解密口语最核心内容：Part2为何那么重要

Arlay

雅思口语考试中，同学们看到的最多回忆就是PART2，为什么只有第二部分回忆呢?是因为part2在雅思口语中占有的特殊地位，以及考试独白形式。今天给大家具体分析分析~

Part2的重要性 IELTS Speaking: the importance of part 2

Students often ask me what will happen if they do badly in part 2 of the speaking test. Is it still possible to get a high score?

Yes, in theory, it is still possible to get a reasonably high score (maybe band 7) if you do badly in part 2, but you would need to give excellent answers in part 3. In practice, candidates rarely recover from a bad part 2; I don't remember anyone who made a mess of part 2 but suddenly did a fantastic part 3.

My advice: You should consider part 2 as the core of your speaking test. It's your best chance to show how good your English is, and it's the examiner's best chance to listen carefully to your use of language. In fact, it's probably the point at which most examiners get a clear idea of what score to give you.

1 理论上，如果你的PART2没说好，PART3很厉害，那么还是可能拿一个好成绩

2 实际上，如果你PART2没说好，你基本上是很难恢复状态去说好PART3.

3 所以我觉得口语最重要的部分是PART2，大部分考官会在PART2 大概知道要给你多少分

雅思口语是否要用复杂句 complex structures?

Students often worry that they need to use "complex structures" in the speaking test. But what is a complex structure?

This website explains the difference between simple sentences, compound sentences and complex sentences. You'll notice that compound and complex sentences are much easier than they sound! I'm sure you use them all the time without realising it.

Here's my advice: stop worrying about the need for "complex" grammar. Instead, focus on expressing your ideas well. As you explain your ideas in detail, you will naturally produce longer sentences which contain a variety of grammatical features.

不要担心复杂的语法。关注怎么表达你的想法。如果你的想法很具体，你很自然就会出现很长的句子，然后句子有不同的语法特征。
