3。托福口语心得(目标：将五大类口语考题分别列一个框架文段，用计时器练习5-10遍）：

1.Good teacher/good friend /good leader character

Personally, I think a teacher/friend /leader/ with intelligence is most desirable.

First ,an intelligent teacher/friend /leader/ can help you while sharing and solving your problems .In case of trouble, a intelligent teacher/friend /leader/ may inspire us and the situation might be quite different with smart ideas

Second  , you may benefit a lot from learning from an intelligent teacher/friend /leader/ ,the way he/her deal with urgencies, the way he/she handle tough situation, even the way he/she develops his/her good manners.

Finally ,an intelligent teacher/friend /leader/ would be a big motivation for bettering oneself, cause you will start develop your potentials and think differently .hoping to be equally competitive and capable as he or she is.  (105)

2.The most memorable/enjoyable experience in

The most memorable/enjoyable experience in my childhood/college would be the annual party held on the New Year’s Eve of 2003/10 years old. I can still recall those beautiful decorations made of flowers and colorful balloons. All our teachers ,school kid with their parents were present. It was an exciting evening with live band, group dance show and interactive games .what impressed me most was the chance I got to sing in front of all my classmates, which was a dream deep in my heart for long time and I had a big applaud when finished, Undoubtedly, It was the biggest reward and the most unforgettable and cheerful experience in my life. (103)

3.Should you work at home/in the office? similar :big company or small company? Big class or small class ? Indoor class or outdoor class? Learn by book or learn by experience?

In my opinion , knowledge from experience is more important and useful .First, the valuable knowledge gained from everyday life is more concrete and applicable .for example, an driver who have all the driving rules and instructions in mind may still be defined as a good driver compared with his peer who has actually driven for 5 years. Second ,the life-taught experiences are more adjustable. It does not depend on fixed doctrine or theory but on changing situation ,in that way enabling us to make the right decision under specific conditions. Therefore, knowledge from life experience is more important& practical.  (105)

4.Describe a book/place/city/career/job/game/sport/goal that you find is interesting /attractive

The place attracts me most is the Yellow Mountains in South China . The Yellow Mountains was one of the Top five mountains in China. It is famous for its shapely stones, cloud sea and various types of pines. There is an area called Grand canyon which is breathtaking for its range and height. When I looked at those shapely stones far and near I cannot help visualizing the ancient adventurers who discovered the amazing place and how they built path on such stiff cliffs. The Yellow Mountains is highly recommended for all the tourists who enjoy hiking and unbelievable views. I wish I could go there again in near future. (105)

The career I want to pursue is running my own company, which combine the Mandarin training course and the culture exchange program. Such as to design customized course for either individual or corporate clients to help them learn more about China ,or to build network for both domestic and worldwide culture scholars by holding various kinds of events. Since my major is Chinese Literature, I understand how profound and attractive our history and culture is . And I have experiences in both teaching and consulting , so I will combine my major and working experiences to get ready for my career objective. (105)

5．Describe am opportunity /danger/difficulty/ challenge you have experienced and how you overcome it ?

I once encountered a big difficulty in my internship at an e-commerce company. I was responsible to do research about domestic plastic manufacturers and suppliers in China in order to build an platform for them an our oversea buyers.. It is very tough at first because people refused to provide information when faced with an entirely new business model . I made great efforts to gather related news about global business trend and our credit in the past , gradually ,I made progress by convincing our clients that we would bring them with new business opportunities . finally ,I got my work done with consistence and passion.(106)
