考官教你征服托福口語邏輯

One of the most important things a student should achieve while taking the TOEFL IBT speaking part exam is how to be able to speak logically. As a general rule in speaking, we are able to judge a person by the way he speaks. The common mistake student make is that they tend to speak without even thinking first. They answer in haste to a question thrown to them without even processing both the question and the answer. Many would agree that “silent water runs deep.” This means that people who talk less tend to speak with logic and authority than people who talk too much. Excellent answers for the test need not be lengthy, they can be short but they should be done with tact and really make a lot of sense. Most of the time, the answer becomes too long because of too much redundant words or phrases. Too much redundancy while taking the test will lessen your mark in the test. If vocabularies are too many, there is a greater risk of speaking foolishly. So, to be able to learn the strategies on how to speak logically, students should learn the following steps:

考托福IBT口語的時候，同學們不可遺漏的最重要的一點就是邏輯性。我們要通過這個口語中的基本原則來給考生打分。考生們常犯的錯誤就是口無遮攔，毫不思考。急急忙忙就隨口回答，絲毫都不對問題和答案稍加考慮。有說話富有邏輯性權威性的考生遠遠比說的多的考生受歡迎。好答案的標準不是長度，而是有條理。答案很長很多時候是因為有太多冗余的詞句。廢話太多會降低分數哦。言多也有可能有失哦。所以趕緊學習怎么讓你的口語富有邏輯吧。

Step1: STUDENTS SHOULD UNDERSTAND THE QUESTION FIRST 第一步：考生要先了解問題是什么

One crucial point to be able to speak logically in the test is by making sure that one truly understands the question or the problem that needs to be answered or solved. If the answer that one gives is not even related to the question, then the answer becomes totally illogical. Even if all the grammars, dictions and even the choice of words are carefully said, the whole thing becomes nonsense. As they say, human beings were created with two ears, two eyes and one mouth because God wants us to listen more, see and observe more and speak less. In the medical field, doctor should be able to find the sickness first before being able to prescribe the right medicine. To be able to give the best solution and answers, students must be able to know and understand what the problem or question is.

要讓口語有邏輯很重要的一點是你要真正理解問題的含義，知道應該如何解決問題，處理問題。要是你的答案跟問題毫不相干，答案就等于完全沒有邏輯性。即便語法啊，發(fā)音啊，措詞啊都很好，但是整個答案毫無意義。人有兩只耳朵，兩只眼睛，一張嘴，所以你要多聽，多看，少說。醫(yī)生也是要先找出病癥才能對癥下藥。同學們一定要先理解問題是什么。然后才能給出最好的答案和解決方案。

Step 2: LEARN TO ORGANIZE YOUR THINKING AND IDEAS 第二步：學會組織的你想法

I often hear students say “oops! I put my foot into my mouth again.” Students often speak words that they would regret later on once they are able to take the time to really think of the whole thing. Students often end up making the wrong decision or saying things that they would regret later on when they allow their emotion especially if it is negative to control them. To be able to speak logically requires a lot of brain power that is why it is logic. In the book of proverbs it says “as a man thinketh, so is he.” This simply means, students are what they think. During their idle times before the test, what students can do is think of questions, scenarios and situations of TOEL speaking test, then also think of the most logical answer that they can give. It is during this time that student’s brain is functioning more and not their emotion and adrenalin. They can process and practice everything properly without pressure. When the time comes that they come face to face with these questions, then they are prepared to answer confidently and logically because they were able to organize their thinking and plan ahead of time about the answer.

