精华讲义-外国语学校面试(全)

Step1. 了解面试中朗读的要求 一、朗读的考情分析

朗读短文主要考察学生的语音语调，短文理解和口语表达能力。历年试题中朗读的短文字数在70～110左右，题材较广，问题为4个左右。

朗读时，同学们应注意语速适中,不要过快,以至于单词发音不清楚，也不要过慢。连贯地朗读，语音清晰，语调优美，充满情感。回答问题时，先思考一下，不要急于给出答案。

分析历年朗读材料考题，可以发现，对于人物或事物的议论在面试题中占有稳定的席位。无论阅读材料怎么变，所出的问题总有那么一道需要同学们表达自己的观点。从考官的角度来看，这类题目一来可以看出学生是否读懂材料，是对英语水平的检测；二来通过具体的回答内容可以考查到学生的逻辑思维和语言组织能力以及一些价值判断，一举两得。 二、朗读短文失分点

1、单词读音不标准。

2、没有掌握连读等技巧，朗读不流畅。

3、语调平淡，把文章读得没有高低起伏，没有抑扬顿挫，没有情感。 4、语速过快或过慢。

6、一听完问题，没有想好，就马上作答，以致于思绪混乱，回答的乱七八糟。 7、表达自己观点时，句式单一，且内容冗长、啰嗦。 Step2:朗读短文备考建议

小升初的英语口语面试，考的是临场的应变能力和反应速度。我们可以从以下几个方面来加强平时的训练，冲刺高分。

一、语音语调要正确

大部分学生在朗读文章时，单词的发音都很正确，基本不成问题。但是在语调方面把握得好就不容易了，不少同学把文章读得如同凉白开一样平淡，没有高低起伏，没有抑扬顿挫，没有情感浸润，而这些正是朗读部分考查的重要标准。

要想有所提高，最好的办法是跟着录音走，一个句子里哪里要重读或是升调，哪里要轻读或是降调，听录音找差距，然后尽量地模仿，在朗读时适当地加上一些感情色彩，如高兴、悲伤、快乐、忧愁等情感变化，相信一定会给面试官留下深刻的印象。

二、语速要适中

文章的内容其实很简单，所以不少同学就不知不觉地提高了语速，忽略了句子之间以及段落之间的停顿，顾不上理解文章，最终导致在下一部分时回答不上问题。因此，同学们一定要注意：适当放缓语速，注意句子和段落之间的停顿，这不仅在朗读上显得有松有紧，而且更重要的是能够加强对文章的理解，以免在回答问题环节丢分。另外还有一个好处，就是能够多扫几眼后面跟着的单词，比如在读“The earliest……”这个句子时，要留意到“the”的发音要改变，但是如果读得太快，则可能忽略这一点，口语模拟时就有同学中招了。

三、万一遇到„新单词‟不会读该怎么办？

读文章时如果碰到了不会读的新单词，这个时候千万不要慌张，可以停下来向考官询问，“Sorry, I don‟t know how to read this word.”保证自己口语面试全过程的纯英文表达，这也是向面试官展示自己认真专注的另一面，一般考官都会告诉你这个单词的发音，毕竟这不是在考你的词汇量，碰到不认识的单词很正常，你所要做的就是把会读的部分读好就足够了。

四、回答问题要简洁

在读完文章后，回答问题应该尽量简洁、准确、肯定。在充足的时间内，可以用简单的长句来回答，即“主语+谓语+宾语”结构，反之则可以用短语来简洁回答，针对相应的when, what, where, how, why部分，准确定位，给出正确答案。

【真题一】

2012年广州外国语学校面试中，考官要求学生谈谈四大名著中最喜欢的人物。

【真题解析】这道题不仅考学生的英语表达能力，还间接地考察了学生对中国古典文学的认识。首先要想好四大名著分别是什么，然后从中选择一个自己认为最有特色的，同时自己较为熟悉的人物进行表述。

【真题指导】例如可选择《红楼梦》中的史湘云，因为湘云性格热情豪爽、心直口快。学生可以作如下回答:“Among all the characters from the

fourmasterpieces, Shi Xiangyun from The Dream of Red Mansions is myfavourite, because she always speaks her mind and is warmed-hearted toeveryone.”还可以用具体的事例来论证自己的观点，例如: “Unlike Lin Daiyu and Xue Baochai, Xiangyun treats everybody as equal.Even though she was born nobility, she would never mind hanging out with hermaids. She sometimes fights for their justice.”

