这次我们来解决一位雅思考生的求助:特意找了外国人练口语,雅思口语成绩却连分都没有提高。我还要继续坚持下去吗?提高口语能力真的必须跟外国人对话吗?
提高英语口语能力一定要和外国人对话?事实可能恰恰相反。
外国人的意会能力其实特别强,即使你的话语错漏百出,在一定的语境下,外国人还是能明白你的意思,并且能够给予一定的回应。
当然,除非你的交流对象是一位一对一口语课老师,否则一般人不会对你的错误提出任何修改意见(因为已经能“意会”你的意思并与你继续交流了),所以你会犯错的还是会继续犯错。同时,你会因此造成一种膨胀的错觉:我与外国人沟通无障碍。
真正口语水平的提高,不能光依靠与外国人对话——更何况这不是每个中国学习者都可以拥有的环境。提高英语口语水平,需要材料的输入,需要有效的反馈。
1 材料的输入
在缺乏英文语境的情况下,最理想的提高口语的方法是利用各种原汁原味的多媒体素材(书籍、听力音频、电视剧,电影,讲座,新闻等等)去积累和练习。
朗读与背诵
朗读及背诵是最基础、最传统又十分有效的提升语感和流利度的方法。在本人读中学的年代,早读材料就是这些。
当然,所谓“背诵”不是说全篇一字不漏地背下来,背诵是可以有多种玩法的。你可以只背一段你自己喜欢的、比较多生词的、比较容易记的——你自己选择;或者你可以理解了全文的观点以后利用文章的某些语句加上你自己的理解复述下来。
观看影视作品,模仿在特定语境下的一些英文表达方式
朗读与背诵篇章的方法可以让你积累好词好句和提高流利度,而通过英语视频你能够学习更地道的口语表达。关键是你能够学会在某种情境下,英语母语使用者是怎么回应的。在这个过程中,融会贯通的能力很重要。如果你留心的话,你会发觉有一些口语表达在不同影视作品中都有出现过。这些口语表达是很常用、很地道的,你可以把它们积累下来,并且自编自导自演某个场景,像演戏一样把这个对白说出来。
例1:从 2 Broke Girls(破产姐妹)里, 我学到了一个说法:Just because … that doesn't…(不能因为_X就_X呀!)
然后在电影500 Days of Summer(和莎莫的500天)里我又碰见了同样的说法。
于是我的印象会非常深刻,我学到了教科书上、英语课堂上可能学不到的句型。又查阅了一些资料,发现有时“that”也可以省略。经过这番学习后,我可以自己创设一些场景造句把这个句型用起来:
Just because most women choose to get married, (that) doesn't mean I should do the same
Just because you fail this time, (that) doesn't mean you have to
例2:在Desperate Housewives(绝望主妇)里,我见过无数次这个说法:Is it just me or…(只有我一个人觉得_X吗?)
所以,我懂得了原来外国人表达“只有我一个人觉得_X吗?”“你不觉得_X吗?”“到底是我的原因还是真的_X呢”之类的意思时,可以用这个句型。我开始脑补一些场景自己造句:
Is it just me or is she weird today?
Is it just me or is the floor really slippery?
例3:通过观看Emma Watson 在访谈节目Ellen Show上的访问,我能学到:be like可以用于引述说话或想法。
于是,我开始自编自导自演造句:
At that time, everybody was Suddenly, he stood up and encouraged us to cheer He was like, "Come on, guys! We can make it!"
