時間&精力--雅思口語復(fù)習(xí)投放有技巧
自雅思考試設(shè)立以來,口試一直是使諸多考生覺得"難"以啟齒的一項:一方面,雅思口試的話題范圍都非常生活化。從簡單的自身學(xué)習(xí)或工作介紹,到被認(rèn)為是最難的科學(xué)發(fā)明、環(huán)保,都沒有超出日常討論的范圍,也不包括任何專業(yè)性的內(nèi)容,就這點來說,雅思口試和托福TSE或其它同類口試相比,要簡單得多;但同時,雅思口語的涉獵面之廣,卻又使考生在復(fù)習(xí)時感覺非常棘手。
如果每個話題都要輪著復(fù)習(xí)過來的話,復(fù)習(xí)一圈下來在時間和精力上的浪費都堪稱huge。可悲的是,哪怕全部復(fù)習(xí)過了,考試的時候還有可能遇上頭腦空白,不知所云的情況;抑或雖然考到了復(fù)習(xí)的內(nèi)容,但考試的內(nèi)容和復(fù)習(xí)的范圍相比,只是冰山之一角,考生為之耗費的時間精力,卻如湖面下的冰山,大都湮沒于無形,這種復(fù)習(xí)效率的"性價比"實在太低。
面對時間和精力的雙重壓力,唯有正確運用復(fù)習(xí)策略方能運籌于帷幄之中,決勝于千里之外;唯有將復(fù)習(xí)與應(yīng)試技巧相結(jié)合方能在口試時應(yīng)對如滔滔江水,連綿不絕。筆者分別就復(fù)習(xí)時間的把握和精力的投放上作一番探討,望能助考生在復(fù)習(xí)的苦海上找到希望的燈塔,在絕望的邊緣看到勝利的曙光。
一、復(fù)習(xí)時間的把握
考生在培訓(xùn)結(jié)束到考試的間歇階段一般應(yīng)控制在一到二個月左右。間隔短了可能復(fù)習(xí)不夠充分,心理上容易產(chǎn)生緊張焦慮;間隔長了可能出現(xiàn)效率低下、惰性太大的現(xiàn)象,正如背單詞強調(diào)的"一而作,再而衰,三而竭"的定律,口語復(fù)習(xí)也應(yīng)趁熱打鐵,力求在短期內(nèi)"直搗黃龍",一舉攻破話題重點,在考試之前保持清醒的頭腦。
當(dāng)然,除了整體把握時間之外,還應(yīng)將復(fù)習(xí)時間量化,具體落實到每一天。每天考生都應(yīng)辟出一定的時間進行口頭操練,在小時數(shù)上應(yīng)秉持"貪多嚼不爛"的原則,根據(jù)個人承受能力選擇時間,建議在一到兩小時左右。因為口試和其他項目不同,是考生和考官的互動過程,因此在自我演練的時候應(yīng)該克服自身惰性,按照考試流程做課件和教材上的練習(xí)。
考生可根據(jù)課件和教材上面的參考答案來評判自身尚存的差距。在答案的評判上應(yīng)該注意"踩點"原則,將話題的重點作為回答的第一標(biāo)準(zhǔn),因為這些都將是考試的得分點。
下面我以實例講述復(fù)習(xí)時間的拿捏方法。口語話題按照大類可以分為基本情況介紹(如考生的學(xué)習(xí)和工作、家鄉(xiāng)、城市、建筑、愛好、人物、節(jié)假日、派對、科技、發(fā)明等),而精分一下則可以擴展至大約二十幾個。因此如果把復(fù)習(xí)時間定為一個月三十天,把話題一共cover兩遍的話,那么基本上一天復(fù)習(xí)兩個話題足矣。每個話題花一小時左右復(fù)習(xí),一天用兩小時練口語。
至于針對每個話題的具體操作方法,筆者以"學(xué)習(xí)"這個話題來具體描述。考生首先應(yīng)該明確每部分的涉獵范圍、出題模式,同時也應(yīng)按照該話題在三部分的順序由淺至深地依次回答,答題時可以先自己口頭做一遍,再看參考答案和得分點,看到自己離高分答案的尚存差距,有則改之,無則加勉。如果每個話題都能照此方法復(fù)習(xí),那么必能熟練掌握口試流程并對每個話題做到在理解上駕輕就熟。
