(完整版)研究生复试英语口语集锦
08考研英语初试已经结束了一个多星期,但考研英语复习并未结束,幸运的考生还将考研复试中迎接听力复试的考验,万学·海文考研辅导名师白洁建议考生利用复试准备的这段时间好好准备一下英语听力的训练。 (一)音、义结合,突破语音关
我国外语教学多年来对语言运用功能的重视不够,多围绕讲语法、练翻译进行,重视笔头,轻视听说,导致学生从初学外语开始就音、形、义分家,知其形、义,不知其发音的情况极为普遍。有的考生虽然有较大的词汇量、较清楚的语法结构概念,笔头能力达到了相当水平,但听力却停留在较低程度。他们有的人受地方音干扰发音不准,更多的人无法将语言的声音信息与其所代表的符号和其表达的意义联系起来,结果只能通过视觉来辨认和接收学得的语言知识,而无法通过听觉进行,因而造成“聋子英语”、“哑巴英语”。因此,要具备较强的听力理解能力,首先必须知道某一信息的正确的语音形式,要大胆开口说出来,大声朗读出来,能正确说出来的就不会听不懂。在说的过程中,要注意读音的准确性,有意识纠正自己的错误发音。如果自己发音不准,听懂地道的录音材料便无从谈起。因此,认识听与说的关系,打好语音基础,复习中注意辨音、音的同化(包括连读、失爆、弱读等)、重音以及英美语音差异等语音现象,是突破听力理解的第一关。 (二)摆正听、读顺序,培养良好的听音习惯
在外语学习过程中,学习者多数情况下都是先习得文字符号,从书面材料开始,通过视觉即阅读来接收、理解信息,即便是在输入音响信息时,脑子里也总是自觉不自觉地想着文字符号。这样久而久之就产生了对文字形式的依赖性,形成了本末倒置的不良听音习惯。考生在复习中切忌读后听音。先将听力材料读一遍,然后再听,表面上似乎听懂了,但实际上是读懂的,是靠脑子里储存的对阅读的记忆来理解音响信息的。照此下去,阅读非但不能帮助反而束缚和制约了听力的发展和提高。也切忌边听边读。听、读同时进行,似乎有助于听懂,但如果长期如此,会同样使听力陷入误区,即不能将大脑的思维活动集中在音响信息上,而是在听、读之间往返,听觉、视觉交替进行,导致精力分散,无法专心致志。因此笔者建议:一定要先听,即使一下子听不懂,也不要忙于看文字材料,这时再听第二遍、第三遍,如果还是听不懂,再求助于文字材料,但此时至少所听内容的语音形式已在你脑子里留下了一定的印象,甚至还能重复出来,借助于阅读使你理解了这些语音信息,一旦同样信息在另一种场合再现时,便不再成为难点,这才能达到阅读促进听力的目的。 (三)边听边记,训练短期记忆能力
听力复试题大部分都是非常具体的细节,音响信息瞬间即逝,有时单凭大脑记忆是不够的,需要强化记忆的内容必须随时笔录下来,对此我们建议考生:
(1)练习听写,平时听录音时就要有意识地将关键信息写下来,一方面训练信息接受的准确性;另一方面培养短期记忆、正确拼写单词的能力。练习听写还能强制性地迫使自己全神贯注、积极思考。
(2)学会用最简单、最省时、自己最熟悉的符号记录信息,只要自己能识别的,汉字、代码、符号什么都行。长单词可以暂记两三个字母,用箭头表示方位或发展方向等。总之,要有意识地训练自己的速记能力,借助于记录,使自己听得准,听得全,记住得多,回答得正确。
(四)熟悉语义及语篇衔接词功能,把握信息走向
在听音过程中,考生的思路要想跟上录音的意流,把握信息的走向,必须将注意力投放在识别某些信号词上,这对提高获取信息的效率起着至关重要的作用。所谓信号词,是指人们在交流过程中用来构架语句间、语段或语篇的脉络,以帮助他人理解或抓住说话人思路的逻辑关系衔接词。这些词按其功能分为:表示列举、增补关系的信号词,如and、in addition to、one more thing等;表示转折或对比关系的信号词,如although、 by contrast、as a matter of fact等;表示顺序或序列关系的信号词,如first、before、first of all等;表示解释或强调关系的信号词,如that is、in particular、I mean等;表示因果关系的信号词,如as a result、therefore、since等;表示归纳、结论性关系的信号词,如as a result、altogether、finally等;表示各种语义衔接关系的常用词句,如And now we will… 、I’d like to move o n to…、now tell me等。掌握了上述信号词及其功能,考生就能意识到说话人先说什么、后说什么,什么时候转问题,即便是遇到生词或错过了一两句,也可以对上下文内容做出合乎逻辑的推测判断,保持思维的连贯性,更好地理解整个语段的内容。 (五)增加文化背景知识,提高理解质量
