Vicky发现，在雅思口语考试中，
尤其是part 1部分，
有很关于多yes/no的问题……
| 比 如 | Do you have a favorite pair of shoes? Do you enjoy spending time in natural places? Do you enjoy writing by hand? Do you have any favorite colors? 以及最最最常考到的： Do you like going shopping? |
这些问题看似很简单，却很容易答错，
还有很多孩纸气急败坏地问Vicky，
就答个yes or no，咋就那么多讲究？
且听Vicky细细道来！
先来看看中国考生最常见的错误
问题1：Do you watch TV very much?
错误回答1：“I rarely watch TV because I'm so busy with my work.”
诊断：没有直接回答问题。
错误回答2：
“Because I'm so busy with my work, I rarely watch TV.”
诊断：在回答 Yes/No 问题时, 避免用“Because”开头。
正确回答：
“No, I don’t. I rarely watch TV because I’m so busy with my work.”
“No, I don’t because I’m so busy with my work.”
“Not really, no. I rarely watch TV because I’m so busy with my work.”
问题2：Do you like basketball?
错误回答：Yes, I like basketball.
诊断：口语考试中尽量不要原封不动重复题目。
正确回答：
Yes, I do like it but, at the moment, I don'thave much time to play it or watch it on TV. (The word 'do' is spoken with strong word stress.)
什么样的答案才是考官喜欢的高分答案
回答这种Y/N的问题时，答案可以分成两个part
（两段式）
直接正面的回答问题。
后面接上必要的相关信息，可以是原因，解释，转折等。
正如Vicky在上文中提到的错误答案一样，同学们一定要记住：开头不要先解释原因，要先正面回答问题；以及不要原封不动的重复题目作为你的回答。现在让我们一起来看看什么样的答案分别能的几分。
Q
Do you like your job?
Answer a: No.
4分答案：
同学你是认真的么？真的不在多说点什么嘛？
Answer b: No, I don't.
5分答案：
这个答案也跟没说差不多，不管听没听懂，都可以这么说嘛，考官凭什么给你高分。
Answer c: No, I don't. It's too stressful, the working hours are too long – about ten hours a day – and the pay's much too low. I really want to find a better job.
6-7分答案：
二段式用的不错，后面给出了相关信息，解释了为什么不喜欢。但是仅仅用了No来表达否定。还差点意思。
Answer d: No, I don't, to tell you the truth. There's virtually nothing I like about it. For example, it's too stressful, the working hours are too long – about ten hours a day – and the pay's much too low. So, as you can imagine, I really want to find a better job.
7-8分答案：
终极答案，该有的都有啦~同学们可以学学这种表达，可以看出其实重点还是在答案的第二部分。当然，前提是点单的第一部分没有问题。
对比一下你自己的答案，你能得几分？
几种说Yes or No 的方法
①、最基本的简短方式
但是！同学们需要注意的是：这种简短回答在整个口语考试中最多最多也就用1次，否则拿了低分，别怪Vicky没提醒你们哦！
②、加副词修饰形容
”Yes, I certainly do.“+相关信息
经常用到的副词有：really, certainly, definitely, probably, possibly, usually, often, frequently, sometimes, never 等等。
③、直接用副词表达是否
"Definitely !"+相关信息
这种表达就更加的口语化了，就好像东北人说：”那必须滴！“一样生动，画面感十足有木有？
| 常 用 的 表 达 | “Certainly!” (“Certainly not!”) “Definitely!” (“Definitely not!” ) “Of course!” (“Of course not!” ) “Naturally!” “Not really.” “Not exactly.” “Not at all!” “Not in the least!” “Very much so!” “I suppose so.” (“I suppose not.” ) “I guess so.” (“I guess not.” ) “I imagine so.” “It depends.” “I'm not really sure but I imagine/guess/suppose so.” |
一个简单的Y/N问题竟然有这么多门道，
你在考试的时候有犯过相关的错误嘛？
