【北京雅思】北京朗阁雅思口语Part 2口若悬河的秘诀

雅思口语Part 2口若悬河的秘诀

朗阁海外考试研究中心

相信大部分烤鸭们都经历过在口语Part2哑口无言大脑一片空白的恐怖状态。一边感觉浪费时间觉得要多说些什么,一边考官像块石头一样死死的盯着自己,顿时觉得六神无主、张口结舌,所以就有了between a rock and a hard place(左右为难)。然而,如果同学们按照朗阁专家给大家的秘籍去练习,那么保证你灵感不断、口若悬河。

总的来讲,扩充Speech有两种方法,下面我们来逐一讲解。

一、 在客观问题后面追述原因

复习过雅思的同学都熟悉第二部分的题目,看得多的同学自己都可以编题目。其实总的来说,口语的题目就是由what、when、who、where、why和how/how often组成,在朗阁,我们叫5W1H原则。很多同学一看题目,觉得除了why的问题可以回答出一些东西,剩下的问题回答不超过3句话,更有甚者,有的学生一句话就概括了3个问题。这就是为什么学生发现口语中的2分钟那么煎熬的原因了。雅思的评分标准Fluency里就有一项要求叫做: students should be able to speak at length.也就是说学生在考官提出问题后要自己能够给出完整的答案,有理有据,而并非简单的yes or no就可以解决的。那么我们怎么才能做到滔滔不绝呢?最简单的方法就是在when、who、where、how often之类的客观问题后面问自己一个why。我们下面通过例子来详述。

Describe another language (in addition to English and your own language) that you would learn, if you wanted.

You should say,

The name of this language

How you would learn it

What equipment or facilities you would need to study this language 1

And explain why you would choose to study this language.

我们就问题逐个解答。首先你想学的语言是什么,你可以任意选,法语、西班牙语、俄语等等。我们就以法语来举例。那如果只是单单的说the language I would like to learn is French这样又是一句话就完了。我们还可以介绍法语的一些情况啊,比如it is said that French is considered as the most romantic language in the world。这样不但延长了时间,而且很具体。当然同学们还可以交代法语是联合国会议的重要语言等等信息。但此处谨记不要着急说为什么要学法语,因为后面有why, 可以慢慢解释,要不然整篇布局会乱。

我们看第二个问题how。学任何语言都是相通的,你是怎么学英语的,把这些方法说出来就可以了。比如你来朗阁学雅思,你就可以说joining a training session is the most effective way to pick up a new language。当然还没完,这里就可以加上理由。比如:(接上句)since the professional teachers will introduce you the right techniques and tips to master it。当然学语言不止一种方法,你还可以接着列举另外的方式。有的学生会提到通过交法国朋友来学习,那么一定要记得加上理由,比如:I can practice my spoken French with some local friends. This is mainly because they can point out my mistakes and show me the right usage of the slang or idiom that Chinese teachers rarely use.

接下来第三个问题,equipment or facilities。同学们首先就想到了电脑。In terms of the facilities, computer plays a significant role in the process of language studying.还是记得加原因——we can download a large quantity of references which are definitely useful to our studies。当然你还可以说看电影、报纸之类的都行。如果还有其他的比如mp3、mp4都可以接着说的。无论你选择什么,作者还是要不厌其烦地提醒一句,记得加原因拓展你的speech。

这种方法是最实惠而且是最符合评分标准的。说到这里,平常练习总是没有话说的同学可以试试我们的例题。除了why不回答之外,相信你已经神奇地能够说到至少一分钟了。那么我们的另外一个秘籍呢?

