Right. Today, my friends, I'm gonna tell you awesome things that you must, well, you should be doing if you're preparing for IELTS speaking in the coming months. Let's do it.
朋友們，今天，我要給大家帶來一些乾貨，如果你們在接下來的幾個月裡備考雅思口語，那就聽聽我說吧。我們開始吧。
So, my name is Keith and I run the keithspeakingacademy. Here to help you speak better English, give better answers, and get a higher score on IELTS speaking.
我叫基思，keithspeakingacademy 網站的運營人。我來幫助大家提高英語口語，作出更好的回答，在雅思口語中獲得更高的分數。
So today I'd like to give you these 10 tips and ideas about how to best prepare for IELTS speaking. So, first of all, just to be clear, actually, there is no one best way to study, to learn, or prepare.
今天我想給你們帶來十個技巧和建議，教你們如何為雅思口語做最好的準備。首先，澄清一下，實際上，沒有最好的學習和備考方法。
Everybody's different. We have different backgrounds, different environments, different ability.
每個人都是不同的。我們有不同的背景，不同的環境，不同的能力。
But what I'm giving you today are 10 guidelines that will really help you, whatever your background, get ready for the IELTS speaking test. As we begin, let me just remind you.
今天我要為大家帶來十個備考策略，無論你的背景如何，都能幫助你為雅思口語考試做好準備。我們開始吧，先提醒一下。
If you haven't done yet, subscribe to the channel, turn on the notifications so you can learn about new videos coming your way soon. Okay, great! Well, let's begin with tip number one.
還沒有訂閱的同學請訂閱我的頻道，打開通知，這樣，視頻更新的時候你很快就能知道了。太好了，讓我們從第一個策略開始。
So, first and foremost, I would say the first thing you should do is to do a mock test to know your strengths and your weaknesses. So, when you have a destination, somewhere you want to go, you may have a map and a compass and that can help you.
首先，也是最重要的，我想說你應該做的第一件事是做一個模擬測試來了解你的強項和弱項。當你有一個目的地，一個你想去的地方，你可能有一張地圖和一個指南針，這可以幫助你。
But if you don't know where you are now, how are you going to get there? What happens when you go into google maps and you look for directions?
如果你不知道你現在在哪裡，你要怎麼去那裡？當你進入谷歌地圖找方向時會發生什麼？
The first thing it says is your location. You need to know where you are now and it's the same with IELTS, right?
它首先顯示的是你的位置。你需要知道你現在在哪裡，雅思考試也是一樣，對吧？
If your goal, your destination is a band seven, you need to know your level now. Are you a four, a five, a six? What are your strengths? What are your weaknesses?
如果你的目標，你的目的是考七分，你需要知道你現在的水平。你是四分、五分、還是六分的水平？你的強項是什麼？你的缺點是什麼？
So that you know where to focus as you study. So, that's it.
當你學習的時候，你知道該把注意力放在哪裡。就是這樣。
Do a mock test. You can find a teacher to do it with you.
做一個模擬測試。你可以找個老師和你一起做。
The one that I recommend is take ielts. net. They have a package of mock tests that you can do.
我推薦的一個方法是使用 ielts.net。它們有一個供你使用的模擬測試包。
The great thing is they've got the four skills. They are professional and I think great value for money.
最重要的是它們了解了這四項技能。他們很專業，而且我認為錢花得很值。
So, you could do that. You can do it all online and then find out get feedback of where you are now. So, you know how best to get where you're going.
你可以這樣做。你可以在網上做這個測試，然後知道你現在究竟達到哪個水平。你知道如何以最好的方式達到你想要的分數。
So, that's it. Do a mock test first. Number two.
所以，就是這樣。先做一個模擬測試。第二點。
Number two is to make a realistic plan. So, when you make a plan, I would say you want to spend about 80 per cent of your time improving your general spoken English and about 20 per cent focused on the IELTS test, the format, the techniques and approaches for different questions there, right?
第二點就是制定一個切實可行的計劃。當你制定計劃的時候，我想你應該把80%的時間用來提高你的口語水平，20%的時間用來關注雅思考試的形式，不同問題的技巧和方法。
When you're looking at the the 80 per cent general English speaking and remember IELTS speaking is the same for academic or general, then be sure to focus on your study on language vocabulary.?So learning new words, learning collocations, learning words in context, um, learning the grammar of words and how they're used.
