常听见雅思考生吐槽雅思口语难,现在我们换位思考一下,来分享雅思考官的雅思口语考试心路历程。下面小编就和大家分享中国雅思考生口语考试中常犯的错误,来欣赏一下吧。
中国雅思考生口语考试中常犯的错误
1. 不要再叫我考官老师了!
在中国面对老师时表现尊敬是必要的。老师进教室时同学们都会站起来。要是在教室外边或者校区外边碰见老师的话,学生们一般来说还是会用“老师”这个称号对他打招呼。跟老师说话的时候学生要表现得很礼貌,很少会跟老师开玩笑。
我们不要忘记的事实是雅思考官不是你的老师,他们也不是中国人(有极少数的在国内出生的考官)而且在他们看来这样超级有礼貌的行为和态度就很奇怪。我在谈的行为是什么?比方说-考试开始的时候等考官先坐考生才坐或者在考试的过程中用太礼貌的说法跟考官交流,像"it's really a great pleasure to meet you teacher", "thank you teacher", "it was so nice talking with you teacher"这样的。考官会想"我不是他的teacher,他为什么一直这样称呼我。第一第二次遇到这样的考生那位考官会觉得很好笑,但是见到几百个这样太过于礼貌的考生后考官会感觉很烦。
我的意见:把考官像朋友一样看待。微笑,尽量让自己享受跟他谈话,要是你有机会跟他开玩笑的话那就更好。想像你在一家咖啡厅跟你最好的朋友聊天。我理解在考试的压力下我上述的意见可能不容易做到,不过我推荐你尽可能保持自信,尝试享受面试的过程。遇到那么多太礼貌很紧张的考生后,一旦考官遇到自信,有趣的你,他会感觉很高兴。你考完跟考官告别时他有可能会对你说"it was so nice talking to YOU!
想要减少你在考试中感觉的压力,看我第6和第10的意见。
2.车祸现场般雷同的雅思口语答案
要是问中国考生关于家庭的问题,他们中的100%会回答说“我很喜欢我的家人,我爸妈对我很好,我爷爷奶奶很明智,我可以从他们身上学到很多知识。问中国考生关于老师的问题,100%会说“教书是个很重要的事业。我很喜欢我的老师。他们都很专业,他们讲课很有趣”。
关于他们的老家“我很喜欢我的老家。那里很干净,空气很好,有很多树,还有很多漂亮的公园和景点。我的邻居也特别善良,跟他们沟通完全是一种享受”
关于老人“我们必须尊重老人,他们有很多经验,我们年轻人应该听他们的话。我很喜欢跟老人交流。”
关于人的性格“在我看来诚实是最重要的特点。我希望我全部的朋友都很诚实”
听中国雅思考生的话,你会以为我们住在天堂!这样的答案会导致两个问题。第一,在一天之内听20个考生同样的答案会让考官无聊死了。第二,那些答案有时候根本不是事实。我在中国认识过好多中国朋友。他们中的一些真的有很温暖的家,有的不是。有的很喜欢他们的老师,有的不是。我也认识过很多教师,有的很专业,有的不是。在我朋友中,很少喜欢跟老人交流,很少跟邻居沟通。那都很自然,跟我国家的情况差不多。
难以理解的是中国的雅思考生为什么觉得他们不能说实话。他们可能以为“如果考官认为我是一个来自好家庭,好地方,好学校,教育好,很有文化的人,他就会给我满分!”可惜的是他们不是考“好人考试”而是考英语考试。唯一考到好成绩的方法就是让考官知道你会很流利地用英语谈话。
考官可能去过你的老家,他可能会想“那里的PM2.5在200以上,在那里一棵树我都没有看过”。他不会理解你为什么不说实话,可能会觉得你的词汇量不够高。
我的意见:在口语考试中尽量自己说实话。还记得我的第一个意见吧?把考官想朋友看。要是你跟朋友在一起一直夸奖你家人,你老师,你诚实,你生活中的所有事情,他肯定会觉得你喝醉了。不要担心跟考官谈你不太喜欢的事情,特别是如果那些事情是其他考生都会赞美的。让考官知道你是一个正常人吧,跟其他的机器考生不一样。
3. 同学你为什么没有自己的想法?
当被问关于自己看法的问题时(in your opinion......, what do you think........, if it were up to you.....,那样的)很多考生只会谈事情的现状。比如说
"How do you think foreign languages should be taught in schools? Should teachers spend more time on speaking,or on listening and reading? 在你看学校应该怎么教学生外语?他们应该都重视口语,还是听力和阅读?
