雅思口語part2話題:一門語言

雅思口語Part 2&3考官範文:想學的語言(除了英語)

Describe another language (not English) that you would like to learn.

You should say:

What language it would be

How you would learn it

What equipment or facilities you would need to study this language

And explain what difficulties you think you would have / why you would choose this language.

Ok right then, well there are actually quite a few languages that I would like to learn, but probably the one I’d like to learn Most is French, partly because I think it sounds really nice, and also because France is a country that I’d really love to visit sometime. And so if was able to speak French, I would then be able to converse with the locals, which I think would give me a much better understanding of the country and also make my time there a lot more interesting and enjoyable.

Anyway, as for how I would learn it, well I guess first of all I would try and find a decent self-study course on the Internet. And as well as that, I suppose another thing I would do would be to look for a teacher, preferably a native speaker if possible, because I would then be able to get feedback on what I was doing right and wrong. And having a native speaker as my teacher I think would be extremely beneficial in terms of developing a good accent.

And regarding what equipment I would need to study French, well thinking about it, I suppose it would be more or less the same as what I’ve been using for learning English, so basically a laptop and mp4 player, with which I would be able to download various things like podcasts and other learning materials onto.

So that’s probably how I would learn the language, and finally, with regard to what difficulties I think I might encounter, well firstly, I imagine I might have quite a bit of difficulty with the pronunciation, as it’s so different to Chinese. I mean, there are so many sounds in French which we don’t have in our language, so I’m sure it would take an extremely long time to speak it well. And besides the pronunciation, I guess it might also be pretty difficult mastering the grammar, simply because every language has its own set of grammar rules, and I’m sure French is no exception!

So yeah, I suppose that’s about it then. Thanks for listening!

Notes:

decent = good

more or less = 差不多

So yeah, I suppose that’s about it then = 所以嗯,差不多就這些吧!

雅思口語part2描述一個會說第二外語的人

首先拿到話題卡需要做的就是看看具體的話題及話題卡內容:

Describe a person you know who can speak a second language

You should say:

Who this person is這個人是誰

How you know them你是怎麼知道他的

What language they speak他能說什麼語言

And explain why you think this person can master this language解釋爲什麼你認爲這個人能夠掌握這種語言。

看過上面的話題卡內容之後,其實需要怎麼回答,考生心裏應該十分清楚了,主要就是圍繞上述四點來進行描述。而對於大部分考生來說此時最困惑的莫過於找什麼素材來應對。下面爲大家分析一篇優秀的範文:

Ok right then, well there are actually quite a few people I know who can speak a second language well, but the person who stands out the most is one of my English friends called Nick, so he’s who I’m gonna(很地道且口語化的單詞) talk about.(Who this person is這個人是誰)簡單幾句話說明了這個人是誰。

And uh, I got to know him at university, because we’re on the same course, which is Modern Chinese. And um, I find it incredible just how quickly he’s managed to learn it! Because he couldn’t actually speak a word of Chinese before the course began, you know, he started pretty much from scratch, and in the space of about two years, he can now speak it pretty fluently. It’s amazing! 因爲大學的時候,上現代漢語的課程認識的……同時回答了“How you know them你是怎麼知道他的”和“What language they speak他能說什麼語言”。

Um…and as for how he’s been able to learnt it so well, uh.. I guess there a few reasons, one of which is that he always takes every opportunity to speak the language, you know, he’s never afraid of making mistakes or anything. So he’ll always try answering the questions in class, and he hangs out a lot with Chinese friends in his free time. Another thing is that he’s also got a very strong curiosity for the language, which I noticed once when I saw him reading a story by the writer Lu Xun. Because it wasn’t something that we had been told to read, you know, it was simply out of his interest in Chinese that he decided to read it, and that made me realize why he had become so good at the language.