同學們常常在事后，等到有時間重新回想的時候再后悔。尤其是在充滿消極情緒的情況下，同學們常常做出錯誤的判斷，說出錯誤的話，等到平靜下來以后非常后悔。想要把話說得富有邏輯性是相當費神的事。在考前的空余時間里，同學們就應該思考問題，想想考試的場景，想想如何有邏輯性地回答問題。此刻，同學們的大腦勝過了情緒。能夠毫無壓力地練習。由于事前已經把想法組織好，一旦面對考試問題，同學們就已經準備好富有自信和邏輯地回答問題了。

Step 3: REHEARSE 第三步：演練

After organizing ones thought, students should practice on how to deliver their organized thing king and ideas out loud to themselves and, if appropriate, to a few others. Do it out loud because the words always come out right in your head, but if you have to speak them you'll catch some problems before hand. Most of the time students know what they want to say but when they say it out will be quite different from what they had thought. Do it again repeatedly. Keep doing it until you are comfortable and improved. Rehearsing is also a good way to build a student’s confidence in speaking. Practice makes perfect, it can really give student an ideal score in the exam.

組織好想法以后，同學們就要演練怎樣大聲對自己說了。如果可以的話，也可以對其他人說。大聲說出來!語言已經在腦海中形成了!不過你會發(fā)現(xiàn)一些問題。很多時候，同學們發(fā)現(xiàn)要說的跟所想的有些區(qū)別。那就一遍一遍反復說，一直說到你自己覺得舒服，有所提高為止。這對提升考生的自信有極大好處。熟能生巧，這真的會給你帶來高分哦。
 

Step 4: EXPRESS YOURSELF IN AN APPROPRIATE METHOD 第四步：用合適的方式表達出來

Examiners are smart and they see right through us. They can sense if students are being true to what we are saying or if we are just being hypocritical or just memorized some answers. One thing I observe is that the examinees that make a lot of impact to the examiners are those who speak sincerely and with passion from their hearts. They have the power to let the examiner know what they want to express and compel them without trying very hard. The whole thing should become very natural and effortless to have an excellent score. Mean what you say and say what you mean during the test.

考官們很聰明，他們總是很快看穿你。他們會意識到考生是在真的說還是背誦答案。那些能打動考官的考生往往真誠而富有感情。他們不費吹灰之力就可以讓考官理解他們的意思，打動考官，水到渠成得到高分。要在考試中為你所說的言語的賦予含義，也要說出你真正的意思。

Expressing themselves properly requires a lot of tact. Students should have to say what they have to say in the exam to be able to speak logically. Sometimes the way students express themselves make examiner decide whether they will give a high score or just the opposite. As students express themselves, they should always be mindful of their choice of words and even tone of their voice.

恰如其分地表達你自己也是一個技術活兒。在考試中同學們一定要注意邏輯性。有時候，同學們的表達方式會讓考官們判斷他們是不是要給高分。所以考生們在表達的時候，要小心用詞跟語調。

Step 5: BE CLEAR ON WHAT YOU WANT TO SAY 第五步：清楚地說出你想要表達的

To be able to be understood by the examiners, the student should speak with a firm, strong and confident voice. Examiners tend to pay more attention if the student speaks with confidence. On the other hand, examiners get bored and sleepy when the student speaks with a voice as soft as a whisper or as slow as a donkey walk. Each syllable should be pronounced very clearly and accurately. Of course, it would be best if the student can deliver their answer with the proper diction and accent. There are times that examiners get distracted with the accent of the student. Because of this, the examiners tend to get the wrong information as the student meant it this way, but his accent give the words different meaning already. Some examiners would then find the whole thing funny and weird. A student must have confidence to be able to speak clearly.

要想得到考官的理解，同學們應該以一種沉穩(wěn)，響亮，自信的聲音參加口語考試?？脊傧矚g說話自信的考生。另一方面，如果一個考生說話軟綿綿，慢吞吞，聲音小的像耳語，考官聽了簡直昏昏欲睡。我們每一個音節(jié)都要發(fā)音清晰準確。當然了，如果考生的措詞和口音也都不錯的話，那是再好不過的了。考官常常因為考生的口音錯會考生的意思，但是考生的口音又確確實實讓他說的話產生了歧義，有的考官會發(fā)現(xiàn)這現(xiàn)象又好氣又好笑?？忌欢ㄒ逦匦判氖愕乇磉_自己的觀點。

As much as possible, we should speak the words in layman’s term. Sometimes in an effort to impress the examiner, the student speaks high-sounding words that the examiners are not able to relate to. This tends to make the examiner feel that they are not smart enough to be able to understand what the “smart” speaker is talking about. I have observed that books and novels that are best sellers are those that people from all walks of life can relate to.

