雅思口语需注意具体细节

2010-06-02来源:和谐英语

好多烤鸭们一直对雅思口语抱着一种误解,以为好的英语口语就是好的中文口语翻译,所以在口语课堂上,经常听到有同学在很纠结地讲着“形而上”的英文——很抽象,很哲学。讲到最后把自己和听众们都搞得云山雾罩,不明白为什么自己的中文呱呱叫,换了英文就把老外给讲得眉头紧锁。事实上,考官欣赏的英文是“形而下”——很具体,很生活才对。也就是说,跟雅思考官展示“交流能力”,靠的不是不着边际的高谈阔论,而是要有实实在在的内容,也就是必不可少的small details(具体细节)。接下来,专家就将介绍一下如何在考试的三个part中使用small details把问题答得通透明白。

Part 1:Introduction & Interview

【常见真题】

Do you like sports?

Do you like art?

Do you like cooking?

Do you like to watch TV?

【低分答案】

Yes,l do.

【题目分析】

很多同学在给出这样的答案时,都抱着一种想法:在part1考官只是在问我问题。所以回答时有点像接受审问,越少说越好。但是考官真正的目的却是在邀请考生主动提供信息,以作为检测考生英语交流能力的参考,也就是说回答的越少展示的机会就越少,分数自然就低。

所以建议考生在回答part1的问题时应“主动”给出以下的信息:

what type of sport or art or music or TV programs you like

when you do something

how long you have liked it

how often you do something

who you do it with

why you like it

……

【高分答案】

Yes,I do.

(what type) I’m really into basketball.

(when & how long) I’ve been playing it for many years since I was in middle school,

(who & how often) and I enjoy playing it with my friends at weekends.

(why) In fact, It’s always the best way for me to relax after a whole week’s studying…

【相关范例】

Where do you come from?

I’m from a small village in the mountains – (where) a long way from the capital city of my country.

How do you normally get to college in the morning?

I take the train to Central Station and then I catch the express bus – (how long) it takes about an hour altogether.

Do you have any brothers or sisters?

No – I’m the only child. (who) I have ten cousins that I grew up with, so I didn’t feel lonely.