And um…I’m just trying to think if there’s anything else to say…uh... oh yeah, I’ve also noticed that he listens really attentively to native speakers when he’s talking with them. You know, he’s not just focused on things that he’s trying to say. He’s also listening extremely carefully to people talking around him. And he picks up an incredible amount just by doing that. So yeah, I’d say these are probably the main reasons as to why he speaks the language so well, and I feel really lucky to have him as a friend, because I’ve been able to learn a lot from him!上述兩個段落分別講述他是如何學習的以及爲什麼認爲這個人能夠掌握這種語言的解釋。這裏的素材很豐富,一般的考生可能根本無法去表達,甚至都不曾想到這樣的素材。所以最重要還是考生的積累。

而上述這些內容,其實也可以運用在其他關於語言的話題上,並非一個素材對應一個話題,而是一個素材對應多個話題。上面的內容中如果細心的考生其實可以發現很多短語句式是值得積累,下面爲大家簡單彙總一些:he started pretty much from scratch – 他差不多從零開始;in the space of… - 在… 期間內;he listens really attentively – 全神貫注地聽;I’m just trying to think if there’s anything else to say – 我在想還有什麼話可以說…;pick up –(不費力地)學會;She sounds exactly like a native speaker.;She can speak the language effortlessly.

說還是不說?雅思口語part2這些雷區千萬別踩

Dos你要這麼幹

1. take notes / write keywords(做筆記 / 記錄關鍵詞)

當你審題的時候,你有一分鐘的時間準備。記住,一定抓住這一分鐘的時間,做筆記!很多考生都對做筆記持有懷疑態度,覺得太浪費時間,我能記得我要說什麼。但是,當他們真正開始陳述的時候,他們往往會忘記某些關鍵點,加之緊張的心情,通常就開始“胡言亂語”,也就是我們所說的跑題。所以,筆記是非常重要的,因爲它可以保持你的陳述一直切題,並且思路清晰。還有一點要提醒大家的就是,筆記的內容一定是“關鍵詞”,因爲你只有一分鐘,你不可能寫下你所說的所有句子。

2. cover every point(涉及卡片上所有的問題)

舉個“栗子”:當你被要求描述一個你去過的博物館,並且列舉了以下幾個問題:1. 博物館位於哪裏? 2. 對於這個博物館,你印象最深的是什麼? 3. 你去這個博物館的原因是什麼?

當你拿到這三個問題的時候,一定要保證你 cover 到每一個問題,怎麼樣才能保證每個問題都不落呢?就是我下面要說的這一點。

3. point to point as you talk(依次陳述)

當你陳述第一個問題的時候,就用手指或者用筆點着這個問題,說完第一個問題,再順移到第二個問題,以此類推。雖然聽起來,這樣有點傻,但在考試的時候,這不失是一個好的方法。

4. use personal experience or lie(陳述親身經歷 OR “撒謊”)

當你被問到自己的親身經歷時,例如:描述一個你最喜歡的老師。當然,如果你能清楚的記得你的某位老師固然很好。也就是說,不管被問到什麼問題,只要能聯繫到自己的親身經歷都是極好的!但是,如果你從來沒有去聽過音樂會,沒有觀看過現場的體育賽事,但卡片上就是這樣的問題,你別無選擇。怎麼辦?這種情況下,你就只能“撒謊”了,捏造一個屬於你的故事,你可以 copy 你朋友曾告訴你的她的經歷。在雅思考試中,沒有人會在意這個故事是否是真實的,它所考察的是你駕馭語言的能力,你是否能將故事說的精彩。

5. expand — use senses(擴展答案——調動感官)

直接舉例來說,當你被問到:博物館位於哪裏?你的回答:博物館在多倫多。

這未免有點太短了,你需要擴展你的答案:博物館位於多倫多的市中心,臨近大學城,附近還有許多著名的餐廳……

不知道,大家有沒有看懂,其實很簡單,就是類似這樣的“廢話”,這就能體現出你駕馭語言的能力。說到這裏,我想要說的就是,其實,你的口語水平比你想象中的要好很多,你不是不會說,只是沒有人告訴你怎麼去說。

要擴展答案,還有一個非常重要的方法就是——調動感官。當你要描述一個事物的時候,你腦海中浮現了該事物,然後使用你的感官去描述它:它看起來是什麼樣子的?聞起來是什麼樣子的?聽起來是什麼樣子的?甚至,嚐起來是什麼樣子的?

