詳解托?？谡Z(yǔ)語(yǔ)音語(yǔ)調(diào)的養(yǎng)成技巧
托福考試口語(yǔ)部分，總是可以看到很多網(wǎng)友的錄音，其實(shí)這部分也有參考價(jià)值，特別是對(duì)口語(yǔ)的語(yǔ)音和語(yǔ)調(diào)。一起來(lái)了解一下!
詳解托?？谡Z(yǔ)語(yǔ)音語(yǔ)調(diào)的養(yǎng)成技巧
在新托福口語(yǔ)考試?yán)?，不停的有人建議備考的考試使用模板?？墒羌词固子媚０?，也還是有45秒的聽(tīng)力，也還是要知道自己要說(shuō)什么話題。
如果說(shuō)網(wǎng)友錄音有任何參考價(jià)值，那么肯定大部分是語(yǔ)音語(yǔ)調(diào)方面的參考和啟示，原因很簡(jiǎn)單，練習(xí)和實(shí)考比較，變化最小就是的是語(yǔ)音語(yǔ)調(diào)。
28+流利程度不錯(cuò)，口音絕對(duì)是沒(méi)有問(wèn)題的，很正常的，偶爾有一兩個(gè)音素可能稍欠標(biāo)準(zhǔn)，但是總的來(lái)說(shuō)對(duì)美國(guó)人來(lái)說(shuō)還是相當(dāng)順耳的。
25-27的可能流利度差些，不過(guò)口音仍然是沒(méi)有太大問(wèn)題的。也就是說(shuō)25-30的口語(yǔ)分?jǐn)?shù)總體聽(tīng)來(lái)就是給人在說(shuō)英語(yǔ)的感覺(jué)，中國(guó)味比較淡，基本標(biāo)準(zhǔn)度，強(qiáng)讀弱讀，停頓，節(jié)奏都和native speaker差不太大，說(shuō)的不保守點(diǎn)，就像我們聽(tīng)大山說(shuō)中文那種感覺(jué)。
23-24分的錄音，邏輯都有，體現(xiàn)就是連接詞，但是語(yǔ)音語(yǔ)調(diào)無(wú)一例外的都有些問(wèn)題，聽(tīng)起來(lái)有點(diǎn)費(fèi)勁，或者某些音素的發(fā)音有缺陷，或者中國(guó)口音較濃，甚至能聽(tīng)出是那個(gè)省的戰(zhàn)友。
22-18的邏輯可能就又差些，口音和上個(gè)檔的有同樣的問(wèn)題。22-18的口音不一定就比23-24的差，但是 24-和25+相比的語(yǔ)音語(yǔ)調(diào)絕對(duì)是有明顯差距的。
所以不想明說(shuō)accent會(huì)影響成績(jī)，而說(shuō)accent如果require很大的listener effort就影響成績(jī)了是想顯示他們很公正，絕對(duì)不會(huì)“以音取人”，跟GRE的作文一回事，他們打分是憑整體感覺(jué)。
托福口語(yǔ)：與請(qǐng)假有關(guān)的說(shuō)法
英文里跟請(qǐng)假有關(guān)的說(shuō)法有哪些?
1. Ask for leave
Leave在這里不是“離開(kāi)”，而是“休假”的意思。這個(gè)詞組的用法比較靈活。
你可以說(shuō)：I have to ask for leave tomorrow morning.
我明天上午得請(qǐng)假了。
如果請(qǐng)假不止一天，還可以說(shuō)ask for 2 days' leave 請(qǐng)兩天的假
2. Take off
看到這個(gè)詞組，別告訴小編你只知道它是“起飛”的意思。請(qǐng)假也可以用它哦!
例句：Mr Smith, my dad's here visiting me and I'd like to take two days off to show him around the city.
史密斯先生，我爸爸要來(lái)看我，所以我想請(qǐng)兩天假，帶他到處轉(zhuǎn)轉(zhuǎn)。
3. Call in sick
病得實(shí)在爬不起來(lái)，連打開(kāi)電腦發(fā)郵件的力氣都沒(méi)有?試試這個(gè)吧!“Call in sick”意思是“打電話請(qǐng)假”，
例句：I don't feel well this morning. Perhaps I ought to call in sick.