當你在用80%的時間學習口語的時候，要記住，雅思口語對於學術類和一般類都是一樣的，因此一定要把重點放在語言詞彙的學習上。學習生詞，學習搭配，學習單詞的語境，學習單詞的語法和用法。
Also on grammar, on activating your grammar, how it's used and how the grammar works. Make sure you're doing both of those and activate your language.
還有語法，激活你的語法，它是如何使用的，它的作用是什麼。確保你同時做了這兩件事，並且激活了你的語言。
So, practice, practice, practice. It's not enough to watch videos, it's not enough to listen to podcasts.
所以，練習，練習，再練習。看視頻是不夠的，聽播客是不夠的。
You need to be practicing as well so that you're activating a lot of the language. So, make sure your plan is balanced with general English and IELTS practice, make sure it's balanced with study and practice, and then make sure it's a realistic plan.
你也需要練習，這樣你才能激活大量的語言。要確保你的計劃是學習英語和練習雅思口語相平衡，確保學習和練習相平衡，然後確保它是一個實際可行的計劃。
So, a lot of students, right, might come to a teacher like me two weeks before the class and say, "Listen, I'm a band five, and my goal is to be a band seven. I've got the exam in two weeks time. Help!" Right! So, realistic, realistically, you're not going to achieve that, right?
很多學生可能會在上課前兩周來找老師，比如我，說：「聽著，我是五分水平的學生，我的目標是考七分。我兩周後就要考試了。幫幫我！」好吧！現實一點，你是不會做到的，對吧？
Now, in your plan, you need to know how long to dedicate to studying and practicing in order to get to the level that you want to get to, right? Now, of course, everybody is different.
在你的計劃中，你需要知道為了達到你想達到的水平，你需要花多長時間來學習和練習。當然，每個人都是不同的。
We have different backgrounds, maybe you've never spoken English before, maybe you traveled to an English-speaking country for several years when you were younger. We all have different motivations and different opportunities for practicing now.
我們有不同的背景，也許你以前從未說過英語，也許你年輕的時候去講英語的國家旅行了幾年。我們都有不同的動機和不同的練習機會。
So, we all learn in different ways. But there is research done and Cambridge do give some guidelines about how long it takes to move up a level.
所以，我們都以不同的方式學習。但是有這方面的研究，劍橋大學確實給出了一些關於提高分數需要多長時間的指南。
So, very simply, right, at a lower level, the kind of from a band three to a band four, it may take 120 hours of guided study, right? If you're looking and as you move up the levels, it takes longer, you need more time.
很簡單，對吧，在較低的級別中，從三分到四分，可能需要一百二十個小時的指導學習。你每升一分，花的時間越長，你需要更多的時間。
So, Cambridge give estimates, maybe band 4 to a band 5 around 200 hours, band 5 to a band 6 maybe 260, about 6 to a band 7 maybe 300 hours. Very very approximately speaking, right?
劍橋估計，四分到五分大概要兩百個小時，五分到六分大概要兩百六十個小時，六分到七分大概三百個小時。非常非常大概的說法。
But think about it. If it's gonna take you 300 hours to move from a band six to a band seven and you're studying three hours a day, that's a hundred days. And if you're studying Monday to Friday, five days a week, well, that's five months.
但是仔細想想。如果你要花三百個小時從六分到七分，而你每天學習三個小時，那就是一百天。如果你周一到周五學習，一周五天，那就是五個月。
Five months to go up a level. So, that can give you a guideline, right?
五個月才能升一分。這可以給你一個指導，對吧？
As I said, it's not true for everybody because we all have different circumstances. But as a very rough guideline, that's what you may be looking at.
就像我說的，不是每個人都是這樣，因為我們都有不同的環境。但你可以把它作為一個非常粗略的準則來參考。
So, make a realistic plan based on that, right? And when you have your plan, tell other people.
在此基礎上制定一個切實可行的計劃。當你制定了你的計劃，告訴其他人。
If you make a plan to do something, I'm gonna to do, I don't know, I'm gonna do the IELTS test, tell other people what you're going to do. "I'm gonna do IELTS in october.
如果你做了一個計劃，我要，例如，我要參加雅思考試，告訴其他人你要做什麼。「我十月份要參加雅思考試。
I'm gnna study five days a week, two hours a day." Tell your friends and your family, so they can hold you accountable.
