托福備考經驗：你值得擁有的提高口語竅門

­　　托福口語究竟怎么準備，其實不管什么樣的方法，最終都是自己的輸出能力在不斷提高。所以現有輸入才能有更高質量的輸出。今天這篇文章給大家幾個練習方法，幫助大家提高口語。

­　　隨時隨地練習口語

­　　Practice wherever you can and whenever you can. Any practice is good, whether you speak to someone who is a native English speaker or not.

­　　表達清晰為主，句型多樣為輔

­　　It’s important to build your confidence. If possible, use simple English sentence structure that you know is correct, so that you can concentrate on getting your message across.

­　　大膽運用所掌握的詞匯，不要過分拘泥于語法

­　　Try to experiment with the English you know. Use words and phrases you know in new situations. Native English speakers are more likely to correct you if you use the wrong word than if you use the wrong grammar. Experimenting with vocabulary is a really good way of getting feedback.

­　　透過身體語言理解對方意思并作出回應

­　　Try to respond to what people say to you. You can often get clues to what people think by looking at their body language. Respond to them in a natural way.

­　　避免直譯

­　　Try not to translate from or into your own language. This takes too much time and will make you more hesitant.

­　　遇到不知該如何表達的時候，用一些常用詞表示自己正在思考

­　　If you forget a word, do what native English speakers do all the time, and say things that "fill" the conversation. This is better than being completely silent. Try using um or er, if you forget the word.

­　　語速不要過快

­　　Don’t speak too fast. It’s important to use a natural rhythm when speaking English. But if you speak too fast, it will be difficult for people to understand you.

­　　說話時盡量放松，讓發音流利順暢

­　　Try to relax when you speak. When you speak English at a normal speed, you will discover that most of the pronunciation skills, such as linking between words, will happen automatically.

­　　后記

­　　Don’t be shy to speak! The more you practise, the more confident you’ll become.
