參加雅思口語(yǔ)考試前需要知道這幾個(gè)問(wèn)題的答案

關(guān)于雅思考試你是不是已經(jīng)了解的差不多了呢?其中的口語(yǔ)考試不知道大家又清楚多少，其中涉及考官、評(píng)分、考場(chǎng)穿著、答題時(shí)間等方方面面，都是大家比較關(guān)心的問(wèn)題，第一次參加考試的烤鴨尤其需要了解一下，提前做好準(zhǔn)備，避免踩中雷區(qū)。

1.How is my performance assessed?

口試官的評(píng)分標(biāo)準(zhǔn)是什么?

Examiners will evaluate your performance according to 4 criteria namely fluency and coherence (FC), lexical resource (LR), grammatical range and accuracy (GRA) and pronunciation (P).

口試官會(huì)依4個(gè)部分評(píng)分：流暢性及連貫性(FC)、詞匯量(LA)、語(yǔ)法運(yùn)用范圍與其正確性(GRA)以及發(fā)音(P)。

2.What is the most important criterion in the speaking test? Is it grammar?

口語(yǔ)測(cè)試中最重要的是語(yǔ)法嗎?

No. The 4 criteria are weighted equally at 25% each. The examiners will give a result for each criterion and then work out the average of the 4 scores which equates to an overall speaking score. If you get 6 for FC, 5 for LR, 5 for GRA and 6 for P, then you will receive 5.5 overall for speaking,

不是。4個(gè)評(píng)分標(biāo)準(zhǔn)同等重要，各占25%。口試官會(huì)針對(duì)這4個(gè)部分分別評(píng)分，然后計(jì)算出1個(gè)平均分?jǐn)?shù);若你在FC拿到6分、LR和GRA都拿到5分、P拿到6分，那你會(huì)拿到總分5.5分。

3.Will I lose points if the examiner disagrees with my opinion?

如果口試官不認(rèn)同我的意見(jiàn)，我會(huì)被扣分嗎?

No. You are judged on your English, not your opinions. There is no right or wrong opinion.

不會(huì)?？谠嚨脑u(píng)分標(biāo)準(zhǔn)是你的英文能力，而非意見(jiàn)，更無(wú)論對(duì)錯(cuò)了。

4.How is my performance assessed?

我不是個(gè)有主見(jiàn)的人，這樣也可以拿到高分嗎?

Yes. As long as you keep talking and use a wide range of English, you can get a high score as this is not an IQ test. Boring or obvious opinions are fine if you can produce a wide and accurate range of language when expressing them.

當(dāng)然可以。只要你持續(xù)不斷地用正確的英文來(lái)表達(dá)自己的想法，即可得到高分，即使是乏味的意見(jiàn)也沒(méi)關(guān)系，因?yàn)檫@并不是智力測(cè)驗(yàn)。

5. I have a North American accent, is that OK?

我有美國(guó)口音，這樣可以嗎?

Yes. American English is not penalised in any part of the test whether it be pronunciation or spelling.

可以。美國(guó)口音或拼寫并不會(huì)影響評(píng)分。

6.How is my performance assessed?

我可以問(wèn)口試官會(huì)給我?guī)追謫?

No. You will receive your IELTS result within 2 weeks but not on the day.

不行。IELTS的成績(jī)會(huì)在測(cè)試后2個(gè)星期之內(nèi)收到。

7.What happens if I disagree with the result I was given?

如果我對(duì)口試成績(jī)有疑問(wèn)怎么辦?

You may ask the IELTS test centre to arrange another IELTS examiner to reevaluate your speaking. This is possible as all interviews are recorded. You may incur an extra expense depending on whether your score changes or not.

口試的部分都有錄音，故可要求考試中心重新評(píng)估口試的成績(jī)。若口試成績(jī)經(jīng)過(guò)復(fù)議后并沒(méi)有更改，你須支付額外的復(fù)議費(fèi);反之，則不必支付。

8.How is my performance assessed?