在听力复试中,考生有时觉得似乎听清了内容,却回答不出问题,这种理解上的障碍往往不是来自于语言本身,而是由于缺乏文化背景知识或知识面过窄,或不了解涉及某一领域常见词汇所造成的。
因此,考生在备考时应广听、泛听,注意在阅读文章中汲取文化营养,注重背景知识的积累,有意识扩大知识面,不断完善自己的知识结构。掌握了文化背景知识,理解起来自然就轻松多了。当然,背景知识只能帮助却不能代替对语言的掌握,如果没有听懂语言本身,而单纯凭背景知识进行猜测,也是不可取的。 (六)培养良好的心理素质,临场超水平发挥
良好的心理素质也是听力理解取胜必备的因素。听力是中国考生的弱项,很多人缺乏自信心,对听力存有恐惧心理,未听先怕,以至于使本来就相对紧张的状态更加紧张。因此,考生应认识到,考场不仅有知识的拼搏,更有心理素质的考验,作好心理准备是语言因素之外的必备临考条件。我们建议考生复试前尽量放松,避免精神过度紧张;听时全神贯注、沉着应变,万一遇到没有听懂或漏听的情况,应及时稳定情绪,千万不要慌了手脚,或注意力长时间滞留,这时应遵循“丢卒保帅”的原则,及时转入后续内容。 (七)选择合适的听力材料,精、泛结合,达到事半功倍的效果
选择合适的听力训练材料,对于有效利用时间,少走弯路,在相对短的时间内提高听力水平也是一个重要因素。关于听力材料的选择,我们认为,应该从两方面考虑:
一是难度适中,即从自己的实际水平出发,选择难易程度适合的材料。材料难度太大,会丧失信心、失去兴趣,产生恐惧感;过于简单,易盲目乐观、缺少压力,不利于提高。可以从三个方面把握难度:①语速快慢;②篇幅长短;③题材和体裁。关于语速,笔者不赞成从慢速材料听起,而是强调坚持听正常速度的录音。可以在用词范围、篇幅及材料体裁、题材上降低难度,最好不要以牺牲语速来求得理解上的轻松。因为我们毕竟最终目的是要听懂自然语速的交流,况且流畅的语流可强制性刺激大脑快速反应,迫使听者全神贯注,专心致志。这样做最初考生可能感到不适应,听不懂,但多听几遍,连续听一段时间,就会有明显进步。
二是录音材料的种类。现在市场上录音材料一种是教材中阅读课文的录音带,第二种是听力教材的录音带,属于专门用来训练听力技能的录音,其特点是,从练习语音开始,分步骤、按阶段、循序渐进、系统完整,既有讲解又有练习,还总结归纳方法技巧,并按题材分单元逐个训练,适于学生从低到高,由易到难,打好扎实的基础,逐步提高水平。 上述任何一种材料都可以从某一个角度对考研听力起一定的作用,但都不能说与考研听力复试吻合,根本的还是应该从提高听力水平入手。
复试中的口试要求
从以下三个方面进行评价:
1、语言准确性(语法和用词的准确性、语法结构的复杂性、词汇的丰富程度、发音的准确性)
2、话语的长短和连贯性(内容的连贯性、寻找合适词语而造成的停顿频率及长短、表达思想的语言长短等)
3、语言的灵活性和适合性(语言表达是否灵活、自然,话语是否得体,语言能否与语境、动能和目的相适应) 评价成绩为:
a优秀--能用外语就指定的话题进行口头交流,基本没有困难
b良好--能用外语就指定的题材进行口头交流,虽有些困难,但不影响交流 c及格--能用外语就指定的话题进行简单的口头交流 d不及格--不具有口头表达能力
口试内容与结构
分为两部分,有两名教师参加口试工作,一名教师主持口试,随时与考生交谈并评分;另一名教师专事评分,不参与交谈。两名口试教师所给的分数各占口试成绩的50%。
第一部分:考查学生理解并回答有关日常生活、家庭、工作、学习等问题的能力(3分钟)。
第二部分:考查学生连续表达的能力。考生从所给你的问题中选择一个话题,就此话题表达自己的看法(3分钟)。口试用材料(部分,仅供参考)

关于录取复试时的口试问题:
口试去年一共分3部,总用时大概10分钟!
1、自己准备一个introduction!要求脱稿说大约3分钟。
2、念一篇短文,是到试场以后临时抽题,大约有3分钟的时间提前先看一遍,难度不大! 3、抽题---回答问题。要先念一遍问题,然后回答! 全程录音,有A、B、C、D、E五个分值!
所要说的是:大家应该先把自己的introduction提前准备好,趁这些天没有事情可做。还有就是看一看,抽到什么问题怎么回答!下面我把我的introduction给大家写一下吧!我口试只得了B,主要是因为最后那个问题没有回答好,对于introduction,老师们应该还是比较满意的!虽然很不好,但是为了大家,我就献丑了!不要扔鸡蛋啊!
Good morning/afternoon,my dear teachers:
