众所周知，为了模拟北美大学课堂的学术气氛和学生在校园生活的方方面面，新托福考试的口语部分首次允许考生做课堂笔记（笔记考完要上交，但笔记不算分）、并要求考生能够发表自己的意见和看法，而且必须具备对教授推荐的参考书写出读书报告、阐明自己观点的能力以及其他处理校园生活中可能遇到的各种情况的能力。下面沈阳托福培训通途国际英语的小编就专门对如何在托福口语Task1,2中做笔记的问题做深入地分析和探讨。

Note-taking in the Independent Task
该部分要求考生就某一自己熟悉的话题阐述自己的观点。一类问题是自由回答间题（Free-choice Response），如：If you could have any job in the world, what would it be? Use details to support your. response；另一类是选择类问题（Paired-choice Response），如：Do you like to try new kinds of food or eat the same kind of food all the time? Use details and examples to support your response,准备时间为15秒，回答问题时间为45秒。问题本身会被朗读出来，且同时出现在屏幕上。通途国际英语的小编在此提示同学们，其实可以不用理会电脑的朗读，迅速阅读完问题。这样可以争取大概5秒，那么在这大约20秒内，同学们就可以在草稿纸上迅速记下自己所要表达的关键信息。这里记笔记的方法为“TST表格”。TST ( Topic-Supporting ideas--Transitions）意思是考生须在草稿纸上用一到两个词写下欲表达的Topic（主题），Supporting ideas（分论点）和Transitions（信号词）。下面试举一例：

Question:

Where would you want to be professionally in ten years? Use details to support your response.

考生应迅速在纸上写下“own bus...”、“master”、“work com...”、“start”等信息见以下TST( Topic—Supporting ideas—Transitions )表格。

Topic statement: own bus... (I would like to own my own business)
Supporting ideas: ( How I will work toward owning my business)

* master (Will get master's in business )

* work com... (Will work in company while planning my business)

* start (Will start my own business when I am ready)
Transitions: 10 next because 3 within 10 y (可用y代替years)

Sample Answer

In ten years I would like to win an import business of my own. Next year, I will be starting a master's program in business with a specialization in entrepreneurship. I will be getting this degree because I hope to start my own business and make it successful someday. After I finish my master's degree
three years from now, I will most likely take a position in another company for a few years to make some money and to spend some time planning my own business. Within ten years, I hope to own my own company and be on the way to making it a success.
