雅思口語(yǔ)小竅門
潛規(guī)則一:不能只說Sorry.謙虛(modesty)是中國(guó)人的傳統(tǒng)(traditional)美德,影響(influence)并反映在每一個(gè)中國(guó)人身上。時(shí)至今日還有不少人在奉行著孔子在兩千多年前的信條(belief):“知之為知之,不知為不知,是知也。”這固然是一種優(yōu)點(diǎn)(advantage),但在實(shí)際操作的時(shí)候還要講求方法(method)。拿雅思口語(yǔ)考試來說,如果(if)考生不認(rèn)識(shí)或聽不懂考題中的某個(gè)單詞(word),他們完全有權(quán)利(right)來問考官,而且不會(huì)被扣分。關(guān)鍵在于怎么問(how to ask)—假如你只是說一句Sorry或Sorry, I don’t know,給考官的印象(impression)就是你缺乏最基本的(basic)社交能力(social ability),甚至是一種不禮貌(impolite)、不友好的(unfriendly)態(tài)度(attitude),此類考生一定會(huì)被潛規(guī)則掉(即落入最多5分的范圍)。相反,如果你說“Sorry, what does this word mean?”或“Sorry, what does that mean?”或“Sorry, could you please explain this word to me?”,那是完全可以被接受的(accepted)問話方式(way)?!?因此,考生在碰到生詞(new word)或聽不懂某個(gè)單詞的意思(meaning)時(shí),
”1切莫慌張(因?yàn)槁牪欢呛苷5氖?;
2一定要使用得體的語(yǔ)言(language)來詢問考官,千萬(wàn)不能只說一聲Sorry!潛規(guī)則二:話語(yǔ)中一定要有something original.先問一個(gè)常識(shí)性的問題(question),希望大家能不加思考地回答我:如果你是一位雅思口語(yǔ)考官,每次考試要接待30個(gè)考生,而每次問到food時(shí),30個(gè)人都會(huì)異口同聲地說delicious;每次問到What do you think of Shanghai?時(shí),30個(gè)人的開場(chǎng)白都是Shanghai is a beautiful city …,這時(shí)你會(huì)有怎樣的感受(feeling)和心情(mood)?拿那位考官的話來說,“You will be bored to death!”(你會(huì)郁悶到死!)直白地說(frankly),考官也是人啊,也有人的所有感情及情緒啊,每天都聽到delicious, beautiful, impor tant, international這些陳詞濫調(diào),不煩悶才怪呢!因此(therefore),官?gòu)?qiáng)烈建議(sugges t)考生:You must say something original and don’t say “beautiful” all the time. 也就是說,在考官心目中,原創(chuàng)的精神(original spirit)比什么都重要,再好的詞匯、再優(yōu)美的語(yǔ)言,一旦成了人人口中的陳詞濫調(diào)或“口水話”(英文叫cliché),就比任何東西都要糟糕(worse)?!? 就剛才的food問題,我們完全可以說fantastic, incredible, marvelous等表示贊賞的詞,而談到對(duì)Shanghai的看法,情愿用Shanghai is a great city這種更簡(jiǎn)單的語(yǔ)言來避免機(jī)械化的套路。說到原創(chuàng)精神的培養(yǎng)(training),
”1多開發(fā)點(diǎn)同義詞和近義詞,來替代原來的cliche;2是多與外教交流(communicate),及時(shí)注意他們?cè)谟迷~方面的原創(chuàng)之處。“比如老外絕對(duì)不會(huì)去說learn knowledge ,而有一次我聽到一位外教說recipients of knowledge(知識(shí)的接受者),我就趕緊記下來,日后可以為我所用。規(guī)則三:最恨兩樣?xùn)|西 — generalized & memorized??脊僮詈迌蓸?xùn)|西,一個(gè)是過于籠統(tǒng)抽象的回答(generalized response),另一個(gè)是死記硬背的答案(memorized answer),并坦白地說,一旦考官發(fā)現(xiàn)有這種傾向性(inclination),會(huì)立即糾正(correct)或警告(warn)考生,而如果考生繼續(xù)一意孤行的話,就把他們直接“打入地獄”。
通常的做法是bring them back to a narro wer topic或者interrupt their memo rized answer and ask them a very different question,由此可見考官對(duì)整個(gè)考試的操作靈活度是相當(dāng)大的,也同時(shí)對(duì)各位考生提出了一種警示(warning):膽敢用事先背好的答案在資深考官面前“耍大刀”無(wú)異于在玩一場(chǎng)極其危險(xiǎn)的游戲(dangerous game),而該游戲的最終失敗者還是你自己!“ 在此給出專家的建議(suggestion form experts):背誦一些優(yōu)秀的答案的確是有助益的(helpful),但需要注意兩點(diǎn),
”1盡量把memorized answer內(nèi)化,即變成你思想的一部分或你自己平時(shí)講話的一部分;2在背誦(reciting)之后,至少要能用三種不同的方式來復(fù)述(retell)一遍。潛規(guī)則四我們的彈性很足!這是那位考官的原話,“We can use a lot of flexibility in the exam?!弊屑?xì)了解下來,發(fā)現(xiàn)這種彈性對(duì)于考生來說,既有有利的地方,也有不利之處。