my name is CC,23 years old,I graduated from XX University in 1999.I also have an English name.My English name is Stell,that means a star.I take stell as my English name because my Chinese nickname is BeiBei which means star in Chinese.
I have many hobbies,I like music、chinese chess、sports、and I like English very much I improve my oral and listening ability by listen English songs and watch English movies.I passed CET6 this year.But I do think my English is not good enough,so I will do my best to study English.
Thank you for your attention!
由于时间长了,记得也不是很清楚,错误再所难免,大家不要见怪啊!其实你如果
introduction写的不多就可以念慢一点!这样就可以保证时间了,而且建议一定要自己写,这样自己说出来比较自然,关键是pronunciation!相信每一个口语老师都是最注重这一点的!另外,我抽到的题是:if you are millionaire,how to spend the money!
我考了两次口试,第一天是外语老师考的,她就是随便问,先都是最简单的东西,最后会有一个很难的问题,好象是关于时事的,让你发表自己的意见。第二天是我们所里的老师,让我用英语谈谈教育的观点!我当时口语考试是这样的,先是selfintroduction,然后抽题目演讲,我抽到的是,“交流能力对学术研究影响大吗?”,说完后,老师就随便问一些问题,主要是关于为什么报考我们学校,为什么选择这个专业,对桂林印象如何等。
Good morning:
My name is XX, you can also call me Eason,I has such an english name just because the pronunciation of it is like my chinese name. I graduated from this university last year(如果你是考本校的,这一句很重要,一开场就表明自己的身份,我们考的时候,老师拿到的名单只有名字,没有资料,他又不认识你,于是你必须自己说明), and major in computer science, I liked computer very much, especially in multimedia technology, and wanted to make some achievement in this field, but when I finished my school, I realized that what I had learned was not enough for this target, I thought it would be great if I can continue my interest in that, so that was why I choose to further my study with a master degree.
Well, in my spare time, I like soccer, pop music, and stamp, being a soccer fan, I always show my love to Manchester United and Ryan Giggs is my favorite. I also like English very much, and had passed Band six this year, but I do think it’s still a long way to study it, so I wouldn’t give up my English studying, and improve my oral and listening ability.
