雅思口语过关的方法

雅思考试听说读写四项里,口语考试的准备工作似乎很难着手。因为听读写似乎是最熟悉的部分,而口语的部分常常没有机会练到。

Part 1

在第一部分中,雅思考官会问你几个熟悉的话题,都是我们日常生活中会涉及到的话题,要求你用几句话来简单作答,这一部分即为 Part 1。这一部分所涉及的问题较为简单,难度不是特别大,但仍有同学失分严重,原因回答的太过简洁,而且用到的都是简单的词汇,期间还有一些语法错误,用词错误。其实要是有以上这些问题,在之后的部分也同样会出现,以致整体的口语部分的得分不会很好看。

Part 2

之后会进入 Part 2的部分,在这一部分开始之前,考官会给你一张卡片,卡片上会写有题目,同时考官也会给你纸笔用来做一些笔记。这一部分是根据第一部分的内容来让考生做一个两分钟的陈述,这一部分的难度主要是长度的问题,很多考生不能够在规定时间内答完整。就算是 native speaker在考试中碰到这些题目,也需要花几分钟时间想一想,所以这一部分是必须要准备的。

雅思口语考试总共会涉及五个大类的话题——人物、地点、活动、物品,其他。在这五个大的类别之下再进行细致的划分,在备考时也可以按照这个分类来进行话题的整理。

那么整理好了话题,又该做什么呢?将话题整理好之后就要进行练习了,拿到一个话题,要先将这个问题与自身经历结合起来,找到一些可以和自身经历想关联的点。要知道,雅思考官会见到无数的考生,只有最 specific的答案才是不无聊的答案。先大致把能想到的点罗列出来,一开始可以先用中文罗列。

随着练习的增多,英语水平的提升,就可以用英文的小短句来罗列。罗列出来之后要找到几个可以延伸的点,雅思口语中第二个部分找到 2-3个点展开就好,找 5点每个点只蜻蜓点水讲一句并不是一个好的答案。

这一步即我们所说的“头脑风暴”,那么头脑风暴过后,就要用地道的英文把想到的点用地道的英文陈述出来了。这几部做完之后一个话题的练习并没有结束,之后还要将自己做出来的东西进行打磨。

如何打磨?可以根据官方指南中给出的评分标准进行对照,看看自己是否达到了要求。在将自己给出的表达查找一下,看看英文中到底有没有这种说法。尽量将自己的准备的话题按照这样的步骤练习后,慢慢积累,终有成效。

Part 3

雅思口语考试的第三个部分,有很多同学很头疼。第三个部分的问题较为深刻,平时要刻意关注一些演讲类的视频,往往这类型的视频,说话人都会讲一些有见解的看法和观点。这一部分需要一定的辩证的思维模式,要学会展开一个话题。注意语料的积累,形成自己的表达。

雅思英语口语提高方法

语音方面

美式英语在音韵上是趋于保守的,例如:大多数情况下当代美式英语都有卷舌音【又称翘舌音】,字母r在辅音前也要发音;虽然当代英式英语没有卷舌音,但在17世纪时英国各地全是这样。

以wh开头的词,美式英语读[hw],英式英语则读[w],例如:where[hw /w ]、while[hwail/wail]、white[hwait/wait]等。美式英语把-u-和-ue的长元音发作[u:],而英式英语发成[ju:],例如:due[du:/dju:]、tube[tu:b/tju:b]等。

美式英语和英式英语的读音差异还表现在某些单词的发音上,没有一定的规律可循,例如:ate[eit/et]、been[bin/bi:n]

在许多以-ary,-ory结尾的单词和以-ate结尾的双音节词中,美式英语把重音放在第一音节上,而英式英语则把重音放在第二个音节上。

顺便一提:美国之音【VOA】播音员说的和托福【TOEFL】考的,是典型而标准的美式英语;英国广播公司【BBC】播音员说的和雅思【IELTS】考的,是典型而标准的英式英语。

词汇方面

美式英语和英式英语虽同出一源,但在以后的发展中受到的影响不同就产生了拼写上的不同。

首先,相同的词既出现在美式英语中,也出现在英式英语中,但分别表示完全不同的概念【即同词异义】,例如:billion 【十亿/万亿】、biscuit【软饼/苏打饼干】、football【橄榄球/足球】、mall【购物中心/林荫大道】、overall【工装裤/紧身裤】等。

其次,美式英语和英式英语分别用不同的词来表示同一概念【即同义异词】,例如:baggage/luggage【行李】、can/tin【罐头】、candy/sweets【糖果】、elevator/lift【电梯】、subway/underground【地铁】、truck/lorry【卡車】、welfare /benefit【福利】等。

