托福TPO1口语task1范文：

Recently, I read a book named Keep the aspidistra flying written by George Orwell. The book influences me a lot because the story has something that touches my heart.

The story talks about a man who wants to be a poet and who abandons many well-paying jobs to pursue his dream of being a poet. I have a similar experience of quitting a very good job in order to be a writer. Also, the man in the story is lack of money because he works as a bookstore assistant and thus has a very low salary. He lives in a shabby apartment and sometimes have no money to buy food.

Again, I've got similar experience. I once lived in a cramped apartment alone and had no money. The book is important to me because it touches me and gives me encouragement to persist.

Task 1 is it beneficial for the students to have computers?

Well, I believe that the answer is quite obvious. I mean, yes, of course. And I’ve got a couple of reasons to name.

First of all, the computer is a great tool to facilitate our study. We can make use of various computer programs like the Word and power point which we use almost every day, and we can find out information by just a simple click.

Besides, computers, together with the internet, connect us tightly with the outside world. You see, if we have computers, we can chat online with our friends, and we can surf the internet to see what’s going on outside thecampus.

Describe an important letter or poem or story you have written.

Well, actually, I haven’t written many letters since I usually send messages through cell phones or the internet, but I do have write a letter that Ithink is very important to me because this letter helped me relive myself.

Well, there was a time when Ididn’t do well in a very important exam and Iwas so depressed then. And at that time I was not allowed to make a phone call or to chat online with my friends or family. So Ihad to write a letter to my family, telling them all about the upset results. But you know what, I was intended to ask help from my family at the beginning of the letter, but as the letter developed, Ifound out that I was reliving them about the bad news in the end!

Task 2 Agree or not: people should always remain honest.

Well, I disagree with the idea that people should always remain honest. Although honesty is a precious personal quality, I think there might be some exceptions where lies might be a better choice.

Take this case for example: a student is going to take a very important exam which might have great impact on his whole life. Unfortunately, one of his families died of an accident in that moment. In this situation, I mean, within this kind of context, holding back this information from him or being dishonest to him might be appropriate because otherwise, this student might be greatly distracted from his crucial exam.

The government should rebuild the city.

Well, I do agree with the idea that the government should rebuild the city, and I’ve got a couple of reasons to name.

First of all, rebuilding the old city is very necessary update the outdated infrastructure from which many urban problems arise. for example, traffic jam is a major problem in many cities in China, and the reason behind it as I see is the backward public traffic system which needs rebuilding.

Moreover, replacing old architectures with modern and new ones can improve the living standards of its residents. Modern urban design and arrangement makes people’s life easier and more comfortable.

Task 1 Describe a difficulty you once met. Explain how you overcome this difficulty. Give specific details and examples to support your answer.

Well, I’d like to talk about the difficulty that I met during my preparation for GRE test in my sophomore year.

You see, the first and also the most difficult part of the preparation for me is to memorize about 20,000 new English words. It’s an arduous and also tedious task and I had to stay in the library and just keep doing it for many hours a day. It’s not an easy task. But I kept myself cool and patient since I knew that what I was doing was nothing but pursuing my dream, so I never lost my motivation. I just kept memorizing and I made it at last. When looking back, I am really proud of my persistence.

College students should not be allowed to keep pets in their dormitories.

Well, I quite agree with the idea that pets should not be allowed to be kept in the dorms. And I‘ve got a couple of reasons to name.

First of all, college students are supposed to have not that time to take care of pet. You see, college life is rather busy and chaotic; many students don’t have enough time to finish their assignment not to mention they can spare any extra time to keep a pet. Besides, when a semester ends, it could be a real problem how to dispose these animals.

Moreover, pets sometimes make troubles and interrupt other students’ life in their dorms. youknow ,I don’t like cats, so I would surely disagree when my roommate wants to keep a cat in our room.

Task 2 It’s not good for first year students to live in the same dormitory with senior students. Well, I tend to disagree with the idea that it’s not appropriate for the freshmen to live withsenior ones in the same dormitory. I’ve got a couple of reasons to name.

First of all, freshmen could get a lot of help and guidance from their seniorroommates. You see, senior students always have got more experience about campus life and academic courses than the freshmen do. So they can help the freshmen to make plans and arrangements in advance about their future life.

Moreover, living in the same dorm with senior students means freshmen could have the chance to know more people and make more friends. You see, otherwise, they are less likely to make friends with senior ones and more likely to know only students of the same grade.

Watching sports programs on television is not a good use of time.

Well, I cannot agree with the idea that watching sports programs on TV is not a good use of time. I’ve got a couple of reasons to name.