So that’s all, thank you.
我记得当时我还说了其他的一些废话,但把他们写到上面的话,整篇文章就很不通顺和协调,但毕竟是口语,有多少就说多少吧。 先是一段自我介绍。大约3分钟的时间,我本来打好了稿子后来见了老师全忘记了,只好自我发挥了。后面是专业翻译。老师拿了一本外文专业原著,然后选出来一段让我翻译,简单的很。后面就没有什么了。中间老师都是用英语交流的。反正我想工科的不会太刁难人的。
从2005年起研究生初试中英语取消听力,英语听力和口语的考查放到复试中进行,英语听力和口语的分值要记入总分,所以英语听力和口语测试是研究生复试中的重要组成部分。因此,考生在对专业课进行复试准备的同时也要抽出时间对英语口语和听力做认真的准备。 英语的复试基本围绕听力和口语展开。良好的英语听说能力是复试成功的保证。复试中对英语的听说能力考查比较多,有时候也会涉及一些专业性的问题。导师也大都比较在意自己弟子的英语水平。自我感觉上线的考生要开始温习自己的英语听力和口语了。
听力准备提前预热
英语听力部分,大多数学校都以现有的成型考试为参考。考生在准备听力复试的过程中,对于现有的成熟英语考试的听力部分一定要重视,在复习时可以有针对性地做一些六级或托福听力或雅思听力的试题。如果觉得做题太枯燥,收听一下英语新闻,看看迪斯尼的动画片或者看看原声的英语大片,也是培养语感的好方法。
听英语广播和看英语电影也是提高英语听力口语的好方法,在参加复试前这段有限的时间里要尽快熟悉与考试相近的内容。考生大都考过六级听力,并不陌生,而托福听力又是四六级听力命题的基础,熟悉了四六级和托福听力;英语复试问题就不算太大。总之,在这段宝贵的时间里,要赶快做点预热的准备,主要是做点听力题,找找做题的节奏和感觉。 口语提前备话题
对口语的考查,各个学校各不相同。有的学校制定了非常详细的标准和流程,甚至规定了每个老师发问的方式和时间;有的只是面试老师的自由发挥,成绩也基本上由面试老师主观判定。不管面试是否严格控制,考生对下面几个问题一定要认真准备: 1、有关自我介绍的话题
有必要预先准备一些有关自己情况的话题,然后,找一个会英语的伙伴或朋友帮忙。如果周围没有适合的人选,也可以自己训练。有关这方面的训练要尽量达到流利的程度。 2、准备一些可谈论的话题
对有可能问到并展开的话题也要有所准备。考生事先阅读一些相关文章,积累一些有关词汇。一般来说,西方的面试官最感兴趣的话题是考生所在国家或地区的文化和风俗习惯,如气候特征,特色食品,婚庆习俗,重大节日,名胜古迹,休闲娱乐等。同时,考生也要关心社会上发生的大事和时事。最好经常阅读一些英文报刊和收听英语广播,或跟同伴及朋友一起讨论一些话题,这些都将有助于自己组织思想和练习表达的逻辑性。 3、准备用英语讲解自己专业
口语测试时老师有可能要求你就本专业展开话题,考查你用英语讲解陌生概念的能力。因此熟悉本专业常用的英语词汇,适当阅读最新的专业外文期刊是必要的。
从2005年起研究生初试中英语取消听力,英语听力和口语的考查放到复试中进行,英语听力和口语的分值要记入总分,所以英语听力和口语测试是研究生复试中的重要组成部分。因此,考生在对专业课进行复试准备的同时也要抽出时间对英语口语和听力做认真的准备。

传统面试问题(Sample Traditional Interview Questions)
1、\"What can you tell me about yourself?\" (\"关于你自己,你能告诉我些什么?\")
This is not an invitation to give your life history. The interviewer is looking for clues about your character, qualifications, ambitions, and motivations.
