生活休闲类话题是托福口语中的高频话题。今天来给大家介绍一个非常好用的短语给大家借鉴。
来看下面的托福口语例子：
…an entirely new phase of existence——a butterfly idleness; Nothing to do, nobody to be responsible to, and untroubled with financial uneasiness...San Francisco was Paradise to me. I lived at the best hotel, exhibited my clothes in the most conspicuous places, infested the opera...I spend money with a free hand, and meantime watched the stock sales with an interested eye.
首句中Butterfly idleness就是说他自己“清闲得如同蝴蝶一样”。类似这样的修辞手法很多，这是我们自己创造不出来的，但是却可以通过参考别人的托福口语表达方式来丰富自己的词汇资源。
如果托福口语考题问你闲的时候都怎么度过，你就可以用到这个单词了。你可以说：
...actually seldom do I have free time because I spend much time in working and learning. Learning is a life-long process. I learn music, language, and movie. Nevertheless, occasionally, I enjoy the butterfly idleness. It is an entirely new phase of existence. However, I am not the one who was born with a silver spoon in his mouth so I dare not to spend the money with a free hand...
这样就可以看出Butterfly idleness这个短语在托福考试口语表达中是非常好用而且表达生动形象的。相信考官看到你说出这个词汇，不会吝啬于给你加分的。
