1.雅思口語(yǔ)Part3的備考原則
1、使用連接詞,保證邏輯性
區(qū)分英語(yǔ)說(shuō)寫(xiě)好壞的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)之一就是連接詞的使用,一個(gè)英語(yǔ)學(xué)習(xí)者會(huì)不會(huì)使用連接詞,將直接決定其英語(yǔ)的地道程度和邏輯性,寫(xiě)作中如此,口語(yǔ)中更是這樣。不少學(xué)生不習(xí)慣使用邏輯詞,是因?yàn)樵跐h語(yǔ)中,有時(shí)并不需要使用太多的邏輯詞。例如,漢語(yǔ)中我們常說(shuō)“你去,我就去!钡⒄Z(yǔ)中一般不說(shuō)“Yougo, I go.”而是要加入適當(dāng)?shù)募僭O(shè)連接詞,說(shuō)成“If you go, then I willgo.”,顯然更符合英語(yǔ)的表達(dá)習(xí)慣?梢(jiàn),要想提高雅思口語(yǔ)Part3的論證性,就要從轉(zhuǎn)變漢語(yǔ)中不常使用連接詞這一語(yǔ)言習(xí)慣做起?偨Y(jié)認(rèn)為,英語(yǔ)中的連接詞可分為兩大類(lèi):句子內(nèi)部連接詞和句群之間連接詞。
(1)句子內(nèi)部連接詞
1)類(lèi)比和對(duì)比:although, though, even though, while, whereas
2)原因和結(jié)果:since, so that, because, as
3)時(shí)間:after, when, until, whenever, before
4)可能性:if, as if, whether, unless
5)地點(diǎn):wherever, where
6)方式:how
(2)句群之間連接詞
1)邏輯順序:firstly, secondly, thirdly, next, last, finally, in addition,furthermore, also, at present
2)重要性先后:most/more importantly, most significantly, above all, primarily, itis essential
3)類(lèi)比和對(duì)比:similarly, likewise, also, however, on the other hand, on thecontrary, in comparison, in contrast
4)原因和結(jié)果:the cause of, the reason for, as a result, as a consequence,therefore, thus, consequently, hence
5)強(qiáng)調(diào):undoubtedly, indeed, obviously, generally, admittedly, in fact, inparticular, especially, clearly, importantly
6)遞進(jìn):and, in addition, additionally, furthermore, also, too, as well as
7)舉例:for example, for instance, that is, such as, including, namely
2 、發(fā)音到位,保證清晰性
發(fā)音,不僅是雅思口語(yǔ)的重要評(píng)分標(biāo)準(zhǔn)之一,更是保證英語(yǔ)口語(yǔ)清晰性的關(guān)鍵因素。這里要注意的是,發(fā)音和口音不同,口音問(wèn)題主要是由于本國(guó)母語(yǔ)或地方方言的影響而造成的語(yǔ)言習(xí)慣,并不影響雅思成績(jī)和正常的口語(yǔ)交流。但發(fā)建議考生們需要掌握英語(yǔ)中的六大發(fā)音原則:
(1)長(zhǎng)元音盡量拉長(zhǎng) 短元音急促有力
發(fā)長(zhǎng)元音時(shí),長(zhǎng)度要比短元音長(zhǎng)一拍,比如以下例句中的fool, please, feel, free, call。短元音則需急促有力,如例句中的is,full, busy。
1)I think Tom is a fool.
2)My full name is Li Ming.
3)Please feel free to call me, I am not busy.
(2)雙元音飽滿(mǎn)到位
發(fā)好雙元音,口形非常重要。盡量用你的口形來(lái)夸張發(fā)音,爭(zhēng)取在較短的時(shí)間內(nèi)用飽滿(mǎn)、到位的口形把雙元音讀完,如以下例句中的hate, late,there, smoke, without, fire, take, break。
1)I hate being late for work!
2)There is no smoke without fire.
3)Let’s take a break.
(3)咬舌頭
分析發(fā)現(xiàn),有不少學(xué)生發(fā)[θ]和[e]時(shí),沒(méi)有注意到這個(gè)原則,養(yǎng)成了不好的發(fā)音習(xí)慣,希望在平時(shí)的訓(xùn)練中多加練習(xí),特別是以下例句中的thirty,three, thousand, this, than, that, thank等詞。
1)Thirty-three thousand three hundred and thirty-three.
2)This is better than that.
3)Thanks a lot.
(4)卷舌頭
與發(fā)[r]音不同,發(fā)[l]音時(shí)舌頭應(yīng)輕觸上齒和齒齦的交界處。以下例句中的right, wrong, crazy,spirit包含了[r]音;tell, likely, Lucy, will, library, learn, English包含了[l]音。
1)I can tell right from wrong.
2)It’s not likely that Lucy will be at the library.
3)He has a crazy spirit in learning English.
