口语考试要有以下几个要素才能得高分:自信,反应,语音和表情。这就是“现场表现系数”。今天小编就给大家介绍下雅思口语四大表现系数。
雅思口语四大表现系数
1 自信。你有面对考官的自信吗?比如,你是否会很轻松地反问考官:"What can I call you?"从而给考官的笫一印象就是:这个人肯定口语不错,因为其它考生都不敢和我这样!口语考试不同于一般的和鬼子聊天,而是你和一个考官在一间“阴森可怖”的小黑屋里面,你看着他,他看着你。你无权保持沉默,并且你所说的每一句话都将成为承堂证供,因为你面前还摆着一个录音机。你曾有的自信就在你还没有进入口语考场之前的焦急等待中彻底土崩瓦解了。那你就完了,因为你下面的口语考试就会出现技术变形。 自信从何而来?准备。如果你对即将考到的题目烂熟于胸,你会不自信吗?如果你已经拥有了大量和鬼子练口语的经历,发现他们无非就是一群来中国“潇洒走一回”的流浪汉,你会不自信吗?所以,试问那些一考口语就紧张的同学,你们有谁在考试之前做到了以上这两点呢?
2 反应。如果你希望对口语考试中的所有问题都有所准备,这是mission impossible。所以要对没有准备过的问题做出敏锐地反应。有个考生第二次考8分的时候被问到一个问题:“Are physical exercises popular in China?”我立刻不假思索的回答:“Of course they are very popular”,因为如果我在被问到问题之后如果不立刻作出答案,我的fluency就会被扣分;但是如果只说这一句话,同样会被扣分。所以我立刻说:“because there is a National Physical Exercises Program in China. You can see there are a lot of physical exercise equipment in the communities, such as…”这时候,可以用举例子进一步丰富我的答案,这是一招灵丹妙药,同时我又可以停顿两秒钟,从而组织语言。但是,我忽然发现我有了??!这时我的反应帮助了我。我立刻说:“I can't explain it very clearly, but…”就这一句话,我就给自己解围了,而且一个but,又可以停顿两秒钟,然后再说:“you can see there are many children and old people doing exercises in the morning and in the evening”。万事大吉了!
3 语音,包括发音和语气。发音问题,大家不用过于强调发英音还是美音,因为中国人大多数的发音都是“杂音”(英音和美音的杂交产物)。例如:两者最大的差别在于/r/这个音,英音没有这个音。那些对美音趋之若鹜的同学都在拼命的学习发这个音,结果把idea, campus, famous这些没有/r/音的单词都发出这个音来了,却在念four的时候没有/r/音。所以,我们只要做到清晰即可。由于专门模仿过托福的美音,所以自认为发音过关。但是在口语考试那种精神高度紧张的状态下,什么美音英音的早就抛到脑后了,只要能说清楚即可,哪怕是本能的“杂音”。但是不可否认,我的发音还是帮了大忙,所以如果大家希望的7分以上,清晰的发音是必不可少的。 但是更重要的是语气,其实就是最基本的抑扬顿挫而已。但是适度的起伏、停顿、强调和重读对于考官是有天壤之别的。有太多的考生在平时说英语的时候,永远是一个调的,给人的感觉是boring。换个位置思考,如果你是考官,一个周末要面对几十个考生,但是每个人都用一个腔调和你说话,你是不是想自杀?所以大家平时在准备的时候,就要刻意训练。首先,你想一想在说汉语时,在什么地方会有抑扬顿挫?其次,你可以用mp3把你的声音录下来,自己听听,再让周围人听听,感觉一下是否觉得舒服。
4 表情。前面说过,你是在和考官“交流”,而不是在“独白”。那么你就要有丰富的面部表情。最好就是微笑。我在考试中始终保持微笑,并且还有自然的大笑。如何影响考官?就是用你的微笑带动他或她笑。这位考生第一次考8分的时候,在Part 3被问到:“Have you learned any other languages?”说:“Yes, I have learned some Russian words.”于是顺口说了一句我背得烂熟的俄语长句。那位女考官听到之后,立刻笑了起来。一看她笑了,宜将剩勇追穷寇,不可沽名学霸王!要让她“回眸一笑百媚生,六宫粉黛无颜色”。于是立刻满脸笑容地补充道:“It means I want to invite you to lunch.”那位姑娘立刻笑得前仰后合的。可巧那是个周日的上午10点多,也许她还以为我对她有什么企图呢!但是冰冻三尺非一日之寒,若不是他从Part 1就开始用笑容打动她的“芳心”,又怎能换来这样一次“暴笑”呢?
