雅思口語的第二部分讓眾多考生頭疼。很多烤鴨抱怨時間不夠加上語言組織太亂,快要被口試部分逼瘋,考過的學生大部分都知道口語實在是太難拿高分,很多時候,就是口語和作文部分拖後腿了,不然7分早就到手了。
其實大家這樣覺得主要有兩個原因:
1)詞彙和語法不過關。口試部分注重於說,所以你需要掌握一定數量的詞彙,而且會熟練使用。當然既然是考試,語法部分也需要多花點時間,如果你說出一句話,裡面每一個正確的語法點,那就顯得很尷尬了。這樣下來,口試部分分數就只有5分左右了。
2)沒話說。中國學生大多都很內斂,尤其是要面對一個外國人用第二語言滔滔不絕聊天,換誰都覺得沒話聊。很多烤鴨留言問我,我就是不知道要說什麼,這該怎麼辦?其實,這個問題也不難解決,只要你注重每一個小細節,一點一點說就可以了,舉個具體例子:
Do you like reading books?why?
Reading a book is very mind stimulating, it allows for you to explore with your imagination.Reading allows you to understand things from other people' s perspectives point of viewthis helps in real life when you need to understand, where people are coming from.When you read you come across new words that you can add to your everyday vocabulary.Reading introduces you to new information,for example when you read news papers and magazines.Reading is a great way to meet other readers,you could start a book club in your school,and discuss the book E or books you're all reading this is a great way to brush up on your English skills.
可以看到在這個例子中,先後談到了reading的5個好處,每一個好處都與自身的進步有關。
explore with your imagination
understand things from other people' s perspectives point of view
across new words that you can add to your everyday vocabulary
new information
a great way to brush up on your English skills.
3)發音不過關。考雅思的學生其實發音總體而言還不錯,至少都能拿個6分,但是,如果你想要口語部分最後總分更高一些,就需要注意一些詞的特別發音,比如:l,r,w等等這些有難度的音,不要求帶有外國人的口音,但發音必須得要清晰。
為了避免發生以上的問題,我給大家介紹一個TSE方法。
T:Topic Sentence 主題句
S:Supporting Ideas支持觀點
E: Examples 例子
T:在講五大原則任何一個的時候,務必把這個原則與你聯繫在一起,開頭的時候有個主題句,通過這句話引入下面的支持觀點,這個主題句可以通過一到兩句話來完成,但最好是對你有影響的。
S:支持觀點,在這裡要注意,我相信很多同學都會用觀點來支持自己,但太過於白話文,大部分用例子來支撐,過渡詞用什麼好呢?最好用well , also , actually ,as a matter of fact , you know 等等詞。千萬不要用一些作文中常用的詞,For example,First , secondly, last but not the least這樣給考官的感覺是在背作文,而不是在和考官聊天。
E:例子是TSE方法中最重要的, E講的例子必須是發生在你身上,感受到的,經歷過的,而不是發生在你身邊。只有這樣才會對你產生具大的影響。
例子:
What's the difference between reading a real book or e-book?
A real book is a bit more intimate, you are able to touch and feel the pages as you flip through them, you can buy cute bookmarks to place on the pages you stopped reading. You' re less likely to strain your eyes cause you can read with natural light. An Ebook on the other hand is great too, you can download multiple books onto one portable device, it may strain your eyes tostare into a screen for a long time, and thebattery would require charging. Ebooks are saving the amount of paper we use to print out actual books every year andthis is important because we have to savethe trees, a because trees give us andthe animals that live on the planet oxygen.But I prefer having an actual book. I always travel with a novel....
Does the weather affect your mood?How?
Yes.When it' s raining and cold, I feel very GLUMLY and would stay home watching movies in bed.When it's sunny,I’m in a CHEERFU Land usually take a swim at home and play with my golden retriever dog Trevor. When it' s a thunderstorm outside. I get SCARED because I am AFRAID of lightning. When there is a sandstorm, I' m IRRITATED because the sand gets everywhere and we have to clean it up after the storm is over.
當然,以上都是自己在做準備時需要注意的事項,如果說部分烤鴨喜歡別人一起幫助練習口語,或者說,想要直接和老外對話,提前適應考試分為,我在這裡推薦幾個雅思口語app:
雅思哥:雅思口語利器,包含了歷年雅思口語真題,以及機經,是一款練習口語的不錯的app。
口語俠:歐美外教一對一語音視頻教學,主要針對雅思口語,一個課時30分鐘。外教教學經驗豐富,且教育背景很優秀,有些老師是前雅思考官,價格比同行而言低很多。
流利說雅思:之前是雅思流利說,後來改名了,主要是真人AI口語測試,還能時實打分,能很好地檢測你的口語水平,但是這個打分也是要付費的,價格也不貴。
