【考官有話說】雅思口語最核心內(nèi)容Part2有多重要
雅思口語考試中，同學(xué)們看到的最多回憶就是PART2，為什么只有第二部分回憶呢?是因為part2在雅思口語中占有的特殊地位，以及考試獨(dú)白形式。具體原因，今天給大家具體分析一下。
【考官有話說】雅思口語最核心內(nèi)容Part2有多重要?
Part2的重要性IELTS Speaking: the importance of part 2
Students often ask me what will happen if they do badly in part 2 of the speaking test. Is it still possible to get a high score?
Yes, in theory, it is still possible to get a reasonably high score (maybe band 7) if you do badly in part 2, but you would need to give excellent answers in part 3. In practice, candidates rarely recover from a bad part 2; I don't remember anyone who made a mess of part 2 but suddenly did a fantastic part 3.
My advice: You should consider part 2 as the core of your speaking test. It's your best chance to show how good your English is, and it's the examiner's best chance to listen carefully to your use of language. In fact, it's probably the point at which most examiners get a clear idea of what score to give you.
1 理論上，如果你的PART2沒說好，PART3很厲害，那么還是可能拿一個好成績
2 實(shí)際上，如果你PART2沒說好，你基本上是很難恢復(fù)狀態(tài)去說好PART3.
3 所以我覺得口語最重要的部分是PART2，大部分考官會在PART2 大概知道要給你多少分
雅思口語是否要用復(fù)雜句 complex structures?
Students often worry that they need to use "complex structures" in the speaking test. But what is a complex structure?
This website explains the difference between simple sentences, compound sentences and complex sentences. You'll notice that compound and complex sentences are much easier than they sound! I'm sure you use them all the time without realising it.
Here's my advice: stop worrying about the need for "complex" grammar. Instead, focus on expressing your ideas well. As you explain your ideas in detail, you will naturally produce longer sentences which contain a variety of grammatical features.
不要擔(dān)心復(fù)雜的語法。關(guān)注怎么表達(dá)你的想法。如果你的想法很具體，你很自然就會出現(xiàn)很長的句子，然后句子有不同的語法特征。
說還是不說?雅思口語part2這些雷區(qū)千萬別踩
Dos你要這么干
1. take notes / write keywords(做筆記 / 記錄關(guān)鍵詞)
當(dāng)你審題的時候，你有一分鐘的時間準(zhǔn)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(tài)度，覺得太浪費(fèi)時間，我能記得我要說什么。但是，當(dāng)他們真正開始陳述的時候，他們往往會忘記某些關(guān)鍵點(diǎn)，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，因為它可以保持你的陳述一直切題，并且思路清晰。還有一點(diǎn)要提醒大家的就是，筆記的內(nèi)容一定是“關(guān)鍵詞”，因為你只有一分鐘，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(dāng)你被要求描述一個你去過的博物館，并且列舉了以下幾個問題：1. 博物館位于哪里? 2. 對于這個博物館，你印象最深的是什么? 3. 你去這個博物館的原因是什么?
當(dāng)你拿到這三個問題的時候，一定要保證你 cover 到每一個問題，怎么樣才能保證每個問題都不落呢?就是我下面要說的這一點(diǎn)。
3. point to point as you talk(依次陳述)
當(dāng)你陳述第一個問題的時候，就用手指或者用筆點(diǎn)著這個問題，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(diǎn)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(jīng)歷 OR “撒謊”)
當(dāng)你被問到自己的親身經(jīng)歷時，例如：描述一個你最喜歡的老師。當(dāng)然，如果你能清楚的記得你的某位老師固然很好。也就是說，不管被問到什么問題，只要能聯(lián)系到自己的親身經(jīng)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(xiàn)場的體育賽事，但卡片上就是這樣的問題，你別無選擇。怎么辦?這種情況下，你就只能“撒謊”了，捏造一個屬于你的故事，你可以 copy 你朋友曾告訴你的她的經(jīng)歷。在雅思考試中，沒有人會在意這個故事是否是真實(shí)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(kuò)展答案——調(diào)動感官)
直接舉例來說，當(dāng)你被問到：博物館位于哪里?你的回答：博物館在多倫多。
這未免有點(diǎn)太短了，你需要擴(kuò)展你的答案：博物館位于多倫多的市中心，臨近大學(xué)城，附近還有許多著名的餐廳……
不知道，大家有沒有看懂，其實(shí)很簡單，就是類似這樣的“廢話”，這就能體現(xiàn)出你駕馭語言的能力。說到這里，我想要說的就是，其實(shí)，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么去說。
要擴(kuò)展答案，還有一個非常重要的方法就是——調(diào)動感官。當(dāng)你要描述一個事物的時候，你腦海中浮現(xiàn)了該事物，然后使用你的感官去描述它：它看起來是什么樣子的?聞起來是什么樣子的?聽起來是什么樣子的?甚至，嘗起來是什么樣子的?
