In addition, they don’t have to face the heavy living pressure.
Although apparently they have limited freedom and rights, and they are likely to feel lonely and confused on the way of growth.

And he was famous for his comical movies. In fact, most of his movies were based on comedy and he used to portray some social problems through the movies. I admire him for his special acting skills.

雅思口语技巧的12条黄金法则总结
①Be formal表现地正式
表现的正式是指自己首先要认真对待,既不要过分严肃也不能过分散漫。好的办法是把口语考试看成一场面试,记住在面试时扬长避短,就算自己有不足之处,只要选择不表现这一方面,就不会成为你的缺点!
②Give a full answer完整地回答
完整的回答是指避免one word answer ,推己及人,作为中国人我们都是讨厌别人说中文只说单个字回复的,外国人又怎么会喜欢呢?何况雅思考试是展现自己英语能力的考试,在自己的能力范围内,应该尽可能以完整的句子作答,才能让考官欣然给出高分。
③Be polite 保持礼貌/礼仪
保持礼貌/礼仪是印象分的一部分,这就是说要保持交流中的基本礼貌,比如微笑、注视考官以及不打断考官提问,如果出现了自己没有听懂的提问,可以礼貌地请考官重复,以could you please/would you mind开头来礼貌询问,这样的询问并不会影响自己的分数。
④Maintain good posture 维持好的坐姿
虽然坐姿只是一个细节,但是它有可能影响到烤鸭的发音以及交流的状态,良好的坐姿也是良好印象分的一部分,建议烤鸭们不要采用托腮、撑脸的坐姿,也不要采用自己觉得不舒服的姿势,保持相对正式而自己又不会感到累的坐姿最好。
⑤Speak clearly 说话清楚、语音清晰
雅思口语首先是一场communication,在沟通交流中让对方清楚地听懂自己的讲话是第一位的,因为OG里明确提出允许英式、美式以及澳洲的口音,所以烤鸭们有口音是被允许的。但是这建立在一定要把单词读准的基础上,虽然允许英式、美式甚至澳式口音,但一定不能是方言式口音,所以烤鸭们切记要做到把单词读准,语音清晰,说话清楚。
⑥Use descriptive words 使用新颖的描述性的词汇
因为雅思口语考察的是口语能力,所以要在11-14分钟的考试时间里尽可能把自己的英语水平展现出来,用更好的单词或者句子是必要的,比如用excellent代替good,用gorgeous代替beautiful,烤鸭们可以在日常的口语练习中就严格要求自己。
⑦Speak up 声音洪亮
声音洪亮的目的不仅在于让考官和录音机里的“考官”听到并且听懂,而且也是方便考官和你的交流。因为反过来想,当一个人的声音不洪亮,自然就会让听的人去费心听,也会给人一种不自信的感觉,导致印象分的损失,烤鸭们需要记住在面对考官时一定要声音清晰可闻,这也是你和考官轻松对话的重要基础。
⑧Keep a steady pace 语速合适
说的太快本身容易造成自己的卡顿,说的太慢又会让考官质疑自己的英语能力,那么什么是合适的语速呢?可以参考剑桥雅思听力录音稿中的会话语速;合适的语速会给人带来从容不迫的感觉,也会给自己留下更多思考的余地。
⑨Explain foreign words 解释外国词汇(地名等)
这里的外国词汇主要包含考官不太理解的地名、习俗、习惯,站在交流的角度上,解释是很有必要的,其实换一个角度想,这时你成为了向考官介绍知识的人,你掌握了主动权,这是展现自己英语水平和思维特点的好机会,细致的烤鸭往往能通过这样的介绍赢得考官的好感和继续对话的兴趣。
⑩Stay on topic 紧扣话题
紧扣话题是指围绕问题来回答,不需要回答地过于冗长,也不需要交代很多背景(除非背景与叙述直接相关),考官希望的回答是切中要点的,通常情况下考生应该以流利的表达和有效的观点来取胜,观点后可能附带一到两句解释,但没有必要再讲个故事。
?Don't use slang 拒绝俚语
俚语在这里指的是一切不正式的英语表达,比如说kids就属于非正式的表达,用children代替kids会更好;同理,用item代替things也会让考官更加肯定你的英语水平,拒绝俚语与口语的地道并不冲突,因为children和item同样是地道的口语,不需要使用太过通俗的slang来显示自己很local,以此争取考官的亲近。事实上,这个建议的目的在于再一次重申,口语考试是正式的考试,每个烤鸭需要在短短的14分钟里展现最好的自己,所以尽量使用更正式一点的词汇吧!
?Don’t memorize answers 不要背答案
不要背答案是指,不能够照搬和背诵素材。最好的办法是吸收和借鉴素材里面的观点和表达方式,我们的老师是希望烤鸭们能够真正理解然后化为己用,当烤鸭们面对话题一筹莫展找不出观点的时候,希望我们的素材能够成为真正有益的助力。
以上的十二个建议可以总结成三个要点
①口语考试是正式的考试,要展现自己的最好状态(用更高级的词汇和更好的表达)
②口语考试本质是一场interview,因此印象分千万不能忽视(考场礼仪,坐姿和礼貌)
③考官在跟你沟通,因此给他方便,他也会给你方便(解释他不熟悉的词,声音洪亮清晰)
以上就是雅思口语技巧的12条黄金法则总结的全部内容,我们可以看出这12条雅思口语黄金法则分为3个方面,一个是英语口语的实力基础方面。一个是考试状态方面,还有一个是交流技巧方面。其实这3个方面就是我们在进行一场顺畅的雅思口语考试时需要注意的3个方面。
雅思口语part3话题范文:old people
1. At what age are people considered to be “old” in China?
每个人的想法不同,我的是…
That is really a big question. People’s views much be divided on this. From my perspective, …
按时间区分:以前觉得70+算老人,现在这个定义慢慢延后,因为人们寿命更长,更多的老年人仍旧发挥余热,为社会做出了很多的贡献
The easiest way to divide the old from all is to judge according to the chronological age. In the past, people over 70s are considered to be old, but this line has been shifted gradually with the time goes by, because people nowadays live much longer than before. Many older people can still make great contribution to the society, so broadly speaking, I think, those over 80s, or those who are no longer physically capable can be regarded as just entering the twilight life.
生理年龄不再是唯一的衡量标准,一个人的心理年龄和本身的身体素质更加重要
The biological age has no longer been the only judgment, because the real psychological age and the physical fitness differ from person to person, and they seem to be more important for others to decide whether the person is qualified as “old” or not.
大体而言,50岁以上就感觉在慢慢变老,的却,那个时候的身体和心理逐渐在走下坡路
Broadly speaking, when people are over their 50s, they will gradually feel that they are getting older. Indeed, the physical and mental condition do decrease year by year, with a higher possibility of suffering from diseases and less tolerant and acceptable to different opinions and new ideas.
一个人失去了对人生的热情,其实就已经老了。所有常常会用老来形容一个没有激情的人,而不是形容一个人的年龄
I firmly believe that being “old” is simply connected with the state of mind. If one loses passion for life, they are indeed becoming old. This is why, in China, we tend to describe someone who show very little enthusiasm to life as an old bookish man.
2. Why do old people today live longer than in the past?
医疗水平变高
The advance in medical service means that more diseases become curable and can be easily diagnosed at an early age. Senile diseases such as diabetes and hypertension are less common among the older pensioner and most of them can even live very long with the illness being uncured permanently.
营养更丰富
Food nutrition has also been largely improved, not only because of the development in farming skills but also because of the fertilizers that are used to ensure a higher proportion of diverse types of vitamins being reserved during the planting process within a less time period.
人们更重视运动
Another important factor is the widespread scientific reports that emphasize the positive effects of regular exercise on people’s physical fitness, so most of the modern people become more aware of the importance of doing sports and many older people, with more time available after retirement, participate actively in various sorts of sports.
定期的健康检查,很多问题可以及早被发现
Besides, regular health check has been required by most companies nowadays in China and younger people also arrange this activity for their aging parents. It is now fair to say that many potential health hazards can be easily found in advance and therefore be avoided eventually.
更多对于老龄化问题的关注,使得很多福利机构和实施被建造
More attention has been paid for the aging society, so government and private charity groups have set up many nursing house and other accessible facilities for the senior citizens, which means generally, a higher living standard can be expected and people then live much longer under a better welfare system.
3. What are some things a person can do to help them live longer?
多运动
An obvious answer is to take part in more outdoor activities because it can enhance the immune system and further build up the physical fitness. Especially in an outdoor atmosphere, we can breathe more fresh air and speed up the process of metabolism.
定期的健康检查
Regular health check should be taken on a, at least, yearly basis. So that diseases can be found well before it poses any threat to our body and our mind.
