1、提高雅思口语的小贴士提高雅思口语小贴士 所有烤鸭都知道练习雅思口语最好的方法就是说出来！不过这听起来简单，做起来却很难很多烤鸭说着说着就没激情了，练着练着就没头绪了。怎么让你的口语练习更有效率呢？下面给大家介绍10条小方法，让你能变着法儿地提高口语哦！Improve your IELTS speaking skills 10 tipsThe aim of this lesson is to give you different practice activities for the speaking test. While most of the activities are based on

2、 IELTS speaking questions, the idea is to improve your skills and not just practise answering questions. The reason for this is that practice tests are not enough by themselves; if you want to get better, you need to improve how you speak and that means thinking about speaking as a skill.1. Record y

3、ourself and then write down your answer 自己录音再写下答案This is something everyone should try. It is almost certainly a bad idea to write your answer first and then speak it. This is because we speak and write in very different ways and it is a mistake to try and train yourself to speak in the way you writ

4、e. But you can learn a lot from recording what you say and then writing that down word for word.这个方法每个人都要试一下！先写答案再说出来绝对不是个好方法！因为说话和写作是不一样的，用写作的方式来训练口语是行不通滴但是你可以通过录下自己的答案，再一字一句地听着写下来，这样会进步很多Things you can learn are:这样你可以了解到： Do you say enough? Do you give very short answers? In parts 1 and 3, you sho

5、uld say at least a couple of sentences in answer to every question. 你说够了吗？答案会不会太短？在Part1和Part3，回答每个问题至少要说几个句子。 Is what you say organised? Can you see a structure to your answer? Is it possible to put in sentences and paragraph breaks? Do you have some organisation language like “The first point is.”

6、 你是如何组织的？答案中看得出结构吗？能把句子和段落放到这个结构中吗？有没有结构性的语言？ Do you speak too slowly or too quickly? Try counting the words in your part 2 answer. Most of my answers as a native speaker are about 240 words long. You should probably aim for around 200 or so. Less than that and you are speaking too slowly, but if yo

7、u have more than that, it may be that you are speaking too quickly. 有没有说得过快或过慢？试着数一下Part2 你的答案的字数，一般native speaker能说到240字左右，烤鸭们一般要写到200 字左右。如果字数少于这个值，那说明你讲话太慢，如果超过了，说明你讲话太快 How long are your pauses? You can pause, but your pauses should generally come between sentences/paragraphs and they shouldnt b

8、e more than 2/3 of seconds 你停顿多久？一般应该在句子和段落间停顿，而且不超过2-3秒。 Did you answer the question? 你回答清楚问题了吗？ Is your pronunciation okay? If you cant immediately understand what you say, the examiner wont either! 你的语音可以吗？如果你不能听懂自己在说什么，那考官也不会听懂。 Are there some words you repeat a lot? You probably shouldnt worry

9、too much about content words such as “television” native speakers will repeat those a lot when speaking. Rather you should look at more functional words/phrases such as “I think”. Its very easy to repeat these a lot and it is also quite simple to train yourself to use more variety. 有没有重复很多词？不要担心重复实义

10、词，即使是native speaker也会一直重复，因为你讲的就是这个东西不过，你应该 重点检查功能词汇，比如“I think” ，烤鸭们很容易老师重复这些词，不过让自己练习用不同的词也不是难事。This is an exercise I use a lot in my own classroom and I find that most everyone has a telephone that records and the quality on that is just fine.2. Do it first in your own language 先用母语说This is perha

11、ps an unusual piece of advice. In the speaking, you should aim to be thinking and speaking in English as much as possible and not translating from your language to English. It can, however, sometimes help to practise the long turn part 2 in your own language first:一般来说，最好是能用英语思维思考，并用英语回答。但是像Part2这种比

12、较长的题目， 先用母语说可能会好一点。 some people struggle to speak in their own language for 2 minutes: they prefer short/concise answers and not longer more discussion type answers. So before you try it in English, make sure you can do it in your first language. 有的人就算用自己的语言说，也会很困难，他们会说一些短句子，而不是讨论型的长句子，所以，在你用英语表达之前，

13、 先让你自己用母语能够说清楚。 it helps you understand how long 2 minutes is and how much you need to say to fill that time 这会帮你了解2分钟有多长，能说多少东西 if you record and listen to yourself in your first language, you will probably find yourself using quite a lot of “structure” language such as “As I mentioned before”. Thi

14、s is a lot of the language you need for part 2. 如果用母语录音然后听，你可能会发现自己用了很多结构性语句，比如“像我之前说到的”，这就是在第二部分你需要用 到的！3. Dont practise the whole part 2, do it bit by bit 不要一口吃成胖子，练习第二部分，慢慢来！Some people find part 2 frightening because they are worried they cant speak for 2 minutes. Relax. You dont have to. Its mu

