第二篇:雅思口语
I am a huge fan of a Chinese TV show named Happy Camp, in Chinese KLDBY, which is an entertaining program.There are a lot of stars showing up in the program.It is on 8 every Saturday night so I feel very relaxed every weekend.The show is very funny in that the five hosts are gifted in amusing people.I especially enjoy watching them chat with guests and play jokes on them.They are so intelligent and humorous that I am always amused by their words.In addition, they also play some games with stars in the show which can present another aspect of these stars.Sometimes I laughed so hard that my mom thought I was crazy, and then she became curious and ended up as a huge fan of the show herself.Yes.I think there are too much advertising on TV which always spoils my mood of appreciating TV programs or dramas.I do not like it at all.I know it is unlikely that there is no ad on TV at all.But I hope the ads can be put after the broadcasting of a TV program not in the middle of it.I think the difference between today’s TV channels and pastis huge.We have more channels today than in the pst.So we can appreciate a variety of TV programs which enrich our leisure time.But there are also more advertisements on TV today than in the past, which makes audience annoyed.I think Peking University Hall is very interesting.It is on the campus of PKU.When I first entered PKU, I went there to listen to the lecture of freshmen’s mental health.So it was one of my first impressions about PKU.Peking University Hall is a building that mixes the arts of traditional and modern architecture.It looks like a castle.At night, all the lights, movement and excitement of a busy theatre can be seen from the street outside.All the performances there are very wonderful.Besides, many famous people visit there and give a lecture to students of our university.I’ve watched a lot of performances and even met my idol Jay Chou in the hall.So the hall is very interesting to me

Two month passed, the police she had met on the train told her the truth.On hearing this, she couldn’t help weeping.Every time I watched this scene, I would be moved by the love between Liu and her boyfriend

第五篇:雅思口语指南
雅思新手指南:学好口语要从五大要点下手
http://.cn 2007年01月29日 12:10
给大家承诺了这么久写口语,可是因为回国,还有一些个人的事情所以没有兑现,实在不好意思。OK,现在就开始先给大家明确一下口语考试评分的要点(从最重要的开始排序)。1,Fluency 2,Grammary(包括pronouns和tense)3,Vocabulary 4,Pronunciation 5,Coherency
下面我把这5点分开说
1,流利度。可以看出流利程度是最重要的。这是考官对你口语水平的一个整体感觉。怎么做到流利自如呢?基础好,不怯场是一方面。关键的是,我们要打有准备之仗,在考试之前一定要把最近经常考的topic准备一边。
准备方法:对每个部分的可能出现的问题都要准备。
首先列提纲,学会由点到面的思维方式。
比如让你描述一个对你有影响的人。可以说很多方面,象热心,有丰富的知识,做人很正值,诚实,很慷慨,在某方面有特长,什么都可以说。因为是自己的观点和想法, 所以不需要多么合乎逻辑,合乎正常思维。学会练习发散性的思维。这样在考试的时候不会张口结舌,不知道说什么。
很多同学都喜欢把整个topic写出来,然后经常拿着背。对这种方法我不提倡,也不反对。因为各人都有自己适应的方式。但是这样做,太费时,费力。而且有些句子写出来感觉不错,但是如果说的话可能就不一样了。而且有些长句子靠背诵。在考试的时候万一哪里说错了,就犯了grammar的错误,不值得平时可以把自己的作文什么的小文章拿来出声朗读,锻炼自己的舌头适应英语的发音。培养自己说英语的感觉。
2,语法。在平时有机会练习的时候就要注意,不要养成坏习惯有些在国外的同学, 因为说英语的时候多一些, 而且有的时候不得不说英语, 所以有很多人养成一种习惯,只要让听的人听懂就可以了。而且自我感觉还不错,这样在生活中是没什么的。但是考试的时候是要考查你的grammar的。所以很多时候,错误的句子脱口而出。
顺便讲个笑话.有个
留学生开车撞车了。没办法,打电话给警察,说了3句令人惊叹的话:“one car hiting my car, red water on the floor, I call 呜呜呜coming.” 警察是听明白了,但是这样考试中可行不通
口语里面不太涉及很深的语法。我们经常犯的语法错误也是那种很低级的,可以避免的。象he, she不分, 单三人称没有把动词加s, 时态前后不一致。如果让你听别人这么说,一下子就听出来了。但是放在自己身上怎么就那么难避免啊?
