題目簡介：
Reading part Listening part
增加fine art course
理由：
l work requires various ability,
l good for work.
l help students relax. 學校要求必修3個藝術課，音樂舞蹈表演雕塑，男的不同意
理由：
l 學生失去了更多自由選課機會
不能選更多和他學banking, 要上finance 的課
l 不是每個人都對藝術有天分喜歡上這些課，他根本不enjoy雕塑，浪費，stressful
回答演示1：
From the reading material, we know that the college is going to add music, dance and sculpture as compulsory courses. the man in the conversation thinks that this is a bad idea. First, he majors in banking and has to take finance class，he has to take the fine art courses, and he would lose some opportunities to choose the courses that he needs. Also, he points out that he doesn’t enjoy sculpture at all, it would help students relax, not everyone has the talent about arts. He has to take these courses, it will be a waste of time and make him stressful.
答案解析：
新託福口語part3中，通常需要考生將主要人物的態度以及兩個理由清楚地表達出來，我們可以看到在這個範例中，雖然考生將reading part和listening part 中重要資訊都涵蓋在答案裡，而且沒有出現任何明顯的語法錯誤，但是因為缺少必要的邏輯連線詞，整個表達給我們一種非常凌亂的感覺，毫無任何連貫和清晰可言。這也是很多考生之所以雖然將筆記記得非常詳細，卻依然拿不到理想分數的主要原因。
回答演示2：
From the reading material, we know that the college is going to add music, dance and sculpture as compulsory courses. However, the man in the conversation thinks that this is a bad idea, due to the following reasons. First, considering that he majors in banking and has to take finance class， he would lose some opportunities to choose the courses that he needs, if he had to take the fine art courses. Also, he points out that he doesn’t enjoy sculpture at all even though it would help students relax, for not everyone has the talent about arts. If he had to take these courses, it would be a waste of time and make him stressful. 新託福口語技巧：清晰和連貫的語言能力
答案解析：
在這個回答範例中，我們在原來答案的基礎上加入了若干表示原因，讓步，條件邏輯關係的連線詞，構成了狀語從句，可以很明顯感到改動後的答案體現了強烈的邏輯感，前後句的關係更加緊密，語意立刻變得清晰，連貫。

題目簡介：

哲學系新舉措：中午在dining hall 舉行table talk，並讓讓教授加入午餐，為了
l education benefit
l network and friendship。學生們都贊成 女孩很同意因為：
l 教授平時很忙，office hour很少，這個program提供機會向教授提問和探討課程的問題
l 她現在還不是很熟悉這些同學，可以利用table time 來交流
回答演示：
The school has implemented a new proposal that they are going to set up a table talk at lunch time in the dining hall, when the professor will be invited to join the lunch. And the woman holds a positive view towards the announcement for the following reasons. First, if the professor could sit with them, the program would provides a chance for the students to ask questions in order to understand the courses, because the professor is normally very busy and although they could use the office hour, it is not enough for all the students to talk to the professor. Another reason is that since she hasn’t known other students very well yet，the table talk could help to enhance the relationship among students , for it would offer a chance for students to communicate and share similar ideas and hobbies.

學校將停止提供熱早餐
理由：
l 冷的食物更健康
l 限制早餐食物種類更省錢 女孩不同意因為：
l 熱的食物寒冷的天氣對身體更好
l 去校園外買滿意的食物更貴
回答演示：
The school has implemented a new policy that the students will be offered cold breakfast foods instead of hot ones. And the woman is totally against the announcement. The first reason she gives is that although cold foods are usually healthy, hot foods like hot cereal are sometimes even better for health , in case that it’s on cold morning. And the second one is based on the fact that the new policy will make students spend more money instead of saving money. This is because when the students can’t buy foods they want on campus, they’re going to get them off campus, which means they will have to pay more money to get the expensive foods.
通過以上的陳述以及範例講解，希望考生們可以充分體會並理解，在口語表達的清晰與連貫性上，四大狀語從句所起的至關重要的作用，並在考試中有效運用，以助考生們獲得理想成績。