比如涉獵范圍和出題模式,在關(guān)于"學(xué)習(xí)"的三部分考題中,第一部分是關(guān)于考生的就讀專業(yè)、專業(yè)選擇原因以及對課業(yè)的好惡等。而第二部分則是對學(xué)校的描述、課程的描述等。第三部分更進一步地談?wù)摰缴鐣用娴膯栴},如談及教育問題,讓你給出建議等。
至于參考答案和得分點,比如看到選擇專業(yè)的原因,一般參考答案會提及自己對此比較感興趣,如I enjoy every minute of it,或者說It suits me。雖然理論上講口語不應(yīng)該有什么參考答案,但是對基礎(chǔ)相對比較薄弱的考生而言,這絕對是能一招制勝且不露痕跡的"葵花寶典"。在短時期能使考生對口試的大致范圍做到胸有成竹。
二、精力的投放
為了應(yīng)付口試中廣泛的話題,很多考生在口試的復(fù)習(xí)過程中一味求全、求多,想盡力cover所有的問題。可是總覺得"野火燒不盡,春風(fēng)吹又生",一道題未搞定,一道題又侵襲--殊不知,"題海戰(zhàn)術(shù)"行不通。
其實口語在練習(xí)時應(yīng)注意橫著練和豎著練。豎著練是按口試三部分的順序練。每部分適當(dāng)?shù)孛刻爝x幾個題練習(xí)可以是三部分選一個話題,也可以三部分分別從各個話題中選出來練習(xí)。在上文中舉的"學(xué)習(xí)"一例就是按照豎練來做的。
而橫著練則是一項更為重要的復(fù)習(xí)技巧,也是口試復(fù)習(xí)的重點。所謂的橫著練,是指復(fù)習(xí)時很有必要注意話題的相通性。如果說生活是一本有章節(jié)的書,那么以日常生活作為話題的雅思口試就有很多相互關(guān)聯(lián)的話題。比如說和媒體相關(guān)的包括有電視、電影、閱讀、音樂、廣告等。本來這么多考題對考生來說是一種壓力,但如果考生能意識到這些話題的應(yīng)對有很多相同的地方,那么在答題時一定會進入一個別有洞天的境界。
仍然以媒體為例,口試中有一類描述性的題,如描述某個音樂、某部電影、某本書或是某個廣告等等。當(dāng)然考生會分別使用各種形容詞來形容這些對象,但在復(fù)習(xí)時如果孤立地以每一道題為單位來記憶描述的詞匯,就會做大量重復(fù)性的工作,因為有些形容詞對上述的話題都適用,如impressive, touching等等。可以試著選擇一些比較大的詞匯,它們往往是"一個扔出來,適用一大片"的回答。
另外再舉個例子。很多人在準(zhǔn)備口語時往往擔(dān)心要不要背句型,他們面對句型時總有"句型,要想背你好難"的感受。一方面覺得口語很靈活,沒法套句型,另一方面又覺得背不下來。但正如寫作要背句型一樣,要考好口語最好也能會一點句型,但切記要寧缺毋濫!
比如在第三部分雅思考官往往要你指出目前中國在某個方面最大的某個問題。如談到人口就是人口太多,環(huán)境問題就是吸煙、溫室效應(yīng)或酸雨等。其實無論碰到哪種社會現(xiàn)象或問題,你都能用I'm deeply/strongly concerned about _______這個句型來談某個問題,表示出你對此的擔(dān)憂。這就是比較客套、比較合理的一種表達,而不總是盯著worry about, think about這些表達不放,用詞顯得毫無特色,也沒什么地道可言。
因此,如果考生能學(xué)會概括話題,盡可能地使用適用面非常廣的詞或句型,就能大大地節(jié)省復(fù)習(xí)時間,達到事半功倍的效果。相反,考生只會被淹沒在題海中不可自拔。
上述兩點是對考生備考口試的建議,祝大家復(fù)習(xí)快樂,口試成功!

