雅思口语考试,是一个斗智斗勇的过程,一边是阅尽前人的老司机,一个是机关算尽的大忽悠,这场暗流涌动的口语大战,考官是怎么想的呢?下面小编就和大家分享雅思口语攻略,来欣赏一下吧。
雅思口语考官:对不起,这3类考生不是我的菜
一问一答高冷Siri型考生
这一类烤鸭问一句答一句,毫无拓展。让小编想到了之前某个雅思考官吐槽:Don’t they realize the whole point of this test is to speak?
这一点,小编已经提到很多次了。问到Which city do you live in now? 不能只回答I live in X.X,还需要稍微拓展一下。这样考官才能够根据你的内容判断你的分数段,后面的提高题问题才能够做出调整。
范例1:I live in BJ. I am actually a local here. I was born and brought up here.
范例2:I live in BJ. I moved here with my parents in 2000, when my dad was relocated from my hometown. We've been living here ever since.
在这两个范例的回答中,除了回答了问题之外,还补充了你在这个城市生活了多久,你为什么会生活在这个城市。这样一来,考官就大概知道你的分数大概是什么水平了。
说空话,撒鸡汤型烤鸭
我们就直接举个栗子来说吧。
直接上题:Do you like travelling?
考生回答:Yes, I do, because travelling broadens my horizon and enriches my outlook.
一定有烤鸭心里暗想,这答案挺好的呀,我好不容易背了两个短语,都用上了。
我就想问了,平时聊天的时候,你会说:我旅游是为了开拓我的视野增长我的见识么?我们又不是汪峰,生活中怎么可能动不动就谈梦想这种不太切实的问题呢?喜好是个很personal的事,不要说这个东西能干嘛,而应该说这个东西能满足你哪方面的需求。比如:
Yes, I do. I am crazy about travelling. This is because I am a real foodie, travelling means I'll be able to try out all sorts of local cuisines and delicacies,like Hot and Sour Rice Noodles in Sichuan, smelly tofu in Hunan and seafood barbeque in Guangdong. Just thinking about them makes my mouth water.
小编之前也有说过哈,如果你实在不知道说啥,那聊食物准没错!这个东西又personal ,能聊的东西又多。毕竟每个城市几乎都有特色小吃,聊这个东西肯定能够让你的回答与众不同!
热爱背诵,诗人型烤鸭
很多烤鸭备考只知道背诵范例,而且还背得痕迹明显,一句长句说得坑坑洼洼,就连我们朗读诗歌都比他要快。那些考官怎么说也是见识了N多考生的老司机,难道会分辨不出来你的真实水平么?尤其是PART 2部分,简直就是“重灾区”。
其实呀,在part 2中,答题思路为:观点+拓展内容+例子。前三问直接回答,小编就不多说了。回答第四问的时候掌握这三个steps就能够搞定part 2的题目了~ 比如说Large company 这道题。最后一问是:Why you are interested in this company.
观点:1. I wonder what makes the company it is today.
2. I want to start my own business one day.
观点1 拓展:Say, the corporate culture? You see, the company aspires to be not only different but also unique. The design of the products is ingenious, and the services Apple provides are so personalized and user-friendly.(以公司文化为例)
观点1 例子: If I were to have a chance to get a glimpse inside the establishment, I would not miss the chance to interview the staff, to find out what sort of people they are, the hippies, or simply the geeks who are aiming for better products. But I am sure the talk would be anything but boring.
这样一个观点就解释清楚了。如果还有时间可以再以同样的结构给第二个观点。
过于紧张,舌头打结型烤鸭前不久就有个同学来哭诉了,考试的时候太紧张,完全没有表达清楚自己要说的点,而且几乎每说两三个单词就“额…”一下。而且被打断之后更加紧张,输出的内容很少。
这种情况要怎么办呢?建议大家啊,可以参考一下之前小编总结的一些克服紧张情绪的小TIPS, 另外呢,也希望大家要克服喜欢“额…”的这个毛病。当然,正常的思考或者是自我纠正的时候出现一些"额..."是没有问题的。但是如果老是发出这种声音,会让人觉得你太不自信,很容易让别人对你的真实水平有所质疑。以后每次想要“额…”的时候,不妨用一些fillers来填补。比如说:
To be honest / In my opinion,
As far as I’m concerned,
On top of that,
it occurs to me that….
