这次考试的时候,准备了part1 part2的所有题库(我准备了中文答案,然后用自己会说的语言说,每道题都准备了),part3我也一直keep talking,结果是6.5分
【考场回忆】
我戴上耳机以后,老师问我可不可以开始,我发现音量有点大,我说:it’s a little aloud, i need to adjust the volume.找了半天音量的钮在哪里,后来考官告诉我是不是在线上,然后我就顺利找到了,调了一下,他问我可不可以开始。我说:I’m good。
然后他问我full name。我听成了phone number。 我就开始报自己的手机号:My phone number is ***. 考官打断我,重新说了一次问题。
part1
1、你现在工作还是学生?
I am now working as a software tester. (不知道为啥,感觉他好像楞了一下)
2、Do you like your job?
to be honest, i am not very interested in my work. The things that i do is very repetitive. I prepare test cases and pretend to be a user to use the applications to find what goes wrong. Sometimes i need to do the same testing many times. it’s boring.
3、你以后还会做这个工作吗?
yes, i think so. Even though i don’t like my work, i still need to make money to meet the basic needs like food, accommodation.
4、What is the most popular animal in China?
cats and dogs are very popular in China. but in Tianjin, many old people have birds. i guess it’s because they sing well.
5、Did you have a pet?
when i was a kid, like 7 or 8 years old. My parents, they raised a dog. It’s a white dog.
6、what kinds of TV prgram do you like?
I like watching documentary because they give me many kinds of knowledge. and i think I have become a person with a wider range of knowledge than before. When people are talking about various kinds of knowledge, like history, literature, or even fashion. I have some knowledge of that and can understand what they are talking about, I don’t look like I am stupid and know nothing(万能原因,这里讲到一半被打断了一下,然后我心想这是万能原因,必须要讲完,就接着讲完了)
7、DO you think kids are watching too much television?
Yes. i guess it’s because parents are very busy. they don’t have time to play with their children, so they have to leave them with the television.
8、你小时候看电视多吗?
No, because my mum said television was not beneficial to our vision(这里纠结了一下,unbeneficial 后来改成not beneficial). and when children watch too much TV, they will sit there for a long time. it was not beneficial to the development of spine.(这里时态当时有点纠结,was or is,有self correction。when children watch too much TV, they will sit there for a long time 这里和我好像没有啥关系,好像是讲大家的情况,而且是不是时态也不太多?)
part2
Describe a time when you moved to a new home/school
You should say:
When you moved
Where you moved
Why you moved
And how you felt about it
我的回答:
2 years ago, I moved from Beijing to Tianjin because my husband’s(当时这里磕绊了一下) parents, they live in Tianjin. it would be more convenient for them to help to take care of my son. I feel happy i made this decision because it has helped me to improve my relation with my own parents. You might ask why, how. Actually, it is my neighbor who has helped me to resolve my relationship issues with my parents.
Before I got to know him, I felt distant from my parents. I didn’t know much about their day to day lives and i seldom talked to them about what was happening in my life. Whenever i visited them, we didn’t have much to say, and therefore there was awkward silence between us.
However, ever since i had a occasional talk with my neighbor,
i have been in contact with my parents more often. we often talk about some trivial things which on the face of it are not important but (这里被打断了,到时间了)
part3
1、你搬过很多次家吗?
yes, at first, i was at my hometown. then i go to Nanjing to go to university. Then i am in beijing. and now i live in Tianjin.(这里是回答最烂的一个问题。因为没准备过,临场发挥,边想边说,时态啥都都乱了。也有打结的情况)
2、为什么人们会搬家?
不同的人搬家因为不同原因。对年轻人来说,他们一般搬到大城市。因为他们容易找工作赚钱去买贵的东西;对老人来说,他们搬到countryside。因为environment is good. air quality is good. which 对他们的健康有好处。 并且it's very quiet(被打断)
3、在中国,容易买房吗
absolutely no. if young people want to buy an apartment in the city, their parents need to give all their savings to them so that young people could afford a very small apartment in the city. I guess housing problem is the main reason why young people don't want to have children. you know, in china, government set up regulations or legislations to encourage young people to have more babies, but if they don't solve this problem, young people will not want to have more babies.
4、到新环境,孩子更容易适应还是adult?
这里我想想一下逻辑链。就说tough question. give me a second. 然后想了几秒,也没想到啥逻辑链,就想到一个核心词现象:children are at the critical stage of development。这时考官又提示(催)了遍问题,就是换了个说法,又问了一次,我就开始说了:children are at the stage of development, they learn new knowlege quickly, they can adjust to the new situation easily. Adults, they already have their own habits, they don’t want to change….(后面又说了一些,忘了啥了,被考官打断)
5、有什么可以做的可以解决这个问题吗?
这个我也想了一下。然后套写作那个 both individuals and governments should take action. For individuals, they should raise their awareness that if they don’t change, they may not have work. For government, …(口语时间到了,被打断)
【原因分析】
考试的时候,我尽量没有说的很快,怕part1和2说的快,part3就很慢,看着像是背诵的。而且我把两个手都用上了,说话的时候,都比划着说,显得有真情实感。 比如说到:television was not beneficial to our vision(这里我还比划眼睛). and when children watch too much TV, they will sit there for a long time. it was not beneficial to the development of spine(这里我比划了下后背)。part2的时候,在说的过程中,我有看题目和看看笔记,显得是临场想的。
1、刚开始调音量的插曲,是不是我调音量用的英语用错了?
2、刚开始听错full name,导致回答错答案?
3、part1的第1个问题可能回答的不正宗?或者提前先把自己的工作交代了,显得是准备过的?
4、part1的第6个问题回答的时候如果被打断不应该继续讲,而是应该让考官继续问问题?
5、part1的第8个问题时态和有self-correction?
6、part2 有一处磕绊,并且万能故事没说完?
7、part3 第1个问题答得太烂,反映了真实水准(完全没有练过,这种时间顺序说好几件事的描述该怎么说),导致减分?
8、part3 第4个问题想的太久了?
9、part3 用的表达都太过简单了(因为都是挑自己最常用的表达方式,大多数主谓宾结构),没有复杂的句型?
10、part3、不应该总是被打断,应该大概有几句话说完就停下来,不用一直说直到考官打断
【我的问题】
1、不知道我自己分析这几点,有没有哪个地方其实是不影响分数的?
2、是否有其他原因导致的?
3、我的目标是7.5,下场考试(2周后)目标想看看能不能先上7,我有哪些重点练习可以做的?