我們盡量不要使用專業(yè)術語。有時候考生竭盡全力口若懸河地向考官解釋那些考官完全不明白的東西?？脊贂X得自己像個白癡，沒法理解這自作聰明的考生在叨叨些什么。書上不是說過嗎?最好的的推銷員能跟來自社會各階層的人打交道。

Step 6: RELATE YOUR OPINIONS 第六步：敘述你的觀點

If students want to speak with logic, they have to speak of facts. But they are also free to give their opinions about the whole thing. They can give illustrations to prove their point, or they can just simply state their reasons for having the said opinion. They can even look at history and get their basis there. They can also consider the opinions of the majority of their classmates. They can gather some statistics, data or consensus to back up and support their opinions. In some cases, there are really no right or wrong answers, they are just a matter of differences of opinion. Thus, it can give student extra scores in TOEFL IBT speaking test.

同學們想要表達得有邏輯性，就要注意實話實說。當然了，考生有表達觀點的自由?？忌鷤兛梢詳[事實證明自己的觀點，也可以簡單地陳述理由。考生甚至可以以史為鑒，可以認可班上大多數同學的觀點，也可以用數據支持自己的觀點。有些情況下，答案沒有對錯之分，只是觀點相異而已。所以，同學們可以在托?？谡Z考試中得到意想不到的額外分數。

Step 7: LEARN TO RELAX ... YOU ARE READY FOR THE TEST 第七步：學會放松，你已經準備好了

You have prepared for this exam so there is no need to be worried. You know the material and you know what the examiners would like to hear. Now just go out and deliver a polished, rehearsed answer confidently. You have to believe that you can do it to be able to have an excellent mark.

你已經準備好了，完全沒必要擔心。你了解素材，了解什么是考官想聽的。勇敢自信地說出你千雕萬琢，數次演練過的答案吧。你要相信你自己完全有能力掌控考試，獲得高分。

To be able to speak logically in the test, students answers must be realistic, reasonable, time bound, manageable and attainable. It has to be based on facts and not merely on here says memorized, rumors, gossips, wild guesses, feelings, etc. They have to really understand what the question is all about. After having understood the question, they have to utilize their brain by organizing their thinking in order to produce a logical answer. Careless thinking gives careless answers. Do not give answers in haste especially when it is the emotion that is controlling us. For example when a student is nervous he/she cannot think in the right way. When nervousness overwhelms, logic is gone. Be true to what you are saying for there is conviction in it. Trying to impress examiner with your answer may lead us to give illogical answers because they are not sure on what they are saying. Eloquence in test is very important to be able to speak clearly and be understood by the examiner because your brains allow you to give reasoning. And also this allows you to think carefully about what you want to say.

要在考試中富有邏輯，同學們的回答要基于現(xiàn)實，合情合理，時間把握準確，可控易懂。一定要基于事實，不要只是夸夸其談自己的回憶，流言蜚語，猜想，感覺等等。同學們一定要理解問題是什么。理解了問題以后，就要在腦中組織自己的想法，形成有邏輯性的答案。草率的思考會導致草率的回答。別在情緒不穩(wěn)定的時候急急忙忙給出答案。比如說，一個考生在很緊張的時候，就沒法好好考慮他的答案。當緊張沖昏了頭腦，邏輯就無影無蹤了。一定要注意你的答案有說服力。試圖語出驚人不可取，這有可能使答案缺乏邏輯，因為這樣考生們往往無法確定他們所說的內容。你的大腦具有推理能力，所以這項考試中表達清晰，讓考官明白你的意思非常重要。這也同時要求你要仔細思考你到底要說什么。
