雅思口語(yǔ)考試與英語(yǔ)演講比賽之間的關(guān)系

　　英語(yǔ)演講比賽中，最能區(qū)分選手能力的項(xiàng)目便是即興演講部分(impromptu speech)和回答問(wèn)題部分(Q&A session)，而prepared speech最多算是一個(gè)熱身。原因在于，后者選手可以在參賽之前花費(fèi)心機(jī)來(lái)準(zhǔn)備，而前者卻是臨場(chǎng)的反應(yīng)。下面是小編為您收集整理的雅思口語(yǔ)考試與英語(yǔ)演講比賽之間的關(guān)系，供大家參考!

　　雅思口語(yǔ)考試與英語(yǔ)演講比賽之間的關(guān)系

　　看過(guò)一次雅思口語(yǔ)考試，同理：part one 關(guān)于自我的介紹，進(jìn)而由考官引導(dǎo)學(xué)生來(lái)對(duì)一些事物的進(jìn)行評(píng)述。自我介紹部分是學(xué)生通常準(zhǔn)備過(guò)的。平淡無(wú)奇，以至于很少有考官在這一個(gè)部分上花費(fèi)精力，本來(lái)esol要求考官?gòu)目忌淖晕医榻B中挖掘信息加以擴(kuò)展，而現(xiàn)在中國(guó)區(qū)的考官卻形成了另外一套體系，展示如下：

　　Examiner: May I have your name, please?

　　Examinee: My name is Li Hong.(通常學(xué)生在此處會(huì)停止，戰(zhàn)略性的失誤，因?yàn)閷⒌谝淮沃鲃?dòng)權(quán)交給了考官。)

　　Examiner: Do you work or are you a student?

　　Examinee: I am a student.(第二次失誤)

　　Examiner: So do you live in a dormitory or you live at home?

　　Examinee: dormitory

　　Examiner: Then would you please describe your dormitory to me?(題目出現(xiàn)了)

　　這一在法庭上出現(xiàn)的體系運(yùn)用在雅思的考試中，考生精心準(zhǔn)備的自我介紹基本上沒有得以任何的實(shí)施。相反，如果考生采取了以下的方式，情況會(huì)有所改變：

　　Examiner: May I have your name, please?

　　Examinee: yes of course, but which of my names would you like to know?(武俠小說(shuō)中的乾坤挪移大法，雅思中稱：反問(wèn)回答法。目的是逼迫考官對(duì)你的姓名產(chǎn)生興趣，此時(shí)菜鳥級(jí)的考官自然而然就會(huì)被考生引入到姓名題型中，如why your parents gave you such a name? 當(dāng)然，考官中高手此時(shí)，會(huì)聳聳肩說(shuō)：any name will do, OR the one on your passport, OR whatever.)

　　Examinee: My name is 劉洪, (千萬(wàn)不要停，但是也不要顯出背誦的痕跡，眼睛向上看，做思考狀)here 洪means the flooding water. My father gave me the name, because he wishes me to be a great person possessing the character of the water.

　　Examiner: do you work or are you a student?

　　Examinee: neither. (跳出考官的二選邏輯，給他一個(gè)小小的surprise), and I stay at home, for I think the best education that a person can receive is under one's own roof.(誘使考官對(duì)education類的題目進(jìn)行提問(wèn)，而這個(gè)也是考生事先有所涉及的題目類型)

　　而這些可以引起考官條件反射的詞語(yǔ)可以從近年來(lái)口語(yǔ)考試的機(jī)經(jīng)中總結(jié)出來(lái)。例如：single child, the gap between rich and poor等等，合理的去設(shè)計(jì)對(duì)于考官提出的前幾個(gè)問(wèn)題的回答，可以使考試變得簡(jiǎn)單一些。

　　Part two中cue card 的部分和演講比賽中的impromptu speech很像。考生需要根據(jù)卡片上的文字作答。其實(shí)，我們可以將回答的句子分成兩個(gè)部分：第一，直接從卡片上獲取特殊疑問(wèn)句，并將這特殊疑問(wèn)句轉(zhuǎn)化為陳述結(jié)構(gòu)，補(bǔ)充其中的內(nèi)容。第二， 填充部分有邏輯的論證。

　　例如：

　　What is your favorite sport?

　　Why do you like the sport?

　　What does this sport mean to you?

　　考生回答的第一句話一定要這樣說(shuō)：My favorite sport is… I like it because…

　　曾經(jīng)我在參加世界英語(yǔ)演講比賽之前，我的教練對(duì)我說(shuō)：there is a magic formula that can help you to get your message across in an easy manner. Always remember three sentences in public speaking:

　　1. Tell them what you are going to tell.(開門見山)

　　2. Tell them.(論述)

　　3. Tell them what you have told them.(總結(jié))

　　因而，很多考生說(shuō)的，諸如I think, in my opinion的這些東西其實(shí)非常多余。而開篇的句子一定要扣題且簡(jiǎn)潔，故，將題目中的特殊疑問(wèn)句變成陳述結(jié)構(gòu)便是最簡(jiǎn)單最有效的方法。