2 有效的反馈
自我检查
对于有一定基础和能力的学习者,你可以选择录音并自己重听,你应该有能力发现一些基本错误,例如he/she混淆,三单缺s,时态错误等等。
专业反馈
当然,对于大部分学员,如果想得到更精准的反馈和建议,需要请老师帮你听录音并纠正。传统课程、网课、一对一、小班都可以,需要要花费一定的价钱,但你将能得到你自己自学或单纯与外国人瞎(尬)聊所不能获得的反馈,相信这是值得的。
综上所述,通过有效的积累、总结和模仿,加上有效的反馈,我相信就算缺乏英语交流环境也可以练成地道的口语。

1-4月雅思口语新题part2范文之:喜爱的广告(advertisement)
There are several types of advertisements that we see daily on TV, billboards, through the Internet, social networking sites, mobile applications, and mobile Many of them are very banal, full of marketing speech and kind of boring while others are average and their primary focus is to express the positive sides of a product to increase the Finally, quite a few of them are creative, informative, humorous, fascinating and
I usually do not like to watch advertisement between a movie/ TV programme and large commercial breaks are quite annoying to I personally think that the best way of advertising is using billboards, which can lead you to remember the brand name forever without actually annoying
Well, the best advertisement I have ever seen that I still like for its uniqueness was on a highway in the United Arab Emirates and I really liked the idea of this One day while passing the main road a big billboard caught my It was designed to look like the filtration zone of a cigarette which is commonly known as the cigarette The large billboard was quite different in shape and it presented the message ‘Stop smoking even Marlboro’ quite
I stole a glance at the billboard and thought about the message it I actually did not think much and forgot about After an hour I found myself in front of a beach with a packet of Marlboro cigarette in my While I was lighting a cigarette, I was wondering why I bought a packet of Marlboro? It is usually not my brand! To my surprise, I realised that the advertisement that I saw on the road had an immense effect on my psychology I was convinced that the billboard had forced me to buy that brand I think it was the first time I realised how advertisements can target people's unconscious Technically speaking this is the moment I realised that the best way to influence people’s buying behaviour is to use their unconscious mind instead of trying to deliver marketing When I thought more to analyse the billboard advertising and its effect on me, I realised that the advertiser tried to use reverse advertising techniques by delivering the message that Marlboro is less dangerous and smokers who wish to quit smoking should try Possibly all smokers- from light smokers to heavy ones, wish a day without smoking though many of them do not try Then the billboard advertisement was pretending as if they were broadcasting an important public safety Moreover, they used a fascinating design on the billboard that would actually grab anyone's As you can see, they were quite successful as I still remember this advert very vividly and I like this advertisement due to the creative thinking of the

雅思口语学习方法一,怎样用英文简单界定一个东西的技巧。
美国人和美国人交谈80%是想告诉对方这个事物是什么。例如:Where is the book?(这本书在哪儿?)很少有人说What is a book?(书是什么?)而美国的小学生就开始问:What is the book?这种Where is the book?只是思维的描述阶段,而要真正表达自己的思想,就要说What is a book?
雅思口语学习方法二,要训练How to explain things in different ways?(用不同的方式解释同一事物)。
因为事物就一个,但表达它的语言符号可能会很多。这就要多做替换练习,但不是仅仅语言层面的替换。比如,I love 中国学生的替换方法就把you换成her,my mother等,但 这种替换没有对智力构成挑战,没有启动思维;如果美国人来替换就会说I want to kiss you, I want to hug you, I will show my heart to 等,或者给对方讲电影《泰坦尼克》。也 就是说用一种不同的方式表达同一个意思,或者一个表达方式对方听不清楚,举一个简单易懂的例子来表达,直到对方明白。
雅思口语学习方法三,学会美国人描述东西的方法。