First of all, watching sports programs on TV is a good way for entertainment. You see, it’s safe and convenient and economic compared with ways like car racing or something like that.

Moreover, sports are also educational, I mean, people can learn a lot from sports. You see, I am basketball fan myself. My favorite team in NBA is Miami heat. I think I’ve learnt a lot through watching every single game of its play-offs. I learned how to behave among intense competition, how to persist in front of adversity, and how to win a game with your teammates.

Some people think students should study in classrooms and others believe they should visit museum and zoo, which one do you like?

Well, although learning by visiting museums and zoos sound more interesting to me, I believe that learning in traditional classrooms might be a reasonable and rational choice.

First of all, traditional education in classrooms is typical of teachingabout knowledge of well-organized structure. I mean, traditional education is more systematic and inclusive. In contrast, museums and zoos might only teach us knowledge in limited fields.

Moreover, learning by visiting museums and zoos seems to be costly and perhaps not that many students can afford it. While learning in classrooms might be less expensive.

Finally, it’s unfair for students living in countryside if education should be conducted in museums and zoos because there are few museums and zoos in countryside area.

Task 1 你喜欢和你意见一致的朋友还是喜欢和你意见不同的人做朋友。

Well, I prefer to make friends with people who share different opinions with me.

The main reason is that it’s challenging and also beneficial for me to share different attitudes or opinions with my friends. You see, by debating or arguing about certain topics, we can have deeper understanding of the topic and thus better answers to all kinds of questions. This kind of communication can make us wiser and more informed.

On the other hand, make friends with people who always share the same opinions and values is supposed to be boring. I cannot imagine how they are going to discuss something if they already know the other’s opinion before they ever speak.

Task 1 Assignment 很多时，用什么strategy来保证按时完成作业 on schedule.

Well, personally, I’ve got two strategies to allocate my time among various tasks.

The first one, first things go first. Before Ibeginworking, I would like to figure out a priority list by evaluating each of the tasks thatI’m going to handle with. In this way, I can have a clear view of the sequence of my work and Ijust have to treat each of them in order.

The second one is making no optimistic estimate. When estimating how long I’m going to finish a certain task, I prefer to be very cautious, very conservative. I always plan in case the worst. I mean, I prefer to think of the worst situation in advance.

Task 2 你喜欢outdoor activity 还是indoor activity such as yoga.

Well, personally, I prefer indoor activities for the following reasons.

First of all, indoor activities are free from the influence of weather and other outdoor factors. For example, one of my favorite sports is badminton. You know, badminton as a sport is very sensitive to environmental conditions, especially wind and light. I mean, a rain or a blast of wind can easily ruin a badminton game.

Moreover, indoor activities like yoga are more convenient compared with outdoor ones.

Task 1 Agree or not: 学校要求每年40hours的community service 是否有必要

Well, I think 40 hours community service is very necessary and actually beneficial for students. And I’ve got a couple of reasons to name.

First of all, community service reminds us that we should be grateful to the community where we live in. As far as I’m concerned, many people in my neighborhood helped me a lot as I grew up. So it’s my turn to show my gratitude and appreciation of their selfless assistance.

Moreover, community service is also a good chance to develop students’ social skills. You see, we don’t have that many chances to get along with people of various careers and characteristics on campus, that means our social skills are limited to some extent. So getting along with people in the community does good to improve our social skills.

Task 2 一个学校成功与否是否取决于它有很多的textbook

Well, personally, Idon’t see much relationship between a successful school and the number of textbooks it provides.

You see, school is intended to educate students. And the achievement of a school should always be evaluated by how much its students have learned and how educated their students are. So, thequantity of textbooks don’t necessarily mean the quality of education, and thus has nothing to do with a school’s success.

Moreover, too many textbooks can sometimes be a waste of resources. You see, students usually don’t have much time to learn many subjects at the same time. You know, when I was in high school, many textbooks are useless since we don’t have much time to read it, so they are a kind of waste of money for me.

Task 1 Describe one way to improve the system of education in your country.

Well, my suggestion to improve the education system in my country is to cultivate more teachers of high levels.

You see, there is a lack of good teachers in my country, especially in those less-developed areas. So the education system is uneven geologically. If we have enough number of good qualified teachers, we don’t have to worry about students in less-developed areas.

Moreover, teachers are always the critical part in an education system. If teachers are equipped with more knowledge and better methods of teaching, we students will surely study more efficiently and with more interest.

Task 2 Reading books or listening to audio books, which do you prefer?

Well, I prefer listening to audio books than reading books, and I’ve got a couple of reasons to name.

First of all, listening to audio books might be more convenient than reading books. You see, I have a personal habit that I listen to audio books with all lights turned offbefore I sleep just like many listento lullaby before sleeping. You see, in this case, audio books is more convenient.

