雅思口語成績低的罪魁禍首是“應(yīng)試心態(tài)”,你贊成嗎
有人說雅思口語成績低的罪魁禍首是“應(yīng)試心態(tài)”,你贊成這句話嗎?下面小編就給大家分析一下!
雅思口語成績低的罪魁禍首是“應(yīng)試心態(tài)”,你贊成嗎?
雅思考試一共分為四個板塊,分別為雅思聽力、雅思口語、雅思閱讀與雅思寫作。而在這四個板塊中,最令中國考生糾結(jié)與頭痛的莫過于雅思口語了。當然,雅思口語也是四個板塊中同學們平均得分最低的。
那么,同學們或者教英語的老師們有反思過為什么中國考生的雅思口語成績那么低嗎?當然如若同學們很簡單的認為僅僅是英語是第二語言,所以口語差是理所應(yīng)當,雅思口語考不好也是情理之中,那么這個問題也就無從探討了。
當然,也會有部分同學認為探討這個問題并沒有什么必要,畢竟大多數(shù)同學都不準備考雅思,而且就算準備考雅思的同學,也是抱著為了出國,不得不通過雅思考試,才臨時抱佛腳,準備起雅思口語考試,只要成績拿到手,那么就要和雅思說“分手”,更別說“雅思口語”了。
這是很多準備考雅思或者是已經(jīng)考完雅思同學的心態(tài),而恰恰是這種心態(tài),我們也可以稱之為“應(yīng)試心態(tài)”才是導(dǎo)致中國考生雅思口語成績低的罪魁禍首。
什么“應(yīng)試心態(tài)”呢?簡而言之,就是所有的準備與努力都是為了應(yīng)付考試,至于學習知識,提高能力等等,根本不在同學們的考慮范圍內(nèi)。這種心態(tài)難道僅僅只存在準備雅思考試中嗎?當然不是,君不見,中國眾多的大學生期末考試時的“突擊”以及準備英語四六級考試時的“刷題”都是這一心態(tài)的反映。
重新回到我們的主題來:為什么說應(yīng)試心態(tài)是中國考生雅思口語成績低的罪魁禍首呢?
對于這個問題,我們剛好可以從雅思口語的四個評分標準(fluency,流利; vocabulary,詞匯; grammar,語法;pronunciation,發(fā)音)來說明。
詞匯(vocabulary)
中國考生在準備雅思口語的時候,很多同學都抱著這樣一種莫名的心態(tài):即如果想要拿高分,就要用那些看起來很“高級”的詞匯。但是事實上,這恰恰是應(yīng)試心態(tài)的一種體現(xiàn)。哪位同學平時閑著無聊回去了解那些高級詞匯的真正用法呢?只不過為了應(yīng)付雅思考試所以臨時學幾個看起來“高級”的詞,然后期望用到口語考試中,讓考官眼前一亮。
但事實上,同學們所臨時學來的“高級”詞匯往往會讓自己的分數(shù)偏低,為什么呢?換用一下漢語思維,假如同學被問到為什么喜歡冬天,同學們很樸實的答因為冬天可以窩在家里,然后開始間接的用上“銀裝素裹”、“玉樹瓊花”詞語描繪雪花的漂亮,同學們可以自我反思一下,是不是感覺很不協(xié)調(diào)?而這也是雅思考官的感受,更別說,有些同學語法錯亂,還用上這些“高級”詞,更加令考官斷定同學口語很差。
語法(grammar)
語法的話不用多提,應(yīng)試心態(tài)盡在此中。很多同學為什么在考試之前就要多背一些標準的模板呢?正是因為深知自己的英語語法是什么水平,所以只能借助那些網(wǎng)上已經(jīng)被其他人檢驗過的模板,臨時的苦記硬背,才能應(yīng)付這一場雅思口語考試。如果在考場上遇到考官問一些從來沒有準備過的口語題目,僅憑著同學們平日的語法積累,同學們的心態(tài)肯定是“炸裂”的。
發(fā)音(pronunciation)
發(fā)音和應(yīng)試心態(tài)有關(guān),更是正常不過。想一想同學們學了十幾年的英語,但是基本上都是紙筆考試,一直以來老師對同學們的發(fā)音都沒有要求,當然因為沒有這相關(guān)的考試,同學們對自己的英語口音也沒啥要求,所以在準備雅思口語考試的時候,同學們把大部分的時間都花在了背語料上,至于發(fā)音,估計同學們更加沒有時間是考慮。從始至終,同學們都是抱著“應(yīng)試心態(tài)”準備雅思口語考試的,而在發(fā)音這一塊,雅思口語考試會讓同學們在栽一個不小的跟頭。
流利(fluency)
流利包含兩個方面,一個是單個句子之間流利,而這需要同學們對略讀、連讀、失爆等技巧有所掌握;二是句子與句子之間流利,這個對同學們的要求更高,同學們?nèi)绻艽_保一個section完整的回答是流利的,那基本上能夠說明同學們平時也在英語上下了功夫,也就是沒有抱著“應(yīng)試心態(tài)”。如果同學們僅僅是抱著應(yīng)試心態(tài)準備雅思口語考試的話,相信很多同學都是磕磕絆絆的考完全場,畢竟從來沒有接受過這樣的訓練,太難為人了!
歸根結(jié)底,同學們?nèi)绻胍玫窖潘伎谡Z高分或者單純的希望提高自己的英語口語的話,應(yīng)試心態(tài)真的不能有。它會從方方面面影響著同學,讓同學無法真正地把學習落到實處,只希望以最小的努力獲取最大的成功。但是這可能嗎?這是一個值得深思的問題。
