  考试简介:
  
  准备英语水平考试口试,考生应围绕功能和一定的话题进行,应就日常生活中的一般情景进行恰当的交谈,就社会生活中一般的话题进行连贯发言,要求能确切表达思想,语音语调基本正确,语言基本得体。
  
  特别需要掌握的语言功能有如下几种:
  
  1、Greetings and Farewells
  
  2、Making Introductions
  
  3、Asking for Information
  
  4、Invitations
  
  5、Making Requests
  
  6、Asking for and Giving Opinions
  
  7、Agreeing and Disagreeing
  
  8、Apologizing and Complaining
  
  9、Congratulations and Compliments
  
  对于表达这些功能的句型或语言结构必须反复练习,力求做到“脱口而出”。除此之外,不要学会在具体情景下所采用的表达用语,如Telephoning, Asking the way, Travel by bus, At the post office, In a restaurant 和 Seeing the doctor等。同时,我们要求考生能把上述的语言功能与具体情景配合起来使用,以便提高在特定的情景下口头表达的准确性、流利性和得体性。
  
  口语考试中的第三题是就日常生活和社会生活中的一般话题进行自由交谈和专题讨论。考生反映这道题比较难不容易考好。为了帮助考生准备口语考试,下面介绍一下日常生活和社会生活中的一般话题包括哪些内容。口试中涉及的主要话题如下:
  
  1)   Home and family
  
  2)   Food and drink
  
  3)   Medicine
  
  4)   Smoking and health
  
  5)   Work and leisure
  
  6)   Travel and transport
  
  7)   Sport and recreation
  
  8)   Education

  16)  Religion and belief
  
  17)  Computers
  
  18)  Tourism
  
  19)  Social change and traditions
  
  20)  War and peace
  
  考试程序:(对北外考场的回忆,不一定准确)
  
  ——楼外排队(和报名时一样);
  
  ——进第一预备室(大队人马上好几层楼);
  
  ——等待(不用紧张^_^ );
  
  ——进第二预备室(一次放进十到二十人);
  
  ——抽考题纸(一共就可数的几类考题纸,就是说,有好几个人抽到的题是一样的);
  
  ——读题、理解、消化和思考,准备回答问题(大概有五分钟到十分钟时间,记不清了);
  
  ——进考场(一次一人,面对两个老师),回答问题,和老师对话;
  
  ——离开(这时才感觉到其实非常简单轻松!)。
  
  考试题型:(在抽到的考题纸上,共三题)
  
  水一:
  
  第一题,在预备教室内默读考题纸上的一小段对话,准备到考试教室就对话内容回答几道问题(由老师口头提问);
  
  第二题,考题纸上给出了三种情景,准备回答就如何应对其中一个情景的问题(只考其中一个情景,但都要准备);
  
  第三题,考题纸上给出了一个话题和几个就此话题老师会提的问题,脑子里迅速打个草稿,准备和老师在此话题上进行一段对话(主要是自己陈述)。
  
  水二:
  
  和水一大致相同。第一题的对话内容相比水一稍长稍复杂;第二题和水一区别不大;第三题,在考题纸上给出两个话题,老师会选其中一个考,形式和水一相同。
  
  其实题型看一下教育报上的模拟试题就清楚了,怕大多数同学没买到那两期教育报,我还是贴上来给大家参考吧:

  水平考试(二)口试模拟试题(1)
  
  I.Prepare yourself to read the following dialogue and answer some questions about it. .
  
  Interviewer: Do you think the public schools are a good thing or a bad thing, Mr. Martin?
  
  Mr. Martin, I think it's a very much a bad thing. You see, I totally disagree with the idea that anyone should be about to buy their children a better education than another. The thing is the public schools help to keep the idea of a ruling elite alive and work against social change. I think I would like to see all private schools absorbed into the state education system and every child allowed the chance of the same education. There is a very strong argument that the pressure of those parents whose children at present go to public schools would soon bring about a great improvement in the state system.
  
  Interviewer: Mrs. Jones, do you agree with Mr. Martin?
  
  Mrs. Jones: No, I don't. I think public schools are a good thing. You see, if we could afford it , my husband and I would send our sons to a public school when they reach secondary school age. I think public schools finish them off, burn them into gentlemen, and give them a good start in life. The good thing about public schools is that those who go to a public school can mix with other children who come from good backgrounds. The only thing I can think of against them is that only very few public schools are co-educational. It’s a shame, isn't it? I mean, mixing with both sexes from a very early age is a good thing, particularly when boys don’t have a sister.
  
  Ⅱ。Three situations are given below. You will be required to respond to them in the examination.
  
  1. You are talking to one of your friends about diet. He or she suggests that people should eat less, but you don't agree. What do you say?
  
  2. Your employer thinks you've done an excellent job on a difficult assignment. How would you respond to his or her compliment?
  
  3. You are watching an interesting TV program, but all of a sudden, there is a power failure. What do you say?
  
  Ⅲ。Go over the following topics carefully and be prepared to speak for about 3 minutes on either of the. You may make notes on a piece of paper and refer to them during your talk, but you mush not write out the complete talk and simply read it aloud.
  
  1. Nowadays wherever we travel in Beijing, we find foreign restaurants which offer Japanese food , American food or other foreign food. What are your views on foreign food? What kind of foreign food do you like or dislike?
  
  2. We often find public places littered with old cans, empty bottles and especially plastic bags. What effects does littering have on the environment? What do you think we should do to stop people from littering?
  
  参考问题及答案

  2. Thanks. That's very kind of you to say so.
  
  3. a. Oh, Dear!
  
  b. Oh no! How awful!

  III.(略)
  
  口试感受:
  
  一,没有想像的那么难。
  
  二,问题(尤其是谈主观观点的问题)回答的正确与否不是关键,而是老师会很大程度上参考你的应急能力,即使问题不会答,能自然地用流利的语言(英)表达出“不会答”之类的反应也是可以的。像我那次,老师的提问中有一个单词不知道什么意思,就从容地问他词意,在得到他耐心的解释后又继续答题,结果对分数丝毫没有影响。
  
  口语考试的目的肯定不会是只要求你一定会答考试题目,而是真正能灵活运用流利的口语去达到交流的目的。像你们常去英语角的,这哪是问题?!