描述方法中外也有很大差异,从时间上来说,中国人是按自然的时间顺序来描述,当我们描述一个东西突然停住时,往往最后说的那个地方是最重要的;美国人在描述上却是先把最重 要的东西说出来,然后再说陪衬的东西。
雅思口语学习方法四,要学会使用当地习语。
不容易学、易造成理解困惑的东西就是“习语”。习语就是每个单词你都认识,但把它们组合在一起,你就不知道是什么意思了。比如北京人说盖了帽儿了,外国人很难理解,这就是 习语。所以和美国人交流,能适当地运用当地习语,他马上就会觉得很亲切,也很爱和你交流。
雅思口语学习方法五,学会两种语言的传译能力。
这是衡量口语水平的一个最重要标准。因为英语不是我们的母语,我们天生就有自己的母语。很多人都认为学好外语必须丢掉自己的母语,这是不对的。
雅思口语学习方法六,要有猜测能力。
为什么同一国家的人交流很少产生歧义,就是因为他们之间能“猜测”。教学不提倡“猜测”。但猜测对学好美国口语很重要。在交流中,有一个词你没有听懂,你不可能马上去查字 典,这时候就需要猜测来架起一座桥梁来弥补这个缺口,否则交流就会中断。很多中国学生学习口语讲究背诵,背句型、背语调,结果就是很多人讲口语的时候讲着讲着眼就开始向上翻,实 际上是在记忆中寻找曾经背过的东西。如果他要是能猜测的话,也就不会出现这种现象
话题库(10)
影响英语口语流利程度的一个重要心理因素就是怕出错。中国学生在回答为什么害羞不敢与老外交谈时最通常的回答就是:“我怕出错。”常见的症状就是一句话出口前,先想好中文,再在心里把它译成英语,然后再出口,这样即便是说出来的话滴水不漏,语流的连贯性上也大打折扣。口试是口语考试,关键是交际能力。我们不能要求口语和书面语一样毫无差错。相反,如果口语说得像书面语一样四平八稳、准确无误,反而让人觉得不得体。
口语和书面语是两种不同的风格。考生既然进了考场,都是有备而来的。这时的最佳心理状态就是认识到学习语言不可能不出错。要相信人在情急之下的潜能超水平发挥。考官提出问题后,最好能在5秒钟内就开始回答。
放松的心态。中国考生尤其要注意的问题就是注意听考官的问题。通常的情况是考生们太紧张或是太急于表现自己,没有听清楚考官的指示。在第一种情况下,考生通常是比较少和外国人接触,有“恐外症”。西安雅思中国网larry有个学生就是这样,一进考场就懵了,后来他回忆,其实大部分题目在西安雅思中国网 larry提供的机经中都有,只是当时太紧张,根本没有听懂。考官还很耐心地给他解释了题目,他都没有把握住机会。可见紧张是怎样的误事。如果你也有这种情况,唯一的办法就是多找外国人聊天,克服对高鼻子蓝眼睛的恐惧。
如果是第二种情况,你完全可以要求考官复述一遍题目(Beg you pardon; Will you repeat that, please?, ),或者解释一下(What do you mean by that? ),因为有的题目确实是考生从没考虑过的,提这样的要求是合理的,不会被扣分,因为这也同样是交际的一个方面,没听懂硬扛着或瞎猜,只能被扣分。问清楚问题再答总好过没弄清乱答。
对自己的口语充满自信。说话犹豫、经常停顿、不断重复同一个词,是考生容易出现的问题,也是最容易让考官扣分的地方,因为流利程度是最重要的评分标准之一。这些问题的出现主要是因为考生对自己的口语不自信,总觉得自己的口语不够标准,或者担心自己词汇不够,到时说不出来,认为“巧媳妇难为无米之炊”。实际上有几千词就够“炊”的了(简明朗文英英字典的英文解释以及美国之音特别节目所用词汇都只有几千词)。假如把一位未受教育的澳大利亚老太太十天内所说过的话记录下来,其词汇量也许不超过一千!但任何人都不会怀疑她的英语口头表达能力。

Refrigerator有两个词义:中文和英语。
见到英语refrigerator你“说”中文“电冰箱”,你就不是一种“学”英语“用”英语行为,你的英语也得不到“运用”,你只是在“用”中文:用中文识英语。

两道题目很简单:
Q1: Did you like studying science subjects when you were younger?
Q2: Do you think studying science subjects is important?
一道事实,一道观点
先来说这道观点题
口语考试很忌讳答一些冠冕堂皇的X话。
很多同学把中文屁话翻译成英文,以为可以搪塞考官,怕是把考官当自己的高中老师了。
从小我们的中文教育会训练大家多讲宏观的东西,比如:
“科学是人类认识和改造世界的工具”
“科学囊括了万事万物的运行规律”
“科学是人类智慧的高度结晶”
“科学是人类文明进步的推动器”
这种假大空、形而上、以赞美歌颂为主要目的X话,我们很小就会说了,因为考试考的多,所以修辞修得亲妈都不认识了。
了解一下Native Speakers 受到过的教育和培训你就知道,为什么考试的时候考官会经常不动声色地流露出悲伤和绝望的气息?
因为他们只想听具象的内容、具体的描述、细节支撑、例子证实、对比分析等等,不想听诗朗诵。
比如这样一位同学的答案:
Q: Do you think studying science subjects is important?
A: Yes, I think science is really important because it's relevant to our daily life .
For the public,Science is included the nature、 the world also ourselves, even the
So if we want to know the world well, we must study some basic
Also Science is the key of develop human
纠错:
①此回答的第一处问题是把 science subjects 一步登天直接抽象到 science (even the universe)
②第二个问题,没有站得住脚的论证过程:原因1息息相关囊括万物+原因2人类文明推动器,没有例子证实息息相关,如果我不想know the world well我也可以不学科学对吧,做个无知的人也挺快乐的;人类文明进步只能证明科学的重要性不能证明“理化生还是要好好学的”,而且也没有例子。
整个答案说了等于没说!!
③其他错误:
Science is included 常见动词误用,include就是包括了,不需要被动
the key of develop 介词的宾语:名词(development)动名词(developing)
再来看,答案方向与上文相似,但有一定进步的:
比如下面这位同学:
Q: Do you think studying science subjects is important?
A: Yes, Because in my opinion,science plays a vital role even just in our daily
For instance,without basic knowledge of it we would never tell the weather for the next day, no mention of the appropriate clothes to
so only when we study science,can we have the chance to keep the close tie with the
点评:
无论讲得怎么样,这个同学好歹是有意识去举例子的。
考官面前,举例子和不举例子的人,不在同一个赛道上。
不过U1S1,预测天气这事情,大家已经脱离了看云看草看燕子低飞的低级趣味了,天气预报挺好用的,可以换一个例子,比如生物学知识让我知道综合维生素都是智商税。
细节错误:
no mention of 是“未提及”,
not to mention to 才是“更不必说”
在简单的喜好型问题面前,大家也会暴露出没有细节的问题,比如下面这个同学
Q: Did you like studying science subjects when you were younger?
