水平考試(二)口試模擬試題(1)
I.Prepare yourself to read the following dialogue and answer some questions about it. .
Interviewer: Do you think the public schools are a good thing or a bad thing, Mr. Martin?
Mr. Martin, I think it's a very much a bad thing. You see, I totally disagree with the idea that anyone should be about to buy their children a better education than another. The thing is the public schools help to keep the idea of a ruling elite alive and work against social change. I think I would like to see all private schools absorbed into the state education system and every child allowed the chance of the same education. There is a very strong argument that the pressure of those parents whose children at present go to public schools would soon bring about a great improvement in the state system.
Interviewer: Mrs. Jones, do you agree with Mr. Martin?
Mrs. Jones: No, I don't. I think public schools are a good thing. You see, if we could afford it , my husband and I would send our sons to a public school when they reach secondary school age. I think public schools finish them off, burn them into gentlemen, and give them a good start in life. The good thing about public schools is that those who go to a public school can mix with other children who come from good backgrounds. The only thing I can think of against them is that only very few public schools are co-educational. It’s a shame, isn't it? I mean, mixing with both sexes from a very early age is a good thing, particularly when boys don’t have a sister.
Ⅱ。Three situations are given below. You will be required to respond to them in the examination.
1. You are talking to one of your friends about diet. He or she suggests that people should eat less, but you don't agree. What do you say?
2. Your employer thinks you've done an excellent job on a difficult assignment. How would you respond to his or her compliment?
3. You are watching an interesting TV program, but all of a sudden, there is a power failure. What do you say?
Ⅲ。Go over the following topics carefully and be prepared to speak for about 3 minutes on either of the. You may make notes on a piece of paper and refer to them during your talk, but you mush not write out the complete talk and simply read it aloud.
1. Nowadays wherever we travel in Beijing, we find foreign restaurants which offer Japanese food , American food or other foreign food. What are your views on foreign food? What kind of foreign food do you like or dislike?
2. We often find public places littered with old cans, empty bottles and especially plastic bags. What effects does littering have on the environment? What do you think we should do to stop people from littering?

口試感受:
一,沒有想像的那么難。
二,問題(尤其是談主觀觀點(diǎn)的問題)回答的正確與否不是關(guān)鍵,而是老師會(huì)很大程度上參考你的應(yīng)急能力,即使問題不會(huì)答,能自然地用流利的語言(英)表達(dá)出“不會(huì)答”之類的反應(yīng)也是可以的。像我那次,老師的提問中有一個(gè)單詞不知道什么意思,就從容地問他詞意,在得到他耐心的解釋后又繼續(xù)答題,結(jié)果對(duì)分?jǐn)?shù)絲毫沒有影響。
口語考試的目的肯定不會(huì)是只要求你一定會(huì)答考試題目,而是真正能靈活運(yùn)用流利的口語去達(dá)到交流的目的。像你們常去英語角的,這哪是問題?!