15、ch easier than that, you need to speak for不要担心2分钟很长，其实你要说的不过是：20秒+20秒+20秒+1分钟！ 20 seconds 20 seconds 20 seconds I minuteThis is because there are always 4 points for you to talk about on the cue card. You want to try practising talking about the first 3 points on the cue card for about 20 seconds ea

16、ch (the who, where, what type questions). Make sure you dont say “last year”, but you extend that a little . Then all you need to do is talk for 1 minute on the longer question at the end that is almost always about explaining something.因为在题目卡上总是会有4个要点，你可以先练习前三点分别说20秒，不要太简略，稍微扩展一点。然后用最后一分钟来解释。4. Pra

17、ctise by describing photographs 通过描述照片来练习！In the exam of course you dont get any photograph to help you. It would probably be easier if you did because when you have a photograph, you can see what you need to talk about. The idea is here that if you learn to see pictures as you are speaking, you fin

18、d more things to say. I suggest:考试时，并没有照片给你提示，如果有的话可能会容易一点，因为你就知道要说什么了所以平时可以拿照片来练习，让自己找到更多可说的！以下是几个建议： find a picture about an IELTS topic e.g. a picture of a wedding describe what you see 找一些跟考试题目相关的照片 then try talking about the same topic without the picture 然后不用照片试着将同样的事情 in the exam itself, all

19、you need to do is imagine a picture in your head 在考试中，自己想想一张图片What I strongly suggest is that you look at your own photographs, as what you will need to speak about are your own memories. 而且强烈建议看你自己的照片，因为你需要说的是你自己的memories5. Read then speak 先读再说！It helps to practise reading and speaking together bec

20、ause reading gives you words and sometimes ideas. This idea is a very simple one. When you read a passage in English, you should then try and summarise what it says speaking. The ways this works is: 先读英语，然后试着用自己的话把它复述出来。这可以训练你： to summarise a reading text, you are going to need to use some of the wo

21、rds used in it 总结阅读文本，抓住关键词 if you say the word aloud, you have learnt that word better and are more likely to us fit for yourself in the future 当你大声说出来，能能学好这个词，并且以后自己用着更顺口 if the text is longer, you should find yourself having to list the different points it contains. This should help the coherence

22、 of your speaking as you will need to use language like “Firstlythen next ”etc 如果文章太长，那么应该自己找到几个要点，如果用一些逻辑联系词会让你说起来更连贯Two extremely good sources for this type of reading is 6 minute English and my favourite Words in the News. It sometimes helps to choose 5 words from the text you are reading that yo

23、u want to use when you speak.6. Improve your memory write your life history 提高记忆力，写自己的故事Parts 1 and 2 of the speaking test are personal questions about who you are (part 1) and what you have done (part 2). One reason why some candidates have problems is not the language, but that they cant think of

24、things to say. The solution is simple refresh your memory about important events in your life before the test.Part1 和Part2 主要是关于你自己的一些问题，有些烤鸭的问题不在于用什么语言说，而是他们根本想不到要说什么。那么就在考试前重温一下、回忆一下你生活中的重要事情吧！The idea is not so much to practise exam questions (its hard to predict those), but to practise speaking

25、about your memories of people, events, places and things. Do that and the exam should be simpler as you have memories you can use. Write down some personal memories and then try speaking about them. Some ideas here are:这不是要练习考试题目，只是练习说出自己记得的人、事、物、地方。如果你能这样做，考试会容易很多。 think of important/interesting pe

26、ople in your life: Ask yourself: When did you meet them? How long have you known them? Why are they important/interesting? Can you remember something you did together? What about a conversation you had with them? think of important events in your life: Ask yourself: What it was? Where did it happen?

27、 Who were you with at the time? What else was happening in your life then? What one thing stands out in your memory about it? How well do you remember it? think of places you have been to: Ask yourself: Where it was? How did you get there? In what detail can you describe the place? Can you describe

28、the general area it is in? Would you want to go back there? think of your possessions: Ask yourself: How long have you owned it? Where did you get it? Is it special or something normal? How often do you use it? Do you associate with someone else?7. Practise saying “I dont know” 练习说“I dont know”Anoth

29、er reason why some candidates go wrong in the exam is that they feel they have to give a complete answer to very question and they think of IELTS as some academic test. It isnt. Its simply a test of your language. In parts 1 and 3, you may well be asked questions that you have very little to say abo

30、ut. Thats not a problem, theres always another question coming. The big mistake is to try and give a full answer when you have nothing to say. What happens is that your language becomes confused and so do you, with the result that things get and worse and worse.All you need to do is say you dont kno

31、w and explain why and then wait for the next question. This may take a little practice. You want to build a set of phrases such as:Q. What colour is your favourite room and why did you choose that colour?A. Im not sure what to say about that. Its not a question Ive ever thought about before. I suppo

32、se yellow is just my favourite colour and so I painted my room yellow?8. Talk to a mirrorThis is another strange sounding piece of advice, but it can be very practical especially if you dont have a speaking partner. The idea is that when you practise speaking, you should sit in front of a mirror and speak to yourself. It can work because: eye contact is extremely important in all parts of th
