脑洞大开口语7分就是这样炼成的
2016-07-08编辑: 环球教育来自: 知乎
从之前辛辛苦苦战战兢兢的准备雅思,到现在要做15min seminar不带停的,我认为英语keep talking的核心就是:
脑洞大!有准备!使劲说!先变成主动型聊天者,再来慢慢提高自己的句式多样性和连贯性,然后慢慢扩充地道词汇。有些人中文聊起来都聊不high,然后就希望英文聊天可以源源不断滔滔不绝。这实在是不容易。
就比如我自己,虽然现在基本交流没问题了,但是只有在聊化妆,美剧,以及我自己的经历感想这种方面才能侃大山的聊,其他方面也还是不行的。
一般说不连贯两个原因:表达hold得住思维跟不上 vs 思维跟得上表达hold不住。
keep talking你首先要有素材,那我就先说这一段怎么办。
例子;
有一道题是要你描述曾经有过的一段难忘的经历。
首先第一条,你要有一个故事线。
哪怕说的很戏剧性,很夸张,也比一句话主谓宾说完了好啊!
我当时准备的故事线是这样子的(实际并没有发生)
脑洞开始了:初中的时候我性格比较内向,当时学校要办体育会,然后班里都没有一个人报名,我没办法,和班长是好朋友就卖了他个面子报名了,然后就怕跑得不好丢脸,每天放学去操场练习,还有我的好朋友没事也过来陪我我特比感动,我就有了xxx进步,跑步的那一天很紧张但是也拿了不错的成绩!然后我觉得我收获了友情温暖而且身体变好了......
然后发现可以两分钟都不带停的。
(Well, as for a sport event I have been to see, the most memorable and meaningful sports event of my life was a school sports meeting in secondary school. It was the first sports meeting that I participated in; I had lots of fun and it brings me great memories.
It has long been tradition that a sports meeting is held annually in my secondary school and all students are required to participate in the event. We signed up for different sports competitions, fighting for the honor of our classes. I went for a long run representing my class. I thought long run was nothing different from the normal running races we had except that it would take longer time. Thus I did not prepare much for the race.
It turned out that the long run was so intense and tiring that I almost wanted to renounce after the first lap. I felt so sweaty and breathless trying to keep up with the other participants. But then I saw some classmates running with me beside the field and they kept telling me to adjust my breathing and started cheering me up. I felt so touched and motivated by their actions. I could see the light at the end of the tunnel because of them. I told myself that I must carry on because I wasn’t fighting alone. I couldn’t believe that I finished the race and got a pretty good result.
All of us were so tired from the sports competitions and some of us even got injured. However, all our pains and efforts paid off as our class got the first prize in the sports meeting. We all fought like warriors for the honor of our class and more importantly, we were much closer and united as a team.
Frankly speaking, I remember the sports meeting well not only because we won
the competition but also because of the lessons that I have learnt.
Firstly, never give up easily because success always comes with perseverance. Secondly, the power of a team is always stronger than that of an individual so we should always cherish teamwork. )
后来我发现,此故事线还可以应用在“你曾经和朋友美好的经历” “你曾经一段励志的经历” 都可以用。脑洞大也可以体现在这里,抖个机灵,比如,要是再有个话题,说描述一位曾经帮助过你的人,你就可以在上面的故事线中加入一个帮助你锻炼跑步的人。
说本来自己身体素质一般的,最后在这个人的帮助下,拿到了不错的成绩等等
同理,比如让你说一个你喜欢的网站。
脑洞开始:我以前是不喜欢上网的,但是后来某某给我推荐了个网站,我发现哇好赞啊有很多直观的视频和图片,比之间看书有意思多了,直接看书好慢好枯燥而且你还得看,记忆,消化吸收再应用到实践,保不齐还有啥问题,而且这个网站的内容可好了有xxx,cxx和vxx,我觉得我喜欢的原因就是它可以给我带来xxx两分钟不在话下的!!
不知道大家能不能明白我的意思,就是一件事要往边边角角去说,往细节去说,而且不要怕夸张,美国人说话真的挺夸张的。而且语气很重。
基本上一个问题能够挖掘出来的点很多。人家只是问我一个网站,如果我只想说两三句,那就说一下谁给我推荐的,我为啥喜欢他,不要觉得自己这么说会显得很啰嗦,因为搞不好你会看起来像一个话题终结者,如果要你说很久,故事线的必要性就体现了。
比如别人要问你,你今天去超市买啥了?
我以前要是用英语回答就是:我买了xxx,没了
现在:
oh, I went to the drugstore with xxx trying to pick up some makeup stuff and do you know about the naked palette by urban decay? omg!!! Its soon beautiful i'v been wanting that for such a long time!! I can't believe I actually bought it , look at it!!! So pigmented !!It have several shimmery colors and several mad colors!!!so beautiful absolutely amazing can't want to try it on my face!
其实我就是说我买了个眼影盘而已。但是这说的太平淡了,老外可不是这么说的。
我的版本就是:我今天跟xx去药店随便买了点彩妆,有个眼影盘我想买想了很久了!就是xxx哪个牌子的,特别好看,不管相信就买下来了,上色度简直不能更赞,等不及上脸试了!
相信我,这才是正确的聊天方式!
为什么美国人比中国人更能随意的聊得来,那是因为她们平时的思维就是这样子的,除非和你特别不熟,不然说话滔滔不绝绵延不断!
这种素材脑洞思维的积累,是需要你平时不断练习的。
我平时就经常脑洞。而且是用英语
我觉得患抑郁症的人xxxx但其实感到抑郁和患抑郁症不一样,我以前有一段使劲经历了很多事,感到很抑郁,然后我xxxx xxxx xxxxx (又一段励志的经历)
你知道你要说啥,这是第一步!!第一步都没有,上来就谈英语怎么表达,怎么说显得更native,完全没用的,说两句就又说不下去了。
第二,就是在你有素材,知道要说啥的前提下。你发现你英语表达跟不上!!或者表达方式来回就是主谓宾,没了