雅思口語part2話題答案:wait for something to happen
Describe a situation you waited for something to happen.
You should say:
when and where it happened;
what you waited for;
how long you waited for it;
and explain how you felt about waiting.
參考范文:
Ok right then, well after thinking for a little bit just now, what I’ve decided to talk about is the time I waited for a boat at the West Lake in Hangzhou. And as for when this happened, well I suppose it must have been about two or three months ago by now, and it was on a weekend, so we kind of knew that there would be a long queue for the boats!
So yeah, when we got there, we were told that there would be a wait of about an hour or so, at least, which was what we pretty much expected. But we didn’t feel like twiddling our thumbs and hanging around for an hour doing nothing, so instead, what we actually decided to do was to get a ticket number first and then go for a walk around the lake, have lunch and then come back again in the afternoo n. Do it that way!
And I’m glad to say that, when we went back later and showed the guy our ticket, he told us we could get on the next boat. So we felt pretty good about it, and it was quite a relief as well, cos I mean, he could have told us that we missed our turn and would have to get another ticket number, you know, like they do in the bank. But thankfully, he took pity on us, especially after I’d said that we had waited for about 4 hours! So yeah, it all worked out pretty well for us, cos we almost immediately got onto a boat. I’m not sure the other people waiting were very impressed, cos it kind of looked like we were queue barging, but anyway, that’s basically what happened!
So that’s about it, thanks for listening!
亮點詞匯:
Queue –隊伍 (it can be used as a noun or verb)
Wait – here it is used as a noun
It was what we pretty much expected. – 跟我們想象的差不多一樣
twiddling our thumbs – do nothing, 無所作為 (撫弄大拇指)

he took pity on us – 他同情了我們

Ok, so i'd like to talk about a person that i know has done a lot of work to help people, And...this is my grandmother on my father's side. She lived near my childhood home back in the United States and I used to go to her house every, uh, almost every other weekend, umm, because we had a big family and so we'd have lots of events up at my grandparent's house. And, you know, what...what my grandmother did to help people, well, i think there are lots of things...
But one of the main things is that she used to volunteer at a hospital, umm, reaaly often. You know, i was young so i don't know exactly how often she would volunteer but it was definitely a common thing. And i remember my parents talking about this when i was younger and stuff like that. But i really felt it when i was back visiting home one time and i had to visit the hospital for something. And while was waiting a lady come out and talked to me and she said she had known my grandmother and worked with her when she was at the hospital. And that she was always so impressed and really admired, umm, my grandmother and her kindness and how much she gave to the people around her. So that was quite an interesting conversation for me. And i really felt like it was meaningful and my grandmother had been doing meaningful things for the people around her. Um, you know, other than at the hospital of course she took care the people in my family so she would host birthday parties and make lots of different kinds of food and...just always giving to other people so i think she set a really good example in that sense and um, i hope that i'll be able to be a giving and helpful person like she was in the future.
雅思口語題庫part1話題答案:letters and emails
1.At work or in your studies, do you often write things?
Yes, I write a lot of emails as part of my job. I work for a company that has offices in several countries, so we use email to communicate.
2.How often do you send e-mails?
I probably write between 5 and 10 work emails every day, and I send emails to friends or family a few times a week.
3.Do you prefer to write by hand or on a computer?
It depends what I’m doing. I prefer the computer for most things because it’s faster and you can save or copy things, but I still like making notes or writing ideas down by hand.
4.Do you prefer to send letters or emails?
I prefer to send emails they’re so much quicker and easier. But then again I suppose letters are more personal and a bit more special. I certainly prefer to receive letters and I guess my real answer is that I get more pleasure out of sending letters too.
5.Do you think computers might one day replace handwriting?
No, I think we will always write by hand as well. I think it’s an important skill, and schools will continue to teach children to write by hand before they learn to type.
