引導語：基於雅思口語練習方法，由應屆畢業生培訓網整理而成，謝謝您的閱讀。
一、Do it first in your own language
先用母語說
This is perhaps an unusual piece of advice. In the speaking, you should aim to be thinking and speaking in English as much as possible and not translating from your language to English. It can, however, sometimes help to practise the long turn part 2 in your own language first:
一般來說，最好是能用英語思維思考，並用英語回答。但是像Part2這種比較長的題目， 先用母語說可能會好一點。
some people struggle to speak in their own language for 2 minutes: they prefer short/concise answers and not longer more discussion type answers. So before you try it in English, make sure you can do it in your first language.
有的人就算用自己的語言說，也會很困難，他們會說一些短句子，而不是討論型的長句子，所以，在你用英語表達之前，先讓你自己用母語能夠說清楚。
It helps you understand how long 2 minutes is and how much you need to say to fill that time.
這會幫你瞭解2分鐘有多長，能說多少東西
if you record and listen to yourself in your first language, you will probably find yourself using quite a lot of “structure” language such as “As I mentioned before”. This is a lot of the language you need for part 2.
如果用母語錄音然後聽，你可能會發現自己用了很多結構性語句，比如“像我之前說到的”，這就是在第二部分你需要用到的!
二、Record yourself and then write down your answer
自己錄音再寫下答案
This is something everyone should try. It is almost certainly a bad idea to write your answer first and then speak it. This is because we speak and write in very different ways and it is a mistake to try and train yourself to speak in the way you write. But you can learn a lot from recording what you say and then writing that down word for word.
這個方法每個人都要試一下!先寫答案再說出來絕對不是個好方法!因為說話和寫作是不一樣的，用寫作的方式來訓練口語是行不通滴~但是你可以通過錄下自己的答案，再一字一句地聽著寫下來，這樣會進步很多~
Things you can learn are:
這樣你可以瞭解到：
Do you say enough? Do you give very short answers? In parts 1 and 3, you should say at least a couple of sentences in answer to every question.
你說的足夠多了嗎?答案會不會太短?在Part1和Part3，回答每個問題至少要說幾個句子。
Is what you say organised? Can you see a structure to your answer? Is it possible to put in sentences and paragraph breaks? Do you have some organisation language like “The first point is..”
你是如何組織的?答案中看得出結構嗎?能把句子和段落放到這個結構中嗎?有沒有結構性的語言?
Do you speak too slowly or too quickly? Try counting the words in your part 2 answer. Most of my answers as a native speaker are about 240 words long. You should probably aim for around 200 or so. Less than that and you are speaking too slowly, but if you have more than that, it may be that you are speaking too quickly.
有沒有說得過快或過慢?試著數一下Part2 你的答案的字數，一般native speaker能說到240字左右，烤鴨們一般要寫到200字左右。如果字數少於這個值，那說明你講話太慢，如果超過了，說明你講話太快~~
How long are your pauses? You can pause, but your pauses should generally come between sentences/paragraphs and they shouldn’t be more than 2/3 of seconds
你停頓多久?一般應該在句子和段落間停頓，而且不超過2-3秒。
Did you answer the question?
你回答清楚問題了嗎?
Is your pronunciation okay? If you can’t immediately understand what you say, the examiner won’t either!
你的'語音可以嗎?如果你不能聽懂自己在說什麼，那考官也不會聽懂。
Are there some words you repeat a lot? You probably shouldn’t worry too much about content words such as “television” – native speakers will repeat those a lot when speaking. Rather you should look at more functional words/phrases such as “I think”. It’s very easy to repeat these a lot and it is also quite simple to train yourself to use more variety.
有沒有重複很多詞?不要擔心重複實義詞，即使是native speaker也會一直重複，因為你講的就是這個東西~不過，你應該重點檢查功能詞彙，比如“I think” ，烤鴨們很容易老重複這些詞，不過讓自己練習用不同的詞也不是難事。
三、Don’t practise the whole part 2, do it bit by bit
不要一口吃成胖子，練習第二部分，慢慢來
Some people find part 2 frightening because they are worried they can’t speak for 2 minutes. Relax. You don’t have to. It’s much easier than that, you need to speak for不要擔心2分鐘很長，其實你要說的不過是：20秒+20秒+20秒+1分鐘!
20 seconds
20 seconds