【举一反三】同类的题目还可以变成“从自己最喜欢的电影中谈谈最喜欢的角色”。面对此类考题，学生可先亮出自己的观点，即“My favourite character is XXX, because he/she is verybrave/kind-hearted/…”,也可以说“Ilike XXX best, because he/she is very brave/kind-hearted/…”然后再例举出书中或者电影中的具体情节作为支撑。

【批注】建议同学们在人物选择时，尽量避免选择负面人物，如《红楼梦》中的薛蟠，《西游记》中的白骨精等。这些人物虽然会让考官觉得与众不同，但是我们不鼓励为追求与众不同而传递负能量。 【真题二】

2012年天河外国语学校面试真题是“谈谈你最喜爱的老师”。 2013年关于人物的主题有“谈谈你之前面试的同班同学的优缺点”。

【真题解析】这个题材是学生们熟悉的生活中的老师，面对这个话题学生可以说很多内容，但也容易泛泛而谈。考生可以从外貌性格开始描述，然后通过与人物之间发生的事情，以小见大，说明你喜爱这位老师的原因。

【真题指导】1.亮出观点：My（科目）teacher is my favoriteteacher. 也可以My favorite teacher is XXX, he/she teachesme （科目）。

2. 回忆描述： She/he has…hair, big eyes…如果是2013的题目谈到同学的优缺点，就可以例举一两句话说明他的趣事或者糗事。He is always late for school…。

3. 总结陈词：We all like Mrs/Ms…She/he is my favorite teacher. 总结到点即可。

【举一反三】谈谈你的父母也是热门话题，引向亲情表达对父母的爱。同样，可以从生活实例出发，以小见大，体现父母对自己无微不至的爱，最后表达自己日后报答父母的决心，给考官留下深刻印象！

【真题三】

天河外国语学校2012年面试真题“介绍一个节日”。

【真题解析】中外节日有很多，最好选择自己熟悉的，亲身经历过的。例如春节或者圣诞都是同学们在广州会感受到浓郁气氛的。当然，如果你经历过傣族的泼水节，的确能让考官眼前一亮。

【真题指导】1．亮出观点：例如 I am going to talk about the Spring Festival…或者What I want to talkabout is … 同学们要学会用自己已会的词汇来替代自己表达不出来的内容。例如，想用“印象深刻”但是到了嘴边却不知道怎么说？那你可以选用interesting等形容词来代替，还可加上最高级变成the most… 2．描述特点：描述节日里典型的装饰，例如商场的圣诞树。在圣诞节期间，去、的小朋友们，一定会被那里的圣诞气氛深深吸引。Last Christmas, I saw an enormous chocolate tree in front of theshopping mall! How delicious! 沉浸在美好回忆的时候动词记得用过去式哦！如果说元宵节，那可说热闹的灯谜会，点出中国人必吃的食物，这就考查同学们对生活点滴的词汇积累了。

【举一反三】如果单纯的例举We can buy a lot offood/thing, we can get together to play games or watch TV之类的，就很容易雷同无新意，而且还会陷入流水账中不可自拔；描述食物如汤圆glue dumpling时，点到即止，考官考察的是逻辑思路而不是细枝末节。 Step3: 练习

1. 练习题一：谈谈“自己最喜欢的运动”。

【题目解析】在回答此类题目时，简单平实的回答不会给考官留下太多印象。考生可以从更深层次的角度挖掘“why”这部分，比如跟自己的生活联系在一起，阐释这项爱好对你的生活有怎样的影响。此外，考生还可以谈谈自己是如何进行这项运动的，即“HOW”。

【练习指导】同学们可根据自己的实际情况作答。例如, “I like playing basketball most.” 在回答“是什么(WHAT)”之后，一定还要补充“为什么(WHY)”，例如: “Playing basketball does not only make mestronger, it also makes me feel energetic, especially in a basketball match.From each match, I learn that there is a basket and all I need to do is totarget it. It helps me in my study too. Every

semester, I set a goal andI would try my best to achieve it.” 还有“HOW”的表述，比如, “I play basketball every day after school. I‟meven an MVP in the school team.”

