我们好。我是基斯，以防你不知道我，我运营了一个叫做 ieltsspeakingsuccess 的网站，为你们本钱、主意和模板答案来协助前进你的英语，作出非常好的答复，并在雅思口语考试中获得更高的分数。
Also, I run Facebook and YouTube live lessons, free lessons for everybody every Tuesday and Thursday at 10 a. m. Spanish time. Go and check it out in the links below.
另外，我在西班牙时刻每周二和周四上午十点为我们免费开设 Facebook 和 YouTube 实时课程。点击下面的联接去看看吧。
Now, come closer. Now, listen. Imagine that you've prepared for your IELTS speaking test for months, right?
You've been preparing, you've had lessons, you've watched videos, you've done a mock test, you've got a speaking partner and you're ready to go.
如今，接近点。听着，愿望一下你现已为雅思口语考试预备了几个月。你一向在预备，上了课，看了视频，做了仿照查验，有个练口语的火伴，你现已预备好了。
And then, it's test day. You get a bit nervous.
然后，查验那天到了。你有点严峻。
You check your Facebook and you think: "Everybody's better than me". And then, you start getting a bit anxious and you start to lose your confidence.
你刷了你的脸书，在想：“每自个都比我好”。然后你初步变得有些不安，并初步失掉决心。
You go into the test room. The examiner doesn't smile.
你进入考场。考官没有浅笑。
You start making mistakes. And then the examiner keeps interrupting you and it all goes belly-up.
你初步犯错。然后，考官一向打断你，悉数都溃散了。
Well, listen. Don't let that happen to you. Get a pen and paper, listen carefully, make notes and follow these tips to make sure your test day is a success and that you get the score you deserve.
嗯，听着。不要让这个情况发生在你的身上。拿支笔和一张纸，细心听，做好笔记，跟着这些好办法，保证你在查验日获得成功，拿到你应得的分数。
Let's get into it. So, my first tip is go to bed early the night before the test.
咱们初步吧。我的第一个好办法是在考试的前一天晚上早点睡。
Test day is a big day. Even if it's just the speaking test, you need to be on form, right?
查验日是个大日子。即便它只是口语查验，你也需要坚持状况。
Energetic, and alert, and awake. So, you need to sleep well.
充溢活力、坚持警惕和清醒。因而，你需要睡个好觉。
There is no point in cramming and studying the night before until the early hours. It's not gonna help, it's not gonna change your English speaking at this late stage.
在考试前一天晚上死记硬背和学习到清晨是没有意义的。这不会有协助，也不会改动你如今的英语口语。
So, don't study, maybe watch a film in English, listen to a podcast in English, but relax, go to bed early, so the next day you're full of beans, ready for your IELTS speaking test. Number two, breathe and focus!
所以，不要学习，或许看一部英语影片，听英语播客，但要放松，早点睡觉，这样第二天你就精力充分，预备好雅思口语考试了。第二，呼吸、会集精力！
One of the biggest problems all candidates have is nerves. Getting nervous makes them anxious, make mistakes, and very quickly you can lose all of your confidence.
一切考生最大的疑问之一就是神经严峻。严峻会让他们焦虑，犯差错，很快你就会失掉决心。
So, the thing to do in the morning, right, you've got up early, you've had a big breakfast, you get to the venue on time. Find a place, a quiet place, just for two minutes and breathe.
所以，早上要做的事就是早上、吃了一顿丰富的早餐、准时抵达会场。找个当地，一个恬静的当地，就两分钟，然后呼吸。
You can call this meditation, mindfulness, following the breath. It's just taking time to breathe and notice your breathing.
你可以称之为冥想，正念，跟从呼吸。只是花点时刻去呼吸，留心你的呼吸。
So, you breathe in and out. Do this with me just now. I'll show you.
吸气，呼气。如今跟着我做。我会教你。
Breathe in, and out. Don't try to breathe.
吸气，呼气。不要试着呼吸。
Just let your body breathe, but you can notice the breath. Maybe you can feel it on your nostrils, down in your abdomen, and when it comes out, maybe on your lips or on your nostrils.
让你的身体呼吸，但你能留心到呼吸。或许你能感遭到气流在你的鼻孔里，在你的腹部，当它出来的时分，或许在你的嘴唇上或鼻孔上。
And just follow that breath. It is an amazing way to get focused.