多和家人朋友沟通,减轻压力
Also, I would suggest people to frequently talk to their friends and family members, particularly on the occasion of feeling stressful or facing difficulties. By expressing one’s emotion feely, one can actually easily release the negative emotion and find hope in life, which seems to be more important than just being healthy physically.
适当调整目标,不要太逼自己
Even though the modern life has set higher demand for most people, in order to live longer, people should constantly adjust their goals to keep pace with their ability at the time. Pushing oneself too much is definitely detrimental to the expansion of longevity.
选择自己喜欢的事情,而不是做一些让自己痛苦的事情
In any stage of one’s life, people should choose to participate in the things that interest them most instead of those impose heavy mental pressure and make them hopeless all the time.
少看电视,多读书
A simple solution could be the reduction of TV time and Internet addiction and to spend more time on reading books or other mentally healthy activities, such as playing chess or listening to the music.
4. Are the attitudes of young people today towards old people the same as they used to be, years ago?
没变:
非常尊重年长者,愿意和他们交流
I personally didn't see any change in recent decade. Younger people are still very respectful and willing to talk and receive suggestions from the older ones.
觉得老年人是需要关怀的群里,愿意去支持帮助他们
As for me, I usually believe that the elderly are more vulnerable than the younger people, so I’m always willing to help them and I think this attitude is shared by most youngsters.
有变化:
以前更加尊重,现在变得比较冷漠,比如老人摔跤了
Unfortunately, we become less respectful of the older people, and almost indifferent to their request. For example, when an older person fall down on the street, very few people, especially the youth, will step up and give a hand immediately, because we worry about being defrauded of money by them, since similar occasions did happen in the past when some unlawful old people commit crime like this.
以前觉得老人都是经验丰富的,现在可能觉得他们只不过在倚老卖老
In previous time, we believe that older people have very rich experience, but the world is changing too fast. The wisdom they have become less practical in the modern-day society. So we are less likely to rely on them.
有些老年人确实比较保守纠结,年轻人可能会比较不喜欢和年长者相处
Some of the older generation are indeed more conservative, so younger people, who are interested in making changes and trying new things, are not very much willing to spend time with the aged.
看每个人的性格:
有些比较排斥长着,有些则更看重内涵,而不是一个人的年龄
Generally, it depends on the personality of each individual. Some may only want to communicate with people in similar age, others value the intrinsic character more, rather than the age.
雅思口语part3话题范文:Music
1. What kinds of music are suitable for children? Why?
idea:欢快活泼(upbeat/cheerful/lively),朗朗上口的(catchy)旋律
reason:这样的旋律学起来很容易,也让孩子们开心(cheer them up),他们可以快乐地跟着音乐唱跳(sing/dance to the music)
example:Gangnam Style是韩国流行音乐(K-Pop),歌词也听不懂,可是孩子也喜欢,就因为其旋律很好被孩子接受(well-received among children)
idea:歌曲主题(themes/subjects)贴近孩子生活,歌词(lyrics)简单
reason:歌词很生动(vivid),有画面感(have pictures/images in mind),更容易吸引孩子们的注意力(draw their attention),并引起他们共鸣(relate to)
example:两只老虎,小燕子,小兔子乖乖等经典(classic)童谣都是以孩子们喜欢的动物为主题
sample answer:
Well, I’m no expert on this, but I suppose one of the most important thing is the melody should be upbeat and catchy. Kids are always happy, so naturally they’d love music that cheers them up. On top of that, most children can’t handle complicated melody, what they need is something simple and memorable, so they can sing and dance to it easily and happily. Another thing I guess is the lyrics should be about subjects children can relate to. For example, the little ones normally adore songs about animals.
推荐词汇
I’m no expert on this. 我并非这方面的专家
2. Do you think people’s tastes in music will change as they get older?
idea:同意,会改变
reason:人的一生有机会接触到(get exposed to)不同的音乐类型(music genres),然后就会喜欢上(fall in love with)一种新的音乐;又或者是跟个性特点(characteristics/personal traits)有关,年轻人精力充沛(energetic/enthusiastic),喜欢追求刺激(look for thrill/excitement),因此更容易跟动感的(dynamic)流行音乐产生共鸣,而随着年纪和经历(life experience)的增长,很多人的个性变得温和沉稳(calm),这样的心态更容易接受古典音乐(classical music)或者交响乐(symphony)这样的类型
example:很多人年轻的时候痴迷于(be crazy about)摇滚乐(rock music),觉得非常热血沸腾(thrilling/energizing),然而等年纪增长以后就失去兴趣,觉得这种类型太嘈杂(noisy),甚至听了身体都会不舒服
idea:不改变
reason:因为热爱,人们对于一种事物的热情不会衰减(the passion never fades)
example:我的伯伯是个死忠的爵士粉(a diehard Jazz fan)
sample answer:
Well, I think my answer is yes and no. On the one hand, people have lots of chances to get exposed to different types of music at different stages of life, so it’s very likely that they will find something that fascinates them, and their tastes in music will change. On the other hand, people just love what they liked in their youth, and his/her passion for a certain genre just never fades. Take my uncle for example, he’s been a diehard Jazz fan all his life. He just can’t get enough of it.
3. Has Chinese music been influenced by western music?
肯定有影响(definitely/absolutely)-全球化(globalization)不断推进,加之网络的推波助澜(with the help of the internet),我国人民可以与世界人民同步(keep up with the global trend),有机会听到来自西方的音乐,影响是难以避免(inevitable)的,尤其是流行音乐-西方国家有很多才华横溢的(talented/gifted)音乐人,他们激励了(inspire)我国的音乐人,同时西方音乐在音乐类型,创意(creativity/innovation),技术(techniques)等各方面都有很多值得我们学习的地方-当前国内的流行音乐深受西方影响(have a big impact on),有很多西方音乐的元素(element),比如像是饶舌(rap)。
sample answer:
Yeah, definitely! It’s almost impossible to not get influenced, thanks to globalization, and I think it’s fair to say that pop music in particular has learned the most from western music. There are so many truly talented musicians in western countries, and they have inspired Chinese musicians tremendously. Nowadays you can see lots of western elements added into our pop songs. For example, rap is all the age these days in my country, and the younger generation just love it. They think it’s cool and fun.
推荐词汇
all the rage,大行其道,很受欢迎
4. Shopping malls and shops often play background music. Can you suggest why they do that?
这是重要的营销手段(marketing tool),而且非常有效(effective)-音乐是很有力量的(powerful and magical),可以影响人们的心情(have an effect on/affect people’ mood)-像是快节奏歌曲(fast-tempo songs)能让人振作起精神(lift someone’s spirit),甚至听到以后会开心起来(put someone in a good mood)-音乐营造了(create)很好的一个氛围(an inviting atmosphere),顾客在店里会感到放松(chilled out)快乐-这样的心态下, 人们就更愿意(be willing to do)呆在店里,多试(try out)几套衣服(outfits)然后买走(pay for)
sample answer:
The way I see it, it’s just one of the marketing tools that business people use to boost sales, and I must say it’s pretty effective. We all know that music is powerful and magical. For instance, fast-tempo music has the ability to lift our spirits and put us in a very good mood. I mean, the music creates an inviting atmosphere in the malls or shops, which makes customers feel chilled out and happy. Then people are willing to stay for a little bit longer, try out different outfits and then pay for them eventually.
