雅思口语有四项评分标准:
A.流利 (Fluency and Accuracy)
B.词汇(vocabulary)
C.语法(grammar)
D.发音(pronunciation
标准一:流利度和连贯性(Fluency and Coherence):
雅思口试满分考生(9分)要能够流利地与考官交流,会话中几乎没有出现重复或自我更正,如果停顿的话,应该是和所讲内容相关的正常停顿而不是在考虑选择合适用词或正确的时态等。内容要前后连贯,一气呵成。为了保证语言流畅,考生可使用适当的连接词。另外,对所谈论的主题要有一定的深度和扩展。国外多数大学接受的本科入学雅思口试成绩的最低标准(6分)则仅要求考生能够主动和考官详细交谈,但有时会因为重复和停顿而缺乏连贯性。能够使用一些连接性的过渡词,但有时不够准确。
标准二:词汇资源(Lexical Resource):
满分考生要能够灵活准确地使用相应词汇谈论各种话题。词汇要丰富和准确,不能过于单一。雅思口语考试虽然不要求考生使用偏难的单词,但是也要尽量避免一些过于简单的词汇。要使用大学老师经常使用的词汇显然有助于取得高分。此外,考生还应该能够自然准确地使用英语惯用语(但不需要使用俚语)。例如: 你可以说I have passed the IELT test. 但如果你加上一个习语,改为: I have passed the IELTS test with flying colours. 这会使语言显得更为生动活泼,肯定会得高分。国外多数大学接受的本科入学雅思口试成绩的最低标准(6分)则仅要求考生能够使用足够的词汇来仔细谈论各种话题,能够清楚地表达自己的意思,尽管会有些错误出现。
标准三:语法范围和准确度(Grammatical Range and Accuracy):
满分考生要具备能够自然准确使用多种句型和句子结构的能力。 比如考官问你:How long have you studied English? 你的回答可能是两种:一种是Nine years. 也许你会说得更复杂一些,如:Nine years up to now, I spent almost 6 years learning English at middle school, and then another 3 years at college. 显然,后一种回答要比前一种得分高。而对于6分考生而言,则需要能够混合使用简单句和复杂句即可,尽管显得不能运用自如。在使用复杂句子结构时可以时常出错,但不会影响听者理解。
标准四:发音(Pronunciation):
考生使用英式发音和美式发音都可以,但最好不要混用。满分考生要能够发音标准,发音不仅包括单词和句子的语音和语调,也包括连读,重音,滑音,浊化等细节。发音可以毫不费力地让人听懂。很多学生有个误解,以为自己的发音要达到BBC或VOA播音员标准才是最高境界,有些人甚至刻意去模仿播音员的腔调,这完全是错误的,甚至是荒唐可笑的。要知道即使普通外国人也不会那样说话发音的,就犹如我们中国人讲汉语未必都要和广播员的声音一样。而对于6分考生而言,则需要能够掌握一些发音特征,可以让考官听懂,但由于有些发音有误,因此让人觉得听起来有时不够清楚。
以上的“考官论“并没有一定的科学依据,雅思口语有公开的评分标准,相对来说还是比较客观的。那么,所谓的高分口语表达和低分表达的差距在哪里呢?
8分口语和6分口语间最大的区别在于以下三点:
1、The high level answers are a more natural style.
这点指,高分答案往往用一种更口语化,更像Native Speaker的表达。
2、The high level answers use more linking phrases.
虽说口语没有答偏题这一说,但是语句中的逻辑性还是需要的。太过混乱的逻辑会让考官听不明白你到底在说什么。因而,连接词的使用很重要。
3、The high level answers are more detailed when describing or explaining something, (using reasons / examples / comparisons).
高分的答案更具体,更详细,不抽象。小伙伴们完全可以用举栗子或者用对比这种简单的手法,来给自己的口语表达添色。
Question 1: Do you like your university?
6分表达: Yes. My teachers are very good and I have lots of friends there.
点评:这是个典型的6分答案,无功无过。虽然把问题讲清楚了,但用词和语句都太过简单,回答不够有力,很难拿高分。
8分表达: Yes I do. I think my university`s great, because I mean, firstly, the teachers there are all really good, you know, I`ve learnt a huge amount from them. And another thing I really like about my university is the friends I`ve made there.
点评:类似于I mean, you know 这类是比较native的口头表达,并不难学。但是烤鸭们要切记,一定不能用过量。简简单单的去剖析细节,分数就比笼统的一句话来的漂亮。
Question 2: How often do you watch TV?
6分表达: Not often, because I prefer using the Internet.
点评:后面加来一句I prefer,并没有单单说一个Not often。不足的是,对于Part 1而言,这类问题的回答仍是太过简短。建议3-4句话为佳。
8分表达: Not that often actually. I mean, I probably only watch it about two or three times a week, basically because I prefer watching stuff on the Internet.
