Practise saying “I don’t know” 练习说“I don’t know”
Another reason why some candidates go wrong in the exam is that they feel they have to give a complete answer to very question and they think of IELTS as some academic test. It isn’t. It’s simply a test of your language. In parts 1 and 3, you may well be asked questions that you have very little to say about. That’s not a problem, there’s always another question coming. The big mistake is to try and give a full answer when you have nothing to say. What happens is that your language becomes confused and so do you, with the result that things get and worse and worse.
很多考生误以为雅思是学术测试。恰恰相反,这只是语言测试而已,第一和第三部分你可能被问到说不了什么的问题,有什么关系?之后还有问题。千万别在你没话可说的情况下试图整出和完整答案,弄糊涂了考官会让你万劫不复。
All you need to do is say you don’t know and explain why and then wait for the next question. This may take a little practice. You want to build a set of phrases such as:
其实你也没必要说你不知道然后解释理由,你可以模仿下面的例子:
Q. What colour is your favourite room and why did you choose that colour?
A. I’m not sure what to say about that. It’s not a question I’ve ever thought about before. I suppose yellow is just my favourite colour and so I painted my room yellow?