2. 练习题二：谈谈自己知道的西方节日，并详细介绍其中一个。

【题目解析】典型的西方节日有：Valentine‟s Day, April Fool‟s Day, Ester, Halloween,Thanksgiving, Christmas等等。同学们可选择自己最为熟悉的节日进行介绍。介绍的内容应包括什么时候庆祝(WHEN)、谁在庆祝(WHO)、在哪里庆祝(WHERE)、为什么庆祝(WHY)、以及怎样庆祝(HOW)。

【练习指导】We celebrate Christmas on December 25every year. It is one of the most important festivals inAmerica, Europeand other part of the world. People celebrate it in memory of Jesus Christ, theson of the God, because he was born on December 25.”在介绍“HOW”这部分可以更详细些，这样会突出重点。例如平安夜(Christmas Eve)家人会一起装扮圣诞树(Christmas tree)，孩子们会把袜子挂在床头，以便圣诞老人(Santa Claus)投送礼物，而父母则会在孩子熟睡以后悄悄扮成“圣诞老人”把礼物放入孩子的袜子中。在饮食方面，全家人会吃大餐（big meal）。

【精华讲义-3】外国语学校面试之问答题 Step1. 问答题技巧

1．回答问句应简洁。

例如：when did you get up this morning? At seven o‟clock. 如果完整回答很多学生可能会这样答：I get up at seven o‟clock this morning. 容易在时态上出错。

2．当对自己的回答不满意时，可以改一次答案，说SORRY后再重新回答，老师评分以第二次的答案为准。

Step2:练习

【精华讲义-4】外国语学校面试之自我介绍 知识点1：自我介绍概况

自我介绍是几乎所有外国语学校面试的首选题型和必答题目，它可以让面试官了解孩子的基本情况，也能通过自我介绍看出孩子的英语功底以及沟通表达能力。 知识点2：自我介绍的题型

自我介绍一般分为两部分：用英语进行2-3分钟的自我介绍；回答老师介绍中的问题。

1、用英语自我介绍

要求学生介绍自己，或者介绍自己的父母。介绍父母的时候有可能让学生随便发挥，也可能要求孩子用一个或几个词来形容父母，并给出解释。

2．即兴提问

根据孩子的自我介绍做进一步“追问”，由于这个是因人而异的，因此内容和形式都不固定，非常灵活。

比如孩子说自己喜欢音乐，面试官就可能和他聊聊他喜欢的音乐类型，或者近来最红火的一场演唱会；又如孩子奥数突出，面试官可能就会顺水推舟地接着开始问关于奥数学习的问题。

知识点3：自我介绍的指令

一般进行自我介绍的指令说法如下：

1.Would you please tell us something about you? 2.Could you please introduce yourself briefly? 3.Would you please do some self-introduction?

知识点4：介绍的内容

1.打招呼：学生应在开始介绍自己的时候跟主考官进行礼貌性的打招呼，给主考官留下好影响。

2.亮点开头句：外国人在很多比较正式的场合都会来一句“感谢…给我这个机会在此…”同样，在面试过程中，如果同学们能在打完招呼之后紧接一句“It's my honorto be here to introduce myself.”是给自己很加分的。因为这不仅符合外国人的表达习惯，也会显得学生很有礼貌，增加老师对你的好感。

3.中英文名字：每个人说自己的名字当然是得心应手，从而导致在这一部分很多学生讲的很快，甚至说的含糊不清。但要知道，老师是第一次听你的名字。所以建议大家在说名字的时候稍微放慢语速，表达清楚。对于一些名字比较特别或者有特殊含义的小朋友，可以这一部分多说一些。

比如我叫方睿，我会说：“My Chinese name is FangRui. My mother gave me this name because Rui stands for smart, and she hopes meto be clever. My

English name is Ray, I chose this as my name because it hasthe same pronunciation with my Chinese one.”

4.报考原因：一定要说明为什么要报考该校。这一点不要泛泛而谈说我喜欢这个学校之类的。

比如可以说“I‟ve heard thatthis school is very good at English teaching and I like English very much. Ihope I can improve my English at this school.”之类的。 5.兴趣爱好：也可以讲讲一些特长，比如篮球，舞蹈，乐器。当然这里也不是说一句话“I‟m good at dancing”就完了，若参加过一些比赛拿过一些名次最好就讲出来，或者参加过什么演出，进过校队之类的。让你的特长更有说服力。

如：面试过程中有同学说自己很喜欢足球，最喜欢的足球明星是梅西，然后聊了一些关于梅西的东西。这不仅可以表现出该学生除了学习之余德智体也有全面的发展，这些真实具体的内容也会让老师对该学生印象深刻。而干巴巴的几句“I like English, I like dancing”则会稍显英语功力和口头表达能力不行。

