2026 TOEFL 聽力的新變革

從 2026 年 1 月 21 日開始,TOEFL 聽力改為新的自適應(adaptive)格式,分成兩個模組。 每位考生都先做相同的路由模組(routing module),你的表現會決定你進入「較易」或「較難」的第二模組。

  • 兩個模組加起來的作答時間約 27 分鐘。
  • 畫面上會顯示當前模組的剩餘時間,每進入新模組計時會重新開始。
  • 所有題目中都混有算分與不算分(實驗題),你無法分辨哪些會計分。

路由模組是聽力的第一部分,也是最長的部分,裡面一定會包含四種題型的組合:

題型

說明

聆聽句子答題 (Choose a response)

你會聽到一句簡短的對話英文,接著從四個選項中選出最自然的回應。 正確答案可能是間接回答、非常間接但能解決問題的回應,或能讓對話繼續往下走的提問。

聆聽生活對話 (Listen to a conversation)

你會聽到兩位講者的短對話(20–30 秒),情境多為校園或日常生活。 每段對話後會有簡單題目,問你發生了什麼,或接下來可能會發生什麼。

聆聽校園公告 (Campus announcement)

你會聽到校園公告(20–30 秒),內容像是活動通知、服務變更或校園機會等。 題目會問主旨、重要細節,或聽者該做什麼。

聆聽學術演講 (Listen to an academic talk)

你會聽到約 90 秒的學術簡短講解,主題涵蓋心理、社會、歷史、經濟、藝術等。 跟對話或公告相比,這類題目通常有更多題數。 常見題型包括:主旨、細節、目的、推論、課堂接下來會做什麼等。

最多 29 分鐘

你在路由模組的表現會決定你進入哪一種第二模組:

簡單模組
  • 若正確率低於約 60%,系統會把你導向較簡單的模組。
  • 這個模組會有較多「聆聽句子答題 (Choose a response)」題型,以及額外的對話與校園公告。
  • 簡單模組中 **不會出現** 學術講課(academic talk)。
較難模組
  • 若正確率達到約 60% 或以上,你會進入較難的模組。
  • 這個模組會從少量「聆聽句子答題 (Choose a response)」開始,接著加入對話、公告與學術講課。
  • 因為內容較難,你需要準備更複雜的學術聽力與更多元的題型。

在聽力結束後,系統會顯示整份 TOEFL 的非正式分數。 正式成績會在幾天後出現在你的帳號中,可能會與當天看到的分數略有差異。

    Audio transcript

    Listen to a talk in a biology class.

    Today I’d like to examine a classic example of mutualism on tropical coral reefs—the partnership between clownfish and sea anemones.

    The anemone’s tentacles are armed with stinging cells that deter most predators, so a clownfish that lives among those tentacles gains a very safe home. In return, the fish defends the anemone from butterflyfish and other small grazers and, just as important, its wastes provide the anemone with nitrogen that fuels faster growth.

    But how does the clownfish avoid being stung itself? Before settling, juveniles perform a cautious dance, rubbing against the tentacles until they coat their skin with a layer of specialized mucus. This mucus chemically mimics the anemone’s own tissue, preventing the discharge of the stinging cells.

6 種 TOEFL 聽力題型

聽力測驗不只是在考你能不能聽懂英文對話或課堂講解, 也要你能處理不同種類的題型。 好在 TOEFL 聽力的題型不算多,只要你先了解這 6 種題型, 再練習如何辨認與回答,就能很快提升你的聽力實力。 下面我們會逐一介紹所有題型,並提供範例題讓你熟悉考法。

細節題 (Detail Questions)

細節題會問你聽到的某個「具體資訊」。 作答時記得思考:這個細節的意思是什麼?為什麼教授或講者要提它? 有時這個細節可能很重要,有時可能只是稍微提到一下, 所以這題型難度算中高。 以下是範例:

Question: What is the man's problem?

  1. He forgot to attend the team lunch
  2. He didn't bring the assigned item
  3. He lost the lunch list
  4. He arrived late to the lunch
  • spellcheck Answer
    Answer: B

    (B) He didn't bring the assigned item is correct because the man admits, Yeah, but I completely forgot until just now, after the woman reminds him he was supposed to bring the drinks. His problem is clearly that he failed to bring the drinks he was assigned to supply.

    (A) He forgot to attend the team lunch is incorrect because the man is actively preparing for the lunch; he is asking what he can bring, which shows he has not forgotten to attend.