6. organize speech — intro, body, conclusion(組織語言——開頭、主體、結(jié)尾)
大家都知道，雅思考試 是一個標(biāo)準(zhǔn)化考試，它所考察的是考生運(yùn)用語言的能力。所以，如果你所陳述的內(nèi)容條理清晰、結(jié)構(gòu)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(jié)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(diǎn))
這一點(diǎn)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么，同時也可以讓你忘記緊張，更好的應(yīng)對考試。
8. use introductoy phrases(使用引導(dǎo)性短語)
當(dāng)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(guān)鍵的作用。它可以使你所要表達(dá)的內(nèi)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，為了避免緊張過度，盡量大聲一點(diǎn)說話，這樣可以減少緊張的程度。
雅思口語Part2物品類題庫：重要的禮物
Describe an important gift you had in your childhood.
You should say:
what it is
who gave it to you
what it looks like
and explain why it was important to you.
The first thing the pops into my head are my cats, Topsy and Turvy. They were my little bundles of joy whilst I was growing up.
When I was much younger I had another cat, called William. Sadly he was run over by a bus one day in front of our house. I can remember very vividly, one day I came home from school and my mum told me to look in the kitchen. I saw Topsy and Truvy and it was love at first sight. She told me when she had gone to collect them she only intended to buy one kitten, she put Topsy into the box and Turvy was mewing so loudly and scratching the box. She decided they were soul mates and couldn’t separate them.
I have no idea what kind of cats they were, all I can tell you is that they were painfully cute. Topsy was ginger and Turvy was ginger and white. Turvy had little white patches on his paws that made it look like he was wearing mittens. Topsy was a little furrier and made him look fat. One was shy and the other more outgoing. Like all brothers, they would sometimes fight and at other times cuddle up together.
Alas, they are no longer with us. Topsy passed away a few years ago and years finally caught up with Turvy finally as she bit the bullet last year. I knew that they would not live as long as me, but it’s still depressing to lose someone you love.

口語范文
Accounting is the subject that I find very interesting these days though I did not like it when I had to study it at my university level. I have finished my graduation in Computer Science major and we had Accounting part 1 and part 2 in our second year; 5th and 6th semesters. Thought Accounting was an important subject for us, I had very little interest in it. This was possibly because of my misconception that it is only important for Commerce and Business Studies students. I studied accounting subject only to pass my course and also missed few classes. Thus I failed to enter into the interesting world of accounting and that’s why disliked this subject.
會計是我覺得很有趣的科目，雖然我不喜歡它時，我必須在我的大學(xué)水平。我已經(jīng)完成了我的計算機(jī)科學(xué)專業(yè)的畢業(yè)，我們有會計第一部分和第二部分在我們的第二年;第五和第六學(xué)期。雖然會計對我們來說是一門重要的學(xué)科，但我對它幾乎沒有興趣。這可能是因為我的誤解，認(rèn)為它只對商科和商科學(xué)生重要。我學(xué)習(xí)會計學(xué)只是為了通過這門課，而且還缺了幾節(jié)課。因此，我沒有進(jìn)入有趣的會計世界，這就是為什么我不喜歡這個科目。
Science had always been major and I was never introduced to the accounting subject in my pre-university level. The teacher who took our accounting classes did not introduce us to the basic concept of accounting. Moreover, he went through chapters so quickly that I missed it completely. As a result, when the teacher explained the advanced concepts of accounting, I was completely lost. For all these reasons I was weak in accounting and this formed the disliking in me until the very recent time.
