托??谡Z提分重在細(xì)節(jié) 這3個(gè)替換用詞讓表達(dá)更有層次
托??谡Z替換用詞細(xì)節(jié):轉(zhuǎn)折不用But用Though
我們?cè)诰毩?xí)托??谡Z的時(shí)候,遇到轉(zhuǎn)折,我們習(xí)慣性的選擇but,難免有些千篇一律,給大家點(diǎn)建議,當(dāng)你想表達(dá)轉(zhuǎn)折語氣的時(shí)候不妨忍一下,在句子后面加個(gè)though,你要表達(dá)的立馬瞬間就不一樣了!
舉個(gè)例子:
Our team lost. It was a good game, though.
Middle-aged people like to cook at home, young adults are a bitdifferent, though.
這種用法是我們考試時(shí)候用的比較少,卻非常地道的一種用法。是不是比通篇的but!but!but!要好很多呢?假如能運(yùn)用在托??谡Z考試中,這絕對(duì)是一個(gè)加分項(xiàng)!
托??谡Z替換用詞細(xì)節(jié):用Tend to代替Most of
當(dāng)你想說most of…的時(shí)候,不妨改口成tend to,這樣一來,是不是會(huì)顯示你的詞匯量比較多呢?
舉個(gè)例子:
Most Chinese people cook at home instead of dining out. 就可以說成Chinese people tend to cook at home instead of dining out.
Tend to能代替被大家overuse的most of…/themajority of…效果絕對(duì)是杠杠的!
托??谡Z替換用詞細(xì)節(jié):減少Very使用次數(shù)
在托福口語答案里面,要有意識(shí)的盡可能拋棄very,一種方法是用pretty替代,另一種就直接用個(gè)更高級(jí)的形容詞。
舉個(gè)例子:
That performance was pretty impressive.
I’m pretty sure about that.
還有instead of saying “very angry”, you can use the word “furious”。
同理,如果我們想表達(dá)a little + adj.,也可以找到相應(yīng)的更傳神的形容詞,例如:tipsy = a little drunk,考生們?cè)谟迷~上盡量準(zhǔn)確,減少對(duì)very和little的使用次數(shù)!
真題講解:如何在托??谡Z中巧用動(dòng)詞詞組
托福官方指南就托??谡Z給廣大考生提了這么一點(diǎn)建議:Increase vocabulary and learn to use idiomatic speech appropriately. 擴(kuò)大詞匯量并學(xué)著用含有大量習(xí)慣用法的語料。美國(guó)人很喜歡在不同場(chǎng)合使用動(dòng)詞詞組(phrasal verbs)比如在跟朋友說再見的時(shí)候可以加一句Hit me up whenever you are free. 這里的hit me up就是一個(gè)動(dòng)詞詞組表示沒事多聯(lián)系我哦,這樣的表達(dá)不僅簡(jiǎn)單明了而且可以使語言更加生動(dòng)。在備考托??谡Z單項(xiàng)的過程中,如果大家積累一些動(dòng)詞詞組并能用在口語的回答當(dāng)中應(yīng)用的話不僅可以給考試加分,在以后的留學(xué)生活中也大有裨益。在TPO口語文本里面就出現(xiàn)了一些動(dòng)詞詞組比如:luck out(走運(yùn)), put it off(推遲), bump into(偶遇)等。接下來筆者就對(duì)一些常用的跟out 和off搭配的動(dòng)詞詞組做一下整理并以獨(dú)立題目為例展示如何應(yīng)用。
OUT: 表示向外
drop out; 跟quit同義即為退出;
題目:
Do you agree or disagree with the following statement: A person should study in the university to be successful.
如果我們不同意的話可以加一句:There are lots of successful business men who drop out of university, like Steve Jobs, Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerburg.
sort it out/figure it out/ work it out: 都是解決問題的意思。
如果是加入something的話需放在詞組后面如:
在第五題中可以使用這句話:He has two possible solutions to sort out the scheduling problem.