很多考生只会用这样的答案回答上边的问题-"In China, teachers always focus onreading, they don't spend much time on speaking."
这个答案跟这个问题不配。我也不太清楚考生为什么一直会犯这样的错误,但是我认为可能是因为他们听不清楚问题。考生有时候会听问题里的几个词,比如“foreign languages" 和"taught in schools"可是忽略其他的关键词比如"How do YOU think”和"should".
我的意见是这样的:你在口语考试的第三部分会被问关于你看法的问题,在第三部分因为问题比较难,考官能两三次解释问题的意思。你开始回答之前要是不清楚的话先跟考官确认一下问题的意思。你可能觉得让考官两三次给你解释问题的意思很尴尬,不过浪费一分钟讲没有意义的答案就更糟糕。
4. 过于现身说法 / 把自己做例子
口语考试第三部分要求学生谈一些普遍的事情。那些事情跟第二部分的主题都有关。考官可能会问关于你国家的事情,可能关于你的城市,可能关于你的看法。他的目的是测试你谈到普遍事情的能力。举例子:
Do people in your city prefer ridingbicycles to driving? 你城市的市民更喜欢骑自行车还是开车?
Do you think people these days are moreinterested in art than people in the past? 你认为现代人还是过去的人对艺术有感兴趣?
Do you think there should be more museums in your city? 你认为你城市应该有更多博物馆吗?
很多考生的错误是,回答上述的这些问题是他们一直会把他们自己做例子。'take myself as an example'是他们最常用的一句话。问题就是考官想确认你会谈普遍事情还是只会谈关于你自己的事情。无论讲什么外语,谈普遍的事情比谈到关于我们自己的事情更难。要是你不表现你谈普遍事情的能力,你就得不到好成绩。
我的意见:你在准备考试时,经常跟你的语言同伴(看第10个意见)练习谈普遍事情或者各种现象。你可以在网上找一些话题。我推荐这个网站- http://iteslj.org/questions/
5. 把home和family犯混
口语考试第一部分经常有关于你“home"的问题。很多考生不理解英语的'home'只是你住的房子并不包括你家人。考官会问"Do you like your home"这样的问题,考生就会在脑海里把问题译成“我喜欢我家吗?”。然后考生会谈他喜欢他爸妈的很多理由。
我关于这个错误的意见很简单:你被问关于你"home"的问题时你只要谈你房子里家具,你房子的设计,你对你房子的态度,房子的地点方不方便等等。不要谈你家人。
6. 浪费考试前的几个小时看书或者一次又一次重复背他们已准备好的回答
在某一场国内的雅思考试中心外边你会看到一大队等着口语考试的考生。他们在那里做什么呢?听英文广播吗或者播客吗?不是。一起用英语聊天为了准备吗?还是不对。给他们外教或者外国朋友打电话吗?又不对。其实他们都纷纷看雅思课本或者再三再四读一些模拟回答。这样的准备方法不仅让他们更加紧张而是浪费他们的时间。
用一种外语讲话是一种能力,读外语也是一种能力,但是那两种能力的关系不大。花很多时间读书能提高你的阅读水平,但并不会提高你的口语水平。等着参加游泳赛的游泳员在比赛开始的一两个小时不会看很多关于游泳的书。他们会在热身游泳池里慢慢地游泳为了热身。等着表演的歌唱家也不会在读关于唱歌的书。他们会唱很多不同的声调来打开自己的嗓子。我的重点就是,要是你口语考试在一两个小时之内开始的话那你最好练习一下你他妈的口语口语口语,而不是你的阅读!
我的意见:要是你有一个会英语的很好朋友或者恋人的话,无论是外国人还是中国人,请他陪你到考试中心。你等着进考试中心的时候跟他用英语聊天。20-30分钟就够。要是你的朋友当天不能陪你的话那打电话交流也行。如果你朋友群真的没有会英语的那就对其他等着考试的考生搭讪。用英语对他说“Hey, let's practice speaking in English for a few minutes while we're waiting.”他们一开始可能会觉得尴尬,但是你们的会话也会帮助他们准备。你应该考试开始提前20分钟进去考试中心。在那间教室等着的时候,我推荐你听你最喜欢的英文歌或者一些简单的英文广播或者播客。
7. 反复谈到他们让中国壮大的贡献和愿望
有的考生无论被问什么问题,他们还是想办法谈到他们“让我国增强的愿望".
考官:你是学什么专业的?
考生:我学法律
考官:你为什么选这个专业?
考生:因为我觉得法律很重要。我毕业以后能成为律师。那我就可以帮我们的中国增强。
考官:你周末做什么?
考生:我做兼职。
考官:在哪里?
