考研英語(yǔ)口語(yǔ)常見(jiàn)問(wèn)題
英語(yǔ)口語(yǔ)通常是通過(guò)聲音傳播的,英語(yǔ)文學(xué)作品中也常以書(shū)面形式記敘英語(yǔ)口語(yǔ),以下是小編整理的關(guān)于考研英語(yǔ)口語(yǔ)常見(jiàn)問(wèn)題,希望大家認(rèn)真閱讀!
第一個(gè)經(jīng)常問(wèn)得話題是考研原因。
通常我們可以從以下三個(gè)方面來(lái)回答。
1) 興趣,即強(qiáng)調(diào)對(duì)所報(bào)考的專業(yè)懷有極大的興趣(have significant interest in…)。
如果本科就讀的專業(yè)與報(bào)考的專業(yè)一致,則可以說(shuō)明想繼續(xù)深造(further education)的愿望。如果不一致,則要說(shuō)明報(bào)考專業(yè)對(duì)你的吸引力(…appealsto/attracts me a lot);
2) 優(yōu)勢(shì),即強(qiáng)調(diào)研究生相對(duì)于本科生在知識(shí)、學(xué)術(shù)方面的優(yōu)勢(shì),如:知識(shí)面更廣(wider knowledge),學(xué)術(shù)更專業(yè)(more professional),眼界更廣闊等(broaden one’s horizon);
3) 益處,即強(qiáng)調(diào)考研對(duì)你的未來(lái)的積極影響(havea positive effect on…),可以從求職、職業(yè)規(guī)劃、人生經(jīng)歷等方面入手進(jìn)行說(shuō)明?蓞⒖嫉脑~匯、短語(yǔ)如下:be helpful, contribute to, be beneficial to, be conductive to, be adefinite advantage, become a strong point when it comes to…等等。
此外,對(duì)于那些在職考生或有工作經(jīng)驗(yàn)的考生來(lái)說(shuō),考官更傾向于提問(wèn)他們?yōu)槭裁?放棄工作而)重新學(xué)習(xí)。
考生可以直言在工作發(fā)現(xiàn)某些知識(shí)或技能很重要,希望能通過(guò)學(xué)習(xí)在這些方面進(jìn)行提高(In my work, I found … is rather important. I always believe that one will easily lagbehind unless he keeps on learning. So I choose to go back to school andimprove myself。)。
考官有時(shí)會(huì)詢問(wèn)考生對(duì)未來(lái)的一些規(guī)劃,其目的在于試探考生是否對(duì)時(shí)間、學(xué)習(xí)、人生有一定計(jì)劃性和掌控能力。
1) 學(xué)習(xí)規(guī)劃。關(guān)于這一話題,考官通常會(huì)以一種較婉轉(zhuǎn)的方式提問(wèn),如:What do you expect to achieve during your study if you are enrolledinto this university? 回答這一類的問(wèn)題時(shí),不僅僅要回答想學(xué)到什么樣的知識(shí)、成為什么樣的人,最好能夠稍微說(shuō)說(shuō)你會(huì)/計(jì)劃怎樣學(xué)習(xí)(即學(xué)習(xí)方法)。無(wú)論是傾向于學(xué)術(shù)理論性的還是側(cè)重于實(shí)驗(yàn)研究性的,都要把握一個(gè)原則:理論聯(lián)系實(shí)際,同時(shí)主次分明。
2) 職業(yè)生涯規(guī)劃。職業(yè)生涯規(guī)劃其實(shí)就是明確自己未來(lái)的職業(yè)方向,雖然考官不常對(duì)此提問(wèn)(基本上也是提問(wèn)考生對(duì)所報(bào)考專業(yè)的就業(yè)前景持何種態(tài)度),但是這個(gè)話題實(shí)際上涉及了一個(gè)人對(duì)自己的性格、天賦、興趣、能力以及社會(huì)現(xiàn)狀進(jìn)行綜合分析的能力,還同時(shí)也可以看出他對(duì)自己未來(lái)人生的一種期望、信念和熱情,因此考生也可對(duì)此稍做準(zhǔn)備,甚至可以將其放在自我介紹中(不建議口語(yǔ)不太理想的考生這樣做)。
需要注意的是,職業(yè)生涯規(guī)劃一定要根據(jù)自己的實(shí)際情況加以定奪,尤其要注意與所報(bào)考專業(yè)的契合度。
自我介紹。
要求簡(jiǎn)潔、有新意,能夠讓考官記住你。最重要的是,發(fā)音要準(zhǔn),不要太快,以別人聽(tīng)懂為目的。但注意一定要聽(tīng)考官的指示語(yǔ),聽(tīng)到考官說(shuō):Can you introduce yourself briefly/ say something about yourself后再開(kāi)始。其實(shí)現(xiàn)在許多口語(yǔ)考試為了規(guī)避考生背誦準(zhǔn)備好的自我介紹,都去除了這個(gè)部分,而是由一些簡(jiǎn)單問(wèn)題來(lái)代替,如:
Where are you from? Could you say somethingabout your hometown?
