雅思口語要如何提高?這些誤區要避免
雅思口語如何提高?爲什麼考來考去都只有那麼點分?看看這些誤區你有沒有中招吧?
01 句子不要太長，語速不要過快
很多同學在口語考試中遇到自己準備過的話題，或者緊張的時候，就容易出現說話不斷句，語速越來越快的問題，其實並不是語速快、句子長就能顯示出你的英語口語很好。
相反，雅思口語考試是一個和考官交流的過程，交流最重要的就是能讓考官很好地聽懂、聽明白你所要表達的意思。不要試圖說太長的句子，以簡單句爲主，然後使用一些簡單的連接詞把這些簡單句連起來。
爲大家分享一些實用連詞：
並列關係：
首先：Firstly, First of all, What I want to mention firstly is that…, To start with, To begin with, For one thing, My first point is that…
其次：Secondly, In the next place, Moreover, My second point (reason) is that….
第三：Thirdly, furthermore, Besides
最後：In the end, Finally, Lastly, In the end, My last point (reason) is that…, Last but not the least
因果關係：
最簡單的就是so, because, 如果想避免重複，使自己的回答更加出彩，我們還可以使用這些：due to, because of, owing to, thanks to, as a result of, inconsequence of, on account of, in view of, hence, therefore, thus, accordingly和consequently.
讓步和轉折關係：
Although, though, regardless of, even if, even though, as long as, despite, however, in spite of, instead, nevertheless, on the contrary, otherwise, though, while, yet.
遞進關係：
not only…but also, as well(as), at the same time, besides, furthermore, in addition(to), like wise, moreover, worse still.
對比關係：
On the other hand, while, whereas, in contrast, on the contrary.
我們一起來看一道例題: Do men and women like the same hobbies?5分考生可能會這樣回答：
No, I think men and women like different hobbies.
Men like playing computer games, or doing sports activities such as football and basketball. Women like watching TV, shopping, going to a karaoke bar and chatting on line.
這樣的回答最大的問題就是結構，表面上看上去是把男人和女人的愛好進行對比，但其實只是分別進行了羅列，沒有什麼邏輯性。我們可以嘗試用上面總結的連接詞重新組織出這樣的答案：
Well, certainly there are a few differences.
The first difference is the outdoor activities. I mean, men are fond of doing sports activities like football and basketball. In contrast, women prefer going shopping for clothes and shoes.
Another distinction is the TV programs they watch. For instance, men are quite into action movies. By comparison, women are more likely to watch soap operas.
用了the first, another這樣的並列關係詞和in contrast, by comparison這樣的對比關係詞，整個答案的結構和邏輯性都清晰了很多，口語分數自然會提高。
02 替換常用表達
很多烤鴨在備考口語中可能會走入一個誤區，認爲口語一定要說高大上的詞才能得高分。其實有些難詞的語境並不適合，口語中重要的是用不同的方式表達你的意思。
比如：Well, certainly there are a few differences.
The first difference is the outdoor activities. I mean, men are fond of doing sports activities like football and basketball. In contrast, women prefer going shopping for clothes and shoes.
Another distinction is the TV programs they watch. For instance, men are quite into action movies. By comparison, women are more likely to watch soap operas.
我們還是來看這個修改過的高分答案，表達“喜歡、喜愛”這個意思，我們沒有使用單調的like, love, 而是使用be fond of, prefer, be quite into這樣相對高級但也很常用的表達, 表達可能性使用了be likely to…的結構，這樣的替換結構可以讓口語不那麼千篇一律，體現出你對語言靈活的掌握!
所以建議大家多多積累一些常用的替換表達，讓你的內容也變得更加豐富，在詞彙多樣性這個標準上也可以取得好成績。
03 掌握一些實用結構
明明積累了很多口語素材，可是到表達的時候就詞窮了，會說的句型就是那麼幾個，或者是考前背了一些高級的結構表達，考場上卻因爲句型不熟而導致卡殼。所以說還是要掌握一些簡單實用的表達結構，才能更加有機會取得高分!這裏和大家分享一些實用結構：
描述作用：
. enable(s) sb. to do
E.g. The smartphone enables us to contact with our friends.
2. Sth. allow(s) sb. to do
E.g. The smartphone allows us to contact with our friends.
3. With the help of can...

2. I hear of /about (hear of/about 表聽說)
E.g. We frequently hear about these types of reports.
3. Sound
E.g. This sounds impossible.
4. Sound like

描述想法：
1. I think / believe / suppose....

描述感覺和性質：

E.g. It is a great pleasure for me to attend this meeting.

E.g. I am dissatisfied with the current solution.

E.g. I can’t wait to join the football team.
2. I am looking forward to doing sth
E.g. I am looking forward to joining the football team.
04 適當地運用地道的英語表達
除了口語表達和連接詞，我們當然還需要掌握一些地道的英語表達和習慣，不僅能讓我們的口語更自然貼近生活，而且還是口語考試中的加分項哦!比如：
▪ 爲了使自己的內容不要聽起來過於蒼白，我們可以加一些例子使自己的內容聽起來更加豐富，常見的舉例方法有：like, such as, example, in some cases, and stuff like that, and things like that, or something like that.
▪ 停頓的時候，用well, eh, um, 或者you know，佔位。當你需要轉移話題，或轉換一個角度，或者遇上難題，需要一點思考時間又不想冷場的時候，試試這些表達“談及、談到、關於”的詞組：speaking of, talking about, when it comes to, as far as s concerned, as regards, regarding.
▪ 用 flick/flicks 代替film/movie.
▪ 用“a smash hit”代替popular表達“某東西很火”，smash作動詞用是打碎的意思，這個比較常考，但在口語中經常用到它形容詞詞義，表示極爲成功的。
▪ the name of the game 問題的實質;最爲重要的方面;事情的根本目標”。
最後，我們再來看一個高分答案：
Describe a useful website that you like to visit.
Ok, well the first website that came to mind when I saw this topic was Taobao, which is the Chinese equivalent of . There's a huge range of stuff you can buy on this website. One of the best things about this website is that the prices are generally a lot cheaper than in the shops. I mainly go on it to buy things like clothes…
I know that shopping online can be quite risky, because the product often isn't as good as it looks on the website, but if you do enough research, such as read the customer reviews of the product you're thinking of buying, then I think you can avoid this kind of thing happening to you, because you’ll be able to get an idea of how reliable the supplier is.
在這個答案中，我們使用了well, stuff等地道又口語化的表達，同時也用到了很多連接詞如one of, but, such as, because等，讓整個回答聽起來更有層次和邏輯性。A huge range of, get an idea of 等這些高分替換表達也是回答中的亮點!