跟着呼吸。这是一种令人惊奇的会集留心力的方法。
Try it with me, just for two breaths. It's an amazing way to get into that moment and to get really focused.
和我一同试试，呼吸两下。这是一种进入状况并真实会集留心力的奇特方法。
It's not easy to do, you can't just do it like that. It's a bit like the gym or speaking English.
这不简略做，你不能就这样做。这有点像健身或说英语。
You do need to train and practice. So, maybe for the the week before the test, every morning, just find a quiet place and sit for two minutes and follow the breath.
你的确需要练习和操练。或许在考试前的一周，每天早上，找一个恬静的当地，坐两分钟，跟着呼吸。
Do it first thing when you get up when the house is quiet. If you've got lots of children and people around the house, do it in the toilet.
当你起床，屋里很恬静的时分，首要做这件事。假定你家里有许多孩子和人，那就去厕所吧。
Go in the toilet. And when you've finished your business or brushing your teeth, just follow the breath.
进入厕所。当你做完你的作业或刷完牙，就跟着呼吸。
If anybody knocks on the door, don't say, "I'm meditating." Doesn't work.
假定有人敲门，不要说：“我在冥想。”没有用。
"Oh, you could do that later." Say, "I'm on the toilet."
“噢，你可以晚点再做。”说：“我在上厕所。”
Because everybody understands you're on the toilet. "Oh, right. Okay. Let him be. That's okay."
因为每自个都会了解你在上厕所。“好吧，让他上吧。没联络。”
And then have that two minutes every day, follow the breath. Just let it be. Tip number three, smile before you enter the room, the exam room, okay?
然后每天做两分钟，跟着呼吸。顺从其美。第三个技巧，进入考场前要浅笑。
Because when you smile, your body changes, your physiology changes, and your psychology changes. You start to feel better.
因为当你浅笑的时分，你的身领会改动，你的生理也会改动，你的心思也会改动。你初步感触杰出。
And you will project a bit of energy which hopefully, will make the examiner feel better.
So, smile just a few seconds before you go into the room and get ready and this will help you relax and help the examiner relax.
你会体现出一点活力，而且这很可以会让考官感触好一些。所以，在你进入房间预备好之前，浅笑几秒钟，这将有助于你放松和协助考官放松。
Tip number four, make your first answers in the introduction short.
The introduction, I mean the questions about either your home, hometown or family, not family, about your home, hometown, work or study.
技巧四，在介绍中简略地答复疑问。介绍，我指的是关于你的家，家乡或家庭，而不是家庭，关于你的家，家乡，作业或学习的疑问。
You'll just get one or two questions there. It really is a warm up.
在这一环节你会被问一到两个疑问。这是热身。
So, keep your answers short. Because if you make them longer, you've got a good chance of making mistakes and hesitating and it's a bad first impression.
所以，你的答案必定要简略。因为假定你答复得长，你很有可以会犯错、犹疑，这是一个不好的第一形象。
So, keep it really short and make it a better impression. For example, right: "What do you do?"
所以必定要使它简略，留下一个非常好的形象。例如：“你的作业是啥？”
"Well, I'm a teacher. I've been teaching for about ten years."
“嗯，我是一名教师。我现已教育十年了。”
Boom! Stop! It's enough, right? "Do you like your job?"
嘣！停！够了，好吗？“你喜爱你的作业吗？”
"Yeah, I do actually, I really enjoy it. Particularly making videos and teaching students and watching them progress."
“喜爱，厚道说我真的很喜爱。”特别是制造视频、教育生和看到他们前进。”
Boom! Stop! Keep it short. Warm up. That's it. Tip number five, take your time when you answer.
嘣！停！这么短就好了。热身。可以了。第五招，作答的时分要沉着不迫。
In part one, but particularly part three, don't rush into your answer. What a lot of people do is they get a bit nervous.
在第一有些，特别是第三有些，不要急于答复。许多人都会有点严峻。
They hear the question and they start speaking before they've got their first idea. It's fine to stop for a second or two, just be silent and then give your answer.
他们听到疑问，然后在第一个主意出来之前就初步说话。停一两秒钟也没联络，缄默沉静一下然后给出你的答案。
For example: "Do you cook?" "Yes, I do cook, I've been cooking since I was a kid.
例如：“你会煮饭吗？”“是的，我会煮饭，从我是个孩子的时分我就初步煮饭了。
I'm really enjoying it actually, my favourite dish is Paella!" So, I took a few seconds to stop and think.
