当我们参加一个面试,一次约会,都会想要给对方留下一个好的印象,或者说希望赢得对方的好感。目的很简单,希望好感可以为面试加分。雅思口语考试也是如此,我们需要做的就是充分发挥出自己的平时所学,最好还能给考官留下好印象。

6分 VS 8分

Do you like your university?

6分表达: Yes. My teachers are very good and I have lots of friends there.

点评:这个可以说是典型的6分答案了,所说把问题讲清楚了,但是用词和语句都太过于简单了,回答更是无力,你确定2句话就把它打发了??

8分表达: Yes I do. I think my university's great, because I mean, firstly, the teachers there are all really good, you know, I've learnt a huge amount from them. And another thing I really like about my university is the friends I've made there.

点评:类似于I mean, you know 这类是比较native的口头表达,并不难学。但是烤鸭们要切记,一定不能用过量。简简单单的去剖析细节,分数就比笼统的一句话来的漂亮。

Do you prefer eating at home or eating in a restaurant?

6分表达: I prefer eating at home because it's healthier than eating out.

点评:很好,给出了原因,但是还是可以再往深处挖一点点,再加一点口语化的词汇,例如Simply Because这类词组,才能给考官一个给你高分的理由~

8分表达: I'd say I generally prefer eating at home, simply because the food I eat at home is a lot healthier than the food you get in most restaurants.

点评:是不是觉得很native~ I’d say, simply because大家可以学着用起来, the food I eat at home is a lot healthier,解释了前文所说的为什么喜欢在家里吃饭的原因,比较级的运用可以算是小小地show off一下。

Would you like to move to another city in the future?

6分表达: No, because I love my hometown.

点评:如此的答案,未免令人有一种此考生异常 “冷艳” ,“无法深入交流”的错觉。如此简短的句子如何能展示你的口语能力,让考官心服口服给你个高分?

8分表达: No I wouldn't, the main reason being that I love my hometown, so if I moved somewhere else, I'm sure I wouldn't be as happy as I am living here.

点评:同样是歌颂家乡好,话锋一转,在这个表达中就柔和了许多。虚拟语气的运用显示出了较好的语言功底。理由(reasons)和例子(examples)在口语中是非常非常重要的得分点!!!

雅思口语考试是我们在雅思四个考试科目里唯一一个能够与考官面对面交谈、展现我们的人格魅力的机会,当然不能错过这绝无仅有的可以争取考官好感的机会啦!获得考官好感确实会对你的考试有所帮助。但“好感”这些都只是锦上添花,想要拿到理想的分数,最核心的肯定还是要在正确的方向上勤加练习!
