雅思口语考试是很多考鸭在考试中的一大挑战,有些考鸭在阅读和写作部分是容易拿高分,但是容易在口语部分却常常遭遇滑铁卢。那怎么才能在雅思口语考试中避免一些让考官抓狂的低分错误,提高自己的口语分数呢?下面和小航一起来看看吧!
1 没有正确的参考理念,英文叫frame of reference
比如搞不清什么是home,考官问学生必考题,Do you like your home?
其实是在问那个住所,比如家里的装饰,住所的地点,furniture等,偏偏很多学生回答自己的家人怎么样,请不要谈论自己的family,这不属于home的范畴
2 中式表达多
with the development of society (×)
with the development of science and technology (×)
with the development of economy (×)
找了几个柯林斯字典中正确的搭配和例句:
China's economy galloped ahead. 中国的经济飞速向前发展。
The economy continues to grow. 经济持续增长。
By 1988 the economy was booming. 到1988年为止经济一直很繁荣。
our China (×) 改成China
relax myself (×) 改成relax
3 词汇替换错误:
比如很多学生想替换children这个词,就会说infants, toddlers, babies等。这是不准确的,因为toddler是指1岁到3岁的小孩,就是在学走路的那种,baby是指婴儿,很小那种,infant是baby的正式版
4 搭配错误,大部分中国学生动词和名词搭配不对
比如learn and grab new things 这个grab使用不对,因为grab只能抓住有形的东西,比如grab her hand,grab a cake;
比如join a school 建议改成start school 或者go to school;
再比如exercise my logical thinking 要改成do logical thinking
以及exercise my critical thinking 可以改成develop critical thinking;
学生经常乱用join, take part in, participate in, 因为中文中参加一词可以搭配很多词,比如参加比赛,参加研讨会,参加演出,参加一个聚会,参加课程参加考试,参加面试,结果拿了低分。join一般指初次参加哈,比如join a football team 参加足球队,join a swimming team参加游泳队,join a club
学生使用be lack of 或者lack sth.错误,比如‘我缺少逻辑思维’不能说I'm lack of logical thinking. 不能说I lack logical thinking. 不能说I don't have logical thinking. 毕竟逻辑不能被拥有,大家可以说I don't think logically. 或者I find it difficult to think logically. ‘我有逻辑’可以说成I think logically 或者I‘m a logical thinker.
下面给出一些正确的搭配,比如:
do (do an exam参加考试, do an interview参加面试, do an activity参加活动, do some training参加训练, do a training course参加训练课程)
have (have an exam参加考试, have a class参加课程, have a discussion参加讨论, have an interview参加面试, have some training参加训练)
play (play a match打比赛, play a game玩游戏, play for a team 参加小组)
take part in (an activity参加活动 , a debate参加 辩论, a discussion参加讨论, a race参加比赛, a competiton 加入竞争)
to be +介词(to be in a meeting参加会议, to be on a team加入小组, to be at a party参加聚会, to be at a conference参加讨论会 , to be at a seminar加入研讨会, to be part of an organisation加入组织,to be a member of a club参加俱乐部, to be part of a discussion参加讨论, be be part of a performance参加表演)
attend(派对,研讨会,饭局,宴会)
go to (派对,会议,饭局,研讨会,宴会)
participate in (竞争competition,辩论debate,谈判negotiation等)
join (加入俱乐部,组织等,是指初次加入)
5 词汇用得过大,甚至有点做作
比如有些词明明用like 表达就好,但是一定要改成所谓高大上,但是听起来不自然的东西,比如‘我喜欢咖啡’说成I like coffee就行。
学生非得说:I'm a big fan of coffee. 或者I'm attracted to coffee. 或者Coffee is my cup of tea.
