Need at least two reasons. Try this simple pattern for TOEFL Q1-Q2 at the beginning:
first 1-2 sentences: introduction. my opinion: A or B. agree or disagree. about 5-10 seconds
First, reason 1 (1 sentence) + example 1 // about 15-20 seconds
Second, reason 2 (1 sentence) + example 2. // about 15-20 seconds
Conclusion: Don't need a conclusion. (you can have one only when you don't have something to talk about)

Try this pattern for Q1-Q2 later:
first 1-2 sentences: introduction. my opinion: A or B. agree or disagree. about 5-10 seconds

Second, reason 2 (1 sentence) + why reason 2 (some arguments. 1-2 sentence) + a small conclusion for reason 2(like advantages of reason 2 or comparisons if not reason 2, 1-2 sentence). // about 15-20 seconds