    (C) He lost the lunch list is incorrect because neither speaker mentions any list; the conversation focuses only on the drinks.

    (D) He arrived late to the lunch is incorrect because there is no discussion of arrival time; the issue centers on forgetting the drinks, not lateness.

    Transcript

    Man: Do you have anything I can bring for the team lunch?

    Woman: Why? Weren't you supposed to bring the drinks?

    Man: Yeah, but I completely forgot until just now.

    Woman: You're lucky—I grabbed extra juice boxes for my kids this morning.

    Man: Seriously? That would save me.

    Woman: No problem. Just bring the drinks next time!

主旨內容題 (Gist-content Questions)

「gist」意思是大意、主旨。 主旨內容題會問你聽力的主要內容,例如:「mainly about」「mainly discussing」。 作答時記得抓重點,不要卡在細節。 以下是範例:

Question: What is the main focus of the talk?

  1. The economic trade of bronze in the Mediterranean
  2. The steps involved in the lost-wax casting technique
  3. The religious symbolism of bronze statues
  4. Differences between Greek and Benin art
  • spellcheck Answer
    Answer: B

    (B) The steps involved in the lost-wax casting technique is correct because the professor systematically explains each phase: “it all starts with a model that’s made entirely out of beeswax… they would cover it with clay… they’d heat the whole thing up… the wax melts and drains out… they’d pour molten bronze into that empty space… break the clay mold open.” These sequential details show the lecture’s primary purpose is to walk students through the process itself.

    (A) The economic trade of bronze in the Mediterranean is incorrect because the talk never mentions prices, markets, or trading networks; it confines itself to artistic production, not commerce.

    (C) The religious symbolism of bronze statues is incorrect as the professor does not refer to any gods, rituals, or symbolic meanings—only the mechanical technique.

    (D) Differences between Greek and Benin art is incorrect because no stylistic comparison between cultures is provided; the focus remains on a single shared casting method.

    Transcript

    Listen to a talk in an art history class.

    Today I’d like to talk about something really interesting—it's called the lost-wax casting technique. So, this was an ancient method used to make detailed bronze sculptures, and it’s actually pretty clever. It all starts with a model that’s made entirely out of beeswax. Artists would shape this wax very carefully to look exactly like the sculpture they wanted to make.

    Once the wax model was ready, they would cover it with clay to create a hard outer shell. Then, after the clay dried, they’d heat the whole thing up. And what happens? Well, the wax melts and drains out, leaving a hollow space inside. That’s why it’s called “lost-wax”—because the wax is literally lost in the process.

    Now, here’s the cool part. They’d pour molten bronze into that empty space. Once it cooled and hardened, they’d break the clay mold open, and out came a bronze sculpture—almost an exact copy of the original wax version.

    You see, this method let artists capture really fine details, like tiny folds in fabric or strands of hair. Later on, workshops started using reusable molds, which helped speed things up and spread artistic styles across different regions, especially around the Mediterranean.

主旨目的題 (Gist-purpose Questions)

主旨目的題和主旨內容題很像,題目會問這段內容的主要目的。 一樣要抓大方向,而不是細節。 以下是範例:

Question: What is the main purpose of the announcement?

  1. To introduce additional laboratory materials
  2. To postpone the upcoming class period
  3. To review the previous week's laboratory results
  4. To inform lab groups about a required meeting
  • spellcheck Answer
    Answer: D

    (D) Inform lab groups about a required meeting is correct because the speaker clearly says, “all lab groups must attend a mandatory safety workshop this Friday at 3 p.m. in Room B204,” which is a direct statement that the purpose of the announcement is to tell students about an obligatory session they must attend.

    (A) To introduce additional laboratory materials is incorrect because the announcement never mentions new equipment or supplies; it only focuses on the upcoming safety workshop.

    (B) To postpone the upcoming class period is incorrect because there is no indication that any class is being delayed or rescheduled; the announcement simply adds a workshop after regular class time.

    (C) To review the previous week’s laboratory results is incorrect because the speaker does not discuss last week’s findings; instead, the announcement references last week’s spill only to justify the need for the safety workshop.

    Transcript

    Listen to an announcement in a chemistry class.

    Good morning, chemistry students. Due to last week’s spill, all lab groups must attend a mandatory safety workshop this Friday at 3 p.m. in Room B204. Bring your goggles and lab notebooks for inspection. Anyone who misses the session will not be allowed to begin the acid–base experiments scheduled for next week.