舉例來說,在Part2有道題目是 Describe a structure that you like,在老外的生活常識(shí)里面,structure一般是指一種人工建筑(樓房、大廈或像長(zhǎng)城那樣的土木工程),但如果某位考生不太理解這一點(diǎn),而去描述了the structure of a company,費(fèi)聞立說那也無(wú)可厚非,考生可以靈活理解某個(gè)單詞的含義,考官也同樣應(yīng)該靈活接受考生的這種變通。
接下,在Part 2的描述題中有三個(gè)小問題,考生是否需要一絲不茍地一一進(jìn)行回答,以及萬(wàn)一漏掉了會(huì)不會(huì)扣分??脊僬f,“I don’t care if they answer all the three questions or not, as long as they stay on the topic. These little questions are just a guide, and candidates are allowed to talk about something else within the topic?!睋Q言之,考官不會(huì)在意你是否老老實(shí)實(shí)地把描述題中的所有小問題都予以回答,他關(guān)注的是你有沒有能力進(jìn)行長(zhǎng)達(dá)2分鐘的細(xì)節(jié)描述、描述的生動(dòng)性和可信性、以及你的用詞變化。
但彈性不一定都是一件好事—如果你是一位優(yōu)秀的(excellent)考生,口語(yǔ)也達(dá)到了一定的水準(zhǔn),那么考官會(huì)在Part 3的問答中reword the questions to make it more difficult(通過改變措詞來加大問題的難度),而改變的方法往往是increase the difficulty of vocabulary,比如通常的一個(gè)問題是What are the advantages and disadvantages of a strong family relationship? 但經(jīng)過考官的一番改裝之后,變成了What are some of the pros and cons of a strong family bond? 顯然,這種彈性是大多數(shù)考生不愿看到的,但現(xiàn)實(shí)情況是:越是高端的考生越需要做好考官萬(wàn)一換詞的心理準(zhǔn)備(preparation),也只有經(jīng)歷過并存活下來的考生才能獲取高分(high score),正所謂“不入虎穴、焉得虎子!”潛規(guī)則五:是生是死都在Part 3!這絕對(duì)是令人感到震撼的一句話,就出自這位考官之口。我們絕大多數(shù)考官在長(zhǎng)期接觸考生的過程中,已經(jīng)養(yǎng)成了一種習(xí)慣:把Part 1看成只是warm-up,因?yàn)榭忌鷦側(cè)雸?chǎng),緊張、忐忑、焦慮、惶恐等不良情緒都或多或少存在(exist),所以Part 1的目的主要是打破考生心中的冰山,讓考生安定下來,以便達(dá)到后面的最佳狀態(tài)。
在Part 2中,由于不少中國(guó)考生備考非常認(rèn)真(serious),對(duì)每種可能出現(xiàn)的描述題都準(zhǔn)備得很充分,即使是事先背出的答案也能說得十分自然流暢(fluent),就像自己思考出來的那樣,因此考官很難確定是真是假。老外有一個(gè)很優(yōu)秀的傳統(tǒng)(tradition):在無(wú)法判定善與惡、是與非、真與假、美與丑的情況下,寧可相信前者而非后者。很多老外也知道自己的這一軟肋,所以更傾向于把Part 2視為一個(gè)灰色地帶,一個(gè)緩沖區(qū),一個(gè)可以從側(cè)面大致了解考生程度的考察部分,也就是說考生在Part 2的發(fā)揮優(yōu)異與否和最終的分?jǐn)?shù)關(guān)系不大,它并非真正的考驗(yàn)(test)。
那位考官不止一次地提到,只有Part3才是決定考生命運(yùn)的一道關(guān)卡!作為整個(gè)口語(yǔ)考試中的最后一道防線,Part 3在所有考官心目中的份量重于泰山。拿考官的話來說,“It is the third part that’s really important?!痹谶@道生死關(guān)上,考官會(huì)想盡辦法讓你用creative thinking來進(jìn)行回答(answer),而富有經(jīng)驗(yàn)的(experienced)考官更會(huì)問一些“前無(wú)古人、后無(wú)來者”的問題,徹底顛覆你妄圖使用現(xiàn)成答案的幻想!道理很簡(jiǎn)單(simple),因?yàn)橹挥羞@樣,你的真實(shí)(true)水平才會(huì)在考官面前一覽無(wú)遺—他想看的就是這個(gè)。
因此,提議:雅思口語(yǔ)備考的70%以上的精力都必須用在Part 3上,只有把這一部分補(bǔ)足才是真正的強(qiáng)大,而其中“展望未來”、“利弊對(duì)比”、“事物差異”“今昔對(duì)比”等題型是難中之難,希望各位考生打起十二分的精神來應(yīng)對(duì)(deal with)它們。
雅思口語(yǔ)p2話題答案:good news that you received
You should say:
what this news was
when and where you heard it
how you heard it
and explain why you think it was good news
參考范文:
After I finished my graduation, I applied for 2-3 jobs and faced the interviews in these companies. One day I got a phone call from one of the companies from the HR department and the caller confirmed that I was hired for the job I applied for. This was a very exciting and good news for me as I was expecting to start a job so eagerly.
