小编为大家整理的关于2014年8月23日托福口语预测，希望对大家有所帮助。

 

  Task 1: Describe what your life would be like if you were banned from using your cellphone for a month. Give specific details and examples in your response.

    Sample：

    It’d be horrible if I’m not allowed to use my cellphone for an entire month.

    First, people do everything nowadays on their cellphone. Take myself for example. All my class schedules are on my phone. Sometimes I take audio notes in a class that might be going too fast for me which helps enormously.

    Also, when it comes to communication, cellphones are extremely important for us if not crucial. Especially in the case of an emergency. I can call or text my parents for help. For example, if it rains and I don’t have an umbrella with me, I can call my parents so they can pick me up after school

 

    Task 2: Talk about an activity you enjoy doing with your family. Why do you enjoy this activity?

    Sample：

    I enjoyed camping with my family the most. First of all, spending a weekend camping gives us a chance to take a break from buildings and streets in the city. It’s wonderful to be in the nature and see some wild animals. We see lots of deer on our trips. Second, camping taught me many life skills. I learned how to fish, start a fire and navigate without a compass. I rarely use these skills, but I think it’s nice to have them. Lastly, the long hikes we took on our camping trips made me a tougher person both mentally and physically.

    Task 3: Do you agree or disagree with the statement that playing video games is a waste of time.

    Sample：

    I do believe that playing video games is a waste of time. This is a true story, from my own life. In my first year in high school, I was addicted to video games. I played them all the time and I wasn’t studying enough. I was failing chemistry. That was my hardest class. So this was a conflict for me, because I wanted a good job when I grew up, and I believed, I knew, that if you want a good career, you got to do well in school. I quit playing after I thought about it long and hard. A few months later, I saw great improvement with my grade, and I haven’t played much even since.

 

    Task4:

    讲eggs communication before hatched对他们survival的重要性，一是宝宝之间的交流：保证每个蛋同时孵化，所以每个鸭子宝宝不会被妈妈 left over ，不被left behind，二是 baby与妈妈之间的交流，让他们的妈妈能够发现他们，举了鳄鱼的例子，鳄鱼的卵被heavy mugs cover着，要被他们的妈妈发现才能存活下去。

 

    Task5:

    教授说由于动物在 lay eggs 后不久就会离巢，所以对于新生的小 baby 来说，食物 foodsupply 就是一个很大的问题，为了解决这个问题，动物们通常有两种做法：1. collect and store

    food 在 eggs 周围，举例 wasp 就是这样做的，这样它们的孩子一出生就会有食物吃;2. 选择一个有足够食物供应的地方建巢，比如：蝴蝶会evaluate 一些location然后做出决定，这样当它们的孩子出生后，也是比较容易找到食物的。