在自己的國(guó)家參加口試會(huì)比在其他國(guó)家好嗎?

In your home country is often thought to be the best place to do the speaking test. However, do keep in mind that all examiners receive exactly the same training around the world which is moderated by a central body. The only justification for why it may be better to do the test in your home country is that you may score higher in pronunciation as it is seen as more subjective; examiners in your home country will be used to the Chinese accent whereas those in England may not.

在自己的國(guó)家考試通常被認(rèn)為是最好的。然而請(qǐng)記住，全世界所有的IELTS口試官接受的都是相同的訓(xùn)練。在自己國(guó)家較好的唯一理由，就是在發(fā)音部分會(huì)較占優(yōu)勢(shì)，例如在中國(guó)的口試官勢(shì)必比較習(xí)慣考生有中國(guó)的口音。

9.Is there anything I can do if 1 dont understand a question?

假如我聽(tīng)不懂口試官的問(wèn)題，該怎么辦?

Yes. If you dont understand you may ask the examiner to repeat the question at any time during the interview. However, if after repeating you still dont understand, only in Part 3 may you ask the examiner to explain or rephrase a question. In Part 1 the examiner will simply move on to the next question.

假若你不明白間題，可以請(qǐng)口試官再敘述一次。但如果口試官重復(fù)后，你還是不理解，只有在Part 3時(shí)你才可以請(qǐng)口試官換個(gè)說(shuō)法讓你明白問(wèn)題;在口試的Part 1，口試官會(huì)略過(guò)該問(wèn)題而直接進(jìn)行下一個(gè)提問(wèn)。

10.What happens if I misunderstand the question?

如果我誤會(huì)了問(wèn)題的意思，結(jié)果會(huì)如何?

You may lose some points under fluency and coherenceas the examiner may have difficulty following your answer. In Part 3 the examiner may rephrase or explain the question again to give you a second opportunity. This will not happen in Part 1 though, the examiner will move on to the next question.

你可能會(huì)在流暢性及連貫性這部分被扣分。在Part 3，口試官有可能會(huì)再重述或解釋該題，給你第二次機(jī)會(huì)回答;但是在Part 1時(shí)，口試官會(huì)直接問(wèn)你下一個(gè)問(wèn)題。

11.What should I do if I cant think of the right vocabulary?

想不出合適的詞匯表達(dá)時(shí)該怎么辦?

Keep talking by paraphrasing (explaining the meaning of the word). Its better to say something than nothing. If you simply pause and hope that somehow the word miraculously pops into your head, the examiner will be unable to assess you. In other words, long silences are penalised in each criterion as you are producing no vocabulary, grammar or pronunciation features and showing no fluency.

利用你會(huì)的詞句代替或解釋你想不出來(lái)的詞匯，這比什么都不說(shuō)要好，口試官是不會(huì)讓你停頓下來(lái)思考你要的詞匯的;換句話說(shuō)，沉默或間斷的應(yīng)答在4個(gè)評(píng)分標(biāo)準(zhǔn)下都無(wú)法得分。

12.How is my performance assessed?

考試中可以編造答案或說(shuō)謊嗎?

Preferably not. Although there is no way of knowing if you are telling the truth or not, its OK to be honest and more importantly you will sound much more natural and fluent if you are. Just remember to use good English. If the examiner asks you if you like your hometown, you dont need to pretend that you do if you dont. Its quite fine to say you hate it as long as you do so using appropriate English. Similarly if the examiner asks you if you have ever had a pet, but you never have, then say so and give a reason why you havent.

最好不要。因?yàn)檎鎸?shí)的回答聽(tīng)起來(lái)會(huì)比較自然且流暢，重點(diǎn)在于你是否能用好的英文來(lái)表達(dá);舉例來(lái)說(shuō)，當(dāng)口試官問(wèn)你是否喜歡你的家鄉(xiāng)，或你是否養(yǎng)過(guò)寵物時(shí)，你可以回答不喜歡或是你沒(méi)養(yǎng)過(guò)寵物，只要說(shuō)明原因即可。

13.Can I ask the examiner questions?