I did not know the person who called me at that time but later I found that he was the head of the human resources department of the company and his name was Kane. I heard it in (…say a year i.g. 2004…) and it was probably June.
My parents and relatives wanted me to get involved in a job right after my graduation and I felt the same. Some of my classmates were already doing jobs and I thought I should start a job as well. After I got the job confirmation call, I was very excited and happy. The first job confirmation in my opinion is very significant and exhilarating and I felt no less. I was so happy that I instantly confirmed that I’d be joining the job from the next week. Then I shared the news with my parents and sisters and they were very happy as we.

You should say:
What it is

And explain how you feel about it
前雅思考官高分范文模板
Ok, well I’d say the activity I probably like most when I’m on the beach is…
beach volleyball / frisbee 飛碟 / making sand castles 建造沙堡/ simply just lying on a deck chair 躺椅andlistening to the sound of the waves.
Unfortunately, I don’t (really) get that much of a chance to(我沒有那么多機(jī)會(huì)) play it, because I live quite far from the coast.
…so I only get the chance to play/do it when I’m on holiday, which is probably only about once or twice a year (or something左右).
It would be nice to do it more often, but what with work and everything(但由于工作和種.種原因), it’s just not possible.
(But anyway), as for who I play it with, well what normally happens is that I start playing with a few of myfriends who are with me on holiday, and then other people at the beach see us and ask if they can join (in).
Or it’s the other way round, you know, I’ll see people playing and ask to join (in).
The reason I enjoy it so much is that it’s just so fun, especially jumping around in the sand,
…what (also) makes it fun is that It’s something that I normally don’t get the chance to do.
The other cool thing about it is that you can dive for the ball (魚躍救球) and land softly in the sand, whereas而 if you tried doing that on a hard surface like concrete 混凝土, it would be extremely painful, as you can imagine! (就像你可以想象的!)
It’s also really good exercise, 這是很好的鍛煉
and I always feel (absolutely) exhausted 累死了after playing it.
It’s also a good way to make friends, because as I mentioned just now, I often end up playing with other people on the beach……and afterwards we might hang out for a bit……

A smile can brighten our day and lighten any situation.In today’s fast paced life we are forgetting the importance of smiling.
It was when I was travelling with my cousin to Chandigarh on a bus.It was around a month ago.There were around 50 passengers in the bus and of all age groups.People were doing different activities- some were talking to each other, a few were reading, children were busy playing games on the mobile phones and some were sleeping.After about half an hour into the journey, a passenger sitting in the middle of the bus started talking on the phone.He had a very loud voice and I could hear him even though I was sitting in one of the front seats.I couldn’t help hearing his conversation because of his loud voice.Apparently he was talking to his wife.From his conversation it seemed that he had forgotten their wedding anniversary.He was apologizing profusely to his wife and was saying that he was ready to buy her anything she wished for.That conversation lasted for more than 10 minutes, before his wife finally accepted his apology.After the call ended, the person heaved a sigh of relief.My cousin and I exchanged a few smiles during that conversation.And I happened to turn around and saw that everyone in the bus was smiling.Everyone in the bus had overheard his conversation and had enjoyed it.Even the person talking on the phone looked relieved and was smiling.Thinking about that journey still brings a smile to my face.I think that we should smile more often, like when we greet someone or thank someone.It can make someone’s day.