科學(xué)一直是我的專業(yè)，在大學(xué)預(yù)科階段，我從未接觸過會計學(xué)。上我們會計課的老師沒有給我們介紹會計的基本概念。而且，他很快地讀完了每一章，我完全錯過了。結(jié)果，當(dāng)老師講解先進(jìn)的會計概念時，我完全不知所措。由于所有這些原因，我在會計方面很弱，這形成了我的不喜歡，直到最近。
Well, the reason I like accounting these days is quite interesting. After I started working as a Software Engineer in a multinational company, I worked on various projects. A year ago I was assigned to a project that required me to develop an accounting software for an Australian company. Ironically I had to study many accounting books and tutorials to understand how I should implement the concepts and calculation in this software. I also attended few training sessions organised by our office related to accounting and banking concepts. Once I understood the basic and interesting part of this subject, I actually started enjoying it a lot. The project took around 8 months to be delivered to the client and I was kind of forced to study and discuss a lot of accounting concepts during this period. Once I started understanding the fundamental concepts and its application in the real world, this subject became one of my favourite subjects.
嗯，我最近喜歡會計的原因很有趣。當(dāng)我開始在一家跨國公司做軟件工程師之后，我參與了各種各樣的項目。一年前，我被分配到一個項目，該項目要求我為一家澳大利亞公司開發(fā)會計軟件。具有諷刺意味的是，我必須學(xué)習(xí)許多會計書籍和教程來理解如何在這個軟件中實(shí)現(xiàn)概念和計算。我也參加了我們辦公室組織的有關(guān)會計和銀行概念的培訓(xùn)課程。一旦我理解了這門學(xué)科的基本和有趣的部分，我就開始非常喜歡它。這個項目花了大約8個月的時間交付給客戶，在這段時間里我不得不學(xué)習(xí)和討論很多會計概念。一旦我開始理解基本概念及其在現(xiàn)實(shí)世界中的應(yīng)用，這門學(xué)科就成為我最喜歡的學(xué)科之一。
口語素材
I did not have the idea that Health and Hygiene would be the most irritating subject to me in my earlier days. I got familiar with the subject when I was promoted to my ninth grade in a local school here in Oregon. I did not like it because of many restrictions and bindings. In fact, it did not allow me to move after my will. But now the ideas have changed and I know how important it is to follow the rules and regulations. So, now this is a favourite subject of mine and I follow its directives in my life.
在我年輕的時候，我沒有想到健康和衛(wèi)生會是我最討厭的科目。我是在俄勒岡州當(dāng)?shù)氐囊凰鶎W(xué)校升到九年級時熟悉這門課的。我不喜歡它，因為它有許多限制和綁定。事實(shí)上，它不允許我隨心所欲地搬家。但是現(xiàn)在觀念變了，我知道遵守規(guī)章制度是多么重要。所以，現(xiàn)在這是我最喜歡的科目，我在生活中遵循它的指示。
Learning a foreign language (such as French) was highly difficult to me. I was introduced to this subject when I crossed my seventh grade in a reputed school here in Spain. I could not like the subject because it appeared difficult. The pronunciation, the spelling and the tones appeared irritating to me, and often I was punished for not writing the spellings correctly. But the necessity of a second language is highly important and I feel that I made a great mistake by ignoring the French language learning course in school. A second language helps to communicate better and raises the chances of success. So, I admire the subject now.
學(xué)習(xí)一門外語(如法語)對我來說是非常困難的。我是在西班牙一所著名的學(xué)校讀七年級時開始接觸這門學(xué)科的。我不喜歡這個題目，因為它看起來很難。它的發(fā)音、拼寫和語調(diào)似乎讓我很惱火，我常常因為拼寫錯誤而受到懲罰。但第二語言的必要性是非常重要的，我覺得我犯了一個很大的錯誤，忽視了法語學(xué)習(xí)課程在學(xué)校。第二語言有助于更好地溝通，提高成功的機(jī)會。所以，我現(xiàn)在很欣賞這個主題。
