南京雅思 | 雅思口语考试中的这十个“禁忌”，千万不要做！

　　雅思口语考试中的这十个“禁忌”，千万不要做！因为我们很少会有足够的口语交流经验，所以其实很多考生在备考雅思口语的过程中，主要就是靠背去进行一个【硬记】，但是真正的口语考试中，真人面对面交流的时候，我们就会少了很多变通和自然感，所以今天官方亲自跟大家分享一下在雅思口语当中的十个禁忌。

　　在British Council(英国文化协会，其也是雅思考试的官网)官网上，有非常多有关雅思考试的相关讨论。其中发布的经典评论“Ten don'ts for the IELTS speaking test”非常完美地回答了中国考生的各种问题~

　　这篇文章出自获得了英国文化协会英语教学奖的老师Chris Pell，相信大家在看完之后也会对雅思口语考试有更深刻的认识，更能掌握到其精髓。

　　今天新航道南京雅思培训机构小编就来带大家看看雅思考试中“十个不要做”的内容吧~

　　1不要背答案

　　Lots of people think that the best way to do well in the speaking test is to remember scripted answers and simply use these in the test. This is a bad idea because memorised answers are very obvious and examiners are trained to spot them. You will not only lose marks, the examiners may also ask you more difficult questions to test your English and establish your real level.

　　许多人认为在口语考试中取得好成绩的最好办法就是背住写好的脚本答案，然后在考试中直接使用这些答案。但其实这是一个糟糕的办法，因为背诵的答案是非常明显的，雅思考官也有经过训练来识别这些答案。你不仅会因此丢分，考官还可能会问你更难的问题来测试你，从而确定你的真实水平。

　　所以死记硬背全稿不是一个好办法哦~

　　2不要担心考官的看法

　　I was surprised when some students told me that you can only do well on the speaking test if the examiner agrees with your opinion. Nothing could be further from the truth. Examiners are not concerned with your opinion; they just want you to demonstrate your speaking ability. Focus on giving a fluent answer that responds to the question and is grammatically correct.

　　我很惊讶于一些学生认为只有考官同意你的观点，你才能在口语考试中取得好成绩。事实上绝非如此。考官不关心你的意见，他们只是想你展示你的口语能力。专注于给出一个流利且能回应问题的回答，并且语法正确。

　　3不要加入很多的“大词”

　　A common misconception is that you must have very long, ‘complicated’ words in every sentence to get a high score on the test. If you listen to how native speakers talk, this just doesn't happen, unless you are at a conference of university professors. You should try to show the examiner that you have a wide-ranging vocabulary, but you should not try to use words you don’t fully understand. If you try to use ‘complicated’ words you don’t fully understand, it is very likely that you will make mistakes and lose marks.

　　I tell my students to use the 100-per-cent rule: if you are not 100-per-cent sure about the meaning and form of a word, don’t use it.

　　口语考试中一个常见的误解是，你必须在每个句子中都有非常长的、“复杂”的单词才能在考试中获得高分。如果你听母语人士的交谈，这是不会发生的，除非你是在一个大学教授的会议上。你确实应该向考官展示你的词汇量很广，但不要使用你不完全理解的单词。如果你试图使用你不完全理解的“复杂”单词，你很可能会犯错误和丢分。

　　我告诉我的学生使用“百分之百规则”:如果你不是百分之百确定一个词的意思和形式，就不要使用它。

　　4不要炫耀你的语法能力

　　This point is connected to the previous one. Many candidates feel that they need to show the examiner how amazing their grammar is in order to get a high mark. Again, the danger here is trying to use grammar you are not 100-per-cent sure about and then losing control of the sentence. There is no point in using the future perfect continuous tense if it is not appropriate to do so. Think about the tense you need to use when practising, and familiarise yourself with functional language for giving opinions, contrasting views, emphasising, and so on.

　　这一点与前一点相关。许多考生觉得他们需要向考官展示他们的语法有多棒才能得到高分。再说一次，使用你不是百分之百确定的语法导致你不能很好地说出这一句子是很危险的。如果不合适的话，使用将来完成进行时是没有意义的。想想你在练习时需要使用的时态，熟悉用于表达观点、对比观点、强调等等的功能性语言。

　　5不要什么都不说

　　This seems like an obvious piece of advice but you would be surprised by how many students prefer to say nothing rather than attempt to give an answer. It is always better to attempt an answer than simply say nothing. Many students feel this way, perhaps because their old teacher told them to say nothing or criticised them if they didn't know the answer. In the IELTS speaking test, you are not expected to give a perfect response to a question or to be an expert in many different areas. The main thing is to demonstrate your speaking ability.

