II.口语考试试卷结构：试卷合计12题，总分10分，用时20分钟。题号题型题量分值答题时间

PartOne朗读句子2120minsPartTwo朗读短文11PartThree情景提问22PartFour看图说话11.5PartFive快速应答42PartSix听短文回答问题22.5III.口语分类练习：一、短文朗读： 开考以后屏幕上出现了朗读句子或文章，此时考生不要急于先读出声音来，而是应该充分利用所给的一分钟准备时间，大致地默读文章，理解文章的主旨，领悟其语意。在朗读的过程中要注意三点： 1)声音不要过大或过小，尽量用最完美的语音和语调来读； 2)掌握好节奏，不乱停顿，不读破句，语句连贯、自然、流畅； 3)注意各类词形变化的发音，如名词复数、动词形式、过去分词的词尾变化等。二、情景提问： 既然是要求根据“情景”自己设计问题，那么考生就得先弄清楚“情景”中必不可少的规定要素，如时间、地点、人物、事件、原因等。1)情景提问答题技巧 这部分试题主要对给定的情景进行提问(用特殊疑问句)这部分应试关键在于划分给 定句子成份，针对不同成份预先设计问题，实考中将中心词摸去即可。2)情景提问需要注意：(1)读清楚题目，明确提问的具体信息点是什么。(2)两个问题中，至少有一个是特殊疑问句。如果考生两个问题都用的是一般疑问句或都是特殊疑问句，那就只能给一半的分数。 (3)两个问题必须针对两个不同的信息点，不能对同一信息点反复提问。如果考生所提的两 个问题的答案是一致的，如：“Howmuchisthecoat?”和“Whatisthepriceofthecoat?”即为同一个答案的两个问题，这样也同样只能给一半的分数。【例题解析】例句：ShanghaiDisneylandhasbeenbuiltrecentlyinShanghai.Asktwoquestionsaboutit,atleastonespecialquestion.

【分析】可从拆解句子信息点和句子成分的解读进行提问。

原句：ShanghaiDisneylandhasbeenbuiltrecentlyinShanghai.

主语：ShanghaiDisneyland 时间状语：recently 地点状语：inShanghai【思路1】针对不同句子成份的提问： 对主语提问：WhathasbeenbuiltrecentlyinShanghai? 对时间状语提问：WhenwasShanghaiDisneylandbuiltinShanghai? 对地点状语提问：WherehasShanghaiDisneylandbeenbuilt?

【思路2】针对句子不同信息点内容提问： 占地面积，因此提问：HowmanyacresisDisneyland?

售票价格，因此提问：What’sthepriceoftheticket?

附近酒店，因此提问：Arethereanytouristhotelsnearby?

游玩项目，因此提问：Couldyouremendsomeinterestinggameplay?

总结，只要将句子任一组成部分深入展开，寻找细节，则解题方法有很多。

三、看图说话： 对一组图片的内容用120到150字左右的篇幅进行描述，因此考生应当至少说上七句话。答好这道题应注意的细节:

1)要在规定的时间内看清图片; 2)二是在叙述中一定要依据图片本身的内容来描述; 3)要注意故事发生和发展的连贯性; 4)要注意时态的统一。另外，图片上已写有开头的第一句话，考生切莫忘记应以此句话作开头。有些考生会对前几幅图作详尽描述，以致没时间完成后面图片的叙述，或者卡在了某一幅图上某一个事物的单词上而绞尽脑汁，这往往会顾此失彼，得不偿失。课堂精练第一套：PartOne:Readaloudthefollowingpassage.Youwillhaveoneminutetoprepareandthirtysecondstoread.

1)代词

英语表达中的代词出现的频率极高，代词的作用是指代前面提及的名词，巧妙利用这样的指代关系和根据代词的单复数差异可以准确而快速地解题。例1：...The

new

design

was

well

received

by

the

reception

staff

of

the

hotel._______A.Theyallbelievethatitsintroductionhasledtoamodern,moreprofessionalcorporateimageandgreaterconfidenceamongthem.B.Withtherecentreconstruction,itisbelievedthatthehotelwillheightenitsreputationandproducebettereconomicandsocialbenefit.2)

同义词/近义词

英语前言后语之间往往有同义词、近义词、近义表达语甚至相同词汇的重复使用，这是我们解题的一个很好的判断线索。其实就其本质而言，上文讲的代词和下文将涉及的上下义词和同一范畴词都是特殊的同义/近义词。例2：LauraAshleymadeafortunebylookingbacktopastcenturies,searchingforolddesignstodecorateavarietyofclothesandhouseholdfurnishings._______.A.ThesetraditionalproductscreatedahugewaveofdemandfromtheStatesandelsewhere.B.Allthatchangedwhenshebecameinterestedinprintingfabrics.

