新托福口语探秘：Question Five

Well, I guess it’s really up to you and the audience then

It’s for the people who will watch can decide which one is better

I must say the classics have been the big money makers for us

A kind of expression where the speaker is very sure of the information

Well, I think you have answered your own question

You don't need to listen opinion anymore

Your advice sounds good

BY hearing the suggestion , you think it the best option

Ok you have convinced me

The listener was successfully persuaded by the speaker

IV. Work Shift

I’m really happy with all the terms and conditions, but I have one important decision to make.

Have to make an confirmation which is necessary to make the decision

Well, it’s really not a big problem ; however, my employer wants to know during my first week ,what schedule I want to work for the rest of the summer.

It’s not a big deal , the employer just needs to know the schedule in the first week

They are two different schedules and because of the length there will be no rotations.

There are two things which the speaker can choose from

Here are my choices

The following are the things that I can think about

Well, they both sound great to me

It hard to select cause two of them are good

Definitely the ten days, and five days off

Surely this is the best choice

I know that shifts sounds really great!

This actually means that the time of work is really fascinating

I tend to like the regular Monday to Friday shift

Monday to Friday shift is the better time to choose

You have a point

The speaker is making sense, very sensible

V. Working Holiday or Traveling

If you already know where you want to go ,what decision do you have to make?

What else should you think about ? You are already decided

I must make up my mind whether to spend my time there traveling and seeing the sights, or whether to spend my time on a working holiday?

Have to make the decision in choosing which one is worthy

Both ideas are appealing to me

These two choices are attracting me ,having a hard time to choose which one is better.

I think it would be expensive .You helped me decide that I would rather take a working holiday.

The speaker did not do the decision himself, the listener made it for him

I have just decided at this moment not to continue my studies

Only this time that I made this decision to pursue my studies

VI. Mountain Climbing Trek

I’m a bit concerned about my fitness level. I’m going with the local climbing club and they have suggested that this climb has a medium fitness and skills level.

The speaker is worried that maybe he/she is not healthy enough

I guess by biggest concern is slowing down the group, and also getting in over my head with my lack of climbing skills.

Maybe the most important thing he is thinking about is wasting other people’s time in the group

Well, if you want my advice ,I’d go for a day hike in the novice level. Or ,why don't you take a climbing workshop instead?

If you are asking my suggestion whether which one to choose

You’re right. I think it should cancel. Thanks for the advice

Agreeing that the advice is the best way to do

VII. A Debate Club

I have already chosen my topic but I am having a hard time coming up with a good introduction in such a short time frame.

The speaker is still having trouble to do the debate because the time is limited

What do you think of the death sentence anyway?

What is the opinion about death penalty or capital punishment

Personally, I don't believe in it

Stating a personal opinion

Well, what if the person executed were innocent

The person who had the death penalty does not have anything to do with the crime

I have an idea on how you can start on your debate

I know what you have to do on your debate

What a great idea

Terrific thing!
