雅思口語(yǔ)考試中的3個(gè)“怎么辦”
1)What if a candidate doesn’t know anything about the topic in Part 2?
The topics are carefully chosen to reflect common experiences, so candidates don’t need special knowledge to talk about them. It is extremely unlikely that a candidate would be unable to talk about the topic given.

1)如果考生不理解第二部分的話題怎么辦?
精心選擇的話題反映的是極為常見(jiàn)的經(jīng)歷,考生回答時(shí)無(wú)需特殊的知識(shí);無(wú)法回答話題卡上的問(wèn)題的情況發(fā)生概率是極低的。
點(diǎn)評(píng):如果實(shí)在不會(huì)回答,可以要求更換,但一定要想好恰當(dāng)?shù)睦碛桑⑻拐\(chéng)告訴考官。
Can a candidate start speaking before the 1 minute preparation time is over?
Yes. If a candidate doesn’t need the whole minute, s/he can begin speaking when s/he is ready. It is advisable, though, for candidates to make full use of the preparation time.

2)可以在第二部分話題卡的1分鐘準(zhǔn)備時(shí)間結(jié)束前開(kāi)始作答嗎?
可以;但是建議充分利用1分鐘的準(zhǔn)備時(shí)間。
3)What should a candidate do if s/he doesn’t understand a question or the Part 2 task?
The candidate should tell the examiner. S/He should say s/he doesn’t understand. In Part 1 or 2 the examiner will be able to repeat the question. In Part 2 the candidate should look carefully at the task card because the prompts may help them guess the meaning of a word they have not understood. In Part 3 the examiner will be able to reformulate the question, or may be able to offer further clarification, depending on the particular difficulty.

3)如果考生不理解考官所問(wèn)的問(wèn)題或是第二部分的話題卡的問(wèn)題,該怎么辦?
考生可以告訴考官?zèng)]有聽(tīng)懂問(wèn)題。在第一部分中,考官會(huì)重復(fù)問(wèn)題;在第二部分中,考生應(yīng)仔細(xì)閱讀問(wèn)題下面的提示(prompts),這將有助于揣測(cè)對(duì)問(wèn)題中某一個(gè)陌生詞匯的理解;進(jìn)入第三部分后,考官會(huì)對(duì)問(wèn)題重新措辭,或者根據(jù)問(wèn)題的難度提供進(jìn)一步的解釋。
點(diǎn)評(píng):當(dāng)請(qǐng)求考官改述問(wèn)題時(shí),最好的說(shuō)法是:“Could you please rephrase the question?”。“Pardon?”往往只是讓考官再重復(fù)一遍問(wèn)題,如果你的不理解是因?yàn)閱?wèn)題中的生詞造成的,那么重復(fù)是于事無(wú)補(bǔ)的。當(dāng)然,“Could you please rephrase the question?”往往不太適用于第一部分?脊偬釂(wèn):“Do you like shopping?”你說(shuō):“Could you please rephrase the question?”就實(shí)在是小題大做了。