我真的很喜爱煮饭，我最喜爱的菜是海鲜饭！”我中止几秒钟思考了一下。
Get my first idea at least, and then I can make up the rest as I go. But be careful that you don't do this: "Do you cook?"
至稀有了我的第一个主意，然后我就可以边说边补了。“你会煮饭吗？”
"Yeah, yeah, I do. Yes. (Oh no, I don't cook! ) Well, kind of, I like to cook, I. . . (What am I saying? I hate cooking! )
“是的，是的，我会。对。（哦不，我不会煮饭！）嗯，我喜爱煮饭，我......（我该说啥？我厌烦煮饭！）
. . . cook eggs, fry, boiled egg. . . (What do I say now? ) (Oh, what a mess! )"
煮鸡蛋，炒、水煮鸡蛋......（如今我该说啥？）（噢，真是一团糟！）”
Tip number six.?Don't worry if the examiner interrupts you or cuts in.
第六招。假定考官打断你或插话，不要忧虑。
They often do this because they have a certain number of questions they have to ask you. And they want to test you.
他们常常这样做是因为他们有必定数量的疑问要问你。他们想查验你。
Each question will be testing something different, so they want to see also the range of vocabulary on different topics.
So, they're always cutting and changing question to see if you can show that range of vocabulary and language and to see if you can react quickly to a different question.
每个疑问都会查验不一样的内容，所以他们也期望晓得不一样主题的词汇规模。所以，他们老是不断地批改疑问，看看你能不能展示出满足的词汇和言语，看看你能不能对不一样的疑问做出快速反应。
It's perfectly normal. Don't worry. It's not necessarily a bad thing.
这非常正常。不必忧虑。这并不必定是坏事。
Actually, it can be a very good thing sometimes, because maybe the examiner has heard enough and they want to move to the next topic, so they cut in go to the next question. It will happen. Just relax. Breathe and move on to the next question.
实际上，有时分这是一件非常好的作业，因为或许考官现已听够了，他们想转到下一个论题，所以他们就切入到下一个疑问。这会发生的。放松点。深呼吸，持续下一个疑问。
Tip number seven. Remember in part 1 and actually part 2, it's all about you, your personal experience. So, try not to talk in wide, vague, general terms, right?
第七招。记住，在第一有些和第二有些，疑问都是关于你，你的自个阅历。所以不要答复得广泛、迷糊、笼统。
If somebody asks, you know, "Do you get up early in the morning?" Don't say, "Yes, getting up early in the morning is very good for you.
假定有人问你：“你早上很早上床吗？”不要说：“是的，早上早上对你很有优点。
I think it's a great habit that everybody should adopt." That's not about you, that's very very general.
我认为这是每自个都大约养成的好习气。”这不是关于你，这非常非常的笼统。
Change it to "I": "Yes, I get up very early in the morning.
改成“我”。“是的，我每天早上都很早上床。
I think it's a great habit and I'm really happy it's one that I've adapted." Or not "adapted", "adopted".
我认为这是一个极好的习气，我很高兴我现已习气了这个习气。”不是“习气”，是“养成”。
Can you see the difference? I, me, not vagaries.
看到差异了吗？我，不是别人。
Number eight. In part three, develop your answers!
第8。在第三有些，拓宽你的答案。
That's key. The simple way to do it: give an opinion, give a reason, and give an example, and make it really specific examples.
这是要害。简略的办法是：给出一个观念，给出一个理由，偏重出一个比方，使之变成真实具体的比方。
Why? Because it gives and brings out much richer vocabulary and that's what you want to show off to the examiner, right? So, don't wait for them to say, "Why? For example?"
为啥？因为这样能带来更丰厚的词汇，这就是你想要向考官展示的，对吧？不要等他们问：“为啥？例如呢？”
Give that information, tell them your opinion, why, and give some examples. And that can be done very simply with "I would say. . .", ". . . because. . .", "for example. . .".
说出那些信息，告诉他们你的观念，缘由，偏重些比方。这可以很简略地用“我想说…”，“…因为…”，“例如…”来做到。
Imagine this question: What are the advantages of living in a big city? "Well, I would say one of the biggest advantages is there are more job opportunities.
这个疑问：住在大城市有啥优点？“嗯，我想说最大的优点之一就是有更多的作业机缘。
And I think that's because a lot of the big companies tend to put their headquarters in the big cities.
For example, HSBC, an international bank, it has its main headquarters in London and other branches in other cities.
