2.雅思口語(yǔ)應(yīng)該避免的壞習(xí)慣
1、 不要無(wú)的放矢
考生應(yīng)確認(rèn)自己的回答能夠滿(mǎn)足考官的提問(wèn)要求,否則考官會(huì)認(rèn)為考生沒(méi)有聽(tīng)懂他的問(wèn)題。
2、 不要言語(yǔ)啰嗦
考生對(duì)于自己了解的問(wèn)題可以盡量闡述的詳細(xì)一些,但不要啰嗦,否則會(huì)引起考官的反感。
3、 不要忽略練習(xí)
考生在考試前要多練習(xí)以此提高自信心。
4、 不要打斷談話(huà)
考生不要輕易終止自己的談話(huà)也不要隨便打斷考官的談話(huà)。
5、 不要要求過(guò)高
考生要正確評(píng)估自己的實(shí)力,考生的得分目標(biāo)不可脫離實(shí)際而定的太高,避免增大壓力。
6、 不要畏懼變化
在考試中難免會(huì)遇到一些突如其來(lái)的變化,此時(shí)考生應(yīng)該鎮(zhèn)定自若,相信自己。
7、 不要暗示考官
考生千萬(wàn)不可對(duì)考官說(shuō)必須要得……分才……樣,因?yàn)榭荚嚨匿浺羰且?jīng)過(guò)復(fù)審的。
8、 避免使用以下詞語(yǔ)
(1) challening,interesting等這些詞語(yǔ)往往被考官是為俗不可耐,考生應(yīng)變換詞語(yǔ)進(jìn)行細(xì)節(jié)描述。
(2) 不可使用Do you agree? 或Do you think so?這類(lèi)帶有討論成分的句子反問(wèn)考官的觀點(diǎn)。
9、 不要畏懼出錯(cuò)和擔(dān)心聽(tīng)不懂
由于考試緊張,考生難免會(huì)有聽(tīng)不懂的情況。當(dāng)有聽(tīng)不明白的問(wèn)題時(shí),考生可以要求考官重復(fù)問(wèn)題,但考官只能重復(fù)一次。
3.雅思口語(yǔ)備考指南
雅思口語(yǔ)考試需要進(jìn)行大量的練習(xí),并在考試前做好一切準(zhǔn)備。
比如:關(guān)于你自己、你的國(guó)家、你的思想和觀點(diǎn)等話(huà)題都可以用來(lái)練習(xí)口語(yǔ)。這會(huì)使你的口語(yǔ)表達(dá)更加自然并為你為在口語(yǔ)測(cè)試中遇到的任何突如其來(lái)的話(huà)題做好準(zhǔn)備。
不管有無(wú)錯(cuò)誤,如果你不進(jìn)行大量口語(yǔ)練習(xí),你就不會(huì)在口語(yǔ)水平上取得真正的進(jìn)步。 你練習(xí)得越多,口語(yǔ)就會(huì)變得越容易。 如果你盡可能多地練習(xí)口語(yǔ),你的口語(yǔ)水平很快就會(huì)得到迅速提高。
理想的情況是與母語(yǔ)為英語(yǔ)的人練習(xí)口語(yǔ),這樣他們就會(huì)給你提一些建議,比如:如何擴(kuò)大詞匯量、如何學(xué)習(xí)語(yǔ)法,如何進(jìn)行發(fā)音等等。如果那個(gè)人對(duì)雅思口語(yǔ)測(cè)試非常了解,將會(huì)對(duì)你有很大幫助。
如果你不能與母語(yǔ)為英語(yǔ)的人的談話(huà)也不必?fù)?dān)心。 你也可以自己獨(dú)自練習(xí)口語(yǔ)。 雖然獨(dú)自練習(xí)口語(yǔ)的時(shí)候沒(méi)有人回應(yīng)你的談話(huà),但是只要開(kāi)口練習(xí),你就能有機(jī)會(huì)去嘗試用不同的方式來(lái)說(shuō)話(huà),而這也將增強(qiáng)你的信心。同時(shí)這也會(huì)彌補(bǔ)你在詞匯量和語(yǔ)法上的缺點(diǎn),讓你以這種集中的方式學(xué)習(xí)新的單詞和語(yǔ)法結(jié)構(gòu)。
雅思口語(yǔ)話(huà)題和材料的積累:
描述自己所見(jiàn)到的周?chē)氖挛?在旅途中所看到的、經(jīng)歷的事情。
早晨的時(shí)候可以想象接下來(lái)的一天將要發(fā)生的事情,晚上的時(shí)候再回顧今天發(fā)生的事情。
當(dāng)你逛超市時(shí),告訴自己你需要什么,為什么需要。
閱讀一篇關(guān)于任何話(huà)題報(bào)紙文章,并給出簡(jiǎn)短的摘要。
4.雅思口語(yǔ)發(fā)音的技巧
發(fā)音是發(fā)出正確的英文讀音。 當(dāng)然,應(yīng)該首先確保你的語(yǔ)調(diào)和節(jié)奏是正確的,不僅僅是各自單獨(dú)的發(fā)音,還有他們?cè)谝黄饡r(shí)的發(fā)音。
改進(jìn)發(fā)音最重要的方法就是練習(xí)聽(tīng)力。 通常,語(yǔ)言學(xué)習(xí)者在領(lǐng)會(huì)到各個(gè)發(fā)音的區(qū)別之前,都想嘗試發(fā)出正確的讀音。
如何能夠聽(tīng)出這些發(fā)音的區(qū)別呢?一種方法就是對(duì)廣播或電視節(jié)目(如:新聞)錄音30秒。 然后自己重述,以此來(lái)對(duì)比自己的發(fā)音與廣播電視節(jié)目里發(fā)音的不同。
要連續(xù)不斷地練習(xí),這是一個(gè)緩慢的過(guò)程,在你可以正確地發(fā)音之前,可能會(huì)需要重復(fù)多次很困難的發(fā)音。
當(dāng)你練習(xí)發(fā)音時(shí),學(xué)習(xí)如何連讀尤其困難。 當(dāng)一個(gè)單詞是以輔音結(jié)束而下一個(gè)單詞是以元音開(kāi)始的時(shí)候,這時(shí)兩個(gè)單詞可以連讀。 在“jumps over”中,第一個(gè)單詞的結(jié)尾輔音應(yīng)與下一個(gè)單詞的元音連讀。
當(dāng)聽(tīng)英語(yǔ)時(shí),單詞連讀可能會(huì)產(chǎn)生一個(gè)很棘手的問(wèn)題。一個(gè)基本的聽(tīng)力技能就是能夠聽(tīng)出單詞,并且能夠理解單詞發(fā)音在哪里開(kāi)始和結(jié)束。英文連讀時(shí)發(fā)音都連在一塊兒,這樣聽(tīng)力的難度就會(huì)加大。
5.雅思口語(yǔ)之A Leader話(huà)題
