Initially,he thoughthe should dowell in all subjects to be successful in school.But then, he thought he should only do well in the subjects that are directly related to his future career.So he changed hisbeliefto eliminate theconflict.5.The speakers discuss two possible soluti ons to thewoman‟s p roblem. Briefly summarize theproblem.Then state which ofthesolutions you recommend and explain why.Thewoman won an award and isinvited to attend the award ceremony.But herbiologyexamis scheduled atthe same time.So she is struggling about whatto do. There aretwo possible solutions.The first one is thatshe could writea5-pagepaperinsteadoftakingtheexam.Butshethinkswritingapaper will take more time than preparing forand taking an exa m.She‟s gotmany otherthings to do.

It's the trade-off.ing the examplesfrom thetalk,explainhow persuasive strategies are used in advertising.The professortalks abouttwo kindsofpersuasive strategies in advertising. The firststrategy is repetition.When a slogan is repeated enoughtimes,we tend to believe whatthe slogan says.The example is a carcommercial.A guy is driving around and keeps stopping to pick up differentpeopl e,each time a narrativesays“Plentyofroomforfriends”,“Plentyofroomforfamily”andsoon. Ifwe hear the slogan so many tim es,we tend to believe the caris spacious even ifit‟s not.The second strategy is using celebrities.We believecelebrities are trustworthy.For example,in a carcommercial,Ifa famous race-cardriver isshowninacarandsays“Ilikemycarfas t.”,peoplewi llbelievethecarisfast evenifit‟s actually nota very fast car新托福TPO口语参考答案——TPO41.Whatdoyou miss mostaboutyourhomewhen you are away?

Explain why.Ithink learning in traditional classrooms is better. The reason whyIthink so is thattherearemoreinteractionsintraditionalclassroomsthaninonlinecourses. Studentscanhavediscussionsandtheyseeeachotherfacetof ace.It‟shighly probable t hatsome ofthemwill become friends.While in the onlin e courses, studentsdon‟t knoweachother, theymissachanceofmakingfriends. Also, in a traditiona l classroom,ifastudentdoesn‟tunderstanda concept oran idea,heor she canraisehandtoask theteacher directly. Whileinanonlinecourse, there is nochance for students toraise hands ortothrow outquestions immediately.Students in traditional classrooms notonly learn the academic knowledgebutalso learn basic interpersonalinteractions.Iprefer to take academic courses on the Internet.Since the courses are offered onli ne,Idon‟t have to livenearcampus.All Ineed is a computerand a well-connected Internet. Ican study athome and anywhere conve nient. Besides,Idon‟thav e to worry aboutmy housing,nordo Ineed todrive back and forth. So itsaves me moneyand time. Also,it‟s e asierto record onlinecourses so Ican review the part I don‟tund erstand. With the recorded courses,Ican have a good review before final examination.3.The computerdepartmentis considering a schedulingchange.Explain the man's opinion ofthe change andthe reasons he gives forholding thatopinion.The ComputerDepartmentproposes to addevening computerclasses because daytime computerclasses have become overcr owded.Butthe man in the conversation thinks it‟s a bad proposal.The mansays thatmostof the students have already gottheir own plans in the evenings.They have jobs, family,clubs and socia l events so they won‟thave time to attend the evening classes.The man also says that it‟s actuallygoing to costmoretoopen eveni ng classes than to simply buy more computers,since to open new classes need to hire new teachers.However,computeris notexpensive now. Plus,the computerclassroomsare big enough to holdmore computers.Sohe thinks buying more computers isa betterway to solve the problem.4.Explainhow the examples fromthe professor's lecture illustrate the relationshipbetween verbal and nonverbal communication.The professoruses his two experiences to illustrate therelationshipbetween verbal andnonverbalcommunication.In his firstexperie nce,his uncle visited him.Since he hadn‟tseen his uncle foralong time, when he saw his uncle,he said“Whata surprise！”and because he was so happy that he jumped like a little boy and had a huge smile onhis face.His uncle feltgood becauseofhis words and actions.Si nce the professor‟s ve rbal message agrees with his nonverbal signals,theverbalmessage is enhanced.Inhis second experience,when he was showinghis daughterhow to use ahammer,hesm ashed his thumb.Hesaid to his daughter“Don‟tworry,honey.I t‟s nothing.”butat the same timehe was shaking his hand and his face was contorted.His daughter keptaskinghimifhe was okay.Because the professor‟s verbal m essage doesn‟tag ree with his nonverbalmessage,the communication is totally different.5.The speakers discuss two possible solutions to theman's problem.Briefly summarize the problem.Then state which solution yourecommend and explain why.The mandidn‟ttake h is class schedule with him and it‟s his firstd ay in the college,so hecouldn‟tfind his cl assroom.The woman offerstwo possible solutions. The firstsolution is that he can go to use the computerinthe computercenterto check the schedule.But i t‟ll take sometime togo there and he doesn‟twantto be late forhis firstclass.The second solution is thathe can justgoto big classrooms in the building to check whichone is theclass he is going to take.Buthe t hinks it‟ll be embarrassing ifhe goes into a classroomandasksifheisintherightroom.Iwouldrecommendhetogotothecompute r center,since he didn‟ttake his class schedul e,it‟s necessary to c heck all classes for the whole d ay.Maybehe‟ll be lateforhisfirst class,but atleasthe won‟tfeel embarrassed for the restof the day.ingpointsandexamplesfromthelecture,explaintheimportanceofvisual elements inpainting.Inthe lecture,the professorsaysin orderfor arttoexpress meaningor emotion,artists need to combine various visual elements such ascolorand texture.Differentcolors can evoke different moods.Red is a strong colorso it evokes strong emotions such as extreme joy, excitementand anger,whereas blue is a cool colorso itevokes calming effect.As fortexture,a rough texture can evoke strong emotions and strength,while a smoothtexture is more calming and less emotional.Artists need to combine these elements to express meaning orconvey message.Forexample,ifa painting uses strongcolors such as red and orange and uses brush strokes to give a rough texture, itwill convey a wilderand more chaotic emotion in a viewerthan apainting with softcolors and smooth texture.新托福TPO口语参考答案——TPO51.Talk about a place you enjoyed going or visiting whenyouwerea child.