我希望每周學習五天，每天學習兩小時。」告訴你的朋友和家人，這樣他們才能對你負責。
And when you're not studying, they say, "Well, you said you're gonna do this and now you're not. What's happening?" Telling other people can really help them encourage you and push you, hold you accountable to make sure you are studying.
當你不學習的時候，他們會說：「你說你要做這個，現在你不做了。怎麼回事？」告訴別人真的可以幫助他們鼓勵你，督促你，讓你對自己負責，確保你在學習。
So, share your plan with others as well. Now, number three.
那麼，把你的計劃也分享給別人吧。現在，第三點。
And number three: Get some good resources. There's nothing worse than spending hours going through websites that I've got unreliable information, bad English, and just do not help you, right?
第三點：找一些好的資源。沒有什麼比花幾個小時瀏覽網站更糟糕的了，我得到的信息不可靠，英語很爛，而且就是不能幫助你。
It's a, it's a maze of information out there. So, find the good reliable resources.
這是一個信息的迷宮。要找到好的可靠的資源。
Now, these may include teachers, right? Find a good teacher, a good school if you can.
這些人可能包括老師，對吧？如果可能的話，找一個好老師，一個好學校。
That may be face to face or online. Communities, on Facebook, there are lots of very very good communities where you can be learning lots, sharing, getting motivated with other students as well.
可以是面對面的，也可以是在線的。在臉書上有很多非常好的社區，在那裡你可以學到很多東西，分享，和其他學生一起獲得動力。
Websites, of course, but again, make sure you get the good reliable ones. For example, ieltsliz is very good, ieltsadvantage has some very good free resources, ieltsetc also great free resources, the ielts. com, britishcouncil.
當然了，還有網站，但是再次強調，一定要確保你得到的資料是好的可靠的。例如，ieltsliz 非常好，ieltsadvantage 有一些非常好的免費資源，ieltsetc 也有很好的免費資源，ielts.com，britishcouncil。
They all have some great resources that you can use. There are books.
它們都有一些你可以利用的資源。還有書。
So I would say, you know, two of the key books probably The official Cambridge Guide to IELTS would be a invaluable purchase, Cambridge Practice Tests, um, the series 1 to 14. All of those can be great to be doing practice tests.
所以我想說，有兩本關鍵的書，《劍橋雅思官方指南》，一定要買，《劍橋練習考試》，嗯，系列 1 到 14。所有這些對於做練習測試都很有用。
I think reference books, having a good dictionary is absolutely essential. Nowadays, most people are using online dictionaries, but you know, the macmillan, collins, oxford, they're all great dictionaries online.
我認為參考書、一本好字典是絕對必要的。如今，大多數人都在使用在線詞典，但你知道，macmillan、柯林斯、牛津，它們都是很棒的在線詞典。
And then you've got reference books. I like the series which is the English Collocations in Use by Michael McCarthy.
還有參考書。我喜歡麥可·麥卡錫的《英語搭配的使用》。
There's also the English Grammar in Use, English Idioms in Use. There's different levels. I think the advanced level with again, Michael McCarthy, Felicity O'dell.
還有《英語語法的使用》，《英語習語的使用》。有不同的水平。我認為高水平的學生可以選麥可·麥卡錫、費利西蒂·奧戴爾的書。
There these are great reference books that can help you expand your knowledge and vocabulary. But also, make sure that you're activating it through practice.
有一些很好的參考書可以幫助你擴展你的知識和詞彙。同時，一定要通過練習來激活它。
So, these are all great resources to have that will help you prepare for IELTS speaking. Number four is to become familiar with the format of the test: the common topics in the test, and the evaluation criteria for the test.
這些都是幫助你準備雅思口語的好資源。第四是熟悉考試的形式：考試中常見的話題，以及考試的評分標準。
It's really important that you know the kind of questions you're going to be asked so you're not caught out by surprise. Understanding the the topics so that helping you prepare by topic.
知道你將要被問到的問題類型是非常重要的，這樣你就不會措手不及。理解話題，有助於你按話題備考。
I wouldn't necessarily prepare all the questions. I mean, there are just so many and they change, and in part three, they can change.
我不一定要準備所有的問題。我的意思是，問題有那麼多，而且還會變，在第三部分，它們可以變。
The examiner can make them up. So, focus on the topics that you can study, um, whether the topics are holidays, travel, environment, animals, right?
考官可以編一些問題出來。所以，要關注你可以學習的話題，嗯，不管這個話題是假期、旅行、環境還是動物。
Learning to talk confidently and flexibly about those topics is key. So, where can you find this information about the format of the exam and the topics?
