新托福口语真题 | “科技社媒类”面试题第4小问解析

新托福口语题型2：Take an Interview（虚拟面试）

• 题量：4个渐进式问题，围绕同一主题（例如：志愿服务、个人经历、观点等）

• 像一个渐入佳境的即兴访谈，从“闲聊”到深入观点

• 作答时间：每题45秒，无准备时间，问题连问连答

• Question 4 立场类：最难，表达观点并给理由（例：你认为哪种方式更好？为啥？）

  

Digital Device Usage（数字设备使用）

Social Media（社交媒体）

【两边都提一下】：部分同意的立场 

而如果是【一边倒】的立场，示例：

Digital Devices Q4

Do you agree that too much technology negatively impacts face-to-face social interactions?

完全同意——太多科技确实负面影响面对面交流

I completely agree that too much technology negatively impacts face-to-face social interactions.

For many people, especially young people, overusing devices reduces real-life conversations because they get too comfortable/comfy communicating through screens.

For example, I've seen my friends sitting together at a café, but each of them is scrolling through their own phone instead of talking. 

I mean, they're physically together but mentally apart; it's like they forget how to have a real conversation.

Plus, even when we hang out, someone always checks their phone every few minutes. 

So, I believe technology is actually weakening our ability to connect face-to-face.

核心论点： 技术让人们习惯了屏幕交流，逐渐"忘记"了面对面聊天和观察对方表情、语气的能力。

Social Media Q4

Do you agree that social media has more negative effects than positive ones on society?

完全同意——社媒确实对社会负面影响大于正面

Yes, I agree that social media has more negative effects than positive ones on society.

For society as a whole, the downsides — like anxiety, misinformation, and division — outweigh the benefitsbecause they affect millions of people every day.

For example, my friend constantly compares her life to the perfect posts she sees online, which makes her feel insecure and unhappy. 

Plus, false news spreads faster than ever, like during the pandemic, so many people believed fake health advice. 

Also, although social media helps people stay connected, the harm it causes to mental health and trust is just too big to ignore. 

So, I'd say the negatives are clearly greater. 

核心论点： 社媒的负面影响（焦虑、假新闻、社会分裂）影响范围广、程度深，其正面价值（连接彼此）不足以抵消这些伤害。
