口语考试考查什么?和大家分享一下口语考试时,考官对考生的考察点~~非常具体的哦~
Pronunciation
-
Overall, clear and understandable pronunciation is the main thing.
-
Secondly, the correct use of the following features will determine the pronunciation grade:
basic word pronunciation;
linked speech sounds;
correct and appropriate sentence stress (i.e., which word or words in a sentence are stressed more than others); and,
appropriate use of intonation (rising and falling) to emphasize meaning.
-
Slightly inaccurate (= unclear) pronunciation is usually understandable if the correct words and grammar are used but slightly inaccurate pronunciationcombined with other errors can result in language that is not understandable at all.
-
American pronunciation is acceptable.
Grammar
-
Basic grammar, especially the verb tenses. Know how to make the tenses and use them correctly.
-
Complex sentences: Don't just use simple sentences all the time. Instead, often use sentences composed of parts that are joined together with conjunctions and other linking words. (This is a "must" for a Band 6 or above in this sub-score.)
-
Complex structures: Show that you have some knowledge of higher level grammar.
Vocabulary
-
Show a wide range of vocabulary.
-
Use words suitably – don't try to impress with 'impressive' words you are not sure of.
-
Make sure you correctly pronounce words – don't just learn the written form of new words.
Fluency
-
Speed – push yourself to speak a little faster but only if your pronunciation is good.
-
Continuity – avoid unnaturally long pauses especially in Part 2.
-
Smoothness – use linked pronunciation and use contractions.
Coherence
-
Expand your answers with a suitable amount of relevant extra information (detail).
-
Use connectives to link sentences especially when expressing more complex ideas. (This is a "must" for a Band 6 or above in this sub-score.)
-
Answer questions directly.
-
Add extra relevant details in suitable amounts after first answering the key point of the question.
-
Link your answers to the questions by using the same verb tense.
-
Try to ensure that your answers to questions are suitable for the real meaning of the questions.
-
Show knowledge of the 'short form' of answer for 'Yes/No' questions.