OFF:表示開始或者結(jié)束:
比如表示開始的:take off; The plane is about to take off. 飛機(jī)馬上就要起飛了。
set off: I am setting off tomorrow on a business trip to America. 明天我去美國(guó)商務(wù)旅行。
kick off: The meeting kicks off at four o'clock sharp. 會(huì)議四點(diǎn)準(zhǔn)時(shí)開始。
表示結(jié)束的有:
switch off:stop giving your attention to someone or something譯為停止對(duì)一件事件的關(guān)注;
題目:
Some students prefer to study for only one long time during a week. Others students prefer to study for several short times during a week. Which way do you prefer and why? Use specific reasons and examples to support your choice.
如果你選的是把學(xué)習(xí)的時(shí)間分為幾段的話就可以說這么一句話:It's nice just to switch off, forget about study once in a while and do something fun like playing some sports, go fishing or even mountain climbing.
round off: 以X.X.X 為結(jié)束;
在Describe a memorable activity with your friend. 這道題中我們以這句話結(jié)束:
We rounded off the activity with happiness.
托??谡Z如何復(fù)述? 應(yīng)遵循4大原則
托福口語考試共有六個(gè)題目,其中尤以后四個(gè)題目更加充分體現(xiàn)了融讀、聽、說在一起的特點(diǎn)。也就是說,在回答問題時(shí),你不必慷慨激昂地陳述自己的觀點(diǎn),而是要利用聽讀材料中的具體信息回答所提出的與材料有關(guān)的問題。這其實(shí)就是在考察考生是否具備了對(duì)先前讀到、聽到的材料進(jìn)行快速加工(歸納、總結(jié)、融合),然后再口頭輸出(變成自己的話)的口語復(fù)述能力。因而,為取得理想的成績(jī),在口試中,口語復(fù)述應(yīng)遵循如下原則:
1.準(zhǔn)確性原則(Accuracy)
準(zhǔn)確性強(qiáng)調(diào)要準(zhǔn)確挖掘與獲取聽、讀材料的中心思想與細(xì)節(jié)內(nèi)容,不能任憑主觀臆想;同時(shí)還要注意用準(zhǔn)確的語言輸出。
2.完整性原則(Integrity)
完整性指的是:一要全面采集與應(yīng)用聽、讀材料的信息,特別是不能遺漏任何重要的細(xì)節(jié);二是所提供的答案語言要完整。
3.客觀性原則(Objectivity)
客觀性是指要客觀陳述材料內(nèi)容,不能妄加主觀評(píng)論(除非有這樣的要求)。
4.簡(jiǎn)潔性原則(Concision)
簡(jiǎn)潔性強(qiáng)調(diào)的是要采用簡(jiǎn)練的口語進(jìn)行復(fù)述,不應(yīng)過分堆砌辭藻。(當(dāng)然了,幾十秒鐘的時(shí)間也不允許這樣做。)語言要樸素,同時(shí)還要注意避免說出與主題無關(guān)的話語,更不能車轱轆話來回說。
不可不看的托??谡Z獨(dú)立部分書籍、電影和音樂語料庫
托??谡Z評(píng)分標(biāo)準(zhǔn)中出了natural、spontaneous、improvised等類似的字眼,譯為自然即興的,也就是說rater評(píng)分者更希望看到考生即興的發(fā)揮而不是死板機(jī)械的背誦;但是如果考生平時(shí)不積累一些相關(guān)語料庫想必也不會(huì)達(dá)到信手拈來的地步,為此筆者給大家?guī)硪幌盗型懈*?dú)立口語部分中的常見話題語料庫,希望大家在背誦的基礎(chǔ)上把題目回答的更自然。
很多托友在遇到跟book、movie、music相關(guān)的獨(dú)立口語題目的時(shí)候除了會(huì)說可以陶冶情操之外再不會(huì)用其他的理由了,而可悲的是陶冶情操這個(gè)詞在英文中很難找到對(duì)應(yīng)的翻譯;這樣一來考生就被死死的卡在了這中題目上。其實(shí)如果我們仔細(xì)分析一下托福一二題的題目要求的話不難發(fā)現(xiàn)兩個(gè)詞examples and details,而如果合理的利用恰當(dāng)?shù)睦雍图?xì)節(jié)此類題目迎刃而解。筆者看來,跟book、movie、music相關(guān)的題目中可以用放松身心、增加學(xué)習(xí)效率、讓自己的生活變得更加充實(shí)等等來做example;并用書的名字、作者,音樂的種類、演唱者,電影的名字、劇情、演員的名字等來做details,這不僅讓我們的答案變得更加真實(shí)更會(huì)使回答變得生動(dòng)有趣。接下來我就以托福真題為例給大家提供關(guān)于以上話題的語料庫包括必備段落、短語和詞匯。
請(qǐng)看以下三道題目:
Describe a book that you believe is the most useful to you. Please explain the reason and include specific examples and details in your explanation.
