考研复试想要好成绩,面试得准备好。那么,考研英语面试如何准备?
▶准备一份优质的自我介绍
大多数学校的英语口语首要的环节就是自我介绍。这也是为考研er送分的一个环节。不过,准备自我介绍也是有技巧的。如何避免前篇一律,突出自己的特点,且能够流畅地说出来,而不是生硬的背诵,还是需要考研er花费一定的时间的。
另外,很多考研er反映,有的学校复试英语根本没有机会用上自己精心准备的自我介绍。其实,不是没机会用,而是你没把握机会。且不说复试题目每年都会变,说不定今年就可能用上,如果自我介绍准备的足够充分,一些相关的问题也是可以用准备的自我介绍中的内容来回答的。
所以,不管怎么样,一份充分、优质的自我介绍是考研复试英语必须做的准备工作。
▶准备一些可谈论的话题
考试常常会包括其他一些内容,对有可能问到并展开的话题也要有所准备。要事先阅读一些相关文章,积累一些有关词汇。
一般来说,如果有外教面试,感兴趣的话题常常是考生所在国家或地区的文化和风俗习惯,如气候特征,特色食品,婚庆习俗,重大节日,名胜古迹,休闲娱乐等。
同时,考生也要关心社会上发生的大事和时事。最好经常阅读一些英文报刊和收听英语广播,或跟同伴及朋友一起讨论一些话题,这些都将有助于自己组织思想和练习表达的逻辑性。
▶准备用英语讲解自己专业
口语测试时,一些老师是直接问一些问题,如果他刚好研究你那个方向,那就问得更专业一点,他当然比你了解的多,而且还是英文!常常会有同学听不懂他提的问题!如果你对专业词汇并不熟悉,那么你的自我介绍就最好准备充分一点,会占去一些时间,他就没时间问你别的问题了,而且一下子说了一大串流利标准的英文,他当然给你高分。
老师有可能要求你就本专业展开话题,考查你用英语讲解陌生概念的能力。因此熟悉本专业常用的英语词汇,适当阅读新的专业外文期刊是必要的。如果老师问专业的,你很可能这个词都不认识,这怎么办呢?
需要注意:用英语问专业问题,没有一个老师会期待你有一个很好的回答,因为老师知道一个本科生是没有办法用英语来表述专业问题的。基本上大家都跟你一样的,不会回答的很好。不过,同学们只要动脑筋,用智慧,在参加复试之前的时候,一定要自己用英语准备至少三个专业的问题以及它的回答就没有太大的问题了。
考研英语面试该怎么准备
一、提前准备好自我介绍
每个专业在考研复试英语面试过程中必备的一个环节便是自我介绍,它是考生留给老师第一印象的“敲门砖”,考生在准备得时候要学会对自己的亮点进行包装,找到自己独特的优势,如:学术修养,大学期间阅读的著作,参加过的实践,与导师做过的课题,参加过哪些竞赛以及获得的奖项等,并同时要对本专业的专业术语进行准备,以防老师在提问的过程中遭遇尴尬。一个好的自我介绍能够为接下来的环节开一个好头,也能在最开始减少考生紧张情绪,提升考生自信。
二、考官问答
考研英语面试中,在自我介绍结束后,老师便会开始提问。注意在准备的过程中,要结合自己的经历和见解来准备答案,让自己回答的问题和整个的自我介绍融为一个整体。要不然很容易被考官抓住把柄,问个没完,很容易因紧张而露出马脚。在每一年的面试中都会有很多相同的问题,这些问题看起来很平常,却有很多陷阱,一不小心就会被考官抓住小辫子了。回答这些常见的看起来很平常的问题,是很有艺术的。在这里一共提供了几个常见的问题,本文进行了详细的分析。
1. What would you like to be doing five years after graduation?【在毕业以后5年内你想做些什么?】
你要清楚你实际上能胜任什么。加入你考MBA,可以事先和其他的MBA交流一番。问问他们在毕业后在公司的头5年都做了些什么。可以这样回答:“我希望能在我的职位上尽力做好工作,由于在同一领域工作的许多人都被提为区域负责人,所以我亦有此打算。”
2. What is your greatest strength?【你最突出的优点是什么?】
这是很多面试考官喜欢问的一个问题,也是你展示自己的最佳机会,不要吹嘘自己或过于自负,但要让雇主知道你相信自己,你知道自己的优点。如可答:“我认为我最大的优点是能够执着地尽力把事情办好。当做完一件工作而其成果又正合我的预想时,我会有一种真正的成就感。我给自己定了一些高目标。比如说,我要成为出色的毕业生。尽管在大学一年级时我启动慢了些,但最终我以优等论文完成了学业。”
3. What is your greatest weakness?【你最大的弱点是什么?】
你不应该说你没有任何弱点,以此来回避这个问题。每个人都有弱点,最佳策略是承认你的弱点,但同时表明你在予以改进,并有克服弱点的计划。可能的话,你可说出一项可能会给学校带来好处的弱点,如可说:”我是一个完美主义者。工作做得不漂亮,我是不会撒手的。”
4. How do you feel about your progress to date?【对于你至今所取得的进步你是怎样看的?】
绝不要对你以前的所作所为表示内疚。如可答:“我认为我在学校表现不错。事实上,有好几门功课我的成绩居全班第一。在某公司实习时,我获得了该公司数年来给予其雇员的好几项最高评价。”
三、尊重老师,态度诚恳
尊重老师在英语面试中主要体现在认真听老师提出的问题、对自己的点评,甚至是批评,不要与老师发生直接冲突,也不要认为自己的英语水平高而目中无人,老师的资历绝对比在场的考生高,因此一定要谦虚有礼貌;需要指出的是,正面的学术探讨是值得鼓励的,但是反对驳斥老师的意见与批评,甚至恶语相向是坚决不可以的。
四、注重礼仪
在面试场上,一定要注重自己的仪容仪态,女生可以适当化淡妆,男生要保持脸部的清爽,不要留胡须;男女生着装上不要过于前卫,不要奇装异服,建议穿比较沉稳的颜色;要注意考生在面试的过程中,坐姿和站姿一定要腰背挺直,拿出精气神,要注意始终面带微笑,学会眼神交流;全程切勿有不适当小动作如挠耳朵、咬嘴唇、翻白眼等,也不要因为在考场上听到自己熟悉的题目后就沾沾自喜,即使面试前做了充足的准备,也不能得意忘形,手插裤兜、摇头晃脑,这只会让人生厌。