我今天早上感覺(jué)不太舒服，或許我該打電話請(qǐng)個(gè)假了。
4. Pull a sickie
還有一種請(qǐng)假叫做裝病。Sickie在俚語(yǔ)里指“病假”，但是pull a sickie意思則是“裝病請(qǐng)假”。
例如：He took/pulled/threw a sickie to go to the football game.
他裝病請(qǐng)假看球去了。
托?？谡Z(yǔ)的語(yǔ)音練習(xí)
一.播放音頻，對(duì)著原文，標(biāo)出所有停頓。
Are smarter people drawn / to music, theater and dance? Or does / arts training in childhood / change the brain / in positive ways?
二.重放音頻，標(biāo)出所有重音。
Are smarter people drawn / to music, theater and dance? Or does / arts training in childhood / change the brain / in positive ways?
三.再放音頻，標(biāo)出所有高音和低音。
Are smarter people drawn / to music, theater and dance? Or does / arts training in childhood / change the brain / in positive ways?
四. 第四次放音頻，標(biāo)出較長(zhǎng)、拐彎較多的單詞。
Are smarter people drawn ↘ / to music, theater and dance? Or does / arts training in childhood / change the brain --~ / in positive ways?
五. 盯著做好標(biāo)記的原文，仔細(xì)聽(tīng)音頻，小聲跟讀、模仿。
六.自己朗讀。語(yǔ)調(diào)略微夸張最好，寧過(guò)勿不足。
七.把自己的朗讀錄下來(lái)，與音頻比較，找到差異，從第六步開(kāi)始重復(fù)。直到你自己的聲音和音頻幾乎一模一樣，再進(jìn)行下一個(gè)句子。每天堅(jiān)持幾句話，逐漸延長(zhǎng)至段落和全文。
這種方法很辛苦，但效果奇佳，硬生生克隆出一個(gè)Native Speaker. 不知你能堅(jiān)持多久。
托?？谡Z(yǔ)如何表達(dá)委婉的拒絕
1. “This sounds interesting, but I have too much on my plate at the moment.”
“聽(tīng)起來(lái)很有趣，但是我現(xiàn)在有太多的事情要做?！?/p>
When you start your disagreement with a compliment: “this sounds interesting”, it makes the person less defensive and gives you a validreason to decline “I have too much on my plate at the moment”.
如果你在表達(dá)異議時(shí)用贊美開(kāi)頭：“聽(tīng)起來(lái)很有趣”，會(huì)讓人的心理防御降低，這時(shí)你可以用正當(dāng)理由來(lái)拒絕，如“我現(xiàn)在有太多的事情要做?！?/p>
2. “I’m sorry but last time I did ___, I had a negative experience.”
“不要意思，上次我這樣做時(shí)，我很難受 ?！?/p>
This is a life-saver for me every time I have to explain to people that I do not eat meat. Before I would say that I was a vegetarian, but for some reason this explanation has never worked on hospitable Italian grandmothers. They would try to feed me bacon, sausage and octopuses (yuck!) explaining it with “this is not meat” or “I just put a little in this dish”.
當(dāng)我每次需要向他人解釋我不吃肉時(shí)，這句話是我的救命稻草。在此之前，我通常說(shuō)我是素食主義者，但是不知什么原因，這種解釋對(duì)好客的意大利奶奶們一點(diǎn)兒用也沒(méi)有。她們總是讓我吃培根、香腸和章魚(yú)(真難吃!)，并向我解釋“這不是肉”或“只放了一點(diǎn)點(diǎn)兒?！?/p>
Now I simply say, “I’m sorry, but I can not eat meat. Last time I did, I had a terrible headache.” And it works like a charm, because no one wants to hurt you on purpose.
現(xiàn)在我只是說(shuō)，“不好意思，我不能吃肉。上次我吃肉時(shí)，我頭疼得很厲害?！?這非常管用，因?yàn)闆](méi)人想故意傷害你。
The focus here is not on what you want or do not want to do, but on your previous bad experience.
這里要注意的是，關(guān)鍵不在于你想要什么或不想做什么，關(guān)鍵在于上次你這樣做很難受。
3. “I’d love to do this, but ____”
“我想這么做，但是____”。
This is a great way of saying that you like the idea, you are willing to help, but you just can not do it at the moment.
