9大雅思口语考试技巧让你的表达更地道
如何让自己的雅思口语变得洋气起来,我们要学会运用口语技巧或者地道表达方式。。下面小编就和大家分享,来欣赏一下吧。
9大雅思口语考试技巧让你的表达更地道
雅思口语考试技巧1:转折用though替换but
当你想说but来转折语气,不妨忍一下,然后在句子后面加个though,立马瞬间洋气了许多!例如:
Our team lost. It was a good game, though。
Middle-aged people like to cook at home, young adults are a bit different, though。
雅思口语考试技巧2:多用副词
例如exactly, basically, really这些副词可以加强或者缓和语气,更准确的表达我们的真实想法。例如:
That's exactly what I want!
Where are you going exactly?
So basically, there's not a lot I can do about it。
The more expensive articles are not necessarily better。’
雅思口语考试技巧3:使用从句增色语言
使用简单不易出错的同位语从句,例如:
People are now aware of the fact that many restaurants are not that hygienic。
Despite the fact that she was wearing a seat belt, she was thrown sharply forward。
雅思口语考试技巧4:强调句式用起来,增加语法的广度
例如礼物类话题的万年句式:
It doesn't matter how expensive the gift is, it's the thought that matters。
雅思口语考试技巧5:用tend to替换most of
当你想说most of… 的时候,不妨改口成tend to,词汇量有没有显得多一些!例如:
Most Chinese people cook at home instead of dining out. 就可以说成Chinese people tend to cook at home.
雅思口语考试技巧6:避免过多使用very
口语答案里面呢,要有意识的尽可能抛弃very,一种方法是用pretty替代,另一种就直接用个更高级的形容词。例如:
That performance was pretty impressive。
I'm pretty sure about that。
还有instead of saying “very angry”, you can use the word “furious”。
那同理,如果我们想表达a little + adj.,也可以找到相应的更传神的形容词,例如:tipsy = a little drunk
雅思口语考试技巧7:形容词前加副词
这也是不错的应急措施哦,如果实在想不到高大上的形容词了,就用一个副词来加强一下情感,例如:
She's shockingly beautiful。
It's an outrageously expensive meal。
雅思口语考试技巧8:避免生硬地说NO
同学们在回答考官问题的时候,其实自己也觉得说个No很伤感情,那怎么能用比较不伤感情的语言表达同样的意思呢,下面的几句可以记一下:
-Does your school have diving classes?
-Not that I'm aware of, no。
(至少)我不知道。(潜台词:可能有,不过我不知道。)
-Have you ever had the experience when you watched the sky for a long time?
-Not that I can think of, no。
我想不到。(潜台词:可能有,不过我暂时想不到,暂时记不起来。)
-Do you love nature?
-Well, not really. I'm more of an indoor person。
注意,每一个yes or no之后,一定要加原因哦!
雅思口语考试技巧9:考场上“mean”要用起来
“I mean”可以用来解释刚刚自己抛出去的话,比如,在解释自己最不喜欢的电影的时候可以说:
That movie was so boring, I mean, nothing happened for the first hour!
这个也可以有很灵活的变体:and by… I mean…,比如:
He has a gorgeous wife, and by wife I mean mistress. (此例子完全为了解释用法…)
“You mean…?”该句式是为了跟考官check information,如果你不想用“I'm sorry?”来让考官重复问题,你完全可以用它来确定一下自己的理解是否跟考官的问题吻合。
注意:一般这样问,是已经理解了八九不离十,如果真的完全没听懂问题,请用以下句式:
Sorry, I didn't quite catch it. 不好意思没听清,能在重复一下子不?
Sorry, could you slow down, please? 不好意思您能把语速放慢点儿不?
Sorry, can you rephrase the question, please? 不好意思您能解释一下刚才的问题不?(就是问题里面有生词,此时无论考官repeat几遍问题,你也不可能懂,所以需要麻烦他rephrase改述一下问题)
雅思口语范文:interesting neighbor
I happen to have a neighbor who just moved in to my apartment building a few weeks ago.
I’d like to talk about my neighbor who has been living next door to me for almost 5 years.
然后开始介绍第一次见面的场景:
I still remember the first day we met. He knocked on my door, and handed me a mini speaker. I was like, what… why and who are you? He explained, like, he was new here, and he was about to do some renovation stuff in his new apartment, so there’s gonna be irritating noises like the hammering and drilling. He told me I could use this speaker to play some loud music, you know, to block out the noise. I was really impressed by his gesture.
So you see, he left a super great first impression on me, I mean, he struck me as a humorous and polite person from the very first day we met.
