剑桥雅思4-T1 口语答题分析雅思口语评分标准1.Fluency and coherence流利度和连贯度2.Lexical resources词汇的使用3.Grammatical range and accuracy语法及其准确度4.Pronunciation发音从雅思口语的评分标准中,我们不难看出雅思口语要想拿高分真不是一朝一夕能练就的本领。
所以,我们还是从一点一滴的积累中来充分的准备雅思口语考试。
如果你的时间不是很多,你可以按着市面上老师推荐的各种技巧来进行考前冲刺。
但是,如果你时间还是充裕的,还是建议你充分的练就基本功,扎实的基础,认认真真地备考。
那么,我们今天看的是对雅思剑4-T1的口语的分析,希望在一定程度上可以帮到大家。
Part 1,这个部分一般都是用来热身的。
一来,是给学生有一个缓冲的时间,可以缓解下自己的紧张情绪;二来,也是简单了解下考生。
所以,这部分不用太担心,能听懂老师的问题,简单作答即可。
在这个test里面第一部分的主题是friends。
所以,我们在这里作答的时候呢,要考虑我们答案的主体一定是围绕friends的话题来说的。
我们以问题做解释。
Q1 Are your friends mostly your age or different ages? [Why]这个问题需要关注的核心词是:age和reason。
解题思路:1 答案本身的选择是没有对错之分的,所以选择二者其中的哪一个都可以。
2 选择一个立场,给出自己的原因。
相同年龄:没有代沟,兴趣爱好相同,可以一起作伴做很多事情等等;不同年龄:可以学到更多的知识,见识更多更广等等。
3 总结回应主题。
参考答案:Same age 示例Yes, most of my friends are my age. That because we have interests in common, and we have no generation gaps at all. We can do things together like go to museum, goshopping, and visit some scenic spot. We can freely talk about things we both interested in, whilst people who are different ages tend to have different hobbies and interests. Therefore, I would like to make friends who are at my age.Different age 示例No, my friends almost are different ages with me. The reason is I enjoy diversities. People who are at different age have various life experience and different life experience bring ones diverse point of views. I prefer talk with different age friends about value of life, which bring me a lot of fun. That the reason why my friends are almost different ages.Part 2 部分,这个比部分因为留有预备的时间,所以难度较Part 3 还是容易些的。

For example, one graphic illustration to which children might readily relate is the estimate that rainforests are being destroyed at a rate equivalent to one thousand football fields every forty minutes – about the duration of a normal classroom period. In the face of the frequent and often vivid media coverage, it is likely that children will have formed ideas about rainforests – what and where they are, why they are important, what endangers them – independent of any formal tuition. It is also possible that some of these ideas will be mistaken.Many studies have shown that children harbour misconceptions about ‘pure’, curriculum science. These misconceptions do not remain isolated but become incorporated into a multifaceted, but organized, conceptual framework, making it and the component ideas, some of which are erroneous, more robust but also accessible to modification. These ideas may be developed by children absorbing ideas through the popular media. Sometimes this information may be erroneous. It seems schools may not be providing an opportunity for children to re-express their ideas and so have them tested and refined by teachers and their peers.Despite the extensive coverage in the popular media of the destruction of rainforests, little formal information is available about children’s ideas in this area, the aim of the present study is to start to provide such information, to help teachers design their educational strategies to build upon correct ideas and to displace misconceptions and to plan programmes in environmental studies in their schools. The study surveys children’s scientific knowledge and attitudes to rainforests. Secondary school children were asked to complete a questionnaire containing fiveopen-form questions. The most frequent responses to the first question were descriptions which are self-evident from the term ‘rainforest’. Some children described them as damp, wet or hot. The second question concerned the geographical location of rainforests. The commonest responses were continents or countries: Africa (given by 43% of children), south America (30%), Brazil (25%). Some children also gave more general locations, such as being near the Equator.Responses to question three concerned the importance of rainforests. The dominant idea, raised by 64% of the pupils, was that rainforests provide animals with habitats. Fewer students responded that rainforests provide plant habitats, and even fewer (60%) raised the idea of rainforest as animal habitats.Similarly, but at a lower level, more girls (13%) than boys (5%) said that rainforests provided human habitats. These observations are generally consistent with our previous studied of pupils’ views about the use and conservation of rainforests, in which girls were shown to be more sympathetic to animals and expressed views which seem to place an intrinsic value on non-human animal life.The fourth question concerned the causes of the destruction of rainforests. Perhaps encouragingly, more than half of the pupil (59%) identified that it is human activities which are destroying rainforests, some personalising the responsibility by the use of terms such as ‘we are’. About 18% of the pupils referred specifically to logging activiy.One misconception, expressed by some 1)% of the pupils, was that acid rain is responsible for rainforest destruction; a similar proportion said that pollution is destroying rainforests. Here, children are confusing rainforest destruction with damage to the forests of Western Europe by these factors. While two fifths of the students provided the information that the rainforests provide oxygen, in some cases this response also embraced the misconception that rainforest destruction would reduce atmospheric oxygen, making the atmosphere incompatible with human life on Earth.In answer to the final question about the importance of rainforest conservation, themajority of children simply said that we need rainforests to survive. Only a few of the pupils (6%) mentioned that rainforest destruction may contribute to global warming. This is surprising considering the high level of media coverage on this issue. Some children expressed the idea that the conservation of rainforests is not important.The results of this study suggest that certain ideas predominate in the thinking of children about rainforests. Pupils’responses indicate some misconceptions in basic scientific knowledge of rainforests’ ecosystems such as their ideas about rainforests as habitats for animals, plants and humans and the relationship between climatic change and destruction of rainforests.Pupils did not volunteer ideas that suggested that they appreciated the complexity of causes of rainforest destruction. In other words, they gave no indication of an appreciation of either the rage of ways in which rainforests are important or the complex social, economic and political factors which drive the activities which are destroying the rainforests. One encouragements is that the results of similar studies about other environmental issues suggest that older children seem to acquire the ability to appreciate, value and evaluate conflicting views. Environmental education offers an arena in which these sills can be developed, which is essential fore these children as future decision –makers.Question 1-8Do the following statements agree with the information given in reading passage 1? In boxes 1-8 on your answer sheet writeTRUE if the statement agrees with the informationFALSE if the statement contradicts the informationNOT GIVEN if there is no information on this。