　　同時(shí)，在回答問(wèn)題的過(guò)程，加上，first, second, finally, 這樣的signal words會(huì)使雅思的考官很好的理會(huì)考生的邏輯，而這也是雅思評(píng)分的重要細(xì)則。

　　在part three中，考官會(huì)就上一個(gè)部分的問(wèn)題和考生進(jìn)入深層次的探討。而這個(gè)部分需要取得不錯(cuò)的成績(jī)，要加強(qiáng)平時(shí)的積累。在這一部分中，雅思考官關(guān)注的重點(diǎn)在于學(xué)生的idea是否unique。當(dāng)100個(gè)都在講一樣的話題時(shí)，分?jǐn)?shù)高低便不再是誰(shuí)的發(fā)音好了。更重要的是立意和buzzwords的選擇。

　　例如：What is your point of view towards Chinese ancient buildings?

　　一個(gè)學(xué)生的回答中出現(xiàn)了這樣幾個(gè)單詞，瞬間使他的分?jǐn)?shù)提高不少：cultural heritage/UNESCO/Nostalgia/,而當(dāng)他說(shuō)出這樣的quotation(大家可以去網(wǎng)上找到很多有震撼力了名人名言，去理解，去背誦)的時(shí)候，考官崩潰了：History is but the lamp that my feet are guided (by Patrick Henry in "Give me Liberty or Give me Death"). Protecting the past is cherishing the future, and therefore ancient buildings should deserve their due attention.

　　Bacon在他的論文集《論學(xué)習(xí)》中評(píng)價(jià)道：Reading makes a full man, writing an exact man, conference a ready man. 作為雅思考生的諸位，也許要做的就是不要浪費(fèi)時(shí)間去背誦一些所謂的萬(wàn)用套路，而應(yīng)該去思考怎樣能在和考官的較量中占得上風(fēng)，怎樣能用簡(jiǎn)單的詞句獲得較為滿意的分?jǐn)?shù)，怎樣能利用平時(shí)的積累去沖擊最后的勝利。

　　雅思口語(yǔ)話題之 創(chuàng)業(yè)篇

　　話題卡

　　Describe a small business that you would like to own.

　　You should say:

　　what this business would be

　　how you would start/open this business

　　how you would run this business

　　and explain why you would like to run this kind of business.

　　答案

　　What this business would be

　　I want to open a small business. It will be a place for kids to go after school, a kind of childcare centre in the neighborhood. My town desperately needs a place like this.

　　How you would start/open this business

　　Honestly, I have no idea how to go aboutmanage it yet. But common sense tells me that the key to starting a successful business is to develop a thoughtful business plan and then get the necessary financial support. But unlike other businesses, this caregivinger business would be a non-profit organization. So I would contact some local non-profit organizations and talk with them to see if they can help me in any way.

　　How you would run this business

　　There will be food, video games, pinball, and a dance floor. I will also have tutors there to help with homework and stuff. The business would operate on a membership scheme, I mean those who want to join us have to register and pay a small amount of fee first.

　　and explain why you would like to run this kind of business.

　　I would like to start this business because first of all, there's great demand around my neighborhood. A typical school day in China normally ends at 4p.m. but the working hours for most parents is from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. The centre will be a good place to the childchildren to stay in until their parents come to pick them up after work. Also I just love kids and enjoy seeing them grow. One of my friends works as a kindergarten teacher. She said that it was so much fun to working with children. They are cute, and very trusting....it is truelytruly a very promising and worthwhile career--very rewarding as well....

　　第三部分

　　1.What kinds of small business are most popular in China?

　　One of the popular small businesses here in China is to set up an online companybusiness. You can sell anything from clothes, to antiques to used furniture. The investment cost is much lower and you could work anytime and anywhere if you have the internet connection. The process could also be fully automated as the technology is maturethere.

　　2.Why do some people open their own business?

　　The benefits are pretty obvious, such as ''being you own boss' and not having to answer report to someone for anyeverything you do. Your time is you own, though you will probably find having your own business takes far more of your time than if you were havworking a ''job'.

　　3.What challenges and difficulties do people face when they try to have a successful small business?

　　There is the initial startup cost, but the biggest challenge is getting the public to believe in you and the quality of your product or service. Another challenge is proper use of your time. You can be very successful spending your time doing the right things, but most of us are not successful because we don't know whatich things to focus on and in what sequenceorder.

　　4.What do you think is the most important factor when choosing a job or career?

　　It depends on the individual circumstances. Interest is definitely important, however as you get older you will really see money plays a importantlarge rolefactor. For example, if you have a family to support,your salary pay becomes more important than the other factors. But for university graduates, the opportunity to learn and practice grow weighs more than things like salary or working hours.

　　5.Do you think it is good to change your job frequently?

　　I don't' think it's a good idea to make a general statement of saying it's good or it's bad. As an employer, I think that a person who changes jobs frequently is unstable and not responsiblegood for his/herthe team. However,I think a person who stays at the same job forever is fearful or unmotivated. I would like to see people who change their jobs until theyto find a better fit or for career advancement.
