标题: 雅思口语备考——你不得不知的STYLE [打印本页] 作者: 圆梦彼岸 时间: 2012-12-12 15:38 标题: 雅思口语备考——你不得不知的STYLE 雅思口语备考要领千千万，苦背单词、狂练句型、寻求预测，你关注各种同义替换、各种话题的口语素材。其实，除了上述方法，你还可以另辟它径。考官提出三种STYLE，瞬间提升口语的洋气，让你脱颖而出！
1. Chunking
何谓“Chunking”，即有节奏的说话，一句话中通过间或强调的单个词，形成很自然的分段。
看一个乔布斯介绍苹果产品的开头：
As you know Apple makes the best notebooks on the planet, the MacBook, and the MacBook Pro. Today, we’re introducing a third kind of book. It’s called the MacBook Air.
尽管乔叔的这个分段让整个句子语速变慢，但不可否认，听者能被这样的开头所深深吸引。分段能够帮助你更好地传递和表达你的意思，更能够吸引住听者，即雅思考官的注意和兴趣。
Topic: Tell me about a city you have visited.
（--选自新航道雅思精讲听说教材《剑桥雅思口语真题题源》P131）
回答的前三句：
“One of the nicest cities I’ve ever visited is the small ancient city of Cambridge. As everyone knows, Cambridge is famous for its university. Founded nearly 800 years ago the university dominates the city with its medieval and gothic-style colleges and buildings.”
如果在陈述答案时忽略了分段，你的表达让考官听起来会显得平淡。我们可以尝试按照下面的分段陈述你的答案：
One of the nicest cities I’ve ever visited is the small ancient city of Cambridge.
练习和模仿方式：可以参考Steven Jobs的产品发布说明及其他演讲，或者TED演讲的片段。
如果说Chunking是帮助你很好地分段，那么在前面的基础上加入Sentence Stress，你的口语“洋气度”就大大提升啦！
2. Sentence Stress
有意识地在你的口语回答中强调某个词，能让考官更清楚地了解你的意思。试着用不同的强调读左边的句子，意思则是大不相同。
I said she might consider a new car. It was my idea.
I SAID she might consider a new car. Don’t you understand me?
I said SHE might consider a new car. Not another person.
I said she MIGHT consider a new car. It’s a possibility.
I said she might CONSIDER a new car. She should think about it. It’s a good idea.
I said she might consider a NEW car. Not just any car.
I said she might consider a new CAR. Not something else.
练习方式：选择你感兴趣的材料进行跟读和模仿，坚持练习就能体会到Sentence Stress的妙处。
