新TOEFL考試總體簡介：
Q：新托福VS老托福最主要的區別是什麼？
A：老T是筆試 PBT（Paper-based Test）
機考是 CBT （Computer-based Test）
新T是屬於網考 （Internet-Based Test）是將在具有因特網接入條件的計算機上進行。考試中每一部分開始
前，會有英文文字提示，告知考生如何回答問題。
Q：新托福包括哪幾部分？
A：新T包括：聽力、口語、閱讀、寫作四部分。
改變了原有的純語法題，但是增加了我們中國學生普遍吃力的口語。
Q：新托福如何記分？
A：新T總共四部分。每部分30分。滿分120分。
Q：新托福的成績單有何變化嗎？
A：有的。原來我們的成績單就是每部分的分數＋作文分。
現在，除了給出考生四個部分的成績之外，每項考核還附有文字說明。
這些說明是對考生各種能力的優缺點加以概括性的評估。
Q：新托福考試時間長度是怎樣的？
A：新托福從原來140分鐘的考試時間延長到4個小時。在一天內完成。
可見新T不僅是腦力活，也是體力活，對學生的身體素質提出較高要求。
Q：新托福題目的選題內容有何變化嗎？
A：內容的變化基本不會太大。以北美學生學習生活為主要內容。
內容主要涵蓋：教育、人文、商業、工程技術、自然科學和社會研究六大類。
Q：新TOEFL考試還是在原來的考區考點嗎？我考舊T的時候沒看到電腦啊？
A：這的確是個問題。目前，ETS正在盡力完善適應新T的考區電腦服務系統。
之所以延長了新T在中國的實施時間，就是考慮到這個問題。
請考生注意，有些考區可能會有不同程度的考點增加或減少。
但是，ETS承諾：為了方便考生申請，TOEFL考試的設置次數將有所增加。而不是原來的一年4－5次。
Q：新TOEFL考試增加了口語考試，那麼TSE還有必要參加嗎？TSE考試會被取消嗎？
A：如果考生新TOEFL考試成績達到申請美國大學的水平以後，可以不必再考TOEFL的口語TSE。
但是如果考生是為了職業或商業目的，還可以繼續選擇TSE考試。
06年，在我們國家TSE不會隨新TOEFL的出現而取消。
但是，在不久的將來，會被新T的口語取代。
但是，原來考過的成績兩年內還是有效的。
以下是轉自ETS官方網站的消息。
QUOTE:
The original TOEFL iBT introduction schedule stated that the Test of Spoken English (TSE) would be discontinued as a stand-alone test as of July 2006. However, because TOEFL iBT will now be introduced only in locations where there is sufficient testing capacity, ETS will administer the TSE test on August 19, October 14, and November 18, 2006, in locations outside the United States and Canada.
Q：新TOEFL實行後，北美學校對成績的要求會有怎樣的變化呢？
A：在2005年北美新托福考試成績發布後，
各院校紛紛制定了自身在新托福網考總體成績與分項最低分上的錄取要求。
從新TOEFL最大的改變——增加口語考試來看，各高校均十分重視考生的口語與寫作能力。
具有良好的自我表達能力的留學申請者，將從考試到申請過程中具有較大的優勢。
從公布的新托福分數要求來看，美國一些名校對新托福的要求看似並不高。
大部分院校只要求80分，相當於老托福考到550分。
但是中國考生的分數一向相對較高，如要獲得哈佛等名校的錄取，沒有考到新托福100分以上是比較困難的。
另外，希望考生格外注意口語寫作的分數。
Q：新TOEFL怎樣報名？
A：現在，我們國家還沒有完成設備上的一些完善，所以還沒被ETS列入LIST裡。
新T在8月考試，最晚6月可以進行報名。
到時候請考生登陸TOEFL——我要報名 來注冊。
現在這個LIST裡還沒有CHINA，等到一切就緒了就可以報名了。
請考生先耐心復習，等待報名。
Q：請問關於成績的寄送問題？
A：新T的成績和機考差不多，有網上閱卷系統。
所以，不用再等那麼久了。考試結束後可以網上查分。
官方成績將在15個工作日寄送。
也是一個給考生，還有免費送分到學校的名額。 Longman Preparation Course for the TOEFL Test: Next Generation iBT