Use details and examples toexplain your answer.Itis more importan t tostudy math or science than it istostudyart or literature.Istronglydisagree with the statementthatstudying mathor science i smore important than studyingart or literature.Of course,math and science are veryimp ortant.But itis me aningless to say tha t they ar e more important thana rt or literature.We admire Newton forhisscientific achievements such asNewto n's first law.We equally admire Leonardo fo r hisart accomplishments such asMona Lisa.These two people are not comparablebecause they arein two differentfields.Sosome people ma ylikestudyingscience.Some may likestudying literature.They all make contributionsto the human civilizations.Somathor science and arto r literature,they are equallyimportant.3.Theman expresseshisopinion about the university'splan.Statehis opinion and explain the reasons he givesforholdingthat opinion.The man thinks it's a greatideatolet the culinarystudentsto cook meals in the Campus Dining Club. His first reasonisthat it's good forstudents in the culinary program.His cousinisin the programandsays preparin g meals for a large numberof peopleis very different from just cooking in the classes.Because cooking inclasses,youcan justtaketime,bu t cookingfor many peop le,youhavea lot of pressure andmight make mistakes. So it's averyagood practicefor them. His second reasonisthat e ven with the extracost,the mealsprovided by thesestudents are still much cheaper than that of the fancy restaurantsin the town. Butthe food will be equally good. He thinks it'll be worth it.ingthe professor's examples,explain the advertisi ng techniqueo f targetmarketing.Targetmarketing is a strategy of advertisingtosmaller,specificcustomers.The professor uses a cell-phonecompanyas an example.If t he companywantsto sel l phones t o young people,it‟ll choose to put a T V commercial in the programs that young peoplelike to watch and inthe commercial,the phone is shown to be coo l andhasa brightcolor.Also, in the commercial,kids are having agoodtime with theirfriends.Ifthe companywants to appealto businessmen,it‟ll put a different TV commercialin a businessprogram.Besides,the commercial will showho w the cell-phonecan handle all businessefficiently and can save money. So it‟s basically the same cell-phone,but the companymakestwo different commercials toattract two specific groups of people.5.Briefly summarizethe woman‟sproblem.Then state which solution you would recommend. Explain the reasonsfor your recommendation.The woman sprained her wrest but she is supposed to play the violinin her string-quarte t concert next week. Now she isupset.In the conversation,they talk abouttwo possiblesolutions.The first one i s that shecan just wait andplay t he violin i ntheconce rt next week becaus e her doctor says that she will be better whenthe concert begins.But s he will beout of practice and probably perform badly.Thesecond solutio n isthat she can askJim totake her place.Jim is avery good violinist. But he is not very reliable,because heis always latefor r ehearsals. I recommendher to choose the second solution.Since she isdefinitely going to beout of p ractice,it‟s betterto ask Jimtotake her place.And since she knows Jim‟s problem,she can urge Jim to showupon ti m e forall the rehearsals.It‟s just only a week.ing points and examples from the talk, explain the two typesof motivation.In the lecture,the professortalks about two types of motivation:extrinsic motivation and intrinsic motivation.Extrinsic motivation isexternal.A person with extrinsic motivationperforms a behaviorin orde r to getan externalreward.For example,a child whodoes somehousework doesn‟t really enjoydoing housework.She just wantstoobtain somemoney. If her parentsstopgiving her money,she might st opdoing t he housework. However, people with intrinsic motivation do something out of pure pleasure.Theydo som ething because they enjoy doing it orthey get a sense of accomplishment from it.For example,the professor goes to the gym several times week. She is not going therefor Marathon trainin g oranything.Shegoes t here because after s ome exercise she feels good ab out herself.。