范例1
Q: What is your plan in the postgraduate study? /How do you plan to study for your graduate programme?
A: I've already made a plan for my postgraduate study. If luckily I got the admission to this university, I would make good use of the two/three years. You know, the two/three years is very short for an aspirant pursuer for knowledge, so it's necessary to make a good plan both for my academic research and future career. First, I will try my best to grasp the theoretical knowledge and set the solid foundation for my further study. Second, if time permits, I will do some part-time job relevant to my major and in this way I can put the theory into practice. Third, I will apply for a doctor degree if impossible.
范例2
Q: Where do you see yourself in ten years' time?
A: It is really difficult to imagine where I will be in ten years' time.But I really hope that ten years from now on, I will already be happily married, have a cozy home, a stable, challenging and well-paid job in which I can find great interest. I hope to have already made some contribution in the research area and had some several publications. And also, I hope by that time, I will have been a person who knows how to be grateful for what life has blessed me with.

Q: How did you enjoy your college life?
A : Generally speaking, my college life was busy and colorful. In my spare time, I took an active part in all kinds of voluntary and practice work. In the meantime, I enriched my experience and met new friends sharing similar interests. In addition, I’ve spent quite some time in reading. The works of the great minds are really extraordinary and instructive and through reading I’ve stepped into the unknown but wonderful fields that I’d never thought worthy of my time.
范例2
Q: What impressed you the most at college?
A:I believe the library of my university has impressed me the most. If I want to look for a certain professional book, the library seldom lets me down. The searching system is well developed and finding the book is just a click away. Moreover, the books stored in the library are diverse, covering almost all the subjects. Every time I go to the library, it feels like I’m going on a wonderful journey because I’m convinced that I’ll find some brilliant books there.

Since we are far away from home, we take care of each other like brothers and sisters. Although sometimes we may have different opinions on something, or we may even quarrel with each other, that doesn’t affect our friendship.
