托??谡Z備考3要3不要高分口訣介紹
托??谡Z備考三要口訣介紹
口語發(fā)音要重視
很多備戰(zhàn)托福的同學會覺得口語發(fā)音并不需要關注。但事實上,口語最基本的一項評分就是:發(fā)音清晰,能讓考官聽懂學生的答案。ETS的評分官每天都要評判上百份口語答案,所以一個讓評分官需要十分費力才能猜測出大概意思的答案,是很不討喜的。
答題時間要控制
很多學生在口語答題中只關注答題時間,認為把時間湊夠了,分數(shù)就能上去。其實,為了湊時間重復性復述內容并不能提高分數(shù),相反,把內容清晰地表述出來并做好總結更重要。同時,小編也告訴大家一點,如果你的答案已經做到邏輯清楚,有理有據,即便沒有說完所有的點,對于分數(shù)的影響并不大。
日常開口要落實
對于口語來說,開口練習十分重要。備考的同學除了上課時間,在平時務必準備一些音頻材料(口語task 1,task 2問題,美國新聞素材等),爭取做到每天都有開口練習,培養(yǎng)自己說話的能力。對于口語部分,再多的模板、機經,都不如熟練會話的能力更有效。

不要機械背答案
ETS在判分口語的時候,會讓判分員特別注意模板和背誦類型的答案,這些答案是會被壓分的??忌鷤円貏e小心。哪怕你已經準備了模板,也要加入適當?shù)耐nD,口頭語,連詞,來豐富自己的答案,讓它更“個性化”。
語速不要太夸張
有好多同學為了展示自己的口語水平或者為了答全所有的論點,常常會提高語速。殊不知這么做在口語部分往往得不償失。英語作為我們的第二語言,熟練程度不高,一旦提高語速,往往會造成發(fā)音不清,語法錯誤或人稱誤用的情況。所以,小編建議大家:“正常語速,條理清晰”是最佳的答題策略。
答案結構不要亂
托福口語里,一個好的答案肯定是一個結構清晰的答案。鼓勵大家:一,多用簡單句,少用復雜句。二,開門見山,指出觀點或者文中論點,再加上例子或者個人看法,最后再總結。
托福口語考試的評分準則
1. 中心是否切題:
解釋:考察考生所表達的口語內容是否完整、準確地回答了題目的要求??疾熘攸c在于考生是否能夠準確理解題意和準確迎合題意兩個層次。
2. 意思是否明白:
解釋:考察考生所表達的口語內容是否能夠被明白地理解,還是表面上很流利,而實際上語義含糊、不知所云。
3. 結構是否嚴密:
解釋:考察考生是否有能力將口語用嚴密的結構和邏輯表達出來,還是缺乏層次,信馬由韁。
4. 表達是否連貫:
解釋:考察考生口語的語流是否有停頓,這包括思維停頓和表達停頓兩方面的原因或表現(xiàn)。但此標準并未對考生的口語表達速度作硬性的要求
5. 發(fā)音是否清楚:
解釋:考察考生的發(fā)音是否能夠做到純正、清晰。起碼理解起來并不因為口音的問題存在障礙。
6. 語法是否正確:
解釋:考察考生是否能夠熟練的使用較復雜的句子結構表達思想,同時盡量避免錯誤。
7. 詞匯是否熟練:
解釋:考察考生是否可以掌握足夠的英語詞匯進行表達,考察重點在熟練度和準確度兩個方面。但此標準并未對考生的用詞難度作硬性的要求。
怎樣做到托??谡Z考試中的連貫性
1. 運用總分總的結構
Your listeners will understand your talk better if you organize what you say in a logical sequence or linear pattern. This means that you tell the listeners what you are going to talk about and then go through the points you want to make. The most common pattern of organization is outlined below:
Introductory statement
Point 1
Point 2
Point 3
Concluding statement
An example of this pattern is shown below:
Breeding butterflies has many advantages for the collector.
1. way of obtaining specimens
2. spares can be released into the wild
3. helps survival because butterflies have been protected from natural predators
The experience is a learning experience for the collector and a benefit to the species.
2. 運用連接詞
Connecting ideas by using transition words and phrases tells your listeners the relationship of one idea to the next. You can signal to your listener that you are going to put events in a sequence, add information, or make a comparison. You can signal that you want to emphasize or clarify a point. Using transition words and phrases helps your listener follow the flow of your ideas. Read the following example without transitional expressions:
In my physics class, we did lots of experiments that helped clarify scientific principles. I understood those principles better by doing those experiments.
These sentences would flow better if the speaker used transitional expressions as in the following example:
In my physics class, we did lots of experiments that helped clarify scientific principles. As a result, I understood those principles better.
3. 解釋或定義陌生概念
In order to help your listeners understand, you may need to define a term that you use in your response. Read the following example:
My hobby is telemark skiing.
If the speaker does not define the term and listeners do not know what telemark skiing is, they might not understand the rest of the passage. Sometimes listeners can guess the meaning through the context of the passage, but sometimes they cannot. Here is the definition this speaker gave of telemark skiing:
That means skiing using telemark skis.
Even though the speaker defined telemark skiing, listeners still may not understand what it means because the speaker defined the term with the same word. To effectively define a word, use a three-part definition:
1. State the word or phrase to be defined.
2. Give the category that the word or phrase fits into.
3. Tell how the word is different from other words that fit the same category.
Read this example of an effective definition:
Telemark is a type of alpine skiing in which the boots are connected to the skis only at
the toes, so traditional skiing techniques have to be modified.
4. 正確使用平行結構
Your listener can understand the flow of your ideas better if you use parallel structures when you speak. Read the following incorrect example:
My teacher gave interesting assignments and motivating the students.
The listener may be confused because the speaker has mixed different grammatical structures. Does the speaker mean My teacher gave interesting and motivating assignments to the students'? In this sentence, interesting and motivating are parallel adjectives. Or does the speaker mean My teacher gave interesting assignments and motivated the students? In this sentence, gave and motivated are parallel verbs.
5. 對關鍵詞進行替換或同義轉換
When a speaker keeps repeating a word or phrase, listeners can get confused. Read the following example:
My teacher wrote the assignment on the chalkboard. The assignment was on the chalkboard until the teacher erased the assignment after we had all done the assignment.
This speaker's ideas would be clearer if the repeated words were replaced with other expressions or with pronouns. Look at the way this example can be improved:
My teacher wrote the assignment on the chalkboard. She erased the board after we had all completed the task.
The word assignment has been replaced with task; the word teacher with she; and the word chalkboard with board.
6. 時態(tài)、人稱和數(shù)量的統(tǒng)一
Your listener can get confused if you are not consistent. Look at the following example:
My teacher brought five paper bags to school one day. He put us into groups and gave each group a bag. You have to take the objects out of the bags in turn and then a person has to tell a story involving the object from the bag.
The listener may get confused by the change from the past tense to the present tense, and the change from us to you and then to a person. The listener might also be confused by the change from the plural form objects and bags to the singular forms object and bag.
The listener could follow this speaker's ideas better if the speaker were consistent. Look at the way this example can be improved:
One day my teacher put us into five different groups. He gave each group a bag and told us to take turns pulling out an object and telling the other members of the group a story involving that object.