雅思口语拿分技巧总结
雅思口语备考时的技巧
雅思口语考试技巧一:提前准备适合自己的口语高分词汇
在备考的时候,准备一些常用的7分雅思词汇和雅思技巧,在适当的时候脱口而出,会给你的考试增光添色,同时要在考前的练习过程中,掌握好paraphrase的方法,因为在雅思考试的过程中,由于紧张或者是本身词汇的匮乏,在自己不会的单词上面会卡壳,而雅思口语是相对比较灵活的,在这种情况下,需要我们用其他的话去替代那个卡壳的点,这样你的雅思口语就会顺畅、自然。
雅思口语考试技巧二:灵活应对雅思口语考试中的话题
雅思考试中的话题有很多,疑难话题是大家拿到雅思口语满分的最大障碍,当你在雅思考试的时候,遇到的题目是从来没有见过的,或者是自己比较生疏的话题,需要你灵活转换,但是当你无法做到灵活转化的时候,那就需要说一个最容易而且最能说出内容的话题。
雅思口语考试技巧三:充分利用考试中笔记记录
雅思口语考试中的一张纸,就是第二部分开始的时候,考官会给你一张纸和一支笔,让你在思考的时候可以做一些笔记,有些考生觉得做笔记没什么意义,因为做完了之后,说的时候还是和笔记大相径庭,这说明考生在下面练习的时候没有很好的掌握通过看笔记说英语的习惯,因此在考场上才会觉得笔记没太大作用。
雅思口语考试技巧四:调节心理状态,不畏惧,不胆怯
雅思考试注重的是语言的应用性,因此在考场中的状态和心态对你的考试起到了举足轻重的作用,大部分的考生都没有参加过这样的口语考试,因此在考前对考试存在一种惧怕感,总是担心自己见到老外之后,可能会说的都会变成不会说的,这就是一种考试障碍,所以需要大家把自己的心态放平稳,一定要把雅思口语考试当成是一个和考官的谈话,是和一个陌生人的谈话,仅此而已。把自己想说的,能说的,全都表达出来。
两个拓展雅思口语答题思路的方法
A.既要多角度,又要全面
口语考试中,考生常犯思考角度单一,内容不丰富的毛病。其实答题要从多角度思考,还要合理。需要先直接给明确答案,保证考官了解你已经领会了问题的用意。
B.有逻辑地”秀“一下
要学会主动性拓展答题,不要只回答考官提问,在考官问题基础上自己增加信息量。灵活套用自问自答方式,把所需回答内容的关键信息,连同发散开来的信息一起传达给考官。切记,内容拼凑要合理完整,不要胡编乱造,没有逻辑性。另外,需要注意的是掌握适度原则,否则也可能被认定偏题。
雅思口语考试答题时的技巧
1、自信最重要
即使自己的英语口语不好,在雅思口语考试中也要保持冷静。 在考试的时候要自信,不要紧张。尤其是面对考试官的时候更要冷静,时时刻刻与高考有眼神的交流,学生尽量在语言和表情上让考官感觉你是一个自信的人,让考官感觉你的回答是真实的,而不是“背”出来的。
2、掌握节奏
如果考生反应跟不上考官速度,可能会让考官认为考生心不在焉,或者对英语信息的处理速度不够快。考生备考时找一个可以用英语交流的朋友,以一问一答的形式来模拟考试,锻炼自己的听力和反应能力。
3、切忌答非所问
雅思考试中可能学生会因为紧张没有听清楚考官的问题,这个时候千万不能胡蒙乱猜,雅思考试可以允许你听不懂问两遍的,这是不会影响考生成绩的。但口语考试是看整体的,考生应该在平时多加训练,可以参加一些培训机构,模拟雅思考试。
4、流利度很重要
流利度能使我们口语感觉更好,不论是提高英语口语,还是要面对雅思考试,这点是毋庸置疑的!大家一定注意平时多做雅思口语练习,不要不敢说,多关注一下雅思口语考试内容。在平时多用英语交流,提高英语的流利度。
5、未雨绸缪
有些学生遇到一些问题无法回答,他们就觉得自己口语有问题或者词汇量有问题,其实不一定。可能那些问题让他们用中文说也不一定说的好,那是因为“肚子里没有墨水”!这样一来,口语成绩都会受到影响!所以,平时要多看英语报纸,积累些内容。
掌握雅思口语技巧是很有必要的,同学们不要小看这些简单的问题与回答,你的一举一动都能传达给考官不同的信息。俗话说得好,台上十分钟,台下十年功,关键还是在于平时的积累,在雅思口语考试中要放平心态,努力备战。

口语范文
Ok then. well after a bit of thought. I've decided to talk to you about bamboo. However, I honestly don't know if I'm gonna be able to talk for two minutes about it, but I'll give it a try!
好好想想。我决定和你谈谈竹子。不过,说实话,我不知道我是否能谈上两分钟,但我会试试看!
So first of all, as for how I know about bamboo, well I can't really remember exactly how I first got to know about it, you know, it could have been in a biology class at school, or when I was out somewhere with my parents, but my guess would be that I probably first knew about it at primary school, because that was about the time when we first started learning about things like that.
首先,至于我怎么知道竹子,我不能清楚地记得我第一次知道它,你知道,可能是在学校的生物课,或者当我和我的父母,但我猜想我可能首先知道它在小学,因为这是我们刚开始的时候学习。
Anyway, moving on to why bamboo is important, well I'd say it's pretty important for a number of reasons, the main one of which would be that it can be used to make so many different things, you know, such as chopsticks, chopping boards, flooring, what else.um......oh yeah, and musical instruments, like the bamboo flute for example.
不管怎样,我们来谈谈为什么竹子很重要,我想说它很重要有很多原因,其中最主要的一个原因是它可以用来做很多不同的东西,比如筷子,砧板,地板等等哦,对了,还有乐器,比如竹笛。
And another thing to mention is that bamboo is also used a lot for carrying stuff. For example, what I've seen people do is rest it on their shoulders, and then hang things on each end, because as well as being strong, it's also very flexible, so it won't break, even with very heavy loads.
另外值得一提的是竹子也经常被用来搬运东西。例如,我看到人们把它放在肩膀上,然后把东西挂在两头,因为它不仅很结实,而且很灵活,所以即使负重也不会断裂。
雅思口语part2素材积累:特别的玩具
Describe a special toy you had in your childhood.
You should say:
what it was
who gave it to you
how often you played with it
and explain why it was special to you.
When I was five years old, I had an accident and was admitted in the hospital. I was required to stay in bed for at least two months. Days in the patient ward wasn’t as dull as I expected it to be. Actually the first week was quite fun. I could watch TV in bed and chat with my fellow “roommates” and my family visited me everyday.
But after a while, the hospital gradually started to lose its charm. I was getting bored when my Dad showed up. With a hat in his hand, he started to perform magic tricks. Out of thin air, he produced a flower and put it in the hat. Guess what happened next? He made a magic cube from the hat.
I was immediately in love with the magic cube. Time seemed to go much faster when my Dad taught me how to play it. Before I knew it, I was running around again. Till this day I play it on a daily basis. It always reminds me of my special bonding time with my Dad.
雅思口语提分技巧一Don't confess your English is poor.决不坦白
有些考生本来英语不差,但在开始作自我介绍时就和考官说:My name is……My English is not very good.提醒大家的是,即使英语真的不咋样,也不能坦露。考生答题时一定要表现出足够自信,面带微笑,声音洪亮,保持眼神交流,给考官留下良好的第一印象。
雅思口语提分技巧一Listen carefully and respond quickly.仔细听题、快速反应
不少考生备考口语考试时,忽略了加强听力练习,殊不知,口语交流的前提是听懂问题。不少考生口语考试时因听力不足而交流不畅,无法做到快速反应。
建议大家找一个可以用英语交流的朋友,以一问一答的形式来模拟正式考试,既可以逼真地模拟考试场景,也可以锻炼听力和反应能力,还可以培养用眼神交流的习惯。
雅思口语提分技巧一Don't pretend you understand the questions when you don't.不可不懂装懂
有些考生考试时由于紧张或听力不好没听清考官的问题,但又不想暴露,于是便连蒙带猜给出一个答案。但是,如果考生不懂装懂,答非所问,万一答案错误,就会给考官留下听力很差的印象。其实在考试中要求考官重复或确认很正常,尤其是问题比较长而复杂时。所以,与其猜测不如确认或请考官重复问题,比如:Sorry, what was that? I'm sorry?
雅思口语提分技巧一Use hesitation devices appropriately.巧用停顿技巧
考生即使准备再充分,也难免被考官问到一些冷僻或棘手的问题,这时恰当地使用停顿技巧就变得很重要。比如:
Q:Do you enjoy singing?
A:Singing? Well, I'm not very keen on singing, but I do like listening to music.