Could you say something about your family?
What do you usually do in your leisuretime?
What’s your favorite TV program?
Who is the most important person in yourfamily?
"What would you like to be doing fiveyears after graduation?"("在畢業(yè)以后5年內(nèi)你想做些什么?")Know what you can realistically accomplish.You can find out by talking to others MBA about what they accomplished in theirfirst five years with a particular company after graduation.
"I hope to do my best I can be at myjob and because many in this line of work are promoted to area manager, I amplanning on that also.""What is your greateststrength?" ("你最突出的優(yōu)點(diǎn)是什么?")這是很多面試考官喜歡問(wèn)的一個(gè)問(wèn)題。
這是你"展示自己"的最佳機(jī)會(huì),不要吹噓自己或過(guò)于自負(fù),但要讓考官知道你相信自己,你知道自己的優(yōu)點(diǎn)。
如可答:"我認(rèn)為我最大的優(yōu)點(diǎn)是能夠執(zhí)著地盡力把事情辦好。當(dāng)做完一個(gè)項(xiàng)目而其成果又正合我的預(yù)想時(shí),我會(huì)有一種真正的成就感。我給自己定了一些高目標(biāo)。比如說(shuō),我要成為出色的畢業(yè)生。盡管在大學(xué)一年級(jí)時(shí)我啟動(dòng)慢了些,但最終我以優(yōu)等論文完成了學(xué)業(yè)。
"What is your greatestweakness?"("你最大的弱點(diǎn)是什么?")你不應(yīng)該說(shuō)你沒(méi)有任何弱點(diǎn),以此來(lái)回避這個(gè)問(wèn)題;每個(gè)人都有弱點(diǎn)。最佳策略是承認(rèn)你的弱點(diǎn),但同時(shí)表明你正在努力改進(jìn),并有克服弱點(diǎn)的計(jì)劃。
可能的話,你可說(shuō)出一項(xiàng)可能會(huì)帶來(lái)好處的弱點(diǎn),如可說(shuō):"我是一個(gè)完美主義者。研究做得不漂亮,我是不會(huì)撒手的。""How do you feel about your progressto date?" ("對(duì)于你至今所取得的進(jìn)步你是怎樣看的?")絕不要對(duì)你以前的所作所為表示內(nèi)疚。如可答:"我認(rèn)為我在學(xué)校表現(xiàn)不錯(cuò)。事實(shí)上,有好幾門功課我的成績(jī)居全班第一。"I think I did well in school. Infact, in a number of courses I received the highest exam scores in theclass."
【拓展內(nèi)容】
考研英語(yǔ)口語(yǔ)復(fù)試技巧
考官如果問(wèn)家鄉(xiāng)的話,一般會(huì)問(wèn):Could you please give me a brief introduction about your hometown?/What is your hometown like?/Can you describe your hometown?
該如何回答這類問(wèn)題呢?
很多同學(xué)當(dāng)聽(tīng)到這個(gè)問(wèn)題時(shí),都會(huì)很高興,同學(xué)們對(duì)于自己的家鄉(xiāng)非常了解,所以會(huì)有很多話要說(shuō),以"西安"為例,同學(xué)們會(huì)這樣表達(dá):
我的家鄉(xiāng)位于陜西省西安市,歷史悠久,有很多名勝古跡,其中最著名的就是秦始皇陵兵馬俑。這里還有很多小吃,比如羊肉泡沫,牛肉泡沫等。然后就結(jié)束了。但是這樣的介紹存在很大的問(wèn)題。
考官為什么會(huì)問(wèn)這樣的問(wèn)題呢?