學會自信而靈活地談論這些話題是關鍵。那麼，你在哪裡可以找到關於考試形式和題目的信息呢？
Well, keithspeakingacademy. com has something, ielts. com, the official website, britishcouncil has a free course, roadtoielts tells you all about the exam format. There's also on futurelearn, understanding ielts speaking, a free course, I think for three weeks, will help you understand the format of the test.
好吧，keithspeakingacademy.com 有一些資料，ielts.com 是官方網站，britishcouncil 有免費課程，roadtoielts 告訴你所有關於考試形式的信息。在 futurelearn 網站上有一門免費的課程，叫做「理解雅思口語」，我想這是一門為期三周的課程，可以幫助你理解考試的形式。
Really well worth doing. And finally, knowing the evaluation criteria.
真的很值得做。最後，了解評估標準。
So, the basics are fluency, vocabulary, grammar pronunciation. The band descriptors are available publicly.
最基本的是流利度，詞彙量，語法發音。分數要求說明可以在網上獲得。
They're out there on the Internet. You can get them and check what you need there.
它們在網上有。你可以去查一下，看看你需要哪些能力。
There's a link down below if you want to get those. And if you want to learn more about the evaluation, watch my video up here.
如果你想要了解這些，下面有一個連結。如果你想了解更多關於評估的信息，請觀看我的視頻。
It tells you all about the four areas you're evaluated on in IELTS speaking. Next up.
它會告訴你雅思口語評估的四個方面。下一個。
Number five is to do lots of blah blah blah blah blah blah, speaking practice. So, sometimes, students fall into the trap of studying with the books, studying with the books watching the videos watching the videos.
第五點就是多做口語練習。有時候，學生們會陷入書本學習，書本學習，看視頻，看視頻的圈套。
But they're not actually speaking or practicing. And it's essential, right, you need to practice repeating for your pronunciation, intonation.
但他們實際上並沒有開口說或練習。這很重要，對吧，你需要練習重複你的發音和語調。
But you also need to practice, interacting with people, so you can react quickly, be flexible, think on your feet, right? So, speaking practice is essential.
但是你也需要練習，與人互動，這樣你才能反應迅速，靈活，獨立思考，對吧？所以，口語練習很重要。
A great way to do that is finding a speaking partner. Again, Facebook groups are full of people looking for speaking partners.
找一個口語拍檔是一個非常好的方法。同樣，Facebook 群組裡到處都是尋找口語拍檔的人。
You can also find a teacher. Nowadays, on online, you've got CAMBLY, you've got italki, find some great teachers who can help you practice English or look for a language partner where you teach them your language and they teach you English.
你也可以找老師。現在，在網上，你可以找到 CAMBLY，你可以找到 italki，找一些可以幫助你練習英語的好老師，或者找一個語言學習拍檔，你可以教他們你的語言，他們也可以教你英語。
It's another way of doing it. That way, it can be free, you just give your time but get into the habit of practicing and practicing whenever you can.
這是另一種方法。用這個方法就更自由了，你只需要付出你的時間，但是要養成練習的習慣，只要你有機會就不斷練習。
Number six is to get feedback on your speaking. So, when you're speaking, you are gonna make mistakes.
第六，對你的口語進行反饋。所以，當你講英語的時候，你會犯錯誤。
There'll be issues around fluency, pronunciation, use of vocabulary or grammar. And you need somebody to say, "Listen, that is not correct. Change it."
在流利度、發音、詞彙使用或語法方面會有問題。你需要有人告訴你，「聽著，這個不對。改掉。」
"What do you mean by that?" - "Do you realize you're hesitating?" And just to have almost a mirror that somebody with a very good level of English who can give you feedback, give you corrections.
「你這是什麼意思？」 - 「你意識到你在猶猶豫豫的嗎？」就像一面鏡子，一個英語水平很高的人可以給你反饋，給你糾正。
Because if you're not correcting your mistakes, the danger is you repeat, repeat, repeat the mistakes and you don't improve. So, having somebody to give you feedback, that can be a student at a higher level, it can be a language partner or a speaking partner, it can be a teacher.
因為如果你不糾正你的錯誤，危險就在於你會一直重複錯誤，無法改進。找個人給你反饋吧，可以是高水平的學生，也可以是學習拍檔或口語拍檔，也可以是老師。
Again, if you're on one of these online platforms, having a teacher to give you the feedback. It's really important to get that.
