雅思口語緊張也扣分?這些技巧能提高你的表現(xiàn)分
作為一個(gè)雅思考生,我們每個(gè)人都希望自己在面對(duì)口語考官的時(shí)候,能夠出口成章,侃侃而談……但這對(duì)于口語基礎(chǔ)沒那么好的中國(guó)考生而言基本上是不可能的任務(wù)。用一個(gè)平時(shí)基本不使用的語言,和陌生的老外對(duì)話,緊張就是自然反應(yīng),“舌頭打結(jié)”才是口語應(yīng)試的正常畫風(fēng)。
但!是!考官不會(huì)因?yàn)槟闶且粋€(gè)辛苦備考的foreigner就對(duì)你網(wǎng)開一面,如果你緊張過度導(dǎo)致說話結(jié)結(jié)巴巴,考官還是會(huì)無情地把分?jǐn)?shù)往5以下打……
今天,小編給大家分享8個(gè)雅思口語備考時(shí)要注意的tips,謹(jǐn)記這些原則,就能讓你在上考場(chǎng)的時(shí)候發(fā)揮更穩(wěn)定!Here we go~
tip 1
Practice wherever you can and whenever you can. Any practice is good, whether you speak to someone who is a native English speaker or not.
隨時(shí)隨地練習(xí)口語。很多烤鴨們備考的時(shí)候總是把口語放在很后面,甚至是要備考前一周才開始看??谡Z其實(shí)是一個(gè)積累的過程,大家備考的時(shí)候最好能夠保證每天都開口說,不一定要練習(xí)題目,但是每天一定要開開口。大家都知道,做題是有語感的,口語也如此。
tip 2
It's important to build your confidence. If possible, use simple English sentence structure that you know is correct, so that you can concentrate on getting your message across.
建立自信很重要。以表達(dá)清晰為主,句型多樣化為次。語言是用來交流的,所以一句話應(yīng)該以交流為目的。在回答考官的問題的時(shí)候也是同理。這點(diǎn)又可以引申出來,考官問什么就答什么,不要跑得很偏的去答之前背過的東西。適當(dāng)?shù)倪w移是思維活躍的體現(xiàn),但是過分的遷移以至于不在主線上,考官是肯定會(huì)不爽的(類比你跟一個(gè)人說話的時(shí)候,同伴只顧自己說自己的,完全不管你的情況。)
tip 3
Try to experiment with the English you know. Use words and phrases you know in new situations. Native English speakers are more likely to correct you if you use the wrong word than if you use the wrong grammar. Experimenting with vocabulary is a really good way of getting feedback.
大膽運(yùn)用所掌握的詞匯,不要過分拘泥于語法。這是一個(gè)很好的跟老外交流的方法。很多人反映外教只會(huì)讓你be natural,這是因?yàn)樗銢]什么好說的,不要讓老外糾正你整段的問題,給你提供答題思路神馬的,這個(gè)老外肯定不如中國(guó)的老師。可以讓他提一些具體的讓語言更native的建議。
tip 4
Try to respond to what people say to you. You can often get clues to what people think by looking at their body language. Respond to them in a natural way.
透過身體語言理解對(duì)方意思并作出回應(yīng)??荚嚨臅r(shí)候考官不會(huì)有什么body language的,但是這不代表他不能感受你的body language,可以適當(dāng)?shù)募由媳砬椋謩?shì)來表達(dá)自己的觀點(diǎn)。相信大家平常說中文的時(shí)候也不會(huì)什么手勢(shì)都木有吧。
tip 5
Try not to translate from or into your own language. This takes too much time and will make you more hesitant.
盡量避免翻譯。有英語思維,這個(gè)其實(shí)挺難做到的,不過可以訓(xùn)練。多說多練會(huì)有提高的。
說到hesitant的問題,糾正大家一個(gè)看法,就是說的越快越好,然后自己一旦卡殼自己就會(huì)很緊張。其實(shí)大可不必這樣子。流利度這個(gè)因素是指的整體的感覺。注意停頓的時(shí)候保持意群的完整性,因?yàn)閮?nèi)容的停頓是絕對(duì)允許的,而且就算是英語國(guó)家的人在想內(nèi)容的時(shí)候停頓也是很正常的,大家不必過于焦慮這個(gè)問題。
tip 6
If you forget a word, do what native English speakers do all the time, and say things that "fill" the conversation. This is better than being completely silent. Try using um or er, if you forget the word.
遇到不知該如何表達(dá)的時(shí)候,用一些常用詞表示自己正在思考。這個(gè)。。。好吧,you know其實(shí)應(yīng)該是中國(guó)考生慣用的拖時(shí)間的方法了。大家也可以積累一些常見的表達(dá)自己在思考的句子,比如說This is greek to me. 或者是剛開始的Whenever I was asked to talk about ... the first thing that has come to my mind is ....之類的。um... er...這個(gè)在考試中還是盡量避免吧~但是還是比大段留白的時(shí)間好。
tip 7
Don't speak too fast. It's important to use a natural rhythm when speaking English. But if you speak too fast, it will be difficult for people to understand you.
語速不要過快。這個(gè)基礎(chǔ)好的烤鴨容易犯,一緊張就說的特別快。對(duì)于這一類的烤鴨,我建議你們?cè)谄匠?梢园炎约旱拇鸢镐浵聛?,自己聽,如果你覺得你的語速已經(jīng)快到影響自己聽懂了,如果你覺得在你現(xiàn)有的語速下出現(xiàn)了很多不正確的吞音。請(qǐng)一定一定要訓(xùn)練自己放慢速度,并且在之后的練習(xí)中習(xí)慣這個(gè)慢速。
tip 8
Try to relax when you speak. When you speak English at anormal speed, you will discover that most of the pronunciation skills, such as linking between words, will happen automatically.
說話時(shí)盡量放松,讓發(fā)音流利順暢。這個(gè)就是外教說的be natural的根源啦。在各種技巧之上,心態(tài)灰常滴重要。把考官當(dāng)做一個(gè)閑扯的伙伴對(duì)考試是非常有幫助的。