我可以問(wèn)口試官問(wèn)題嗎?

Yes and No. You may ask the examiner to repeat or rephrase a question but do not ask him/her about their opinions. The test examines your English, not the examiners. You only have 11一14 minutes to show the examiner the full range of English you have learnt overthe past 5 years or so, so dont waste your precious time listening to the examiner.

視情況而定。如果聽(tīng)不清楚題目，你可以請(qǐng)口試官?gòu)?fù)述一次，但不能問(wèn)口試官的想法。重點(diǎn)是“你才是考試的主角”。你只有11一14分鐘的時(shí)間來(lái)表現(xiàn)你的英文能力，讓口試官發(fā)表意見(jiàn)而浪費(fèi)了你的寶貴時(shí)間并不是明智之舉。

14.Is it OK to memorise my answers?

可以背答案嗎?

No. There is no way of knowing exactly what questions will be asked and therefore you may give inappropriate answers if you simply regurgitate memorised answers. Nevertheless, some common phrases that could be used in a variety of situations are definitely OK to memorise.

不可以。你絕不可能準(zhǔn)確地預(yù)測(cè)到口試的題目，請(qǐng)你記?。骸坝?jì)劃永遠(yuǎn)趕不上變化!”但你還是可以熟記一些慣用語(yǔ)，并且在考試當(dāng)中靈活運(yùn)用。

15.Should I be relaxed and easygoing or serious and formal?

考試時(shí)，我應(yīng)該表現(xiàn)得輕松自在還是正襟危坐?

Try to be relaxed. You dont need to sound academic in the speaking interview. Just imagine that you are discussing the interview questions with your friend so that you sound more natural and fluent. Examiners are your friends!

試著讓自己放輕松。如果太緊張，可能會(huì)導(dǎo)致無(wú)法充分發(fā)揮原有的英文能力。把口試官想象成你的朋友，輕松自然地回答即可。

16.Is it OK to give short answers to avoid making too many mistakes?

我可以簡(jiǎn)答以避免犯太多的錯(cuò)誤嗎?

No. Try to give full, extended, complete answers and sentences. You need to demonstrate as much English as possible in the time given.

建議不要。應(yīng)該在有限的時(shí)間里盡量完整并充分地回答問(wèn)題，以展現(xiàn)你的英文能力。

17.How much should I say?

我應(yīng)該講多久?

In Part 1 you have 4-5 minutes to answer at least 3 and up to 10 questions which works out to between 20 to 90 seconds per question but do not rely on slow speech to fill up this time. In Part 2 you must speak for I-2 minutes and it is advisable that you speak closer to 2 minutes than 1. The examiner is required to stop you if you speak for longer than 2 minutes for which you will not be penalised. In Part 3 you have 4-5 minutes to answer between 2-6 questions which works out to between 40 to 150 seconds per answer. Try to find a happy medium between these time frames so that you can answer a range of questions as this will produce a wider range of language.

在Part 1，花4~5分鐘的時(shí)間回答3~10個(gè)題目，每個(gè)題目大概花20~90秒完成，不要試圖通過(guò)放慢說(shuō)話速度來(lái)拉長(zhǎng)時(shí)間;在Part 2，你需要花1~2分鐘的時(shí)間發(fā)表意見(jiàn)，如果你的回答超過(guò)時(shí)限，口試官會(huì)喊停，但你不會(huì)因此被扣分;在Part 3，口試官會(huì)問(wèn)2~6個(gè)題目，你有4~5分鐘的時(shí)間，每個(gè)題目需要40~150秒的時(shí)間回答。記?。阂暜?dāng)下的狀況而定，好好掌握能充分展現(xiàn)你英文能力的時(shí)間。

18.Do I need to speak really quickly?

我需要講得很快嗎?

No. Just speak at a steady, constant speed which can balance your fluency and accuracy.

不需要。用一般的速度、有條不紊地回答即可，記住以表達(dá)清楚為主。

19.Will I be recorded?