点评:actually,这一个词的使用是较为地道的表达。相信大家日常跟local聊天的时候,可以发现,他们时时刻刻都喜欢把xxxx actually挂在嘴边,我们也可以学起来。另外,two or three times a week是一个细节,补充说明之前的not often究竟是一周几次。Prefer watching stuff on the Internet又是一个细节,说明自己不常看电视的原因。
Question 3:Do you prefer eating at home or eating in a restaurant?
6分表达: I prefer eating at home because it`s healthier than eating out.
点评:很好,给出了原因。但是小编建议,可以再往深处挖一点点,再加一点口语化的词汇,例如Simply Because这类词组,才能给考官一个给你高分的理由。
8分表达: I`d say I generally prefer eating at home, simply because the food I eat at home is a lot healthier than the food you get in most restaurants.
点评:是不是觉得很native~ I’d say,simply because大家可以学着用起来,the food I eat at home is a lot healthier,解释了前文所说的为什么喜欢在家里吃饭的原因,比较级的运用可以算是小小地show off一下哟。
Question 4:When was the last time you received a gift?
6分表达: About five weeks ago.
点评:这个回答太过简短了吧?口语是一个communication的过程,就算咱是有啥答啥的实在人,也千万不要用这种answer来敷衍考官。
8分表达: Let me have a little think, um…… I suppose it must have been about five or six weeks ago, and it was some chocolate that a friend of mine gave me when he came over to my home for dinner (coz my friends all know that I`m a bit of a chocoholic!)
点评:假如遇到不会答的问题怎么办?切记切记,雅思口语考试其实也是一个交流的过程,考官不一定期望你知道所有问题的答案,但一定expect你有response。Let me have a little think……I suppose……这就是非常好的开头。
Question 5: Would you like to move to another city in the future?
6分表达:No, because I love my hometown.
点评:如此的答案,令人有一种无法深入交流的错觉。如此简短的句子如何能展示你的口语能力,让考官心服口服给你个高分?
8分表达: No I wouldn`t, the main reason being that I love my hometown, so if I moved somewhere else, I`m sure I wouldn`t be as happy as I am living here.
点评:同样是歌颂家乡好,话锋一转,在这个表达中就柔和了许多。虚拟语气的运用显示出了较好的语言功底。小编再次重申,理由(reasons)和例子(examples)在口语中是非常非常重要的得分点!!!
Question 6: Can you describe your home a little?
6分表达: My home is big, for example we have a big living room. And um……We also have a good view because our flat is very high.
点评:其实这个答案并不会得很低分。一般想要6分的同学完全可以这样说。对于想要7分甚至于是更高的烤鸭们而言,切记切记,一定要explain more!
8分表达: Yeah, sure. Well first of all, it`s pretty big. For example, the living room is about three or four times the size of this room. And, um…what else… oh yeah, and another thing to mention is the view, because we live quite high up, on the twentieth floor, so we`ve got a really nice view of the city centre.
点评:在考试的高压下假如能说出这样的答案,那么7分妥妥的。对于家的描述可以说是雅思的经典题型,其变体的出现频率非常高,但烤鸭们要回答得好还是有点难度的,因为可讲的东西有很多,稍不留神就会显得messy。这个回答中,告诉了考官房间的大小(three or four times the size of this room),楼层的高低。全篇都是细节,非常符合高分的三大准则。

考官们在评判同学们的口语能力时主要依靠四个雅思口语评分标准:
第一,语言的流畅度和连贯性。
第二,语法知识的广度和准确度。
第三,词汇运用是否准确合适。
第四,发音是否标准。
一、语言的流畅度与连贯性
考官会观察同学们是否能连续的说、语速是否均匀、话语标记使用的是否自然、说的话是否合理、是否准确的回答了问题,语言逻辑是否通顺等。所以建议大家能够多总结一下雅思口语常考话题。
二、语法知识的广度和准确度
考官会观察同学们是否会恰当的运用简单句和复合句、各种时态是否用的准确、语法运用是否准确、形容词比较级和名词复数形式是否运用的准确、动词形式是否正确、是否正确的运用了代词和介词等。
三、词汇运用是否准确合适
考官会观察同学们所掌握的词汇量有多少、词汇的运用是否正确、能否熟练地运用词汇表达各种意思等。
四、发音是否标准
考官会观察同学们是否掌握准确的发音、能否掌握好语言节奏、吐字是否清晰等。
你可以根据雅思口语评分标准判断一下。
其实雅思口语考试还是挺主观的,如果回答得很流利,无明显语法错误的话,差的那点时间是不会扣分的,相反,紧张生硬,造成的没有时间浪费那是需要扣分的。所以需要看你现场回答得如何了~
part 2 只有两分钟,到了两分钟老师就会打断你了。 part 3 是老师问问题,要看你回答的长短来决定问题的多少,如果你每个问题回答的都很少,老师就会通过多问来诱导你多说,但是如果你每个问题都说的比较长,那么就问题就会少点,一般至少3个问题。 向TA提问官方电话