考生答题时可先重复问题中的一些关键词作为确认,同时给自己时间思考。well, actually, you see, you know what等都是英语中最常用的停顿表达方法。
雅思口语提分技巧一Don't memorize answers.不可背诵答案
不少考生备考时,把参考书中的例子也背下来以应对考试。背书的考生通常语速过快、没有语调、表情不自然,很容易被考官发现。
背书是一种投机取巧的作弊手段,无法真实地反映考生的口语水平。而考官可以灵活出题,忽然提一个刁钻的问题,如果刚才还很流利的考生忽然开始结巴,说话不知所云,就会引起考官怀疑。考官一旦发现考生在背书,就会给出很低的成绩
所以,大家要认真练习口语,注意语速不可过快,语调自然起伏,避免单一。
雅思口语提分技巧一Develop answers by offering detailed information.提供细节、扩展答案
考官给考生打分的判断的底线。所以,扩展答案很重要。选择什么角度扩展,取决于考生自己。如果遇到冷僻或陌生的话题,可尝试从不同角度讲述。
雅思口语提分技巧一Don't panic if you've made a mistake.犯错不慌
很多考生语法意识太强,担心自己的答案会出现语法错语,结果在答题中出现了大量停顿和纠错现象,使语言表达的流利度大打折扣。
其实,考生大可不必为答题中出现的语法错误过度担心。一旦犯错,如果意识到了,可及时改正,没有改正也无伤大雅,没必要慌张。有时候考官也可能没注意到,关键在于是否能够流畅表达,对方能否理解。

雅思学习零基础需注意的内容有哪些
雅思高分不可一日获得,雅思小编提醒,零基础学雅思的同学应注意以下四个方面:
1.学习的动力。有兴趣,有目的,自然就学的快,反之就慢了。有一个零基础学生之前学校有教英语,但是他上英语课都不听,后来家长想把它送出国,才来学习雅思的,这种本身对英语有抵制态度的零基础学生需要较长的学习时间,因为他的学习阶段比大部分零基础考生多了一个:培养学习英语的兴趣。
2.学习雅思的时间。比如有的零基础考生平时上班上课,只有周末才能学习,这样进度肯定比较慢的。因此,对于不同零基础考生的不同时间,考生们一定要对自己的时间有专门的安排,最大化学习时间效率的分配。
3.专业的雅思老师和合适的课程。如果有专业的雅思老师在旁指导,那零基础考生的进步将会突飞猛进,学习中能少走跟多弯路。
4.必胜的信心。很多零基础考生的时候,发现他们一开始的信心都很不够,他们会一直觉得英语好难好难,单词这么多,语法那么多,不会开口说,发音不标准等等,其实这些都不是问题,同学们不需要畏惧雅思,应该把它当做日常生后的一部分。
零基础学雅思还需避免以下三个误区,同学们一定要重视起来:
一、一开始就死抠语法
语法很重要,但语言的本质是交流,深度交流需要读和写的技能,更广泛直接的交流需要听和说。语法分支很细,对雅思零基础学员而言,掌握雅思基础语法里的基本时态、句型使用即可,切忌过多纠缠。因为在没有大量词汇、阅读的前提下,谈语法不啻于建造空中楼阁,更无法体会语法的灵活性。更会消耗无谓的精力和时间,消磨雅思考试的信心。
二、背机经和模板投机取巧
走捷径是任何人最直观的想法,所以很多机经和模板才大行其道。开头我们就明白了,现在雅思考试评分标准在收紧,模板风险只高不低。尤其基础不好的人背模板只会雪上加霜,基础好的同学利用模板才会个性化处理,形成锦上添花的效果。
三、用100%的标准要求自己背单词
我们老师在辅导的过程中见过很多这样的学员,第一天开始就勤背单词,第二天就检查前一天的成果,如果还有记错拼错的单词再回头重学。这样学诚然很扎实,但时间不等人,学习进度就非常缓慢。而且当单词记忆进入到第三天、第四天、甚至更久,这些同学发现遗忘的单词非常多,于是产生了恐惧心理——我连单词都记不住,我还能考出来雅思吗?
雅思小编提醒有这样想法的零基础考生:遗忘非常正常,再牛的学霸都会有遗忘。很多人就会去查艾宾浩斯记忆曲线,希望对照着遗忘规律强化单词认知,其实这样还是不得法。背单词的目的是什么——是你在使用时有词库。但是不使用,背再多的单词也只是扔了一堆无用的砖块在脑海里。
所以对零基础学员而言最有效的背单词方法就是背完后不要过多地孤立地去测试自己的词汇掌握情况,而是尽量去造句、说出来,每天保证至少四十分钟的听力量,通过一个月的时间将听力量、口语训练量和基础阅读量累积出来,到第二个月学雅思时才能对语法、词汇更快更灵敏的反应,还能促进有效使用和正确使用率。
首先来看人物类,人物类一直属于题库中相对容易且好准备的题目。所以其实必备题目并不多,建议大家人物类只要准备好三个题目就没有太大问题,分别是describe an old person(描述一个老年人),describe a teenager/friend(描述一个青少年或者朋友)以及describe a famous person(描述一个名人)。
那么这三个题目如何应用在口语题库中的所有题目中,我们具体来看。题库中现在在考得describe a person you want to spend time with,我们用老年人或者朋友都可以。Describe a comedy actor这一最近的热门题目,我们就可以和名人结合。再比如让我们描述一个邻居,我们也完全可以和青少年或者老人题目结合。
地点题,建议大家必备类型为,describe a house/apartment(描述一个房子),describe a city(描述一个城市),describe a garden(描述一个花园),describe a restaurant(描述一个餐厅)。选择准备的为describe a country(描述一个国家)。这一类题目通用性较强。例如,口语中以前考察的describe a room就可以由房子一题变过来。
再如,描述一个餐厅,描述一个购物中心以及描述一个咖啡厅,整体内容和结构是类似的,都是描述在哪里,吃什么(卖什么,喝什么),怎么知道的以及为什么喜欢。
且喜欢的理由都可以类似,基本可以总结为1. Good service 2. Convenient location 3. Economical/ have a reasonable price 4. Comfortable environment and atmosphere等。描述花园一题,可以用于describe a peaceful place,describe a place near water甚至做一些改变,就可以用于describe a tourist attraction一题当中。
雅思三月复习6.5心得之口语
这次复习了三个月。整整90天。我没有太大的要求。6.5够我申请学校的分数就可以了。感觉要死了一样。写这个就是想给还挣扎在5-5.5的同伴们一些建议和信心。我们想要的最终都会通过我们的努力得到的。
口语算是硬伤了。头一次考只拿了4.5。那个时候傻,什么都不会上考场,各种紧张。之前看了一个网站趴兔雅思,考试的时候真的考到了上面的题目,但是我之前也就是随便看看,没有购买素材,结果考场当时脑子都空白了,稀里糊涂说了一大堆,最后一个that's all 结束。我估计我这种情况大概有些人也碰到过。
后来再准备雅思的时候我就改变套路了。老师跟我说,一定要自然。可是怎么才能自然啊。。之后她给我定了一个计划。复习的三个月里,前两个月我都没有准备雅思口语。话题卡啊什么都我都没看。那这一个月我在看什么呢?
为了说的自然。雅思听力section1都是对话。而且和美剧不同,它没有那么快,可是说得都很自然,而且该重读该连读的地方一个都没少。我要做的就是跟读,跟着他们的音调起伏来进行模仿。该重读的,该吞音的,该连读的,该声调,该降调的这些统统都要注意,都要去模仿。为什么呢?如果你去路一段自己说的,再和老外的对比一下就会发现你说的一直都是平的。没有起伏。别问我为什么。你把说中文的习惯带到英文中了。具体怎么回事,我解释不清楚。我不是语言学家。
跟读section1是为了学习老外对话时的自然。而跟读新概念2则是学习怎样在独白的时候做到自然。新概念2基本都是一个人在那边讲故事,但是细心的同学会发现,就算你根本听不明白,也会随着他的语音语调了解故事的起承转合。这个就是姐让我去模仿的。而且新概念还有一个好处就是基本都是过去时,这对于经常在过去时上栽跟头的我们来说,无疑是一个很好的练习方法。跟读到后来,过去时也用得很自然了。
最后一个月我才开始着手准备雅思口语。其实连着跟读了两个月,很多东西都会自然而然地记在脑子里。很多句式和单词,都是考口语的时候可以用到的。这次口语我直接购买了趴兔雅思的口语素材,直接百度或者某宝搜索就好了;可以在手机上看,很方便,难易程度是自己选的,我特意选了适合我这个level的;最重要的是,蹲点的题目都是上面的,哈哈哈,不要太开心,我专门选了一些针对我考场的话题,提前准备好了答案,然后再结合我前两个月的学习,在考场上再也没有怯场,很顺畅的就回答出了考官的问题;
总之我感觉前两个月的语音语调训练+后一个月的雅思针扣性素材学习,才是我顺利通过的要素!
要知道,雅思口语考试都是一对一真人对话,考试过程中总是有主观性,能否讨好口语考官,除了考生自带和颜悦色,最重要的还是口语问答的质量。小站雅思君建议考生的对话偏积极正面,比如问你有关日常,考生A:我每天9点起床,10点才出门,11点吃午饭,然后睡午觉,吃饭,打游戏,到凌晨睡觉。考生B:我每天8点就起床了,给自己做一顿丰富的早餐,然后撸猫,等到快中午的时候,准备饭菜,邀请好友吃饭聊天。到了下午开始打扫房间,晚上去超市购物,做个spa,享受美好的假期。同样是说日常,考生A的日常单调无聊,不仅没有新意而且很死板,但是考生B的话题内容丰富很多,作为考官怎么会不喜欢考生B?
