1. 当你想说but来转折语气,不妨忍一下,然后在句子后面加个though,立马瞬间洋气了许多!例如: Our team lost. It was a good game, though. Middle-aged people like to cook at home, young adults are a bit different,though. 2. 多用副词,例如exactly, basically, really这些副词可以加强或者缓和语气,更准确的表达我们的真实想法。比如: That s exactly what I want! Where are you going exactly? So basically, there s not a lot I can do about it. The more expensive articles are not necessarily better. 3. 简单不易出错的同位语从句可以为你的语言增色不少哦!例如: People are now aware of the fact that many restaurants are not thathygienic. Despite the fact that she was wearing a seat belt, she was thrown sharplyforward. 4. 强调句式用起来,也会增加语法的广度哦,例如礼物类话题的万年句式: It doesn t matter how expensive the gift is, it s the thought thatmatters. 5. 当你想说most of… 的时候,不妨改口成tend to,词汇量有没有显得多一些!例如: Most Chinese people cook at home instead of dining out. 就可以说成Chinese peopletend to cook at home. 6. 口语答案里面呢,要有意识的尽可能抛弃very,一种方法是用pretty替代,另一种就直接用个更高级的形容词。例如: That performance was pretty impressive. I m pretty sure about that. 还有instead of saying “very angry”, you can use the word “furious”. 那同理,如果我们想表达a little + adj.,也可以找到相应的更传神的形容词,例如: tipsy = a little drunk 7. 提到形容词,我们可以先把他们分成两类:褒义贬义。 那“广谱”的褒义词就是经常说的fantastic,awesome,terrific,fabulous,fascinating。“广谱”的贬义词呢,就是awful,terrible,horrible等等。 当我们在形容好东西坏东西的时候,当然可以用这些词,不过其实对于具体的事物,是有相应的形容词来搭配的,就像我们中文里,“景色真好”和“景色让我心旷神怡”文采是不一样滴!所以,平时注意积累这些形容词,会给你加分不少。例如: 形容食物:delish,inviting,mouth-watering,scrumptious等等。 形容风景:picturesque,breathtaking,magnificent等等。 8. 形容词前加副词,也是不错的应急措施哦,如果实在想不到高大上的形容词了,就用一个副词来加强一下情感吧,例如: She s shockingly beautiful. It s an outrageously expensive meal. 9. 同学们在回答问题的时候,其实自己也觉得说个No很伤感情,那怎么能用比较不伤感情的语言表达同样的意思呢,下面的几句可以记一下: -Does your school have diving classes? -Not that I m aware of, no. (至少)我不知道。(潜台词:可能有,不过我不知道。) -Have you ever had the experience when you watched the sky for a longtime? -Not that I can think of, no. 我想不到。(潜台词:可能有,不过我暂时想不到,暂时记不起来。) -Do you love nature? -Well, not really. I m more of an indoor person. 注意,每一个yes or no之后,一定要加原因哦! 10. “mean”要用起来。 “I mean”可以用来解释刚刚自己抛出去的话,比如,在解释自己最不喜欢的电影的时候可以说: That movie was so boring, I mean, nothing happened for the first hour! 这个也可以有很灵活的变体:and by… I mean…,比如: He has a gorgeous wife, and by wife I mean mistress. (此例子完全为了解释用法…) “You mean…?”该句式是为了跟考官check information,如果你不想用“I msorry?”来重复问题,你完全可以用它来确定一下自己的理解是否跟问题吻合。 注意:一般这样问,是已经理解了八九不离十,如果真的完全没听懂问题,请用以下句式: Sorry, I didn t quite catch it. 不好意思没听清,能在重复一下子不? Sorry, could you slow down, please? 不好意思您能把语速放慢点儿不? Sorry, can you rephrase the question, please?不好意思您能解释一下刚才的问题不?(就是问题里面有生词,此时无论考官repeat几遍问题,你也不可能懂,所以需要麻烦他rephrase改述一下问题) |