再次,美式英语和英式英语虽属于同一体系,但其在拼写体系仍略有不同【即拼写差异,但读音不变】,例如:analyze/analyse【分析】、center/centre【中心】、defense/defence【保卫】、dialog/dialogue【对话】、inflection/inflexion【弯曲】、instal/install【安装】、kilogram/kilogramme【公斤】、labor/ labour【劳动】等。

另外让人搭便车,美式英语说“give ride”,英式英语则说“give lift”;至于电话忙音,美式英语说“The line is busy。”,而英式英语则说“The line is engaged。”。

语法方面

美式英语和英式英语使用的是同一语法体系,但在某些情况下,尤其是在表达提供消息的时候,美式英语用一般过去时,而英式英语用现在完成时,例如:He just went home./He has just gone home。【他刚回家了。】 I just have lunch./I have just had lunch。【我刚吃完午餐。】等。在美式英语中“need, dare, used to”都作为实义动词使用,而在英式英语中它们都被当作情态动词使用,例如:She didn't dare to stay in the dark./She dared not stay in the dark。【她不敢呆在黑暗的地方。】 Tom doesn't need to go with them./Tom needn't go with them。【汤姆不需要和他们一起去。】等。

对于某些名词美式英语用复数形式,而英式英语用单数形式,例如:entertainments/entertainment【乐趣】 、sports/sport【运动】、 stands/stand【看台】等。

在某些词组或习语中,美式英语和英式英语的介词用法不同,例如:on the weekend/at the weekend【在周末】、around midnight/about midnight【约在半夜】、on the train/in the train【在火车上】 等。

在某些表示抽象概念的地点名词前,美式英语用定冠词,而英式英语不用,例如:be in the hospital/be in hospital【在医院】、go to the university/go to university【上大学】等;但在某些表示时间的习语中,美式英语不用定冠词,而英式英语要用,例如:all morning/ all the morning【整个上午】、day after tomorrow/the day after tomorrow【后天】等。

那许多同学就会疑问了,既然两者有不少区别,可为何美国人和英国人之间沟通没有问题呢?

虽然美式英语与英式英语在语音、词汇和语法等方面存在着一些差异,但由于它们的相同之处远远大于不同之处,所以不会影响英语表达的规范性;因此,这些差异不会妨碍美英人士彼此交际和交流思想。

雅思考生在备考时最大的任务就是要把多年来学校学的英美混杂英语给区分开来。这可并不是一件容易的事!用心学习英语吧,这才是你拿下雅思口语的关键。

雅思口语Part3回答方法

1、听得懂是关键

雅思口语的评分标准是以下四个:

Fluency and Coherence

Lexical Resources

Grammatical Range and Accuracy

Pronunciation

大家会发现,这里面没有“听得懂”这一项。但其实,对于在考官现场发问的Part 3,这一项是隐含的评分标准。听得懂是有效交流的关键。

很多同学会问,那听不懂怎么办?我们把听不懂分为两种情况:

第一种:考官语速快,如果说慢一点,就能听懂。

如果是这种情况,大家在现场可以说:“Pardon,please?”或者用句子:“Sorry, I didn't catch the question. Could you please repeat it?”当然,如果连续几道题目都出现“Pardon”,那我们的交流状态就不是很理想了。

第二种:存在生词。

那这种情况下,可能考官重复3遍也没有用,因为词汇制约了你对于题目的理解。

如果是这种情况,建议大家使用一个词:“Paraphrase”,也就是说,让考官换一种方式问问题,那么正常情况下,他会用一种稍微简单一点的方式解释一下。

总之,听得懂是答得出的关键,还是希望大家在第一时间听懂问题并且做出回应。实在遇到特别长难的题目,我们可以采用抓关键词的方法。比方说这个问题

“Who do you think should pay for the services that are available to the people in a community?

Should it be the government or individual people?”

很多同学都觉得没有生词,但听完之后觉得没记住。如果我们可以抓住关键词“pay, service, community, government, individual”, 那理解起来就事半功倍了。

2、讲够5-8句话

为什么会有答题长度的要求呢?因为Part 3的题目是对于Social life, 也就是社会生活

等话题的讨论,核心词是“Discussion”,也就是说这一部分需要我们对于“年轻人与老人相处”、“学校教育”、“互联网时代”等等话题用英文进行探讨,考察我们结合社会生活实际,分析和讨论问题,论证观点的能力,所以,如果只答出两三句话,未免显得不充分和单薄。

3、有一定广度

广度其实就是分类讨论的能力,在分析问题的时候,希望大家尽量多想到几种情况,会根据主体或者正反面分类,不要仅仅停留在一个侧面,或者一个层面的分析。

举一个非常简单的例子:“What sports do Chinese people like?”