剑4雅思Test1-s4听力原文
剑4雅思Test1-s4听力原文IELTS C4-T est1- Section 4Good day, ladies and gentlemen. I have been asked today to talk to you about the urban landscape. There are two major areas that I will focus on in my talk: how vegetation canhave a significant effect on urban climate, and how we can better plan our cities using trees to provide a more comfortable environment for us to live in.Trees can have a significant impact on our cities. They can make a city, as a whole, a bitless windyor a bit more windy, if that's what you want. They can make it a bit cooler if it's a hot summer day in an Australian city, or they can make it a bit more humid if it's a dry inland city. On the local scale - that is, in particular areas within the city - trees can make the local area more shady, cooler, more humid and much less windy. In fact trees and planting of various kinds can be used to make city streets actually less dangerous in particular areas. How do trees do all that, you ask?Well, the main difference between a tree and a building is a tree has got an internal mechanism to keep the temperature regulated. It evaporates water through its leaves and that means that the temperature of the leaves is never very far from our own body temperature. The temperature of a building surface on a hot sunny day can easily be twenty degrees more than our temperature. Trees, on the other hand, remain cooler than buildings because they sweat. This means that they can humidify the air and cool it - a property which can be exploited to improve the local climate. Trees can also help break the force of winds. The reason that high buildings make it windier at ground level isthat, as the wind goes higher and higher, it goes faster and faster. When the wind hits the building, it has to go somewhere. Some of it goes over the top and some goes around the sides of the building, forcing those high level winds down to ground level.That doesn't happen when you have trees. Trees filter the wind and considerably reduce it, preventing those very large strong gusts that you so often find around tall buildings.Another problem in built-up areas is that traffic noise is intensified by tall buildings. By planting a belt of trees at the side of the road, you can make things a little quieter, but much of the vehicle noise still goes through the trees. Trees can also help reduce the amount of noise in the surroundings, although the effect is not as large as people like to think. Low-frequency noise, in particular, just goes through the trees as though they aren't there.Although trees can significantly improve the local climate, they do however take up a lot of space. There are root systems to consider and branches blocking windows and so on. It may therefore be difficult to fit trees into the local landscape. There is not a great deal you can do if you have what we call a street canyon - a whole set of high-rises enclosed in a narrow street. Trees need water to grow. They also need some sunlight to grow and you need room to put them. If you have the chance of knocking buildings down and replacing them, then suddenly you can start looking at different ways to design the streets and to introduce .. .(fade out)。

ielts4t1大作文
ielts4t1大作文英文回答:In my opinion, learning a second language is extremely beneficial for several reasons. Firstly, it allows us to communicate with people from different cultures and backgrounds. For example, I have always been fascinated by Chinese culture and history, and being able to speak Mandarin has allowed me to connect with Chinese people on a deeper level. I can have conversations with them, understand their perspectives, and learn from their experiences.Secondly, learning a second language enhances our cognitive abilities. It has been scientifically proven that bilingual individuals have better problem-solving skills and multitasking abilities. For instance, when I was studying abroad in France, I had to constantly switch between English and French, which improved my ability to think quickly and adapt to different situations.Furthermore, learning a second language opens up more career opportunities. In today's globalized world, companies are looking for employees who can communicate effectively with international clients and partners. For instance, my friend who is fluent in Spanish was able to secure a job in a multinational company that has a strong presence in Latin America. His language skills gave him a competitive edge over other candidates.Additionally, learning a second language can also improve our first language skills. When we learn a new language, we become more aware of the grammar, vocabulary, and pronunciation of our native language. It helps us to express ourselves more accurately and effectively. For example, after learning French, I noticed that my English writing became more precise and my vocabulary expanded.中文回答:在我看来,学习第二语言有着极大的好处。