二、 不惜一切代价延长连接词或者连接句

雅思评分标准里有一项叫coherence——连贯性、一致性。同学们的口语中的连贯性一定是要靠连接词或者连接句来完成的。比如你最熟悉的已经用烂的and also。有的学生更可怜巴巴的只会用一个and。我们延长一些连接词的好处有两个,第一它们会让你的答案的逻辑性非常明显,让考官很容易抓住你的观点;第二在你没有特别多话说的情况下kill time。我们还拿上面的题目来作为例子。

Why would you want to learn this language.学生会有N个理由。一般考试建议学生说两个即可。比如你想去法国旅游,会法语能够让你的旅程更愉快;或者会法语能让你找到好工作等等,此处仅以此举例。那么首先陈述理由开门见山。As for me, I would want to I’ve always dreamed of going to France for a visit. The ability of speaking the language could make my journey more enjoyable. being able to speak French would probably increase my chance of getting a job.

从范文划线部分可以看出,其实它是延长了同学们的口头禅firstly, secondly。划线部分既清楚明了地告诉了考官思路,同时又减少了说实际内容的时间。我们何乐而不为呢?这些连接句希望学生可以准备一两套,要做到能够信手拈来,这样才是真正的雅思口语的备考。

有了朗阁专家亲自传授的两个秘籍,相信考生们终于可以摆脱哑口无言的苦海了。你是不是迫不及待要语不惊考官死不休了呢?

第二篇:20xx年雅思口语Part1难题解析及口语范文(20xx年北京翻译学院)

20xx年雅思[微博]考试已经过去大半,在上半年的雅思口语考试中,口语Part1部分添加的新题数量很少(比如地图题),但也问懵了很多备考雅思的学生。不过,最让同学们头疼的还是那些高频出现的偏题和难题。根据笔者20xx年上半年的对雅思口语机经和考生询问的统计,总结出20xx年上半年Part 1中出现的最高频的8个令大多考生感到无从下手和难以回答的问题,并提供了答题思路和口语范文,希望能够对下半年备战雅思的考生有所帮助。

一. 地图题 Maps

1. Do you ever use a map?

答题思路: Part1口语话题通常以Do you ? 开始发问,此类题目应该注意频率副词的使用,比如表达“经常做?”,可用 ‘be always doing’ 来强调频率。

精品答案:Yeah I do. I am always using maps on mobile phone when I’m travelling somewhere that I’m not familiar with. As I have a bad sense of direction, I find it most helpful。

2. When do you use a map?

答题思路:首先正面回答你在何时会使用Maps,继而补充一下使用Maps的好处。 精品答案: Umm?. I use maps when I travel to unfamiliar cities or countries, so I would never be afraid of being lost. Maps give me a better understanding of unfamiliar places, such as the position of restaurants and hotels。

3. Who taught you to use a map?

答题思路:通常地图的使用都是可以自学使用,当然你也可以说在使用一些专业地图时是由老师教会使用的,例如‘Maps in ancient times(古代地图)’。

精品答案:Actually, I figured it out for myself. You know, I’ve never had a problem in understanding them because they tend to be self-explanatory (不言自明的)。

4. Do you prefer to use electronic maps or those made of paper?

答题思路:这个问题牵扯到两种地图的对比使用,此题考生可以先说明自己更倾向于哪类地图的使用,进而 ‘解释+举例’说明为什么更喜欢使用电子或者纸质地图。

精品答案:I generally prefer to use electronic ones, because they basically have more functions. For example, if you’re not sure how to get somewhere, you can type the name of the place and then search for it. In addition, electronic maps can highlight the best route and detailed timings for each part of the journey。

5. Have you ever asked others for directions?

答题思路:在直面回答这个问题后,一定要加上自己的解释,说明自己问路或者自己寻路的原因。

精品答案:Sure I have. When I travel to an unfamiliar place, I always ask people for help. Actually, it both saves a lot of time wandering around the same place and avoids being lost as well。

二。迟到题 Being Late

1. How do you feel when you are late?

答题思路: 迟到总是会给对方留下非常不好的印象,如果自己迟到了,应该感到愧疚(guilty),并且向对方道歉(make an apology)。

精品答案:Well, I would feel guilty if I am late, because being late wastes others’ time and leaves a bad impression. When I am late I will definitely apologize to my friends。