這是一種很好的方式，說(shuō)你喜歡這樣做，你想去幫忙，但是你現(xiàn)在沒(méi)法做。
Note: Just do not go into a lengthy justification of why you can not do it.
注意：不要進(jìn)一步說(shuō)明你為什么不能做。
First, it is not necessary. Time is a limited resource and when you say “yes” to one task, you have to say “no” to other opportunities that might be more important, urgent and beneficial to you at the moment. Second, offering a lengthy explanation makes you sound guilty and unsure, so people might push further to see if you will agree.
首先，沒(méi)有必要。每個(gè)人的時(shí)間都是有限的，當(dāng)你對(duì)一項(xiàng)任務(wù)說(shuō)“是”的時(shí)候，你就不得不對(duì)另外的一些機(jī)遇說(shuō)“不”，盡管那些機(jī)遇現(xiàn)在對(duì)你來(lái)說(shuō)可能是更加重要、緊急或有益的。另外，進(jìn)一步解釋會(huì)讓你有種負(fù)罪感和不確定感，人們可以進(jìn)一步勸說(shuō)你看你是否會(huì)同意。
4. “I’m not the best person to help on this. Why don’t you try X?”
“我不是這項(xiàng)任務(wù)的最佳人選。要不你們看看X行不行?”
If you feel that you can not contribute much to the task, have no time or lack the resources, do not beat around the bush! Let the person know it up front. This, however, does not mean that you can not be helpful. You can still refer the person to a lead they can follow up on.
如果你覺(jué)得你不能在任務(wù)中投入太多精力，沒(méi)有那么多時(shí)間或缺少資源，那就不要拐彎抹角!讓別人知道。這樣，別人就不會(huì)覺(jué)得你沒(méi)有幫忙。你可以推薦他人供他們參考。
5. “I can’t do this, but I can do ____ (less commitment).”
“我不能這樣做，但是我可以 ___(做出較少的承諾)?！?/p>
This is another variation of the previous method. You are saying “No” to a request, but you are still offering your help on your own terms, choosing the easier, less time-consuming commitment.
這是前面那種方法的變種。你雖然是對(duì)別人的請(qǐng)求說(shuō)“不”，但是你仍然提供幫助，選擇相對(duì)簡(jiǎn)單、需要較少時(shí)間的方式。
6. “You look great, but ___ does not do you justice”
“你看上去很棒，但是___不是很適合你。”
This is a great way to diplomatically express your opinion when someone asks you a question about their appearance, without hurting the other person’s feelings (especially if the person asking you is your friend, your superior or your spouse).
當(dāng)別人問(wèn)你外貌方面的問(wèn)題時(shí)，這是一個(gè)既能表達(dá)出你的想法卻又不傷害別人情感的好方法。(尤其當(dāng)那個(gè)人是你的朋友、上級(jí)或配偶時(shí))。
7. “That sounds great, but I just can’t put one more thing on my calendar for the next few weeks. Let me call you ___ (specific time range).”
“聽(tīng)起來(lái)很不錯(cuò)，但是接下來(lái)的幾周，我的行程已經(jīng)排得滿(mǎn)滿(mǎn)的了。等我在__時(shí)(具體的時(shí)間范圍內(nèi))打電話通知你?！?/p>
Sometimes you might get a proposal, an idea or a request that sounds interesting. But considering the amount of tasks on your to-do list, you do not feel like taking another commitment just yet.
有時(shí)你可能會(huì)得到一個(gè)有趣的提議、想法或請(qǐng)求。但考慮到你任務(wù)清單上的內(nèi)容， 你可能不想做出其他承諾。
In this case, instead of saying a straight out “No”, you are giving yourself time to reflect before making a final decision: “Let me call you ___ (specific time range).”
在這種情況下，與其直接說(shuō)“不”， 不如爭(zhēng)取時(shí)間想想再做決定：“等我在__時(shí)(具體的時(shí)間范圍內(nèi))打電話通知你?！?/p>
However, if you are not interested, do not leave the person hanging on. Use other ways to say “No” that are more definitive (e.g. methods #1,#2 or #3). It is more disappointing when the person is counting on you and you let them down.
然而，要是你不感興趣的話，就不要讓別人等待。使用另外幾種明確說(shuō)“不”的方式。(如方法#1、#2或#3)。如果別人指望你，而你讓他們掃興的話，那樣會(huì)更令人失望的。