More importantly, they’ve been role models for my life during all these years of my growing up.3.Q: How much time do you manage to spend with members of your family?A: Actually, I usually manage to spend around 5 hours with them. As I mentioned above, both of my parents work busily for their jobs. I, as a student in college, have toaccomplish a daily school schedule. So, the only time we can manage to spend together is when we all finish our work and go back home.4.Q: What sort of things do you like to do together?A: The things we like to do together could be various. We have dinner together, during whi ch time we talk about one another’s daytime events. Sometimes, we watchtelevision programs after it. We do have a favourite one --- a talk show on Channel 4 every Tuesday evening. We choose to go out for a walk, too, sometimes. We might also participate in activities held in our community centre. They are usually fun and relaxing and offering us opportunities to get to know people living in the same neighbourhood with us.5.Q: Did/Do you get on well with your family?A: I guess I’m able to say so. You see, i n my family, everyone communicates with others on a regular basis to make sure there’re no misunderstandings ever between us. We treat it as a healthy way to let our thoughts and emotions be revealed to others and discuss about them openly. For that reason, I don’t think we have what people call“generation gap” in the family.Part 2You will have to talk about the topic for one or two minutes.You have one minute to think about what you are going to say.You can make some notes to help you if you wish.Model answer:I would like to talk about one of my senior high school teachers. He taught memathematics in my second and third grades. His way of teaching was special compared with that of the other teachers. Instead of lecturing about many tedious and abstract concepts and displaying lots of formulas. During his lecture, he never forgot to show his great sense of humour to add to the activeness of the class. What was most impressive about him anddisadvantages of them and making us select the best presented solution on our own initiative. He opened our mind to new ideas and cultivated us to be capable of analyzing the pros and cons of a resolution in order to make the best decision. This capability to a great extent influenced me in the ways of making judgements in my work as well as in my life.Part 3Developments in education1.Q: How has education changed in your country in the last 10 years?A: As a matter of fact, I did see a big bounce in the development of China’s educationsystem in the last decade. It’s hard to believe that ten years ago education was nobetter than the dull implementation of the old-fashioned teacher-centre approachwhich could hardly succeed in motivating students. The only advantage students gotseemed to be the mere skills gained from painfully repetitive exercises that could help them pass the exams. In opposition to it, the education we have now emphasizes onwhat people call Quality Teaching which aims to cultivate the initiative and creativity of students, helping them know how to learn, not just what to learn. Only in this way can they turn out to be persons with the capability of independent thinking. This is beyond doubt a big and bold step in the reform of teaching methodology in the education in my country.2.Q: What changes do you foresee in the next 50 years?A: In the 50 years that follow, I’m confident we can see quite a few changes taking place in this area. The most significant transformation in education would be a switch frombeing examination-oriented to being capability-oriented, thanks once again to thecontinuing implementation of Quality Teaching. The next possible change will occur inthe teaching approach concerning the growing utilization of computers. Teaching willlikely be conducted via the Internet to make remote education more applicable. Lastly, I predict a big possibility of bilingual teaching in the future. As is a trend to use English as an international language, schools shall be required to employ it as a second teachinglanguage.A national education system3.Q: How do the expectations of today’s school leavers compare with those of theprevious generation?A: Compared with the former generation, present-day school graduates absolutely hold higher expectations for their future. They are no longer satisfied with a Bachelor’sdegree which was clearly still a dream to pursue for many of the previous generation.School leavers now hope to acquire further education opportunities both home andabroad which in return could turn them into Masters and even Doctors. The desire to be equipped with more knowledge and skills comes from the pressure exerted by theincreasing career competition and the improvement of people’s average academic level.4.Q: What role do you think extracurricular activities play in education?A: Extracurricular activities undoubtedly have their advantages for students in theirstudy. They help balance students’ life and study, offering them a way to release theirstress or any negative feeling in a healthy way. Besides, some activities with physicalexercise involved could also enable them to better maintain their health, guaranteeingthe successful fulfillment of their intense academic schedule.Different styles / methods of teaching and learning5.Q: What method of learning works best for you?A: Well, umm… It’s really hard to say …, nevertheless, I do find the method of learningfrom practice works a great deal for me. Knowledge and information from textbooks are systematic and comprehensive, yet are usually unable to make me have a lastingmemory and a thorough appliance of them. Learning from practice, I will be able toexperience the whole process by myself. Practice of independent thinking, analyzingcauses, comparing results and concluding from the facts will all be included in it. Withexperience gained, I will have my own insight of the knowledge, hence a deep memoryof it.6.Q: How beneficial do you think it is to group students according to their level of ability?A: The way I see it is that it brings benefits to students to some extent in certaincircumstances. Some schools classify their students based on their different learningabilities for special purposes such as selecting candidates for the preparation of someacademic competition. It’s quite understandable to do that. On the othe r hand, somedivided their students into different groups simply with the goal to achieve a higheracademic score through the specialized training of those “more intelligent ones”. Thisact may occur to the school as a thoughtful way to promote its teaching quality, but itwill unquestionably affect students who are grouped as “less intelligent ones”,undermining their will and zeal to learn.。
