Correct time pattern for TOEFL speaking Q1/Q2:

Introduction. about 5 seconds.

First, reason one... about 20 seconds

Second, reason two... about 20 seconds

---------------------

1. For the introduction, don't need to paraphrase the speaking topic, simply make the choice. as short as possible.

2. For two reasons, don't spend too much time on one reason, while no time for another reason. half half if the best approach.

Thank you for the reply. but I am wondering how can you talk just one reason and one example in 45 seconds.

for example, suppose the topic is: do you like to eat at home or eat at restaurant?

I like to eat at home, and I will give one reason: because it will save money.

This only takes about 5 seconds.

then how can I spend one example in 40 seconds left? it is a hard job for me. Can you give us more details on how to give just one reason and one example in 45 seconds?
