第一篇:考研英语口语复试备考知技巧汇总
2011年考研英语口语复试备考知技巧汇总
研究生报名人数的逐年增加,研究生复试一般改为差额复试,考生复试的成绩如何直接影响到其是否被录取。研究生复试一般分为专业课复试与英语复试,而英语复试主要是口语测试。由于从2005年起研究生入学考试英语笔试部分取消了听力,因此,研究生复试中除了传统的口语测试外,很多学校增加了听力部分。无论参加哪种形式的口语考试,说一口流利、准确的英语都是通过考试的关键所在。语言的基本功与长期的口语素材积累至关重要。一般性备考可以分为下面几个部分:
1、应试材料的准备:为了准备口语考试,可以准备一些材料,如《英语中级口语教程》、《
四、六级英语口语应试》等。当然如果确定参加哪种英语口试,又了解其口语考试的形式与内容,选择针对其考试的口语材料更为有效,如雅思口语、托福口语等。
2、制定复习计划:根据备考时间与所要参加的口试类型制定复习计划。可以每天准备一个话题,话题的内容最好是热门话题或常考话题。常见口语话题总结如下:Laid-offworker„sproblem、Reformsofhousingpolicy、Goingabroad、Globalization、Informationage、Environmentalprotectionandeconomicdevelopment、Onlinelearning、2008Olympic,Beijing、Economiccrisis.热点话题在报纸、杂志上大多可以找到,也是很多考试写作部分常出的题目,因此也可以参照考研或四、六级作文范文。但切忌全篇背诵所找到的材料,最好只借用其中某些素材,然后用自己的语言重新整理。
3、熟悉考场情况与考试流程
(1)与小组组员的交流(二对二考试模式)
小组成员可先模拟一下考试过程。让自己进入状态,而后可谈一些其他话题,放松一下。
(2)进入考场
入室前要敲门,虽是小节,但关系到你给考官的第一印象。
衣着得体,落落大方。
向考官问候:Goodmorning/afternoon.如果可以,微笑,但绝不可勉强。
(3)自我介绍
要求简洁、有新意,能够让考官记住你。最重要的是,发音要准,不要太快,以别人听懂为目的。但注意一定要听考官的指示语,听到考官说:
Canyouintroduceyourselfbriefly/saysomethingaboutyourself后再开始。其实现在许多口语考试为了避免考生背诵准备好的自我介绍,都去除了这个部分,而是由一些简单问题来代替,如:
Whereareyoufrom?Couldyousaysomethingaboutyourhometown?
Couldyousaysomethingaboutyourfamily?
Whatdoyouusuallydoinyourleisuretime?
What„syourfavoriteTVprogram?
Whoisthemostimportantpersoninyourfamily?
(4)回答考官问题
此处不再赘述,但有一点要注意,千万不要只回答“YES”或“NO”,而是要加上你的reason或者是example.(5)看图说话
不要过分局限于图中的内容,而应充分开阔思路,尤其注意的是在讲述完图中内容后做适当的评价,对图中的事物或观点提出自己的看法或客观公正的评论。
(6)讨论
此处是发挥你的才智的关键一节,discussion在考试中占了很大一部分时间,所以要尽可能是自己多说,但要保证说到点子上。
(7)最后问题
最后,考官还会问你一个问题,这是你进一步展示自己的大好机会,如果前面不太理想,也可借此补救一下。
(8)结束
考官明确说出:Thisistheendofthetest,thankyou.说明考试正式结束。站起来,拿好自己的东西,如准考证,与考官说再见:Thankyou,goodbye.或
Thankyouforyourinterviewgoodbye.然后离开。注意考试结束后不要问老师关于得分的问题,应该马上礼貌的离开。
2---------英语口试备考:考前提前了解考试形式
口语考试的形式、内容、评分标准不尽相同,因此考前一定要熟识考试的各个环节,然后进行更有针对性的准备。由于网络资源的发达,几乎所有口语考试的内容都可以在网上找到信息。
考研复试英语口试特点如下:
1、各学校考试形式不同
对口语的考查,各个学校各不尽相同。有的学校制定了非常详细的标准和流程,甚至规定了每个老师发问的方式和时间;有的只是面试老师的自由发挥,成绩也基本上由面试老师主观判定。
2、考试形式汇总
个人介绍
让你或以问答的方式或以一个小小的独白来介绍自己。一般自我介绍包括个人信息、兴趣爱好、学习情况、未来计划几个方面,但时间都不会过长,大约持续一分钟左右。例如:
