相信考鸭们都知道,之前三月中旬的时候,为了支持烤鸭们宅家备考,在线上授课平台Future Learn上推出了免费的线上备考课程,包括听说读写四门。很多小伙伴可能没来得及去看这个网课,今天小编就给大家分享,我看的雅思口语网课的内容:
1. 「流利度和连贯性」解析
「流利度和连贯性」是给出的口语四个评分标准之一,其余三个分别是「发音」、「语法多样性及准确性」和「词汇多样性」。
来看看网课主讲就 “Fluency and Coherence”给出的解释:
For fluency and coherence, the examiner judges how well you can speak without long pauses, and the way that you join your ideas and speech together to make it natural and easy to understand.
我把他的英文翻译成以下几个问句,大家练习的时候自测下:
1. 我的回答停顿多不多?
2. 每次停顿的时间都很长吗?
3. 我在组织内容时,有没有做到衔接自然,便于对方理解?
此外,讲座中还重申了「流利度和连贯性」的六分标准。
我把中文版本贴在下面,万年5.5的同学好好品一品:
1. 表现出充分交流的意愿,但有时由于偶尔的重复、自我纠正或犹豫而缺乏连贯性
2. 能使用一系列连接词及语篇标记,但无法保持一贯
也就是说, 6分其实要求真的不高。你只需要做到愿意表达更多细节, 即使有的时候说话有停顿;运用一些连接词和语篇标记,有些地方用的不恰当也没大碍。
结合之前的内容,我们来总结下「流利度和连贯性」的几个重点:
回答时少有长时间停顿
有足够的细节拓展
灵活使用连接词和语篇标记
网课就「细节拓展」,「连接词和语篇标记」两个方面提供了不少实用技巧。
2.细节拓展不够怎么办
在评论互动板块,有学生问怎么样才能多说点细节,educator给了两个拓展技巧。
1.PEEL
Point: Well, I think that....
Explain: because...
Example: For example, ...
Link: So, that is why I would say that...
这个方法足够简单,实操性强。所谓PEEL拓展法就是按照先后顺序,先给观点,对观点做解释,给出相应例子,最后简单总结,回到问题主干。
2. 拓展why
来看看给的例子:
Do you like animals?
don’t just say ‘yes’ or ‘no’ (不要只回答yes / no )
Well, yes, I do like animals but I don’t have any pets because I live in a really small flat and I don’t think it’s fair to keep a pet in such a small space. I’m also only at home a few hours each day.
讲真,我觉得给的这个回答逻辑性不强。 问你喜不喜欢动物,为啥回答的重点放在了解释自己不养宠物?
3. 衔接的重要性
做到回答衔接自然,我们必须先了解两个术语,一个是「连接词」,另一个是「语篇标记」。
「连接词」指的是连接内容的词或短语,例如so / but / and / because。
「语篇标记」的定义有些模糊,大家可以把这类词和短语想像成路标,用来指明回答的走向。比如大家都知道的fisrtly / secondly / lastly 就属于这类。
这两种衔接手段的威力,大家可以通过对比下面两组回答感受下,注意我标粗的地方。
My father is 50. He works in a bank. He has worked there for 20 years. He doesn't like his job.
My father's 50, and he works in a bank, where he's been working for over 20 years. Even though he's been there a long time, he hates it, especially the long hours.
同样的内容,第二个回答明显在连贯性方面更棒,使用了更多连接词和语篇标记,回答更加有细节,而且内容之间有了关联。
「流利度和连贯性」要拿到6分以上,大家要在回答中运用一系列的连接词和语篇标记。你只会用and / so / because 往往不够,丰富度很重要。另一方面,不要过度使用衔接手段,不然你的口语会听起来非常机械。
贴心地给出了连接词和语篇标记参考,我给大家做了摘抄,重点看标粗的地方。以下的内容建议多复习回顾,把这些词和短语不断运用到你的口语中,直到烂熟于心。光看看没用的。(此条发给我的学生们)
1. 举例
There are lots of reasons why I prefer living in the city. It’s much easier to find all the services you want, for example. (for instance)
2. 对比
The city tends to be noisier and more polluted, while the countryside is obviously quieter and has cleaner air. (比较级)
3. 比较
My parents don’t tend to wear traditionally formal clothes like suits or dresses. Likewise, I much prefer more informal clothing. (likewise 副词,同样地)
I think my home town is exactly the same as any other town of the same size in my country.
4. 补充
Apart from those traditional meat dishes I mentioned, there are also lots of well-known desserts from my region.
Good public transport can definitely make life easier for many people as well as helping to keep pollution levels lower. (as well as,也)
5. 强调
It’s worth pointing out that these days the internet is more and more widespread in my country.
A good primary education is particularly important I think.
6. 结果
I don’t really have time to read much these days. This means that I just look at the newspapers online when I have a spare few minutes.
7. 排序和过渡
The first point I’d like to make is that most people just don’t have time to read at length these days, and that’s one important factor.
The other thing I’d say is that prices have to come down in order to be attractive for more people.
8. 给理由
My family all have to walk to work and that’s due to the fact that there’s no bus service in our village.
I haven’t had a chance to go running for some time, as a result of the weather we’ve had recently.
My Thoughts
课上练习的时候,如果有学生出现卡壳,我会鼓励他们反思:刚才为什么会有停顿?
是不是这个话题对你来很陌生,不知道该说什么?
是不是内容有,但英文不知道该怎么说,在想某个词对应的英文是什么?
是脑子因为紧张而短路?
可能平时英文说得太少了,嘴唇肌肉根本不适应英文的发音方式?...
每个学生给我的回答,都不一样。
各位在练习口语时,不妨多问问自己,分析一下自己的短板,再结合自己的薄弱点做突击巩固。
做到这一点,相信你的口语能说得更好。