比如西安,其實(shí)考官也知道西安有秦始皇陵兵馬俑,有羊肉泡饃,所以老師不想同學(xué)們這樣泛泛而談,而是想讓大家介紹自己家鄉(xiāng)的獨(dú)特特點(diǎn)。有一句著名的諺語(yǔ)-一方水土養(yǎng)育一方人,所以來(lái)自不同地方的人會(huì)有不同的特點(diǎn),有不同的品性。
比如山東曲阜,有孔府孔廟,所以來(lái)自這個(gè)地方的人,一般都尊師重道,熱愛(ài)學(xué)習(xí)。山東棗莊是革命根據(jù)地,這個(gè)地方的人一般都吃苦耐勞,具有民族自豪感。廣東福建地區(qū)是華僑聚居區(qū),所以這個(gè)地方的人一般都具有吃苦耐勞和開(kāi)拓進(jìn)取精神。
【幫幫提示】大家在介紹自己家鄉(xiāng)的時(shí)候,可以先介紹家鄉(xiāng)的位置,美麗的美景,但是更重要的是突出家鄉(xiāng)的文化和歷史對(duì)于自己的影響。所以當(dāng)聽(tīng)到考官問(wèn)這類問(wèn)題時(shí),應(yīng)該這樣做:
先簡(jiǎn)單的介紹自己的家鄉(xiāng),也就是brief introduction;
然后再說(shuō)自己家鄉(xiāng)的獨(dú)特特征以及在這樣的文化和歷史熏陶之下,對(duì)自己產(chǎn)生的影響,即:unique features and influence on you;
最后總結(jié),表達(dá)自己對(duì)于家鄉(xiāng)的熱愛(ài),也就是conclusion。
剛才提到的是思路,到底應(yīng)該如何用英文表達(dá)呢,這里結(jié)合一個(gè)范文來(lái)看一下具體的英文表達(dá)。
I am from Xi'an,the capital city of Shanxi province,which is considered as one of the cradles of Chinese civilization. The more than 1100 years' history of thirteen feudal dynasties,from the Zhou Dynasty to the Tang Dynasty,leaves the city abundant historical and cultural heritages.When yo step out of Xi'an railway station,the world-renowned city wall,built in Ming dynasty,will come your view.Walking around this city,you can feel its profound history everywhere.(總體簡(jiǎn)單介紹)
Qingqiang opera is quite popular in this area which is characterized by its straightforwardness and enthusiasm,so the people here are no exception.If you are in trouble,we will always come to help you as soon as possible.Besides good nature,we are strict with our work,persistently pursuing high quality.For example,the famous director,Zhang Yimou, attaches high importance to every detail of his works,including the theme,the actors and the frame.As a result,his works enjoy wide popularity and reputation.Growing up in such a beneficial environment ,gradually,I develop a spirit of integrity,diligence and earnestness.(獨(dú)特特征及對(duì)自身的影響)
Last but not least,we are extremely hospitable and so welcome to Xi'an.(總結(jié))
這就是如何介紹自己的家鄉(xiāng)。各位小伙伴們可以按照總結(jié)的思路,借鑒上面的一些語(yǔ)言,針對(duì)自己的情況提前準(zhǔn)備。祝大家復(fù)試順利!
考研英語(yǔ)口語(yǔ)考試高頻話題
個(gè)人相關(guān)話題
一般涉及考生的日常生活、業(yè)余愛(ài)好、學(xué)習(xí)和工作經(jīng)歷。另外在準(zhǔn)備口語(yǔ)的同時(shí),還要加強(qiáng)聽(tīng)力的訓(xùn)練。否則口語(yǔ)再好,如果聽(tīng)不懂考官在說(shuō)什么也是徒留遺憾。例如:
Your family;
Your hometown;
Your university;
Your favorite book;
Your plan about future;
Your most impressive teacher;
Your unforgettable experience;
Please tell me something about the job you have held, and what you have learned form it.
What has been your greatest accomplishment in solving a problem? Use a specific example to demonstrate.
傳統(tǒng)話題
這類話題具有很強(qiáng)的普遍性,在各類英語(yǔ)口語(yǔ)考試中也經(jīng)常被采用,常涉及傳統(tǒng)文化問(wèn)題。如果考官為外國(guó)人,他可能會(huì)對(duì)你說(shuō)在地區(qū)的文化習(xí)俗很感興趣,所以要提前熟記相關(guān)詞匯及表達(dá)。例如:
Scenic spots and historic sites;
Generation Gap;
Taking Part-Time Jobs;
Whats a Friend for?
Does money equal happiness?
What does happiness mean to you?
Is Honesty Always the Best Virtue?
Whats your view on the gap between rich and poor?

熱點(diǎn)話題
常涉及目前社會(huì)上普遍關(guān)心和談?wù)摰脑掝},所以考生最好在這段時(shí)間多閱讀一些相關(guān)中文報(bào)道或英文報(bào)道,可以事先拿一些常規(guī)話題訓(xùn)練一下,看是否能完整的陳述出自己的觀點(diǎn)及看法。例如:
Going abroad;
Online learning;
Information age;
Your view on Micro blog;
What do you think of smog?
What is your point of view about the hot debate of private housing?
What are the main problems in our society/of college education, and how to solve them?
Somebody thinks that it is necessary for every university student to take, do you agree or disagree?
最后,提醒大家在考研復(fù)試過(guò)程中,回答問(wèn)題切忌說(shuō)一些大而空的話,一定要言之有物,保持態(tài)度誠(chéng)懇。一定要勤加練習(xí),經(jīng)過(guò)一段時(shí)間的練習(xí),你會(huì)驚奇的發(fā)現(xiàn)自己一次比一次進(jìn)步了。