6. organize speech — intro, body, conclusion(組織語言——開頭、主體、結尾)

大家都知道,雅思考試 是一個標準化考試,它所考察的是考生運用語言的能力。所以,如果你所陳述的內容條理清晰、結構完整,不得高分是不可能的。與寫作文同理,一個擁有開頭、主體和結尾的口語答案,必然會讓考官耳目一新。

7. imagine the object, person, place(想象——事物、人物、地點)

這一點前面也有提到,意思就是要想象你所要陳述的對象,這樣你就更能清晰的知道你想要說什麼,同時也可以讓你忘記緊張,更好的應對考試。

8. use introductoy phrases(使用引導性短語)

當你想要引入你所要陳述的主題的時候,你可以使用如下短語:

I want to talk about …

I'd like to talk about …

I'm going to talk about …

9. use transitions(使用承接詞)

承接詞在口語和寫作中都起到了非常關鍵的作用。它可以使你所要表達的內容更具有條理性。

例如:

First of all, secondly, thirdly, finally

First, then, next, after that, finally

10. speak loudly(聲音洪亮)

在口語考試的過程中,你不會想要考官感覺你謙虛、害羞,你肯定想要考官覺得你很自信。所以,爲了避免緊張過度,儘量大聲一點說話,這樣可以減少緊張的程度。

Don'ts千萬別這麼幹

1. memorize answers(回憶事先準備的答案)

很多考生在備考的階段,都會利用“機經”,列舉出很多可能會考到的問題,然後寫下他們想說的話,並且花很多時間去背寫下的段子。不得不說,這真的不是一個好的方法,不是說大家不能去寫,在備考的前期,如果你真的什麼都說不出來,可以先採用這個方法。但是,慢慢的,你要學會記錄關鍵詞,而不是去背之前寫下的段子。

而且,考官很容易就會察覺你是現場發揮還是在背書。一旦,考官發現你是在背誦,你的分數立馬就會被判定的非常低。

備考階段,你要做的不是背口語段子,而是大量的記單詞,並且學會熟練運用這些單詞,尤其是形容詞、副詞。詞彙量有了,就不用擔心沒話說了。

2. write too much(記錄過多)

要知道,你只有一分鐘的時間來準備。在這短短的一分鐘裏,你不但需要考慮清楚你要怎麼說,還要做筆記。所以,你沒有時間寫很多東西,每個點你只需要記錄 1-2 個單詞就可以了。

3. panic(緊張、害怕)

雅思考試相對於國內考試來說,可能更會使考生緊張,原因有很多種:費用高、難度大、機會難得等等,很多時候,考生都有背水一戰的感覺。這就更會造成內心的恐慌。

有一個非常簡單的方法就是——深呼吸——這會減輕你緊張的程度。或者,在口語考試之前,你可以到外面走一走,這同樣會分散你的注意力,減輕緊張。

4. focus on one point(只專注陳述一個點)

在 Part 2 的考試中,你至少要 cover 到 3 個點。所以,不要把時間都花費在一個問題上。因爲,考試是有時間限制的,時間到了,考官就會叫停。當然,你沒有說到的問題就會沒有分數,所以,一定要把握好時間。

5. use boring words(使用“無趣”詞彙)

這裏要提到的就是詞彙的問題。不要張口閉口就是 good, bad 這樣的詞彙。要學會豐富自己的語言,很多非常好的形容詞 excellent, fantastic, amazing, tremendous, extremely … 都可以運用到你的段子裏。

6. give short answers(回答過短)

前文有提到要擴充你的答案,意思就是答案不能過短。如果,每個點你都兩句話帶過,連半分鐘都用不到。那麼接下來的一分半鐘,你和考官都是沉默的,你想想,那會是一種什麼感覺。

7. go off topic(跑題)

不論是口語還是寫作,這都是非常嚴重的失誤。跑題,一定是絕對不可以容忍的。怎樣避免跑題,前面已經說過,這裏就不贅述了。

8. worry about your accent(過於擔心口音問題)

口音問題是很多考生非常頭疼的事情,有時就是因爲感覺自己發音不好,就不願意張口說英語。但這樣只會惡性循環,每個人都會有口音,只要能讓人聽清楚你要表達的內容,並且所用表達的語法正確,就可以了。當然,雅思口語考試 7 分,甚至 8 分都是允許出現少量錯誤的。大家不要過於擔心。

最後,非常重要的一點就是,一定要多加練習,怎麼練習呢?

練習講 2 分鐘英語,2 分鐘將一件事說清楚。對於很多人來說,獨自說 2 分鐘的話是很困難的。所以,首先可以從 30s 開始,然後增加到 1 min,最後增加到 2 min。這會是一個漫長的過程。但是,對於這方面能力較差的考生,一定要堅持練習,語速也要適中。