口試過(guò)程會(huì)錄音嗎?

Yes. For quality control and reassessment purposes all interviews are recorded.

會(huì)。為了評(píng)分的準(zhǔn)確與公正性，以及日后復(fù)議等因素，口試會(huì)全程錄音。

20.Do all examiners have a British accent?

所有的口試官都是英式口音嗎?

No. Examiners come from a variety of backgrounds andtherefore accents may vary. You may even have a Chinese examiner if they themselves have scored an IELTS 9 on the test.

不是?？谠嚬賮?lái)自不同的國(guó)家，有各自不同的口音。你也可能遇到口試成績(jī)滿分的中國(guó)考官。

21.How many examiners will listen to me?

應(yīng)考時(shí)，會(huì)有幾位口試官?

One during the interview but another examiner may listen to your recording for reassessing or monitoring.

應(yīng)考時(shí)，只會(huì)面對(duì)1位口試官。

22.Can I choose which examiner I want?

我可以選擇口試官嗎?

No. Examiners will be arranged for candidates in arandom order. If you know the examiner in any way, he/she may not assess you under any circumstances.

不可以。口試官是主辦單位隨機(jī)分派的，如果你認(rèn)識(shí)口試官，他/她是不能為你進(jìn)行口試的。

23.Are some examiners stricter than others?

有些口試官特別嚴(yán)格嗎?

No. All examiners have received the same training so all results are standardised. While some may look stricter, their scoring wont be.

不會(huì)。所有的口試官都接受一樣的訓(xùn)練，所以他們的評(píng)分標(biāo)準(zhǔn)是一致的;雖然有的口試官看起來(lái)較嚴(yán)肅，但評(píng)分標(biāo)準(zhǔn)并不會(huì)因此較嚴(yán)格。

24.Is the interview the same for both the GeneralTraining Module and Academic Module?

培訓(xùn)類的口試與學(xué)術(shù)類的口試是相同的嗎?

Yes. There is no difference between the 2 modules in thespeaking section. It is exactly the same.

是的，完全相同。

25.口試的時(shí)間是什么時(shí)候?

自2016年4月起，增設(shè)雅思口語(yǔ)考試日期在線預(yù)訂服務(wù)。該服務(wù)目前僅適用于雅思考試和用于英國(guó)簽證及移民的雅思考試。

成功報(bào)名雅思考試后，在該場(chǎng)考試報(bào)名截止日期前兩天，考生可登錄教育部考試中心雅思考試報(bào)名網(wǎng)站，根據(jù)自身需求選擇已開(kāi)放的雅思口語(yǔ)考試日期以及上/下午時(shí)間段。如果在兩天的預(yù)訂時(shí)段中，考生放棄預(yù)訂、取消已有的預(yù)訂或可預(yù)訂的口語(yǔ)考試日期已滿，系統(tǒng)將做出隨機(jī)安排。最終的口試日期及時(shí)間請(qǐng)已準(zhǔn)考證為準(zhǔn)。

為公平起見(jiàn)，考生只有一次在線預(yù)訂口語(yǔ)考試的機(jī)會(huì)，在預(yù)訂提交后則無(wú)法更改;如果考生在預(yù)訂了口語(yǔ)日期后又選擇了轉(zhuǎn)考或退考服務(wù)，預(yù)訂的口試日期將自動(dòng)失效。

26.Is the TOEFL speaking the same as the IELTS speaking?

TOEFL的口試和IELTS的口試一樣嗎?

No. The speaking section of TOEFL is an integrated skills test in which they combine your listening, reading and speaking skills. There is no live interview with an examiner in the TOEFL.

不一樣。TOEFL口試考查考生聽(tīng)、讀、說(shuō)的綜合技能，而且是以機(jī)考來(lái)進(jìn)行口試，并沒(méi)有口試官。

27.Which section of IELTS speaking is the most difficult?

口試的哪個(gè)部分最難?

Part 3 is the most difficult section of the speaking as examiners will ask you questions on unfamiliar, more academic topics.

