2011年托福考試口語機經模擬試題(3)

　　1、What qualities should a leader have?

　　2、Do you agree or disagree: people should always tell the truth?

　　3、Reading：大學準備關閉學生的art gallery。

　　Listening: 男生反對該決議：(1.) 該大學藝術系學生多，作品來源不成問題。( 2.) 學校的宣傳做得不好，經常是展覽結束后了，才有介紹文章出來，大家都不知道有展覽。問的是男生的觀點和理由。

　　附錄近似原文：

　　W: Did you read the school newspaper? The art galley will be closed in a few days.

　　M: Hum, I knew the decision. You know what? I am going to write an e-mail to Dean to complain about this plan.

　　W: So, what are you complaining about? It looks they have done nothing wrong about it. You know, not too many art majors take the advantage of the gallery and display their works there.

　　M: Ah, that is true, obviously. But...but they see only part of the truth.

　　W: What do you mean?'

　　M: Well, let me put it this way. The reason that many majors don't display their works in the gallery is that they take the chance of exhibiting in the gallery very seriously. So they always wait until everything is perfect before sending their works to the exhibition.

　　W: Aha, I didn't know it before. But how would you explain that only very few students come to the gallery even during the period of exhibition?

　　M: We will probably blame the school for its poor communication. The publicity of new exhibitions is often late and inaccurate. There were even quite a few times that when we finally saw the introduction of an art display in the school newspaper, the exhibition was over already.

　　The man expresses his opinion of the university's plan. Please state his opinion and explain the reasons he gives for holding that opinion.

　　4、Reading: 心理學一概念：講你希望對方成為什么樣的人，你就應該按照你希望他(她)成為的那個樣子去對待他(她)。

　　Listening: 一個實驗，有一組隨機挑選的小學生，但教師被告知他們(她們)都是是精挑細選的優秀生。老師因此努力教學，經常鼓勵，小學生短期內成績提高。所以證明了閱讀材料中理論的正確性。

　　5、男生參加校emergency response team，需要大量訓練以達到國家標準，沒有時間做literature reading，為此苦惱不已。女生給出兩個解決辦法：1. 放棄這個隊明年再重新加入。男生說不行，如果這樣，他隊內位置會被別人取代。2. 與director談，要求用兩學期而非一學期完成訓練。問題是總結男生的問題和女生的建議，并說說自己的看法。

　　6、是一個講座。商品價格與需求成反比關系。商品價格升高，需要下降，比如咖啡。但有例外，如面包。面包在18世紀的英國是最便宜的主食。相比肉而言，無論面包怎么貴，都比肉便宜，所以需求量都不會下降。反而價格上漲會使得更多的人去買面包。