让考官无语的雅思口语万能答题套路
你做家务吗?我要学习,没时间。
你了解你的邻居吗?我早出晚归,看不到他们。
你喜欢什么电视节目?我太忙,没时间看电视。
生日对你重要吗?不重要,因为没时间庆祝。
你读报纸吗?我要写作业,没时间读。
你喜欢写信还是Email?我喜欢Email,因为写信费钱。
你喜欢坐公交吗?不喜欢,还得花钱,不如走路。
亲爱的同学们,雅思题不能这么回答。考官不会认为你在give reasons,ta会认为你在find excuses。这两个还是有区别的。
1. 因为学习而没时间做家务?
你告诉我学习和家务有什么冲突的地方?你既然有时间吃饭,就应该有时间洗碗。什么?洗碗会耽误学习的时间?洗个碗也就最多10分钟的时间,你告诉我能耽误什么呢?你拉个屎弄不好比这时间还要长呢!你总不会把作业带到厕所去做吧?
参考答案:I don’t like doing housework; it’s boring and tedious. I think I’d rather do homework than housework.
2. 因为早出晚归而看不到邻居?
你告诉我你每天得多早出门?早上4点?天蒙蒙亮,只有环卫工人在街上?
你告诉我你多晚到家?晚上12点?楼道里或电梯里就只有你一个人?
那你还有周末和寒暑假啊!哦,对了。你周末要补课。寒暑假到我这来学雅思啊!
在这里我真的需要使用一个捂脸的emoji了。
严肃地说,你是不可能看不到你的邻居的。而且邻居不是隔壁哦!
你可以见到你的邻居,你甚至可以和他们交谈。但这并不代表你会了解他们的。
参考答案:I don’t know my neighbors very well. I seldom meet them because I spend most of my time at school. And on weekends, I tend to stay home doing my own stuff. And even if I meet them, say, in the elevator, we just say hello, but we never really talk.
3. 太忙而没时间看电视?
咱凭良心说,你是不是把时间都花在什么撸啊撸、王者荣耀上了啊?你玩手机可以,但咱别说自己太忙好吗?忙着玩手机呗?!
当然,还有同学说:“我忙着学习,我父母不让我看电视啊!”那重点也在你父母不允许上,而不是在没时间上好吗。
参考答案:Well, I used to watch a lot of cartoons when I was a kid. But now, most of my time is spent either on my iPhone or doing homework. I don’t really watch TV now.
4. 没时间庆祝生日?
和朋友或家人简单的吃顿饭也可以算庆祝啊。还有,如果在学校真的脱不开身,你也可以买块大的蛋糕在学校里庆祝啊。
你是没时间庆祝,还是不想花时间庆祝呢?抑或你的压力太大,没有心思去庆生呢?Either way,别说没时间。
参考答案: Birthdays are not that important to me now, and I really don’t wanna find the time to celebrate. Last time, I did buy a birthday cake though, and I celebrated with my classmates at school.
5. 因为写作业而没时间读报纸?
Again,这俩不冲突啊!写作业是完成任务,读报纸是获取信息,没什么太大的矛盾点的。从获取信息或新闻这一角度来考虑的话,是不是还有其它的渠道呢?
参考答案:Frankly, I don’t read newspapers. Young people like me get news mostly from social media such as Wechat or Facebook.
6. 写信费钱?没钱坐公交?
你说写信到底能花几个钱?发Email就不要钱了吗?你家的宽带网和你的手机流量不是钱奥?
坐公交也不会花去太多的钱啊!现在咱生活水平都提高了,坐个公交车不会让你后半月吃土滴!