然后下面就是“一来二去的熟络了起来”,然后逐渐了解,发现这个人“扣题的特质”,例如如果是“interesting”,那么就多讲讲他生活丰富多彩的一面,如果是“polite”,就来夸夸他待人接物多么有礼貌,如果是“new friend”,就用第一个开头,刚搬过来没几周,等等……
惯用的套话就是“And then, one thing led to another, we became good friends. And the more I get to know him, the more I realize how amazing his life is./how polite he is.”等等。
下面用“interesting neighbor”举个例子:
Actually, we clicked immediately when we realized that we had so much in common. Like, we are both into music and travelling. She has her own band and she’s the lead singer. In her spare time, she would write songs and sing in the nightclub part-time. She has been to countless places and really seen the world, so she has various fascinating stories to tell. Oh, I forgot to mention earlier, she’s also an excellent cook. What she makes is mouth-watering and tastes out of this world.
I guess I’m really lucky to have her as my neighbor, I mean, she really spices things up for me. / adds some spice to my life.
语言点解析:
I’m like = used in very informal speech, to mean ‘I say’ 例如:
And then I'm like ‘No Way!’
like = used in very informal speech, for example when you are thinking what to say next, explaining something, or giving an example of something 例如:
It was, like, weird.
It was kind of scary, like.
It's really hard. Like I have no time for my own work.
block out = to stop light or noise from coming in 例如:
Black clouds blocked out the sun.
He put his hands over his ears to block out the noise.
gesture = something that you do or say to show a particular feeling or intention 例如:
They sent some flowers as a gesture of sympathy to the parents of the child.
It was a nice gesture (= it was kind) to invite his wife too.
strike somebody as something = to give somebody a particular impression 例如:
His reaction struck me as odd.
She strikes me as a very efficient person.
How does the idea strike you?
click = to become friends with somebody at once; to become popular with somebody 例如:
We met at a party and clicked immediately.
spice something up = to add interest or excitement to something 例如:
He exaggerated the details to spice up the story.
Her conversation is always spiced with humour.
雅思口语:最喜欢的天气
I feel really comfortable in rainy days, ‘cause the rain makes me calm and peaceful.
I love listening to the rain while I’m lying on my bed. And it’s usually cool in rainy days, so you could imagine how comfortable I am when it’s raining in hot summer. And the best part of rainy days is, I could see pretty rainbows when the rain stops, and when I see a double rainbow, I would be so thrilled ‘cause I strongly believe that it means something good would happen to me. Plus, the smell in the air is just so refreshing. I remember there’s a word for it, um… petrichor, is that right? Well, anyway, I’ve always wanted to buy a perfume that has the same smell, but I never found one.
Besides, I think the rivers and lakes are the most gorgeous when it’s raining, ‘cause the ripples are irregular but look so artistic, just like a painting.
And in rainy days, I could have an unusual experience in the mountain. You know, mountains tend to be foggy after the rain. All the leaves and flowers are covered with raindrops. It makes me feel that there’re fairies living out there. No wonder that there are so many Chinese poems about mountains in rainy days.
还有一些小朋友有着神奇的爱好,就是喜欢看雨中没打伞的人群在拼命奔跑躲雨… 如果你也有这种癖好,不妨分享一下,万一雅思考官有共鸣呢:
And I have a funny and weird habit. I love storm. Maybe it’s hard to understand, but I really love the sound of the raindrops. And I love to see people running in the heavy rain without an umbrella, I know it’s a little evil and perverted, but I just couldn’t help it.)
雅思考试语言点解析:
petrichor = the earthy scent produced when rain falls on dry soil.
(it's) no/ little/ small wonder (that)… = it is not surprising 例如:
It is little wonder (that) she was so upset.
No wonder you're tired, you've been walking for hours.
perverted = not thought to be normal or acceptable by most people 例如:
sexual acts, normal and perverted
She was having difficulty following his perverted logic.
They clearly take a perverted delight in watching others suffer.
雅思口语话题:describe a cloth
My favorite clothes is a T-shirt my cousin got me, it’s like a lucky charm for me.
And here’s the story.
When I was in middle school, I was super allergic to math, maybe I just didn’t have it in me to learn that, ‘cause no matter how hard I tried, I just couldn’t get good grades. So I was pretty frustrated, you know.
And one day, I got a gift from my cousin, which is the T-shirt I mentioned earlier. It’s super comfortable. I mean, it’s made of cotton, so the texture is quite soft, and it breathes well, so it’s really comfy to wear during summer.
And what’s unique about it is that it’s a specially designed one, I mean, she had the shirt printed with functions and equations in math, so when I was wearing it, I was like a walking math textbook.
She said, this is a magical T-shirt that could help me improve my grades. Well, to be honest, it sounds a little bit superstitious, and I didn’t buy it at first, but believe it or not, there’s really something magical about this T-shirt. After a while, somehow, math started to grow on me. Maybe it’s because I suddenly got the hang of it or maybe it’s the new math teacher. Anyway, my performance in math did improve a lot.
So that’s why I called it my lucky charm, and so far it’s definitely my favorite clothes.