Goodmorning.Iamgladtobehereforthisinterview.MynameisLiMing.IcomefromChangChun,thecapitalofJiLinProvince.IwillgraduatefromDepartmentofFinanceofJiLinUniversityinthecomingJune.Iamopen-minded,quickinthoughtandveryfondoftraveling.Inmysparetime,Ihavebroadinterestslikemanyotheryoungsters.Ilikereadingbooks,especiallythoseaboutChinesehistory.FrequentlyIexchangewithotherpeoplebymakingcommentsintheforumonline.Inaddition,duringmycollegeyears,IwasonceaNet-

考官进一步问你关于一些话题的看法。例如:
﹒Whatkindofprofessionsshowstatusinyourcountry?
﹒Modernsocietyisoftencalledmaterialistic.Whydoyouthinkthisis?
﹒Whatistheroleofadvertising?
﹒Howdoyouthinktheinternetwillaffectbuyingpatternsinthefuture?
个人长谈
考官让你抽一个话题,给你1至2分钟准备,让你做1至2分钟的演讲。这部分比较接近雅思口语考试的第二部分。例如:Describeanactivityinschool.WhenIwasinmiddleschool,Iattendedatrainingclassfordancing,becausethen,manyclassmatesofminetoldmethatdancingwasnotonlyawonderfulsportwhichcouldexercisemycoordinationwhichIusedtobepoorat,itcouldalsoimprovemyartistictaste,andmanyofthemwouldattendthetraining.Iwastrainedthereforabout2month.Theinstructorspentabout1monthtrainingmybasicskillslikeflexibility,musicsense,sit-upsandpull-upsandbasicmovementslikepony,sunriseandtwist.Tome,allthosetrainingitemsseemedmorelikeanaerobicstrainingclassotherthanadancingclass,butwhocares.Twomonthpassed,andIdidn„tthinkIreallyknowhowtodancewellthen.Butlater,whenIwasoldenoughtogodancingwithmyfriends,allthosetrainingitemsseemedtoworkwell,youknow,Icoulddanceamovementatonlyonesightofit,whichisamissionimpossibletomostamateurdancers.Thisactivitybroughtmeastrongsenseofachievement.考生对话
考官给你和另外一个考生一个话题,给你们一段准备的时间,然后让你们进行对话讨论。图片描绘,分析与讨论
这种形式非常接近考研笔试写作的图片作文,只不过是以口语的形式考。每个学校会根据自己的想法来指定考试的具体的形式,但一般都会包括以上的两到四个部分。
3--------------专业备考:不必担心专业词汇太少
现在很多学校英语复试的形式更加灵活,比如不再采取单独的英语复试,而是把英语复试和专业课复试融在一起进行,其具体形式大概可以分为两种:
1、专业课老师与英语老师组成一个复试团队,复试过程中专业课老师用汉语提问专业问题,而英语老师用英语提问一些与考生考取专业相关的问题。例如,考取金融方向研究生的考生可能会遇到如下问题:
CouldyouexplaintheChinesemonetarypolicyinEnglish?
WhatdoyouthinkwillbetheimpactofcurrentglobaleconomiccrisisonChineseeconomy?
