口语高分捷径、只有5分怎么办?

ohabby1984:Attention,a quick way to get hign score!
a teacher of training centre(he used to be the examiner of IELTS) told us that we can get high score(over 6`5) easily through using SLANGS and IDIOMS.

Don't try to use very long and difficuls words in order to impress the examiner.It won't work at all. Long and difficult words make this guy  bookish.

John, is that right?Do u agree with what the teacher said? Keep practising ur english in 1-2 months.Non-stop.6`5 is not far from us.

John :I agree with the following sentence: " Don't try to use very long and difficult words in order to impress the examiner."

I think it's misleading, however, to say that using "idioms" and "slang" will help you get a high score on the exam.  In fact, sometimes students try to use to many idioms and end up looking foolish.  It's important to understand the proper colloquial usage of words, but it's more important that you use English that YOU are comfortable with to express your ideas. That's how you get a high score.

(By the way: If your friend was a former examiner, he or she would know that it's impossible to get a 6.5 on the IELTS Speaking Test.  )

上善若水:Hi John,I've taken the 29 Feb interview, and I thought it was OK except one thing: since it was the first time I took the interview and the assistant teacher didn't guide m of the procedure, I took my bag to the interviewer. She felt surprise at my behavior! and told m put the bag downstairs-of course, that resulted in a minute or two time waste. I apologized for that and all interview was pretty good, and when we said goodbye, she smiled to remind m of not forgetting my bag. But tell m John, do u think that's possible she would take some points off coz of that? Look forward to ur reply and thank u very much!

John:Don't worry so much!  The interviewer will not take off points in this situation.  In fact, I bet the interviewer was glad to have an extra minute or two of rest between interviews!

心残游记0:John,here is the writting test,task 2

topic:along with social development,a variety fo languages and cultures are losing seriously.plz discuss the reasons and give your suggestions.

i took this topic to my australian teacher,he said it didn't make sense.it shoud change"losing seriously"into"being lost".and he gave me only one reason--progress.for intance,internet,economics,jobs,foreign companies come and so on.and then i told him it is just one reason,i can't write only one reason in the writting test.i wanna more reasons.and then,he told me it was the main reason,and he didn't know other reasons.so as a foreigner,i would like to know how do u think about this topic and what are ur reasons.oh,i also told him maybe tourism is one of the reasons.but he said no.coz toursits wanna see something traditional,not modern.maybe he is right,but i still think tourism is a reason,just like every coin has two sides.i can talk something about how tourism change our languages and cultures.am i right??although that's not a oral test question,i want to know ur opinion.i hope i don't bother u.thanks a lot!!

p.s:i had an imitated interview this morning,and the foreigh teacher give me 6.5 for my overall score.does it mean i can gain this score in the real test??

and one more question is our oral test teacher(of course she is Chinese)told us,when we wanna talk something,let the interviewer know u have a good thinking.i mean we need to talk something logically.for example,i need to say "i will tell u three reasons.first of all......second......furthermore....."is it right???or i can talk to interviewer without this sequence???

John:Your Australian teacher was correct that the question should say "being lost" instead of "losing seriously".  In general, the topic is phrased in a strange way.

I think that both you and your teacher are right in this case.  In fact, you could write an entire essay about how progress has influenced language and culture.  You say that it's just one reason, but then you go on to list several reasons: the internet, economics, jobs, foreign companies.  These individual factors can be each be used as a reason.  You're right, though, that you could also write about tourism as a reason.

In regards to your question about your model interview, no, you can't get a 6.5 on the real test.  Only whole band scores are given for the Speaking Test, so you would get either a 6 or a 7.

As for your final question, yes, it's true that you should have a logical flow to your speech and reasoning in the interviewer.  Sometimes it's a good idea to list several reasons, as you suggested.

I hope I've answered your questions!  Let me know if there is anything you're still confused about, and I'll try to get back to you sooner this time. :)

飘漂依然:我考了两次雅思,口语都是5。可我同学中有的口语不怎么强的都是6呀。我两次还都自我感觉良好呢!上过辅导班,有外国朋友,他们都说我的口语不错呀!不过我一次上午最后一个,一次下午第一个,是不是时间不好?我该怎么办呢?哪位大仙帮忙指路呀? 

John:First of all, rather than asking your foreign friends how good your English is, ask them it which specific ways it could be better.  Having spent time talking to you, I'm sure they could easily tell you some specific ways in which you could improve.

As far as the timing of your test, it really shouldn't matter.  I'd focus on looking for specific ways to improve your spoken English rather than fretting about the little testing details. :)

风仙子999:how can I answer this question
speaking question :what will u notice when u take photo to old man ,i really did not kown how do i answer this question? please tell me ,thank you .

John:I think you mean, "What do you notice when you take a photo of an old man?"

Actually, ohabby's answer is a good one.  One thing you might notice when you take a photo of an old man is his wrinkles, and the wrinkles might lead you to think about the many experiences he's had in his lifetime.

But really, what do YOU notice when you take a picture of an old man?  Think about it on your own. :)

smallks:I have confused about the topics  song and movie.i have taken apart in ielts 3 months ago .the examiner asked me about a song i like best. i found it hard to describe .i knew how to say it ,i never felt lacking materials to say .but the main question seems to be how to say it accurately and simply.i used to say a foreign song ,named "that is why you go away ,but the examiner doubted, she asked me "is it really you favourite  song ??"i soon became extremely strained .(i always choke uo in the real crucial situation .)so this time ,(i would take ielts in 3.13.)i would say a chinese song .i think the topic movie is similar.

so ,sir ,please!please!could you give me some suggestions about this sort of question??

John:It doesn't matter whether you chose a Chinese song or a for