如果你都有這些在線平臺，就找個老師給你反饋。這是非常重要的。
Now, number seven. . . . . . in some ways is related to number six about getting feedback.
第七點............在某種程度上，它與第六點有關，關於獲得反饋。
Number seven is to record yourself speaking, and listen, so you can improve. Now, if you can't find a teacher to give you feedback, actually you yourself can give yourself feedback.
第七，錄下自己的口語，然後傾聽，這樣你就能提高自己。如果你找不到老師給你反饋，實際上你可以自己給自己反饋。
When you record yourself speaking and listen back, you're then able to some extent to evaluate some of the things you're saying. You can certainly evaluate fluency, hesitation, because you can hear it.
當你錄下自己的講話並回放時，你就能在某種程度上評估你所說的內容。你肯定能判斷你的流利程度、是否猶豫的問題，因為你能聽出來。
You may be able to evaluate grammar, common mistakes that you know you make. You may be able to pick up on pronunciation issues possibly as well, right?
你也許能判斷出你所犯的語法和常見錯誤。你也許能發現你的發音問題。
And the great thing, as I mentioned before about the band descriptors, right, the evaluation criteria, is you can use that to also listen to your recording and say, "The band 7 level needs this flexibility. Am I flexible or am I just giving memorized answers?"
最棒的是，正如我之前提到的分數要求描述，對吧，評估標準，你可以用它來對比你的錄音，然後說：「七分考生需要這種靈活性。我夠靈活嗎，還是我只是背誦答案？」
So, use that as well to help you see if you're making progress. Also, when you record yourself, you can share that with friends or other students or your teacher.
那麼，用這種方法來幫助你看看自己是否有進步吧。此外，當你自己錄製時，你可以與朋友、其他學生或老師分享。
When you ask with a speaking partner, you ask your speaking and ask them to correct you. It can be quite embarrassing sometimes, for a speaking partner, they may not want to upset you or tell you lots of mistakes.
當你問你的口語拍檔，你問你的口語如何，並讓他們糾正你。這有時會很尷尬，因為你的口語拍檔可能不想讓你難過或告訴你很多錯誤。
And they've really got to listen carefully. But when you get a recording, certainly in my case, when somebody sends me a recording, I can sit down quietly, cup of tea, listen a couple of times and see what the mistakes are and give very specific feedback.
他們必須認真傾聽。但是當你收到一段錄音時，當然在我的情況下，當有人發給我一段錄音時，我可以安靜地坐下來，喝杯茶，聽幾遍，看看錯誤在哪裡，然後給出非常具體的反饋。
You can do that whether you're a partner, a student, or a teacher, so you can send your recording to others to give them for them to give you feedback. And it can be a very very effective way of using the recording to get feedback from others.
無論你是口語拍檔、學生還是老師，你都可以這樣做，你可以把你的錄音發給其他人，讓他們給你反饋。這是一種非常非常有效的方式，用錄音來獲得他人的反饋。
So, that gives you more flexibility as well. You can send it to them through Facebook, messenger, email, whichever you prefer.
這也讓你可以更靈活地處理。你可以通過臉書、簡訊、電子郵件等任何你喜歡的方式發送給他們。
Number eight is to extend and activate vocabulary. I think especially at the higher levels.
第八點是擴展和激活詞彙。我認為更高的水平的學生尤其如此。
When you get, once you get to a band six, you've probably learned most of the grammar. You're going to ever need and your pronunciation is much harder to start changing after years and years of speaking, but vocabulary is something you can always expand.
當你到達了六分的水平，你可能已經學會了大部分的語法。在你說了那麼多年的英語，你的發音很難開始改變，但是詞彙是你可以不斷擴大的。
You can have notebooks, make re-, you know, record vocabulary. When you do that, record the form, is it a noun, a verb, an adjective, adverb, record the collocation, which words go together, record the context.
你可以用筆記本記錄詞彙。當你這樣做的時候，要記錄它們的形式，名詞形式、動詞形式、形容詞形式、副詞形式，記錄它們的搭配，這些詞的搭配，記錄它們的語境。
Now, recording and making notes is good, but it's the activation that's key. So, having lots of passive vocabulary and three or four books full of word lists, that's a start.
記錄和做筆記是好的，但是激活才是關鍵。所以，擁有大量的被動詞彙和三、四本書的詞彙表，這是一個開始。
But you need to be able to use them. So, you need to focus on activating vocabulary.