A: Yes,when I was in primary school, Science is one of my favourite
这是比较极端的一种情况,接下来考生肯定会因为考官——连环追问why?why?why?而陷入被动的。P1答题的长度是用时间来衡量的,一道P1平均20~25s。
与之相对的,就是有的同学知道该讲 事实型细节并且努力呈现的:
Absolutely I studied a lot of science subjects when I was in school, like observing the plant cellular structure which is so
It will open the new world for you through studying a variety of things about the nature you ever know
Anyway, Science is amazing!
点评:
U1S1 长度还是有点短,不过讲到植物细胞结构,已经是非常直接扣题的例子了。
很多同学会在这里吐槽,雅思口语不是不考专业知识么?
其实人家顺手举一个自己很熟的例子而已,你不会你别吵吵,你可以用别的:
studying the interesting changes happening inside a tube化学实验
observing cells of plants and animals under the microscope生物实验
verifying Galileo’s theory by repeating his famous experiment物理实验。

中国考生在练习口语的时候最大的问题是什么呢?
根据笔者多年的观察,许多考生学习英语多年却未曾突破,最大的原因不是方法问题而是态度问题。也就是说,大家一直在找方法,在各种方法之间选择,最重要的行动却没有。考生们可以想想,我们在学母语的时候有方法吗?
笔者自己的口语比一般非英语专业的学生好。原因总结为以下三点,供大家借鉴:
1)大学时的大量练习。由于笔者是学校英语协会的会长,每周都要为会员组织英语活动,等于变相地在当老师。
后来在英国读教育心理学才发现能达到最好效果的学习方式,就是learning by teaching others(教会别人)。很多老师英语不错,一是底子好,二是一直不断在用,不断在想办法教会别人,所以自然就保持得好。
2)口语练习是从可以蹦词、到蹦短语、再到蹦句子,这样一个从简单到复杂的过程,和婴儿学习语言并无两样。
能看懂的是被动知识,用说出来的才是语言能力。我们中国的语言教学最大的问题就是把语言知识等同于语言能力了。语言知识是语言能力的基础,但不是自动等于能力。就好比,你读了10本游泳的学术著作,你对游泳的知识已经很丰富了,但你不下水,不去游,你还是一点也不具备游泳的能力。这种情况下掉下水,即便你学富五车,一样会被淹死。
3)在缺乏真实语言环境的境况下,外语口语能力的保持要靠每天的听力练习。语言的学习听力要先行。你能听懂心里起码不慌。听的多了,自然就能下意识的讲出来,讲不出来,就是听的还不够多。你能不能说出,是(yes)和不(no)?当然可以。其他不行,是因为练习的量不到位。所以要练就一口漂亮的口语就是这样,要坚持。
语言是否地道除了表面的语音语调问题其实更深层的问题是思维的问题。思维的问题是最根本的。经常有雅思考生问,范老师,每次我说英语的时候脑袋里总是先想中文,然后再把中文转化成英语,回答时总是很慢,这是我学习方法的错误还是由于不熟练?
我回复说用英语思维是学习英语最高境界。一门语言你如果习得成功了,那么用一个成语来讲就是“得意忘形”。得到了语言的意思,忘记了语言的形状。这位同学讲英语的时候脑子里还要过中文,然后解码成英文,说明对英语这门语言,还没有习得成功,还在学习之中。
那么怎样习得?有没有灵丹妙药?
捷径真的没有。语言从学习(learning)到习得(acquisition/acquired)中间的这个过程很长。如果是母语大概需要12-24个月,也就是2岁。在这24个月里面,你大概一共要主动、被动地做将近7000个小时的听力训练。
我们可以算算,考生在考四级听力、六级听力、雅思、托福听力之前做过多少小时的听力训练?
我的新浪微博曾经介绍过一篇10000小时理论的文章。说的是任何一个领域的专家需要至少10000个小时的练习才能成为这个领域的专家。
要达到用英语去思维足够的听力输入量和练习量是第一个基础因素。除了足够的练习量之外如果你不出国,在国内你很难真正达到用英语去思考。因为语言是文化和思维的外衣。考生是吃大米、白面、看马恩列毛邓长大的,咱们的思维和那边吃牛肉、什么都看的西方人思维是不可能一样的。
所以,不要为了追求用英语思维而去学英语。没意义。至少我达不到这个水平。我能做到的是和老外聊天轮到我张嘴的时候,我的脑子里不过中文,这算不算用英语思维?我认为不算。
总之,雅思口语的高分需要的是坚持练习。态度比方法重要。英语这门相对简单的语言只要坚持去学了一定会好起来的。
