中国考生的托福口语是托福考试中最难过的一关，所以好好备考是非常重要的，那么同学们在考前了解托福口语的基本结构，对于备考是非常有帮助单位，和出国留学网来看看托福口语考试基本结构和常考话题介绍。
TASK 1&2
第一部分（1-2题）：准备时间为15秒，考生答题时间为45秒。第1、2中的题目属于日常话题，这两道题本身难度比较小，所以考生特别需要注意的就是托福口语时间的分配问题，在这45秒的时间里，一般用5～6秒的时间完成topic sentence， 接下来的40秒时间内考生需要以每一个detail或者example不超过3-4句话的规律完成这个话题，也就是说考生需要大致20秒完成一个detail或example的表述。如果考生能在考前进行充分的准备，努力锻炼自己的托福口语思维，积累常用的details或examples，考试时就会从容许多。
TASK 3&4
第二部分（3-4题）：准备时间30秒，考生答题时间为60秒。这部分考试内容主要是情景题和学术题。考生在阅读的时候要注意认真记录主题和所支撑的观点。同时在TASK 3&4的托福听力进行中，考生要把握好其重点环节，也就是题中人物的观点以及他支持或反对的理由。另外，考生在表述过程中，答题结构一定要清楚，在练习时建议使用计时软件，多锻炼几次才能在考试规定的时间范围内把要点说全、说清楚。
TASK 5&6
第三部分（5-6题）：准备时间30秒，考生答题时间为60秒。最后的5、6道主要以听力材料为基础，要求考生回答相关问题。首先，考生掌控时间能力的强弱对这个部分成绩的高低至关重要。前两道考题的准备时间为15秒，考生回答时间为45秒；3、4考题的准备时间为30秒，考生回答时间则为60秒；最后两道题目的考生准备时间为20秒，考生回答时间为60秒。大部分考生在这一环节都反映口语部分的准备时间利用效率低而且作答比较仓促。