Moreover, audio books are more environmental friendly. Books are usually made from wood, and this process often results in damage to nature. While to make audio books doesn’t consume much resource, and it’s economical as well.

Task 1 advantages and disadvantages of eating in class.

Well, if there were any advantages of eating in class, I guess the few advantages might be that students do need to go hungry in class.

However, I think eating in class has much more disadvantages.

You see, first of all, eating in class might distract one’s focus and sometimesinterruptother people.

Moreover, if a student is caught eating in class by the teacher, he or she will probably get punished for it because eating in class is often considered lacking respect for the teacher. At least, this situation really happened to me when Iwas a primary pupil and I have to say it’s very common.

Task 2 some people like collecting old things such as newspaper. How about you, explain.

Well, althoughI don’t have any collection of old things, I think it’s very interesting and desirable to collect old things if possible.

You see, old things record history and they remind people of the past which might bear certain special meaning to them. So I could fully understand the reason for people to collect things. Actually, my grandpa told me when he was young, he had collected many matchbox covers but he lost it afterwards.

Moreover, some collection might have economic value. Although selling old things might not be the original intention of collecting them, I heard somewhere that people sometimesexchange their collections for money in certain cases.

Task 1 If your high school has after-school activities, which activities would you like to choose? Well, you know, I’m a basketball fan, and I really enjoy playing basketball with my friends. If there’s any sports activity like basketball, I would surely join in.

You see, physical exercise of proper amountis very good for me to keep fit and stay healthy. You see, I used to be a little bit overweight, but since I’ve kept playing sports for several years, I’ve been much stronger, and I’ve got a pretty good figure now.

Moreover, playing sports is also a good chance to make new friends. You see, usually people tend to be relaxed and light-hearted when playing sports. For example, when I play basketball with my friends, we usually have some interesting conversations. So, I can get socially well done by playing sports with my classmates.

Task 2 In the future, people will read less books, agree or disagree?

Well, although books have its unique and undeniable value, Istill believe that people will read less books in the future. I’ve got a couple of reasons to name.

First of all, multi-media combined with internet and e-products is a competitive match for books. People nowadays prefer multimedia than books because multimedia is more accessible and ready to be understood while books are sometimes difficult and time-consuming to read.

Moreover, you see, people in modern time lead a life of a much faster pace than in the past. And people have to spend more time to work, to earn money for a living. Thus, there will be less time left for them to read books.

Task 1 选择你学习过的两所学校，描述他们的不同。

Well, I used to study in RUDONG High school and GUBA Junior High School before I went to college. These two schools are different in many ways.

First of all, RUDONG high school is located in the county seat which is much more flourishing than the little town where GUBA junior high is in. Moreover, high school has a much larger and much more nice campus compared with the little junior high school.

Anyway, I think the most important difference between them is the totally distinctivelearningatmosphere. You see, students in high school are required to finish loads of homework every day, and almost everybody is very stressed about their academic performance, while in junior high, life was much easier. I didn’t need to worry about too much when I was in junior high.

Task 2 现在的电子产品上市，你是喜欢以上是就买还是喜欢过一段时间再买。

Well, I don’t think it is necessary of wise to buy the e-products as soon as they are put into market.

My main reason is that, you see, usually, the price of e-products like computers and mobile phones decreases sharply over time. That means, the later you buy the product after it’s put into market, the cheaper price you have to pay to own it.

Moreover, e-products develop rapidly over time in terms of the technology applied. Almost every day sees a new model come into being. It’s highly possible that you can buy a technically more advanced model with the same amount of money if you could just wait for several weeks.

Task 1 One of your friends has been offered a job in a town far away from your home. Do you think your friend should take this job? Why r why not?

Well, I prefer to suggest my friend to take this job. I’ve got a couple of reasons to name.

First of all, you know, nowadays, at least in my country, it is not that easy to find a good job, even for students of master degrees, not to mention those of bachelor degrees. So I tend to suggest him to cherish this opportunity and just grasp it. Otherwise, he could regret in the future.

Moreover, I believe that people tend to be dependent or less motivated if they live with their families for too long or live in an easy environment for too long. So I think it’s good for him to build his independent character if he can work far away from his home.

Task 2 When they are studying to prepare for an exam, some students like to study with other people, while others like to study alone. Which do you prefer and why?

Well, Iprefer to study alone when I’m preparing for an exam. And I’ve got a couple of reasons to name.

First of all, studying alone means thatIcan hardly be interrupted by other students, thus I can concentrate myself on the preparation. On the contrary, students are susceptible to other’s behavior if they study in a group.