但是你需要能夠使用它們。所以，你需要專注於激活詞彙。
Indeed, I would say, at some point, that you almost stop learning new vocabulary because you've already got a huge pool of passive vocabulary in your brain that you need to get out. So, when you're doing your speaking practice, don't focus so much on the new words and fancy band nine level words, focus on what you know that's in here and getting it out and starting to speak it out fluently.
事實上，我想說，在某種程度上，你幾乎停止學習新詞彙，因為你的大腦中已經有了一個巨大的被動詞彙庫，你需要把它們取出來。所以，當你在做口語練習的時候，不要太關注新單詞和花哨的九分單詞，而要關注你所知道的東西，把它表達出來，開始流利地說出來。
That activation of vocabulary, it's a really key thing, it can make a huge difference to your score if you focus on that area. Good. Moving on.
詞彙的激活，這是非常關鍵的，如果你專注於這方面，它會對你的分數產生巨大的影響。好。繼續。
Tip number nine is to immerse yourself in English but natural and authentic English. So, what often happens to students is they're studying from the course book, reading the dictionary, looking at the reference books.
策略九是讓自己沉浸在自然地道的英語中。學生們常常從課本中學習，讀字典，看參考書。
And a lot of that language is for students and you're forgetting the natural language. What sometimes we call the authentic English which is spoken by native speakers or very proficient speakers.
裡面的很多用語是為學生準備的，而你會忘記自然使用中的用語。有時我們稱之為地道英語，是由母語為英語的人或英語非常熟練的人說的。
So, your films, your podcasts, your radio shows, your series on TV or netflix. All of that natural authentic English which is where you'll find some of the really really useful language and not only developing your listening skills, but building up your passive language, right?
電影、播客、電臺節目、電視或網飛上播放的電視劇。所有這些自然地道的英語，在那裡你會找到一些真正有用的語言，不僅發展你的聽力技能，而且建立你的被動語言。
And I think that's really key because it can be fun as well because you can learn things that you enjoy learning and studying, not just the things in the course book that you may have, right? And I think it's really important to expose yourself to a wide variety of things.
我認為這很關鍵，因為這也很有趣，因為你可以學到你喜歡學習的東西，而不僅僅是課本上的東西，對吧？我認為讓自己接觸各種各樣的事物是非常重要的。
So, if you're always watching Fast and Furious. . . Action movies for English.
所以，如果你一直在看《速度與激情》......英語動作片。
That's okay, but that's not gonna give you a wide variety of vocabulary. So, do make sure you're watching different things, right, whether it's cooking programmes, politics, debate shows are great right for topical issues, maybe the news, maybe a comedy show, all of these things, and remember that the usual IELTS topics.
沒關係，但這並不能給你們提供豐富的詞彙。一定要確保你看的是不同的節目，無論是烹飪節目，政治節目，辯論節目，都適合談論話題，可能是新聞，可能是喜劇節目，所有這些，記住雅思的常見話題。
And make sure you're listening to that kind of language. It's really useful. And you'll also find as you listen to these things that you get some great ideas.
一定要聽那些內容。這真的很有用。你還會發現，當你聽這些東西的時候，你會得到一些很好的想法。
Now, although IELTS speaking, you're not evaluated on the quality of your ideas, you do need ideas to talk about. So, if you're asked questions about climate change and you have no idea what is going on with climate change other than it's not good, you're going to struggle to show off your language.
雖然雅思口語考試不是根據你的想法的質量來評估的，但你確實需要談論一些想法。所以，如果你被問到關於氣候變化的問題，而你不知道氣候變化到底是怎麼回事，除了它不好之外，你將很難展示你的語言。
So, listen to some podcasts on climate change, watch a documentary on climate change, you know that's a topic that may come up. So, be looking at, you know, getting not just the language but the ideas that you can talk about, especially in part three of IELTS speaking.
聽一些關於氣候變化的播客，看一個關於氣候變化的紀錄片，你知道這是一個可能會出現的話題。你要學習的不僅僅是語言，還有你可以談論的想法，尤其是在雅思口語的第三部分。
And I think you'll find, as you build your language and build a whole stock of ideas, your confidence comes up. Because as they start asking questions about more complex issues, right, you've got the ideas, you've seen things and listen to things, helps build your confidence.