You should say:
who this person is
(how he or she became a leader)
what this person did (has done) that you admire
how you know this person or know about this person
and explain how ( = why) this leader's qualities impressed you.
范文:
Times need heroes, and heroes stand out. Franklin Roosevelt is just a hero of the times. Well known for his unprecedented 13 years as the President of U. S. , he is regarded as a savior of America. However, it is not his brilliant achievements that attract me. What I really admire are some qualities shining in his whole life such as fortitude, courage and also his amiability.
His early time, I mean before his forties, was smooth. He was born rich and had a happy marriage. After graduating from Harvard, he served in the Navy. At that time, he had already shown his remarkable leadership and since his uncle was a President, he would surely enter the political arena. But everything changed when he was 39. Healthy and strong as he was, he was attacked by polio after swimming, which caused the life long deformity in his legs. It was extremely hard for this ambitious man to face the misfortune. He was, of course, in a bad mood and wanted to give up all his dreams at first. Then, after careful thinking, he finally decided to bestir himself. He was not a man easy to surrender. Again he took part in political activities and, at the same time, practiced standing up and then walking with a stick. Eventually this brave man won the battle against fate. He became the only disabled President in American history and unprecedentedly served four terms. All should be attributed to his fortitude.
"The only thing we fear is fear itself." This famous saying now has spread all over the world and encouraged lots of people. Roosevelt first said it, and as a great leader, he made all his people believe it. He practiced what he preached for he was surely a courageous person challenging the tradition. He formulated new policies to help his nation out of the Depression. He declared war against Fascists though most of the Congressmen opposed him at that time. All proved that he was right for his courage was not rash but based on careful thinking. "A leader is one who dares to dream, and then, dares to achieve."
He was great, but not great in appearance. He looked like a kind grandpa at the first sight. He initiated the fireside chat to express his ideas and explain his policies in a relaxed atmosphere on radio. He always smiled sincerely when speaking and listening. These didn't lower his prestige but made him amiable and welcome.
He is surely not a perfect man no one can be perfect. Every age has its hero in the forefront, just like Franklin Roosevelt, a man I admire.
