托?？谡Z_能和外國人“無障礙交流”，口語一定能拿高分嗎
能和老外“無障礙交流”的這個標準其實非常模糊，如果我們用托?？谡Z考試的標準來衡量，許多自認為可以和老外“無障礙溝通”的同學，是拿不到單科≥23分成績的(托福口語單科滿分30，中國考生此項均分18分)。
托?？谡Z|能和外國人“無障礙交流”，口語一定能拿高分嗎?
口語的提高，個人認為分為兩個部分:1. 表達自然性的提高2.交流能力的提高。表達自然性的意思是語音語調等看似基礎，但對我們日后表達的自信，流暢表達觀點的能力，溝通效率等非常重要的必須能力。就好像想要順暢地開高速路，得先通過小路、大路的駕照考試練習一樣，沒有基礎保障的實踐，就容易漏洞百出，上陣心慌。
而我認為我們很多人，對于“交流能力”的理解是有誤區(qū)的：我們覺得能“聽懂”老外的話并和對方進行對話，就代表自己有不錯的交流能力了。而事實上，我相信絕大部分同學應該并不具備和老外像本國人一樣自然、自信、漂亮地進行生活日常對話，及對于某些如教育、經(jīng)濟、哲學、政治等話題深入溝通、高效交換意見的能力。
換句話說，如果我們用托?？谡Z考試的標準來衡量，許多自認為可以和老外“無障礙溝通”的同學，是拿不到單科≥23分成績的(托?？谡Z單科滿分30，中國考生此項均分18分)。
而其實托福口語的高分標準(≥27)很簡單：
說的順，幾乎沒有不自然的卡頓、磕巴;
語言沒有很多語法錯誤，內容表達效率高一些;
語音語調整體比較自然，發(fā)音、語調如果很地道，會有很不錯的分數(shù)加成。
口語好的標準，自然是仁者見仁智者見智的，但是在我聽了太多那些覺得和老外“溝通無障礙”但卻托?？谡Z分數(shù)非常一般的同學的抱怨，我覺得還是有必要解釋一下“無障礙溝通”和“不錯口語水平”之間的區(qū)別。
這里的邏輯不能錯：
一個托福口語≥27分，表達能力強，交流能力佳，語音語調地道的人，是可以和老外“無障礙交流”的。
但卻不能說：一個和老外經(jīng)常說話，感覺可以和他們“無障礙交流”的人，就肯定表達能力強，交流能力佳，語音語調地道，且托?？谡Z鐵定≥27分。
能和老外“無障礙交流”的這個標準其實非常模糊，我們換個角度思考一下，如果有很多老外，把和你說話當成練習中文的機會，在你時間有限又不太想打消對方積極性的情況下，你是不是不會頻繁指出對方發(fā)音、語法、意思方面的錯誤? 同時，你也不太可能和對方進行非常深入話題的討論，因為往往交換意見的交流會變成你單方面的中文課堂…。
我們在相對更為舒適的Conversation(對話、交流)情境下說英文，往往會對自己的真實語言水平有不太直觀的評價。因為談話內容往往重復性高、語言簡單，同時也沒有規(guī)定時間讓你必須準確、自然地說清楚你的個人觀點這種比較嚴苛要求的束縛，“無障礙交流”事實上對于很多人都是觸手可得的。
而考試的分數(shù)取決于整體，根植于細節(jié)。整體的流暢性，如果沒有正確的發(fā)音、語法、表達積累的輔助，也無從談起。
所以，我們應該怎么做?
我列出在我看來一天之中可以被利用起來的“垃圾”時間段:
- 早晨醒來沒有立刻起身洗漱習慣，先看一會手機的時間
- 洗漱、上廁所的時間
- 上、下學/班路上坐公車或者坐地鐵或者開車的時間
- 上學、上班期間，學習或者工作間隙的時間
- 吃午飯&晚飯的時間
- 吃完飯后的放松時間
- 睡前的一段無法立即入睡，看手機的時間
我們可以計算一下，回憶一下你近期起床、洗漱、通勤、吃飯、洗澡和睡覺的每日狀態(tài)，計算一下自己的每日“垃圾”時間時長，一般都會≥3h，事實上，可能你也會比較驚訝于你每天“浪費”掉的時間竟然如此多。對于學習而言，其實只需要利用其中的一小部分，長此以往便可以取得不錯的效果。
連時間都不愿付出就想收獲成長，念念不忘，也無回響 …