6、家庭，性格，习惯：谈论家庭的内容主要是家庭人员数，家庭成员等，性格和习惯的内容最重要的一点就是贴近真实，让老师更了解你。注意一些不太好的习惯，比如很爱打游戏，不爱做作业的，学生们尽量不要谈及。

7. 结尾：最后结尾加上一句“That‟s all about me. Thank you for your listening.”让你的礼貌有头有尾。有些同学就是在说完了然后直接停顿，老师就不知道是你说完了呢还是你忘词了。所以这个时候说一个如上句的结语很重要。

知识点5：自我介绍高分句型

在小升初面试中，如果学生能以一个与众不同的开头和一个精彩的结尾来充实自己的演讲和自我介绍，给面试老师一个好印象，那么学生可能会因此得到较好的分数。

下面总结一些比较常用的自我介绍典型句型，学生可以参考：

1 开头总结式

- the subject of my presentation is... - I shall be speaking today about...\" - My presentation concerns...

- Today we are here to give a speech on...

- Today we are here to talk about...Before we start, I'd like you meetme... - Before i start our presentation, let's take a brief look at the agenda... - I shall be offering a brief analysis of...

- Thank you for giving me the opportunity to tell you about me...

2 引起听众的兴趣

- I'm going to be speaking about something that is vitally important to allof us. - My presentation will help solve a problem that has puzzled people foryears... - At the end of this presentation you will understand why this company hasbeen so successful for so long...;

- I am going to be talking about a product that could double your profitmargins...

- the next ten minutes will change your attitude to sales and marketing... - Over the next ten minutes you are going to hear about something that willchange the way your companies operate...

- By the end of this presentation you will know all there is to knowabout...

3 结束语：

-In conclusion, I'd like to... -I'd like to finish by... -Finally...

-By way of conclusion...

-I hope I have made myself understood

-I hope this has given you some idea/clear idea/an outline of... -Let me end by saying thanks. -That, then was all I had to say on me

-I hope I've managed to give you a clearer picture of me. -Thank you for your listening.

批注：自我介绍是比较容易得分的一项，学生可以在考试前充分的准备，但是需要注意的是：自我介绍中切记结合自己的性格特点，这样才能给考官留下深刻印象。其次，尽量使用短句，如果句子太长，也可以拆分成短句控制在5句话左右，或者准备十句话，分成两部分。如果老师给的时间长，就十句话都说了，给的时间短，就只说重要的5句。记住四个字：特色，简短。

二、对于一些学科知识的提问。

如让背诵一段英语课文。课内的或者课外所学的。让用英文说一段话，可能是介绍下你的老师或者父母，或者身边的其他事物等等。

所以，面试前可以准备背好两篇较熟悉的课内和课外的文章，以及介绍父母、老师等的几句话短文。

三、对个人兴趣爱好的介绍。

在面试中，面试老师还可能问到兴趣爱好。

1、面对这个问题，学生可以在回答了自己的兴趣爱好之后，列举相关的例子来证明。如：“Ilike sports. I like playing football best.”

2. 另外还需要在例子后说明喜欢的原因，以充实自己的演讲。

四、当问到与班上同学之间的关系时。

面试的时候经常会出现这样的问题：“你班上有没有比你优秀的同学，你怎么看待他们，你和他们关系处理得好吗?”。

1、面对这样的问题，首先，概述优秀同学的典型事迹，优秀的原因，值得学习的地方。

2.其次，阐述和他们在一起的时候，学到的好品质，好学习方法，对你的学习或人格的帮助和提升。

五、进入中学后，你愿意当班干部吗?

这个问题，其实是对孩子团队合作能力，心理素质，交际应变能力还有语言表达能力，自信心等各方面能力的一种考察。

所以，在面试时，一般做肯定回答，然后说明原因，以及说明通过这样能获得的收获，对班级对同学的好处等等，随机应变，实事求是。

六、对自己优点确定的认识。

1.原则：实事求是。

2.优点：自身与学习有关的的优点即可。

3.缺点：列举一两条缺点，并说明今后的改正或提高措施。

七、你有什么理想。

理想指的是你进入这所学校后的理想。

所以，回答这个问题的时候，我们可以回答，我要考入某所高中等等,如果老师继续追问的话，再说考入一所好的大学等等，逐级由近至远的说，如果老师没问，尽量少说。

八、家庭对你的影响。

很多学校面试的时候也都会问到学生关于家庭方面的问题，因为一个好的家庭环境，对孩子的健康成长也是很重要的。如：“你认为你的爸爸和妈妈是一个什么样的人，他们对你有什么样的影响?”

