雅思/托福口說卡住怎麼辦?Speaking高分答題技巧!(IELTS/TOEFL fillers)
我是雨成!今天要來分享雅思和托福口說的考試技巧,其實除了考試之外,這些技巧也可以運用在其他需要開口講英文的場合,看完這篇文章讓你講英文時不再尷尬忘詞,也希望可以幫助到正在準備雅思和托福口說的芸芸眾生們!
What are FILLERS?
考英文口說時,聽完題目後馬上就要反應,也有可能需要邊講邊思考答案,這是很多人在口說時遇到的難題,這時候我們可以善用一些Fillers,也就是「填充句」,用來填補在思考答案時空白(尷尬的)時間,幫我們多爭取幾秒鐘思考、建構答案,雖然口說實力還是最重要的,但考試時難免遇到一些令人手忙腳亂的題目,所以建議大家平時可以練習使用一些Fillers以備不時之需!以下幫大家整理了在各種情況下可以使用的Fillers,記得!只要挑自己會用到的、看得順眼的背就好,且平時練習口說時就要多多使用,正式考試時才可以順利派出這些小工具!
When you need some time to think about the question …
- That’s an interesting question.
- I havn’t thought about this question before.
- That’s a tough question to answer.
- I need a couple of seconds to think about that.
- Where should I start?
- I’m not quite sure what to say here, but …
這一組是出現頻率最高的fillers,建議大家可以多背幾個,否則連續兩三題都用一樣的句子開頭的話會聽起來很不自然。
When you need a way to end …
- So, my answer to your question is …
- And finally, I’d say that …
- I suppose that would be my main point.
- My personal conclusion would be …
When you suddenly come up with a new or better idea …
- Another point would be that …
- I almost forgot to say that …
- There’s also something else to consider.
When you find what you’ve said is rubbish …
- What I’m trying to say is …
- Or to put it another way, …
- So, my main point is …
- Let me rephrase my answer.
When you forgot the word or what you’re trying to say …
- I’m not sure if this is the right way to put this, but …
- I’ve forgotten the work in English.
- It’s on the tip of my tongue.
最後的小提醒!考試前記得要練習用自然的方式使用這些fillers,可以找朋友或老師練習,或是錄下來自己聽聽看,真正派上用場時才不會有機器人講話的感覺,祝大家早日通過口說考試,也可以去看看我的其他文章,有看有幫助!我是雨成,下次見啦。