考生:在肯德基
考官:你为什么在肯德基做兼职?
考生:因为我觉得我们的鸡肉能给我们中国的孩子营养。他们长大以后可以帮我们国家增强。
考官:你有什么兴趣爱好?
考生:我喜欢打篮球。
考官:为什么?
考生:因为跟别人锻炼身体和交流能让我们国家更加和谐。
我的意见:上边的例子可能有一点过分不过这样的考生真的存在。你得注意,这是一个英语考试,不是入PARTY的面试。
8. 一直用中国特色社会主义的英语
有一些人以为我们世界只有两种英语,美式英语和英式英语。这当然是一个谬误。澳洲,牙买加,加拿大,爱尔兰等等都不讲英式或者美式英语。英语其实有好几百个不同类型,都有不同口音和土话。我最近发现过一种新的英语。这种英语被本人称为“中国雅思考生英语”。讲“中国雅思考生英语“的人会一直用好多没有意义的语句。这些语句虽然可能不是不对,但一个英语母语的人哪怕活到500岁从来不会用。下面有几个例子-
With the development of society /science and technology / the economy etc etc etc
...to exercise my logical thinking andcritical thinking
our China
to exercise myself / to relax myself (这两个不仅是奇怪还有语病)
我的意见:避免用我上述提到的几句话。不依靠在国内出版的英文课本,都看国外的书,电视和电影。都跟你的语言同伴交流(看第10个意见)。
9. 保持很呆的眼神
考试的时候面对一位严肃的外国考官你可能会感觉很紧张。那就是一个很自然,难以避免的问题。面对考试的压力,人人都会感觉紧张。很多人,感觉紧张的时候不会微笑。这就是一个问题。根据很多科学研究的报告微笑能释放我们的压力。在口语考试中,自信很重要。要是你不能放松一点,一直感觉好紧张,你的出错率会增加,你的口语不会跟平时一样流利。说到底你可能得不到你值得的成绩。
我的意见:微笑!尽可能跟考官眼神交流。
好吧,吐槽了那么多雅思口语考试中中国考生的一些口语错误,来说说我对大家准备雅思考试的一点建议:要是你想得到高的口语成绩的话,你应该有一个高的口语水平,为了提高你的口语水平你应该多练习口语,为了练习口语我推荐你找一个或者几个可靠的语言同伴。真的,多交流才能意识到自己的口语表达错误,及时纠正,期待各位考鸭在今后的雅思口语考试中有更好的表现。
2020年9-12月雅思口语part2&3答案:第一次外语和别人交谈
Describe a time when you first talked to others in a foreign language.
You should say:
When this happened
Who you talked to
What you talked about
And explain how you felt about this experience
The time I remember quite clearly when I spoke in a foreign language for the first time properly was when I was introduced to a new foreign teacher in university. I had, to be honest, spoken English, beforehand, but this was the first “real” time I had had a conversation with a native speaker, so I’d like to talk about this. I recall that she was quite friendly and supportive and spent the entire first class giving us lots of opportunities to speak and talk about ourselves, our ambitions, our family and all sorts of things like this – personal things. I found this quite exciting in a way, although I was quite nervous because I was not used to her pronunciation and so I had to concentrate to listen. But I was pleasantly surprised at how much English I could speak when I was asked questions, and the more I spoke the more I felt confident about speaking more! She then put us in groups of four other students and we had little tasks to complete – questions and answers, oral English tasks. She came round to each table and asked us about our answers and chatted to us more. I must say that I quite enjoyed this. Although it wasn’t really any different to what my Chinese teachers had done in English lessons, I found it somehow more exciting because it was a native speaker. It was like an opportunity to show and test my language skills with someone who really did speak that language as their first language and I really liked this chance. From this day onwards I became a lot more confident in speaking English, and I often found this teacher in her breaktimes and made an effort to hang out with her a bit, spend a bit of time drinking tea with her, showing her the local sights, and using this opportunity to practice my language skills. So, I will always remember this first day when I got to speak English with this native speaker, and thereafter becoming good friends with her. So, all in all, I felt great about this whole experience.
Part3
1. What difficulties do young people in your country have in learning foreign languages?
Most study pretty hard and are good at grammar and language in the context of tests, written tests, reading tests, listening tests, for example. But they find the most difficulty in speaking in natural situations.
2. Why do you think some people are very enthusiastic about learning another language and other children are totally uninterested?