考生要明确,雅思口语考试考察的是考生的语言能力,而不是语言艺术,重点是能力,所以,不要把话题内容描述的过于复杂深奥,过度使用生僻词汇很容易踩雷。一般来说,雅思口语话题的内容力求简单明了,用词准确、丰富即可,不需要太多生僻词汇,对于很多考生来说,高级词汇就是生僻词汇,但在考官眼中,这样的词汇都是拗口的文言文,词汇不高级,也并不能提高分数,有时考生误用所谓高级词汇,用不对场合,反而会影响考生的分数。
比如口语话题:描述一个很久不见的朋友。考生A说的是自己大学时候的老师,考生B说的是十年前的自己。考生A是这样描述的:毕业了,很久没有和过去一位非常尊敬的老师联系了,一个年近60岁却还有一头乌黑头发的教授,他是我的文学课老师,大二的时候选修他的课,听他讲了很多美国文学作品和作者,大家都非常喜欢他在课堂上分享的文学故事,他的课很受欢迎,在课堂上,他很善于调动同学们的情绪。作为一个即将退休的老教授,他和同学们的关系相处的都非常好,像朋友一般,上学的时候我和教授是非常好的朋友,他曾经送过我一本他自己翻译的诗集,如今10年过去了,虽然我们很久没见面,但我们在网络上的交流一直没有中断。
考生B的话题描述是这样的:十年前的我刚刚大学毕业,在大城市迷路了,一边寻找着工作机会,一边寻找梦想。在这里扎根太难了,我每天早起挤地铁坐公交,下班很晚才到家,那时候梦想距离我还很遥远。经过多年的努力,我终于在这座城市有了一个家,有了一份薪水还不错的工作,距离我的梦想每天都更进一步的日子过得太充实了。看着多年前的自己,就像很久不见的老友,真的很感慨。
小站雅思君觉得虽然考生B在描述上看着很动情,但是显然话题内容过于抽象了,也没有将重点放在朋友这个关键词上,所以,作为考官来说,这样复杂深刻的内容,并不是一个好的选择。
除了雅思口语part2是独白,在其他部分,建议考生多一些开放式回答,不要一次性把话题内容都讲完,比如考官问你家乡在哪,只要回答到家住.,小城市即可,不要一下把家乡特产都说完,搞不好考官以为你提前准备了后面的内容,判定你作弊就不划算了。
此外,到了雅思口语part3部分,考官问你的都是可以商量的话题,比如你觉得是老年人还是年轻人更喜欢做运动?这种话题两方面都可以回答,如果只说一点呢,内容还是稍微干巴了一点。所以建议那些话题内容少的考生,尽量选择开放式回答,多说一点内容。
雅思口语高频题型:事件类话题解析
对比了5-8月和9-12月的雅思口语话题,本季雅思口语part1共出现了新话题:12个,包括:眼镜、假期、电影、烹饪、鞋、天气、照片、颜色、城市、绘画、花园等;part2出现了新话题:20个,其中事件类话题是当之无愧的高频话题,包括:收红包、手作礼物、上网查资料、搞笑节目、独自活动、家族生意、好的法律、吃药、提供建议、投诉建议及恐怖经历等;人物类话题居第二,想见的人、有趣的人、环保人士等,关于雅思口语高频题型如何备考,小站雅思君觉得,无论是事件类还是人物、物品,话题之间都是相通的,关键是口语题型的逻辑和表述思路。
举个例子:9-12月雅思口语高频题型话题之Describe a complaint that you made and you were satisfied with the result描述一个投诉成功的案例。
这个话题是典型的事件类话题,一开始这个话题对于很多考生来说还是很陌生的,投诉经历本身就少,和投诉相关的词汇及表达就更少了。不过我们的思路可以这样展开,比如喜欢网购的女性可以将网购话题和投诉话题结合起来,而热爱运动健身的男生可以将运动话题和投诉话题结合起来。总之考生的脑洞一定要大,所以提前准备话题是没错的。
下面是范文思路:说到投诉我的经历并不多,但我很喜欢购物,买到东西也会遇到产品瑕疵问题,走退货流程,最近一次的投诉成功经历大概就是上个月吧。我在淘宝上看中了一套茶具,因为是玻璃制品,所以我特意注明要注意包装和运输,但是收货的时候还是损坏了一个小杯子。于是我就将这个破损的杯子拍下,并进入了退货流程,商家很快就和我沟通,问我是否接受折价赔偿,我拒绝了,于是我把东西原路退回,但是迟迟没有收到退款。于是我向淘宝提起投诉,因为我是高级会员,所以这次的投诉经历在24小时内就得到回应,淘宝预先将退款补偿给我,剩下的事就是淘宝和那位商家的事情了。总之这次的投诉结果我很满意,中间没有吵架,大家都很理性。当然也提醒我今后购物还是要多小心。
雅思高频口语题型解析:
注重细节:一定要点题,多次点题,虽然考生将话题迁移到自己熟悉的购物上,但是整个话题叙事过程中要侧重投诉这个环节的细节。比如投诉平台,投诉流程,投诉的效果。
几个关键词:成功的 投诉经历,所以考生的关注点一定要落在成功这个结果上。
注意时态:这题是过去的经历,考生一定要注意是成功的案例,也就是过去发生的,尚待解决的投诉经历是不可以的
雅思口语素材及其短语:描述匆忙时刻
1. When was the last time you did something in a hurry?
Um… when was it?...Let me have a think…I guess it was probably um… a few weeks ago, when I was on holiday, and I had booked a taxi to arrive at the place where I was staying, at about noon-ish, and I still had some clearing up to do, you know, I didn’t want to leave the place in a mess. So yeah, I was basically in a hurry tidying everything up and getting all my things packed before the taxi arrived.
嗯……什么时候?……让我想想……我想大概是……几个星期前,当我度假时,我预订了一辆出租车去我住的地方,大约中午时分,我还有一些清理工作要做,你知道,我不想把地方弄得一团糟。是的,我基本上很匆忙整理一切,在出租车到来之前把所有东西收拾好。
2. Do you like to finish things quickly?
Yeah I do, cos I really don’t like things to hang over me, you know, it’s just not a nice feeling when you’ve got stuff to do hanging at the back of your mind. So I like to get stuff done as quickly as I can,but saying that, I still want to do it well of course! I mean, I’m not gonna do something haphazardly just to get it done quickly, I still wanna make sure I do it well!
是的,我喜欢,因为我真的不喜欢事情缠着我,你知道,当你有事情要做的时候,这种感觉并不好。所以我喜欢尽可能快地把事情做完,但是说,我还是想把它做好!我的意思是,我不会随便做一些事情,只是为了尽快完成,我仍然想确保我做得很好。
3. What kinds of things do you never do in a hurry?
It’s an interesting question!... I’ve never really thought about that one! What kinds of things will I never do in a hurry?...um… I suppose things I would never do in a hurry would be important things, like coursework which counts towards my final grade, and what else?...I’m kind of hard pressed to think! Um… oh yeah, getting to the airport to catch a flight! You know, I’ll always give myself lots of time to get there, even if it means I arrive at the airport several hours in advance, cos it just gives me peace of mind. I mean, if you miss a flight, then your holiday’s probably gone down the drain, so it can be pretty disastrous!
这是个有趣的问题!…我从来没有真正想过那个!什么事我都不会匆忙去做?……嗯……我想我永远不会匆忙做的事会是很重要的事情,比如课程作业,它关系到我的期末成绩,还有什么别的?…我有点难以思考!嗯……哦,是的,到机场赶飞机!你知道,我总是给自己很多时间去那里,即使这意味着我提前几个小时到达机场,因为这样让我心情平静。我的意思是,如果你错过了一个航班,那么你的假期可能会被耗尽,所以它可能是相当灾难性的!
4. Why do people make mistakes more easily when they are in a hurry?
Um… well thinking about it, I suppose it’s simply because when people are in a hurry, they’re not really thinking clearly. You know, their mind’s kind of um.. how can I put it… I guess you could say flustered, thinking about lots of things at the same time, and not really being focused. So in that state of mind, I think you’d agree it’s easy to overlook things, especially small details, which will likely lead to mistakes being made!
嗯…好好想想,我想这只是因为当人们匆匆忙忙的时候,他们并没有很清楚地思考。你知道,他们的头脑是这样的…我怎么说呢……我想你可以说慌乱,同时想很多事情,却没有真正专注。所以,在这种心态下,我认为你会同意很容易忽略一些事情,尤其是小细节,这可能导致犯错误!

雅思口语考场技巧 掌握这5条口语高分不再难!