Moreover, personally, I don’t want to depend on others for things like exams. You see, when getting no acquaintances around, I have to ask myself for help if I meet with some difficult questions. In this way, I can have a deeper understanding of what I’m supposed to master.

First of all, you know, I am a big fan of LeBron James. He is my favorite basketball star. I really admire him for both his super basketball talent and his sports spirit. If I can work as a staff of his team, Miami Heat, I will have the chances to make direct contacts with him andI could know more about him.

Moreover, I could make good use of what I have learnt about basketball throughout these years if I work in a basketball team. I believe this will be fantastic experience for me there.

Task 2 one long period of a whole week or several periods and several times for aweek, which do you prefer?

Well, I think it’s a great idea to study in several periods and several times for a week. And I’ve got a couple of reasons to name.

First of all, as far as I’m concerned, a short rest or interval is an efficient way of using time. you see, short breaks such as a half day are just enough for me to have a full rest and prepare myself for the following work, and I won’t waste every single second since it’s so precious to me. On the other hand,

Task 1 你喜欢到哪里go shopping?

Well, personally, I like to go shopping in the outlet malls. And I’ve got a couple of reasons to name.

First of all, Icanbuy some real bargains there. Most commodities there are on sale, and some even are up to ninety percent off. Actually, one week ago, I just bought a pair of shoes with Y 360 which is less than half of the original price.

Moreover, outlet malls are usually very big and inclusive. I can just go to one outlet mall and buy all things that I want to buy. So, you see, it’s very convenient to go shopping there.

Task 2 你是否觉得it is important to study the history from ancestors.

Well, I do think that it is important to study history from our ancestors. And I’ve got a couple of reasons to name.

First of all, learning history can teach us how to behave or make responses in certain situations. What we are facing or thinking about right now could have already happened in the past in a similar way. So the responses and answers of our ancestors are really good lessonsthat we can learn from.

Moreover, I think history teaches me that I should cherish the life that I am living right now. You see, my grandma told me that she often starved when she was young. So I never take my food for granted.

Well, I would like to say the compute is a great tool for me and it hasreally made my life easier. I have a couple of reasons to name.

First of all, you see, computers are very helpful for my study. For example, whenI need to check some information to solve certain problems, I could just turn on my laptop and search the internet. And I can also learn English more efficiently with my computer.

Moreover, computers are also good toolsthat make entertainment easy. I can watch movies and listen to music with my computer. And also, playing computer games with my friends is always of great fun to me.

Task 2 当遇到困难的时候是自己做还是找大家一起做？

Well, I prefer to ask myself for help when I first meet with something difficult. Only when I am sure that I can never figure out the problem alone, I will then turn to others for help. And I’ve got a couple of reasons to name.

First of all, you see, I don’t like myself to be dependent on others all the time. People always meet with difficulties. It’s nothing but commonplace. Soit will upsetother people if I always ask them for help once I meet with something difficult.

Moreover, I think asking oneself for help as a habit can develop one’s individual capabilities. You see, by forcing oneself to face the problem instead of avoiding or escaping from them, he or she can get an opportunity to challenge and then improve himself.

First of all, cell phones make it possible for us to make instant contacts with people wherever they are to share something with them. For example, when someone feels homesick, he or she can just simply make a phone call to his family, which can greatly relieve his sadness.

Moreover, cell phones nowadays are no longer single-function device, on the contrary, cell phones are such integrated and multi-function devices that you can read novels, play games，take photos, and search the internet with such a tiny and smart thing as a cell phone.

Well, I think artists and musicians play an important role in our society. And I’ve got a couple of reasons to name.

Describe a subject that you think is very important, but you are not interested in. please include details to explain why it is important and difficult to you.

Well, I have to say engineering thermodynamics is one the subjects that I think are really important but I am not interested in.

You see, I am a college student majoring in energy and power engineering. and engineering thermodynamics is one the three fundamental subjects for every single student majored in this field. So it’s obviously very important. But I do not like it because it’s too abstract too learn. I can hardly see any applications of the knowledge mentioned in this subject. That is why I think it is very boring and thus I do not have much motivation to learn it. Because I’m not interested in it, I got a pretty low score in the exam of this subject.

Task 2 Do you prefer to watch movies in the cinema or at home? why?

Well, Iprefer to watch movies in cinema for the following reasons.

First of all, you can always watch the latest and most fashionable movies in cinema, while you can hardly download any latest movies from internet.

Moreover, watching movies in cinema is of completely different effects compared with watching movies at home. You see, the architecture of cinemas is specifically designed to create wonderful visual and audio effect of a movie which you can never enjoy from a computer at home.

Finally, I think we should pay for the directors and actors who provide us with so many great movies.
