当你在雅思口语考试中反问考官…会发生什么?

当你说出"Could you repeat the question?"时,是不是手心已经紧张得冒汗了?考官面无表情的脸突然让你清醒:这是雅思考场,不是英语角唠嗑啊!


相信很多烤鸭都经历过这种"社会性死亡"瞬间:明明准备了很久,结果因为没听懂问题直接卡住;或者被考官突然打断,脑子瞬间清空,连准备好的素材都人间蒸发。


但重点来了!其实考生请求重复问题不会扣分!今天小曼老师教你三招,听不懂问题时也能优雅救场,把危机变成加分项!


一、巧用“破译密码”三步法


当考官问出这个问题:"Do you think people should take risks to achieve success?"
如果你一下子没听懂,心里嘀咕:"Take risks...是指冒险?还是指投资风险?"

可以这样应对:
1.明确提问重点:"Could you explain 'take risks' in another way? I want to make sure I understand correctly."(小技巧:不要只说"Pardon?",直接说明哪里没听懂)

2.进一步确认范围:如果还是不太明白,可以问:"Are you referring to risks in work or personal life?"

3.掌握对话节奏:用过渡句给自己思考时间:"That’s a good question. Let me share an example..."

二、遭遇“知识盲区”:用学术思维化解尴尬


考官突然问:"What’s your opinion on carbon sequestration technology?"(你对碳封存技术怎么看?


可以这样应对:

1.坦诚认知局限,换个角度回答:"Actually, I’m not an expert on this, but from an eco-friendly standpoint..."(直接承认不太懂,但换个环保视角切入,避免硬编)

2.用日常例子解释专业概念:比如把“碳封存”比作“把二氧化碳锁进地底仓库”,再聊到普通人如何减少碳足迹。

3.适当模糊表达,避免绝对化:"If I had to guess based on what I’ve heard..."

三、被考官打断时的“3步法则”

考生正滔滔不绝讲述旅行经历,考官突然打断:"Thank you. Let’s move to the next topic." 他愣住5秒,后续回答全程结巴。


正确操作:


1.快速收尾信号词:
"So that’s basically why I love hiking!"(即使被打断,仍完成逻辑闭环)


2.衔接过渡句:

"Speaking of which, this reminds me of..."(自然跳转至新话题)


3.万能缓冲句:
"I was just getting to that point! Anyway..."

四、用“三连问”争取思考时间


当遇到抽象问题时(如"Does happiness have a universal definition?"),试试这样说:


1.拆解关键词:
"When you say ‘universal’, do you mean across cultures or historical periods?"


2.建立分析框架:
"From psychological, cultural and personal angles..."


3.引入辩证视角:
"On one hand... However, we can’t ignore..."


雅思口语考官真正考察的,不是百科全书式的知识储备,而是面对未知时的应变力与沟通欲。