另外,你花了近2000块大洋考雅思;说不定,你还要花个几百万去国外读书,然后你考场上和考官哭穷?谁信啊!
你要说在大城市买个房子没有钱,这我信好吗!
参考答案:I prefer Emails because they’re more convenient. I mean you can send them on your phone or computer. Writing a letter, however, you need to buy an envelope and stamps. I don’t mind the money, but it does seem complicated.
When it comes to school, I don’t like to take public transport because my home is very close to where I study. Besides, walking is a good exercise and not taking public transport can help me save a few bucks for my parents, you know.
雅思口语part1里,大家考到的都是一些和生活相关的小话题,所以很难去碰到那些没钱或没时间做的事情。在这里还是恳请大家免开尊口吧。另外,给那位万能答案的口语老师一个忠告:你有想万能答案的精力,还不如花点钱和时间多研究研究雅思口语呢。
雅思口语考试经典错误总结
1. "Chinese people use trees as chopsticks." (拿树当筷子这筷子也太大了吧......应该是use trees for making chopsticks吧由此可见雅思口语中准确使用动词的重要性。)
2. "I think environmental protection is essential but not so important." (典型的逻辑混乱......essential就等于very important,环保是至关重要但是不是那么重要的......无语......)
3. "Without electricity, the world would become so dark that a person could not even see a hand in front of his face." (缺了至关重要的时间状语at night!这么说的话古代人都是一直生活在伸手不见五指的黑暗中的吗)
4. "Watching TV is convenient and people can avoid traffic jam" (这又是什么逻辑看电视和避免交通拥挤有什么关系)
5. "I like writing because it is good for your health."
(Why......)
6. "My grandmother is 98 years old so she is very pure." (为什么98岁就必然“纯洁”)
7. "As we all know, every advantage has its disadvantage." (......好深奥......)
8. "The rate of net-cheating has boomed by 1.27% in the past 2 years." (说这句话的人一定是雅思图表作文没学好。Boom=Increase rapidly,增长1.27%算rapid吗?应该用climb或edge up。)
9. "Modern ways of life brings people some healthy diseases." (疾病还有“健康的疾病”貌似说这句话的人想表达的是"健康方面的疾病吧"那就直接用desease就可以了,因为所有的疾病都是“健康方面”的,要么还有哪方面的)
10. "My father is a photograph......" (我爸爸是一张照片这个强劲的......应该是photographer。)
11. "The data is very astonished!" (“数据非常吃惊”典型的没有学好现在分词和过去分词的区别,应该用astonishing-“让人惊讶的”。)
12. "At that time, I was studied at university." (“我那时候在大学里被研究”你是小白鼠吗应该是I was studying at university。)
13. "Traveling can enlarge our eyesight." (旅行能够拓宽我们的视力应该是broaden our horizon吧。)
14. "Today, more and more people are getting old." (不是more and more people在变老,是everybody!只要你是地球人都在getting old的......)
15. -"Are you a student or are you working now"
-"Oh, in my opinion, I am a student." (为什么要加in my opinion难道别人都不承认你是学生)
16. "You need some skills, such as a partner, to play table tennis." (Partner是一种skill吗)
17. "China is a big country, so we have four seasons." (无数小国家就没有一年四季了吗)

Part 2
高分答案案例
Describe an environmental problem that has been in the news. You should say
when this was
where the event happened
what actually took place
and say how you felt about this problem.
Martin: Well … this is an interesting question … there are so many issues I could think of … natural disasters like earthquakes and floods seem to be in the news almost every year … but there was one story recently about some animals that were under threat … it wasn’t focused on one place in particular … it was looking at various animals that could actually become extinct in different African countries … if we don’t take steps to protect them … these were really iconic animals like gorillas … leopards … rhinos … and apparently they’re now listed as endangered species … what made it really depressing was they were in danger thanks to us … in some cases it was due to a loss of habitat either because people need more agricultural production … or even worse I think … because of hunting and poaching … I hate to think of future generations being robbed of the chance to see creatures like these in their natural environment … it’s lucky we have lots of organisations that focus on wildlife conservation … hopefully with their help we can put pressure on those in power to do something to stop creatures like these dying out …
