备考雅思口语的过程中,很多同学都想要练习英音。其实雅思口语对于口音并没有要求,大家可以根据自己的喜好进行选择。下面小编就和大家分享练雅思口语这些英音发音特点要了解,欢迎阅读!

练雅思口语这些英音发音特点要了解

一. 备考雅思口语练英音有没有优势

在进入英音练习的正题之前,我们先来讲一下雅思口语练习英音是否有优势。其实,从雅思口语的评分标准上来,雅思口语练美音和英音都是可以接受的,并没有规定大家必须练习英音。那么,英音练习如何才能发挥出优势?小站君认为,如果大家能将英音练得非常地道,一开口就让人感觉像是native speaker,这样才能发挥出优势。不过如能将美音练得很地道,也是同理。

二. 英音有哪些发音特点

其实英音也有很多不同的腔调,就像我们国内的方言一样,我们通常所说的英音是英国的标准语音,就相当于中文里的普通话。那么,标准的英音都有哪些发音特点呢?

1. 没有r音

这个可以说是人尽皆知的英音特点,也是很多人在听到英语判别英美音的一个依据。给大家举几个常见的例子。比如这几个单词“water”“letter”“better”,美式发音都会将后面的r音带上,但是英式发音中全部都是“ə”音。

2. 梅花音[æ]

这也是英音发音中不得不说的一个发音特点,这个音标在英音和美音中发音完全不同,美音发音更像汉语拼音里的“ai”,而英音发音则像是汉语拼音的“a”,比如,bad、mad、sad等等,这些单词的读音英美音差别比较明显。

3. 其他发音规则

除了上面两类常见的之外,还有一些其他不明显的特点,需要大家在平时练习中多体会,比如字母u在l、d、n、t以后会音调会发成/tju:/,另外,英式发音比较含蓄,嘴巴张开程度要小于美音等等。

三. 如何练习

接下来,我们来说说如何练好英式发音。雅思口语练习中,比较通用的方法就是模仿和跟读,其实练习英音也是如此,只是在练习之前大家要先学音标,然后再开始模仿练习。

1. 音标

英语中英式和美式发音不同,也都有各自的音标。小站君建议大家在练习英音之前先学习一下英式发音音标表,然后再见到英式音标的时候才知道如何正确发音。

2. 练习

学习了最为基本的音标以后,就可以进入模仿阶段了。在模仿发音阶段,小站君不建议大家用音频来练习,因为音频练习有一个很大缺陷——看不到口型。其实在发音练习中模仿发音口型也是非常重要的一步,建议大家看英剧或者一些名人演讲来模仿英式发音。另外,模仿发音的时候不要模仿多人口音,找某一个发音标准的人进行模仿即可。

雅思口语备考中大家可以根据自己喜好选择相应的口音进行练习。如果大家对英音感兴趣想要练习英式发音,先要了解英式发音的一些特点,熟悉英式音标,然后再跟着英剧或者演讲来模仿发音。

2020年9-12月雅思口语part2&3答案解析:让你钦佩的家人

Describe a person in your family that you admire.

You should say:

Who this person is

What he or she does

What he or she is like

And explain why you admire him or her

Someone I really admire is my little sister. She’s about 10 years old - 5 years younger than me, and she’s really smart for her age. She’s really talkative, very astute and insightful and she’s really interested in all sorts of things and curious about life. She goes to school like all children of her age, and she’s good at her studies but much more creative than most pupils. She’s not particularly interested in sports. She’s more of a creative person. She enjoys watching quite a lot of adult films – you know, movies that are actually way beyond most children of her age – so she has a deeper understanding of people and human nature than most girls of her age. She’s also very kind and understanding. I think I admire her because I like people who can think and understand other people’s feelings. Some children can be really selfish and spoilt, and she’s certainly not that type of person at all. I recall one occasion when my dog died, she was really comforting and although she was upset herself, she knew I was the closest one in the family to the dog, and she showed a lot of empathy and sympathy about the fact that I was really upset, and even made me a card and a small gift to try to comfort me. She’s considerate like this. I really admire her.

Part 3

1. Should husbands and wives have different roles within the family? Why (not)?

Well, I am not sure really. I think today things have changed a bit compared to the past and there is certainly a greater equality between the genders. I think that nowadays, especially in situations when both husband and wife are working, the roles are more interchangeable than in the old days when the man was out at work and the woman was looking after the home. I think the roles within the family should be decided by the individual circumstances as well as the personalities and strengths and weaknesses of each person in the couple.

2. What conflicts can arise between a person's family and a person's friends?

That’s a curious question… well, people sometimes clash because of a difference in personality or a difference in values and priorities. Sometimes people’s friends give different advice than family. I mean, as an example, if you have a fairly traditional and older family, they are inevitably going to have different views on relationships, marriage, work, responsibilities, money and so on, compared to younger friends.