目的題 (Rhetorical-purpose Questions)

「目的題 」會要求你理解講者「為什麼」要講這些內容。 你會看到的題目形式通常像這樣:Why does the speaker mention XXX?

Question: Why does the speaker mention retirement savings plans?

  1. To criticize low employer contributions.
  2. To demonstrate an example of the default effect.
  3. To compare them with organ donation programs.
  4. To explain the mechanics of financial markets.
  • spellcheck Answer
    Answer: B

    (B) To demonstrate an example of the default effect is correct because the speaker notes, “Researchers first noticed this in retirement savings plans; participation rates jumped … when workers were automatically enrolled.” This sentence clearly uses retirement plans as evidence of how defaults influence behavior.

    (A) To criticize low employer contributions is incorrect because the talk never mentions contribution levels; the emphasis is entirely on participation rates.

    (C) To compare them with organ donation programs is incorrect because the retirement plan story is introduced before organ donation and serves primarily to illustrate the concept, not to create a formal comparison.

    (D) To explain the mechanics of financial markets is incorrect because there is no discussion of market operations or investment instruments; the focus is psychological, not financial.

    Transcript

    Listen to a talk in an economics class.

    Good morning, everyone. Today I’d like to introduce a key concept in behavioral economics called the “default effect.” The idea is simple: when a choice is pre-selected for us, most people stick with it even though they are free to opt out. Researchers first noticed this in retirement savings plans; participation rates jumped from about 40 percent to over 90 percent when workers were automatically enrolled.

    An even more striking illustration comes from studies of organ-donation forms. Countries that set “yes, I want to donate” as the default achieve donation consent rates above 80 percent, while nations requiring citizens to check a box reach barely 20 percent. The only difference is the starting option. Understanding this bias helps governments and firms design policies—sometimes called “nudges”—that guide behavior without removing freedom of choice.

推論題 (Inference Questions)

推論題的答案不會直接在聽力裡出現,你要根據線索自己推出正確結論。 題干通常會出現:「What does the professor imply…?」或「What can be inferred…?」 這是非常典型的推論題提示字。 作答時記得:不是要你猜,而是根據已知資訊找出最合理的結論。 以下是範例:

Question: What does the speaker imply about the waste produced by clownfish?

  1. It poisons predators near the anemone
  2. It signals mating readiness to other clownfish
  3. It feeds the anemone with needed nutrients
  4. It damages surrounding coral
  • spellcheck Answer
    Answer: C

    (C) It feeds the anemone with needed nutrients is correct because the lecturer states that clownfish wastes “provide the anemone with nitrogen that fuels faster growth,” directly indicating the excretion acts as a nutrient source.

    (A) It poisons predators near the anemone is incorrect because the speaker never claims the waste is toxic; instead, the benefit is nutritional.

    (B) It signals mating readiness to other clownfish is incorrect because no mention is made of pheromones or reproductive signaling associated with the waste.

    (D) It damages surrounding coral is incorrect because the only effect described is positive for the anemone; there is no reference to harm befalling coral.

聆聽句子答題 (Choose a Response Questions)

在「聆聽句子答題」題型中,你會先聽到一句問題或陳述作為對話開頭。這句話只會以語音播放,螢幕上不會顯示文字。接著,你會看到四個可能的回應選項,你的任務就是從中選出最適合、最自然的回答。 以下是範例:

  1. I need to buy some fruit.
  2. They have a student discount.
  3. Yes, but only on weekdays.
  4. Groceries can be expensive.
  • spellcheck Answer
    Answer: C

    Audio Question: So the grocery store near campus closes at 10?

    (C) Yes, but only on weekdays. –​ This directly confirms the store closes at 10 and adds the important condition that it's only on weekdays, fully answering the question.

    (A) I need to buy some fruit. Stating a personal need doesn't confirm the store's closing time, so it's irrelevant.

    (B) They have a student discount. Mentioning discounts provides no information about closing hours, so it doesn't answer the question.

    (D) Groceries can be expensive. Commenting on prices does not address the store's closing time, making it off-topic.

