新托福口语实例(十六)

面对新托福口语话题，很多考生一时不知道从哪里开始，不知道思路是什么。我们来通过实例，给大家一些参考。千万不要生搬硬套哦。

Pet

The animal: giraffe

The reasons you chose the animal:

-majestic animal

-long tongue and powerful lips

-awkward and goofy

If I could have a pet, I would have a giraffe. It is the most majestic animal in the world. It is tall and sleek. It bends down gracefully to pick leaves from trees using its long tongue and powerful lips. Its fur coat is the most beautiful found in the desert – a yellow background with large brown circles placed here and there. Despite its grace horns on its head and a somewhat goofy looking smile. To me the giraffe is a paradoxical animal – clumsily and awkwardly beautiful and graceful.

TV and film

The program: Seinfeld

The reasons you chose the program:

-funny

-mix of characters

-everyday situations

I like to watch the TV program Seinfeld because it is a funny show about ordinary people like my friends and me. None of the characters on the show are perfect people. Each one takes a turn getting into some trouble on screen. Sometimes they help each other out while other times they just make each feel silly for their mistakes. My friends and I try to see every episode. In fact, we often talk about the most recent episode when we see each other. I can really identify with the show because the characters are so similar to my friends.

Music

The type of music: rock music

The reasons you chose the music

- like beat

- sound of a generation

- music for a better life and a better society

I like all kinds of music but if I had to choose one type of music it would be rock. It was the lively beat of change for a whole society. Moreover, one of the leaders of this change was Jimi Hendrix. When I listen to his masterful electric guitar style, I can hear the energy of his generation. The music has a soul and an appealing sound. It has inspired many people to work for a better life for themselves and for a better society around them. Rock music has soul and has stood the rest of time.

Book

The book: the Catcher in the Rye by J. D. Salinger

The reasons you chose the book:

- identified with the character

- challenges of my age group

- interesting point of view

When I read The Catcher in the Rye, By J. D. Salinger, it was already an old book, but I liked it because I identified with Holden Caulfield, the young man who was the main character. He was not always correct in his judgments about the way life was, although he had strong opinions. I liked to read about how he felt and what he understood. His constant wry observations about what he encounters, from teachers to phonies, capture the essence of the eternal teenage experience of alienation. In many ways, we still have the same challenges in life since the times of The Catcher in the Rye.