2. How do you feel about those guys who are always late?

答题思路:西方国家的人最忌讳别人迟到,这会让人觉得你不靠谱(not reliable)。当然,如果是偶尔迟到,或在不可抗力条件下的迟到,还是可以谅解的(understandable) 精品答案:Well, being late for once or twice is quite understandable, but if one gets late all the time, he or she would leave me an impression that they are not reliable and trustworthy。

3. What are normally the main reasons for being late?

答题思路:迟到的原因除了自己有拖延症(procrastination),还有一些不可抗力的因素,比如交通,恶劣环境或者其他紧急的事件。

精品答案: Well, it could be anything, such as punctured tires (爆胎), diversions of traffic(交通变道), sudden descent of fog(突起大雾), or other emergencies coming up. Nevertheless, if you can start off earlier, you would avoid being late。

三. 字典题 Dictionary

1. Do you often use the dictionary?

答题思路:字典并非只有遇到自己不认识的字或词时才去使用,平时多去浏览(browse)字典,也可以让自己获得很多知识。

精品答案:I often refer to(查阅) a dictionary for some new words. Besides, browsing (or going through)(浏览) the dictionary can enlarge my vocabulary and enrich my knowledge。

2. Are dictionaries important?

答题思路:这个问题主要是从字典的功能谈起,类似于第一个问题的补充说明,可以从查单词和增长知识两个方面谈。

精品答案:Of course. Dictionary is necessary for students to study a new language, especially when they are unsure of the word spelling or meaning. In addition, going through dictionary can help us obtain more information about the world。

3. Which do you prefer,book dictionary or electronic dictionary?

答题思路:对比电子词典和纸质词典,回答方式如同字典题中电子地图和纸质地图的对比。

精品答案:I am fond of using electronic dictionary, because it is convenient for me to look up a new word. Moreover, the number of words in electronic dictionary is many times larger than that of book dictionary。

四. 噪音题 Noise

1. What kinds of sound do you dislike?

答题思路:此题在直接回答出厌恶的噪音种类后,可以紧接着跟上一到两句厌恶的原因,比如让自己无法专心学习或者工作,无法正常入眠等等。

精品答案:Definitely! Firstly I really can't stand the sound of snoring, which drives mad and keeps me asleep at night. Well, the next one would be the sound of cars blaring, mainly because I hear it all the time where I live. It’s quite irritating, especially when I'm trying to focusing on something。

2. Where do you find most noisy in your city?

答题思路:在答出自己感觉最吵闹的地方后,可以接一个以‘where’引导的定语从句,进一步说明这个地方的噪音情况。

精品答案:In the city of XX, the noisy places are on XX road / street, where all kinds of vehicles thunder through the road and car alarms constantly scream at us。

3. How do noises or sound affect your life like study or work?

答题思路: 这道题着重表达噪音的影响,同学们应该注意一些消极形容词的使用,类似于‘upset’,‘distracted’, ‘anxious’,同时也要加上自己的个人感受。

精品答案:Well, too much noise can reduce my working efficiency and distract my attention. I would feel upset and anxious when I hear noise around, especially when I am doing homework or readings。

4. Do you think there will be more noise or less noise in the future?

答题思路:当问题描述对将来的预测和期望时,同学们应该注意将来时态的运用,也可以和过去进行对比,以推测将来。

精品答案:Well, I guess it will probably get noisier, basically because the traffic problem is getting more serious, and the cities have got far more noise than what it was like 10 or 15 years ago. I guess this trend is likely to continue in the future。

五. 耐心题 Patience

1. Do you have patience?

答题思路: 耐心是一种美德(Patience is a virtue),在很多重要场合都可以体现出一个人的素质和修养。

精品答案:Yes, patience is a virtue. I think being patient can reflect my self-culture and quality, especially on some important occasions。.

