新航道小编今天给托福考生带来的是一套针对独立口语的功夫：顺句驱动法，让大家能够在考场上滔滔不绝。一般在托福独立口语考场上，面对脑中空空的情况，同学们会有两种反应。

第 一种是疯狂输出：“我也不知道我在说什么反正我就是要把这45秒填满”；

第二种就是：“eh I think this …hm…I think that”。

      这两种情况当然都不可取，因为输出的（或者没输出的）都是无效的内容。无话可说第 一个原因，是原因想不到，思路的问题我们改天讨论。今天要解决的是有了reason之后的填充——一个更加重要的技能。因为一般来说，一个reason大家是能够想到的。如果填充做得好，一个reason可以讲到30s，加上main idea大概5s，第二句10s so easy。

顺句驱动

      何为顺句驱动？我们来看一个例子。Which teacher’s courses would you like to take? A teacher who is humorous or a teacher who is serious.

      立场：Humorous teacher

      原因：A humorous teacher’s class is interesting and can help us better focus on course content.

      很多同学到了第二句这里就乱了。要想保证我们能够稳定的输出，而不是看心情或者看题目发挥，我们应该有的放矢。第二句不是空想乱想，而是顺着reason出发，去解释reason当中的词/短语，比如Interesting, 比如better focus。

Interesting：tell jokes/connect theoretical knowledge with everyday life

Focus: pay attention to what the teacher is saying/listen to teachers attentively

      那么我们就得到了一个完整的reason。

      我们来提炼一下其中的原理。其实理论高度概括就一句话：用更细的细节来重复前一句的内容。就像一个套娃一样，外面最 大的是reason，里面的是解释和例子。

如何找细节

      那么问题来了，这个细节怎么找到呢？去描述。用what, where, who, when, how, how much, how long描述前面一句话某些内容的周边。再来一个例子，以2021年12月22日考试的题目为例：

      In college, some students tend to regularly review their notes, while others like to review their notes just before tests. State your choice and explain why.

立场：review notes before tests

Reason：more efficient

细节：（how efficient）memorize things faster

细节的细节：（who，what test，how faster, memorize what）myself, economics test, memorize dozens of terms such as …in an hour the night before the test

我们来看看什么情况下使用什么描述。

 情况一：需要解释的是名词

      这个就简单了。列举what即可。Some students prefer to make friends with people who are about the same age. Other students prefer to make friends with people of different ages. Which way do you prefer?

立场：same age

reason：similar interests and hobbies

细节：（what interests ）music, sports, art

情况二：需要解释的是形容词

      使用how系列。Some students prefer to make friends with people who are about the same age. Other students prefer to make friends with people of different ages. Which way do you prefer?

立场：different ages

reason: older friends more experienced—give reasonable advice

细节：（how experienced）enter the workforce earlier than us, know more about social rules

      总结——解决独立无话可说的秘诀（之一）就是顺句驱动：后一句永远从前一句出发，为其提供更细节的论述。
