2016年3月26日托福独立口语解析

Task 1.

　　Do you like the primary school you attended. Use examples and details to support your explanation.

　　Well, I like my primary school a lot, and I had a lot of precious memory there. Actually, it was a pretty small school, and the students were from the same neighborhood. Our parents knew each other very well, and everybody knows everybody else. I had a strong sense of belonging to the school, and we were very emotionally bonded with each other. Teachers there were very attentive to the students, they were more than just teachers, they were like friends. Since the atmosphere was easygoing and friendly, the student were willing to attend class discussion, and we all enjoyed going to school.

　　Task 2.

　　1. Some people think that the best way to learn is to attend lectures. Others think that it is better to learn on their own. Which do you prefer and why?

　　Well, personally, I prefer to attend lectures. Actually, studying alone can be boring and I am the kind of person who likes to interact with others when learning. By attending lectures, I get a chance to hear multiple points of view, although some points might not be as thought-provoking, I can learn a lot of stuff beyond the textbooks anyway, and understand how an idea works in real life when other students share their personal experiences. Additionally, the professor who holds the lecture can make difficult and abstract concepts and ideas easy to understand, one might not be able to understand some materials when studying alone.
