托??谡Z如何提升發(fā)音和流暢度?做好跟練習(xí)讀是關(guān)鍵
一.為何托福口語比聽力還差
如果說聽力是中國學(xué)生的軟肋的話,那么我們完全可以說口語是中國考生的黑洞。從ETS公布的數(shù)據(jù)來看,中國考生的口語的分?jǐn)?shù)一直都是在19分上下徘徊,是4科之中最低的。其實(shí)里面的核心問題還是“練得少”。雖然,之前我們很少考到聽力,但是實(shí)際上,很多城市現(xiàn)在的在升學(xué)考試中都或多或少的引入了聽力,而且大學(xué)四六級(jí)考試之中也是有聽力的。
另一個(gè)原因是很多考友,都是過于相信自己的口語能力。是的,這是因?yàn)闊o知而盲目自大的另外一個(gè)證據(jù)。因此,很多考友在考試之前只是更多地在準(zhǔn)備文字資料,亦或者是在簡單的想一些觀點(diǎn)和例子。很顯然,這里一個(gè)最為明顯的問題就是,口語考的是說的能力,而不是寫的能力,寫得再好,無法表達(dá)出來不也是沒有意義的么。
因此,在考試之前不多的幾天里,最應(yīng)該做的就是多“練”。“練”這里說的太抽象,其實(shí)應(yīng)該是多“說”。也就是開口說。當(dāng)然,這里馬上又面臨的就是怎么“說”。
二.托??谡Z評(píng)分看重哪些方面
托??谡Z評(píng)分主要看4點(diǎn),,地道的口音。第二,標(biāo)準(zhǔn)的發(fā)音。第三,流暢的表達(dá)。第四,結(jié)構(gòu)清晰,例子很好的支持自己的觀點(diǎn),同時(shí)沒有語法錯(cuò)誤。顯然,這里的條和第四條都別想了,口音不是幾天就可以練出來的,美國派入德國潛伏的特務(wù),都要至少2個(gè)月才能練出德國口音,而且這還是練不出來,就一定會(huì)給玉皇大帝湊牌局的前提下完成的,因此幾天就想改自己的口音根本別想。而且,顯然語法錯(cuò)誤也不是一天兩天就可以修正的,因此就別想了。
三.如何提升口語表達(dá)流暢度
發(fā)音怎么改?很簡單,就是跟讀。跟讀,也就是跟著原始的錄音,人家說一句,自己跟著讀一句,而且有時(shí)候要讀很多句,力求的就是要無限接近錄音本身的發(fā)音,通過這種方法來校正自己的發(fā)音。其實(shí)這個(gè)方法就好像是,小孩總喜歡去模仿一些結(jié)巴,但是經(jīng)常出現(xiàn)的情況就是模仿了幾次結(jié)巴之后,就會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)自己真的開始結(jié)巴了。這其實(shí)就是跟讀的作用的典型體現(xiàn)。
當(dāng)然,這里馬上面臨另外一個(gè)問題,就是是否要跟著原文來讀,其實(shí)這是一個(gè)見仁見智的了,如果你聽力水平很好,那么不用原文你也知道在說什么,這個(gè)時(shí)候最好不用原文。但是,如果你的聽力水平不夠好,那就一定要看原文的,否則,當(dāng)都不知道在說什么的時(shí)候,鸚鵡學(xué)生又有什么意義呢?這就是跟讀。
流暢怎么練?很簡單,就是模考。但發(fā)音好了還不夠,如果你說話的時(shí)候有大量的停頓,分?jǐn)?shù)也不會(huì)盡如人意。之所以會(huì)在說話的時(shí)候出現(xiàn)停頓,就是因?yàn)槠綍r(shí)很少說英語,因此一旦開始說英語,就需要瘋狂的用大腦思考自己接下來該說什么,當(dāng)一旦開始思考的時(shí)候,嘴自然也就停下來了,這也就是為什么我們一聽自己的口語錄音就發(fā)現(xiàn),自己在??嫉臅r(shí)候有大量的停頓,因此,我們做模考的目的就是要加強(qiáng)自己在托??谡Z考試中組織語言的能力,讓自己盡量可以在說前一句話的時(shí)候,就已經(jīng)準(zhǔn)備好了下面說什么,這樣,自己的回答自然就流暢了。
托??谡Z練習(xí)提升發(fā)音和流暢度是關(guān)鍵,而發(fā)音和流暢度的提升離不開跟讀練習(xí)。所以,小站君建議大家在平時(shí)多做跟讀練習(xí),多磨嘴皮子對(duì)口語提升是有百益而無一害的。
托福口語備考之中英文“神同步”的表達(dá)
1. Blood is thicker than water.
是不是好直白的“血濃于水”!英文中文真就是一樣的喲~
2. Be able to do something in your sleep.
中文里可以對(duì)應(yīng)“我閉著眼睛也能…”。
例如: I haven't done many portraits, but I could paint landscapes in my sleep.
我畫的肖像畫不多,但是我閉著眼也能畫風(fēng)景。
3. Have money to burn
土豪說“燒錢”,英文里也用了burn哦?!板X多到拿錢燒”,這么土豪,簡單易記。那“花錢如流水”用英文怎么說呢?對(duì)了,就是spend money like water.
4. keep somebody at arm's length
中文里咱們有“保持一臂距離”對(duì)吧,這么記就特別好記。
例如: He keeps all his clients at arm's length.
他和所有的客戶都保持距離。
5. (in) black and white
a)In a way that makes people or things seem completely bad or good, or completely right or wrong.
我們?cè)谠u(píng)論是非對(duì)錯(cuò)的時(shí)候,可能會(huì)聽到有人說“不分黑白”。英文里也用黑和白來指絕對(duì)的好和壞,對(duì)和錯(cuò)。
例如: It's a complex issue, but he only sees it in black and white.
這是個(gè)很復(fù)雜的問題,但是他只是非黑即白地來看它。
b)In writing or in print
中文里,尤其是在電視劇里,每次遇到“簽字畫押”情節(jié),總能聽到“白紙黑字”是不?英文里也有對(duì)應(yīng)的含義。
例如: I never thought they'd put it in black and white on the front page.
我沒想到他們會(huì)把這白紙黑字地印在頭版上。
6. Shut / close your eyes to something
中文里咱們說“對(duì)……視而不見”,差不多就是這個(gè)意思。
例如: You can't just close your eyes to his violence.
你不能對(duì)他的暴力行為視而不見。
They seem intent on shutting their eyes to the problems of pollution.
他們似乎打算對(duì)污染問題視而不見。
7. Two heads are better than one.
原來是“三個(gè)臭皮匠賽過諸葛亮”。其實(shí)還可以理解為“人多力量大”。
8. Be engraved on/ in your heart, memory, mind, etc.
深深地印在心里或者記憶力。
例如: The date of the accident remains engraved on my mind.
事情發(fā)生的那個(gè)日子已銘記在我心上。

