托福口语 | 任性大法巧破独立口语三选一
两年前，托福独立口语考试task1出现了一种新题型，叫做三选一类型的话题。之前的task1,是没有任何选项的，要求考生自己表达观点，比如talk about animportant place. 或者是describe a book，并给出支持性的理由。三选一类型考题出来之后，整个考试也变得比较有趣了。很多学生喜欢这种类型，因为对他们来说，独立口语最难的就是要去思考和给出理由和论点。当然，也有同学一通抱怨，因为有的题目三个选项，没有一个是他们想选择的，每个话题都不好答题！多年口语教学经验，在独立口语的破题思路上，程老师今天跟大家讲解一个方法，叫做“任性法”。顾名思义，答题的论点展开，可以非常任性，主观地去表达自己的观点，并加以解释就可以了，题目也会变得非常好下手，而且内容可以非常的充分。
先举个例子，2015年1月25号的题目的托福真题
Task1
Which of the followingactivities would you be more interested in doing?
teaching children, teachingadults to use computers or cleaning city park?
其实这道题很多同学三个选项都比较有理由，比如所谓的万能理由relax, make friends.都是老师课堂讲过套路，学生觉得可以拿来随便用的，其实不然。比如对于这道题目，如何跟小孩交朋友？扫个公园也想交朋友？是不是太牵强，离题千里的感觉？
那么我们的“任性法”是什么呢？就是可以任性的说，我选它因为我擅长，因为我喜欢，因为我高兴！举个例子，如果选择教小孩，那么理由1，因为我擅长，我从小就教我的little sister，我有很多和孩子相处的经验和方法。2，我擅长，因为我在大学专业就是教育学（其实不是真的），那么教孩子对我来说就是小事一桩了。什么乐于分享知识share my knowledge, 获得成就感achieve a sense ofaccomplishment这些词组就随便用啦。再比如，如果选择cleaning city park.1，因为我擅长，从小就帮爸妈做gardening job, working in the backyard。2，因为city park在户外，作为学生的我，可以更好的去放松，去飞翔，去奔跑（夸张点没问题）。所以你们看，论点展开是不是特别的容易？而且重点是一点都不牵强。

Sample 1
Well, personally speaking,I prefer to teach children in school. I have a couple of reasons. first of all,you know, I am really good at working with children. Well, this is because Iused to teach my little sister. from which I have gained many experiences andmethods to keep children interested in class and I know how to work with themperfectly. Which means, teaching children would be something really easy andI'm sure I’ll do a pretty good job. What’s more, you know, I am a sophomore incollege and my major is education. I love to share my knowledge with young kidsand teach them new things. Not only because I can get much teaching experience,but also I can get a sense of accomplishment while helping them.
Sample2
Well,from my perspective, I prefer to clean the city park. and I have two reasons.Firstly, you know, I have a lot of cleaning experience and I know how to dothis job. Well, this is because, since I was a little girl, I would help myparents doing some gardening job and working with plants in our back yard. I havehad lots of experience and I know how to do it well. what’s more, cleaning thecity park would be a great way for me to do some outdoor activities. You know,as a high school student, I usually spend the whole day sitting in theclassroom. So, being outdoors can help me to relax and release my pressure.This is why I would choose to clean the city park.
