雅思口语提分障碍：高频语法错误例释

相信许多备考雅思的同学都知道，语法错误问题是口语里的很头疼的一个问题，口语表达不同于写作，许多在写作不容易出现的语法错误在口语中却会频繁出现，究其原因是因为口语表达更注重的是讲话时的瞬间的“感觉”，换言之，这是一种靠时间和练习量积累的语感直觉。

那么考生在考试中通常都会高频地出现什么类型的错误呢？通常来说以下几类语法错误要注意警惕：

1、时态

时态问题可以说是最高频的错误之一，而就时态来说，错的最多的却是过去式这种最简单的时态变化。例如在part2描述题中，通常考生会通过许多过去的例子／经历来回应， 然而很多同学却用错用整篇现在时或一会现在时一会过去时，显得很凌乱。在问答题中也时有出现，例如某同学对下面这个雅思口语问题的回答，大家对比体会一下：

问：when was the last time you sent flowers to others?

答：let me think, actually a few months ago, one of my best friends invite (invited) me to join his graduation ceremony, you know, it’s a tradition to give people flowers on this occasion, so i buy (bought) some sunflowers and give (gave) it to him, because i hope (hoped) his future will(would) be as bright as the sun.

2、代词／主语误用

这个是一个比较高频的情况，一般也多在口语中出现，例如：he，she，it, they, that, those, this, these.

大家需要注意关注几个角度：1.性别？ 2. 人／物  3. 单数还是复数？

例如考官问： who is your favorite family member?

考生答：  i believe my favorite family member must be my mother, because i think he(she) is really a nice person, and he (she) is good at cooking.

又例如考生在罗列了两个或以上理由的时候，作结论却说:  this is the reason why…( these are the reasons why…)

3、主谓一致

关于主谓一致，具体点来说，错的比较多的应该是“第三人称单数”这个角度了。大家可以看看下面这个雅思口语问答体会一下：

问： Do you think primary school students should have music classes?

答： personally, i think it depend (depends) on students’ personal interest. if a student do not (doesn’t) like it, …., but if a student do (does) like music, i believe ….;

4、动词／介词搭配

这个方面需要在平时学英文单词的时候多积累不同单词的用法。

例如：can you tell me a famous person you like?

答：…. , i really like him because i think he can always persist on his dream. ( persist的用法： persist with sth /   persist in (doing) sth)

my parents are very strict to me  ( strict的用法： be strict with somebody)

5、词性

说出来之前，结合句子分析一下，究竟需要的是 动词，名词，形容词，还是副词？

以上几种容易混淆误用

例如：我相信有一天我会成功的！

错误：I believe one day i will success ！

正确：I believe one day I will succeed!; / I believe one dayI will become successful !  ;  / I believe one day I will achieve success!

又例如：

I believe honest (honesty) is very important in friendship

写在最后： 口语中之所以高频出现语法问题，其实很多时候并不是因为不懂语法的规则，而是因为没有养成对应规则的习惯，很多同学缺乏这种意识／习惯，而习惯只能通过训练改变，建议考生可以准备一个小本子，练习过程中给自己录音，然后用笔记本记录下各种语法错误频率，作为对自己的提醒和警示，随着练习的增多，习惯一定会慢慢得到改变。
