雅思口語(yǔ)考場(chǎng)中的三重障礙!小編今天給大家?guī)?lái)了雅思口語(yǔ)考場(chǎng)中的三重障礙，希望能夠幫助到大家，下面小編就和大家分享，來(lái)欣賞一下吧。
雅思口語(yǔ)考場(chǎng)中的三重障礙
一般考生在備考的過(guò)程中，須渡三重障礙，方能新鮮出爐，收獲果實(shí)。
障礙一：無(wú)話可說(shuō)
剛接觸雅思口試的一些考生會(huì)出現(xiàn)這樣的情況：考試中，被問(wèn)問(wèn)題時(shí)，左思右想不知如何作答，于是便以沉默回應(yīng)。同時(shí)對(duì)面的口語(yǔ)考官也秀出一張poker face(冷酷的面龐)，對(duì)考生冷漠的表現(xiàn)不予理會(huì)。此時(shí)，恐怕整個(gè)考場(chǎng)的空氣都要凝固了。
出現(xiàn)以上情況的主要原因之一是思維短路，而導(dǎo)致思維短路的因素又主要涵蓋兩個(gè)層面：對(duì)口語(yǔ)考試話題“熟悉度不夠”及“思路單一”。
面對(duì) “熟悉程度不夠”，考生可以主動(dòng)尋找素材，比如上網(wǎng)查詢或大范圍閱讀。這是一項(xiàng)需要考生長(zhǎng)期積累才可解決的問(wèn)題。
而面對(duì)“思路單一”，則建議考生答題的時(shí)候換種思考方式，比如在回答Do you think flowers are important?這個(gè)問(wèn)題時(shí)，多數(shù)新考生會(huì)直接回答Yes, I do./No, I don’t, because…because…because…”這里之所以不斷重復(fù)because這個(gè)詞，是因?yàn)橄氩怀鲆绾螖U(kuò)展回答。但如果我們換種思路，比如反向思考If there were no flowers, what would be like? (如果沒有花，那世界會(huì)變成什么樣?)也許，看到這兒，你會(huì)有更多的觀點(diǎn)敘述花的重要性。再比如，回答How often do you eat chocolate?這個(gè)問(wèn)題時(shí)，對(duì)于現(xiàn)在不喜歡吃巧克力的人來(lái)說(shuō)，直接解釋恐怕有點(diǎn)兒困難，因?yàn)楹芏鄷r(shí)候，不喜歡一些事物并沒有任何理由。但如果我們從不同的角度展開問(wèn)題，也許又可以讓自己變得健談起來(lái)。比如現(xiàn)在我很少吃巧克力，可能一年內(nèi)只吃一兩次，但是小的時(shí)候幾乎天天都吃，尤其是.口味。See?結(jié)合自身情況對(duì)比不同時(shí)間的特點(diǎn)，又可以拓展問(wèn)題了。
“總結(jié)一下，在初期備考時(shí)，如果碰到難題，直接解釋不了，不妨換種思路想想，也許就柳暗花明又一村了?！?/p>
障礙二：邏輯混亂
考生在口語(yǔ)考試備考中的第二大障礙是邏輯混亂?？忌鷤兊母鞣N“神邏輯”，經(jīng)常令聽者感到頭暈?zāi)垦?。這里所謂的“神邏輯”，通常是指由于連接詞、代詞等使用不當(dāng)而引起得邏輯不清。首先我們來(lái)看看錯(cuò)誤最多的連接詞?？忌鷤冇玫米疃嘁插e(cuò)得最多的是because和so。請(qǐng)看以下幾個(gè)例句：
1. I go to school from Monday to Friday, because my parents go to work every single day. 我周一至周五上學(xué)的原因是我的爸爸媽媽每天都要上班。
2. The teacher told me this website, so I use it twice a week. 我每個(gè)星期使用兩次這個(gè)網(wǎng)站的原因是老師推薦的這個(gè)網(wǎng)站。
第一個(gè)例句中的邏輯混亂體現(xiàn)在上學(xué)的直接原因可以是學(xué)校是社會(huì)的一角，去上學(xué)可以了解并學(xué)會(huì)融入這個(gè)社會(huì)，也可以是上學(xué)可以讓我們更科學(xué)化的了解這個(gè)世界，而不應(yīng)是爸爸媽媽也上班，雖然這可能是有些考生的理由之一，但不一定符合主流的邏輯思維，也就是考官的評(píng)分思路，所以也就無(wú)法形成so和because的關(guān)系。
同樣在第二個(gè)例子中，使用網(wǎng)站的原因應(yīng)該是網(wǎng)站的內(nèi)容或功能不錯(cuò)，而不是因?yàn)槔蠋熗扑]的，老師推薦的網(wǎng)站也有可能不好用，這之間又不能構(gòu)成直接的因果關(guān)系，而如果考生在表述中用了so或because強(qiáng)制將其形成因果關(guān)系，就會(huì)出現(xiàn)邏輯混亂。
另外，除了代表因果類的連詞會(huì)被混亂使用之外，轉(zhuǎn)折性連詞的使用對(duì)一些考生也具有一定的挑戰(zhàn)。比如，有些考生會(huì)把while, whereas和but的意思相混淆，雖然三者都有轉(zhuǎn)折之意，但but的轉(zhuǎn)折意向更為強(qiáng)烈，而其余兩個(gè)單詞一般用于平行對(duì)比。請(qǐng)對(duì)比下面兩個(gè)句子的含義：1)Talking of sports, most girls enjoyswimming; while/whereas most boys like playing football; 2)Talking of sports, most girls enjoy swimming, but she likes playing football. 在第二個(gè)句子中，明顯強(qiáng)調(diào)的是“她喜歡踢足球”，而第一個(gè)句子僅僅是平行對(duì)比男孩女孩喜歡的運(yùn)動(dòng)而已，并沒有特別強(qiáng)調(diào)某個(gè)人的喜好。
最后，個(gè)別代詞的錯(cuò)誤使用也會(huì)讓聽者感到無(wú)比費(fèi)解。有學(xué)生前一句中講到I love novels，結(jié)果后半句中出現(xiàn)了it’s really interesting，不知道這里的it到底指代的是哪一本novel。還有同學(xué)剛說(shuō)完people如何如何，后面又出現(xiàn)了it…居然把人變了屬性,而且還將各類人統(tǒng)一變成了it…,聽者表示實(shí)在很難理解其中的含義。不論怎樣，多數(shù)情況下都是代詞it惹的禍，所以要格外注意它的使用。
