托福綜合口語中不論是閱讀還是聽力都要認真把握，因為這些材料中所包含的內容就是題目要考察的，如果大家在口語表述中漏掉了內容，那么口語考試可能就會被扣分。所以筆記記錄和細節把握是托福綜合口語的難點。

一.托福口語難點解析

1.綜合口語需要把握細節

特別是Task3這種校園話題，在conversation中，男生和女生閑聊的內容會更多些，personal information就會變得更多，記筆記的時候就會更忙。

2.綜合口語筆記難做

平時練習的時候大家可能沒有感覺，但是到了考場就會有一種突如其來的孤獨感：文本，聽力原文什么都沒有，只有筆記和自己相依為命。

所以筆記是非常非常重要的。

3.綜合口語每道題重點不同

Task3： 細節

Task4： 故事主干

Task5： 個人原因闡述

Task6： 兩個例子的完整性

在記筆記的時候，每一個task的側重點都會有不同，請同學們一定注意。

尤其是task6，切忌狂記，一定要有選擇性的去記筆記。

二.實例解析托福綜合口語難點

題目：Using the examples from the lecture, explain two ways the railroad system changed business in the United States.

部分原文：

Ok, so we’ve been talking about various factors that have changed the United States’ economy. One especially important factor is the development of railroads. When the railroad system expended to almost the US, it fundamentally changed the way business perform in this country.

For one thing, it expanded and the railroad enable companies to start selling their goods to all of the country. Since trains could now transport merchandise all over US, companies could now sell good to customers pretty much anywhere of the country.

For example. There was a big company that sold quartz. The company started in a big city. And before the development of railroad, the company could only sell its quartz to people living in or near the city. But when the railroad expanded, the company could load their quartz on trains and have it delivered to all parts of the country.

第一段有沒有同學很想不由自主記筆記的?但是你記完了就會發現：沒有任何用!因為第一段是背景知識的交代和細節闡示。所以第一段基本上：不用記!那從哪里開始?第二段!因為從第二段開始，professor才開始詳細講述railroad給美國經濟帶來的實際性的好處，所以，第二段才有關鍵信息涵蓋在內。

總的來說，筆記和細節是托福綜合口語的難點，但是細分開來，每道綜合口語題所考察的重點都不一樣，所以大家除了要努力把握口語聽力和閱讀細節的內容外，還要注意每道題的考察重點。
