上海高考英语口试应试技巧

一．第一部分快速应答

此部分主要为考察日常生活中最主要的语言功能，在历届上海高考口试中其考点一般可分为12项，这12项为：

Greetings问候

aking Introductions介绍

Saying Good-bye告别

Making Requests and Giving Instructions请求

Giving Thanks致谢

Asking for Permission允许

Showing Agreement or disagreement同意不同意

Giving Invitations发出邀请

Asking Direction问题

Expressing Good Wishes祝愿

Requesting and Offering Help请求与帮助

Making Apologies道歉

考生若要高分，则必须将这12个部分的相关表达，练习熟练，这样才能在实考中迎刃而解。例如：（在实考中，考生听见）

题目：Some of the lessons are rather dull.

考生反应：这是一个考showing agreement or

disagreement型试题，因此马上在脑海中出现这一方面的准备回答用语（已记熟） 如：That‘s sure / I agree with you. / That‘s exactly. / What I was

thinking. / I think so.

（补一句）I don‘t like the lessons at all.

I‘m tired of listening to these lessons.

结论：收集整理记忆日常生活中12类表达及相关内容是取胜该部分的关键。

二．第二部分 提问题

道正认为这部分试题主要对给定的情景进行提问（用特殊疑问句）这部分应试关键在于划分给定句子成份，针对不同成份预先设计问题，实考中将中心词摸去即可。下面举一个用名词提问方式：

例：One more underground line has been built recently in Shanghai。

分析：本句结构可分解成如下几部分。

One more underground line（主语）

思路：名词应含组成件，每一条line必有stop，因此提问：

How many stops does this new line have?

思路：并且每一条线都有终点与起点，因此提问：

Where is the terminal of this new line?

思路：第一条地铁线都有方位/方向，因此提问：

Can we go to Pudong by this new line.

其他思路：地点有无工作人员，司机若干，车票如何

总结，这一部分只要将句子任一组成部分深入展开，寻找细节，则解题方法极多。

三．口头表达

此部分占整个口试考试30%，是口试中的重点与难点，该部分应试方法主要关键在于将上海高考口试中的对应部分试题归类，然后事先可收集该分类的相关表达，便可取得高分。

根据上海道正学校对上海卷研究，一般可将试卷分成五大考点： 1．家乡问题 Describe one place of interest in your hometown.

2．有关社会问题

not?

her)?

另外，这一部分也非常像口头作文，考生可按作文模式整理思路及模型。 如题：Talk about some changes in Shanghai over the past 10 years.

思路：（上海变化）——衍化出：

1． 浦东开发The development of Pudong

5． 市容变化The city becomes more beautiful

6． 上海博物馆/大剧院the Shanghai Grand Theatre / the Shanghai

The Problem of Pollution

Pollution has become a serious problem facing everyone in the world .Many chimneys of factories often send poisonous smoke directly into the air and motorcars giving off heavy smoke can be seen everywhere in the streets. The smoke really does harm to people .But luckily, more and more people have made laws to stop the pollution. With the effort of everybody, I‘m sure that the air of the city will become purer and purer, and our life will become better and better. The advantages and Disadvantages of the Internet

Net surfers in different countries can share interesting knowledge and the latest information. Besides, Internet has provided a major opportunity to buy and sell goods. What is more, people get medical help or even vote on the Internet. Its advantages seem countless. However, there are some problems too. The Internet makes people passive and people may find that World Wide Web turns into World Wide Wait. What is worse, some children have access to the scenes of violence and sex. Apart from these, it can be affected by viruses and hackers. With proper management of the Internet people ought to experience more fruits of information revolution.

Living in the City or in the Country?

Compared with living in the city, I prefer to live in the country. Several reasons can support my opinion. First, with the development of industry, the city has been seriously polluted. Air pollution and water pollution make our daily life more and more uncomfortable, and it will do harm to our health. Secondly, living in the country provides a better sight. The green tree, grasses and large fields make the country much more beautiful and the air much fresher. So I like living in the country instead of living in the city.

Doing Something for the 2010 Expo

As all know, the 2010 Expo will be held in Shanghai. It will have a significant effect on the future of China. As a result, we should do something for the Expo. First, we should study hard, especially learning English well. In 2010, a great number of people all over the world will come to China. If we learn English well, we can understand and communicate with the foreigners more easily and it helps us to be closer to them. Second, we should pay attention to our environment to keep our country beautiful. So it can leave a deep impression on the foreigners. I‘m sure that the Expo to be held in Beijing will be successful.