一. 雅思口语考场技巧之微笑+自信
进入考场后,不要紧张,如果太过紧张肯定会影响答题,也会影响考官对你的印象,口语分数自然也不可能高了。
答题之前对考官报以微笑,能让自己放松一些,也能让考官放松一些。答题的时候要表现出完全的自信,要将自己的感情带入到口语回答中,声调有起伏,重点信息要重读强调,让考官更容易捕捉到你的表达的重点,表达尽量流畅避免磕巴,发音准确,口语回答结束时可用结束语提示考官。
二. 雅思口语考场技巧之知考官所想
这一点其实在考前就要做好准备,要了解考试中考官的评分点在什么地方,如何回答口语问题才更容易引起考官注意,取得高分。如果对于雅思口语评分规则不了解,可以找口语老师或者考过雅思口语的同学给你口语答题方面一些建议。一般情况下,雅思口语考官所看重的点也就是在前文提到过的四个点:是否流利连贯,发音是否准确,用词是否丰富,语法是否正确。大家在口语答题的时候也要注意这四个点。
三. 雅思口语考场技巧之巧用连词
雅思口语考试中连词的使用非常重要,巧用练习可以让你的口语答题显得更加连贯,也更容易取得高分。雅思口语考试三个版块的连词使用也各有不同,第一部分答题更偏口语化,使用基本连词即可,比如and、but等等;第二部分主要是考生自我陈述,这部分大家可以使用一些诸如first、next、after that等连词;第三部分是针对第二部分的深入讨论,连词的使用要稍微“高端”一些,可以用subsequently、further more等等。
四. 雅思口语考场技巧之表达地道
想要拿到高分就得让自己的口语表达听起来非常地道。那么,如何才能达到这样的效果呢?可以使用一些俚语或者习语(平时注意积累),然后再第一和第二部分的答题中可以适当用使用一些,让自己的口语表达更地道。小站雅思君提醒大家,使用俚语和习语一定要在保证正确的基础上,如果对用法掌握仍不熟练,不建议使用。
五. 雅思口语考场技巧之注意part2和part3的联系
我们在上文中说到过,雅思口语答题的时候,第二部分和第三部分是有联系的,第三部分是针对第二部分的更加深入的讨论。所以大家在回答part2的时候要多注意,不要盲目答题讲一些自己无法深入探讨的内容。

【口语范文】
Speaking of the topic, I suddenly think of something happening last summer, when I was still a t university student. During the vocation, I went to have a short trip to Taiwan. I was so afraid to be asked where the destination was and my parents also empha sized that talking with strangers was a dangerous behavior.
说到这个话题,我突然想起去年夏天发生的一些事情,当时我还是一名大学生。假期期间,我去台湾做了一次短途旅行。我很害怕被问到目的地在哪里,我的父母也强调和陌生人交谈是一种危险的行为。
However, the words didn't work for me. One day, I met an elderly woman standing in the right side of the road and her face was pale, hair was messy and hands weretrembling. She looked very anxious and nervous like losing her way. The curiosity inside pushed me to ask her what hap pened and then I said some words to ex press my care. Her pale face turned to the rosy cheek gradually, and she was a little shy to tell me that she came here with her family. When she returned from the washroom, she forgot the right di rection and lost contact with others. After listening the story, I was willing to offer a help and called the police to make an announcement. Then I waited with her until her family came and picked her up.
然而,这些话对我不起作用。一天,我遇到一位老妇人站在路的右边,她脸色苍白,头发凌乱,双手颤抖。她看起来非常焦虑和紧张,好像迷路了。内心的好奇驱使我问她发生了什么事,然后我说了几句话来表达我的关心。她苍白的脸渐渐地变成了玫瑰色的脸颊,她有点害羞地告诉我她是和家人来这儿的。当她从洗手间回来时,她忘记了正确的位置,失去了与别人的联系。听了这个故事,我很乐意提供帮助,并打电话给警察宣布了这一消息。然后我和她一起等她的家人来接她。
She gave me a high appraisal to my behavior and also said she was fortunate to know me in the awkward situa tion and invited me to have a dinner together. I was inspired by her words and had more motiva tion to give a hand to strangers.
她对我的行为给予了很高的评价,还说在这种尴尬的情况下认识我很幸运,并邀请我一起吃饭。我被她的话所鼓舞,更有动力去帮助陌生人。

在我的生活中有许多快乐的事情,我可以回忆。在他们中间,我想回忆一下我和一个小弟弟一起睡的那一天。这件事我至今记忆犹新。我是我父母唯一的女儿,当我听说我将有另一个兄弟姐妹时,我非常激动,我期待着“这个兄弟或姐妹会来的日子”。我推测和想象我和我的兄弟姐妹会做很多事情。我弟弟来到这个世界的那一天是我一生中最幸福的日子之一。那时我只有7-8岁,当我看到一个小天使在妈妈的膝上哭泣时,我成为了世界上最幸福的女孩。
For the first time I felt a strong urge to kiss this little fairy child. He was so adorable that I thanked God for the gift. My mother asked me to hold him and kiss him but I wasafraid to touch.him as I thoughit that might hurt him. I stayed in the hospital cabin for about 4-5 days till my mother and-brother came home. I came back home with the most pretious gift of the world.
我第一次强烈地想吻这个小宝贝。他是如此可爱,我感谢上帝的礼物。妈妈让我抱着他,吻他,但我不敢碰他。我想那可能会伤害他。我在医院的小屋里呆了大约4-5天,直到我的妈妈和弟弟回家。我带着世界上最珍贵的礼物回到家。
雅思口语技巧1:转折用though替换but
当你想说but来转折语气,不妨忍一下,然后在句子后面加个though,立马瞬间洋气了许多!例如:
例如exactly, basically, really这些副词可以加强或者缓和语气,更准确的表达我们的真实想法。例如:
雅思口语技巧3:使用从句增色语言
使用简单不易出错的同位语从句,例如:
People are now aware of the fact that many restaurants are not that hygienic.
Despite the fact that she was wearing a seat belt, she was thrown sharply forward.
雅思口语技巧4:多用强调句式,增加语法的广度
例如礼物类话题的万年句式:
It doesn't matter how expensive the gift is, it's the thought that matters.
雅思口语技巧5:用tend to替换most of
当你想说most of… 的时候,不妨改口成tend to,词汇量有没有显得多一些!例如:
Most Chinese people cook at home instead of dining out. 就可以说成Chinese people tend to cook at home.
雅思口语技巧6:避免过多使用very
口语答案里面呢,要有意识的尽可能抛弃very,一种方法是用pretty替代,另一种就直接用个更高级的形容词。例如:
That performance was pretty impressive.
I'm pretty sure about that.
还有instead of saying “very angry”, you can use the word “furious”.
那同理,如果我们想表达a little + adj.,也可以找到相应的更传神的形容词,例如:tipsy = a little drunk
雅思口语技巧7:形容词前加副词
这也是不错的应急措施哦,如果实在想不到高大上的形容词了,就用一个副词来加强一下情感,例如:
She's shockingly beautiful.
It's an outrageously expensive meal.
雅思口语技巧8:避免生硬地说NO
同学们在回答考官问题的时候,其实自己也觉得说个No很伤感情,那怎么能用比较不伤感情的语言表达同样的意思呢,下面的几句可以记一下:
-Does your school have diving classes?
-Not that I'm aware of, no.
(至少)我不知道。(潜台词:可能有,不过我不知道。)
-Have you ever had the experience when you watched the sky for a long time?
-Not that I can think of, no.
我想不到。(潜台词:可能有,不过我暂时想不到,暂时记不起来。)
-Do you love nature?
-Well, not really. I'm more of an indoor person.
注意,每一个yes or no之后,一定要加原因哦!
“I mean”可以用来解释刚刚自己抛出去的话,比如,在解释自己最不喜欢的电影的时候可以说:
That movie was so boring, I mean, nothing happened for the first hour!
这个也可以有很灵活的变体:and by… I mean…,比如:
He has a gorgeous wife, and by wife I mean mistress. (此例子完全为了解释用法…)
“You mean…?”该句式是为了跟考官check information,如果你不想用“I'm sorry?”来让考官重复问题,你完全可以用它来确定一下自己的理解是否跟考官的问题吻合。
注意:一般这样问,是已经理解了八九不离十,如果真的完全没听懂问题,请用以下句式:
Sorry, I didn't quite catch it. 不好意思没听清,能在重复一下子不?
Sorry, could you slow down, please? 不好意思您能把语速放慢点儿不?
Sorry, can you rephrase the question, please? 不好意思您能解释一下刚才的问题不?(就是问题里面有生词,此时无论考官repeat几遍问题,你也不可能懂,所以需要麻烦他rephrase改述一下问题)

雅思口语第二部分答案参考
I have made a decision that let my friend give up piano lessons. When I was in high school, my friend had to choose piano lessons because his parents were piano teachers. They spent a lot of time and money to help my friends learn piano in order to pass the family honor. However, I clearly know that my friend does not like playing the piano.

雅思口语高难度话题:描述美食
1. Do you like chocolate?
Yeah I love chocolate! I think it tastes great, and I have to control myself when I start eating it coz it’s just so difficult to stop, if you know what I mean! So yeah, you could say I’m a bit of a chocoholic!
是的,我喜欢巧克力!我觉得味道很棒,而且当我开始吃它的时候我必须控制自己,因为很难停止,如果你明白我的意思的话!所以,你可以说我有点巧克力味!
2. How often do you eat chocolate?
If I’m gonna be truthful with you I’d say pretty much every day, which I know is not the most healthy of habits, but I just can’t help it! You know, I always keep a stock of chocolate at home, and I’ll normally have some after lunch or dinner, cos it’s just a really nice way to finish off a meal.