所以我建议,说话之前不要着急,先想2,3秒,大概怎么说。考试的时候这几秒的空白可以用well, I think, I believe来填补。本来有些问题就是要想一下才能回答的, 就算他们洋人自己说话也是需要思考的吧。
3,词汇。很多时候不是我们没话说,而是不知道该怎么表达。还有就是分不清楚书面用语和口语词汇。把很正式的书面语用来说口语,给人的感觉会象我们听那个老外说中文时,老是夹杂用一些成语和古诗词什么的。
这个问题只能通过积累来解决。一个时积累自己没有掌握的词汇和一些表达方式。二就是尽量区分书面语和口头语。凡是涉及词汇的时候,我们时没有捷径可以走的。
4,发音。很简单,跟着听力练习,或者其他任何可以正确发音的电视,电影,广播,媒体来学。
发音很糟糕的同学如果有时间最好能把国际音标再学学。因为这样对记单词也是有好处的。
平时如果要朗读的时候, 最好能在保证发音正确以后在练习。遇见那些不太清楚怎么发音的单词别犯懒, 拿字典查一查怎么发音,重音在哪个音节。这样不会一直把单词念错。不管怎么样,dont be too nervous, 只要你的口音不是滥到让考官听不懂,就没有什么问题的。
5,相关性。这点是放在最后的, 所以可以看出来IELTS考试不是只为了考你能否正确回答问题.但是切记, 这点是看你能不能正确的理解问题.不知道问什么,肯定所问非所答了.在考试的时候, 如果听不懂什么意思,考官也只会复述一边问题,不会给你任何解释。如果听了第二遍还是不清楚问什么, 也别僵着, 想想整个句子听懂的部分是什么, 照着这个说,就算偏一点,但是还可以展示你的口语能力。什么都不说就等于自己给自己判了死刑啦。
小贴士:
我的老师给我的一些学习建议:1,多看英语的电视,听广播,看报纸。2,有空的时候就自己尝试去描述一个人,一个物品。锻炼自己的描述能力。说的时候可以多比较。特别是没话说的时候。比如让你说shopping,就可以比较男性和女性不同的购物习惯。这样就大有可说了。
雅思口语复习时间表
如果你有较长的时间
比如3个月
首先
第12周你对雅思考试了解吗?收集资料,找一份模拟题,做一做,如果做得不好不要慌张,我们还有时间复习。如果做得好,也别骄傲,找出自己的薄弱环节,针对性的复习。
第11周现在先不要着急做题,我们应该做一些文化知识的积累。要想口语和写作得高分,就要有英语思维,只有一定积累以后,才会有这样得效果。
当然你可以找一些自己喜欢看的英文书,每天坚持朗读45分钟,同一篇文章或句子,段落需练习数遍至脱口而出.推荐新概念那套教材。
此工作需持之以恒,一个月即效果明显.好的文章内容能扩大知识面,增加对英美文化的理解,朗朗上口的段子能提高语感,丰富表达方式,地道的俚语俗语会给考官一个惊喜并得到一个好的分数.第10~8周如果经济允许,那就选择一个辅导班,因为在辅导班上你可以学到许多考试的技巧,可以事半功倍。
并且能让你较短的时间内熟悉考试模式,更理想的是找到志同道合的学习伙伴.一般IELTS培训课程都会有纯正英语国家教师进行模考,还提供了一次很好的锻炼机会和实战经验.第7周准备第一阶段内容
认真填写申请表
采取伙伴练习,模拟对话形式.此阶段内容多与考生自身相关,在回答的过程中应表现的随意些.第6周将手头上现成的资料分门别类整理,制成卡片
结合自身情况和体会,用自己的语言将每个Topic口头表述成一篇200~250字的完整短文.最好可以找人帮你修改一下,并且按照人,事件,事物等分类。
第5周准备第2阶段类容,同时抽空复习第1阶段内容
一定要做到出现此题目或类似题目,脑海中能浮现所有关键信息.第4~3周准备第3阶段内容
复习第2,3阶段内容
基本与第2阶段准备工作相同,适当增加表述问题的深度.第2周最后冲刺,混合各阶段内容,综合复习.一般情况,第3阶段的问题与第2阶段的话题紧密联系的,练习时应善于联想相关问题和信息.最后一周每天进行模拟口试4次,共60分钟
这样在考试前基本可以’消灭’所有可能出现的问题.如果你离考试还有一个月请参考
我们从第四周开始倒数,其实与前面的做法一样,只是需要你缩短培训的时间,两周左右的培训课程为佳。在还有四天的时候,准备第一阶段内容,准备第2,3阶段和复习第一阶段,混合3个阶段内容,综合复习,每天进行模拟口试.此阶段内容多与考生自身相关,在回答的过程中应表现的随意些.一定要做到出现此题目或类似题目,脑海中能浮现所有关键信息.基本与第2阶段准备工作相同,适当增加表述问题的深度.一般情况,第3阶段的问题与第2阶段的话题紧密联系的,练习时应善于联想相关问题和信息
这样在考试前基本可以’消灭’所有可能出现的问题.如果你离考试只有一星期了请看
在这六天里,我们要沉着应战,第一天
初步了解雅思口语考试
可看一些有关雅思介绍的书籍
第2天
准备第1阶段的内容
将第一阶段的一些问题浏览并认真回答2~3遍
第3天
准备第2阶段内容.将卡片分类
每张卡片都花2~3钟构思并融会贯通简化工作量
抽出最生疏和最没底的,重点突破
类似的TOPIC可用近似的词汇描述.如location类的词和句基本都可回答where类的问题.第4~5天
准备第3阶段内容
浏览所有准备的问题,尝试归纳总结自己的观点并记录在纸上