我认为这是因为许多大公司倾向于把总部设在大城市。例如，汇丰银行，一家世界性银行，它的总部设在伦敦，其他分行则设在其他城市。
In fact, I think in London they have a branch down on near Trafalgar Square. It takes up about 3 floors of this high-rise building, and they must have over 200 employees there."
实际上，我认为在伦敦，他们在特拉法加广场邻近有一家分行。它占了一栋高层建筑的三层楼，那里必定有两百多名职工。”
So, with a specific example, new language comes out: branch, employees, three-storey, high-rise building.
Suddenly, it's a different wider set of vocabulary and that's what you want to show off.
举一个具体的比方，新的词汇就用上了：分行、职工、三层、高层建筑。俄然间，它就集合了许多不一样的词汇，而这就是你想展示的。
So remember, develop your part 3 answers. Number 9, be as natural as possible.
所以，记住，拓宽第三有些的答复。第九，尽可以地天然。
Imagine if you can that the examiner is a new friend you've just met and you're chatting over a coffee. They want to find out some things about you.
假定可以的话，愿望一下，考官是你刚知道的一个新兄弟，你正在喝咖啡谈天。他们想晓得你的一些情况。
You want to tell them some things about yourself. And so, just speak as naturally as you can with the kind of language you would use when speaking naturally.
你想告诉他们一些关于你自个的作业。所以，就像你天然说话时运用的言语相同，尽量天然地说话。
Yes, your focus is on your language, vocabulary, and grammar, but you want to do it in a very natural way not an artificial way. One of the biggest problems many students have is when it comes into an exam, they go into an exam mode.
是的，你的留心力是在你的言语、词汇和语法上，可是你想以一种非常天然的方法来做，而不是一种人工的方法。许多学生面临的最大疑问之一是，当初步考试时，他们会进入考试方法。
It's becoming a bit of a robot, right? "So, what do you do?"
他们会初步机器人方法。“你做啥作业？”
"Oh, I am a teacher. I have been teaching for 10 years now. I really enjoy it. It is a, it is a really good job, Di DiDiDi. . ."
“噢，我是一名教师。我现已教育十年了。我真的很喜爱这份作业，这是一份极好的作业，滴滴滴滴滴。”
And you become a little bit robotic. Now, if you were speaking to a friend: "Well, so what do you do?"
然后你就变得有点像机器人。假定你和一个兄弟说话：“那么，你是做啥的呢？”
"I'm a teacher actually. Yeah, I've been teaching for around 10 years. It's a pretty good job. Yeah, I kind of enjoy it."
“其实我是一名教师。嗯，我现已教育十年了。这是一份极好的作业，我很喜爱这份作业。”
So, you want to be getting that feeling of naturalness when you speak. Yes, remember, some nice vocabulary but be natural.
所以，当你说话的时分，你要有一种天然的感触。是的，记住，词汇要高档一些，但要说得天然。
It sounds like an advert for perfume or an advert for soap. Let's go on to the next tip.
听起来像是香水广告或番笕广告。咱们看看下一个技巧。
The last tip, last but not least, is a bit strange, and I know you're gonna think I'm nuts, right, and I'm crazy. But tip number 10 is enjoy the test.
最终一招有点新鲜，我晓得你会认为我疯了，对吧，我是疯了。第十招就是享受考试。
Are you crazy? Enjoy the test? It's the most nerve-wracking, horrible experience ever.
你疯了吗？享受考试？这是有史以来最伤脑筋、最可怕的阅历。
Well, exactly, and that's the problem. Because you think it is, it probably will be.
嗯，没错，这就是疑问地址。因为你认为它是，它可以就是。
But if you think you're gonna enjoy the test, remember that little smile before you work at walk in the room?
All of that enjoying your experience there whilst still being alert and awake and producing your best language.
但假定你认为你会享受这次考试，还记住你在走进考场前的那个浅笑吗？一切这悉数都在享受你在那里的阅历，一起坚持警惕和清醒，并说出你最佳的言语。
Enjoy the test, it will change your behaviour, it will change what's going on up here, something's going on up here for the better.
If you can, try and enjoy the test, and it really really does work, believe me, have a go and see.
享受这个查验吧，它会改动你的行为，它会改动这儿发生的悉数，这儿发生的作业会变得非常好。假定可以的话，试着享受这个查验，它真的很管用，信赖我，试试看吧。
