口試測驗技巧第二篇:掌握主題: Part 2

IELTS 雅思測驗口試第二部分

考官會發給你一張卡,卡上有一個主題,也會提供你一支鉛筆和一張紙 – 如有需要,你可以在紙上打草稿做筆記。在你開始作答前,你有60秒的時間思考。

  1. 11至14分鐘
  2. 三個部分
  3. 第一部分: 回答與你本身相關的問題,包含你的國家、城市。
  4. 第二部分: 有兩分鐘的時間完全由你回答問題。
  5. 第三部分: 回答與第二部分相關的問題。
  6. 評分的標準以你的流暢度,字彙,文法以及發音為主。

開口回答前的技巧

  1. 仔細看清楚題目。把想回答的關鍵字寫在紙上。
  2. 確定你詳細閱讀了題目所有的部分– 總共有四個部分,你要盡量回答所有的問題。
  3. 快速決定要回答的話題,這樣你才會有較多的時間來計劃要說的內容。
  4. 把你想說的內容關鍵字寫在提供的紙上 – 你不會有時間把你想講的句子一一寫出的。

回答時的技巧

  1. 記得要思考時態 – 如果你是在描述過去的事件,大部分你所說的應該都是過去式。
  2. 如果你犯了錯,訂正自己的錯誤是沒問題的 – 但是如果只是犯了一兩個錯誤,不用太擔心 – 把你想的事物有效率地表達出來才是最重要的。
  3. 在這兩分鐘裡盡量地說話 – 如果在第一分鐘你已經說完想說的,你可以停止,但是盡量抓住機會展現你的語言技巧。
  4. 如果有足夠的時間,記得回答所有的問題 – 考生們常常在沒回答所有問題前就停止回答。

IELTS 雅思測驗口試第二部分的範例

Describe a sports event you enjoyed watching.

You should say

  1. what kind of event it was
  2. where and when you saw the event
  3. who you were with

And explain why you enjoyed it so much

第一個回答範例

看看以下的回答,你可以找出多少錯誤?

Examiner: Alright Iverson, remember you have two minutes for this, so don't worry if I stop you. I'll tell you when the time is up.

Iverson: OK.

Examiner: Could you start now please?

Iverson: The event I choose is NBA. I watch the event in my home on TV. Sometimes I watch it with my friends. It is very exciting, so I can relax myself. I enjoy it because … it's so exciting … er …sometimes I also watch baseball. It is very popular because of one player from Taiwan. He is Wang Chien-ming. He plays for the Yankees. Every Taiwanese person can see him and want to achieve what he has done. Er … one day I would like to go to New York and see his team play. If I go there I will also be able to travel around the US and do some sightseeing. Er… right now I don't have money for this, but, er … is that enough?

Examiner: Thank you Iverson, that's fine. Would you like to watch a similar sports event again?

Iverson: Yeah, what? NBA or baseball?

Examiner: Well, either.

Iverson: Yes.

第一個回答範例的問題

Iverson 沒有把題目看清楚 – 應該是一個過去的活動或事件,也就是說這是一個遊戲或是競賽,而不是一個持續性的。
Iverson的描述全都是用現在式,而題目是要求他描述一個過去發生的事情。
Iverson沒有好好地計劃他的回答,所以他用的字彙非常有限,也很快地講完他可以想到要講的內容。
Iverson沒有完整地回答問題 – 他沒有回答NBA是個什麼樣的體育活動,也沒有說他為什麼喜歡這個活動。
因為他沒有把第一件事完整描述,就開始講第二件事,然後之後就完全離題了,開始講他未來的計劃。
他的回答不夠長。

第二個回答範例

現在看看這的回答: 為什麼比較好?

Examiner: Now, Kobe, remember you have two minutes for this, so don't worry if I stop you. I'll tell you when the time is up.

Kobe: OK.

Examiner: Could you start now please?

Kobe: Thanks. I'd like to talk about a soccer, or football match that I saw last week, a game between Croatia and Germany in the Euro 2008 football championship. It's not so well known in Taiwan, so I watched the game online at my friend's house on a live stream – he's really into football. It was very late at night because of the time difference – the game was played in Austria. As I say, I was with my friend, and another one of our classmates also came over to watch.
I don't really follow football normally, but I really enjoyed the game because it was so close. Germany are the more famous team, so we were very excited that the underdog, Croatia, managed to play so well. The atmosphere was really good because there were thousands of supporters from both countries, singing songs and waving flags.
The game was very close, but eventually Croatia went two goals ahead. Germany got a consolation goal at the end, but Croatia's defence was too tough for them to get an equaliser. The Germans were obviously very disappointed, but the Croatian supporters were over the moon.
So anyway, I didn't know much about either team before I watched the match, but I really enjoyed it because of the great atmosphere, and because it was so close right to the end. I'm hoping to see more games next week when …

Examiner: Thank you Kobe, that's two minutes. Would you like to go to a similar sports event again?

Kobe: Absolutely. As I was about to say, I'm hoping to follow the rest of the tournament online.

Examiner: Thanks. Moving on to part three, …

Kobe的回答好很多,因為他選了一個真正的活動,也針對每一個部分的問題做個人意見的回答。他也使用正確的時態,也試著廣泛地使用字彙。
IELTS口試測驗技巧勞記 – 在考試中,你要講你有興趣的話題。如果你對特定的運動有興趣,或是有其他的嗜好或興趣,記得要把這些話題應有的字彙查出,才能詳細地描述這些事件。