这一问题如果面试没有安排自我介绍的时间的话。这是一个必问的问题。考官并不希望你大谈你的个人历史。是在寻找有关你性格、资历、志向和生活动力的线索。来判断你是否适合读MBA。
The following is a good example of a positive response. \"In high school I was involved in competitive sports and I always tried to improve in each sport I participated in. As a college student, I worked in a clothing store part-time and found that I could sell things easily. The sale was important, but for me, it was even more important to make sure that the customer was satisfied. It was not long before customers came back to the store and specifically asked for me to help them. I'm very competitive and it means a lot to me to be the best.\"
下面是一个积极正面回答的好例子:\"在高中我参加各种竞争性体育活动,并一直努力提高各项运动的成绩。大学期间,我曾在一家服装店打工,我发现我能轻而易举地将东西推销出去。销售固然重要,但对我来说,更重要的是要确信顾客能够满意。不久便有顾客返回那家服装店点名让我为他们服务。我很有竞争意识,力求完美对我很重要。\"
2、 \"What would you like to be doing five years after graduation?\"(\"在毕业以后5年内你想做些什么?\")
Know what you can realistically accomplish. You can find out by talking to others MBA about what they accomplished in their first five years with a particular company after graduation.
\"I hope to do my best I can be at my job and because many in this line of work are promoted to area manager, I am planning on that also.\"
你要清楚你实际上能胜任什么。你可以事先和其他的MBA交流一番。问问他们在毕业后在公司的头5年都做了些什么。
可以这样回答:\"我希望能在我的职位上尽力做好工作,由于在同一领域工作的许多人都被提为区域负责人,所以我亦有此打算。\"
3. \"What is your greatest strength\"?\" (\"你最突出的优点是什么?\") 这是很多面试考官喜欢问的一个问题。
This is a real opportunity to toot your own horn. Do not brag or get too egotistical, but let the employer know that you believe in yourself and that you know your strengths.
\"I feel that my strongest asset is my ability to stick to things to get them done. I feel a real sense of accomplishment when I finish a job and it turns out just as I'd planned. I've set some high goals for myself. For example, I want to graduate with highest distinction. And even though I had a slow start in my freshman year, I made up for it by doing an honor's thesis.\"
这是你\"展示自己\"的最佳机会,不要吹嘘自己或过于自负,但要让雇主知道你相信自己,你知道自己的优点。
如可答:\"我认为我最大的优点是能够执着地尽力把事情办好。当做完一件工作而其成果又正合我的预想时,我会有一种真正的成就感。我给自己定了一些高目标。比如说,我要成为出色的毕业生。尽管在大学一年级时我启动慢了些,但最终我以优等论文完成了学业。
4. \"What is your greatest weakness?\"(\"你最大的弱点是什么?\") You cannot avoid this question by saying that you do not have any, everyone has weaknesses.
The best approach is to admit your weakness but show that you are working on it and have a plan to overcome it. If possible, cite a weakness that will work to the company's advantage. \"I' m such a perfectionist that I won't stop until a job is well done.
你不应该说你没有任何弱点,以此来回避这个问题;每个人都有弱点。最佳策略是承认你的弱点,但同时表明你在予以改进,并有克服弱点的计划。 可能的话,你可说出一项可能会给公司带来好处的弱点,如可说:\"我是一个完美主义者。工作做得不漂亮,我是不会撒手的。\"
5. \"How do you feel about your progress to date?\" (\"对于你至今所取得的进步你是怎样看的?\")
Never apologize for what you have done.
\"I think I did well in school. In fact, in a number of courses I received the highest exam scores in the class.\" \"As an intern for the X Company, I received some of the highest evaluations that had been given in years.
绝不要对你以前的所作所为表示内疚。
如可答:\"我认为我在学校表现不错。事实上,有好几门功课我的成绩居全班第一。\"\"在某公司实习时,我获得了该公司数年来给予其雇员的好几项最高评价。\"