2、由于现在高校老师的整体素质提高,复试中由专业老师直接用英语进行提问。
虽然用英语对专业问题进行考查是研究生复试的一个新的趋势,但考生不必担心自己的专业词汇太少或无法用英语表达自己的观点,因为即使用英文提问专业相关的问题,这部分的目的仍旧是考查考生的英语水平,问题一般比较浅显,不会涉及到大量专业词汇。除一般性备考外还要注意:关注与自己专业相关的热点问题,注意阅读报纸或杂志上相关的文章,适当积累一些专业词汇;如果学过英文原版教材,注意其中的专业词汇。
其实并非所有专业的考生都会遇到英语复试中考查专业问题的情况。一般涉外专业或国际化较强的专业如经济(如考取中央财经大学、对外经贸大学)、传媒、语言专业的考生要注意对专业问题的准备。
听力备考:不建议听英语考试的听力材料
听与说作为语言技能是密不可分的,因此虽然考研英语复试中可能涉及到听力部分,但一般也会与口语同时考查,其考查的形式一般为由复试老师阅读或播放一段英文短文,然后由考生根据短文回答相关问题。这种形式在伦敦三一学院口语考试高级中有,可以参照。
听力是英语听说读写中最需要平时积累的一项技能,因此建议考生在研究生入学考试笔试结束后到复试前的一段时间内每天坚持听20分钟左右。内容可以是新闻,如VOA,BBC,CNN新闻,当然也可以听某一个课本,如《中级英语听力》。建议听的时候做一些笔记。由于复试中一般不会让考生像正规的听力考试一样作选择或填空题,因此不建议考生听英语考试的听力材料,如CET,TOEFL,IELTS等。
口试评分标准:分项打分与整体打分
一般口语考试评分标准包括发音、词汇与语法、流利度、内容等几个方面。如果两名考生同时进行考试,则互动交际也会成为评分的一部分。目前口试打分大概分为两种:分项打分和整体印象打分。国内的PETS考试采取分项打分与整体印象打分相结合的方法,IELTS采取整体印象打分法。考生应该注意无论采取哪种打分方法,发音、词汇与语法、流利度、内容等都是考查的重点,因此平时练习至关重要。
良好的英语听说能力是复试成功的保证。参加研究生英语复试,无论形式如何,正确的语音语调、词汇与语法的准确性、话语内容、流利度、互动交际等几方面都是考察的内容,因此考生一定要注意平时的语言训练与材料积累,多听,多读,多说。只要平时能说一口流利而准确的英语,任何形式的考试都可以轻松通过。
第二篇:考研复试英语口语备考注意事项
考研复试英语口语备考注意事项
随着2013年的春节假期结束,考研复试已经悄然被提上日程。和初试不同,复试不是绝对化的客观性考试,而是一种面对面的交流。如此一来,一些细节性的东西就凸现出来了,在我们英语口试过程当中更是如此,我们应该予以高度的重视,提前做好准备,这样我们方能够知己知彼百战不殆。苏州英语口语培训的沃尔得周老师针对考研复试英语口语的细节问题进行分析,希望给广大在准备中的学子们带来帮助。
为了保证研究生的实际操作、交流和应对能力,培养出更加全面的综合性人才,现在各高校都会加大对复试阶段的考查力度。按规定复试由各招生单位的有关院、系、所组织本专业或相近专业的数名导师组成复试小组,对考生进行复试。复试方法灵活,基本上由口语、听力和笔头翻译三部分组成。作为苏州英语口语培训的沃尔得周老师为同学们介绍复试中英语口语的注意事项。
考试目的研究生入学考试英语口语复试要求考生参与不同形式的口头交际情境,主要测试考生运用英语知识进行口头交际能力。它要求考生能用英语进行一般性日常生活会话,能就一般性题材及所选专业知识做一般性交谈。英语口语复试考生的语言及非语言沟通能力将根据其在口试中的表现得以测定。
考试内容
英语口试一般由考生用英语介绍本人基本情况开始,之后则考查一下专业外语,口头翻译单词、词组、一句话、一段或一篇专业外语文章,或限时读一篇文章,然后用英语复述,或就内容回答问题,或讨论,或发表个人看法,由此了解考生对本专业研究现状的掌握情况,现从事的工作及取得的成果,读研后准备研究的课题及个人打算等等。还可能事先拟定几个题目、情景让考生抽签,考生根据题目或情景用英语进行对话、讨论或角色扮演。因此复试要求考生不仅能用英语简单介绍自己,还能用英语就许多专业领域的问题作答,特别是调剂生和跨专业学生,要对有关专业问题有充分的思想准备。因此考生有必要事先尽可能了解复试的方式、方法、内容范围,做到心中有数。
虽然各个院校的研究生入学考试英语口语复试的内容不尽相同,但都采用面对面形式,即每个考场一般由两至三名考官和一名考生或两至三名考官和两名考生组成。多数情况下,两名考官中一位是主考(interlocutor),负责向考生(candidate)提问、谈话,掌控整个口试过程。另一名考官为评判员(assessor),不提问,不插话,只注意监听。在有些情况下,评判员也可能参加提问和谈话。不过,在口试正式开始时,考官会向考生明确这一点。比如主考官会对考生说:Good morning.My name is XXX, and this is my colleague, XXX.She’ll be listening to us.或:Good morning.My name is XXX, and this is my colleague, XXX.First of all, we’re going to ask you some questions about……在整个口试过程中,考生不得以中文回答问题或参与讨论。