我想你會發現，當你建立起自己的語言和思想儲備時，你的信心就會上升。因為當他們開始問更複雜的問題時，你已經有了想法，你已經看過、聽過這些內容了，這有助於建立你的信心。
Great! Moving on. Number 10 is to do plenty of practice tests under exam conditions.
太棒了！繼續。第十條是在考試條件下做大量的練習。
Under exam conditions means you imagine you are in the exam. So, you can do this in different ways.
在考試條件下是指你想像自己在考試中。你可以用不同的方法來做這個。
You can ask a friend or a teacher to give you a mock test, a real practice test. You can record yourself asking some questions, play them back.
你可以讓朋友或老師給你一個模擬測試，一個真正的練習測試。你可以錄下自己問問題的過程，然後回放。
But you do it timed, following the timing and without stopping. Right. You don't in the middle of a question go, "Oh, no, no, oh, that's a mistake, stop! Rewind!" "No, no! Let's do it again!"
但是你定時，按照定時做，不要停下來。對吧。你不要在問題進行到一半的時候說，「哦，不，不，哦，說錯了，停！重來」，「不，不！讓我們再來一次！」
No! You go through from the start to the end, the full 11 to 14 minutes, and you do it non-stop like it was the exam. Why? Because it puts pressure on you and it makes you react the way you're going to react in the test.
不！從頭到尾，整整 11 到 14 分鐘，不能停，就像考試一樣。為什麼？因為這會給你帶來壓力，它會讓你做出你在考試中將要做出的反應。
And if you've never done it and suddenly, you're in the test, you're out of your comfort zone, you've never had the pressure. So, get used to the pressure, get used to the timing, get used to doing practice tests, speaking tests under exam conditions.
如果你從來沒有做過，突然，你參加了考試，你離開了你的舒適區，你從來沒有過壓力。所以，要適應壓力，適應時間，適應練習考試，適應情景模擬條件下的口語考試。
It's really important. Also, you know, on speaking day, you don't want to be caught out by any surprises, right?
這真的很重要。而且，你知道，在口語考試那天，你不想發生任何意外，對吧？
"Oh, I didn't know it would go on for 14 minutes," "Oh, I didn't know we only had one minute to prepare." Come on! Make sure you know the format and you know what's going to happen, not only that you know it, but that you've experienced it.
「哦，我不知道它會持續14分鐘，」「哦，我不知道我們只有一分鐘的準備時間。」不會吧！確保你知道它的形式，你要知道將要發生什麼，不僅你知道它，而且你經歷過它。
So, you're more confident, right? On that note, you should also know so that you're not getting any surprises on test day.
這樣，你就會更自信，對吧？關於這一點，你也應該知道，這樣在考試那天你就不會有任何意外了。
You should know the test is recorded, so the examiner has a little mp3 player, right, don't be surprised. The examiner doesn't answer questions in part one or part two, right, part three possibly, but not at the beginning.
你應該知道考試是錄音的，所以考官有一個小 mp3 播放器，對吧，不要驚訝。考官在第一部分或第二部分不會回答問題，對吧，第三部分也可能不會，但不會在一開始就回答。
The examiner will not change the cue card or the topic card in part two. The examiner will sometimes interrupt you and they can do it quite curtly or sharply, don't be surprised.
在第二部分中，考官不會更改提示卡或主題卡。考官有時會打斷你，他們可能會很快速或很突然地打斷你，不要感到驚訝。
The examiner won't let you just talk on and on and on about the same topic. They will be cutting you in, cutting you off and interrupting you, because they want to move on to different questions to test your wide range of language and ability and to test your flexibility, especially in part three.
考官不會讓你就一個話題說個不停的。他們會打斷你，打斷你，打斷你，因為他們想繼續問不同的問題，測試你的語言和能力的廣通性，測試你的靈活性，特別是在第三部分。
Can you react and give justification evaluation of your opinions and other ideas? And of course, remember, sometimes the examiner doesn't look very interested, because of course, they don't care about your ideas, they're just focused on the language you're using, okay?
你能對你的觀點和其他想法做出反應並給出理由嗎？當然，記住，有時候考官看起來並不是很感興趣，因為他們並不關心你的想法，他們只是關注你使用的語言，明白嗎？
So, you don't want any surprises on test day. So, make sure you not only know these things, but you've experienced them through doing practice tests under exam conditions.
你不希望考試那天出現任何意外吧。那麼就要確保你們不僅知道這些方法，還要通過在模擬考試中練習中實踐它們。