以下两点作为参考话题，在面试时可只谈及一点：

1.回答时可以结合父母的职业，性格特点简单分析，对小孩的教育模式特点（民主型、放任型、管教型，溺爱型）进行简单的阐述。

2.还有就是父母的成长与成功经历，可以简单描述。重点在对孩子的影响，可以通过事例说明，可以是生活上的照顾，学习上的帮助，更重要的是精神上的教育，品德上的言传身教等等。

知识点2:即兴回答开头的高分句型

在自我介绍后可能会接受考官的提问。考官一般会问：May I ask yousome questions?或者I want to ask you some questions, ok?

这个时候学生也可以适当发挥一些，以达到和别人不同，给考官留下深刻印象的目的。

所以可以这样回答：

-I will bepleased to answer any questions.-

-If you have any questions, I will be pleased toanswer them. I will be coming to that point in a minute. -Yes, that's a very good point. 典型例题：

What will the weather be like tomorrow? 明天天气怎样? How‟s the weather in Beijingin summer? 夏天北京天气怎样? What‟s the weather like in Londonin winter? 伦敦冬天天气怎样? Is the weather always like this? 天气老是这样吗? Is it always as hot (cold) as this? 天气总是这样热(冷)吗?

Step5：精讲

1.What is the weather like out there? 外面的天气如何?

要问别人外面的天气如何, 最简单的问法就是,\"What's the weather like out there?\" 或是我们可以用一个很简单的 it 来代表天气, 像是 \"What's it like outthere?\" 这样讲也可以. 还有要是你不喜欢用 What 来作问句, 你也可以简单地说, \"How is the weather out there?\"

但是如果我们想问别人未来的某一个时间会不会出太阳或是会不会下雨, 例如我想问人家星期一会下雨吗?像这种情况我们就可以说,\"Is it supposed to rain on Monday?\" 这里用到了一个 be suppose to 的片语, 这种是老美最喜欢的. 再比方说吧, 如果我们假设明天有什么活动, 我们常常会要求别人先看看明

天会不会出太阳或下雨, 这种情况老美他们会说, \"Why don't youcheck and see if it's sunny tomorrow?\" (你何不看看明天会不会出太阳呢?) 这里把 see ifit's sunny 改成 see if it'sgoing to rain 就变成了看看会不会下雨.

2.It's a beautiful day. 今天天气很好.

老美都是怎么形容天气很好的呢? 通常他们会用beautiful, nice 或是 lovely 来形容. 其中我最常听到的就是, \"It's a beautiful/nice/lovely day.\" 反之如果是天气很糟下大雨呢? 你可以用 \"It's nasty.\" 来形容.

但是有时候也可以用反讽的. 有一次外头下著倾盆大雨, 我和一个美国同学又正好没带伞. 结果她居然说, \"How lovely.\" (天气可真是好啊.) 当时我还正经八百地问她是否天气很差可以用 lovely 来形容, 后来我才知道原来她只不过是在讲反话, 害我有点受骗的感觉.

3. Itrained cats and dogs last night. 昨晚雨下得很大.

Rain cats and dogs 是一句非常受欢迎的俚语啦, 几乎每个在美国的外籍学生都懂得用 rain cats and dogs 来形容雨下得很大. 当然如果你不想用俚语的, 你可以单说, \"It's raining reallyhard.\" (雨下得很大) 或是, \"We're having a heavyrain.\" 同样也是雨下得很大.

那雨下得很大, 我被淋成了「落汤鸡」这整句话要怎么讲? 落汤鸡在英文里只能用\"I am soaked.\" (我湿透了) 来形容, 所以整句话就成为. \"It's raining catsand dogs out there so I am soaked.\"

4. Wehad a downpour. 我们刚遇到了一场倾盆大雨.

中文里常形容下雨像是用「倒」的一样, 这在英文里也有同样对等的字眼喔! 英文里用的是downpour 这个字. 形容下雨像是用倒的一样 (pour 单独解就是倒水的意思). 所以下雨像是用倒的我们可以说, \"We had adownpour.\"

另外有一个十分口语的, \"It's really coming down out there.\" 也是形容雨下得很大, 像是用「倒」的一样.