如果我对你说实话,我几乎每天都会说,我知道这不是最健康的习惯,但我就是忍不住!你知道,我总是在家里储备一些巧克力,我通常在午餐或晚餐后吃一些,因为这是吃完一顿饭的好方法。
3. What’s your favourite flavor?
I guess it would have to be milk chocolate, simply because for me it tastes the best! I know that dark chocolate’s meant to be, like, the healthiest and all that, but it has a kind of bitter taste to it. And white chocolate’s a little bit too creamy for me, so I normally always go for milk chocolate.
我想那一定是牛奶巧克力,因为对我来说味道最好!我知道黑巧克力的意思是,像是最健康的和所有的,但是它有一种苦味。而白巧克力对我来说有点太奶油了,所以我通常都会吃牛奶巧克力。
4. Is chocolate expensive in China?
I think it really kind of depends on what chocolate you’re talking about, because there’s a lot which is made here in China that’s pretty cheap. For example, you can get a small bar of chocolate for only a few RMB, which I think’s pretty reasonable.
我想这要看你说的是什么巧克力,因为中国有很多便宜的巧克力。举个例子,你只需要几块人民币就能买到一小块巧克力,我认为这很合理。
But if you want really nice chocolate imported from places like Belgium and Switzerland, then it’s pretty expensive. I mean, you’re looking at, like, a hundred RMB for a box, something like that.
但是如果你想从比利时和瑞士等地方进口巧克力,那就太贵了。我的意思是,你看,比如说,一百元一个盒子,诸如此类。
5. When was the first time you ate chocolate?
Geez, I honestly can’t remember. I imagine it must have been when I was a small child, but I honestly have no idea what age I was. Let me see…um… If I was to hazard a guess, I’d say I was probably, like, 4 or 5, cos my parents were always really good to me as a child and I’m sure I must have persuaded them at some stage to let me try some!
哎呀,老实说我记不起来了。我想这一定是我小时候的事,但我真的不知道我是什么年纪。让我想想……嗯……如果我冒险猜一猜,我会说我可能是,比如4或5,因为我的父母在我小时候总是对我很好,我肯定在某个阶段说服他们让我试试!
6. Is chocolate popular in China?
Yeah it is, especially in the last few years. I mean, if you go into any supermarket now, you’ll see shelves of it! And if I think about all my friends and family here, just about all of them are big chocolate fans. So yeah, I think it’s pretty fair to say that a lot of people here in China enjoy eating chocolate.
是的,尤其是最近几年。我的意思是,如果你现在进入任何超市,你会看到它的架子!如果我想到我所有的朋友和家人,几乎所有的人都是大巧克力迷。所以,我认为很公平地说中国很多人喜欢吃巧克力。
雅思口语高分词组:
Shelf - 架子
just about all – almost all
I think it’s pretty fair to say that– 我觉得可以说…
If I was to hazard a guess– 如果我得猜测的话
at some stage - at some time
Chocolate bar - 巧克力棒
And all that - 如此等等
Normally always – 一般总是
Pretty much every day= almost every day
Stock – 贮存;储备 (If you have a stock of things, you have a supply of them stored in a place ready to be used.)
Chocoholic – someone who loves chocolate; 嗜食巧克力的人
技巧一:答案须清晰而详细
千万不要刻意用一些深奥或复杂的字来解释事情。不要以为这样可以加深考官的印象,一个简洁明了的答案绝对比一个复杂难懂的答案好。但要指出的是,简单的答案并不等于短答案,答案太短会使整个面试有太多的停顿,而考官也要大伤脑筋多想问题,你面临的问题也就会更多。
技巧二:凡事尽量说好的一面
在回答问题时应表现正面的态度。考生通常都应该诚实地回答所有问题,但有一些问题,回答的时候还是应该保持比较正面,尽量说好的一面。例如问你对自己家乡的印象,就算你真的认为非常不堪,也不应说出口。一句话,不要complain。
技巧三:熟用下列表达方式
Good morning. Good afternoon. I’m very well. Thank you. Pleased to meet you. I beg your pardon. What exactly would you like to know? Perhaps I can begin by telling you about… Recently, I’ve been studying at … Recently, I’ve been working at … I’ve been studying English for (1 year)... The reason I’m taking the test is because … Would you like to know about …? Before that I studied at … Before that I worded at … At the moment I’m studying at … At the moment I’m working at … Have I answered your question? Is there anything else you wish to know?
技巧四:把握考场节奏
首先,你尽可能地多说,让考官少说,但也不要走上极端,把两个人的交谈变成一个人的演讲,要注意分寸。我们每一个考生并不应期望着考官会问到我们已准备的问题,但是如果遇到,不要word-for-word地把自己准备好的答案滔滔不绝地背诵出来,给人一种明显在背书的感觉。这是一种最危险的做法,当他知道你在背诵事先准备好的答案,他会打断你而改变另一个话题。你可能会失去这个好机会而陷入困境。
巧妙地运用一些犹豫表达,好像在边想边说,同时也可以询问一两句考官的想法。另外,在交谈过程中,考生也会被问到自己不熟悉的话题。有些考生过于紧张,会出现冷场现象,这时千万不要沉默,没反应,或苦思冥想。这样不仅没有解决问题,反而给考官留下一种不会表达自己的印象。考生应尽量控制谈话,试着改变题目;对比较难回答的问题,尽量偏离它。
以上句型虽然简单,但一定要滚瓜烂熟。考官一问,你马上能不假思索地脱口而出。有些考生有这样的经验:明明平时运用娴熟的句型,等到考试时由于紧张,一下就忘了,把最简单的“I am from ShenZhen.”说成“I am come from ShenZhen.。”
雅思考试口语技巧一:风险转移法
顾名思义,就是把回答问题时的风险转移规避出去。在口语考试过程中,时不时会出现怪异刁钻的题目,或者说是自己根本没有准备过并不熟悉的题目。在此情况下考生究竟应该如何应对呢?是坦白的告诉考官自己不会呢?还是不分黑白乱侃一通呢?其实答案是也不是。
在此情况下,雅思考生应该机警的应对,采用风险转移法。以第一部分考到的“鸟”的题目为例。考官问道:“What are the most popular birds in China and what meanings do they have?” 其实先别提大多数考生是否知道在中国流行的鸟究竟有哪些,事实上应该连鸟的英文名字都叫不上来一两个,就更别提他们的含义了。这时候怎么办?总不能不回答问题吧?好办。考生可以坦然地告诉考官:“I don’t really know much about birds.”或者干脆说:“I don’t know.”但是记住,这永远不是问题回答的结束。接下来一定要说“but”。可是but之后又该说什么呢?胡侃瞎侃可以吗?完全可以,但是风险要转嫁出去。考生可以用一个简单的转移技巧:“but one of my friends is crazy about birds, and he used to tell me...” 你看这样子即使考生接下来乱侃一通,考官也不能指责考生,因为这些内容根本就是听别人说的嘛,要怪也要去怪别人吧。
所以说遇到难题不会回答的题,不要着急,一定要镇静。回答时可以侃,但是一定要侃的有理,侃的巧妙。天道小编提醒广大考生可以再考试前总结一下雅思口语考试题目,了解一下雅思口语考试介绍。
所谓昵称法就是给自己所要谈的人或物冠以昵称,以体现考生对英语更灵活的掌握和对问题更巧妙地回答而使之成为一个闪光点。就人来说,考生可以使用Mr., Miss或 Mrs.加上一个人的特点或者直接用一个描述性的名次短语来给一个人昵称。例如:Mr. Handsome 可以指一位相貌出众的帅哥, Mr. Big Nose 可以用来称呼一大鼻子哥们儿, Mr. Determination 可以形容以很有决心的人, Mr. “I don’t know”可以用来称呼凡事总是 “I don’t know”的哥们儿。遇到物品,例如谈一样有用的设备,我就会说“well, I am going to talk about my little girlfriend then…” 考官听到这里刚要纳闷怀疑我是不是没读懂题目,就听到我接着说到“…my iPod, a very trendy mp3 player and also a very useful electronic device, which I would always take along with me wherever I go.”此时,考官就会恍然大悟。“哦,原来这哥们儿在运用修辞,在玩幽默,还把自己的iPod当成了女朋友。呵呵,真是有心了。”当然还有很多其他的例子,考生完全可以充分发挥自己的想象力来使自己的回答更加生动有趣。
大多数中国考生要么往往因为自己根本没有思路不知道如何回答考官的问题,要么就是因为英文能力不足,无法用抽象的语言把自己的论证用流畅的正确的英文表达出来。可是话说回来,如果让任何一个考生用英文描述一个故事,应该还是很容易的。大家论证问题不行,讲个故事还是蛮可以的嘛。也就是说,如果考官让考生解释一个想象,阐述一个原因,考生完全可以用讲故事的方法代替。例如,在第二部分就考过describe one important decision的主题卡片。考生要回答这个决定是什么,在什么情况下作出这样的决定,为什么做出这样的决定,以及这个决定为什么重要。假如说我们讲这个重要的决定是去英国读书,有的学生可能就将英国的教育质量如何如何得好,在英国可以如何如何的提高英语,还有可以如何如何的开阔眼界。难道中国的教育质量就不好吗?在国内学习英文就比国外差了吗?去其他国家就不能开阔眼界了吗?从所有这些都看不出去英国去得那么必然。即使有道理,那么用英文又能流利的表达这些意思吗?可是如果采用讲故事的方法不但很容易用英文进行表达,而且也能够用自己真实的(或者是虚构的)经历来说明自己去英国留学是这么的必然。考生可以从自己去机场送女朋友或者男朋友去英国读书开始,描述当时离别时的痛苦因为自己很爱他/她,不能失去他/她,所以自己在那个时候如何promise him/her 无论有多么困难都一定也会去英国陪他/她,不让他/她在那边孤独寂寞。这就从一个侧面反映了自己做出的重要决定以及为什么。这样完全规避了长篇空洞的论述,而能够收到一种以情动人的效果。具体还可以参考一下第二部分重要决定哪个主题卡片的回答与讲解。
1月变题季雅思口语P2预测话题范文:foreign country you would like to work
Topic:Describe a foreign country you would like to work for short time.