“了解了上述各種“神邏輯”，相信各路烤鴨們都能在備考時(shí)特別注意連接詞和代詞的含義及其使用方式，最終可以讓考官理解清楚我們的邏輯?！?/p>
障礙三：語(yǔ)意混淆
如果你已經(jīng)跨越了雅思口語(yǔ)的第二道坎兒，那么恭喜你，離成功不遠(yuǎn)了?，F(xiàn)在你基本上可以和外籍考官侃侃而談，而且你的思路清晰，對(duì)方可以大致跟上你的節(jié)奏。BUT有時(shí)候，對(duì)面的歪果仁還是會(huì)認(rèn)為我們國(guó)人講的英文有點(diǎn)兒晦澀難懂。
首先看三個(gè)中式英語(yǔ)表達(dá)：
1. relax myself
2. make hard efforts
3. …this subject is close to money
在英文中，“讓我自己很放松”只有relax me這種說(shuō)法，沒有relax myself這么一說(shuō);“付出了辛苦的努力”一般在英文中叫做make a lot of efforts;而“一個(gè)離錢很近的專業(yè)”在英文中并非翻譯得那么直接，說(shuō)成…learning this subject enables me to earn more money會(huì)更合適一些。
除了各種中式搭配錯(cuò)誤，還有些詞義相近的表達(dá)也容易用錯(cuò)。比如，在I visited some sightseeing和The Great Wall is a famous building這兩句話中, 因?yàn)槟承﹩卧~理解偏差，導(dǎo)致聽者有些困惑。第一句中sightseeing表示“觀光”，怎么可以visit呢?一般最常見的搭配是go sightseeing;第二句里building一般表示“有屋頂和門窗的建筑”，而萬(wàn)里長(zhǎng)城顯然是不符合這樣一個(gè)特定含義的，只能用structure來(lái)形容。
想來(lái)，之所以我們?cè)谥v英文時(shí)會(huì)令英美人士感到費(fèi)解，很大程度上是緣于母語(yǔ)以及漢英字典的影響。
一方面，中文和英文是兩種不同的語(yǔ)系，很多措辭都不太一致，同學(xué)們總是習(xí)慣于逐字將中文意思翻譯成英文，導(dǎo)致出現(xiàn)諸如relax myself或learn knowledge的說(shuō)法;
另一方面，每每在漢英字典里查到了某個(gè)英文表達(dá)，多數(shù)同學(xué)會(huì)全盤接受，但其實(shí)一個(gè)英文單詞在不同場(chǎng)景下可能會(huì)有不同的含義，有時(shí)雖然漢語(yǔ)意思相似，但用法及英文含義卻不盡相同。比如前文中提到的structure 和building，雖然在多數(shù)漢英字典里兩個(gè)詞都被翻譯成“建筑”，但其實(shí)用法還是有點(diǎn)兒區(qū)別的。
所以，建議同學(xué)們查完漢英字典后，再把相應(yīng)的單詞放到特定情景下(比如用英英字典)double check一次。
經(jīng)歷了三重障礙的洗禮，想必你已經(jīng)有所頓悟，但還是建議各路烤鴨們?cè)趥淇嫉倪^(guò)程中，結(jié)合自身情況進(jìn)行練習(xí)。
建議考生們準(zhǔn)備一個(gè)記錄錯(cuò)誤的本子，每次練習(xí)完一個(gè)話題后，按照雅思口語(yǔ)的評(píng)分標(biāo)準(zhǔn)分門別類地記錄下自己的錯(cuò)誤表達(dá)。
剛開始可能會(huì)遇到很多障礙，但只要能夠循序漸進(jìn)地練習(xí)，慢慢就會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)，錯(cuò)誤會(huì)越來(lái)越少，口語(yǔ)也自然會(huì)越來(lái)越好。
雅思口語(yǔ)Part2話題答案:APP
這款app操作簡(jiǎn)單，只需要用我們的郵箱或者Facebook賬號(hào)注冊(cè)，就成為了這個(gè)program的一員，選擇你的角色(a sighted one or blind one)，保持log on狀態(tài)，就隨時(shí)可以接到求助消息或發(fā)出求助信號(hào)。
The App I’d like to share with you is called Be My Eyes, which is the most heart-warming App I’ve ever known. It is for now only available at iphone app store, and as we can tell from the name, it basically makes a live video connection from a blind person’s phone to a random sighted volunteer’s phone, so that the volunteer could help them with little day-to-day things, like matching up socks, finding out whether the food has passed its expiration date in the fridge, or things like that. Sometimes they might be uncomfortable always asking friends, relatives or neighbors for help with those simple tasks, so I guess that’s why the developer created this app.
When I first heard of it from the Internet, I was curious how it worked. So I installed it, and then I just really started liking it. I like that I have an opportunity to help people who can’t see in this way that is also kind of cool and kind of no hassle for me at all. When someone who’s blind or visually impaired needs help, the app will send a notification to me. I haven’t helped so many people yet, but I think what I’m doing with this app is really meaningful.
