雅思口语考试，这些你
第 一次参加考试的烤鸭尤其需要了解一下，提前做好准备，避免踩中雷区~
1.how is my performance assessed?
口试官的评分标准是什么?
examiners will evaluate your performance according to 4 criteria namely fluency and coherence (fc), lexical resource (lr), grammatical range and accuracy (gra) and pronunciation (p).
口试官会依4个部分评分：流畅性及连贯性(fc)、词汇量(la)、语法运用范围与其正确性(gra)以及发音(p)。
2.what is the most important criterion in the speaking test? is it grammar?
口语测试中重要的是语法吗?
no. the 4 criteria are weighted equally at 25% each. the examiners will give a result for each criterion and then work out the average of the 4 scores which equates to an overall speaking score. if you get 6 for fc, 5 for lr, 5 for gra and 6 for p, then you will receive 5.5 overall for speaking,
不是。4个评分标准同等重要，各占25%。口试官会针对这4个部分分别评分，然后计算出1个平均分数;若你在fc拿到6分、lr和gra都拿到5分、p拿到6分，那你会拿到总分5.5分。
3.will i lose points if the examiner disagrees with my opinion?
如果口试官不认同我的意见，我会被扣分吗?
no. you are judged on your english, not your opinions. there is no right or wrong opinion.
不会。口试的评分标准是你的英文能力，而非意见，更无论对错了。
4.how is my performance assessed?
我不是个有主见的人，这样也可以拿到吗?
yes. as long as you keep talking and use a wide range of english, you can get a high score as this is not an iq test. boring or obvious opinions are fine if you can produce a wide and accurate range of language when expressing them.
当然可以。只要你持续不断地用正确的英文来表达自己的想法，即可得到，即使是乏味的意见也没关系，因为这并不是智力测验。
5. i have a north american accent, is that ok?
我有美国口音，这样可以吗?
yes. american english is not penalised in any part of the test whether it be pronunciation or spelling.
可以。美国口音或拼写并不会影响评分。
6.how is my performance assessed?
我可以问口试官会给我几分吗?
no. you will receive your ielts result within 2 weeks but not on the day.
不行。ielts的成绩会在测试后2个星期之内收到。
7.what happens if i disagree with the result i was given?
如果我对口试成绩有疑问怎么办?
you may ask the ielts test centre to arrange another ielts examiner to reevaluate your speaking. this is possible as all interviews are recorded. you may incur an extra expense depending on whether your score changes or not.
口试的部分都有录音，故可要求考试中心重新评估口试的成绩。若口试成绩经过复议后并没有更改，你须支付额外的复议费;反之，则不必支付。
8.how is my performance assessed?
在自己的参加口试会比在其他好吗?
in your home country is often thought to be the best place to do the speaking test. however, do keep in mind that all examiners receive exactly the same training around the world which is moderated by a central body. the only justification for why it may be better to do the test in your home country is that you may score higher in pronunciation as it is seen as more subjective; examiners in your home country will be used to the chinese accent whereas those in england may not.
在自己的考试通常被认为是 好的。然而请记住，全世界所有的ielts口试官接受的都是相同的训练。在自己较好的唯 一理由，就是在发音部分会较占优势，例如在中国的口试官势必比较习惯考生有中国的口音。
9.is there anything i can do if 1 don't understand a question?
假如我听不懂口试官的问题，该怎么办?
yes. if you don't understand you may ask the examiner to repeat the question at any time during the interview. however, if after repeating you still don't understand, only in part 3 may you ask the examiner to explain or rephrase a question. in part 1 the examiner will simply move on to the next question.
若你不明白间题，可以请口试官再叙述一次。但如果口试官重复后，你还是不理解，只有在part 3时你才可以请口试官换个说法让你明白问题;在口试的part 1，口试官会略过该问题而直接进行下一个提问。
