对很多学生来说，口语是很大的一个难题。很多学生都希望能在短时间内提升自己的托福口语成绩，其实这里面是有技巧的。有一些经验可以借鉴。

Practice wherever you can and wheneveryou can。Any practice is good，whether you speak to someone who is a native Englishspeaker or not。

随时随地练习口语。

It's important to build your confidence.If possible，use simple English sentence structure that you know is correct，sothat you can concentrate on getting your message across。

以表达清晰为主，句型多样化为次。

Try to experiment with the English you know。Use words and phrases you know in new situations。Native English speakers are more likely to correct you if you use the wrong word than if you use the wrong grammar。Experimenting with vocabulary is a really good way of getting feed back。

大胆运用所掌握的词汇，不要过分拘泥于语法。

Try to respond to what people say to you。You can often get clues to what people think by looking at their body language。Respond to them in a natural way。

透过身体语言理解对方意思并作出回应。

Try not to translate from or into your own language。This takes too much time and will make you more hesitant。

尽量避免翻译。

If you forget a word，do what native English speakers do all the time，and say things that“fill”the conversation。This is better than being completely silent。Try using um or er，if you forget the word。

遇到不知该如何表达的时候，用一些常用词表示自己正在思考。

Don't speak too fast。It's important to use a natural rhythm when speaking English。But if you speak too fast，it will be difficult for people to understand you。

语速不要过快。

Try to relax when you speak。When you speak English at a normal speed，you will discover that most of the pronunciation skills，such as linking between words，will happen automatically。

　　托福口语中的三不要

　　一、不要机械背答案

　　ETS在判分口语的时候，会让判分员特别注意模板和背诵类型的答案，这些答案是会被压分的。考生们要特别小心。哪怕你已经准备了模板，也要加入适当的停顿，口头语，连词，来丰富自己的答案，让它更“个性化”。

　　二、语速不要太夸张

　　有好多同学为了展示自己的口语水平或者为了答全所有的论点，常常会提高语速。殊不知这么做在口语部分往往得不偿失。英语作为我们的第二语言，熟练程度不高，一旦提高语速，往往会造成发音不清，语法错误或人称误用的情况。所以，主页君建议大家:“正常语速，条理清晰”是佳的答题策略。

　　三、答案结构不要乱

　　托福口语里，一个好的答案肯定是一个结构清晰的答案。鼓励大家：一，多用简单句，少用复杂句。二，开门见山，指出观点或者文中论点，再加上例子或者个人看法，后再总结。