应试技巧
各个院校的研究生入学英语口试基本上都从发音的正确性、使用语言的准确性、流利程度以及得体性几个方面全面测试考生的表达能力。
根据对历年各院校复试环节的总结分析,我们发现口语复试的题型概括起来有几下几种:即兴演讲、朗读、复述、看图说话、描述图标。熟悉口语题型,掌握应试技巧,在考前多多练习,做到有备而来,在考场上就能沉着应战。沃尔得周老师提醒大家在准备和面试过程中,一定要注意以下
几点:
第一,认真听考官的提问,注意提问的句型:
一般疑问句(例如:Do you speak English outside the classroom?),特殊疑问句(例
如:What are you going to take in graduate school?),选择疑问句(例如:Do you want to work in government or in business?),祈使句,反义疑问句(例如:It’s going to be a hard test, isn’t it?)。针对不同的句型作出相应的回答。
第二,如果没有听懂或听清,千万不要慌张,可请考官再说一遍,可选择如下句型:
I am sorry, would you please say it again? I am sorry I didn’t follow you, I beg your pardon? Could you put it in another way? 这种情况是不会扣分的。但是切忌答非所问不懂装懂,这会令考官十分反感。
第三,回答热身过程中的提问一定要简洁,三至五句为宜
回答要精练准确切忌过于缓慢拖沓,以免有消耗时间嫌疑。同时也不要只顾自己夸夸其谈而忽略了考官的反应和表情,要注意这是一个交流和双方互动的环节,也要避免跑题。回答时也不宜过于简单,如果对方体的是一般疑问句型,不能只回答yes或no,可以适当向考官提一两个问题。当对方闻到你的“优点”“缺点”或“计划时”,不要只回答一两个单独的词汇,而应该就此再继续展开自己的衍生看法。例如当考官问道:What is your greatest strength?(你最突出的优点是什
么?),这是一个常见问题,要抓住这个机会展现自己,也不要吹嘘自己或过于自负,但要让考官知道你的自信和优势。比如可以回答:“我认为我最大的优点是能够执着地尽力把事情办好。当做完一件工作而其成果又正合我的预想时,我会有一种真正的成就感。我给自己定了一些高目标。比如说,我要成为出色的本科毕业生。尽管在大学一年级时我启动慢了些,但最终我将会以优等论文完成学业。” I feel that my strongest asset is my ability to stick to things to get them done.I feel a real sense of accomplishment when I finish a job and it turns out just as I’d planned.I’ve set some high goals for myself.For example, I want to
graduate with highest distinction.And even though I had a slow start in my freshman year, I will make up for it by doing an honor’s thesis at the end.如果在谈到某些缺点应该避免时,完整的表达应该说出该缺点的后果,例如:Silence can exact a high
psychological price on individuals, generating feelings of humiliation, pernicious anger, resentment and the like that, if unexpressed, contaminate every interaction, shut down creativity and undermine productivity.(过于内向可能使个人付出高昂的心理代价,心生屈辱、愤怒、怨恨,如此等等,如果宣泄,则影响交往、抑制创造、危害工作)。本句用generating分词作结果状语让表达变得完整。考试应该把平时学到的经典语法用一部分在口语面试中,但不宜过多,选择自己最擅长的。
第四,注意语音和语调的自然,不要给人留下背书的印象。
同学们可以事先准备一个模板来进行自我介绍环节的准备,在背诵熟练之后一定要多进行模拟语境下的练习,这样才会真实自然,在面试过程中如果某一个细节一时想不起来,不要停下回忆,而应该迅速跳过进入下一句,保证陈述的通顺连贯,例如:
Good afternoon, my dear professors
