几个小窍门,让雅思考官分分钟爱上你的口语

一提起雅思口语,不少“考鸭”就犯怵。短短十几分钟,在不少人眼里却“度秒如年”,不少人还没进考场就紧张得“说都不会话了”。进了考场,面前是被各种传闻“妖魔化”的考官,考试还没结束“考鸭”的心理阴影面积就已经直逼正无穷。

怎样才能打动考官,从而得到一个还不错的口语分数呢?正确答案可能不止一个,但一定离不开这两点:丰富的细节和地道的表达。

不少考生常常用一句话,甚至几个字就把考官给“打发”了。例如:Do you prefer eating at home or eating out? 如果回答 I prefer to eat at home. 就算考官想给你高分都给不了。雅思考查的是语言水平,这样的回答实在体现不出很高的语言运用能力。能力要怎样体现呢?细节描述是一个很有效的方式。上面的问题可以这样回答:

My preference would be eating at home because I feel that eating at home is money-saving and there’s an insurance for the food quality; whereas when I eating out it offers more choices and it’s hassle-free, but speaking from a frugal perspective, I think eating out is costly.

开头表明立场(My preference would be eating at home)朗播英语长难句,之后给出两个原因(money-saving 和 insurance for the food quality)。接着运用比较,指出对立观点的优势(more choices 和 hassle-free)以及劣势(costly)。有了细节,就有了展示语言能力的机会。

同样,不少“考鸭”表示 Part 2 难度最大,答题卡上的问题都答完了,时间还没过一分钟,剩下的一分钟只能硬着头皮把刚才说过的话换种方式再说一遍。其实只要加上细节,这些问题就能迎刃而解。例如,描述某次转校或者搬家的经历。如果没有细节,如新旧环境的比较以及个人的感受,这两分钟会很难挨。下面一段素材没有所谓的大词,没有复杂的句型,但丰富的细节值得参考雅思口语上不了7分?你只差这6个细节,大家随意感受一下。

I remember moving to a new home when I was in primary school. It wasn’t a smooth transition at all. We moved from one side of town to the other side of town. The living environment improved a lot and our home was a lot bigger, but it felt different. I didn’t know anyone and I didn’t have anyone to play with. All the neighbours didn’t feel very close to each other and it felt very cold. Living in the new place felt like a new life for me. I took me about half a year to get into the new tempo and feel cozy. I forced myself to be proactive and started to meet new friends. After developing a new social circle, I felt a lot better and I started to have a better peace of mind. This was a big thing for me in my childhood and it made me into an adaptable person.

开头回答了时间和地点并概括了搬家的感受(wasn’t a smooth transition),接下来描述各种细节,说明为什么有这样的感受。描述主要通过对比,除了比较物理环境(The living environment improved a lot and our home was a lot bigger),更比较了邻里关系并表达了自己的感受(…, but it felt different. I didn’t know anyone and I didn’t have anyone to play with. All the neighbours didn’t feel very close to each other and it felt very cold.)。之后描述自己如何改变现状(I took me about half a year to get into the new tempo and feel cozy. I forced myself to be proactive and started to meet new friends. After developing a new social circle, I felt a lot better and I started to have a better peace of mind.)以及此次经历对自己的影响(This was a big thing for me in my childhood and it made me into an adaptable person.)。

地道的表达

朗播英语长难句

有了丰富的细节还不够朗播英语长难句,表达不地道就不能算有较高的语言运用能力。地道的表达可以体现在很多方面,这里主要从词汇方面入手。下面几个 tip 简单却很有效,诸君且看且珍惜。

TIP 1. 转折用 though 替换 but

当你想说 but 来转折语气,不妨试着在句子后面加个 though,例如:

Our team lost. It was a good game, though.

Middle-aged people like to cook at home, young adults are a bit different, though.

TIP 2. 多用副词

副词在口语中应用额很广泛。如 exactly, basically, really 之类表示程度的副词可以使表达更准确。例如:

That's exactly what I want!

朗播英语长难句

Where are you going exactly?

So basically, there's not a lot I can do about it.

The more expensive articles are not necessarily better.

另外,用副词修饰形容词也可以加强语气。例如:

She's shockingly beautiful.

It's an outrageously expensive meal.

TIP 3. 用 tend to 替换 most of

当你想说 most of 的时候,不妨改成 tend to,增加词汇多样性。例如:

We tend to cook at home instead of dining out. (we tend to = most of us)

TIP 4. 避免过多使用 very

朗播英语长难句

口语答案里面呢朗播英语长难句,要有意识的尽可能抛弃 very,一种方法是用 pretty 替代,另一种就直接用个更高级的形容词。例如:

That performance was pretty impressive.

I'm pretty sure about that.

He was furious (=very angry) with himself for letting things get so out of control.

TIP 5. 避免生硬地说 NO

回答考官问题时,直接用 No 略显生硬,下面的说法能委婉地表达否定的意思。

-Does your school have diving classes?

-Not that I'm aware of, no.(潜台词:可能有,不过我不知道。)

-Have you ever had the experience when you watched the sky for a long time?

-Not that I can think of, no.(潜台词:可能有,不过我暂时想不到。)