The app depends on there being enough volunteers. And the amazing thing about it is that with so many volunteers around the world, we could offer help at any time. Like, if a blind person needs help at 3 o’clock in the morning, the app just ping a volunteer in another time zone.
This app has enabled blind people to feel more independent than they were before, and I’m also glad that I could be of some help.
語(yǔ)言點(diǎn)解析：
1. sighted
= able to see; not blind
2. day-to-day
只放在名詞前面，involving the usual events or tasks of each day，例如：She has been looking after the day-to-day running of the school.
他還有一個(gè)用法，表示“逐日的”，planning for only one day at a time，例如：I have organized the cleaning on a day-to-day basis, until our usual cleaner returns.
3. expiration date
The date after which an official document, agreement, etc. is no longer valid, or after which something should not be used or eaten. 海外生存英語(yǔ)必備.
4. hassle
A situation that is annoying because it involves doing something difficult or complicated that needs a lot of effort. 例如：It's a hassle having to travel with so many bags. 下次想表達(dá)“一點(diǎn)兒不麻煩，舉手之勞”，就可以用no hassle at all.
5. visually impaired
-impaired表示having the type of physical or mental problem mentioned，例如：hearing-impaired children, speech-impaired.
雅思口語(yǔ)Part2話題答案:equipment at your home
中老年人特別喜歡逛的一個(gè)地方，就是“花鳥魚市”。那里有一件equipment，是可以放在雅思口語(yǔ)答案里的哦!那就是大大的觀賞魚缸!這個(gè)不但可以作為a piece of equipment at your home的答案，還可以作為A gift that you recently gave to others的答案!改一改還可以把它變成以前的一道雅思口語(yǔ)題目就是“家中老物件”。
Anyway, it’s been a long time now, and my cat is getting old, I mean, he won’t jump around and chase moving stuff any more, so I thought it would be a good time for my dad to pick up the old hobby. So I just went ahead and bought him a huge fish tank where he could keep as many fishes as he wants.
My dad was thrilled when he saw the gift. We placed it in our living room, and the best thing about it is that it’s not only a fish tank, but can also serve as a coffee table. It’s about this long (body language這個(gè)時(shí)候派上用場(chǎng)了，拿手比劃), and it’s adorned with precious stones. This tank has become my father’s favorite item in our home and he bought quite a few expensive tropical fish.
There are light bulbs on top of the tank, and when it’s getting dark, my dad likes to turn them on, and the whole living room would be lit up with the warm, soft light. So I have to say, it’s a great decoration.
And the fish tank is an advanced one. I mean, it’s equipped with a self-cleaning system that could filter the waste automatically. So the water is always crystal clear.
And the “view” (body language又出場(chǎng)了，請(qǐng)拿手指打引號(hào)) in the tank is gorgeous, I mean, if you look closer, it’s just like a real underwater world. It has seaweed, coral reefs, shells, everything you are supposed to see in the ocean.