I am very glad to be here for this interview.First let me introduce myself.My name is XXX,22 years old.I come from ____, a beautiful city of ____ Province.Majoring in _______, I will graduated from the ______ department of XXX Universityin the comingJuly.Generally speaking, I am a hard-working student.I will try my best to finish it no matter how difficult it is.In my spare time, I have broad interests like many other youngsters.Just like my father, I am open-minded, quick in thought and very fond of football.Frequently I exchange ideas with my family during super.I like
reading books, especially those about history.These work have urged me develop active and responsible characters.I always believe that one will easily lag behind unless he keeps on learning.Of course, if I am given a chance to further my education in this famous University, I will spare no effort to master the latest knowledge in my field and make good
preparation for my future profession.If possible, I will go on with my study for doctorate degree.In a word, I am looking forward to making a solid foundation for future profession after two years study here.第五,回答时尽量使用完整的句式,规范的语法,用自己使用熟练的词汇和句型,以便充分展现自己的英语水平。
避免生僻的词汇和过于复杂的句型,以减少错误,提高准确度。这在专业英语对话中尤为重要,目前考查学生英语能力与专色素养相结合已成为面试的重要环节,也是考生要正确的高分的亮点,专业英语尤其严谨性和规范性,所以在语言精炼的同时还要主要适当表达出规范的语法,大家在准备的时候不要逐字背诵,在面试过程中也不要一个词一个词去想,最好是先构思出句子的最核心主干,再根据现场发挥利用从句、插入语等技能添加内容。例如:In 2012, an influential paper in the journal Behavioral and Brain Functions found that while most of us process emotions through the right hemisphere of the brain, about 35% of people — especially victims of trauma — process their hurt and anger through their left brain, where logic and language sit.(在2012年,一篇发表在《行为与大脑功能》期刊上的很有影响力的论文指出:我们大多数人通过右半脑来处理情感;但是还有35%的人,尤其是脑部创伤的患者,是通过左半脑来处理伤痛和愤怒情绪的,而左半脑正是逻辑和语言功能所处的位置。)本句最核心的主干是paper found that……,主干有了以后再加上修饰和内容补充,用介词短语作定语in the journal Behavioral and Brain Functions说明论文的来源,用that引导宾语从句指出论文的研究结果,在宾语从句中还可以用while most of us process emotions through the right hemisphere of the brain, about 35% of people……这个让步转折句型表达两种研究对象的差异,最后还可以用especially victims of trauma这样一个插入语进一步描述某个对象的细节特征。再看下面这个例句:Little difference in the density of matter that had been present since the beginning of the universe gradually grew larger as a result of gravitational attraction.(宇宙形成之初,物质之间在密度上几乎是没有差别的,随着地球引力的作用,物质密度的差别越来越大)。这一句难度较大,但确是许多科技英语的表达典范,difference grew larger是这一句的主干,然后用Little修饰difference,用介词短语in the density of matter修饰difference,表示“某方面的区别”,定语从句that had been present since the beginning of the universe修饰the density of matter,再用短语as a result of表达事情的因果关系,这样就是一个规范严谨的高水平表达,这种训练也可以用在笔头翻译测试中。
