Part twoInterviewer: Ok, I am going to give you a topic. You can prepare for one or two minutes.I have many teachers in my years of education, and there is only one teacher who will remain in my memory forever. His name is Tom, and he taught me spoken English in a language school last year. He’s not tall but he’s energetic. He comes from America. He’s humorous but in class he was strict with us. We were not allowed to speak Chinese and had to take a quiz every day. If you failed, you had to stay in the classroom studying until you could talk to him in English fluently. One day, I left my textbook in the classroom, and when I returned, it was already 9 o’clock in the evening. Much to my surprise, Tom was still there helping some of my classmates improving their pronunciation. And his voice was low and husky, I was quite sure he didn’t have dinner. He made a strong impression on me because of his responsibility. I will remember him forever.Part threeInterviewer: What do you think education should be?Candidate: I guess education should focus on the development of ability of students. The capability of students should be explored.Interviewer: Are there any problems in education?Candidate: Well, I think education in China has got some problems. Traditional education makes students bored. Teachers only teach them to remember the figures in the books, and we can’t encourage students to be creative.Interviewer: How do you think the government can solve the problem?Candidate: Governments should bring some reforms to examination system, co-operate with foreign universities, encourage students to study aboard, and teachers should be sent to other countries to receive some training.Interviewer: What impressed you most when you were at university?Candidate: There were both happiness and bitterness in my memory. I think the academic ability and responsibility of my teachers made me impressed.Interviewer: What’s the difference between today’s education and that of twenty years ago?Candidate: In the past, many children couldn’t go to school, and educational conditions were terrible. But now, government offers compulsory education. Each child is endowed with the right go to school. Interviewer: Do schools teach non-academic courses?Candidate: No, we rarely have non-academic courses. The subjects are all relevant to our entrance exam to university.Interviewer: Do you think that schools should be responsible for teaching these non-academic courses? Candidate: Y es. It’s necessary. Students should have courses like survival skills, communication and skill training so that they can face the tough society fully prepared.专业专业Major这个专业是未来要学习的，注意时态的使用。

Topic︱Idea---details︱Idea---details︱Ending五,上课期间老师放了一位俄罗斯学生的口语答案,主题是最喜欢去的国家这位学生主要从以下几方面来回答了这个问题: 最喜欢去的是法国1,有法国朋友２去了几次（具体细节）３学法语（１２岁开始学）４从南方到北方５喜欢的法餐cheese wine整个过程中有了一两处语法错误,语音也不是十分的标准,但是逻辑非常缜密,内容非常详细,在说的过程中说去了3times比说去了several times好得多. Tips:1,对于口语部分的所有题目,考生有45—60分钟时间来作答,在备考过程中要注意做相应的计时练习.对于滔滔不绝的同学来说,不要担心说不完,真正的考试中很多考生是说不完的,这不会影响成绩.但对于有些没话说的考生,可以适当加长自己的句子,尽量把时间全部用完.2,列出自己所熟悉的话题,并根据他们进行练习,不妨从描绘一个熟悉的地方或是一段个人经历开始.3,在描述过程中不要列举过多的内容,因为这样会减少有限制的作答时间,使得之后的回答显得草率,匆忙而无法扩展.4,提出观点，建立细节，用时间，数字，具体物名来说明.5,将自己的声音录下来,检查自己的发音是否清晰以及表达是否流畅.然后请一位英语教师用IBT的口语评分标准进行评分.一些口语论坛上有.Words: hooded jacket 带帽风衣Hold your horse 稍等一下Parade 游行阅兵炫耀7th Speaking口语部分的笔记也不是很多,因为课上主要以讲义为主,而讲义又以代表性的例题为主.而且课程中以纠正发音的时间占了不少,自认为口音不准的同学可以去听听课, 自己认为口音很好的同学听听课也不妨, 因为以前以为自己口音还不错,但是还是发现有读的不准确的单词,但是我觉得口音这东西想要跟老美一样是不可能的,而且ETS的评分标准中也强调了口音不是最重要的标准,大家说的只要不让评分人员产生误解就好了.口语这边大多在讲义上讲所以我就直接写TIPS啦TIPS:1,口语考试全靠平时练,和作文一样,别指望临时抱佛脚,没用的.2,口语老师也反复强调听写是提高听力的唯一途径,而且听力是IBT中的重中之重,口语中的3,4,5,6题也需要听力能力,所以听写吧.我的想法跟口语老师一样,每天保证质量的练习听力一小时足够,也就是3个段子左右.听力老师小马说要每天两—五小时,我觉得太夸张了,根本没必要.这东西不是说成就能成的.3,关于听写的材料. 如果想短期内只是应付考试的话推荐2000年---2005年的TOEFL真题,并且听写完了自己总结main idea.听写主要分为1,小词阶段(两个星期左右) 2,单句阶段(2,3个星期左右) 3,完整阶段4,对于口语1,2题在考前10分钟的break的时候可以直接把模板写下来.第三题目的对话中有细节,应该认真听.5,口语中第1,2题最简单,第4题最难,第3,6题居中.6,口语训练的三个阶段:准确缓慢---熟练---高声迅速2.15speaking：口语课上主要做练习，讲了5，6题的模版（讲义上有）。

雅思强化口语精讲班第10讲讲义A person in history历史人物A person in history谈论这个卡片的时候要注意中外文化的差距。
很多外国人不了解中国的历史人物，所以在谈论的时候要特别注意表述方式。
不要准备特别有名的历史人物。
可以谈论张衡，西施，王昭君等有趣的人物。
Part twoDescribe a person in history in your country.Who this person wasWhat he/she didHow he/she influenced Chinese history.I’d like to talk about the first female emperor in Chinese history. She was Wu Zetian. She was born of a royal family during the Tang Dynasty. She entered Emperor Taizong's harem when she was 13 and that of the successive emperor Gaozong after. She was a master of manipulation and she persuaded the emperor to declare her one rank below the empress consort. Eventually, the Emperor married Wu. When Gaozong suffered a stroke five years later, Wu governed behind the scenes. She created a secret police force to spy on her opposition, jailing or killing those who stood in her way. After Gaozong’s death she reigned through puppet emperors, her sons Zhongzong and Ruizong. She finally proclaimed herself Emperor, the first woman to do so. She died shortly after. Despite her ruthless climb to power, her rule was benign. Wu reduced the size of the standing army, and replaced aristocrats in the government with scholars. She was fair to the peasantry, lowering taxes, raising agricultural production, and strengthening public works. Wu also campaigned to elevate the status of women and had scholars write biographies of famous women. She was considered to be the first one in Chinese history to try to improve the social status of women.Part threeIs it important to learn history?Absolutely. History is essential to us as we will learn some lessons from the events in the past and avoid making the same mistakes again in the future.Do you think children should learn the history of their own country or that of other countries?I guess children should learn both national and international history. Once they have learned the history of their country, they are going to be proud of the long tradition.What’s the importance of knowing the family history?I really don’t know much about my family history. I just heard from my grandfather that his grandfather came from another province, and they moved to the present place about a hundred years ago.Where did you get information about your family history?Most of time, I heard the stories from my grandparents. They told me about their past events.What do you think about forgetting history?I think it’s unforgivable. Everyone should remember their history. It is the root of a nation. Without it, people have got no roots.What do you think of recording history with computer photos and other things?Well, it’s a good way as well, but the only problem is that photos are going to be lost if there issomething wrong with the computer system. Printed photos are better choices.A leader you admire你所崇拜的领导人A leader you admire在谈论这张卡片的时候一定要注意。