(5)咬嘴唇
發(fā)[f]音時(shí),上齒應(yīng)輕觸下唇,氣流從口中自然流出,如以下例句中的life,have等詞;發(fā)[v]音時(shí),上齒同樣輕觸下唇,但稍微緊一些,使氣流受到阻礙,產(chǎn)生濁化的效果,如以下例句中的give, advice, very, arrive,five等詞。
1)Can you give me some advice?
2)He lives a very good life.
3)You have to arrive before five.
(6)閉嘴巴
發(fā)[m]音時(shí),雙唇緊閉,氣流從鼻腔中自然流出。在練習(xí)中,要特別注意以下例句中employee, time, swim, system,complicated的[m]音。
1)My employees make me happy most of the time.
2)Melinda might be able to swim one more mile.
3)The system is more complicated than I thought.
3 、注意語(yǔ)法,保證準(zhǔn)確性
語(yǔ)法不是萬(wàn)能的,但沒(méi)有語(yǔ)法又是萬(wàn)萬(wàn)不能的。雅思口語(yǔ)雖然不需要像寫(xiě)作那樣特別重視語(yǔ)法的準(zhǔn)確性,但是掌握并熟練運(yùn)用一些基本的語(yǔ)法,能保證我們?cè)诨卮餚art3問(wèn)題時(shí)的準(zhǔn)確性。以下是回答雅思口語(yǔ)Part3問(wèn)題時(shí)需要特別注意的語(yǔ)法知識(shí)點(diǎn):
時(shí)態(tài):一般現(xiàn)在時(shí)、一般過(guò)去時(shí)、一般將來(lái)時(shí)、現(xiàn)在進(jìn)行時(shí)、過(guò)去進(jìn)行時(shí)、將來(lái)進(jìn)行時(shí)、完成進(jìn)行時(shí)、現(xiàn)在完成時(shí)、過(guò)去完成時(shí)、將來(lái)完成時(shí)、完成進(jìn)行時(shí)。
2.雅思口語(yǔ)低分原因
1. 套用固定結(jié)構(gòu)
現(xiàn)在很多考官都已經(jīng)知道考生已經(jīng)準(zhǔn)備好了第二部分,所以考官會(huì)更多的把時(shí)間集中的放在第三部分,問(wèn)的題目越來(lái)越難來(lái)判斷考生的真實(shí)水平。在第三部分的回答時(shí),建議考生套用一定的結(jié)構(gòu):第一句話,直接回答問(wèn)題。很多考生喜歡繞來(lái)繞去,如果這樣的話,考官會(huì)認(rèn)為考生不會(huì)回答這道問(wèn)題,而是在拐彎抹角。第二句話,考生可以套用therebe句型,可能是原因,或者情況。然后在第三,第四句話將具體的兩個(gè)原因或情況進(jìn)行詳細(xì)闡述;卮鸬淖詈罂忌呀(jīng)引用到自身的經(jīng)歷來(lái)回答。
2. 模仿標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案
在最近一段時(shí)間里,已經(jīng)很少有新題出現(xiàn)。所以大多數(shù)考生會(huì)選擇去準(zhǔn)備考過(guò)的題目。我們可以看到,大多數(shù)考生在準(zhǔn)備的時(shí)候,都會(huì)選擇去找一本雅思口語(yǔ)的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案書(shū),然后把這些答案背下來(lái)。其實(shí),如果這樣的話,分?jǐn)?shù)在大多數(shù)情況下反而會(huì)更低。這主要是因?yàn)楹芏嗟臉?biāo)準(zhǔn)答案的用詞比較難。所以,如果考生的英語(yǔ)發(fā)音,英語(yǔ)語(yǔ)言能力組織的不好,反而達(dá)不到預(yù)期的效果。
3. 使用難的單詞
很多時(shí)候,我發(fā)現(xiàn)很多考生在說(shuō)話的時(shí)候都會(huì)說(shuō)一句或甚至幾個(gè)單詞的時(shí)候就卡住了。當(dāng)問(wèn)到是什么原因的時(shí)候,很多考生會(huì)說(shuō)不會(huì)用英文表達(dá),或者是某個(gè)單詞不會(huì)說(shuō)。其實(shí),在真正的英語(yǔ)交流中,我們會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)很多的外教講話時(shí)英語(yǔ)的用詞是非常簡(jiǎn)單,這就是英語(yǔ)交流的精華。在真正的日常交流中,外國(guó)人并不會(huì)去追求一些難的單詞,而更多的是用最簡(jiǎn)單的詞匯和語(yǔ)法結(jié)構(gòu)將自己的意思表達(dá)出來(lái)。所以,名 師建議考生把自己想要表達(dá)的意思表述出來(lái)即可,不必去追求什么華麗的高難度語(yǔ)句。即使是在第三部分,題目非常的難,考生也可以很好的回答其中80%的題目。