如何準備托福聽力測驗

很多老師會建議你:「多看英文電視、多聽英文廣播、多看英文電影」。 雖然這些方法對英文有幫助,但對提升「TOEFL 聽力成績」來說,效率並不高。 TOEFL 聽力測驗的內容是學術性的,包括校園對話和課堂講授。 這意味著:就算你看了很多電影、聽了很多英文歌,對 TOEFL 聽力的提升其實有限。

最有效率的準備方式,就是直接練習「和 TOEFL 聽力最接近的素材」。 也就是你在正式考試中會遇到的那些題型與內容。

第一步,你需要完整做一份 TOEFL 聽力練習並對答案,而且必須遵守正式考試的時間限制。 如果時間到了還沒寫完,請先停手,不要把剩下的題目硬做完。 這樣才會知道你真正的能力在哪裡,也能避免「假進步」。

接下來的兩組流程,會根據你這次練習的成績「高於 60%」或「低於 60%」來區分。 (60% 是平均基準;如果你的目標分數更高,例如要求 80% 以上,那麼你的及格線也會更高。)

分數少於60%

Step 1: 再聽一次錄音。 這次聽的時候,把你「聽不懂的地方」圈起來,並在逐字稿上做記號(你可以把稿子印出來)。 通常聽不懂的原因來自於「單字不熟」。 查清楚這些單字的意思,並練習它們的發音。大聲念出來會更有幫助。

Step 2: 當你弄懂單字後,把你之前聽不懂的段落「跟著逐字稿唸一次」。 這個動作叫做 echoing(回聲練習),屬於「主動式聽力訓練」。 研究顯示,它比只是「被動聽」還更有效提升聽力能力。

Step 3: 再做一次同一套 TOEFL 聽力題,看看分數是否有提升。 如果沒有,就重複 Step 1 和 Step 2, 一直練到你能完整理解這段對話或講課為止。

分數多於60%

Step 1: 回頭聽你當下「有猶豫」的地方。 例如某題你在兩個答案之間搖擺最後用猜的。 這些猶豫點都是你需要補強的地方。

Step 2: 分析你做錯的題目。 如果你發現自己常常錯同一種類型的題目,那一定有原因。 試著問自己:「為什麼這個資訊沒有出現在我的筆記裡?」 是因為沒有聽到?還是你不知道它很重要?

Proven study method to improve your TOEFL listening score

完整走完上述步驟,一份 TOEFL 聽力練習大約會花 45~60 分鐘。 當然,如果你大部分題目都答對,時間會更短。

如果你一天能投入 3 小時練習,你能在不到三週內完成超過 50 題 TOEFL 聽力練習。 這種密集訓練會讓你的 TOEFL 聽力成績快速提升。

最後一個建議: 把每天的 3 小時分散在一天中,例如: 一段時間練聽力、一段時間做閱讀、一段時間練口說。 這樣每天都有穩定接觸英文,你的大腦會保持在英文模式, 到考試時會更容易進入狀態。

托福聽力技巧

以下七個聽力技巧能幫助你在正式考試時更有把握:

  • 1. 一邊聽一邊記筆記。 聽力題目只會考「主要內容」,不會考非常細的小資訊。 例如:年份、名字、地點這類細節不會成為考點。 你要專注記錄教授講的重點,而不是試著抄下所有字句。
  • 2. 注意說話者的語氣。 有些題目會問講者的態度或情緒。 要答對這類題目,語氣就是關鍵: 對方是興奮?失望?困惑?不以為然? 這些線索都能幫助你選對答案。
  • 3. 抓住主旨(Main Idea)。 幾乎每一段講課的第一題都會是主旨題(gist question)。 教授通常會在一開始先提到主要話題,但有時會延伸到更具體的子主題。 所以要一開頭就準備聽主旨,並留意講課中主題是否有轉變。
  • 4. 注意教授是如何「連接」不同的想法。 聽講課時,你要記住內容之間的關係,也要在筆記中標出邏輯連接方式。 例如: - 因果(cause/effect) - 比較(compare/contrast) - 步驟(steps in a process) 這些提示能讓你在組織類題目中更容易作答。
  • 5. 聽不懂不要放棄。 如果遇到不太確定的題目,先排除明顯的錯誤答案, 接著選一個最符合整段內容主旨的選項。 猜也要「有策略地猜」。
  • 6. 聽力不能跳題。 聽力題目必須「按照順序」作答, 一旦跳過就不能回頭。 所以卡住時不要硬想,否則會害你錯過後面簡單的題目。
  • 7. 一題不要花超過 2 分鐘。 若你在一題卡太久,時間會不夠。 千萬不要為了一題錯失後面好幾題能輕鬆拿分的機會。 如果不確定,就先猜,再往下做。