　　If you don’t know the answer, it is always acceptable to say something like‘I don’t have much knowledge of this subject, but I think…’ or ‘I'm not really sure, but if I had to say….’, and attempt an answer.

　　这似乎是一个显而易见的建议，但我常常会惊讶于有多少学生宁愿什么都不说，也不愿尝试给出答案。试着回答总比什么都不说要好。许多学生都有这种感觉，也许是因为他们的老师告诉他们，如果他们不知道答案，就什么都别说。在雅思口语考试中，你不需要对一个问题做出完美的回答，也不需要成为许多不同领域的专家。最重要的是展示你的口语能力。

　　如果你不知道答案，可以这样说:

　　......

　　6别让语法凌驾于流利度之上

　　In the exam, you get separate marks for grammatical accuracy and fluency. Most students I've taught in Asia worry more about their grammar than their fluency, and the latter skill suffers as a result. When I have taught European students, it is generally the opposite way round. Ask a teacher or native speaker to give you advice about your grammar or fluency needs. You can then focus on improving one or the other.

　　在考试中，你会在语法准确性和流利度上分别得到单独的分数。我在亚洲教过的大多数学生都更担心他们的语法而不是他们的流利程度，结果后者受到了影响。当我教欧洲学生时，情况通常是相反的。向老师或以英语为母语的人请教语法或流利度方面的问题，然后你可以专注于改善其中一个。

　　7不要担心你的口音

　　I work at a well-known school with ‘British’ in the title, and lots of students come to me at the end of the first class and ask how they can get a British accent like me. This always makes me smile because I actually have an Irish accent and I ask them which British accent they would like to learn. Many students are overly concerned with sounding more ‘British’ or more ‘American’, whatever this actually means. In fact, accent is not important in the speaking test as long as it does not impede your ability to communicate.

　　我在一所名字里有“英国口音”的著名学校工作，很多学生在第一节课结束时来找我，问我怎样才能学我这样的英国口音。这总是让我发笑，因为我其实有爱尔兰口音，我问他们想学哪种英国口音。许多学生过于关注听起来更“英国”或更“美国”，不管这实际上意味着什么。事实上，口音在口语考试中并不重要，只要它不妨碍你的沟通能力。

　　8不要太过于紧张

　　Getting nervous is a natural reaction to a test, but nerves can often bring someone’s score down in a few different ways. Some people have a tendency to speak at a very low volume when they are nervous and this will reduce the examiner’s ability to understand you. Others mumble when they are nervous and this is obviously a bad idea in a speaking test. The key is to prepare properly and then you will feel more confident.

　　紧张是对考试的一种自然反应，但它通常会在几个方面降低一个人的分数。有些人在紧张的时候会用很低的音量说话，这会降低考官理解你的能力。还有一些人在紧张的时候说话会含糊不清，这在口语考试中显然不是一件好事。关键在于要做好充分的准备，这样你才会更加自信。

　　9不要迟到

　　Make sure you give yourself lots of time to get to the examination centre and find out where your speaking test will be. By getting there early you will be able to get comfortable in your surroundings and concentrate solely on the exam. Don’t be afraid to ask the staff any questions you might have; they are there to help.

　　确保你有充足的时间去考试中心，并找到口试地点。早点到学校，你就能适应周围的环境，集中精力应付考试。不要害怕向工作人员提出任何问题，他们就是来帮忙的。

　　10不要依赖考官

　　Some students think the speaking examiner will prompt you if you are talking too much or too little, or not speaking loudly enough, or if you are not sticking to the question asked. In fact, the examiner has no duty to do any of these things and she or he will allow you to make mistakes and not tell you.Take control of your own speaking and don’t look to the examiner for cues or help.

　　一些学生认为口语考官会提示你是否说得太多或太少，说话声音不够大，或者你有没有回应问题。事实上，考官没有义务去做这些事情，他或她会允许你犯错误，而不会告诉你。控制你自己的口语，不要指望考官提供线索或帮助。