Eating in Restaurant or at Home

More and more people today choose to eat in restaurants rather than at home. First eating in restaurants, we have a wide selection of food. Some dishes are too complicated to prepare at home. Second, in restaurants, we can relieve ourselves from hard work. To prepare a good meal at home is by no means an easy job. It involves buying good food from the market, washing, cooking and washing dishes etc. However, when we eat in restaurants, all the trouble is gone. Finally, when we dine in restaurants, we dine like a king or queen, while at home, we have to do everything on our own.

Do You Like Traveling?

I like traveling, especially traveling around the world. There are two main reasons for my choice. For one thing, by traveling, we can enjoy ourselves by visiting a lot of places of interest. Such as the Great wall in china, the Fu Ji Mountain in Japan, the golden beaches in Singapore, the Eiffel Tower is France and so on. In doing so, we are exposed to different histories, cultures, customs and civilizations. And this can widen our scope of knowledge. For another, traveling can relieve the stress of our busy life and bring pleasure to us. So whenever you feel unhappy, try to have3 a travel. Since traveling can give us so many benefits, it comes as no surprise that I like traveling.

The Hope Project

When we are sitting in the classroom, do you know how many other children can‘t go to school? They are forced to leave school for lack of money. So we should help them in order to let them go back to school. But as a student, what can we do for the Hope Project? It‘s easy to answer the question. Now, we have more and more pocket money. We can save some for the Hope project. And also, we can donate our pencils, pens and books to the children who can‘t go to school. We can make friends with them and encourage them not to lose heart. If everyone gives his love to the Hope Project, our society will become more beautiful..

The Importance of Enjoying Good Health

As the proverb says ‗health is above wealth, and health is happiness.‘ It‘s very important to enjoy good health. Anyone who doesn‘t have good health can‘t live happily. How to enjoy good health? In my opinion, there are at least four ways to do so. First, eat properly, be sure to have rice, vegetables, meat, fruit, egg and milk every day. Second, have a good rest. Enjoying a good sleep is also very important. Third, have sports and exercise every day, because life lies in sports. Last but not least, keep yourself relaxed. If you can follow all the directions outlined above, you are sure to enjoy good health.

Teenage Smoking

There has been an alarming increase in teenage smoking in the past 20 years. This fact has become a question that we must pay attention to. The factors for this case are complex. First, I think curiosity is the main reason. Many youngsters want to experience the pleasure of smoking when they see others doing that, and they also want to have a try, the second factor is also psychological. As the youngsters haven‘t realized the harm of taking up this habit, they only think that smoking

shows maturity. They want to be regarded as the grown-ups through smoking. For all these reasons, it comes as no surprise that teenage smoking has become a serious social problem. Water and Life

Life depends on water. So water is one of the most important things in our life. However, according to a recent survey we find water dirtier and dirtier, and even polluted by the near by factories. I can hardly imagine what the world would be if we continued to use the polluted water. On the one hand, some kinds of animals are dying out. Fish suffer from the dirty and poisonous water more directly, so we are more likely to find it difficult to see fish swimming in the river then ever before.

How to Solve the Traffic Problem

When we go out in rush hours, we are always caught in a traffic jam. Many people complain about the heavy traffic which has seriously influenced people‘s life. It has become one of the biggest problems in the big cities like Shanghai. Some suggest the government should construct more roads. In this way, the traffic density can be obviously reduced and the buses and cars can go faster. Others suggest that the number of bicycles and cars should be limited, but it is very inconvenient to people. In short, the government should develop proper traffic means and bring more benefit to people in the near future.

How to Solve the Energy Crisis

According to a recent survey, energy crisis has become one of the biggest problems in the world. If we don‘t take any measures, sooner or later we will be threatened by the energy crisis. In many countries, people who have realized the problem have suggested the governments should narrow the great drain on the country‘s resources when it isn‘t necessary enough to save the limited resources. In addition, the inhabitants and factories should limit their serious consumption of energy. The best and effective way, I think, is to develop new energy such as solar energy, unclear energy and other unknown energy.

TV and Newspaper

With the development of science and technology, TV plays an important part in our life. While it is believed that it is convenient for people to get information, I believe that newspapers are the best sources of information. It is true that TV offers us sounds and pictures. The advantages of newspapers are reflected in many aspects. For one thing, news in papers is reported in detail and we can be well-informed about what is happening of the day. For another, reading newspaper can enhance our ability to read and write. Last, we can choose what we like. In short, the newspaper is an effective means of communication.

The Relationship between Teachers and Students

As the proverb says, ―A great teacher produces a brilliant student.‖ This is unchangeable truth. In my opinion, a good relationship between teachers and students is becoming more and more important. There are several reasons for my opinion. To begin with, a good relationship between teachers and students can help us achieve the desired effect and it is an ideal pattern to all of us. Another reason is that if teachers and students cooperate well, it does good to both of them.