那这种情况下大家不能说“Football”或者“Basketball”这样一概而论。因为不同的年龄和性别,对于运动的选择可能不一样。那我们可以按照年龄段分类,比如说,可以分成children, teenagers, working people, the elderly. 或者我们也可以分性别,分成men and women再去讨论。

来试试这道题“Why do many people like going to concerts?

一个Sample Answer:

“I suppose that people go to concert for different reasons. Some people want to experience good music first-hand. They think the music in live concerts is much better than recorded music. Others want to get closer to the musicians and singers they are crazy about. They want to see their idols and interact with them in person. There are also people who go to rock concerts just to relax because they always suffer from a heavy workload. The atmosphere in live concerts helps them unwind because screaming out loud with other fans could help them release their pressure.”

4、有一定深度

这一项给冲7分以上的同学参考,如果大家的目标分数是6.5,那么达到以上的3点就可以。

深度就是在对于问题进行分类以后,尽可能往更深的社会层面去分析一下。剑桥官方给出的8分口语实例里面有一段就是考官在问一个德国考生,德国人的休闲方式。这个德国的考生不仅仅把类别分成男人和女人,还说出了男人喜欢踢足球是因为德国经济的“recession”,人们“suffer from pressure”, 踢球是一种很好的释放压力的方式。

最后再为大家分享两个Part 3部分的高分回答范例供大家参考!

高分回答范例

Is crime a problem in your country?

Well, I guess my answer would be determined by different conditions.

I mean, in big cities, the crime rate is relatively high. I guess this is probably because there’s just too much temptation in big cities and many people cannot control themselves.

But in the countryside, seldom can you witness a crime. The reason may have something to do with the fact that in the countryside, people’s mind is not that complicated. Most of them are satisfied with the way they are living and they don’t want too much.

Do many people work on farms in your country?

Well, in the past, the number of farmers in China was quite large. Decades ago, not so many people could get the opportunity to go to school. Consequently, most of them ended up working as a farmer.

However, nowadays fewer and fewer people choose to work on farms. The explanation for this is that the money a farmer earns is no longer enough to cover the whole family’s needs. As a consequence, lots of people decide to find a job in the city where they can get a better payment

雅思口语描述类型问题的方法

1、开片短语

Well actually there is quite a wide range of sports in my hometown.

Of course, you know there is a fairly broad range of TV programmes in my local area.

Sure, obviously there is quite a wide range of transportation in my hometown.

2、表达“类型”时,可用

There is quite a variety of sportsin my country.

There is quite a wide range of transportation in my hometown.

There is quite a diverse mixture of restaurants in my hometown.

There is a fairly broad range of TV programmes in my local area.

There is quite a diversity of shop which can be found in my hometown.

3、列举时,表达“最……”的一类时,可用

But I guess the most popular would probably be basketball.

However, I suppose the most common would possibly be hot-pot restaurants.

Though I think the most influential would potentially be table tennis.

Yet I imagine the most convenient may be taxi.

Still, I suspect that the most common could perhaps be bus.

4、进一步添加细节时

The thing with basketball is that it is a challenging physical-contact sport.

I assume buses are so common because they are very cheap.

The point want to add about taxis is that they are the most convenient kind of transportation.

And the explanation for this could be that we have so many table tennis medal-winners in our country.

And the basis for this is that it is a time-consuming hobby.

5、介绍第二种类型时

Besides/In addition to basketball,a second popular sport in my town is billiards.

As well as buses, taxis are also verypopular in my town.

Another kind of hobby would be calligraphy.

Another form of transportation worth mentioning is the subway.

A second variety of sports would be something like football.

A subsequent category would be something like a McDonald's.

6、进一步描述第二类事物的特征

The main characteristic of billiards is that it is a quiet sport.

The unique aspect of a taxi is that it can take you to your destination quickly.

One exceptional aspect of fast-food restaurants is that they are time-saving.

7、结束时可提及的另外一些类型

And of course there's the usual things like tennis and back horse-riding, although they are not as common as the two I mentioned above.

And obviously you can also find things like trains and motorcycles, although they are not as common as the two I mentioned above.

Likewise, as might be expected, there are things like skating and skiing, although they are not as popular as two Imentioned above.

And naturally, there are things like collecting stamps, hiking and martial arts, although they are notas popular as the two I mentioned above.