在準(zhǔn)備此類題目的時(shí)候重點(diǎn)不外乎以下方面:優(yōu)質(zhì)教育的要素、教育的功能、和教育的受眾等。
一個(gè)國家教育如何提高:
課程設(shè)置要突出實(shí)用性,這樣可以增加學(xué)生畢業(yè)后的就業(yè)機(jī)會(huì)。
重點(diǎn)詞匯、短語:practical,get .x ready for
I would say that the courses offered in universities should be more practical, specifically, they should get students ready for future jobs and increase students' future job opportunities.
決策者應(yīng)該想辦法降低高等教育的成本,現(xiàn)在高等教育太貴了比如生活費(fèi)、書費(fèi)和學(xué)費(fèi)太高。
重點(diǎn)詞匯、詞組:make it accessible to ,cost of living, textbooks and skyrocketing tuitions

重點(diǎn)詞匯、詞組:not be motivated to 沒有動(dòng)力做某事, be into 非常喜歡,be given to chance to do s/th, be based on 基于
段子:
Personally, I think government should make it easier for student to choose their majors. Currently, it is very hard, if not impossible for lots of average students to choose popular majors like economics, finance and accounting, cuz you have to get a really high score in college entrance exam. As known to all, one might not be motivated to do something unless he or she is really into that, students should be given to chance to choose majors they are interested in and it shouldn't be based on exam scores, thus they will better employ their creativity and imagination and be more likely to be successful in college.
教育的功能、目標(biāo)the purpose of education:
傳授知識(shí)、培養(yǎng)實(shí)用性技術(shù)impart knowledge and cultivate practical skills, provides students with the tools and skills
句子:
· The utmost purpose of education is to impart knowledge and cultivate practical skills so that the students can be successful in their future career, like to become physicians, pilots, professors, architects, even engineers.
· Tertiary education(高等教育) provides students with the tools and skills that are essential for them to be successful in their future career.
培養(yǎng)道德情操、求實(shí)精神:develop morality and values to live a good life and build up character to seek the truth
句子:
大學(xué)教育的另外一個(gè)功能是培養(yǎng)學(xué)生的道德情操、正確的價(jià)值觀、樹立人格、求真等良好品質(zhì),這些品質(zhì)對(duì)一個(gè)人的未來的職業(yè)是至關(guān)重要的。
Another important function of university is to develop morality and cultivate values to live a decent life and help the students to build up character, and to seek the truth, and I think these qualities are very important to have in order to be a mature person.
幫助學(xué)生吸收知識(shí)、協(xié)助成長: the exploration of knowledge, to help students grow, to make men complete, explore our utmost ability, constant simulation, makes us understand things better
句子:
重點(diǎn)詞匯、詞組:noble cause光榮的使命,lead .x on the path of, well-rounded全面的, constant simulation 不斷的刺激

人人都應(yīng)該給機(jī)會(huì)接受高等教育
句子:
重點(diǎn)詞組:people from all walks of life, prestigious, be accessible/available to anyone, fairness, social status, underprivileged 弱勢(shì)群體,climb up social ladder
大學(xué)教育應(yīng)該人人平等,孔子說有教無類;如果只有富人有接受高等教育的機(jī)會(huì),那么社會(huì)的不公平現(xiàn)象將會(huì)變得更加嚴(yán)重,弱勢(shì)群體通往社會(huì)上層的通道就會(huì)被阻礙。
I would say that higher education should be available to people from all walks of life, as prestigious Chinese philosopher Confucius said: education should be received by anyone no matter what their social status are. Suppose higher education is available only to the rich, then only the rich will be likely to succeed and then the underprivileged will never get a chance to climb up the social ladder, that is not fair.
此文給大家?guī)黻P(guān)于教育的語料庫, 教育的話題在獨(dú)立題目中屢見不鮮如:如何提高國家的教育、只有在高中學(xué)習(xí)好的學(xué)生才能讀大學(xué)、大學(xué)教育比以前重要了、大學(xué)教育應(yīng)該是精英教育還是大眾化教育、不上大學(xué)就不會(huì)成功、大學(xué)對(duì)一個(gè)人的一生很重要等等話題。