So both of my dad and my mom are pretty satisfied with this gift.
語(yǔ)言點(diǎn)解析：
1. decorative
(Of an object or a building) decorated in a way that makes it attractive; intended to look attractive or pretty. 例如：
The mirror is functional yet decorative.
The decorative touches have made this house a warm and welcoming home.
2. place
A house or flat / apartment; a person’s home. 例如：
What about dinner at my place?
I’m fed up with living with my parents, so I’m looking for a place of my own.
3. thrilled
Very excited and pleased. 下次想表達(dá)“激動(dòng)的，興奮的”，不要光會(huì)用excited哦!例如：
I was thrilled to be invited.
如果想表達(dá)“對(duì)即將發(fā)生的好事兒特別激動(dòng)”的心情，可以用psyched，例如：
The kids are really psyched about the vacation.
4. adorn
To make something/ somebody look more attractive by decorating it or them with something. 這是個(gè)較為正式的說(shuō)法，某些情況下可以替換decorate，而且經(jīng)常用在被動(dòng)句式中，例如：
The walls were adorned with paintings.
雅思口語(yǔ)Part2話題答案:a way to save money
尤其是已經(jīng)在國(guó)外生活過(guò)一個(gè)學(xué)期的娃們，更會(huì)深有體會(huì)吧!之前從來(lái)沒進(jìn)過(guò)廚房的你是不是開始自己做飯了?衣服必須自己洗啊，哪里有錢送去干洗店(the dry cleaner’s)!甚至為了省個(gè)20刀頭發(fā)都開始自己剪了(cut my own hair to save money)!搬到新家自己布置(do my own home decorating)，家具必須得是宜家的，自己組裝(assemble the furniture on my own)，因?yàn)楸阋税?甚至有心靈手巧的孩子自己修車(do my own car repairs)，自己修熱水器啥的(do my own repairs around the house)，特全能!所以一個(gè)學(xué)期下來(lái)，真能省不少錢啊!
于是我們按照Do it yourself的原則，來(lái)搞一下雅思口語(yǔ)a way to save money這個(gè)話題吧：
Well, my way of saving money is to do things myself. Actually, it’s been a while since the last time I did it, but I’m gonna share it with you anyway.
The thing is, my ex boyfriend used to study in America, and I would visit him during summer vacations. Back then, we were students, we didn’t have that much money, you know. Besides, we basically spent most of the money on the flight tickets, so it was like, every day we were on a budget. So you see, we just had to be frugal and cut down on all those unnecessary costs. Our trick was to do everything by ourselves. Like, we would assemble the furniture on our own from IKEA ‘cause it’s a lot cheaper that way. We would do the laundry ourselves and bear the loud noise the clothes dryer made, instead of going to the dry cleaner’s. And we would cook our own meals, ‘cause we couldn’t afford to eat out every day.
The funniest part was that he used to get me to cut his hair, ‘cause according to him, each time I gave him a haircut, we would save, like 20 dollars, so that’s about 120 RMB, which was quite an amount of money. We’d rather spend the money on food or entertainment than in a barbershop. At first, I would just trim the bangs, and later I got bolder, and started to try new hairstyles. Sometimes it looked hilarious, but after I got the hang of it, it got much better.
So you see, that was how I, I mean, we, saved money, and it really worked.
語(yǔ)言點(diǎn)解析：
1. anyway
Anyway除了有“把扯遠(yuǎn)的話題扯回來(lái)”的功能之外，還有despite，even so的意思。例如：I'm afraid we can't come, but thanks for the invitation anyway.
2. The thing is, …
‘The thing is’ is used to introduce an important fact, reason or explanation.例如：I'm sorry my assignment isn't finished. The thing is, I've had a lot of other work this week. 有的時(shí)候我們還會(huì)看到thing前面有各種形容詞，常用的有funny，amazing，awful等。
3. cut down on
It means to reduce the size, amount or number of something. 例如：The doctor told him to cut down on his drinking.
4. trick
A way of doing something that works well or a good method. 例如：The trick is to pick the animal up by the back of its neck.
5. dry cleaner’s
A shop or store where clothes, curtains, etc. are cleaned, especially with chemicals. 就是“干洗店”。例如：Can you pick up my suit from the cleaner's?
6. eat out
To have a meal in a restaurant, etc. rather than at home. 例如：Do you feel like eating out tonight?
7. trim
To make something neater, smaller, better by cutting parts from it. 通常跟hair搭配使用，表示“修剪一下”，trim the bangs就是修一下劉海。同時(shí)，trim還有名詞的詞性，例如：a wash and trim.
8. get the hang of something
To learn how to do or to use something or to understand something. 例如：It's not difficult once you get the hang of it.
