托福口语练习技巧

发布时间:2017-04-06 编辑:梁雅

  托福口语考试要求考生在很短的时间内迅速组织语言,对词汇积累及逻辑构架能力要求很高,如果能够提前针对托福口语中可能出现的话题进行准备,小编整理托福口语练习技巧,提供大家参考学习。

  随时随地练习口语

  Practice wherever you can and whenever you can. Any practice is good, whether you speak to someone who is a native English speaker or not.

  表达清晰为主,句型多样为辅

  It’s important to build your confidence. If possible, use simple English sentence structure that you know is correct, so that you can concentrate on getting your message across.

  大胆运用所掌握的词汇,不要过分拘泥于语法

  Try to experiment with the English you know. Use words and phrases you know in new situations. Native English speakers are more likely to correct you if you use the wrong word than if you use the wrong grammar. Experimenting with vocabulary is a really good way of getting feedback.

  透过身体语言理解对方意思并作出回应

  Try to respond to what people say to you. You can often get clues to what people think by looking at their body language. Respond to them in a natural way.

  避免直译

  Try not to translate from or into your own language. This takes too much time and will make you more hesitant.

  遇到不知该如何表达的时候,用一些常用词表示自己正在思考

  If you forget a word, do what native English speakers do all the time, and say things that "fill" the conversation. This is better than being completely silent. Try using um or er, if you forget the word.

  语速不要过快

  Don’t speak too fast. It’s important to use a natural rhythm when speaking English. But if you speak too fast, it will be difficult for people to understand you.

  说话时尽量放松,让发音流利顺畅

  Try to relax when you speak. When you speak English at a normal speed, you will discover that most of the pronunciation skills, such as linking between words, will happen automatically.

  后记

  Don’t be shy to speak! The more you practise, the more confident you’ll become.

  托福口语常见错误

  NO 1:

  I very like it.

  I like it very much.

  最常见的错误,错误版本还有“I'm very like it.”等。

  NO 2:

  The price is very suitable for me.

  The price is right.

  本组句式中后一组更加地道。前一句是中国人的说法,国外认为价格是reasonable(合理)而不是suitable(合适)。

  NO 3:

  What's your job?

  Are you working at the moment?

  第一句话可能小学课本前几节课就存在了,难道有问题吗?语法是没有问题,然而在实际场景中我们不这么说,第一种说法对于没有工作的人来说很尴尬很失礼,我们要用第二种更加婉转的语气问这类敏感问题。

  NO 4:

  How to say?

  How do you say it in English?

  前一句话可能是中国最泛滥的语法错误,这种表达方式不地道。虽然这么说老外肯定听得懂而且也不会认为有什么大问题,但是在托福考试中口语用语不要那么的随意,尽可能客观严谨地回答。其他正确示范:Can you spell it in English? How do you pronounce it?

  NO 5:

  I have something to do tomorrow.

  Sorry, but I am tied up all day tomorrow.

  其实想要体现出自己明天很忙,直接说一句I am busy tomorrow.都比前一句来得强。人每时每刻都在做事情,Right?

  NO 6:

  I haven't an English name.

  I don't have an English name.

  这里的have是实义动词,并非助动词,之所以很多中国学生都这么说确实是因为以前中小学生的教材问题。