第六,回答完一个问题后,如果考官不急于问下一个而是微笑的看着你,这意味着考官期待你做更多的解释或表述。
这在专业英语问答中尤其重要,有一位法律考试在被问到计算机犯罪问题的时候,他如果简单
回答“严重”或“不严重”就缺乏含金量,最好大家要在负面问题的回答中提出自己的解决方案,例如:The potential consequences are perilous, so to curb crime, lawmakers should
consider more forceful deterrents and promote cyber security by increasing funding for law-enforcement personnel and for more training and equipment to investigate and
prosecute cyber criminals.“其潜在后果是危险的,所以为了抑制电脑犯罪,立法者应该考虑更加强大的威慑力量,通过为执法人员提供更多资金,并且增加资金用于更多培训和购置设备,以调查和起诉电脑犯罪分子,从而提高网络安全。
第七,注意自己的身体语言。
说话时面对考官,面带微笑,眼睛一定要看着对方,可适当用手势强调自己的意思。但身体不要晃动,不要低头和左顾右盼,形态大方得体庄重,音量保持平稳,不要过高或过低。切忌过分紧张和拘束。
第八,衣着干净、简单、大方。也不要过于成熟,尽量表现出青年人的朝气和稳重。
本文仅就复试中最重要的环节——英语口语,向大家介绍了一些基本事项,海天教育接下来也会有更加全面的复试指导课程,包括听力训练、标准句型表达、话题讨论模拟、专业英语笔译等更加详细全面的内容,敬请各位同学关注。苏州英语口语培训的周老师祝大家复试成功金榜题名!

三、提前准备,适当练习
1、见面问候语:Good morning / afternoon, dear professors.I am XXX.(Nice to meet you。)。告别用语:Thanks for your time./ Thank you for giving such a chance.I hope to see you again and soon。
2、自我介绍篇(重点)。基本上每个院校每个专业的口试中都会涉及这一方面。考官其实是要借此了解你的口头表达能力以及你的报名表之外的一些信息。自我介绍时间以2-3分钟为宜。思路要清楚,要突出重点,口语尽量流利。
1)自我介绍的主体内容
① 姓名。介绍自己姓名时,发音一定要准(南方考生要多加注意)。
② 年龄。年龄可以跟在姓名后带过(I am XXX, 25 years old)。
③ 原来的院校、专业。注意:一定要把原来学校的英文名称、专业的英文名称弄清楚(尤其是跨校、跨专业的学生)。
所属的公司、职位。注意:在职考生则应将自己公司、自己职位/职称的英文名称弄明白。
④ 性格、能力,爱好等。可以着重强调你的个性对你报考的专业有何积极的作用。如果报考的是学术性的专业,可以说自己细心(carefully,detail-oriented)、条理分明(logical)、踏实(steady)等;如果是研究性、应用性更强一点的专业,可以说自己负责(responsible)、可靠(dependable)、有效率(efficient)等。
⑤你对报考的专业有兴趣(be interested in/be fascinated with/be obsessed with„),可适当举出一些例子,如经常看相关的书籍、论文、文章、新闻等。在职考生可以强调知识教育对工作的影响: In my work, I find it necessary to broaden my horizons in communication.That’s why I long for entering your prestigious university.结束时可以用说:That’s all about me./ Well, that’s who I am.Thanks for your attention.3、未来规划——学习规划(研究生以后的方向),人生规划(短期、长期)
4、跨专业问题——老师通常会对跨专业的学生问这样一个问题:为什么会选择这个专业?不要千篇一律地回答只说“我对这个专业感兴趣”,可以把每个人都会谈到的原因简要地罗列一下,对具有自己特色的原因则可大谈特谈,详细地阐述自己的观点,让老师印象深刻。
5、专业知识——在英语口试中(非英语专业),如果老师提问专业问题,通常不会指望你能进行流利的、专业性强的阐述;但是一些专业术语的英文说法还是有必要了解一下的。
6、提出问题——在面试快结束的时候,一般老师都会问,你有没有什么要问的(Do you have any questions to ask?)。一般不适合说“I don’t have any question。”可以问考官一两个你关心的问题。