Some people believe that the high school should teach music and art as other basic science. Some people think that providing music and art education for high school students is not necessary. What is your opinion and why?
Which is your favorite type of movie: action, drama, or others? Please include specific details and examples in your explanation.
不難發(fā)現(xiàn)以上三個(gè)題目中以不同形式出現(xiàn)了book、music、movie,如果大家對(duì)以下的語料庫熟讀并達(dá)到背誦的地步,以上類似題目絕不是問題。語料庫如下:
關(guān)于music的類型Type/genre: rock & roll, R&B, reggae, country, Jazz, electronic, folklore(民謠), classical music;
偉大音樂家的名字Great Musicians:Beethoven, Bach, Mozart
流行音樂人Pop singers: Eminem, Beyonce, Jay Z. Taylor Swift, Bruno Mars, Rihana.
電影的類型Types of movies:thriller(驚悚片), suspense(懸疑片), comedy, action, documentary, science fiction, romance(愛情片), Animation(動(dòng)畫片), horror (恐怖片)
有名的電影導(dǎo)演Director(后面附有該導(dǎo)演的著名電影名字):
Peter Jackson: Return of the King
Steven Speilberg: Jurassic Park (侏羅紀(jì)公園)
James Cameron: Avatar(阿凡達(dá)), Titanic
Christopher Nolan: the Batman, the Dark Night;
著名演員Actors and actresses: Jackie Chen, Bruce Lee, Brad Pitt, Angelina Julie, Leonardo DiCaprio
就電影、音樂和書籍的作用和效果而言,筆者總結(jié)了一下幾個(gè)共同特點(diǎn);所以當(dāng)考生看到任何跟電影、音樂和書籍有關(guān)的題目時(shí)都可以巧妙的應(yīng)用以下理由。
緩解壓力: ease/release + my pressure/stress/tension/depression from both my life and study;
讓生活和學(xué)習(xí)變得更有效率、充實(shí):improve /enhance/ increase + learning/study efficiency/productivity of the day;
精神煥發(fā):refresh myself, revitalize/revive my mood;
激起情感和想象力:bring about different kinds of emotions; stir/stimulate my imagination; (注解:聽音樂、看懸疑電影的時(shí)候)
句子:
小說、電影的線索很迷人:
The storyline/plot is very attractive/engaging/intriguing;
看電影、讀小說的時(shí)候身臨其境忘乎所以:
When I read this masterpiece/watch this movie, I find time irrelevant and I totally forget about the time. I tune everything out around me and am so attracted in the storyline and I feel tied up to the character in the novel/movie.
沒有什么可以阻止我看完這部小說或電影:
I feel like the characters in the novel/movie connect to me so much that nothing could hold me back from reading/watching it until I finish the novel/movie.