Part 3，口試官會(huì)問(wèn)一些對(duì)你而言較陌生或較學(xué)術(shù)的問(wèn)題。

28.What do I need to bring into the interview room with me?

口試時(shí)，需要帶些什么東西嗎?

Your ID card and test centre ID for the examiner to check and a positive attitude.

身份證和準(zhǔn)考證以及最有把握的態(tài)度。

29.What should I wear?

考試當(dāng)天我應(yīng)該穿什么?

Its neither a fashion show nor a board meeting with the directors. Just wear something you feel comfortable in (smart casual) as you only want to be concerned with your English not your clothes.

你只需要穿上你覺(jué)得最舒服的衣服(看起來(lái)較正式的休閑服)。你要花心思的是你的英文，而非穿著。

30.Is it possible to prepare for the speaking test?

口試部分可能事先準(zhǔn)備嗎?

Yes. The more you learn about and understand the test, the more confident and less nervous you will feel.

可以。越了解這個(gè)考試，你就會(huì)越覺(jué)得有信心，同時(shí)可以減輕壓力。

31.Are there any shortcuts to getting a high score?

有任何捷徑可以幫助我拿到高分嗎?

Unfortunately not. How quickly you improve all depends on how much time and effort you can afford to allocate to preparing for the test.

很遺憾，沒(méi)有。多快可以有進(jìn)步，完全取決于你花了多少時(shí)間與心思準(zhǔn)備這個(gè)考試。

32.How quickly can I expect to improve 1 band?

進(jìn)步1分需要花多久的時(shí)間?

All linguistic theory books suggest it takes around 200 hours of learning and practice to improve I level. However this may be reduced for those students who may have been out of practice with English for some time and are just trying to regain their former glory. And some students have a natural gift for learning languages.

依語(yǔ)言學(xué)習(xí)的理論來(lái)看，至少需要花200個(gè)小時(shí)學(xué)習(xí)才會(huì)進(jìn)步1分。但有些人只是過(guò)去一段時(shí)間疏于學(xué)習(xí)，而有些人具有語(yǔ)言天分，對(duì)他們來(lái)說(shuō)，進(jìn)步1分所需的時(shí)間可能較短。

33.Is it best to have a British examiner as a teacher?

如果找英國(guó)籍口試官當(dāng)老師會(huì)比較好嗎?

Your teacher doesnt need to be an examiner nor British. They just need to have a thorough understanding of the IELTS and be qualified and experienced to teach you the skills and strategies of the IELTS.

你的老師不需要是口試官或英國(guó)人，只要他們了解IELTS的測(cè)試方式，并且具備指導(dǎo)IELTS的專業(yè)能力與經(jīng)驗(yàn)即可。

34.How can I improve my speaking?

如何提高我的口試能力?

Practice, Practice, Practice. The more you practice, the more you will learn, which leads to higher confidence and lower nerves.

練習(xí)、練習(xí)、再練習(xí)!你練習(xí)得越多，就會(huì)越有自信。

35.Should I find a speaking partner?

我需要找一個(gè)可以跟我練習(xí)對(duì)話的人嗎?

Yes. Otherwise how can you practice? It doesnt need to be a foreigner nor do you need to get a foreign boyfriend/girlfriend. Your partner could be a fellow Chinese who is preparing for IELTS or just wants to improve his/her English also.

這是必要的。不過(guò)你不需要因此而找外國(guó)人來(lái)作為你練習(xí)英語(yǔ)的對(duì)象，你的練習(xí)對(duì)象可以是正在準(zhǔn)備IELTS考試的考生，或是想提高英文能力的人。

這些內(nèi)容希望大家能夠好好看看，在考試的前夕更要抓緊每時(shí)每刻去學(xué)習(xí)。不是只有抱著一本單詞書背啊背，我們要準(zhǔn)備的東西實(shí)在是太多。如果你對(duì)雅思考試的成績(jī)有目標(biāo)有期待值，那就趕快行動(dòng)起來(lái)吧!早通過(guò)早安心!