2. Have you ever lost your patience?

答题思路: 最好能够举出一个简短的失去耐心的事例。比如等餐时排长队(stand in a long queue),等人但对方却长时间不出现(show up)。

精品答案:Oh, let me see. Once I was waiting for one of my friends to go to the cinema, I waited and waited for nearly one hour but he didn’t show up. What is worse, his telephone was out of order. At that time, I lost my patience。

3. How could people be more patient?

答题思路: 耐心或许是从小具备的(be brought to be patient),但大多是可以训练的,比如通过转移注意力的方式(shift one’s attention)。

精品答案:I believe that patience can be trained. For example, when you waited for someone for a long time, you can listen to music in order to shift your attention。

4. What is the importance of being patient?

答题思路: 描述某种性格或者品质的重要性时,同学们要找到适当的描述重要性的替换词,比如‘essential’,‘vital’,‘significant’等。

精品答案:Definitely. It is one of the essential qualities that a successful person requires. When you are in a hurry, you may miss something important and then get away from your goals。

六. 专注题 Concentration

1. What is the importance of concentration?

答题思路: 专心致力于一件事情,可以提高工作效率,也可以节约很多时间。容易分心的人(be easily distracted)是干不成什么事情的。

精品答案:Focusing on one thing enables people to work efficiently and effectively. What’s more, staying focused can help you listen to people better and find a solution to problems at a quicker speed。

2. Under what circumstances can you be easily distracted?

答题思路: 让人们分心的无非两种原因,一是外部环境,比如各种噪音,另一种就是心里想着其他事情,也很难专心。

精品答案:As far as I am concerned, only two things can distract people. One is the environment, say, the noisy people around, loud music, construction and traffic sound all get me distracted. The other one is my mind. If there is something else on my mind, I can hardly concentrate 100%。

3. Are there any good ways to keep focused?

答题思路: 专注的最大敌人无非是注意力分散,所以我们要设法避免让自己注意力分散的行为,比如在工作期间不发短信,不聊天;如果处在一个喧闹的环境,可以通过听音乐的方式让自己远离噪音。

精品答案: Well, I think distractions are the enemy of being focused. People have to avoid texting or chatting for non-work related matters while they are doing work. If you're surrounded in a loud environment, listen to calming music or invest in some noise-cancelling (噪音消除) headphones。

七. 时间管理题 Time Management

1. Is time important?

答题思路: 时间的重要性不言自喻,同学们可以背诵一些格言,来体现时间的重要性。

精品答案:Time is super important. There are a lot of sayings about the importance of time, like ‘Time waits for no man.’; ‘Time never comes back when it is gone.’ Nothing can be more precious than time。

2. Are you good at organizing time?

答题思路: 可以回答自己并不善于组织时间,但是自己已经意识到时间管理的重要性,并努力去学习;如果同学们想回答自己善于组织时间,可以参考下一小题。

精品答案:I am not good at it. But now I am realizing the importance of time management, so I am learning how to organize my time in a good way。

3. How do you usually organize time?

答题思路: 笔者认为,组织好时间就是要做出良好的计划,并且按照计划完成一项项的任务。

精品答案:Usually, I will make a plan for all the tasks and break up more time-consuming tasks with shorter, easier tasks. That way I won't be overwhelmed by too many tough tasks。

4. Do you think planning is important for time management?

答题思路: 这道题目相当于第一小题,关于时间的重要性问题。

精品答案:Absolutely important, planning allows me to do important things without wasting time. It also helps me to achieve my goal as soon as possible。

八. 礼貌题 Politeness

1. Do you think that politeness is important? Why?

答题思路: 关于礼貌的重要性可以从个人和国家两个层面来谈。对于个人,礼貌可以让自己有较好的人际关系;对国家而言,礼貌可以代表一个国家的形象。

to the children。

3. Who taught you to be polite?