3. What responsibilities do parents have towards their children?

Parents have both practical and emotional responsibilities to their children. Obviously, they have to look after them and cater for their basic needs, but also they must give them love, care, and bring them up to have positive values and behave in a respectable and polite way in society as well.

2020年9-12月雅思口语part2&3答案解析:国家的传统

Describe a tradition of a festival in your country.

You should say:

What it is

Who take part in this tradition

What people do with this tradition

And explain how you feel about this tradition

I’d like to talk about an interesting tradition in the Tibet region of my country. There is a festival called the Butter Lamp Festival, quite unique to that area. It comes at the end of the New Year Festival, and is in celebration of a kind of Buddhist prayer day – I forget the name. Basically, Lamas at the temples, and people in their homes, in fact, make lamps out of a special kind of butter, with a wick in them, like a candle, and light them. What’s special about these lamps is that they are often crafted or sculpted into different animal shapes – into the forms of birds, and sacred animals and things like this. Then the lamps are all lit at a certain time and the lights turned off. This is particularly spectacular in some of the older temples, as you can see all this wonderful flickering candle-light casting shadows across the Buddhist architecture and paintings on the walls. It’s really a special and mysterious kind of occasion. Also, if you visit one of the old temples at this time you hear the monks chanting sacred songs and playing cymbals or drums. So, there are some musical performances that surround the events too. I have only been to that region once, and I was lucky enough to visit a few temples during this part of the New Year Festival season, so I saw it first-hand and really enjoyed it. I like ancient traditions and customs that have a history and I would like to go to more regions of China, where the different ethnic groups have different and quite unique festival traditions. I feel that all traditions have some value, not just to the people who practice them, but for visitors – it’s a great way to get a feel of another culture and learn a bit about how other groups of people in the world celebrate their special occasions.

Part3

1. What’s the most important tradition in your country?

I don’t really know, it’s hard to say. There are quite a few traditions in my country, though most mainstream ones I find quite boring to be honest. It seems that over the past generation or so they’ve lost their flavor and aren’t really that exciting. Anyway, I think one of the most important traditions in my country is something quite simple, but meaningful: it’s the tradition of serving people jiao zi, or dumplings, before they go on a long journey, like a plane or train journey to another province or country. At least in my extended family we always follow this tradition and many of my friends do too. Basically, before you set out on your trip you eat lots of dumplings – that’s it! I am not sure why this tradition is a tradition, but it is! It’s meant to be good luck and give you a safe journey. As well, as, of course, filling your stomach so you’re not hungry!

2. Why should children learn about traditions?

It’s quite important that children learn about traditions because that’s one thing that keeps traditions alive for generations to come. That’s what I was alluding to earlier really – the fact that so many traditions are getting diluted these days, as they lose their meaning as they get passed from generation to generation. Young people often have little interest in our own ancient traditions, and as they get older this lack of interest starts to mean that traditions become less meaningful. This is quite a shame. So, I think if children learn about traditions then it’s a good way to keep those traditions alive for the future.

3. Are there any traditions that have already disappeared in your country?

I’m not really sure I know any that have disappeared really, but I am sure there are many. One thing I will say is that traditionally, in history, there were lots of interesting street parades, firework displays and outdoor activities during spring festival. Whereas in the past 30 or so years, people don’t really do much of this – they simply sit and watch a very long gala entertainment show on TV, and that’s about it. Fireworks have now been banned, because they are noisy and pollute the air. Street parades don’t really exist anymore, because basically such gatherings along the roads are not encouraged, and so we are left with a dinner with family and that gala TV show. In a way I think that’s a shame. So, I think some traditions have disappeared, or at least they have got watered down and are not as exciting or meaningful as they used to be.

4. People in China are enthusiastic about Western festivals like Halloween and Christmas. Do you think Western festivals have already replaced traditional festivals or people just celebrate them together?

This is a curious question and there are a few different ways of looking at this. As China has strove to modernize, the country has actually embraced a lot of western ideas from fashions to music, to coffee shops and things like that, and perhaps become excited about these things because everyone likes “new things” – and therefore younger generations have veered away from any real interest in their own traditions. This is what tends to happen – it’s part of human nature. But at the same time, our own festivals have got a bit boring, and so young people have perhaps found that Christmas and Halloween are more fun and exciting, and so they have started to embrace those. It’s a bit of a paradox, really, because at the same time as being proud of our own culture, we have actually shown little real interest in it, and even got bored of all those old-fashioned things and therefore embraced a lot of foreign ideas. You know, this is a natural part of history, and I’ve seen a lot of changes recently, too, and younger generations are starting to show more genuine interest in ancient Chinese traditions and habits and customs. So, in the end, I think we’ll end up with a mixture of different things we can celebrate in one way or another, though I’d say that our own festivals are always going to be the ones that in our hearts we feel closest and most fondest of. Foreign festivals will always be perhaps ‘a bit of fun’, but our own festivals, especially those shared with family, will be the ones that have true inner meaning for us.