You should say:
Where you would like to go
What kind of work you would like to have
When you would like to go
And explain why you want to work in that place.
Sample answer:
The country that I have always wanted to go but have not visited yet is Italy. I’ve been dreaming to visit Italy for more than 2-3 years. I’ll definitely visit the country as soon as my graduation is complete. Italy is in Southern Europe.
Rome, the largest city and the Capital of Italy has been the leading political and religious centre of the western civilization, serving as the capital of the both Roman Empire and the Christianity. I’d like to go there to see the museums, arts, streets, cultural and other attractions. Another reason I want to go there is to visit the Vatican City. I have read and heard about numerous stories and history about this country and witnessing them would be a great joy for me. There are plenty of things to see: arts, museums, Colosseum, Leaning Tower of Pissa, Roman Forum, Florence Cathedral, St. Peter’s Basilica, Milan Cathedral, Sistine Chapel, Piazza SanMarco, Circus Maximux and lots of other places I’d love to visit.
Italy was one of the most advanced territories once and had lots of historically significant places to visit. I’ve read about those places so many times and heard stories from many of my friends that visiting this country has become a major wish for me. And I’m pretty positive about visiting this country in next year.
1月变题季雅思口语P2预测话题范文:a gift you gave to others
Topic:Describe a gift that you recently gave to others
You should say:
When it happened
Who you gave it to
What gift you gave to the person
And explain why you gave this gift to others
参考答案:
The gift I gave to my younger sister recently is the one I would like to talk about. I gave her a cell phone recently. The model of the cell phone is Sony Experia Z and it has Android Operating System. This is a water resistant cell phone manufactured by Sony Mobile and is a hot one in the market. The cells phone cost me around 40 K and I had to save the money for the last 6-7 moths to present her the gift.
I knew that she had been wishing to buy a smart phone for a year but could not do so. I thought to buy her one in her next birthday and started saving the money. I saved almost 7-8 k each month and just before 3-4 days of her birthday, I bought the phone.
I felt really great after I gave the gift to my sister. That was an unexplainable pleasure, amusement, satisfaction that I felt after I saw her bewildering face after she opened the gift. She was so happy that I felt like that was a perfect gift for her. I am sure I would not have felt the same pleasure as I felt giving her the gift doing something else. She had been longing to own a smart phone and after receiving it from me she hugged me.
As I already told, from her conversation I knew that she wished to own a smart phone that she would be able to use internet and take quality photographs. From that day, I promised to myself that I would buy her one. And I wished to buy her a really good one. I could have bought her a phone for 10k but seriously I wanted to give her the best one that I can accommodate.
Tips for answering this Cue Card topic:
While talking about this cue card, keep in mind that you are to talk about a gift/ present you have recently gave to someone recently. So do not talk about a gift that you actually gave someone few years back.
Remember a gift you gave to someone recently and describe that event based on the questions asked in the supporting questions of this cue card topic. The gift can be merely a post card to an expensive one like house/ flat. Following are some gifts we usually give to others to help you plan for this cue card topic:
Flower
Mobile Phone
Diary
Story book
Fountain pen
Dress
Toy
Car
Flat
Money
Camera
Music player
Tabloid PC
Cycle
Post card
Photo album
Laptop etc.
You can actually think about any gift item which you usually give to others on occasions like birthday, marriage anniversary etc.
For this cue card topic, first mention what was the gift. Then mention whom you gave it (can be a family member, friend, relative, classmate, teacher, neighbor or a colleague). Then mention what was the occasion for that person who received that gift. Was it a birthday or simply a social visiting party, marriage day, celebration of promotion etc.? Also mention how long ago you gave it. You should mention that the occasion was only couple of months ago and this is the latest gift you gave to someone.
Whatever the gift was, you should be very fluent describing the event, gift and occasion of the gift. First mention what was the gift item and then mention to who you gave it to. Also mention if you were planning to give it for a long time or did you instantly bought this gift. After that give an approximate cost idea that you had to spend to buy this gift. Also mention the occasion for the gift. That can be a birthday gift or so or can be a surprise gift.
The final 2 questions require your elaborate discussion on the topic and expect you to talk about how you felt after giving this present. Simply mention that you were very much pleased to be able to give this present to that person and the excitement grew even more when you noticed the happiness about it. For the final question ‘and explain why you chose this gift’ say that you knew that s/he was in need of that/ was eagerly waiting to have one of these items/ would be very excited and happy to receive it. You can also mention, you had no previous preparation for buying a gift and you roamed in a gift shop and chose this one all of a sudden.
Your fluency and coherency in speaking is the most important parts of your speaking exam. Being able to cover the questions asked with the cue card topic in a real life conversational way would ensure a good score in your cue card section.
Since this cue card asks you to talk about a gift you gave to someone recently, you should relate the event to a recent occasion. Mention that you gave this gift only few weeks/ months ago and that you make your speaking exactly what is expected in the cue card topic.
If the gift is for a family member like younger sister, mother or father, mention how eagerly you were expecting to give this gift to him/her. After that mention how you managed to purchase the gift and from where you bought it. For the question “How you felt about it?” Mention that you bought this gift to make this person happy. This might not be an expensive gift but you bought it with good wished and cordial love. Finally say that, the recipient of this gift was very happy to have it and that made you feel really good. A gift is always a souvenir of good wishes and a mark for better relationship and you felt just happy to be able to give it to this person.
The final question “and explain why you choose this gift?” is a tricky one and you are expected give a convincing answer for this question. You have your own reasons and following are some of the helpful hints for you to answer this question:
1. I knew that s/he had a great desire for this and I thought this would be perfect opportunity to give it to him/her.
2. I was suddenly informed about this occasion and I had to pick a gift quickly. I went to the nearby gift shop and this particular gift caught my eyes.
3.This was a gift I was long longing to give her/ him. I knew s/he would be very happy to receive it and that’s why I bought it.
4.The gift was a shared one and three of our friends / colleagues decided that it was a good gift within our budget.
5. I knew that s/he loves this sort of gift and that’s why I decided to give it to her/ him.
1月变题季雅思口语P2预测话题范文:sth you shared with others
Topic:Describe something you have shared with others
-what it is
-when you shared
-how you shared it with others
And explain why you shared it with others
Sample answer:
Well, something I have shared with a couple is my SUV, I bought it last yeas, and it has been my handy commuting tool since I got the hang of it. But several months ago, I saw a PSA on telly saying that the air quality has been deteriorating and the pernicious effect on us would be the serious engulfing smog and devastating respiratory diseases and that was horrible. At the same time I knew the couple living next door who were also my colleagues would want to have a car because of peer pressure, you know, demonstration of one’s social wealth and hierarchy is also a social malaise, but they were worried about the financial constraint after that. So I decided to share my car with them and they just took responsibility of part of gas bill. Every morning they met me at the designated spot and I would drive them to workplace together.
With the reference to why shared my car with them, there are 2 points that I want to make, first, helping others to the best of one’s ability is a kind of Chinese traditional virtue to all strata of society. And luckily, I solved their problems effectively without compromising my quality of life; at most I lost some reins of that car. But it didn’t bother me. And it also saved the husband James from the wife’s nagging. He said he owed me a huge favor. Second, this car-pooling thing might be kind of my effort to protect the environment of the city, because I really got shocked about the levels of pollution in the vehicle-choked cities of China. And this has been exacerbated by people’s ignorance, which is just like the thin end of the wedge. So I take the initiative to reduce the use of my car and call on my colleagues to follow the trend. And I hope this trend would influence a larger population.