3)

上下义词/同一范畴词 什么是上下义词和同一范畴词？举个例子你们就明白了。fruit和apple之间就是上下义词，因为前者包含了后者，或可以说后者是前者的一个子集。apple和orange之间则是同一范畴的关系，都属于fruit。利用前后句中这样的特殊的同义关系常常可以很轻松地解题。例3：ArecentlystudybyAmericanmanagementinstituteshowsthattheprocessingofdocumentstakesup60%ofofficeworks’time,40%oflaborcostsandupto10%ofbusinessine.________.A.Thesefiguresarehardlysurprisingsincedocumentsconveyninetenthsofallinformation.B.These

new

methods

of

handling

paperwork

have

already

greatly

improved

efficiency.

4)数字线索

包括具体数字以及和数字相关的词汇诸如numbers,

rate等等。作者列出数字，除了和其他数字进行对比和比较之外，还可以用数据来说明一个观点。例题：Researchersanalyzedthecontentsof28strawberryflavoredproductssoldinstores.________Ofthe11productsthatdidcontainstrawberries,fiveofthemcontainedlessthanonepercentrealfruit.Inaddition,eachjuiceboxcontainednearlyeightteaspoonsofsugar.A.Actuallytheproductcontainsjustatinypercentageofstrawberryorevennofruitatall.B.Theyfoundthatabout60percentofthemdidn'tcontainanyfruitatall.2.逻辑衔接根据前后句之间的逻辑关系又细分为：解释关系、例证关系、因果关系、顺逆关系。

1)解释关系 前后句之间含有解释的逻辑关系，这样的逻辑关系是很隐蔽的。例4：_______that’swhyIdon’twearawhitecoat.Ifindthat’soneofthethingsthatpeopleassociatewithpain.Infact,myphilosophyisthatdentaltreatmentshouldtakeplaceinanatmosphereofrelaxation,interestand,aboveall,enjoyment.A.Fiveyearsago,JeromewenttotheUnitedStatestodoresearch.B.Hehastriedtocreateanenvironmentwherepeoplearenotafraid.C.Therelaxationtechniquesareimportantbutthequalityofthetreatmentisthemostimportantthing.D.WewerethefirstpracticeinBritaintointroducethem.2)例证关系

前后句的某句是为了证明另一句而举的例子。例证的形式多样，但就其本质而言无非是思维上的形象(例子、类比等)和抽象(观点)的辩证关系，用到的思维过程无非就是基本的归纳(从例子到观点)和推理(从观点到例子)。例5：Manager

should

provide

regular

feedback

to

their

staff._______.

Ifthisisnotdone,employeeswillthinktheireffortsarenotappreciated.A.Ifthesearepoor,employeeswillfeelleftout.B.Thiscaneasilyhappen,sinceitisnotalwayspossibletointroduceproductivitymeasurementsintoevery,employee'swork.C.Inparticular,employersarerecognizingthattheserequirementswillchangeastimegoesby.D.Forexample,whengoodworkhasbeendoneitmustbepraised.3)

因果关系

前后句的逻辑是因果关系，常见的逻辑表达有：because,

for,

since,

as,

the

reason

is

that，result

in/

from,

be

due

to,

be

attributed

to

等等。还有一些表示因果逻辑关系的表达是比较隐蔽的，如：underlie(前者构成后者的基础，实际是前者是因，后者是果)，再如：in

response

to(前者作为后者的回应，即后者是因，前者是果)。希望考生在平日英语学习中多作总结，这对高考的各个部分的解题都有好处。例6：Thereisnodoubtthat,inanincreasinglypetitivetradingenvironment,wearebetterequippedthanevertopeteandtowinandwefeelincreasinglyoptimistic._______.Theboardbelievesthatthegroup’sdevelopmentisbeingmanagedinaprudentmannerandatanappropriatespeedtoproducesustainableprofitgrowth.A.Thesehavevastlyimprovedouroperationsintheareasofrangeplanning,financialcontrolandmerchandisemanagement.B.Thisisduetoournowhavingaclearstrategywithafocusonthecustomer,productimprovement.C.In

confident

that

to

the

clothing.4)顺逆关系

英语行文中后句对前句不是顺承逻辑关系就是逆转逻辑关系，这是显然的常识。如果空格前后两句话之间是逻辑上的逆转，则空格处很有可能是个转折逻辑的句子。例7：KnownasGlasgow’smostfashionabledentist,_______.Forexample,heusesaspecialinstrumentwhichsprayswarmwaterontheteethtocleanthem,ratherthanscrapingthem.A.