等等,这个fillers大家可以平时在口语练习中自己总结哈。
好了,这是小编见的最多的几个类型的烤鸭,不知道大家有没有膝盖中箭呢?可是不背不会说呀?不说那些空大的“鸡汤”,我还能说些什么?我就是紧张,就不敢说,怎么破?
雅思口语话题思路拓展方法
.拓展思路方法之:多重角度
在口语考试中,有时考生常常因为思考角度比较单一,所以答案内容也会有些单薄,这时我们不妨多一个角度思考问题。下面我们来看一下真题演示:
1. “WH问题”
Part1 真题:Do you prefer to buy things in small shops or in big supermarkets and department stores?
思路演示:Well,I’m more into small shops if I would like to buy things that are special, you know, something like shoes,or accessories. But if I need to buy foods or electrical equipment, then it’s more likely that I would go to a department store, which is more reliable …
2. “Yes/No问题”
Part 3真题:Do you think healthy eating is important?
思路演示:Yes,eating healthy foods is necessary in many ways,especially that it can prevent some diseases like diabetes. But I think that it is fine to eat a little unhealthy foods in moderation,in fact,we have to say that most of the fast foods are tastier than healthy foods…
从以上的例子我们可以看到,从多一个角度考虑问题,答案往往就会丰富许多,并且听起来更加合理全面。但是笔者还是要提醒广大考生,参考这种回答方式时,一定要注意先给出明确直接的答案,否则会让考官感觉你并未给出正面观点,有跑题的嫌疑。
二.拓展思路方法之:多重细节
造成答案过短的主要原因之一就是“只回答”考官所提的问题。而是事实上,考官提问的目的并不“只想听”问题的答案。在基本答案的基础上,考生们需要主动给出更多额外信息,因为考官想听到更多“语言能力”的展示。
所以大部分的题目的核心拓展思路为:Direct answer + X
1. X= 5WH+ How Often
这个方法基本就是“自问自答”,把与核心内容相关的各方面信息主动提供给考官,然后连缀成完整的答案。下面我们来看一下part1和part2的一些真题演示。
Part 1真题:Have you travelled recently?
思路演示1 :Yes, I have. (Direct answer)Last month(when) I went to Hong Kong(where) with my parents(who). We had a great time at the Disney Land and went shopping,too.(what) 思路演示2: No,I haven’t(Direct answer). I’m been busy with my studies(why).But after the exam(when), my parents and I(who)are going to Hong Kong and we would like to go to Disney Land and go shopping, too. (what)
Part 2真题:Describe a library that you have used.
You should say:
where it was
what type of library it was
what you used the library for
what you liked and /or disliked about this library
and explain how useful it was for your studies or research.
思路演示:“where it was”: on campus(Direct answer)
(Where): It was next to our teaching building of English Department (When) : It was built 50 years ago when our school was established. (Who) : Most of the students liked to go there as well as the teachers (How often): I almost went there everyday especially around exam time.
