托福口语是需要经常练习才可有明显提高的,而且要针对真题的练习是最有效的。不管是托福口语考试的1,2题独立任务,或者是雅思考试的卡片,抑或就是普通与外国人的交流,大家首先要做到的就是摆脱chinglish:
1. 我没有经验。
I have no experience.
应说:I dont know much about that.
Note:I have no experience这句话听起来古里古怪,因为您只需要说:那方面我懂得不多,或者这方面我不在行,就行了。I am not really an expert in this area.
2. 这个价格对我挺合适的。
The price is very suitable for me.
应说:The price is right.
Note:suitable(合适的、相配的)最常见的用法是以否定的形式出现在告示或通知上,如:下列节目儿童不宜。The following programme is not suitable for children在这组句子中用后面的说法会更合适。
3. 你是做什么工作的呢?
Whats your job?
应说::Are you working at the moment?
Note:whats your job这种说法难道也有毛病吗?是的。因为如果您的谈话对象刚刚失业,are you working at the moment?接下来您才问:目前您在哪儿工作呢?Where are you working these days?或者您从事哪个行业呢?What line of work are you in?顺带说一下,回答这类问题时不妨说得具体一点,不要只是说经理或者秘书
4. 用英语怎么说?
How to say?
应说:How do you say this in English?
Note:How to say是在中国最为泛滥成灾的中国式英语之一,这决不是地道的英语说法。同样的句子有:请问这个词如何拼写?How do you spell that please?请问这个单词怎么读?How do you pronounce this word?
5. 明天我有事情要做。
I have something to do tomorrow?
应说:Sorry but I am tied up all day tomorrow.
用I have something to do来表示您很忙,这也完全是中国式的说法。因为每时每刻我们都有事情要做,躺在那里睡大觉也是事情。所以您可以说我很忙,脱不开身:Im tied up.还有其他的说法:Im I cant make it at that time. Id love to, but I cant, I have to stay at home.
6. 我没有英文名。
I havent English name.
应说:I dont have an English name.
Note:许多人讲英语犯这样的错误,从语法角度来分析,可能是语法功底欠缺,因为have在这里是实义动词,而并不是在现在完成时里面那个没有意义的助动词。所以,这句话由肯定句变成否定句要加助动词。
明白道理是一回事,习惯是另一回事,请您再说几话:我没有钱;I dont have any money.我没有兄弟姐妹;I dont have any brothers or sisters.我没有车。I dont have a car.
7. 我想我不行。
I think I cant.
应说:I dont think I can.
Note:这一组然是个习惯问题,在语法上称为否定前置,这就是汉语里面说我想我不会的时候,英语里面总是说我不认为我会。以后您在说类似的英语句子的时候,只要您留心,也会习惯英语的说法的,
8. 我的舞也跳得不好。
I dont dance well too.
应说:I am not a very good dancer either.
Note:当我们说不擅长做什么事情的时候,英语里面通常用not good at something,英语的思维甚至直接踊跃到:我不是一个好的舞者。
9. 现在几点钟了?
What time is it now?
应说:What time is it, please?
Note:What time is it now这是一个直接从汉语翻译过的句子,讲英语的时候没有必要说now,因为您不可能问what time was it
yesterday, 或者what time is it tomorrow? 所以符合英语习惯的说法是:请问现在几点了?还有一种说法是:How are we doing for time?这句话在有时间限制的时候特别合适
10.谦虚的态度
应说:I am not 100% fluent, but at least I am improving.
Note:有人开玩笑说,全中国人最擅长的一句英文是:My English is poor.实话说,我从来没有遇到一个美国人对我说:My Chinese is poor. 无论他们的汉语是好是坏,他们会说: I am still having a few problem, but I getting better.
当您告诉外国人,您的英语很poor,so what(那又怎么样呢),是要让别人当场施舍给我们一些英语呢,还是说我的英语不好,咱们不谈了吧。
另外一个更大的弊端是,一边不停的学英语,一边不停地说自己的英语很poor,这正像有个人一边给车胎充气,又一边在车胎上扎孔放气
以上就是关于如何说出地道托福口语的内容,口语的提高重在练习,要有一个英文环境对中国考生来说并不简单,那么我们就自己制造环境,多听英文歌,多看英文电影等等。最后祝大家在托福考试中考个好成绩。
