首先,要保证面对考官有话可说,这就考察大家平时的积累程度啦!其次,还要说得地道,这方面可以使用一些套路。下面这31个短语可以说很实用了,而且比大多数非母语人士日常使用的更复杂、更出彩,考试中一定能用到这些短语,而且还能帮你拿高分~
01.Expressing Likes/Dislikes
首先,口语考试中避不开的话题就是“喜好”
举个例子,假如考官问你:"Do you like swiming?"
你难道只能回答"I like/love swimming"吗?
来看看一些高级玩法吧~
This appeals to me because……
这对我很有吸引力,因为……
与其简单回答“我喜欢”
不如使用“This appeals to me because……”
既表明你的态度,又阐述了喜爱的原因
比如
“swimming appeals to me because it's such a great way to relieve stress .”
To get a lot of pleasure out of something/doing something
我从某事中(或做某事的过程中)获得很多乐趣
A. “I like taking my swimming lessons.”,
B.“ I get a lot of pleasure out of taking my swimming lessons.”
你猜哪个能让人眼前一亮?
To be keen to do something/
To be keen on doing something
如果对某事充满了热情,
可以用“ I am keen to do something”来表达
或者“I am keen on doing something"
比如
“I was keen on going to the party but two centimeters of snow fell in London and trains didn't run."
同样地,如果你对某事并不热衷
使用" I am not keen on doing something."即可
use"keen" as an adjective
“keen"也可以用作形容词,来表达热切、热情
" I'm a keen supporter of Chelsea of Arsenal Football Club."
Now we all know how keen you are.
To be fond of (doing)something
如果你喜欢做某事
To be fond of (doing)something是很好的表达方式
比如
"Unlike most people I'm not fond of chocolate at all."
它也可以用来谈论人
" I'm really fond of my uncle."
" I'm not fond of my neighbor at all."
To grow fond of
如果随着时间的推移,你开始喜欢某事/某物
可以用" to grow fond of"来表达
比如
" I've grown fond of the flattered rent and now I don't want to leave."
02.Asking for clarification
有时你没听清或听懂对方的话语
不用不好意思
你可以礼貌的请他再说一遍,解释一下
这三种表达方式都可以使用:
Sorry, I didn't quite catch that
对不起, 我没听清楚
Could you say that again?
你能再说一遍吗?
Could you explain what you mean by……?
你能解释关于...... 的意思吗?
比如
“could you explain what you mean by bricks and mortar business?”
03.Providing clarification
如果你需要解释、澄清你的刚才说的话,
以下三种方式都可以:
To put it another way
换一种方式说
What I'm trying to say is
我想说的是……
What I mean is
我的意思是……
举个例子
“What I'm trying to say is that maybe you can't approach this as a purely intellectual exercise.”
04.If you are not sure what to say
如果你不知道该说什么
千万不要保持沉默!
说一些类似这样的话
It's quite a difficult question
这是一个相当困难的问题
That's a good question
这是一个很好的问题
I've never thought about it before but I guess……
之前我从来没有想过这个问题, 但我想……
(在这之后你就得想到如何回答问题了)
05.Agreeing with something
有时,考官会问你某个观点同意与否
假如同意
你可以这样回答:
I couldn't agree more
我非常赞同
I totally agree
我完全同意
Absolutely/Definitely
绝对,肯定
"absolutely young people spend way too much time on social media."
I tend to agree(with) that
"我倾向于同意……"
这是一种比较温和的同意形式
It depends/I think it really depends
“这取决于……”
这是一种更理性的回答
" Well, the answer depends on how you look at the problem."
06.Disagreeing with something
这是一些不同意见的礼貌表达方式:
That’s one way of looking at it. However……
这是看问题的一种方式,然而......
That's not always true
事实并非总是如此
“some people say that getting education is the best way to prepare for the future, however that's not always true.
In some situations hands-on experience is much more valuable.”
07.Expressing your opinion
如果你想表达观点,但不确定事实正确与否,你可以这样说:
As far as I'm concerned
就我而言
As I see it
就我所知
As far as I know
就我所知
“Global warming is a recent problem as far as I know.”
I suppose
我想……
I would imagine
我想……
"I'm not sure if it's true but I would imagine so many scientists can't be wrong."
I’m convinced that
我相信……
表达你对某事的确信
“Unlike President Trump, I'm convinced that global warming is a real issue.”
There is no other way
除此之外别无他法
更强烈地表明态度
"This is an excellent report. There's no other way to put it."
I've never really thought about it
我还真没想过……
当你遇到一个猝不及防、意想不到的问题
你就可以用这句话来缓冲
“Oh, what is your favorite wild animal?”
“Well, I've never really thought about it but I'm quite fond of big cats. For example, Tigers and leopards.”
To sum up/To wrap up
如果你想在考官终止你的回答之前主动结束对话,
最好表示你马上就会回答完毕
用” to sum up” 或者” to wrap up”即可
比如
" To wrap up I'm really fond of Miami because of its diversity and tropical climate."
