新托福iBT 口语黄金80题：托福口语主要是考察考生的词汇量、语法和逻辑思维速度和能力。如果能针对一些常考易考题型先在考前做一些针对性的训练，效果可能会更加显著，下面是“新托福iBT 口语黄金80题”，希望同学们针对练习。
1. 说出你认为对你最有用的一本书，并解释原因。
The most important book for me is Harry Potter. Yes, I am a big Harry Potter fan, and I have read the whole Harry Potter series for over ten times. Harry Potter is important for me because it enlarges my imagination when I was in my childhood. And as I grow up, I still love reading it, since Harry Potter series provide me a magical world to escape when I am bored of our real world.
2. 电视对于现代社会有正面作用还是负面作用，选择其中之一并解释原因。
In my opinion, television has more positive effects towards the modern society than its negative sides. First, from the news broadcasting in the television, we can know what is happening in the outside world even without stepping out our living room with television in it. And second, watching television with family members after supper is a good way to relax after a hard day’s work.
3. Describe the most important decision that you made in your life.
The most important decision that I have made in my life is to choose journalism as my major in university. You know that I dreamed to be a journalist when I was still in my high school. Although my parents rejected my choice of that, I insisted to it. During the studies in university, I learned hard and practiced as much as I could. I got the highest GPA in my grade and when I graduated from university, my dream of childhood came true.
4. Do you think the high school should teach music and art as other basic science?
I bet no one could deny that the main responsibility of a high school is to help its students develop academic abilities. But for a student himself, it is also very important to get fully educated in other fields like music and art as well as basic science. Music and art can help the students appreciate beauty in our lives and that will also increase the efficiency of their basic science study.
5. 空闲时间用来做什么?
I usually do three things to spend my spare time. The first is reading. I love reading, especially in a silent environment such as library. The second is doing sports. Every morning, I jog 3000 meters, and every weekend, I swim 2000 meters. This can make me healthier and energetic. And last thing I’d like to do when I am free is to eat out with friends. You may be surprised to know that I have tried all the restaurants in our community!
6. 打手机该不该在一些地方禁止?
I definitely think that the use of a mobile phone should be forbidden in some places, for example, library. The most common reason for people going to a library is to find a silent environment to read their favorite books without interruption. But if you receive a phone call in the library or just send out messages, the mobile phone will ring. This noise will surely interrupt others in the library. And I do not think it is very polite.
7. 描述一件自己印象深刻的celebration或者moment。
Speaking of celebrations, there is one day of the year that is second to none in our country, it is the first day of the year in lunar calendar, which is called the Spring Festival by most Chinese people. Even if you are indifferent with festive events, you can not resist the charm of a family reunion dinner which marks the defining feature of the Spring Festival. And during the dinner, family members make toasts for each other in order to wish for joy, peace, health and fortune for the next year.
8. Which one acts more influence on you newspaper, TV or teachers?
I definitely think that it is newspapers that influence me most among the three. I read newspaper everyday especially the Beijing Daily which is my favorite. I learn what is happening around or outside the school all by reading newspaper. And as a student of journalism, newspaper is just like textbook for me, I learn how to write news with it. So that’s why I think it influences me most.
9. Describe a social or politics celebration events in your culture.
Speaking of social celebration in my culture, there is one day of the year that is second to none, the Chinese New Year, which is also called the Spring Festival by most Chinese People. Even if you are indifferent with festive events, you can not resist the charm of a family reunion dinner which marks the defining feature of the Spring Festival. And family members make toasts for each other in order to wish for joy, peace, health and fortune for the next year.
10.政府是否应该资助建博物馆和剧院。说出你的观点和理由。
No one could deny that the main responsibility of government is to regulate its people. But it is also very important for the government to build public utilities like museums and theatres for example. We people pay a huge amount of tax every year to the government, we do not hope they use this sum of money only to regulate us, we hope they can return some profit to us. And in my opinion, building museums and theatres is a good way of that.
11.说出你所居住的城市中你最喜欢的地方，给出原因。
My favorite place in my city is the New Oriental Restaurant. The New Oriental restaurant is the largest restaurant in our city and it provides all kinds of food, from sea food to curry, and from sushi to barbeque. Though I am a picky gourmet, the New Oriental can make me satisfy. Besides, the New Oriental is accessible by several buses and subway lines and it hence can be reached within half an hour from my home, even during rush hour. The price of the New Oriental is very reasonable and the waiters there provide well rounded service. I love the NO.
12.你和朋友在一起的时候喜欢去哪个地方?为什么?

13.你是喜欢自己在家里吃还是去外面餐馆吃?为什么?
In my opinion, I definitely prefer to eat out. After a hard day’s work I have no mood cooking for myself, and eating out with my husband is a good choice for us. We need not care where to buy the groceries and who should do the clean up. And the second reason may be more important. I am a picky gourmet, and the restaurant can provide a wide variety of food choices for me which will definitely meet my demand. So that’s why I like it.
14.你通常喜欢去什么park或者public area。
My favorite public area is the NO
15.喜欢到大城市读书还是小城市读书。
I definitely prefer to study in a big city. The most common reason for us to study is to find a good job, and there are much more job opportunities in big cities than the small town. If I study in the big cities, I can do a part time job while studying, and seize the opportunity to work there after I graduate from university. Moreover, jobs in big cities can offer more decent salary. So that’s why I think big city is more attractive for me to study.
16.杂志,小说,诗歌,喜欢哪个
I definitely prefer reading novels among the three. Especially the fairy novels like Harry Potter for example. I can spend a whole day without eating or do anything else just reading novels. It is my favorite way of relaxation in my spare time. When I am reading novels, I immerse in the world depicted in it, and this can help me escape from the real world which is boring for me.
17.喜欢一个人住还是和室友住
I definitely prefer to live alone. I like singing, and if I am in good mood I will sing a song no matter where and no matter when. But my roommate could not tolerant my songs. She prefers to a quiet environment. Moreover, I am a neat freak, I could not bear there is any dirt in my dorm room. But my roommate cares little about the tidiness in our room. She never does the clean up of our dorm room and even worse, there’s always a mess up at her area.
18.和朋友在一起，喜欢在restaurant，caf还是在家
I definitely prefer to eat out in a restaurant when I’m together with my friends. As both of my parents have retired from work, they stay at home all day long. So it will not be convenient for we friends have a close chat including some secrets of us at home. More importantly, eating out at restaurant or caf means we do not have to care about shopping, cooking, or cleaning up. And then we can enjoy our time more relaxed.
19.Computer have improved our lives while others think computers have caused problems
Well, in my opinion I think computer does have more positive effects towards our lives than its negative sides. First, we can keep in touch more closely with the help of computer. For example, by using Emails or MSN, I can live messages to my friends in the United States no matter when. But before computer was invented, one have to wait nearly several months to get a letter or just a short message from friends abroad.
20.老师的character
In my opinion, a good teacher should have the following qualities: confident and kind. The teacher should be confident both of himself and his students. Every time he walks in the classroom, he should bring a strong feeling of authority, and makes his students feel a definite sense of trust. And the teachers should be kind to his students. If a teacher is too strict, his students would be afraid to ask questions, and that will decrease the efficiency of their study.