记录这部分熟悉的,常用却不知如何用英语地道表达的词句
同第2阶段准备类似,抽出难题,重点突破.由于第3阶段的内容相对复杂,用两天复习
不要以为自己知道怎么说就略过,强迫自己说出来完整的答案
第6天
进行2~3次模拟口试
检测自己是否应答自如,还有什么地方需要补救
各为考生,无论你是从何时准备你的口语复习,都要记住一点:有信心才能成功。如果你有要修改的口语卡片和作文,可以联系我qq:511468167,也可以发到网站上.cn/bbs雅思全方位这个栏目里。
雅思7分经验教训总结
寄托考试站 [http://exam.gter.net]2005-08-12 21:53 PM无忧雅思社区
考完了,轻松了。看到得了7分(听力7.5,其它都是7),没有兴奋的感觉,因为我觉得是应该的,并且很惭愧努力不够,否则应该得到更高的分数。下面谈谈我的感觉。
首先,我觉得每个人(有CET-4证书的水平就可以了),通过三个月的努力,只要你投入进去,应该说得到7分并不难,至少6.5应该没有问题。
先说说我对机经的看法,我没有使用过听力、阅读、口语的任何真题回忆一类的东西。作文我下载了一些真题题目,主要是练习的时候不知道写什么,觉得真题练习针对性比较强,于是在无忧上下载了一份。
我个人认为机经作用不大,时间消耗倒不少(主要听说需要背下来);且光有分数,实际能力如果没有提高,出去也是浪费钱。当然,这纯粹属于个人观点。据我所知,在国外,再学英语
太困难了。国外的环境主要对于口语、阅读和写作的帮助比较大,(主要是每天都要用,但却没有时间让你重新从基础学起)其他则不明显。繁重的课程很难让人再专心去学英语。相比较而言,无忧雅思的口语机经和写作机经个人认为反而比较有用,因为这些内容网友回忆起来比较方便,可以说都是真题,并且无忧分类组织的也不错,避免了我四处查找真题。
我是从4月份开始准备的,7月16日参加的考试。参加了四川大学出国人员培训部的雅思班。我觉得这个班对我帮助满大的。
使用教材:
听力:Listening Comprehension Practice, Active Listening, Count me in, Focus on First Certificate, Task Listening(以上基本是分类练习,又专门练习数字的,有专门练习场景的)。另外,北语黑眼睛和中级听力是我们听力自习课可以选用的教材,雅思考前15天为自学课本。阅读:Authentic Reading, Reading and Thinking In English(这本书非常好,对作文帮助也很大),雅思考前15天阅读为自学课本。
口语:Handouts & 雅思考前15天口语分册

我自己买了三本书:《我的雅思词汇》,《雅思8分万能作文》,《英语高级写作》(清华影印版,为全英文教材)。
听力
基本上我用1.5月完成了基础听力的练习。后面进行了针对训练。关于听力我说几点建议:
1.预测非常重要。基本上通过预测,你就可以抓住关键词,当文章到位置的时候会非常敏感。人要做到30分钟都完全用心听还是很困难,所以预测+关键词很重要。
2.熟悉场景。雅思听力说是考能力,但也有技巧。比如学生住宿,问路,教授辅导等等都是经常考的场景,听过以后一定要自己总结一下。
3.一般问题都成片出现,所以有个空没有听清楚,或者词没有反应过来,千万不要停留,一两个空不影响大局。如果一迟疑,往往漏掉一片。我出现过有个词没听清楚,结果漏掉后面5个题(老在想那道题,后面听得比较模糊)。
阅读
阅读其实也比较简单,就是定位准确。我也说说我的看法:
1.态度比细节重要,有的时候你可以根据整体态度,想象如果文章你来写,会怎么写,从
而判断作者对于某个细节的态度,选出正确答案。
2.积累同义词,一般题干不会出现文章中的原词,而是同义词。只要你认识,找到位置,一般都能选对。
3.有大意题,每段看两句就做题,这样的正确率瞎猜,都比看完每段受到干扰的正确率高。没有大意题,也要看每段首句,知道每段在讲什么,能够迅速定位。
作文
1.结构布局〉其他
2.条理清楚,论证有力。避免空对空,老外即使是说1+1=2,也要说,“我们都知道买1个苹果再买一个苹果是两个苹果”(这个有点夸张,只是说明老外喜欢有例子,一切以事实为依据,不要太多的哲学家)。
3.积累同义词非常重要,金山词霸等软件可以帮助你完成积累,平时多用,就记住了。
4.有人建议先写task2因为分值高。我建议先写task1,因为可以休息脑子,帮助写好task2。毕竟阅读还是很消耗体力的,反观task1,应该是整个考试最轻松的部分。
5.留时间检查,低级错误扣分很严重。我一般可以提前10分钟完成两篇,所以一般都时间充裕,建议大家也练习稍微快一点。
口语
1.自信。很明白吧,你的分数很大程度上取决于你给老外的印象。
2.可以用手势辅助说话。
3.在第三部分,尝试着问老外问题。比如:What's your opinion about this issue?
4.整洁大方的着装。说话时看着对方的眼睛。这有两个好处:
第一,让老外觉得你自信且尊重他/她;
第二,你看他/她表情不对,就调整观点。
毕竟人的潜意识都喜欢别人观点和自己一样。