我们可以看到,这个方法简单易行,是拓展思路最基本的方法,只要具备基本的语法功底就可以轻松做到。 但在part2中笔者建议考生们不要使用“过量”,因为part2有严格的时间限制,如果每一条point都补充很详细的信息很有可能会遗漏卡片上的重要信息,甚至会让考官觉得你“跑题”,所以适可而止就可以了。
2. X= examples
在基本答案之后,考生可主动引入例子。我们先来看一下常见真题的演示:
Part 1 真题: What's your favourite type of music? 思路演示: Well,I’m a big fan of Modern Popular Music(Direct answer), you know, like Hip-Pop, Rap, Rhythm and Blues , Rock ‘n roll, things like that… Part 3 真题:What kinds of films do people in China like to watch? 思路演示:Well, they watch a broad range of movies, in fact(Direct answer). For instance, men prefer Action & Adventure , Martial Arts and Romantic Comedy. But women are more into Romance and Romantic Comedy. And children are quite interested in Science Fiction and Animated Cartoons…
你会发现,如果你对所涉及话题比较熟悉,就应该主动找机会采取举例子的方法,把之前积累的词汇作为“examples”展示出来,这是展示“vocabulary”的能力,化被动为主动向考官拿分的好方法。 3. X= feelings and opinions
我们都知道在口语part1和part2中问题都是围绕考生的personal details来设置的,所以可随时加入自己的感受与观点,我们先来看一下常见的真题的演示:
Part 2真题:Describe a teacher who has greatly influenced you in your education.
You should say:
where you met them
what subject they taught
what was special about them
and explain why this person influenced you so much.
思路演示:“what subject they taught” He taught us maths in the second year of middle school. Well, I have to say that, before I had Mr. Chen as my teacher, maths had always been so boring and difficult to me that I always slept during class, it was my nightmare, you know. And I guess that is why I didn’t like him at the beginning…
通过以上的例子我们可以看到,在表达中随时加入感受与观点,不仅可以轻松充实卡片的内容,而且可以使内容更加生动和个性化,避免给考官留下呆板无趣的印象,对最终的分数有很积极的影响。
雅思口语宠物话题解析
雅思口语part1常见话题
Describe a pet you would like to own.
Describe a pet people often keep in their country.
题目分析
遇到关于宠物的话题,家里养宠物的同学们是不是觉得非常得心应手?有没有很多关于自己养宠物的经历想要与考官分享呢?欣怡老师家里从小到大养过十多条狗狗,还有热带鱼和各种鸟,现在还自己养了一只名为“小怪兽”的仓鼠,所以聊起这个话题感觉有说不完的话。当然,没养过宠物的同学们遇到这个话题也不要慌,想一想自己想养哪种宠物?如果觉得小猫小狗太寻常的话也不妨可以尝试一下讲一些让考官们眼前一亮的宠物喔。
思路点拨
好,回归正题,遇到这样的话题第一步我们需要理清思绪,想清楚自己的口语话题要从哪几方面展开会比较充实。其实这个话题与描述一种野生动物的套路是一样一样的,在描述自己养过或者想养的宠物时,考生也需要介绍宠物的外观、生活习性等细节,关键是能够介绍出自己如何饲养这一宠物以及饲养这一宠物给自己带来的好处,例如快乐地陪伴、培养爱心和耐心等待。
建议包括以下四点:
(1) What it is
(2) How long you have raised it
(3) How to take care of it
(4)Explain what benefits you can get from keeping a pet
Sample Answer
If I ever decide to buy a pet, I would buy a hamster. A hamster is a kind of mouse, and it’s smaller than a rat. It doesn't have long tail, and its mouth is not sharp. Hamsters have a lighter colour, something like gray. The reason I choose hamsters is that they’re so adorable and mischievous. Furthermore, hamsters like to run around a wheel and can go for 15-20 minutes without stopping. To me it is fascinating to watch them do that.
They are actually very easy to take care of. I would just need to put the hamster in a cage, have some pet toys in there, and that would be enough. Food for hamsters is very simple: they like to eat carrot, fruits, and nuts. Of course, we shouldn't forget water. It's very simple to keep the cage clean. Just make sure the cage is clean and water is replenished every day. I would say a hamster is a very clean animal and very entertaining just to watch. I'm sure all kids and adults would surely like a hamster.
贴心词典
adorable adj. 可爱的
mischievous adj. 淘气的
replenish vt. 补充;把…装满