Well, some people believe this because it’s basically true! It’s a lot easier to learn to speak than to write in a foreign language. This is partly because if you are writing you usually have to control your grammar a lot more strictly than if you are speaking. Sentences in spoken language are usually shorter, less complex, and involve less complicated vocabulary. Also, if you are writing in a language you usually have to write more formally, and use a different register of vocabulary than if you are merely speaking. Written language is often slightly more formal, too, which again, involves a richer and higher range of vocabulary and lexical use than if you are just having a spoken conversation. So, in general, there are a few reasons why people are correct in saying that it is more difficult to write in another language than speak that language.
3. Is it easier for people to learn a new language when they are young or when they get older?
Definitely when they are younger! At least that is usually the case. Young people have more energy, more enthusiasm and generally pick up new things faster. It’s as simple as that really. At least most of the time. However, there are some older people who also learn fast, because they have previous experience they can build on.
2020年9-12月雅思口语part2&3答案解析:有点贵的活动
Describe an activity you attend occasionally which is a bit expensive.
You should say:
What the activity is
Where you attend it
Why it is expensive
And explain how you feel about this activity
The one thing I do from time to time that I think is a bit expensive, is going to see music concerts of the bands I like. There are only a few bands I really love, but whenever they play in Beijing, or another city that isn’t too far away, I definitely go to see them. They’re almost always in the big sports stadiums in the city. Tickets for concerts in stadiums are always quite expensive, especially the big-name bands and most popular pop groups. The shows are usually hugely impressive, with amazing light displays, incredible stage sets and performers that are top class, wearing incredible costumes and dancing and singing like nobody else could. And, of course, the sound quality is state-of-the-art and really impressive. So, I always think it’s worth the money to get a good seat or place in the audience for these shows, and I am happy to spend the money on doing so. I think the feeling of being in a big, live, concert, especially if it’s a band you know who will sing all the songs you know and love, and you know all the words too, is an amazing experience. There’s nothing like it. You can feel the adrenaline and sense of excitement in your body, like an actual physical sensation of tingling and rushes through all your nerves, especially when you reach the crescendos of the music or the main verses or choruses of a song you love. I’d say this kind of experience is unrivalled, and I can’t overstate just how much I love being in a live music venue, the bigger the better, listening and singing along to my favourite bands. Obviously, these gigs are expensive, because they’re famous bands!
Part3
1. Are there any other activities that are expensive as well?
There are quite a few activities that people do that cost quite a lot of money these days. If you get lessons in sport, music or art, outside of school or college, then these can be expensive. Some people attend extra art lessons or music lessons and these cost quite a bit especially if the teacher has a strong reputation or the school is a reputable one. Going out to eat in fancy restaurants, is also, of course, quite expensive. Hobbies like shopping for clothes and fashion brands – these are expensive activities. In fact, many people who live in cities today have to spend money almost as soon as they leave the door of their homes! So many things are expensive in my city. With, perhaps, the exception of public transport and some local street snacks!
2. Why are some sports really expensive?
Some sports require a lot of training and equipment. As an example: compare playing basketball with your friends in the playground with doing archery or fencing or some martial arts. When it comes to playing basketball, all you need is a net and a ball and a few friends, and maybe some decent enough sports shoes! But, if you take up a martial art, for example, you need an instructor, a special place to train with a matted floor, special clothes and so on. The same goes for other sports like fencing – you need to invest in coaching and training as well as specialized equipment in a special place. So, you see, that some sports can get quite expensive based on this – training, coaching, equipment and the place where the sport is done. And, needless to say, training and coaching doesn’t come cheaply, because trainers must make money, and the better and more skilled the trainer, the more they will charge.
3. What are the advantages and disadvantages of being rich?
There are lots of advantages and disadvantages – I could list many on both sides. But, the most significant ones in my opinion are – if you’re rich you can afford anything and everything and don’t have to worry about struggling for anything financially. This must be a great liberation and give you an amazing feeling of relaxation too. You also don’t have to answer to one boss, or work for a company long hours, or spend most of your life at work and not with your family. That’s another plus point about being rich. On the downside, if you’re rich, you are more inclined to have other worries – you can be spoilt, lack ambition, lack direction and perhaps even get involved in simply wasting time and not bettering yourself, or self-improving in any way because you’re just comfortable doing whatever you want when you want.
4. Compared with men, do women are more likely to buy expensive things?
I think men can be often a bit more relaxed about certain types of spending, yes – especially when it comes to clothes or jewelry or things like this. I don’t think men care as much about fashion, looks or image, or having a fancy hairstyle or branded jewelry, but also I think this is changing and there are a lot of men, especially in big cities, who also care about image and spend a lot of money on expensive watches or even sporty fashion brands. So, perhaps these days, it’s a bit more equal than it was in the past, I’m not entirely sure.
